Ezekiel 28

1 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,

١ وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:

2 "Son of man, tell the prince of Tyre, 'Thus says the LORD: "Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, 'I am a god, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas'; yet you are man, and not God, though you set your heart as the heart of God—

٢ «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لِمَلِكِ صُورَ، هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: لأَنَّكَ تَكَبَّرْتَ وَقُلْتَ: أَنَا إِلَهٌ، وَأَتَرَبَّعُ فِي مَجْلِسِ الآلِهَةِ، فِي قَلْبِ الْبِحَارِ؛ مَعَ أَنَّكَ إِنْسَانٌ وَلَسْتَ إِلَهاً، وَإِنْ ظَنَنْتَ أَنَّ لَدَيْكَ حِكْمَةَ الآلِهَةِ!

3 look, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that is hidden from you;

٣ هَا أَنْتَ أَحْكَمُ مِنْ دَانِيالَ وَلا يَخْفَى عَلَيْكَ سِرٌّ.

4 by your wisdom and by your understanding you have gotten yourself riches, and have gotten gold and silver into your treasures;

٤ قَدِ اسْتَحْوَذْتَ بِحِكْمَتِكَ وَفَهْمِكَ عَلَى الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَادَّخَرْتَهَا فِي خَزَائِنِكَ،

5 by your great wisdom and by your traffic you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches"—

٥ وَبِمَهَارَتِكَ الْعَظِيمَةِ فِي التِّجَارَةِ ضَاعَفْتَ ثَرْوَتَكَ، فَتَكَبَّرَ قَلْبُكَ لِفَرْطِ غِنَاكَ.

6 therefore thus says the LORD: "Because you have set your heart as the heart of God,

٦ لِذَلِكَ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: لأَنَّكَ ظَنَنْتَ أَنَّ لَدَيْكَ حِكْمَةَ الآلِهَةِ،

7 therefore, look, I will bring strangers on you, the terrible of the nations; and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they shall defile your brightness.

٧ هَا أَنَا أُثِيرُ عَلَيْكَ غُرَبَاءَ مِنْ أَعْتَى الأُمَمِ، فَيُجَرِّدُونَ سُيُوفَهُمْ عَلَى بَهَاءِ حِكْمَتِكَ، وَيُدَنِّسُونَ جَمَالَكَ.

8 They shall bring you down to the pit; and you shall die the death of those who are slain, in the heart of the seas.

٨ يَطْرَحُونَكَ إِلَى الْهَاوِيَةِ فَتَمُوتُ مَوْتَ الْقَتْلَى فِي أَعْمَاقِ الْبِحَارِ.

9 Will you yet say before him who kills you, 'I am a god'? But you are a man, and not a god, in the hand of him who wounds you.

٩ أَتَظَلُّ تَقُولُ أَنَئِذٍ أَمَامَ قَاتِلِكَ: أَنَا إِلَهٌ؟ أَنْتَ إِنْسَانٌ لَا إِلَهٌ فِي قَبْضَةِ ذَابِحِيكَ.

10 You shall die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it," says the LORD.'"

١٠ فَتَلْقَى حَتْفَكَ كَالْغُلْفِ بِيَدِ الْغُرَبَاءِ، لأَنِّي أَنَا قَضَيْتُ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ».

11 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

١١ وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:

12 "Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and tell him, 'Thus says the LORD: "You seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

١٢ «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، انْدُبْ مَلِكَ صُورَ بِمَرْثَاةٍ وَقُلْ لَهُ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: كُنْتَ خَاتِمَ الْكَمَالِ، مُفْعَماً بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَكَامِلَ الْجَمَالِ.

13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and beryl. Gold work of tambourines and of pipes was in you. In the day that you were created they were prepared.

١٣ كُنْتَ فِي جَنَّةِ اللهِ عَدْنٍ، حِجَابُكَ كُلُّ حَجَرٍ كَرِيمٍ: عَقِيقٌ أَحْمَرُ وَيَاقُوتٌ أَصْفَرُ وَعَقِيقٌ أَبْيَضُ وَزَبَرْجَدٌ وَجَزْعٌ وَيَشْبٌ وَيَاقُوتٌ أَزْرَقُ وَبَهْرَمَانُ وَزُمُرُّدٌ وَذَهَبٌ. صَاغُوا مِنْهُ بُيُوتَ حِجَارَتِكَ الْكَرِيمَةِ وَتَرْصِيعَاتِكَ يَوْمَ خُلِقْتَ.

14 You were the anointed cherub who covers: and I set you, so that you were on the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

١٤ وَمَسَحْتُكَ لِتَكُونَ الْكَرُوبِيمَ الْمُظَلِّلَ وَأَقَمْتُكَ عَلَى جَبَلِ اللهِ الْمُقَدَّسِ، وَتَمَشَّيْتَ بَيْنَ حِجَارَةِ النَّارِ.

15 You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, until unrighteousness was found in you.

١٥ كُنْتَ كَامِلاً فِي طُرُقِكَ مُنْذُ يَوْمَ خُلِقْتَ إِلَى أَنْ وُجِدَ فِيكَ إِثْمٌ.

16 By the abundance of your traffic they filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned: therefore I have cast you as profane out of the mountain of God; and I have destroyed you, covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

١٦ إِنَّمَا بِسَبَبِ كَثْرَةِ تِجَارَتِكَ امْتَلأَ دَاخِلُكَ ظُلْماً، فَأَخْطَأْتَ. لِهَذَا أَطْرَحُكَ مِنْ جَبَلِ اللهِ كَشَيْءٍ نَجِسٍ، وَأُبِيدُكَ أَيُّهَا الْكَرُوبُ الْمُظَلِّلُ مِنْ بَيْنِ حِجَارَةِ النَّارِ.

17 Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness: I have cast you to the ground; I have laid you before kings, that they may see you.

١٧ قَدْ تَكَبَّرَ قَلْبُكَ بِسَبَبِ بَهَائِكَ، وَأَفْسَدْتَ حِكْمَتَكَ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ جَلالِكَ. سَأُلْقِي بِكَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ أَمَامَ الْمُلُوكِ لِتَكُونَ عُرْضَةً لِعُيُونِهِمِ الْهَازِئَةِ.

18 By the multitude of your iniquities, in the unrighteousness of your traffic, you have profaned your sanctuaries; therefore have I brought forth a fire from the midst of you; it has devoured you, and I have turned you to ashes on the earth in the sight of all those who see you.

١٨ قَدْ نَجَّسْتَ مَقَادِسَكَ بِفَرْطِ آثَامِكَ وَتِجَارَتِكَ الظَّالِمَةِ. لِذَلِكَ أَجْعَلُ النَّارَ تَنْدَلِعُ مِنْ وَسَطِكَ فَتَلْتَهِمُكَ، وَأُحَوِّلُكَ إِلَى رَمَادٍ عَلَى الأَرْضِ أَمَامَ كُلِّ مَنْ يَرَاكَ.

19 All those who know you among the peoples shall be astonished at you: you have become a terror, and you shall nevermore have any being."'"

١٩ فَيَتَحَيَّرُ لِمَا أَصَابَكَ جَمِيعُ الَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَكَ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ، إِذْ تَحُلُّ بِكَ الأَهْوَالُ وَلا يَبْقَى مِنْكَ أَثَرٌ».

20 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,

٢٠ وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:

21 "Son of man, set your face toward Sidon, and prophesy against it,

٢١ «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، الْتَفِتْ بِوَجْهِكَ نَحْوَ صَيْدُونَ وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهَا.

22 and say, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I am against you, Sidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of you;" and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.

٢٢ وَقُلْ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أَنْقَلِبُ عَلَيْكِ يَا صيْدُونُ وَأَتَجَلَّى بِمَجْدِي فِيكِ فَيُدْرِكُ سُكَّانُكِ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ حِينَ أُنَفِّذُ فِيكِ أَحْكَاماً وَأَتَقَدَّسُ فِي وَسَطِكِ.

23 For I will send pestilence into her, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall fall in the midst of her, with the sword on her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

٢٣ أَجْعَلُ الْوَبَأَ يَتَفَشَّى فِيكِ وَتُسْفَكُ دِمَاءٌ فِي أَزِقَّتِكِ، وَيَتَسَاقَطُ فِي وَسَطِكِ جَرْحَى السَّيْفِ الَّذِي يُحْدِقُ بِكِ مِنْ كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ.

24 "'There shall be no more a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor a hurting thorn of any that are around them, that scorned them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'

٢٤ فَلا يَتَعَرَّضُ شَعْبُ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى وَخَزَاتِ الْعُلَّيْقِ وَلا إلَى شَوْكَةٍ مُؤْذِيَةٍ مِنَ الأُمَمِ الْمُحِيطَةِ بِهِمْ مِمَّنْ تُبْغِضُهُمْ، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ.

25 "Thus says the LORD: 'When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the nations, then shall they dwell in their own land which I gave to my servant Jacob.

٢٥ وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: عِنْدَمَا أَجْمَعُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الشُّعُوبِ الَّتِي تَفَرَّقُوا إِلَيْهَا، وَتَتَجَلَّى قَدَاسَتِي فِيهِمْ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ، عِنْدَمَا يَعُودُونَ وَيَسْتَوْطِنُونَ فِي أَرْضِهِمِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتُهَا لِعَبْدِي يَعْقُوبَ،

26 They shall dwell securely in it; yes, they shall build houses, and plant vineyards, and shall dwell securely, when I have executed judgments on all those who do them despite all around them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.'"

٢٦ وَيُقِيمُونَ فِيهَا مُطْمَئِنِّينَ وَيُشَيِّدُونَ بُيُوتاً وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُوماً وَيَسْكُنُونَ آمِنِينَ. وَعِنْدَمَا أُنَفِّذُ أَحْكَاماً فِي جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِهِمِ الْمُحِيطِينَ بِهِمْ، عِنْدَئِذٍ يُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُهُمْ».
