< Ezekiel 2 >

1 He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you."
ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي: «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، قِفْ عَلَى قَدَمَيْكَ فَأُخَاطِبَكَ».١
2 The Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.
وَحَالَمَا تَكَلَّمَ دَخَلَ فِيَّ الرُّوحُ وَأَنْهَضَنِي عَلَى قَدَمَيَّ وَسَمِعْتُهُ يُخَاطِبُنِي:٢
3 He said to me, "Son of man, I send you to the house of Israel, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.
«يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، هَا أَنَا بَاعِثُكَ إِلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِلَى أُمَّةٍ مُتَمَرِّدَةٍ عَصَتْنِي، إِذْ تَعَدَّوْا هُمْ وَآبَاؤُهُمْ عَلَيَّ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ.٣
4 The children are obstinate and hardhearted. I am sending you to them, and you shall tell them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD.'
أَنَا بَاعِثُكَ إِلَى الأَبْنَاءِ الْمُتَصَلِّبِينَ الْقُسَاةِ، فَتَقُولُ لَهُمْ: هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ.٤
5 They, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house), yet shall know that there has been a prophet among them.
فَإِنْ سَمِعُوا، أَوْ أَبَوْا لأَنَّهُمْ شَعْبٌ عَاصٍ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ عَلَى الأَقَلِّ أَنَّ نَبِيًّا بَيْنَهُمْ.٥
6 You, son of man, do not be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you do dwell among scorpions: do not be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
أَمَّا أَنْتَ، يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، فَلا تَرْهَبْهُمْ وَلا تَخْشَ كَلامَهُمْ، وَإِنْ كَانُوا لَكَ قَرِيساً وَشَوْكاً. وَأَنْتَ سَاكِنٌ بَيْنَ عَقَارِبَ، فَلا تَرْهَبْ كَلامَهُمْ، وَلا تَفْزَعْ مِنْ مَحْضَرِهِمْ لأَنَّهُمْ شَعْبٌ مُتَمَرِّدٌ.٦
7 You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.
إِنَّمَا عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تُبَلِّغَهُمْ كَلامِي سَوَاءٌ سَمِعُوا أَوْ أَبَوْا، لأَنَّهُمْ شَعْبٌ مُتَمَرِّدٌ.٧
8 But you, son of man, hear what I tell you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat that which I give you."
وَالآنَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، أَصْغِ لِمَا أُخَاطِبُكَ بِهِ. لَا تَكُنْ مُتَمَرِّداً مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ الشَّعْبِ الْمُتَمَرِّدِ. افْتَحْ فَمَكَ وَكُلْ مَا أُطْعِمُكَ».٨
9 When I looked, look, a hand was put forth to me; and, look, a written scroll was in it.
فَنَظَرْتُ وَإذَا بِيَدٍ مُمْتَدَّةٍ إِلَيَّ، وَفِيهَا دَرْجُ كِتَابٍ.٩
10 He spread it before me: and it was written within and without; and there were written in it lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
وَعِنْدَمَا نَشَرَهُ أَمَامِي رَأَيْتُ الْكِتَابَةَ تَمْلَؤُهُ مِنَ الدَّاخِلِ وَالْخَارِجِ وَقَدْ دُوِّنَتْ فِيهِ مَرَاثٍ وَمَنَاحَاتٌ وَوَيْلاتٌ.١٠
