< Ezekiel 28 >
1 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
Maka datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
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—
"Hai anak manusia, katakanlah kepada raja Tirus: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Karena engkau menjadi tinggi hati, dan berkata: Aku adalah Allah! Aku duduk di takhta Allah di tengah-tengah lautan. Padahal engkau adalah manusia, bukanlah Allah, walau hatimu menempatkan diri sama dengan Allah.
3 look, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that is hidden from you;
Memang hikmatmu melebihi hikmat Daniel; tiada rahasia yang terlindung bagimu.
4 by your wisdom and by your understanding you have gotten yourself riches, and have gotten gold and silver into your treasures;
Dengan hikmatmu dan pengertianmu engkau memperoleh kekayaan. Emas dan perak kaukumpulkan dalam perbendaharaanmu.
5 by your great wisdom and by your traffic you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches"—
Karena engkau sangat pandai berdagang engkau memperbanyak kekayaanmu, dan karena itu engkau jadi sombong.
6 therefore thus says the LORD: "Because you have set your heart as the heart of God,
Oleh sebab itu beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Karena hatimu menempatkan diri sama dengan Allah
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.
maka, sungguh, Aku membawa orang asing melawan engkau, yaitu bangsa yang paling ganas, yang akan menghunus pedang mereka, melawan hikmatmu yang terpuja; dan semarakmu dinajiskan.
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.
Engkau diturunkannya ke lobang kubur, engkau mati seperti orang yang mati terbunuh di tengah lautan.
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.
Apakah engkau masih akan mengatakan di hadapan pembunuhmu: Aku adalah Allah!? Padahal terhadap kuasa penikammu engkau adalah manusia, bukanlah Allah.
10 You shall die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it," says the LORD.'"
Engkau akan mati seperti orang tak bersunat oleh tangan orang asing. Sebab Aku yang mengatakannya, demikianlah firman Tuhan ALLAH."
11 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Lalu datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
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.
"Hai anak manusia, ucapkanlah suatu ratapan mengenai raja Tirus dan katakanlah kepadanya: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Gambar dari kesempurnaan engkau, penuh hikmat dan maha indah.
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.
Engkau di taman Eden, yaitu taman Allah penuh segala batu permata yang berharga: yaspis merah, krisolit dan yaspis hijau, permata pirus, krisopras dan nefrit, lazurit, batu darah dan malakit. Tempat tatahannya diperbuat dari emas dan disediakan pada hari penciptaanmu.
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.
Kuberikan tempatmu dekat kerub yang berjaga, di gunung kudus Allah engkau berada dan berjalan-jalan di tengah batu-batu yang bercahaya-cahaya.
15 You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, until unrighteousness was found in you.
Engkau tak bercela di dalam tingkah lakumu sejak hari penciptaanmu sampai terdapat kecurangan padamu.
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.
Dengan dagangmu yang besar engkau penuh dengan kekerasan dan engkau berbuat dosa. Maka Kubuangkan engkau dari gunung Allah dan kerub yang berjaga membinasakan engkau dari tengah batu-batu yang bercahaya.
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.
Engkau sombong karena kecantikanmu, hikmatmu kaumusnahkan demi semarakmu. Ke bumi kau Kulempar, kepada raja-raja engkau Kuserahkan menjadi tontonan bagi matanya.
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.
Dengan banyaknya kesalahanmu dan kecurangan dalam dagangmu engkau melanggar kekudusan tempat kudusmu. Maka Aku menyalakan api dari tengahmu yang akan memakan habis engkau. Dan Kubiarkan engkau menjadi abu di atas bumi di hadapan semua yang melihatmu.
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."'"
Semua di antara bangsa-bangsa yang mengenal engkau kaget melihat keadaanmu. Akhir hidupmu mendahsyatkan dan lenyap selamanya engkau."
20 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Lalu datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
21 "Son of man, set your face toward Sidon, and prophesy against it,
"Hai anak manusia, tujukanlah mukamu kepada Sidon dan bernubuatlah melawan dia
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.
dan katakanlah: Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Lihat, Aku menjadi lawanmu, hai Sidon, dan Aku menyatakan kemuliaan-Ku di tengah-tengahmu. Dan mereka akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah TUHAN, pada saat Aku menjatuhkan hukuman atasnya dan menunjukkan kekudusan-Ku terhadap dia.
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.
Aku akan mendatangkan sampar atasnya dan darah akan mengalir di jalan-jalannya dan orang-orang akan mati rebah di tengah-tengahnya karena pedang yang datang dari sekitarnya melawan dia. Dan mereka akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah TUHAN.
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.'
Dan tidak akan ada lagi bagi kaum Israel dari semua tetangganya yang menghina mereka, menjadi duri yang menusuk atau onak yang memedihkan. Dan mereka akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah Tuhan ALLAH.
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.
Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Pada saat Aku mengumpulkan kaum Israel dari tengah suku-suku bangsa, di mana mereka berserak dan Aku menunjukkan kekudusan-Ku kepada mereka di hadapan bangsa-bangsa, maka mereka akan diam di tanah mereka yang telah Kuberikan kepada hamba-Ku Yakub.
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.'"
Mereka akan diam di sana dengan aman tenteram, mereka akan membangun rumah dan membuat kebun anggur. Ya, mereka akan diam dengan aman tenteram pada saat Aku menjatuhkan hukuman atas semua tetangganya yang menghina mereka. Dan mereka akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah TUHAN, Allah mereka."
