Ezekiel 23
1 Yahweh said to me,
Datanglah firman TUHAN kepadaku:
2 “You human, [listen to this parable about Jerusalem and Samaria]. Once there were two women, daughters of the same mother.
"Hai anak manusia, ada dua orang perempuan, anak dari satu ibu.
3 They lived in Egypt. And from the time that they were young women, they became prostitutes. In that land, [men] fondled their breasts and caressed their bosoms [DOU].
Mereka bersundal di Mesir, mereka bersundal pada masa mudanya; di sana susunya dijamah-jamah dan dada keperawanannya dipegang-pegang.
4 The older [sister] was Oholah, and her [younger] sister was Oholibah. [It was as though] they became my [wives. Later] they gave birth to sons and daughters. Oholah represents Samaria, and Oholibah represents Jerusalem.
Nama yang tertua ialah Ohola dan nama adiknya ialah Oholiba. Mereka Aku punya dan mereka melahirkan anak-anak lelaki dan perempuan. Mengenai nama-nama mereka, Ohola ialah Samaria dan Oholiba ialah Yerusalem.
5 Oholah acted like a prostitute while she was [still] my wife. She desired to have sex with those she loved—soldiers from Assyria.
Dan Ohola berzinah, sedang ia Aku punya. Ia sangat berahi kepada kekasih-kekasihnya, kepada orang Asyur, pahlawan-pahlawan perang,
6 [Some of them] were army officers and commanders. They wore [beautiful] blue [uniforms. They were] all handsome young men. Some of them rode horses.
berpakaian kain ungu tua, bupati-bupati dan penguasa-penguasa, semuanya pemuda yang ganteng, pasukan kuda.
7 She acted like a prostitute toward all the important Assyrian officials, and became unacceptable to me by worshiping all the idols of the men she wanted to have sex with.
Ia melakukan persundalannya dengan mereka, semuanya orang Asyur pilihan; ia menajiskan dirinya dengan semua orang, kepada siapa ia berahi dan dengan berhala-berhalanya.
8 When she was a young woman in Egypt, she started being a prostitute, and [young] men caressed her breasts and had sex with her; and when she became older, she did not quit acting like a prostitute.
Ia tidak meninggalkan persundalannya yang dilakukannya sejak dari Mesir, sebab pada masa mudanya orang sudah menidurinya, dan mereka memegang-megang dada keperawanannya dan mencurahkan persundalan mereka kepadanya.
9 So I allowed the Assyrian soldiers, whom she wanted to have sex with, to capture her.
Oleh sebab itu Aku menyerahkan dia ke dalam tangan kekasih-kekasihnya, dalam tangan orang Asyur, kepada siapa ia berahi.
10 They stripped all her clothes off her. They took away her sons and daughters. And then they killed her with a sword. [Other] women started talking about what had happened to her, about how she had been punished.
Mereka menyingkapkan auratnya, anak-anaknya lelaki dan perempuan ditangkap dan ia sendiri dibunuh dengan pedang. Dengan demikian namanya dipercakapkan di antara kaum perempuan sebab hukuman telah dijatuhkan atasnya.
11 [younger] sister Oholibah saw those [that happened to Oholah], but she was a prostitute, and she desired to have sex with men more than [older] sister had desired.
Walaupun hal itu dilihat oleh adiknya, Oholiba, ia lebih berahi lagi dan persundalannya melebihi lagi dari kakaknya.
12 Oholibah [also] wanted to have sex with the Assyrian soldiers. [Some of them were] army officers and commanders. [They all] wore beautiful blue uniforms. They were all handsome young men. [Some of] them rode horses.
Ia berahi kepada orang Asyur, kepada bupati-bupati dan penguasa-penguasan kepada pahlawan-pahlawan perang yang pakaiannya sangat sempurna, kepada pasukan kuda, semuanya pemuda yang ganteng.
13 I saw what she did that caused her to became unacceptable to me, just like [older] sister.
Aku melihat bahwa ia menajiskan diri; kelakuan mereka berdua adalah sama.
14 But she did [even] worse things. She saw drawings of men from Babylonia on the walls, painted in red.
Bahkan, ia menambah persundalannya lagi: ia melihat laki-laki yang terukir pada dinding, gambar orang-orang Kasdim, diukir dalam warna linggam,
15 The [in the drawings] had belts around their waists and long turbans on their heads. They all resembled officers from Babylonia [DOU] [who rode in chariots].
pinggangnya diikat dengan ikat pinggang, kepalanya memakai serban yang berjuntai, semuanya kelihatan seperti perwira, yang menyerupai orang Babel dari Kasdim, tanah kelahiran mereka.
16 As soon as she saw those drawings, she wanted to have sex with those men, and she sent messages to them in Babylonia.
Segera sesudah kelihatan oleh matanya ia berahi kepada mereka dan mengirim suruhan kepada mereka ke tanah Kasdim.
17 Then the soldiers from Babylonia came to her, they lay in bed with her, and they had sex with her. Then she became disgusted with them and turned away from them.
Maka orang Babel datang kepadanya menikmati tempat tidur percintaan dan menajiskan dia dengan persundalan mereka; sesudah ia menjadi najis oleh mereka, ia meronta dari mereka.
18 But when she continued to openly/boldly act like a prostitute [DOU], I became disgusted with her, and I rejected her like I had rejected [older] sister.
Oleh karena ia melakukan persundalannya dengan terang-terangan dan memperlihatkan sendiri auratnya, maka Aku menjauhkan diri karena jijik dari padanya, seperti Aku menjauhkan diri dari adiknya.
19 But she became even more immoral, as she remembered when she was a young woman who was a prostitute in Egypt.
Ia melakukan lebih banyak lagi persundalannya sambil teringat kepada masa mudanya, waktu ia bersundal di tanah Mesir.
20 There she wanted to have sex with those who loved her, whose genitals were [very long], like [SIM] those of donkeys, and whose sexual emissions were huge, [like] those of horses.
Ia berahi kepada kawan-kawannya bersundal, yang auratnya seperti aurat keledai dan zakarnya seperti zakar kuda.
21 So she desired to be immoral like she was when she was young, when men in Egypt caressed her bosom and fondled her breasts.”
Engkau menginginkan kemesuman masa mudamu, waktu orang Mesir memegang-megang dadamu dan menjamah-jamah susu kegadisanmu.
22 “[represents you people of Jerusalem]. Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘I will cause those [soldiers] who loved you but whom you turned away from because you became disgusted with them, to be angry with you. I will cause them to come and attack you from every side—
Oleh sebab itu, hai Oholiba, beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH, memang engkau sudah menjauhkan dirimu dari kekasih-kekasihmu, tetapi sungguh, Aku akan menyuruh mereka bergerak melawan engkau; Aku akan membawa mereka melawan engkau dari sekitarmu:
23 soldiers from Babylon and all the other places in Babylonia, [their allies] from Pekod and Shoa and [regions], and all the army of Assyria. [Yes], all of them are handsome young men, army officers and commanders, officers who ride in chariots, all riding on horses.
orang Babel dan semua orang Kasdim, orang Pekod, orang Soa dan orang Koa, dan semua orang Asyur bersama mereka, pemuda yang ganteng, bupati-bupati dan para penguasa semuanya, perwira-perwira dan pahlawan-pahlawan perang, pasukan kuda semuanya.
24 Their huge army will attack you with weapons, riding in chariots and pulling wagons [that will carry their army supplies]. They will surround you, carrying large and small shields, and wearing helmets. I will allow them to capture you and punish you in the way that they [always] [their enemies].
Mereka datang melawan engkau dengan banyak kereta dan roda-roda dan dengan sekumpulan bangsa-bangsa; mereka akan menyusun perisai besar dan kecil dan ketopong di sekitarmu melawan engkau, dan Aku akan menyerahkan perkara ini di hadapannya dan mereka akan menghakimi engkau menurut hukum mereka.
25 Because I am very angry with you, I will cause them to act [very] furiously toward you. They will cut off your noses and your ears. Then, those who are still alive, they will kill with their swords. They will take away your sons and daughters, and a fire will burn up those who remain alive.
Aku akan membalaskan cemburuan-Ku kepadamu, sehingga mereka memperlakukan engkau dengan kemurkaan, hidung dan telingamu akan dikerat dan sisamu akan mati rebah oleh pedang. Mereka akan menangkap anak-anakmu lelaki dan perempuan dan sisamu akan dimakan api.
26 They will strip off your clothes and your fine jewelry and take them away.
Mereka akan menelanjangi engkau dan merampas perhiasan-perhiasanmu.
27 In that way, I will stop all the immoral behavior that began when you became a prostitute in Egypt. You will no longer desire to do those things, or think [what you did in] Egypt.’
Aku akan membuat engkau menghentikan kemesumanmu dan persundalanmu sejak dari tanah Mesir, sehingga engkau tidak lagi melirik kepada mereka dan tidak lagi mengingat-ingat orang Mesir.
28 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord say: ‘I am about to allow those whom you hate, those you became disgusted with and turned away from, to capture you.
Sebab beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Lihat, Aku akan menyerahkan engkau ke dalam tangan orang yang kaubenci, walaupun engkau sudah menjauhkan diri dari mereka.
29 They will be cruel and take away everything that you have worked hard to acquire. They will leave you completely naked [DOU], and everyone will see that you truly are a prostitute.
Mereka akan memperlakukan engkau dengan kebencian dan akan merampas segala hasil jerih payahmu dan meninggalkan engkau telanjang bugil, sehingga aurat persundalanmu kelihatan. Kemesumanmu dan persundalanmu
30 It is because of what you have done that you will be punished like that; you have been an immoral prostitute; you have had sex with men of other nations, and you have caused yourselves to become unacceptable to me [worshiping] their idols.
mendatangkan hal ini atasmu, karena engkau bersundal dengan mengandalkan bangsa-bangsa dan menajiskan dirimu dengan berhala-berhala mereka.
31 You have behaved [the people of Samaria, who are like] your [older] sister. So I will cause you to be punished [MET] like they were punished.’
Engkau hidup mengikuti kelakuan kakakmu, sebab itu Aku akan memberi engkau minum dari pialanya.
32 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘[You will suffer like people suffer when they drink from a cup a lot of strong alcoholic drink]: [It will be as though] you will drink from the cup that the people of Samaria drank from; a big and tall cup. Because of your drinking what is in that cup, many people will scorn you and make fun of you because there is a lot of liquid in that cup.
Beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Engkau harus minum dari piala kakakmu, piala yang dalam dan lebar mulutnya, yaitu piala yang banyak isinya; menjadi tertawaan dan olok-olok engkau.
33 When you become very drunk, you will become very sad, [drinking what is in] that cup [MTY] will cause you to become ruined and deserted, like what happened [MET] to [the people of] Samaria, [who are like] [MET] your sister.
Engkau akan penuh kemabukan dan dukacita. Piala kengerian disertai kesunyian ialah piala kakakmu Samaria.
34 You will drink all the liquid that is in that cup; then you will break that cup into pieces [use those pieces to] gash/cut your [because you will be very sad].’ [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.
Engkau meminumnya beserta ampasnya, sampai mengunggis pecahan-pecahannya dan engkau merabitkan susumu. Sebab Aku yang mengatakannya, demikianlah firman Tuhan ALLAH.
35 Therefore, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘Because you have forgotten me and rejected me [IDM], you must be punished for your immoral behavior and for [like] a prostitute.’”
Oleh sebab itu, beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: Oleh karena engkau melupakan Aku dan membelakangi Aku, sekarang tanggung sendirilah kemesumanmu dan persundalanmu."
36 Yahweh said to me, “You human, you must [RHQ] [the people of those two cities represented by] Oholah and Oholibah. You must remind them of their detestable behavior:
Lalu TUHAN berfirman kepadaku: "Hai anak manusia, maukah engkau menghakimi Ohola dan Oholiba dan memberitahukan kepada mereka perbuatan-perbuatannya yang keji?
37 [It is as though the people of those cities] have committed adultery and have murdered [MTY] people. They have been unfaithful to me by [worshiping] idols. They have even sacrificed their own children, who belonged to me, to be food for their idols.
Sebab mereka berzinah, tangan mereka berlumuran darah dan mereka berzinah dengan menyembah berhala-berhalanya, bahkan anak-anak lelaki mereka yang dilahirkan bagi-Ku dipersembahkannya sebagai korban dalam api kepada berhala-berhalanya menjadi makanan.
38 They have done [disgraceful things]: They have caused my temple to be an unacceptable place for worship, and have not respected the Sabbath days.
Selain itu hal ini juga mereka lakukan terhadap Aku, mereka menajiskan tempat kudus-Ku pada hari itu dan melanggar kekudusan hari-hari Sabat-Ku.
39 On the same day that they sacrificed their children to their idols, they entered my temple, which caused it to be an unacceptable place for worshiping me.
Dan sedang mereka menyembelih anak-anak mereka untuk berhala-berhalanya, mereka datang pada hari itu ke tempat kudus-Ku dan melanggar kekudusannya. Sungguh, inilah yang dilakukan mereka di dalam rumah-Ku.
40 They sent messages to men [in countries] far away. And when those men arrived, [the women of those two cities] bathed themselves for them, painted their eyebrows, and put on jewelry.
Tambahan lagi mereka meminta orang-orang datang dari tempat yang jauh dengan menyuruh suruhan memanggil mereka, dan sungguh, mereka datang. Demi kedatangan mereka engkau mandi bersih-bersih, mencalak alismu dan menghias dirimu dengan perhiasan-perhiasan.
41 They sat on a beautiful couch, with a table in front of it on which they had put incense and [olive] oil that belonged to me.
Engkau duduk di tempat tidur yang serba indah dan di hadapannya meja dengan hidangan yang disajikan; di atas tempat tidurmu itu kautaruh ukupan-Ku dan minyak-Ku.
42 Soon there was a noisy crowd around them. Among the crowd there were men from Sheba who had come from the [of Arabia]. They put bracelets on the arms of the [two] sisters and put beautiful crowns on their heads.
Lalu kedengaranlah suara keramaian hidup bersenang-senang padanya dan kepada orang-orang dari orang banyak ditambahkan lagi pemabuk-pemabuk dari padang gurun. Mereka mengenakan gelang pada tangannya dan mahkota kemuliaan di atas kepalanya.
43 Then I said about the woman who had become exhausted by her having sex with many men, ‘Now allow those men to act toward her as though she is a prostitute, because that is all that she is.’
Aku berkata: Apakah bunga yang layu ini masih melakukan perzinahan? Orang bersundal dengan dia, bahkan dengan dia.
44 So they had sex [EUP] with those two women, Oholah and Oholibah, like men have sex with prostitutes.
Mereka datang kepadanya seperti orang mendatangi perempuan sundal. Demikianlah mereka datang kepada Ohola dan Oholiba untuk melakukan kemesuman.
45 But righteous men will condemn them to be punished, like women who commit adultery and who murder others are punished, because those women commit adultery and they murder [MTY] others.
Tetapi orang-orang yang benar saleh akan menghakimi mereka seperti orang menghakimi perempuan-perempuan yang berzinah dan yang menumpahkan darah, sebab mereka adalah perempuan-perempuan berzinah dan tangan mereka berlumuran darah."
46 So this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: Bring a mob to attack Samaria and Jerusalem, and allow that mob to cause the people of those cities to be terrified, and to rob them.
Sebab beginilah firman Tuhan ALLAH: "Biarlah bangkit sekumpulan orang melawan mereka dan biarkanlah mereka menjadi kengerian dan rampasan.
47 The mob will throw stones at [to kill them]; they will cut them into pieces with their swords, they will kill their sons and daughters, and burn down their houses.
Kumpulan orang ini akan melontari mereka dengan batu dan memancung mereka dengan pedangnya, membunuh anak-anak lelaki dan anak-anak perempuan mereka dan membakar habis rumah-rumah mereka.
48 In that way I will cause them to stop their immoral behavior. It will warn other women to not imitate/do what you people of Jerusalem are doing.
Aku akan menghentikan kemesuman di tanah itu dan semua kaum perempuan akan memperhatikan peringatan itu dan tidak akan melakukan kemesuman lagi seperti yang kamu lakukan.
49 [people of Jerusalem] will be punished for your immoral behavior and for your worshiping idols. Then you will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Orang akan membalaskan kemesumanmu atasmu dan kamu harus menanggung dosa-dosamu lantaran kamu menyembah berhala-berhala. Dan kamu akan mengetahui bahwa Akulah Tuhan ALLAH."
