Ezekiel 26
1 So it was in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, that the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
| וַיְהִ֛י בְּעַשְׁתֵּֽי־עֶשְׂרֵ֥ה שָׁנָ֖ה בְּאֶחָ֣ד לַחֹ֑דֶשׁ הָיָ֥ה דְבַר־יְהוָ֖ה אֵלַ֥י לֵאמֹֽר׃ |
2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, 'Aha! The gates of the people are broken! She has turned to me; I will be filled up because she is ruined.'
| בֶּן־אָדָ֗ם יַ֠עַן אֲשֶׁר־אָ֨מְרָה צֹּ֤ר עַל־יְרוּשָׁלַ֙͏ִם֙ הֶאָ֔ח נִשְׁבְּרָ֛ה דַּלְתֹ֥ות הָעַמִּ֖ים נָסֵ֣בָּה אֵלָ֑י אִמָּלְאָ֖ה הָחֳרָֽבָה׃ |
3 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says this, 'Behold! I am against you, Tyre, and I will raise up many nations against you like the sea raises its waves.
| לָכֵ֗ן כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה הִנְנִ֥י עָלַ֖יִךְ צֹ֑ר וְהַעֲלֵיתִ֤י עָלַ֙יִךְ֙ גֹּויִ֣ם רַבִּ֔ים כְּהַעֲלֹ֥ות הַיָּ֖ם לְגַלָּֽיו׃ |
4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre and tear down her towers. I will sweep her dust away and make her like a bare rock.
| וְשִׁחֲת֞וּ חֹמֹ֣ות צֹ֗ר וְהָֽרְסוּ֙ מִגְדָּלֶ֔יהָ וְסִֽחֵיתִ֥י עֲפָרָ֖הּ מִמֶּ֑נָּה וְנָתַתִּ֥י אֹותָ֖הּ לִצְחִ֥יחַ סָֽלַע׃ |
5 She will become a place for nets to dry out in the midst of the sea, since I have declared it—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—and she will become plunder for the nations.
| מִשְׁטַ֨ח חֲרָמִ֤ים תִּֽהְיֶה֙ בְּתֹ֣וךְ הַיָּ֔ם כִּ֚י אֲנִ֣י דִבַּ֔רְתִּי נְאֻ֖ם אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֑ה וְהָיְתָ֥ה לְבַ֖ז לַגֹּויִֽם׃ |
6 Her daughters who are in the fields will be slaughtered by the swords, and they will know that I am Yahweh.'
| וּבְנֹותֶ֙יהָ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בַּשָּׂדֶ֔ה בַּחֶ֖רֶב תֵּהָרַ֑גְנָה וְיָדְע֖וּ כִּי־אֲנִ֥י יְהוָֽה׃ פ |
7 For this is what Yahweh says: Behold, from the north I am bringing Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, against Tyre, with horses and chariots, and with horsemen and a great many people.
| כִּ֣י כֹ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה הִנְנִ֧י מֵבִ֣יא אֶל־צֹ֗ר נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּ֧ר מֶֽלֶךְ־בָּבֶ֛ל מִצָּפֹ֖ון מֶ֣לֶךְ מְלָכִ֑ים בְּס֛וּס וּבְרֶ֥כֶב וּבְפָרָשִׁ֖ים וְקָהָ֥ל וְעַם־רָֽב׃ |
8 He will kill your daughters in the field. He will set up a siege work and build a ramp against your walls and raise up shields against you.
| בְּנֹותַ֥יִךְ בַּשָּׂדֶ֖ה בַּחֶ֣רֶב יַהֲרֹ֑ג וְנָתַ֨ן עָלַ֜יִךְ דָּיֵ֗ק וְשָׁפַ֤ךְ עָלַ֙יִךְ֙ סֹֽלְלָ֔ה וְהֵקִ֥ים עָלַ֖יִךְ צִנָּֽה׃ |
9 He will place his battering rams to hit against your walls, and his tools will tear down your towers.
| וּמְחִ֣י קָֽבָלֹּ֔ו יִתֵּ֖ן בְּחֹֽמֹותָ֑יִךְ וּמִ֨גְדְּלֹתַ֔יִךְ יִתֹּ֖ץ בְּחַרְבֹותָֽיו׃ |
10 His horses will be so many that their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake with the sound of horsemen, wagons, and chariots. When he enters your gates, he will enter as men come into a city whose walls have been broken down.
| מִשִּׁפְעַ֥ת סוּסָ֖יו יְכַסֵּ֣ךְ אֲבָקָ֑ם מִקֹּול֩ פָּרַ֨שׁ וְגַלְגַּ֜ל וָרֶ֗כֶב תִּרְעַ֙שְׁנָה֙ חֹֽומֹותַ֔יִךְ בְּבֹאֹו֙ בִּשְׁעָרַ֔יִךְ כִּמְבֹואֵ֖י עִ֥יר מְבֻקָּעָֽה׃ |
11 The hooves of his horses will trample all of your streets. He will kill your people with the sword and your mighty stone pillars will fall to the ground.
| בְּפַרְסֹ֣ות סוּסָ֔יו יִרְמֹ֖ס אֶת־כָּל־חֽוּצֹותָ֑יִךְ עַמֵּךְ֙ בַּחֶ֣רֶב יַהֲרֹ֔ג וּמַצְּבֹ֥ות עֻזֵּ֖ךְ לָאָ֥רֶץ תֵּרֵֽד׃ |
12 They will plunder your riches and loot your merchandise. They will tear down your walls and destroy your luxurious homes. Your stones, your timber, and the rubble they will throw into the waters.
| וְשָׁלְל֣וּ חֵילֵ֗ךְ וּבָֽזְזוּ֙ רְכֻלָּתֵ֔ךְ וְהָֽרְסוּ֙ חֹומֹותַ֔יִךְ וּבָתֵּ֥י חֶמְדָּתֵ֖ךְ יִתֹּ֑צוּ וַאֲבָנַ֤יִךְ וְעֵצַ֙יִךְ֙ וַֽעֲפָרֵ֔ךְ בְּתֹ֥וךְ מַ֖יִם יָשִֽׂימוּ׃ |
13 I will stop the noise of your songs. The sound of your harps will be heard no more.
| וְהִשְׁבַּתִּ֖י הֲמֹ֣ון שִׁירָ֑יִךְ וְקֹ֣ול כִּנֹּורַ֔יִךְ לֹ֥א יִשָּׁמַ֖ע עֹֽוד׃ |
14 I will make you a bare rock, you will become a place where nets are spread out to dry. You will never be built again, for I, Lord Yahweh have spoken—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
| וּנְתַתִּ֞יךְ לִצְחִ֣יחַ סֶ֗לַע מִשְׁטַ֤ח חֲרָמִים֙ תִּֽהְיֶ֔ה לֹ֥א תִבָּנֶ֖ה עֹ֑וד כִּ֣י אֲנִ֤י יְהוָה֙ דִּבַּ֔רְתִּי נְאֻ֖ם אֲדֹנָ֥י יְהוִֽה׃ ס |
15 The Lord Yahweh says this to Tyre, 'Will not the islands quake with the sound of your downfall, and with the groans of the wounded when the terrible slaughter is in your midst?
| כֹּ֥ה אָמַ֛ר אֲדֹנָ֥י יְהוִ֖ה לְצֹ֑ור הֲלֹ֣א ׀ מִקֹּ֣ול מַפַּלְתֵּ֗ךְ בֶּאֱנֹ֨ק חָלָ֜ל בֵּהָ֤רֵֽג הֶ֙רֶג֙ בְּתֹוכֵ֔ךְ יִרְעֲשׁ֖וּ הָאִיִּֽים׃ |
16 Then all the princes of the sea will step down from their thrones and remove their robes and cast off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling, they will sit on the ground and tremble every moment, and they will be appalled because of you.
| וֽ͏ְיָרְד֞וּ מֵעַ֣ל כִּסְאֹותָ֗ם כֹּ֚ל נְשִׂיאֵ֣י הַיָּ֔ם וְהֵסִ֙ירוּ֙ אֶת־מְעִ֣ילֵיהֶ֔ם וְאֶת־בִּגְדֵ֥י רִקְמָתָ֖ם יִפְשֹׁ֑טוּ חֲרָדֹ֤ות ׀ יִלְבָּ֙שׁוּ֙ עַל־הָאָ֣רֶץ יֵשֵׁ֔בוּ וְחָֽרְדוּ֙ לִרְגָעִ֔ים וְשָׁמְמ֖וּ עָלָֽיִךְ׃ |
17 They will lift up a lament for you and say to you, How you, who were inhabited by sailors, have been destroyed. The famous city that was so strong—it is now gone from the sea. The ones living in her once spread a terror about themselves upon everyone who lived near them.
| וְנָשְׂא֨וּ עָלַ֤יִךְ קִינָה֙ וְאָ֣מְרוּ לָ֔ךְ אֵ֣יךְ אָבַ֔דְתְּ נֹושֶׁ֖בֶת מִיַּמִּ֑ים הָעִ֣יר הַהֻלָּ֗לָה אֲשֶׁר֩ הָיְתָ֨ה חֲזָקָ֤ה בַיָּם֙ הִ֣יא וְיֹשְׁבֶ֔יהָ אֲשֶׁר־נָתְנ֥וּ חִתִּיתָ֖ם לְכָל־יֹושְׁבֶֽיהָ׃ |
18 Now the coasts tremble on the day of your downfall. The islands in the sea are terrified, because you are no longer in your place.'
| עַתָּה֙ יֶחְרְד֣וּ הָֽאִיִּ֔ן יֹ֖ום מַפַּלְתֵּ֑ךְ וְנִבְהֲל֛וּ הָאִיִּ֥ים אֲשֶׁר־בַּיָּ֖ם מִצֵּאתֵֽךְ׃ ס |
19 For the Lord Yahweh says this: When I make you a desolate city, like the other cities that are not inhabited, when I raise up the deeps against you, and when the great waters cover you,
| כִּ֣י כֹ֤ה אָמַר֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה בְּתִתִּ֤י אֹתָךְ֙ עִ֣יר נֶחֱרֶ֔בֶת כֶּעָרִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא־נֹושָׁ֑בוּ בְּהַעֲלֹ֤ות עָלַ֙יִךְ֙ אֶת־תְּהֹ֔ום וְכִסּ֖וּךְ הַמַּ֥יִם הָרַבִּֽים׃ |
20 then I will bring you down to the people of ancient times, like the others who have gone down into the pit; for I will make you live in the lowest realms of the earth as in ruins of ancient times. Because of this you will not come back and stand in the land of the living.
| וְהֹורַדְתִּיךְ֩ אֶת־יֹ֨ורְדֵי בֹ֜ור אֶל־עַ֣ם עֹולָ֗ם וְ֠הֹושַׁבְתִּיךְ בְּאֶ֨רֶץ תַּחְתִּיֹּ֜ות כָּחֳרָבֹ֤ות מֵֽעֹולָם֙ אֶת־יֹ֣ורְדֵי בֹ֔ור לְמַ֖עַן לֹ֣א תֵשֵׁ֑בִי וְנָתַתִּ֥י צְבִ֖י בְּאֶ֥רֶץ חַיִּֽים׃ |
21 I will place disaster on you, and you will be no more forever. Then you will be sought, but you will never be found ever again—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
| בַּלָּהֹ֥ות אֶתְּנֵ֖ךְ וְאֵינֵ֑ךְ וּֽתְבֻקְשִׁ֗י וְלֹֽא־תִמָּצְאִ֥י עֹוד֙ לְעֹולָ֔ם נְאֻ֖ם אֲדֹנָ֥י יְהֹוִֽה׃ ס |
