< Ezekiel 28 >
1 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
TUHAN berkata kepadaku,
2 “Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Your heart is arrogant! You have said, “I am a god! I will sit in the seat of the gods in the heart of the seas!” Even though you are a man and not a god, you make your heart like the heart of a god;
"Hai manusia fana, sampaikanlah kepada raja Tirus, apa yang Aku TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi katakan kepadanya, 'Dengan sombong engkau menganggap dirimu dewa yang bertakhta di tengah-tengah laut. Boleh saja engkau berlagak sebagai dewa, tetapi ingatlah, engkau hanya manusia biasa.
3 you think that you are wiser than Daniel, and that no secret amazes you!
Sangkamu engkau lebih pandai daripada Danel, sehingga tak ada rahasia yang tersembunyi bagimu.
4 You have made yourself wealthy with wisdom and skill, and obtained gold and silver in your treasuries!
Kaupakai hikmat dan pengertianmu untuk mengumpulkan harta, emas dan perak.
5 By great wisdom and by your trading, you have multiplied your wealth, so your heart is arrogant because of your wealth.
Memang, engkau pandai berdagang dan sekarang sudah kaya raya, dan kekayaanmu itu membuat engkau sombong!'"
6 Therefore, the Lord Yahweh says this: Because you have made your heart like the heart of a god,
TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi berkata, "Hai Tirus, karena engkau menganggap dirimu sama seperti Allah, Aku akan mengirim tentara asing yang sangat kejam untuk menyerang engkau. Mereka akan menghancurkan segala kemegahan yang telah kaucapai berkat hikmat dan pengertianmu.
7 I will therefore bring foreigners against you, terrifying men from other nations. They will bring their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they will profane your splendor.
8 They will send you down to the pit, and you will die the death of those who die in the heart of the seas.
Engkau akan dibunuh dan dikuburkan di dalam laut.
9 Will you truly say, “I am a god” to the face of one who kills you? You are a man and not God, and you will be in the hand of the one who pierces you.
Nah, jika tiba saat itu, masih dapatkah engkau mengatakan bahwa engkau Allah? Di hadapan pembunuh-pembunuhmu, nyatalah bahwa engkau hanya manusia belaka.
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of foreigners, for I have declared it—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
Engkau akan mati seperti orang hina karena dibunuh oleh orang asing yang tidak mengenal Allah. Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara."
11 The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying,
TUHAN berkata lagi kepadaku, kata-Nya,
12 “Son of man, lift up a lament for the king of Tyre and say to him, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
"Hai manusia fana, merataplah untuk raja Tirus. Sampaikanlah apa yang Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi katakan kepadanya, 'Engkau pernah menjadi lambang kesempurnaan; dulu engkau sungguh bijaksana dan tampan!
13 You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone covered you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made from gold. It was on the day you were created that they were prepared.
Tempat tinggalmu di Eden, taman Allah. Pakaianmu berhiaskan bermacam-macam permata: batu delima dan intan, topas, batu pirus, batu yakut, ratna, cempaka, batu nilam, zamrud dan batu alkali merah. Perhiasan emasmu pun banyak. Barang-barang itu dibuat untukmu pada hari engkau diciptakan.
14 I placed you on the holy mountain of God as the cherub I anointed to guard mankind. You were in the midst of the fiery stones where you walked about.
Malaikat yang menyeramkan Kutempatkan di situ untuk menjaga engkau. Engkau tinggal di atas gunung-Ku yang suci dan berjalan di tengah-tengah batu permata yang gemerlapan.
15 You had integrity in your ways from the day you were created until injustice was found within you.
Kelakuanmu sempurna sejak engkau diciptakan sampai engkau mulai berbuat jahat.
16 Through your great trade you were filled with violence, and so you sinned. So I threw you out of the mountain of God, as a one who was defiled, and I destroyed you, guardian cherub, and drove you from among the fiery stones.
Engkau sibuk berjual beli, dan itulah yang membawa engkau kepada kekerasan dan dosa. Maka Kuusir engkau dari gunung-Ku yang suci, dan malaikat penjagamu menghalau engkau dari tengah-tengah permata yang gemerlapan itu.
17 Your heart was arrogant with your beauty; you ruined your wisdom because of your splendor. I have sent you down to the earth. I have placed you before kings so they may see you.
Rupamu yang tampan membuat engkau sombong dan kemasyhuran menyebabkan engkau bertindak bodoh. Sebab itu engkau Kubanting ke tanah dan Kujadikan peringatan untuk raja-raja lain.'"
18 Because of your many sins and your dishonest trade, you have defiled your holy places. So I have made fire come out from you; it will consume you. I will turn you into ashes on the earth in the sight of all who look at you.
TUHAN berkata, "Hai Tirus, engkau mencemarkan tempat-tempat ibadatmu karena kesalahan-kesalahan dan kecurangan waktu berjual beli. Sebab itu Kubakar engkau sehingga menjadi rata dengan tanah. Semua orang yang memandang engkau hanya melihat abu.
19 All the ones who knew you among the peoples will shudder at you; they will be horrified, and you will be no more forever.'”
Engkau telah hilang lenyap untuk selama-lamanya. Semua bangsa yang mengenal engkau menjadi gentar karena takut akan mengalami nasib seperti itu."
20 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
TUHAN berkata kepadaku,
21 “Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.
"Hai manusia fana, kutukilah kota Sidon.
22 Say, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Sidon! For I will be glorified in your midst so your people will know that I am Yahweh when I execute justice within you. I will be shown to be holy in you.
Sampaikanlah kepada penduduknya bahwa Aku TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi berkata kepada mereka, 'Aku ini musuhmu, hai Sidon. Orang-orang akan memuji Aku karena tindakan-Ku terhadap engkau. Pada waktu Aku menghukum pendudukmu, mereka akan tahu bahwa Akulah TUHAN yang suci.
23 I will send out a plague in you and blood in your streets, and the slain will fall in your midst. When the sword comes against you from all around, then you will know that I am Yahweh.
Aku akan mendatangkan wabah penyakit, dan membiarkan darah mengalir di jalan-jalanmu. Engkau akan diserang musuh dari segala jurusan, dan pendudukmu akan dibunuh. Maka tahulah engkau bahwa Akulah TUHAN.'"
24 Then there will no longer be pricking briars and painful thorns for the house of Israel from all those around her who despise her people, so they will know that I am the Lord Yahweh!'
TUHAN berkata, "Negeri-negeri tetangga yang pernah menghina Israel, tidak lagi merupakan onak dan duri yang menyakiti Israel. Mereka akan sadar bahwa Akulah TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi."
25 The Lord Yahweh says this, 'When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they were scattered, and when I am set apart among them, so the nations may see, then they will make their homes in the land I will give to my servant Jacob.
TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi berkata, "Aku akan mengumpulkan orang-orang Israel dari negeri-negeri jauh di tempat mereka telah Kuceraiberaikan, dan semua bangsa akan tahu bahwa Aku suci. Bangsa Israel akan tinggal lagi di tanah mereka sendiri, tanah yang telah Kuberikan kepada hamba-Ku Yakub.
26 Then they will live securely within her and build houses, plant vineyards, and live securely when I execute justice on all the ones who now despise them from all around; so they will know that I am Yahweh their God!'”
Mereka akan hidup dengan aman di situ dan membangun rumah-rumah serta membuat kebun-kebun anggur. Aku akan menghukum semua tetangga mereka yang telah menghina mereka, sehingga Israel menjadi aman. Maka tahulah mereka bahwa Akulah TUHAN Allah mereka."
