Ezekiel 20
1 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth [month], the tenth [day] of the month, [that] certain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of the LORD, and sat before me.
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الْعَاشِرِ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ الْخَامِسِ (أَيْ تَمُّوزَ – يُولْيُو) مِنَ السَّنَةِ السَّابِعَةِ أَقْبَلَ إِلَيَّ بَعْضُ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَسْتَشِيروا الرَّبَّ، فَجَلَسُوا أَمَامِي. | ١ |
2 Then came the word of the LORD to me, saying,
| فَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً: | ٢ |
3 Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Are ye come to inquire of me? [As] I live, saith the Lord God, I will not be inquired of by you.
| «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لِشُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَلْ جِئْتُمْ لِتَسْتَشِيرُونِي؟ حَيٌّ أَنَا، لَنْ أُتِيحَ لَكُمْ طَلَبَ الْمَشُورَةِ مِنِّي. | ٣ |
4 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge [them]? cause them to know the abominations of their fathers:
| أَتَدِينُهُمْ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ؟ أَتُحَاكِمُهُمْ؟ أَطْلِعْهُمْ عَلَى رَجَاسَاتِ آبَائِهِمْ، | ٤ |
5 And say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand to the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up my hand to them, saying, I [am] the LORD your God;
| وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي اصْطَفَيْتُ فِيهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَحَلَفْتُ لِذُرِّيَّةِ بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ وَأَعْلَنْتُ لَهُمْ عَنْ نَفْسِي فِي دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، حَلَفْتُ لَهُمْ قَائِلاً: أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. | ٥ |
6 In the day [that] I lifted up my hand to them, to bring them forth from the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for them, flowing with milk and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands:
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَقْسَمْتُ لَهُمْ أَنْ أُخْرِجَهُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي اسْتَكْشَفْتُهَا لَهُمْ، الَّتِي تَفِيضُ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً، فَخْرِ كُلِّ الأَرَاضِي، | ٦ |
7 Then said I to them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I [am] the LORD your God.
| وَقُلْتُ لَهُمْ: لِيَنْبِذْ كُلٌّ مِنْكُمُ الأَرْجَاسَ الَّتِي تُنَجِّسُ عَيْنَيْهِ، وَلا تَتَدَنَّسُوا بِأَصْنَامِ مِصْرَ؛ أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. | ٧ |
8 But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken to me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: then I said, I will pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
| وَلَكِنَّهُمْ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَيَّ وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِي، وَلَمْ يَتْرُكُوا الأَرْجَاسَ الَّتِي تُنَجِّسُ عُيُونَهُمْ، وَلَمْ يَهْجُرُوا أَصْنَامَ مِصْرَ. فَقُلْتُ: سَأَسْكُبُ عَلَيْهِمْ غَضَبِي وَأَنْفُثُ فِيهِمْ كَامِلَ سَخَطِي فِي وَسَطِ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ. | ٨ |
9 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned before the heathen, among whom they [were], in whose sight I made myself known to them, in bringing them forth from the land of Egypt.
| غَيْرَ أَنِّي تَصَرَّفْتُ عَلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِي، لِئَلّا يَتَنَجَّسَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي يَسْكُنُ شَعْبُ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَيْنَهَا. إِذْ أَعْلَنْتُ نَفْسِي أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ حِينَ أَخْرَجْتُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ. | ٩ |
10 Wherefore I caused them to go forth from the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.
| وَهَكَذَا أَخْرَجْتُهُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، وَأَتَيْتُ بِهِمْ إِلَى الْبَرِّيَّةِ، | ١٠ |
11 And I gave them my statutes, and showed them my judgments, which [if] a man doeth, he shall even live in them.
| وَأَعْطَيْتُهُمْ فَرَائِضِي، وَأَعْلَنْتُ لَهُمْ أَحْكَامِي الَّتِي إِنْ مَارَسَهَا إِنْسَانٌ يَحْيَا بِها، | ١١ |
12 Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I [am] the LORD that sanctify them.
| وَأَعْطَيْتُهُمْ كَذَلِكَ سُبُوتِي لِتَكُونَ عَلامَةً بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ لِيُدْرِكُوا أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أُقَدِّسُهُمْ. | ١٢ |
13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which [if] a man doeth, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly profaned: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.
| لَكِنَّ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَيَّ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ وَلَمْ يُمَارِسُوا فَرَائِضِي، وَتَنَكَّرُوا لأَحْكَامِي الَّتِي إِنْ عَمِلَ بِها إِنْسَانٌ يَحْيَا، وَنَجَّسُوا أَيَّامَ سُبُوتِي كَثِيراً. فَقُلْتُ: سَأَسْكُبُ غَضَبِي عَلَيْهِمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ لأُمِيتَهُمْ. | ١٣ |
14 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out.
| لَكِنَّنِي تَصَرَّفْتُ عَلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِي، لِئَلّا يَتَنَجَّسَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي أَخْرَجْتُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى مَشْهَدٍ مِنْهَا. | ١٤ |
15 Yet also I lifted up my hand to them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given [them], flowing with milk and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands;
| وَحَلَفْتُ لَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ بِأَنِّي لَنْ أَقُودَهُمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتُهَا لَهُمْ، الَّتِي تَفِيضُ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً، فَخْرِ الأَرَاضِي كُلِّهَا، | ١٥ |
16 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but profaned my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
| لأَنَّهُمْ تَنَكَّرُوا لأَحْكَامِي وَلَمْ يُمَارِسُوا فَرَائِضِي، بَلْ دَنَّسُوا أَيَّامَ سُبُوتِي وَضَلَّ قَلْبُهُمْ وَرَاءَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ. | ١٦ |
17 Nevertheless my eye spared them from destroying them, neither did I make an end of them in the wilderness.
| وَلَكِنْ عَيْنِي تَرَأَّفَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ أُهْلِكْهُمْ وَلَمْ أُفْنِهِمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ١٧ |
18 But I said to their children in the wilderness, Walk ye not in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols:
| وَأَوْصَيْتُ أَبْنَاءَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ أَلّا يَسْلُكُوا فِي طُرُقِ آبَائِهِمْ وَلا يُمَارِسُوا أَعْمَالَهُمْ وَلا يَتَنَجَّسُوا بِأَصْنَامِهِمْ. | ١٨ |
19 I [am] the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them;
| أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ فَاسْلُكُوا فِي فَرَائِضِي وَاحْفَظُوا أَحْكَامِي وَاعْمَلُوا بِها. | ١٩ |
20 And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I [am] the LORD your God.
| وَقَدِّسُوا سُبُوتِي فَتَكُونَ عَلامَةً بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكُمْ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ | ٢٠ |
21 Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which [if] a man doeth, he shall even live in them: they profaned my sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.
| فَتَمَرَّدَ الأَبْنَاءُ عَلَيَّ. لَمْ يَسْلُكُوا فِي فَرَائِضِي وَلَمْ يَحْفَظُوا أَحْكَامِي لِيَعْمَلُوهَا الَّتِي إِنْ عَمِلَهَا إِنْسَانٌ يَحْيَا بِها، وَنَجَّسُوا سُبُوتِي. فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي أَسْكُبُ غَضَبِي عَلَيْهِمْ لأُتِمَّ سَخَطِي عَلَيْهِمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٢١ |
22 Nevertheless I withdrew my hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the heathen, in whose sight I brought them forth.
| وَلَكِنِّي كَفَفْتُ يَدِي عَنْهُمْ وَتَصَرَّفْتُ عَلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِي، لِئَلّا يَتَنَجَّسَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي أَخْرَجْتُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى مَشْهَدٍ مِنْهَا. | ٢٢ |
23 I lifted up my hand to them also in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries;
| وَحَلَفْتُ لَهُمْ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ أَنْ أُفَرِّقَهُمْ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ وَأُشَتِّتَهُمْ عَبْرَ الْبُلْدَانِ. | ٢٣ |
24 Because they had not executed my judgments, but had despised my statutes, and had profaned my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols.
| لأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُطَبِّقُوا أَحْكَامِي بَلْ تَنَكَّرُوا لِفَرَائِضِي وَدَنَّسُوا أَيَّامَ سُبُوتِي وَتَعَلَّقَتْ عُيُونُهُمْ بِأَصْنَامِ آبَائِهِمْ. | ٢٤ |
25 Wherefore I gave them also statutes [that were] not good, and judgments by which they should not live;
| لِذَلِكَ أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ فَرَائِضَ غَيْرَ صَالِحَةٍ وَأَحْكَاماً لَا يَحْيَوْنَ بِها. | ٢٥ |
26 And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through [the fire] all the first-born, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I [am] the LORD.
| وَجَعَلْتُهُمْ يَتَنَجَّسُونَ بِعَطَايَاهُمْ إِذْ أَجَازُوا فِي النَّارِ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ لأُبِيدَهُمْ، حَتَّى يُدْرِكُوا أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ. | ٢٦ |
27 Therefore, son of man, speak to the house of Israel, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Yet in this your fathers have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me.
| لِهَذَا، يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لِشَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: بِهَذِهِ الأُمُورِ جَدَّفَ عَلَيَّ آبَاؤُكُمْ إِذْ خَانُونِي أَشَدَّ خِيَانَةٍ. | ٢٧ |
28 [For] when I had brought them into the land, [for] which I lifted up my hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savor, and poured out there their drink-offerings.
| عِنْدَمَا جِئْتُ بِهِمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَقْسَمْتُ أَنْ أَهَبَهَا لَهُمْ، وَرَأَوْا كُلَّ أَكَمَةٍ مُرْتَفِعَةٍ وَكُلَّ شَجَرَةٍ وَارِفَةٍ، فَذَبَحُوا قَرَابِينَهُمْ هُنَاكَ وَقَرَّبُوا ذَبَائِحَهُمُ الْمُغِيظَةَ، وَأَصْعَدُوا تَقْدِمَاتٍ، رَوَائِحَ الرِّضَى وَسَكَبُوا سَكَائِبَ خَمْرِهِمْ، | ٢٨ |
29 Then I said to them, What [is] the high place to which ye go? and its name is called Bamah to this day.
| فَسَأَلْتُهُمْ: مَا هَذِهِ الْمُرْتَفَعَةُ الَّتِي تَأْتُونَ إِلَيْهَا؟ فَدُعِيَتْ مَرْتَفَعَةً إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٢٩ |
30 Wherefore say to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Are ye polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit ye lewd deeds after their abominations?
| لِذَلِكَ قُلْ لِشَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَلْ دَنَّسْتُمْ أَنْفُسَكُمْ كَمَا فَعَلَ آبَاؤُكُمْ وَغَوَيْتُمْ وَرَاءَ أَصْنَامِكُمُ الرَّجْسَةِ؟ | ٣٠ |
31 For when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons to pass through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols, even to this day: and shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.
| إِنَّكُمْ تَتَنَجَّسُونَ مَعَ كُلِّ أَصْنَامِكُمْ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ، حِينَ تُقَدِّمُونَ عَطَايَاكُمْ لِلأَوْثَانِ وَتُجِيزُونَ أَبْنَاءَكُمْ فِي النَّارِ. فَهَلْ بَعْدَ هَذَا تَأْتُونَ إِلَيَّ لِطَلَبِ مَشُورَتِي يَا شَعْبَ إسْرَائِيلَ؟ حَيٌّ أَنَا يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، لَنْ أُتِيحَ لَكُمْ طَلَبَ مَشُورَتِي. | ٣١ |
32 And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at all, that ye say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.
| إِذْ لَنْ يَتَحَقَّقَ مَا يَخْطُرُ بِبَالِكُمْ إِذْ تَقُولُونَ، لِنَكُنْ كَسَائِرِ قَبَائِلِ الأَرْضِ فَنَعْبُدَ الْخَشَبَ وَالْحَجَرَ. | ٣٢ |
33 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty hand, and with an out-stretched arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule over you:
| حَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، إِنِّي بِيَدٍ قَوِيَّةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ قَدِيَرةٍ وَغَضَبٍ مَصْبُوبٍ أَمْلِكُ عَلَيْكُمْ، | ٣٣ |
34 And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries in which ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an out-stretched arm, and with fury poured out.
| وَأُخْرِجُكُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الشُّعُوبِ وَأَجْمَعُكُمْ مِنَ الْبُلْدَانِ الَّتِي تَشَتَّتُّمْ فِيهَا، بِيَدٍ قَويَّةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ قَدِيرَةٍ وَغَضَبٍ مَصْبُوبٍ، | ٣٤ |
35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you face to face.
| وَآتِي بِكُمْ إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ الأُمَمِ فَأُحَاكِمُكُمْ هُنَاكَ مُوَاجَهَةً، | ٣٥ |
36 As I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I plead with you, saith the Lord GOD.
| وَكَمَا حَاكَمْتُ أَسْلافَكُمْ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، أُحَاكِمُكُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً. | ٣٦ |
37 And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant.
| وَأُحْصِيكُمْ، وَأُدْخِلُكُمْ فِي مِيثَاقِ الْعَهْدِ، | ٣٧ |
38 And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and them that transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the country where they sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
| وَأَعْزِلُ مِنْ بَيْنِكُمُ الْمُتَمَرِّدِينَ وَالْعُصَاةَ عَلَيَّ، وَأُخْرِجُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ غُرْبَتِهِمْ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَدْخُلُوا أَرْضَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَتُدْرِكُونَ آنَئِذٍ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ. | ٣٨ |
39 As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord GOD; Go ye, serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter [also], if ye will not hearken to me: but profane ye my holy name no more with your gifts, and with your idols.
| أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ يَا شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَامْضُوا وَلْيَعْبُدْ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ أَصْنَامَهُ، وَلَكِنْ فِيمَا بَعْدُ، سَتَسْتَمِعُونَ حَتْماً لِي، وَلَنْ تُدَنِّسُوا اسْمِي الْقُدُّوسَ بَعْدُ بِعَطَايَاكُمْ وَأَوْثَانِكُمْ. | ٣٩ |
40 For on my holy mountain, on the mountain of the hight of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, there shall all the house of Israel, all of them in the land, serve me: there will I accept them, and there will I require your offerings, and the first fruits of your oblations, with all your holy things.
| لأَنَّهُ فِي جَبَلِ قُدْسِي، جَبَلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الشَّامِخِ، هُنَاكَ يَعْبُدُنِي فِي الأَرْضِ شَعْبُ إِسْرَائِيلَ كُلُّهُمْ. هُنَاكَ أَرْضَى عَنْهُمْ وَأَلْتَمِسُ تَقْدِمَاتِكُمْ وَبَاكُورَةَ غَلّاتِكُمْ مَعَ جَمِيعِ مُقَدَّسَاتِكُمْ. | ٤٠ |
41 I will accept you with your sweet savor, when I bring you out from the people, and gather you out of the countries in which ye have been scattered; and I will be sanctified in you before the heathen.
| وَأَرْضَى عَنْكُمْ كَرَائِحَةِ سُرُورٍ حِينَ أُخْرِجُكُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الشُّعُوبِ، وَأَجْمَعُكُمْ مِنَ الْبُلْدَانِ الَّتِي تَشَتَّتُّمْ إِلَيْهَا، وَأَتَجَلَّى بِقَدَاسَتِي بَيْنَكُمْ عَلَى مَشْهَدٍ مِنَ الأُمَمِ. | ٤١ |
42 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I shall bring you into the land of Israel, into the country [for] which I lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers.
| فَتُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ حِينَ أَرُدُّكُمْ إِلَى أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَقْسَمْتُ لِآبَائِكُمْ أَنْ أَهَبَهَا لَهُمْ. | ٤٢ |
43 And there shall ye remember your ways, and all your doings in which ye have been defiled; and ye shall lothe yourselves in your own sight for all your evils that ye have committed.
| هُنَاكَ تَذْكُرُونَ طُرُقَ شَرِّكُمْ وَأَعْمَالَكُمُ الَّتِي تَدَنَّسْتُمْ بِها، وَتَمْقُتُونَ أَنْفُسَكُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ مَا ارْتَكَبْتُمُوهُ مِنْ شُرُورٍ. | ٤٣ |
44 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have wrought with you for my name's sake, not according to your wicked ways, nor according to your corrupt doings, O ye house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
| فَتُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ حِينَ أُعَامِلُكُمْ، إِكْرَاماً لاسْمِي، لَا بِمُقْتَضَى طُرُقِكُمُ الشِّرِّيرَةِ وَلا بِمُوْجِبِ أَعْمَالِكُمُ السَّيِّئَةِ يَا شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ». | ٤٤ |
45 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
| وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً: | ٤٥ |
46 Son of man, set thy face towards the south, and drop [thy word] towards the south, and prophesy against the forest of the south field;
| «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، الْتَفِتْ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ وَأَنْذِرْهُ، وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَى أَرْضِ الْغَابَاتِ فِي النَّقَبِ | ٤٦ |
47 And say to the forest of the south, Hear the word of the LORD; Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour every green tree in thee, and every dry tree: the flaming flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be burned therein.
| وَقُلْ لِغَابَاتِ النَّقَبِ: اسْمَعُوا قَضَاءَ الرَّبِّ، فَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أُضْرِمُ نَاراً فِيكِ فَتَلْتَهِمُ كُلَّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ وَيَابِسَةٍ، وَلا يَنْطَفِئُ لَهِيبُهَا الْمُتَأَجِّجُ، فَتَحْتَرِقُ بِها كُلُّ الْوُجُوهِ مِنَ الْجَنُوبِ إِلَى الشِّمَالِ. | ٤٧ |
48 And all flesh shall see that I the LORD have kindled it: it shall not be quenched.
| فَيَرَى كُلُّ بَشَرٍ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أَضْرَمْتُهَا، وَلا يُمْكِنُ أَنْ تَنْطَفِئَ». | ٤٨ |
49 Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! they say of me, Doth he not speak parables?
| عِنْدَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «آهٍ يَا سَيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هُمْ يَقُولُونَ عَنِّي: أَمَا يَضْرِبُ هُوَ أَمْثَالاً فَقَطْ؟» | ٤٩ |
