Ezekiel 26

1 In the eleventh year, in the first of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,

١ وَفِي السَّنَةِ الْحَادِيَةِ عَشَرَةَ (مِنْ سَبْيِ الْمَلِكِ يَهُويَاكِينَ)، فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ مِنْ الشَّهْرِ، أَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ بِكَلِمَتِهِ قَائِلاً:

2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, ‘Aha! She is broken! She who was the gateway of the peoples has been returned to me. I will be replenished, now that she is laid waste;’

٢ «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، لأَنَّ صُورَ قَدْ شَمِتَتْ بِأُورُشَلِيمَ، وَقَالَتْ: هَا بَوَّابَةُ الشُّعُوبِ قَدِ انْهَارَتْ، وَتَحَوَّلَتِ الْقَوَافِلُ إِلَيَّ. هَا أَنَا أَزْدَهِرُ إِذْ حَلَّ بِها الدَّمَارُ.

3 therefore the Lord GOD says, ‘Behold, I am against you, Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes its waves to come up.

٣ لِذَلِكَ يُعْلِنُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أُعَاقِبُكِ يَا صُورُ، فَأَجْعَلُ أُمَماً كَثِيرَةً تُهَاجِمُكِ كَمَا يَهْجِمُ الْبَحْرُ بِأَمْوَاجِهِ.

4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre, and break down her towers. I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her a bare rock.

٤ فَيَهْدِمُونَ أَسْوَارَ صُورَ وَأَبْرَاجَهَا، وَأَكْشِطُ تُرَابَهَا عَنْهَا، وَأُحَوِّلُهَا إِلَى صَخْرَةٍ جَرْدَاءَ.

5 She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD. ‘She will become plunder for the nations.

٥ فَتُصْبِحُ مَنْشَراً لِلشِّبَاكِ فِي وَسَطِ الْبَحْرِ لأَنِّي أَنَا قَضَيْتُ، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، ثُمَّ تَغْدُو غَنِيمَةً لِلأُمَمِ.

6 Her daughters who are in the field will be slain with the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’

٦ وَتَهْلِكُ ضَوَاحِيهَا الرِّيفِيَّةُ بِالسَّيْفِ، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ.

7 “For the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will bring on Tyre Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, from the north, with horses, with chariots, with horsemen, and an army with many people.

٧ لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا آتِي بِمَلِكِ الْمُلُوكِ، نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ مِنَ الشِّمَالِ بِخَيْلٍ وَبِمَرْكَبَاتٍ وَبِفُرْسَانٍ وَأَقْوَامٍ غَفِيرَةٍ،

8 He will kill your daughters in the field with the sword. He will make forts against you, cast up a mound against you, and raise up the buckler against you.

٨ فَيُبِيدُ بِالسَّيْفِ قُرَى رِيفِكِ وَيُشَيِّدُ حَوْلَكِ سُورَ حِصَارٍ، وَيَبْنِي عَلَيْكِ أَبْرَاجاً، وَيُقِيمُ مِتْرَسَةً، وَيُهَاجِمُكِ بِتُرْسٍ.

9 He will set his battering engines against your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers.

٩ وَيَقْذِفُ أَسْوَارَكِ بِمَجَانِقَ، وَيَهْدِمُ أَبْرَاجَكِ بِعُدَّةِ حَرْبِهِ.

10 By reason of the abundance of his horses, their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen, of the wagons, and of the chariots, when he enters into your gates, as men enter into a city which is broken open.

١٠ وَلِكَثْرَةِ خَيْلِهِ يَحْجُبُكِ غُبَارُ حَوَافِرِهَا، وَتَتَزَلْزَلُ أَسْوَارُكِ مِنْ صَوْتِ الْفُرْسَانِ وَالْعَرَبَاتِ وَالْمَرْكَبَاتِ عِنْدَ اقْتِحَامِهِ أَبْوَابَكِ كَمَا تُقْتَحَمُ مَدِينَةٌ بِها ثَغْرَاتٌ،

11 He will tread down all your streets with the hoofs of his horses. He will kill your people with the sword. The pillars of your strength will go down to the ground.

١١ فَيَدُوسُ بِحَوَافِرِ خَيْلِهِ كُلَّ شَوَارِعِكِ، وَيَقْضِي بِالسَّيْفِ عَلَى شَعْبِكِ، فَتَتَهَاوَى إِلَى الأَرْضِ أَرْكَانُ عِزِّكِ،

12 They will make a plunder of your riches and make a prey of your merchandise. They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses. They will lay your stones, your timber, and your dust in the middle of the waters.

١٢ وَيَنْهَبُونَ ثَرْوَتَكِ، وَيَسْتَوْلُونَ عَلَى تِجَارَتِكِ وَيَهْدِمُونَ أَسْوَارَكِ وَبُيُوتَكِ الْمُبْهِجَةَ، وَيَطْرَحُونَ حِجَارَتَكِ وَخَشَبَكِ وَتُرَابَكِ إِلَى مِيَاهِ الْبَحْرِ.

13 I will cause the noise of your songs to cease. The sound of your harps won’t be heard any more.

١٣ وَأُخْرِسُ أَهَازِيجَ أَغَانِيكِ، وَلا تَتَرَدَّدُ بَعْدُ رَنَّاتُ أَعْوَادِكِ،

14 I will make you a bare rock. You will be a place for the spreading of nets. You will be built no more; for I the LORD have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD.

١٤ وَأَجْعَلُكِ كَصَخْرَةٍ جَرْدَاءَ، فَتَكُونِينَ مَنْشَراً لِلشِّبَاكِ، وَلا تُعْمَرِينَ فِي مَا بَعْدُ. لأَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ قَضَيْتُ يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ.

15 “The Lord GOD says to Tyre: ‘Won’t the islands shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made within you?

١٥ وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ عَنْ مَدِينَةِ صُورَ: أَلا تَرْتَعِدُ مُدُنُ السَّوَاحِلِ لِجَلَبَةِ سُقُوطِكِ، وَلِصُرَاخِ الْجَرْحَى، وَلِوُقُوعِ الْقَتْلِ فِيكِ،

16 Then all the princes of the sea will come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling. They will sit on the ground, and will tremble every moment, and be astonished at you.

١٦ فَيَنْزِلُ جَمِيعُ رُؤَسَاءِ الْمُدُنِ السَّاحِلِيَّةِ عَنْ عُرُوشِهِمْ وَيَخْلَعُونَ جُبَبَهُمْ وَيَطْرَحُونَ عَنْهُمْ أَرْدِيَتَهُمُ الْمُزَرْكَشَةَ، وَيَكْتَسُونَ الرُّعْبَ ثَوْباً، وَيَجْلِسُونَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ مُرْتَجِفِينَ فِي كُلِّ لَحْظَةٍ، مَذْعُورِينَ لِمَا أَصَابَكِ

17 They will take up a lamentation over you, and tell you, “How you are destroyed, who were inhabited by seafaring men, the renowned city, who was strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all who lived there!”

١٧ عِنْدَئِذٍ يَنُوحُونَ عَلَيْكِ بِمَرْثَاةٍ قَائِلِينَ: كَيْفَ تَلاشَيْتِ مِنْ بَيْنِ الْبِحَارِ أَيَّتُهَا الْمَدِينَةُ الْعَامِرَةُ الشَّهِيرَةُ، الَّتِي كَانَتْ مُسَيْطِرَةً هِيَ وَسُكَّانُهَا عَلَى الْبَحْرِ، فَأَلْقَوْا رُعْبَهُمْ عَلَى جَمِيعِ جِيرَانِهَا.

18 Now the islands will tremble in the day of your fall. Yes, the islands that are in the sea will be dismayed at your departure.’

١٨ الآنَ تَرْتَعِدُ مُدُنُ السَّوَاحِلِ فِي وَقْتِ سُقُوطِكِ، وَتَضْطَرِبُ الْجَزَائِرُ فِي وَسَطِ الْبَحْرِ لاِنْهِيَارِكِ،

19 “For the Lord GOD says: ‘When I make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep on you, and the great waters cover you,

١٩ إِذْ أُحَوِّلُكِ إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ خَرِبَةٍ كَالْمُدُنِ الْمُقْفِرَةِ. أُطْغِي عَلَيْكِ لُجَجَ الْبَحْرِ وَأَغْمُرُكِ بِالْمِيَاهِ الْكَثِيرَةِ،

20 then I will bring you down with those who descend into the pit, to the people of old time, and will make you dwell in the lower parts of the earth, in the places that are desolate of old, with those who go down to the pit, that you be not inhabited; and I will set glory in the land of the living.

٢٠ وَأُحْدِرُكِ مَعَ الْهَابِطِينَ إِلَى الْهَاوِيَةِ، إِلَى الشَّعْبِ الْقَدِيمِ، وَأَجْعَلُكِ تُقِيمِينَ فِي أَسَافِلِ الأَرْضِ فِي الْخِرَبِ الدَّائِرَةِ لِتَظَلِّي مُقْفِرَةً، فَلا يَكُونُ لَكِ مَكَانٌ فِي أَرْضِ الأَحْيَاءِ،

21 I will make you a terror, and you will no more have any being. Though you are sought for, yet you will never be found again,’ says the Lord GOD.”

٢١ وَأَجْلِبُ الرُّعْبَ عَلَيْكِ فَلا يَبْقَى مِنْكِ أَثَرٌ وَإِذْ يُبْحَثُ عَنْكِ لَا يُعْثَرُ عَلَيْكِ أَبَداً، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ».
