Ezekiel 31

1 And it was don in the enleuenthe yeer, in the thridde moneth, in the firste dai of the monethe, the word of the Lord was maad to me,

١ وَكَانَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْحَادِيَةِ عَشَرَةَ، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّالِثِ، فِي أَوَّلِ ٱلشَّهْرِ، أَنَّ كَلَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانَ إِلَيَّ قَائِلًا:

2 and he seide, Thou, sone of man, seie to Farao, kyng of Egipt, and to his puple, To whom art thou maad lijk in thi greetnesse?

٢ «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لِفِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَجُمْهُورِهِ: مَنْ أَشْبَهْتَ فِي عَظَمَتِكَ؟

3 Lo! Assur as a cedre in Liban, fair in braunchis, and ful of boowis, and hiy bi hiynesse; and his heiyte was reisid among thicke bowis.

٣ هُوَذَا أَعْلَى ٱلْأَرْزِ فِي لُبْنَانَ جَمِيلُ ٱلْأَغْصَانِ وَأَغْبَى ٱلظِّلِّ، وَقَامَتُهُ طَوِيلَةٌ، وَكَانَ فَرْعُهُ بَيْنَ ٱلْغُيُومِ.

4 Watris nurschiden hym, the depthe of watris enhaunside him; hise floodis fletiden out in the cumpas of hise rootis, and he sente out hise strondis to alle the trees of the cuntrei.

٤ قَدْ عَظَّمَتْهُ ٱلْمِيَاهُ، وَرَفَعَهُ ٱلْغَمْرُ. أَنْهَارُهُ جَرَتْ مِنْ حَوْلِ مَغْرِسِهِ، وَأَرْسَلَتْ جَدَاوِلَهَا إِلَى كُلِّ أَشْجَارِ ٱلْحَقْلِ.

5 Therfor his hiynesse was enhaunsid ouer alle trees of the cuntrei, and hise trees weren multiplied, and hise braunchis weren reisid, for many watris.

٥ فَلِذَلِكَ ٱرْتَفَعَتْ قَامَتُهُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ أَشْجَارِ ٱلْحَقْلِ، وَكَثُرَتْ أَغْصَانُهُ، وَطَالَتْ فُرُوعُهُ لِكَثْرَةِ ٱلْمِيَاهِ إِذْ نَبَتَ.

6 And whanne he hadde stretchid forth his schadewe, alle the volatils of the eir maden nestis in hise braunchis; and alle the beestis of forestis gendriden vndur hise boowis, and the cumpeny of ful many folkis dwellide vndur the schadewynge place of hym.

٦ وَعَشَّشَتْ فِي أَغْصَانِهِ كُلُّ طُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَتَحْتَ فُرُوعِهِ وَلَدَتْ كُلُّ حَيَوَانِ ٱلْبَرِّ، وَسَكَنَ تَحْتَ ظِلِّهِ كُلُّ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ.

7 And he was ful fair in his greetnesse, and in alargyng of hise trees; for the roote of hym was bisidis many watris.

٧ فَكَانَ جَمِيلًا فِي عَظَمَتِهِ وَفِي طُولِ قُضْبَانِهِ، لِأَنَّ أَصْلَهُ كَانَ عَلَى مِيَاهٍ كَثِيرَةٍ.

8 Cedris in the paradijs of God weren not hiyere than he; fir trees atteyneden not euenli to the hiynesse of hym, and plane trees weren not euene with the boowis of hym. Ech tree of paradijs of God was not maad lic hym and his fairnesse.

٨ اَلْأَرْزُ فِي جَنَّةِ ٱللهِ لَمْ يَفُقْهُ، ٱلسَّرْوُ لَمْ يُشْبِهْ أَغْصَانَهُ، وَٱلدُّلْبُ لَمْ يَكُنْ مِثْلَ فُرُوعِهِ. كُلُّ ٱلْأَشْجَارِ فِي جَنَّةِ ٱللهِ لَمْ تُشْبِهْهُ فِي حُسْنِهِ.

9 For Y made hym fair, and with many and thicke boowis; and alle the trees of lust, that weren in the paradijs of God, hadden enuye to hym.

٩ جَعَلْتُهُ جَمِيلًا بِكَثْرَةِ قُضْبَانِهِ، حَتَّى حَسَدَتْهُ كُلُّ أَشْجَارِ عَدْنٍ ٱلَّتِي فِي جَنَّةِ ٱللهِ.

10 Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, For that that he was reisid in hiynesse, and he yaf his hyynesse greene and thicke, and his herte was reisid in his hiynesse;

١٠ «لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ ٱرْتَفَعَتْ قَامَتُكَ، وَقَدْ جَعَلَ فَرْعَهُ بَيْنَ ٱلْغُيُومِ، وَٱرْتَفَعَ قَلْبُهُ بِعُلُوِّهِ،

11 now Y haue youe hym in to the hondis of the strongeste man of hethene men. And he doynge schal do to that Assur; aftir the vnfeithfulnesse of hym Y castide hym out.

١١ أَسْلَمْتُهُ إِلَى يَدِ قَوِيِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ، فَيَفْعَلُ بِهِ فِعْلًا. لِشَرِّهِ طَرَدْتُهُ.

12 And aliens, and the moost cruel men of naciouns, schulen kitte hym doun, and schulen caste hym forth on hillis. And hise braunchis schulen falle doun in alle grete valeis, and hise trees schulen be brokun in alle roochis of stoon of erthe. And alle the puplis of erthe schulen go awei fro his schadewing place, and schulen forsake hym.

١٢ وَيَسْتَأْصِلُهُ ٱلْغُرَبَاءُ عُتَاةُ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَيَتْرُكُونَهُ، فَتَتَسَاقَطُ قُضْبَانُهُ عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ وَفِي جَمِيعِ ٱلْأَوْدِيَةِ، وَتَنْكَسِرُ قُضْبَانُهُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ أَنْهَارِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَيَنْزِلُ عَنْ ظِلِّهِ كُلُّ شُعُوبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَيَتْرُكُونَهُ.

13 Alle volatils of the eir dwelliden in the fallyng of hym, and alle beestis of the cuntrei weren in the braunchis of hym.

١٣ عَلَى هَشِيمِهِ تَسْتَقِرُّ جَمِيعُ طُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَجَمِيعُ حَيَوَانِ ٱلْبَرِّ تَكُونُ عَلَى قُضْبَانِهِ.

14 Wherfor alle the trees of watris schulen not be reisid in hir hiynesse, nether schulen sette hir hiynesse among places ful of woode, and ful of boowis, and alle trees that ben moistid of watris schulen not stonde in the hiynesse of tho. For alle thei ben youun in to deth, to the ferthest lond in the myddis of the sones of men, to hem that goon doun in to the lake.

١٤ لِكَيْلَا تَرْتَفِعَ شَجَرَةٌ مَّا وَهِيَ عَلَى ٱلْمِيَاهِ لِقَامَتِهَا، وَلَا تَجْعَلُ فَرْعَهَا بَيْنَ ٱلْغُيُومِ، وَلَا تَقُومُ بَلُّوطَاتُهَا فِي ٱرْتِفَاعِهَا كُلُّ شَارِبَةٍ مَاءً، لِأَنَّهَا قَدْ أُسْلِمَتْ جَمِيعًا إِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ، إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلسُّفْلَى، فِي وَسْطِ بَنِي آدَمَ مَعَ ٱلْهَابِطِينَ فِي ٱلْجُبِّ.

15 The Lord God seith these thingis, In the dai whanne he yede doun to hellis, Y brouyte yn mourenyng; Y hilide hym with depthe of watris, and I forbede his flodis, and Y refreynede many watris. The Liban was sori on him, and alle the trees of the feeld (Sheol h7585)

١٥ هَكَذَا قَالَ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: فِي يَوْمِ نُزُولِهِ إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ أَقَمْتُ نَوْحًا. كَسَوْتُ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْغَمْرَ، وَمَنَعْتُ أَنْهَارَهُ، وَفَنِيَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ ٱلْكَثِيرَةُ، وَأَحْزَنْتُ لُبْنَانَ عَلَيْهِ، وَكُلُّ أَشْجَارِ ٱلْحَقْلِ ذَبُلَتْ عَلَيْهِ. (Sheol h7585)

16 weren shakun of the soun of his falling. I mouide togidere hethene men, whanne Y ledde hym doun to helle, with hem that yeden doun in to the lake. And alle trees of likyng, noble trees, and ful cleere in the Liban, alle that weren moistid with watris, weren coumfortid in the loweste lond. (Sheol h7585)

١٦ مِنْ صَوْتِ سُقُوطِهِ أَرْجَفْتُ ٱلْأُمَمَ عِنْدَ إِنْزَالِي إِيَّاهُ إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ مَعَ ٱلْهَابِطِينَ فِي ٱلْجُبِّ، فَتَتَعَزَّى فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلسُّفْلَى كُلُّ أَشْجَارِ عَدْنٍ، مُخْتَارُ لُبْنَانَ وَخِيَارُهُ كُلُّ شَارِبَةٍ مَاءً. (Sheol h7585)

17 For whi also thei schulen go doun with hym to helle, to slayn men with swerd; and the arm of ech man schal sitte vndur the schadewyng place of hym, in the myddis of naciouns. (Sheol h7585)

١٧ هُمْ أَيْضًا نَزَلُوا إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ مَعَهُ، إِلَى ٱلْقَتْلَى بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَزَرْعُهُ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ تَحْتَ ظِلِّهِ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْأُمَمِ. (Sheol h7585)

18 To whom art thou licned, thou noble and hiy among the trees of likyng? Lo! thou art led doun with the trees of likyng to the fertheste lond. In the myddis of vncircumcidid men thou schalt slepe, with hem that ben slayn bi swerd. Thilke is Farao, and al the multitude of hym, seith the Lord God.

١٨ مَنْ أَشْبَهْتَ فِي ٱلْمَجْدِ وَٱلْعَظَمَةِ هَكَذَا بَيْنَ أَشْجَارِ عَدْنٍ؟ سَتُحْدَرُ مَعَ أَشْجَارِ عَدْنٍ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلسُّفْلَى، وَتَضْطَجِعُ بَيْنَ ٱلْغُلْفِ مَعَ ٱلْمَقْتُولِينَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. هَذَا فِرْعَوْنُ وَكُلُّ جُمْهُورِهِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ».
