< Yehezkiel 16 >

1 TUHAN berbicara lagi kepadaku,
Again the word of YHWH came to me, saying,
2 "Hai manusia fana, tunjukkanlah kepada Yerusalem perbuatan-perbuatan keji yang telah dilakukannya."
"Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations;
3 TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi menyuruh aku menyampaikan pesan ini kepada Yerusalem, "Hai Yerusalem, engkau lahir di tanah Kanaan. Ayahmu orang Amori dan ibumu orang Het.
and say, 'Thus says YHWH to Jerusalem: Your birth and your birth is of the land of the Canaanite; the Amorite was your father, and your mother was a Hethite.
4 Ketika engkau lahir tak ada yang memotong tali pusatmu, atau memandikan engkau, atau memborehimu dengan garam, atau menyelimutimu dengan kain.
As for your birth, in the day you were born your navel was not cut, neither were you washed in water to cleanse you; you weren't salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
5 Tak seorang pun merasa kasihan kepadamu sehingga mau melakukan hal-hal itu bagimu. Ketika engkau lahir, tak ada yang sayang kepadamu, malahan engkau dibuang di ladang.
No eye pitied you, to do any of these things to you, to have compassion on you; but you were cast out in the open field, for that your person was abhorred, in the day that you were born.
6 Kemudian lewatlah Aku dan melihat engkau menggeliat dalam genangan darahmu, tetapi Aku tak membiarkan engkau mati.
"'And I passed by you and saw you wallowing in your blood, and I said to you in your blood: 'Live.'
7 Kuambil air lalu Kucuci darah dari tubuhmu. Kugosok kulitmu dengan minyak zaitun. Kubesarkan engkau seperti tanaman yang subur. Engkau tumbuh pesat, sehat dan semampai, serta menjadi seorang wanita muda. Buah dadamu mulai montok dan rambutmu panjang, tetapi engkau telanjang. Ketika Aku lewat lagi, Kulihat bahwa telah tiba waktumu untuk bercinta. Kubentangkan jubah-Ku pada tubuhmu yang telanjang, dan Kujanjikan cinta-Ku padamu. Ya, Kuikat janji perkawinan denganmu, dan engkau menjadi milik-Ku. Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara.
I caused you to multiply as that which grows in the field, and you increased and grew great, and you attained to excellent ornament; your breasts were fashioned, and your hair was grown; yet you were naked and bare.
8
"'Now when I passed by you, and looked at you, look, your time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over you, and covered your nakedness: yes, I swore to you, and entered into a covenant with you,' says YHWH, 'and you became mine.
9
"'Then I washed you with water; yes, I thoroughly washed away your blood from you, and I anointed you with oil.
10 Kemudian Kupakaikan kepadamu gaun yang bersulam, sepatu dari kulit yang terhalus, ikat kepala dari kain linen dan jubah sutra.
I clothed you also with embroidered work, and shod you with sealskin, and I dressed you about with fine linen, and covered you with silk.
11 Kurias engkau dengan permata, kalung dan gelang-gelang.
I decked you with ornaments, and I put bracelets on your hands, and a chain on your neck.
12 Kuberikan kepadamu cincin hidung, anting-anting dan mahkota yang indah.
I put a ring on your nose, and earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head.
13 Demikianlah engkau berhiaskan emas dan perak; pakaianmu terbuat dari kain linen dan sutra bersulam. Engkau boleh makan roti dari terigu yang terbaik, dengan madu dan minyak zaitun. Kecantikanmu sungguh luar biasa dan engkau menjadi ratu.
Thus you were decked with gold and silver; and your clothing was of fine linen, and silk, and embroidered work; you ate fine flour, and honey, and oil; and you were exceeding beautiful, and you prospered to royal estate.
14 Segala bangsa memuji kecantikanmu yang sempurna itu, dan Akulah yang telah membuatmu jelita. Aku TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara.
Your renown went forth among the nations for your beauty; for it was perfect, through my majesty which I had put on you,' says YHWH.
15 Tetapi engkau menyalahgunakan kecantikanmu serta keharuman namamu. Engkau tidur dengan laki-laki mana pun yang lewat.
"'But you trusted in your beauty, and played the prostitute because of your renown, and poured out your prostitution on everyone who passed by; his it was.
16 Sebagian dari pakaianmu kaugunakan untuk menghiasi tempat penyembahan berhalamu. Engkau menjadi pelacur dan memberikan tubuhmu kepada setiap laki-laki.
You took of your garments, and made for yourselves high places decked with various colors, and played the prostitute on them: the like things shall not come, neither shall it be so.
17 Dari perhiasan emas dan perak yang Kuberikan kepadamu, kaubuat patung-patung orang lelaki, lalu engkau berbuat cabul dengan patung-patung itu.
You also took your beautiful jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given you, and made for yourself images of men, and played the prostitute with them;
18 Kaukenakan pada patung-patung itu pakaian bersulam yang telah Kuberikan kepadamu. Kaupersembahkan kepada mereka minyak zaitun dan dupa yang telah kauterima daripada-Ku.
and you took your embroidered garments, and covered them, and set my oil and my incense before them.
19 Kuberi kepadamu makanan dari terigu yang paling baik, madu dan minyak zaitun yang paling murni. Tetapi semua itu kaupersembahkan kepada berhala-berhala itu untuk menyenangkan hati mereka. Aku TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara.
My bread also which I gave you, fine flour, and oil, and honey, with which I fed you, you even set it before them for a pleasant aroma; and thus it was,' says YHWH.
20 Kemudian kaupersembahkan anak-anak kita, laki-laki dan perempuan, menjadi kurban kepada berhala-berhala. Belum cukupkah bahwa engkau tidak setia kepada-Ku?
"'Moreover you have taken your sons and your daughters, whom you have borne to me, and you have sacrificed these to them to be devoured. Was your prostitution a small matter,
21 Haruskah kauambil juga anak-anak-Ku dan mengurbankan mereka kepada berhala-berhala?
that you have slain my children, and delivered them up, in causing them to pass through the fire to them?
22 Dalam hidupmu yang menjijikkan sebagai pelacur itu, sedikit pun engkau tak mengingat masa kecilmu dulu, ketika engkau telanjang dan menggeliat dalam genangan darahmu sendiri."
In all your abominations and your prostitution you have not remembered the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare, and were wallowing in your blood.
23 TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi berkata, "Celakalah engkau! Sungguh celaka! Engkau telah melakukan segala kejahatan itu.
"'It has happened after all your wickedness, ("Woe, woe to you." says YHWH),
24 Lagipula, di alun-alun kota dan di tepi setiap jalan engkau mendirikan tempat-tempat untuk menyembah berhala dan melacur.
that you have built for yourselves a vaulted place, and have made yourselves a lofty place in every street.
25 Engkau mencemarkan kecantikanmu. Tubuhmu kautawarkan kepada setiap laki-laki yang lewat, dan tak henti-hentinya engkau berzinah.
You have built your lofty place at the head of every way, and have made your beauty an abomination, and have opened your feet to everyone who passed by, and multiplied your prostitution.
26 Mesir, tetanggamu yang besar nafsunya itu, telah kaukawani tidur. Engkau sengaja melacur untuk membuat Aku marah.
You have also committed sexual immorality with the Egyptians, your neighbors, great of flesh; and have multiplied your prostitution, to provoke me to anger.
27 Sekarang Aku bertindak untuk menghukum engkau dan mengambil berkat yang telah Kuberikan kepadamu. Kuserahkan engkau kepada orang-orang Filistin yang benci kepadamu dan yang muak melihat kelakuanmu yang kotor itu.
See therefore, I have stretched out my hand over you, and have diminished your ordinary food, and delivered you to the will of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your lewd way.
28 Tetapi engkau belum juga merasa puas; sebab itu kaukejar-kejar orang Asyur. Engkau menjadi pelacur mereka, tetapi tidak juga mendapat kepuasan dari mereka.
You have played the prostitute also with the Assyrians, because you were insatiable; yes, you have played the prostitute with them, and yet you weren't satisfied.
29 Lalu engkau menjadi pelacur orang Babel, bangsa pedagang itu. Tetapi mereka pun tidak sanggup memberi kepuasan kepadamu."
You have moreover multiplied your prostitution to the land of merchants, to Chaldea; and yet you weren't satisfied with this.
30 TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi berkata, "Semuanya itu telah kaulakukan seperti pelacur yang tak tahu malu.
"'How weak is your heart, says YHWH, since you do all these things, the work of an impudent prostitute;
31 Di alun-alun kota dan di setiap jalan kaudirikan tempat-tempat untuk menyembah berhala dan melacur. Tetapi engkau bukanlah seperti pelacur biasa yang perlu uang.
in that you build your vaulted place at the head of every way, and make your lofty place in every street, and have not been as a prostitute, in that you scorn pay.
32 Engkau seperti istri yang mengkhianati suaminya dan berbuat serong dengan laki-laki lain.
"'A wife who commits adultery, who takes strangers instead of her husband.
33 Seorang pelacur selalu mendapat bayaran, tetapi sebaliknya engkaulah yang memberi hadiah kepada kekasih-kekasihmu, bahkan kaubujuk mereka dengan uang supaya datang dari mana-mana untuk tidur bersamamu.
They give gifts to all prostitutes; but you give your gifts to all your lovers, and bribe them, that they may come to you on every side for your prostitution.
34 Engkau pelacur yang lain dari yang lain-lain. Tak ada yang memaksa engkau menjadi pelacur. Engkau tidak dibayar, malahan engkau sendiri yang membayar. Memang, engkau lain dari yang lain-lain."
You are different from other women in your prostitution, in that no one follows you to play the prostitute; and whereas you give hire, and no hire is given to you, therefore you are different.'
35 Hai Yerusalem, pelacur, dengarlah apa yang dikatakan TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, "Engkau telah membuka bajumu, dan sebagai pelacur kauserahkan tubuhmu kepada kekasih-kekasih dan berhala-berhalamu yang menjijikkan itu. Anak-anakmu kaubunuh dan kaukurbankan bagi berhala-berhala itu.
"Therefore, prostitute, hear the word of YHWH:
Thus says YHWH, 'Because your filthiness was poured out, and your nakedness uncovered through your prostitution with your lovers; and because of all the idols of your abominations, and for the blood of your children, that you gave to them;
37 Karena itu, semua bekas kekasihmu akan Kukumpulkan, baik yang kausukai maupun yang kaubenci. Mereka akan berdiri mengelilingi engkau dan akan melepaskan seluruh pakaianmu, sehingga mereka dapat memandang tubuhmu yang telanjang.
therefore see, I will gather all your lovers, with whom you have taken pleasure, and all those who you have loved, with all those who you have hated; I will even gather them against you on every side, and will uncover your nakedness to them, that they may see all your nakedness.
38 Engkau akan Kuhukum karena perzinahan dan pembunuhan yang telah kaulakukan itu. Dalam kemarahan dan murka-Ku engkau akan Kuhukum mati.
I will judge you, as women who break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will bring on you the blood of wrath and jealousy.
39 Engkau akan Kuserahkan kepada kekasih-kekasihmu itu, dan mereka akan merubuhkan tempat-tempat engkau melacur dan menyembah berhala. Segala pakaian dan perhiasanmu akan mereka rampas, sehingga engkau telanjang.
I will also give you into their hand, and they shall throw down your vaulted place, and break down your lofty places; and they shall strip you of your clothes, and take your beautiful jewels; and they shall leave you naked and bare.
40 Mereka akan menyuruh orang banyak melempari engkau dengan batu, dan memotong-motong tubuhmu dengan pedang.
They shall also bring up a company against you, and they shall stone you with stones, and thrust you through with their swords.
41 Mereka akan membakar rumah-rumahmu dan menyuruh para wanita menyaksikan penghukumanmu. Demikianlah akan Kuhentikan perzinahanmu. Engkau tak akan membagi-bagikan hadiah lagi kepada kekasih-kekasihmu.
They shall burn your houses with fire, and execute judgments on you in the sight of many women; and I will cause you to cease from playing the prostitute, and you shall also give no hire any more.
42 Baru setelah itu kemarahan-Ku akan reda, dan Aku akan menjadi tenang kembali. Aku tak akan marah lagi atau cemburu.
So will I cause my wrath toward you to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from you, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.
43 Aku menghukum engkau karena engkau tak ingat bagaimana Aku merawat engkau ketika engkau masih muda. Engkau membuat Aku marah dengan segala perbuatanmu yang jahat itu. Mengapa segala kelakuanmu yang menjijikkan itu masih kautambah lagi dengan perzinahan? Aku TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara."
"'Because you have not remembered the days of your youth, but have raged against me in all these things; therefore, look, I also will bring your way on your head,' says YHWH: 'and you shall not commit this lewdness with all your abominations.
44 TUHAN berkata, "Hai Yerusalem, orang-orang akan mengenakan peribahasa ini kepadamu, 'Seperti ibunya, begitu juga putrinya.'
"'Look, everyone who uses proverbs shall use this proverb against you, saying, "As is the mother, so is her daughter."
45 Memang, engkau adalah anak perempuan ibumu. Dia benci kepada suaminya dan kepada anak-anaknya sendiri. Engkau mirip saudara-saudaramu perempuan yang juga membenci suaminya dan anak-anaknya. Engkau dan saudara-saudaramu, yaitu kota-kota di sekitarmu mempunyai ibu orang Het dan ayah orang Amori.
You are the daughter of your mother, who loathes her husband and her children; and you are the sister of your sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hethite, and your father an Amorite.
46 Kakakmu adalah Samaria di utara dengan semua desanya. Dan adikmu adalah Sodom di selatan dengan semua desanya.
Your elder sister is Samaria, who dwells at your left hand, she and her daughters; and your younger sister, who dwells at your right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
47 Puaskah engkau mengikuti jejak mereka dan meniru perbuatan mereka yang menjijikkan itu? Belum! Tak berapa lama lagi engkau bahkan lebih bejat lagi daripada mereka.
Yet have you not walked in their ways, nor done after their abominations; but, as if that were a very little thing, you were more corrupt than they in all your ways.
48 Demi Aku, Allah yang hidup, kata TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, saudaramu Sodom dengan desa-desanya belum pernah sejahat engkau dengan desa-desamu.
As I live,' says YHWH, 'Sodom your sister has not done, she nor her daughters, as you have done, you and your daughters.
49 Sodom dan desa-desanya sombong karena punya banyak persediaan makanan serta dapat hidup dengan tenang dan damai. Tetapi mereka tidak memperhatikan orang miskin dan orang hina.
"'Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
50 Mereka sombong dan keras kepala, serta melakukan hal-hal yang Kubenci. Sebab itu mereka Kuhancurkan seperti yang telah kaulihat.
They were haughty, and committed abomination before me. So I took them away, as you have seen.
51 Memang Samaria jahat, tetapi dosanya tidak ada separuh dari dosa-dosamu. Kelakuanmu jauh lebih jahat lagi. Saudara-saudaramu perempuan seakan-akan tidak bersalah dibandingkan dengan engkau. Engkau harus merasa malu dan hina!"
Neither has Samaria committed half of your sins; but you have multiplied your abominations more than they, and have justified your sisters by all your abominations which you have done.
You also, bear you your own shame, in that you have given judgment for your sisters; through your sins that you have committed more abominable than they, they are more righteous that you: yes, be also confounded, and bear your shame, in that you have justified your sisters.
53 TUHAN berkata kepada Yerusalem, "Sodom dan Samaria serta desa-desa mereka akan Kujadikan makmur kembali. Setelah itu, barulah engkau Kujadikan makmur juga.
"'I will turn again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of your captives in their midst;
54 Dengan demikian engkau akan malu pada dirimu sendiri, dan kehinaanmu akan menunjukkan kepada saudara-saudaramu betapa baik nasib mereka.
that you may bear your own shame, and may be ashamed because of all that you have done, in that you are a comfort to them.
55 Mereka dan desa-desa mereka akan menjadi makmur kembali, juga engkau dan desa-desamu.
Your sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate; and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate; and you and your daughters shall return to your former estate.
56 Bukankah engkau pernah menertawakan Sodom pada waktu engkau masih sombong
For your sister Sodom was not mentioned by your mouth in the day of your pride,
57 dan kejahatanmu belum ketahuan? Sekarang engkau sama saja dengan dia; engkau menjadi bahan tertawaan orang Edom, orang Filistin dan tetangga-tetanggamu lainnya yang benci kepadamu.
before your wickedness was uncovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Aram, and of all who are around her, the daughters of the Philistines, who do despite to you all around.
58 Engkau harus menderita sebagai akibat perbuatanmu yang kotor dan menjijikkan itu. Aku TUHAN telah berbicara."
You have borne your lewdness and your abominations, says YHWH.'
59 TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi berkata, "Engkau akan Kuperlakukan setimpal dengan perbuatanmu, sebab engkau telah mengingkari sumpahmu serta melanggar perjanjian-Ku dengan engkau.
"For thus says YHWH: 'I will also deal with you as you have done, who have despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
60 Tetapi Aku akan mengingat perjanjian yang telah Kubuat denganmu di masa mudamu dan membuat perjanjian denganmu yang berlaku untuk selama-lamanya.
Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish to you an everlasting covenant.
61 Engkau akan teringat kepada perbuatan-perbuatanmu dan merasa malu sewaktu saudara-saudaramu Kukembalikan kepadamu. Mereka akan Kujadikan seperti anak-anakmu, meskipun hal itu tidak termasuk dalam perjanjian-Ku denganmu.
Then you shall remember your ways, and be ashamed, when you receive your older and your younger sisters; and I will give them to you as daughters, but not by your covenant.
62 Aku akan membuat perjanjian yang baru denganmu. Maka tahulah engkau bahwa Akulah TUHAN.
I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall know that I am YHWH;
63 Aku akan memaafkan semua kesalahanmu, tetapi engkau tak akan dapat melupakannya dan engkau akan merasa malu untuk mengatakan apa pun. Aku TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara."
that you may remember, and be confounded, and never open your mouth any more, because of your shame, when I have forgiven you all that you have done, says YHWH.'"
