Yehezkiel 28
1 TUHAN berkata kepadaku,
The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
2 "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.
Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus says the Lord GOD; Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet you are a man, and not God, though you set your heart as the heart of God:
3 Sangkamu engkau lebih pandai daripada Danel, sehingga tak ada rahasia yang tersembunyi bagimu.
Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from you:
4 Kaupakai hikmat dan pengertianmu untuk mengumpulkan harta, emas dan perak.
With your wisdom and with your understanding you have got you riches, and have got gold and silver into your treasures:
5 Memang, engkau pandai berdagang dan sekarang sudah kaya raya, dan kekayaanmu itu membuat engkau sombong!'"
By your great wisdom and by your trade have you increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches:
6 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.
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Because you have set your heart as the heart of God;
Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon you, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, and they shall defile your brightness.
8 Engkau akan dibunuh dan dikuburkan di dalam laut.
They shall bring you down to the pit, and you shall die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas.
9 Nah, jika tiba saat itu, masih dapatkah engkau mengatakan bahwa engkau Allah? Di hadapan pembunuh-pembunuhmu, nyatalah bahwa engkau hanya manusia belaka.
Will you yet say before him that slays you, I am God? but you shall be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slays you.
10 Engkau akan mati seperti orang hina karena dibunuh oleh orang asing yang tidak mengenal Allah. Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara."
You shall die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, says the Lord GOD.
11 TUHAN berkata lagi kepadaku, kata-Nya,
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
12 "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!
Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus says the Lord GOD; You seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
13 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.
You have been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering, the ruby, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of your timbrels and of your pipes was prepared in you in the day that you were created.
14 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.
You are the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set you so: you were upon the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
15 Kelakuanmu sempurna sejak engkau diciptakan sampai engkau mulai berbuat jahat.
You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, till iniquity was found in you.
16 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.
By the multitude of your merchandise they have filled the midst of you with violence, and you have sinned: therefore I will cast you as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
17 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.'"
your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness: I will cast you to the ground, I will lay you before kings, that they may behold you.
18 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.
You have defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities, by the iniquity of your trade; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of you, it shall devour you, and I will bring you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold you.
19 Engkau telah hilang lenyap untuk selama-lamanya. Semua bangsa yang mengenal engkau menjadi gentar karena takut akan mengalami nasib seperti itu."
All they that know you among the people shall be astonished at you: you shall be a terror, and never shall you be any more.
20 TUHAN berkata kepadaku,
Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
21 "Hai manusia fana, kutukilah kota Sidon.
Son of man, set your face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,
22 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.
And say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against you, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of you: and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.
23 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.'"
For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
24 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."
And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
25 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.
Thus says the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.
26 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."
And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.
