< Yehezkiel 31 >
1 Pada tanggal satu bulan tiga dalam tahun kesebelas masa pembuangan kami, TUHAN berkata kepadaku,
And it was in one [plus] ten year in the third [month] on [day] one of the month it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 "Hai manusia fana, sampaikanlah pesan-Ku ini kepada raja Mesir dan seluruh bangsanya: Sungguh hebat kebesaranmu! Tak ada yang dapat menjadi sainganmu!
O son of humankind say to Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt and to multitude his whom? are you like in greatness your.
3 Engkau seperti cemara Libanon yang gagah penuh cabang yang rimbun dan indah. Batangnya lurus dan lempang puncaknya mencapai awan.
There! Assyria [was] a cedar in Lebanon beautiful of branch[es] and forest giving shade and tall of height and between branches it was treetop its.
4 Ia tumbuh sebab airnya berkecukupan. Sungai di bawah tanah memberinya makanan, menyirami segala akarnya, dan membasahi pohon-pohon lainnya.
Waters they made grow it [the] deep it raised up it rivers its going around planting place its and channels its it sent out to all [the] trees of the field.
5 Karena airnya tak pernah kurang, tumbuhnya subur, dahannya besar dan panjang. Dari segala pohon di hutan-hutan, dialah yang paling tinggi menjulang.
There-fore it was tall height its more than all [the] trees of the field and they became great boughs its and they became long (branches its *Q(K)*) from waters many when sent out it.
6 Aneka burung bersarang di rantingnya. Binatang liar beranak dalam naungannya. Semua bangsa besar di seluruh dunia duduk berlindung di bawahnya.
In boughs its they made nests every bird of the heavens and under branches its they gave birth every animal of the field and in shade its they dwelt all nations great.
7 Pohon itu indah untuk dipandang; batangnya lurus, dahannya panjang. Akarnya menembus jauh ke bawah mencapai sumber air di dalam tanah.
And it was beautiful in greatness its in [the] length of branches its for it was root its to waters many.
8 Pohon-pohon cemara di Eden, taman Allah tak dapat disamakan dengan dia. Tak ada cemara yang dapat menyainginya, tak ada pohon yang begitu panjang dahannya. Sungguh, di taman Allah tak ada pohon seindah dia.
Cedars not they eclipsed it in [the] garden of God fir trees not they were like boughs its and plane trees not they were like branches its every tree in [the] garden of God not it was like it in beauty its.
9 Akulah yang membuat dia rupawan dengan dahan-dahannya yang panjang dan rindang. Segala pohon di taman Allah merasa cemburu kepadanya.
Beautiful I made it in [the] abundance of branches its and they envied it all [the] trees of Eden which [were] in [the] garden of God.
10 Sebab itu, Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, memberitahukan kepadamu apa yang akan terjadi pada pohon yang puncaknya sampai ke awan itu. Sebab semakin tinggi, semakin sombonglah dia.
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because that you were tall in height and it set treetop its to between branches and it was lifted up heart its in height its.
11 Maka Aku menolak dia dan akan menyerahkannya kepada penguasa asing, yang akan memperlakukan dia setimpal dengan kejahatannya.
And I will give it in [the] hand of a leader of nations certainly he will do to it according to wickedness its I drove out it.
12 Tentara asing yang tidak mengenal ampun akan menebang dia lalu membiarkannya. Rantingnya yang telah patah akan berjatuhan di semua gunung dan lembah di negeri itu. Semua bangsa yang tinggal di bawahnya akan pergi meninggalkan dia.
And they cut down it strangers ruthless [ones] of nations and they abandoned it to the mountains and in all [the] valleys they fell branches its and they were broken branches its in all [the] ravines of the land and they went down from shade its all [the] peoples of the earth and they abandoned it.
13 Burung-burung akan datang dan hinggap pada pohon yang sudah rebah itu, dan binatang-binatang liar akan menginjak-injak dahan-dahannya.
On fallen trunk its they dwelt every bird of the heavens and to branches its they came every animal of the field.
14 Semua itu terjadi supaya mulai saat ini, tak akan ada lagi pohon yang tumbuh setinggi itu; tak ada lagi puncak pohon yang mencapai awan meskipun mendapat air berlimpah-limpah. Semuanya harus mati seperti manusia yang fana, dan berkumpul dengan orang-orang yang telah turun ke dunia orang mati."
So that that not they may be lifted up in height their any trees of water and not they may set treetop their to between branches and not they may stand leaders their by height their any drinkers of water for all of them they have been given to death to [the] earth lowest in among [the] children of humankind to [those who] go down of [the] pit.
15 Beginilah kata TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, "Bilamana pohon itu turun ke dunia orang mati, Aku menyuruh air di bawah tanah menggenanginya sebagai tanda kabung. Aku akan menahan arus sungai dan menyumbat anak-anak sungai. Oleh karena pohon itu telah mati, Aku akan mendatangkan kegelapan atas gunung-gunung Libanon dan membuat layu semua pohon di hutan. (Sheol )
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh on [the] day went down it Sheol towards I caused mourning I covered over it [the] deep and I withheld rivers its and they were restrained waters many and I made mourn on it Lebanon and all [the] trees of the field on it [were] wilted. (Sheol )
16 Pada waktu pohon itu Kuturunkan ke dunia orang mati, bunyi jatuhnya akan menggetarkan bangsa-bangsa. Semua pohon di Eden dan pohon-pohon pilihan di Libanon yang mendapat air berlimpah-limpah, dan yang telah turun ke bumi yang paling bawah akan senang dengan jatuhnya pohon itu. (Sheol )
From [the] sound of downfall its I caused to tremble nations when brought down I it Sheol towards with [those who] go down of [the] pit and they were comforted in [the] earth lowest all [the] trees of Eden [the] choicest and [the] good of Lebanon all drinkers of water. (Sheol )
17 Mereka akan mengiringinya ke dunia orang mati dan berkumpul dengan mereka yang telah jatuh lebih dahulu. Dan semuanya yang dahulu duduk di bawah pohon itu akan disebarkan di antara bangsa-bangsa. (Sheol )
Also they with it they went down Sheol towards to [those] slain of a sword and arm its [which] they dwelt in shade its in among [the] nations. (Sheol )
18 Pohon itu melambangkan raja Mesir dan bangsanya. Tak ada pohon di Eden yang begitu tinggi dan mulia. Tetapi sekarang, seperti pohon-pohon di Eden juga, pohon itu pun akan turun ke dunia orang mati dan berkumpul dengan mereka yang tidak mengenal Allah dan dengan mereka yang tewas dalam pertempuran. Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi telah berbicara."
Whom? are you like thus in splendor and in greatness among [the] trees of Eden and you will be brought down with [the] trees of Eden to [the] earth lowest in among uncircumcised [men] you will lie with [those] slain of a sword that [is] Pharaoh and all (multitude his *Q(K)*) [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
