حِزْقِيَال 13

١ 1 وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

٢ 2 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، تَنَبَّأْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ، وَقُلْ لِلَّذِينَ هُمْ أَنْبِيَاءُ مِنْ تِلْقَاءِ ذَوَاتِهِمِ: ٱسْمَعُوا كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ.

Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say you to them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear you the word of the LORD;

٣ 3 هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: وَيْلٌ لِلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلْحَمْقَى ٱلذَّاهِبِينَ وَرَاءَ رُوحِهِمْ وَلَمْ يَرَوْا شَيْئًا.

Thus says the Lord GOD; Woe to the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!

٤ 4 أَنْبِيَاؤُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ صَارُوا كَٱلثَّعَالِبِ فِي ٱلْخِرَبِ.

O Israel, your prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.

٥ 5 لَمْ تَصْعَدُوا إِلَى ٱلثُّغَرِ، وَلَمْ تَبْنُوا جِدَارًا لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِلْوُقُوفِ فِي ٱلْحَرْبِ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ.

You have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.

٦ 6 رَأَوْا بَاطِلًا وَعِرَافَةً كَاذِبَةً. ٱلْقَائِلُونَ: وَحْيُ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَٱلرَّبُّ لَمْ يُرْسِلْهُمْ، وَٱنْتَظَرُوا إِثْبَاتَ ٱلْكَلِمَةِ.

They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD says: and the LORD has not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.

٧ 7 أَلَمْ تَرَوْا رُؤْيَا بَاطِلَةً، وَتَكَلَّمْتُمْ بِعِرَافَةٍ كَاذِبَةٍ، قَائِلِينَ: وَحْيُ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَأَنَا لَمْ أَتَكَلَّمْ؟

Have you not seen a vain vision, and have you not spoken a lying divination, whereas you say, The LORD says it; albeit I have not spoken?

٨ 8 لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: لِأَنَّكُمْ تَكَلَّمْتُمْ بِٱلْبَاطِلِ وَرَأَيْتُمْ كَذِبًا، فَلِذَلِكَ هَا أَنَا عَلَيْكُمْ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Because you have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, says the Lord GOD.

٩ 9 وَتَكُونُ يَدِي عَلَى ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَرَوْنَ ٱلْبَاطِلَ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ. فِي مَجْلِسِ شَعْبِي لَا يَكُونُونَ، وَفِي كِتَابِ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا يُكْتَبُونَ، وَإِلَى أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا يَدْخُلُونَ، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

And my hand shall be on the prophets that see vanity, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the assembly of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and you shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

١٠ 10 مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُمْ أَضَلُّوا شَعْبِي قَائِلِينَ: سَلَامٌ! وَلَيْسَ سَلَامٌ. وَوَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ يَبْنِي حَائِطًا وَهَا هُمْ يُمَلِّطُونَهُ بِٱلطُّفَالِ.

Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and, see, others daubed it with untempered mortar:

١١ 11 فَقُلْ لِلَّذِينَ يُمَلِّطُونَهُ بِٱلطُّفَالِ: إِنَّهُ يَسْقُطُ. يَكُونُ مَطَرٌ جَارِفٌ، وَأَنْتُنَّ يَا حِجَارَةَ ٱلْبَرَدِ تَسْقُطْنَ، وَرِيحٌ عَاصِفَةٌ تُشَقِّقُهُ.

Say to them which daub it with untempered mortar, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and you, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it.

١٢ 12 وَهُوَذَا إِذَا سَقَطَ ٱلْحَائِطُ، أَفَلَا يُقَالُ لَكُمْ: أَيْنَ ٱلطِّينُ ٱلَّذِي طَيَّنْتُمْ بِهِ؟

See, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said to you, Where is the daubing with which you have daubed it?

١٣ 13 لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنِّي أُشَقِّقُهُ بِرِيحٍ عَاصِفَةٍ فِي غَضَبِي، وَيَكُونُ مَطَرٌ جَارِفٌ فِي سَخَطِي، وَحِجَارَةُ بَرَدٍ فِي غَيْظِي لِإِفْنَائِهِ.

Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; I will even rend it with a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in my anger, and great hailstones in my fury to consume it.

١٤ 14 فَأَهْدِمُ ٱلْحَائِطَ ٱلَّذِي مَلَّطْتُمُوهُ بِٱلطُّفَالِ، وَأُلْصِقُهُ بِٱلْأَرْضِ، وَيَنْكَشِفُ أَسَاسُهُ فَيَسْقُطُ، وَتَفْنَوْنَ أَنْتُمْ فِي وَسْطِهِ، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

So will I break down the wall that you have daubed with untempered mortar, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and you shall be consumed in the middle thereof: and you shall know that I am the LORD.

١٥ 15 فَأُتِمُّ غَضَبِي عَلَى ٱلْحَائِطِ وَعَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مَلَّطُوهُ بِٱلطُّفَالِ، وَأَقُولُ لَكُمْ: لَيْسَ ٱلْحَائِطُ بِمَوْجُودٍ وَلَا ٱلَّذِينَ مَلَّطُوهُ!

Thus will I accomplish my wrath on the wall, and on them that have daubed it with untempered mortar, and will say to you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it;

١٦ 16 أَيْ أَنْبِيَاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ لِأُورُشَلِيمَ وَيَرَوْنَ لَهَا رُؤَى سَلَامٍ، وَلَا سَلَامَ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

To wit, the prophets of Israel which prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace, says the Lord GOD.

١٧ 17 «وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَٱجْعَلْ وَجْهَكَ ضِدَّ بَنَاتِ شَعْبِكَ ٱللَّوَاتِي يَتَنَبَّأْنَ مِنْ تِلْقَاءِ ذَوَاتِهِنَّ، وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهِنَّ،

Likewise, you son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy you against them,

١٨ 18 وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: وَيْلٌ لِلَّوَاتِي يَخُطْنَ وَسَائِدَ لِكُلِّ أَوْصَالِ ٱلْأَيْدِي، وَيَصْنَعْنَ مِخَدَّاتٍ لِرَأْسِ كُلِّ قَامَةٍ لِٱصْطِيَادِ ٱلنُّفُوسِ. أَفَتَصْطَدْنَ نُفُوسَ شَعْبِي وَتَسْتَحْيِينَ أَنْفُسَكُنَّ،

And say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs on the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will you hunt the souls of my people, and will you save the souls alive that come to you?

١٩ 19 وَتُنَجِّسْنَنِي عِنْدَ شَعْبِي لِأَجْلِ حَفْنَةِ شَعِيرٍ، وَلِأَجْلِ فُتَاتٍ مِنَ ٱلْخُبْزِ، لِإِمَاتَةِ نُفُوسٍ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ تَمُوتَ، وَٱسْتِحْيَاءِ نُفُوسٍ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ تَحْيَا، بِكَذِبِكُنَّ عَلَى شَعْبِي ٱلسَّامِعِينَ لِلْكَذِبِ؟

And will you pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies?

٢٠ 20 «لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا ضِدُّ وَسَائِدِكُنَّ ٱلَّتِي تَصْطَدْنَ بِهَا ٱلنُّفُوسَ كَٱلْفِرَاخِ، وَأُمَزِّقُهَا عَنْ أَذْرُعِكُنَّ، وَأُطْلِقُ ٱلنُّفُوسَ، ٱلنُّفُوسَ ٱلَّتِي تَصْطَدْنَهَا كَٱلْفِرَاخِ.

Why thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against your pillows, with which you there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that you hunt to make them fly.

٢١ 21 وَأُمَزِّقُ مِخَدَّاتِكُنَّ وَأُنْقِذُ شَعْبِي مِنْ أَيْدِيكُنَّ، فَلَا يَكُونُونَ بَعْدُ فِي أَيْدِيكُنَّ لِلصَّيْدِ، فَتَعْلَمْنَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and you shall know that I am the LORD.

٢٢ 22 لِأَنَّكُنَّ أَحْزَنْتُنَّ قَلْبَ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ كَذِبًا وَأَنَا لَمْ أُحْزِنْهُ، وَشَدَّدْتُنَّ أَيْدِي ٱلشِّرِّيرِ حَتَّى لَا يَرْجِعَ عَنْ طَرِيقِهِ ٱلرَّدِيئَةِ فَيَحْيَا،

Because with lies you have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:

٢٣ 23 فَلِذَلِكَ لَنْ تَعُدْنَ تَرَيْنَ ٱلْبَاطِلَ وَلَا تَعْرِفْنَ عِرَافَةً بَعْدُ، وَأُنْقِذُ شَعْبِي مِنْ أَيْدِيكُنَّ، فَتَعْلَمْنَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».

Therefore you shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people out of your hand: and you shall know that I am the LORD.
