< حِزْقِيَال 14 >

فَجَاءَ إِلَيَّ رِجَالٌ مِنْ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَجَلَسُوا أَمَامِي. ١ 1
Then came certain of the elders of Israel to me, and sat before me.
فَصَارَتْ إِلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلَةً: ٢ 2
The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ قَدْ أَصْعَدُوا أَصْنَامَهُمْ إِلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ، وَوَضَعُوا مَعْثَرَةَ إِثْمِهِمْ تِلْقَاءَ أَوْجُهِهِمْ. فَهَلْ أُسْأَلُ مِنْهُمْ سُؤَالًا؟ ٣ 3
"Son of man, these men have taken their idols into their heart, and put the stumbling block of their iniquity before their face: should I be inquired of at all by them?
لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ كَلِّمْهُمْ وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي يُصْعِدُ أَصْنَامَهُ إِلَى قَلْبِهِ، وَيَضَعُ مَعْثَرَةَ إِثْمِهِ تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِهِ، ثُمَّ يَأْتِي إِلَى ٱلنَّبِيِّ، فَإِنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ أُجِيبُهُ حَسَبَ كَثْرَةِ أَصْنَامِهِ، ٤ 4
Therefore speak to them, and tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: "Every man of the house of Israel who takes his idols into his heart, and puts the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and comes to the prophet; I the LORD will answer him in it according to the multitude of his idols;
لِكَيْ آخُذَ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِقُلُوبِهِمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ كُلَّهُمْ قَدِ ٱرْتَدُّوا عَنِّي بِأَصْنَامِهِمْ. ٥ 5
that I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols."'
لِذَلِكَ قُلْ لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: تُوبُوا وَٱرْجِعُوا عَنْ أَصْنَامِكُمْ، وَعَنْ كُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِكُمُ ٱصْرِفُوا وُجُوهَكُمْ. ٦ 6
"Therefore tell the house of Israel, 'Thus says the LORD: "Return, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.
لِأَنَّ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَوْ مِنَ ٱلْغُرَبَاءِ ٱلْمُتَغَرِّبِينَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِذَا ٱرْتَدَّ عَنِّي وَأَصْعَدَ أَصْنَامَهُ إِلَى قَلْبِهِ، وَوَضَعَ مَعْثَرَةَ إِثْمِهِ تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِهِ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ إِلَى ٱلنَّبِيِّ لِيَسْأَلَهُ عَنِّي، فَإِنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ أُجِيبُهُ بِنَفْسِي. ٧ 7
For everyone of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who live in Israel, who separates himself from me, and takes his idols into his heart, and puts the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and comes to the prophet to inquire for himself of me; I the LORD will answer him by myself:
وَأَجْعَلُ وَجْهِي ضِدَّ ذَلِكَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ وَأَجْعَلُهُ آيَةً وَمَثَلًا، وَأَسْتَأْصِلُهُ مِنْ وَسْطِ شَعْبِي، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ. ٨ 8
and I will set my face against that man, and will make him an astonishment, for a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and you shall know that I am the LORD.
فَإِذَا ضَلَّ ٱلنَّبِيُّ وَتَكَلَّمَ كَلَامًا، فَأَنَا ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ أَضْلَلْتُ ذَلِكَ ٱلنَّبِيَّ، وَسَأَمُدُّ يَدِي عَلَيْهِ وَأُبِيدُهُ مِنْ وَسْطِ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٩ 9
"'"If the prophet is deceived and speaks a word, I, the LORD, have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand on him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
وَيَحْمِلُونَ إِثْمَهُمْ. كَإِثْمِ ٱلسَّائِلِ يَكُونُ إِثْمُ ٱلنَّبِيِّ. ١٠ 10
They shall bear their iniquity: the iniquity of the prophet shall be even as the iniquity of him who seeks him;
لِكَيْ لَا يَعُودَ يَضِلُّ عَنِّي بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلِكَيْ لَا يَعُودُوا يَتَنَجَّسُونَ بِكُلِّ مَعَاصِيهِمْ، بَلْ لِيَكُونُوا لِي شَعْبًا وَأَنَا أَكُونُ لَهُمْ إِلَهًا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». ١١ 11
that the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither defile themselves any more with all their transgressions; but that they may be my people, and I may be their God," says the LORD.'"
وَكَانَتْ إِلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلَةً: ١٢ 12
The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، إِنْ أَخْطَأَتْ إِلَيَّ أَرْضٌ وَخَانَتْ خِيَانَةً، فَمَدَدْتُ يَدِي عَلَيْهَا وَكَسَرْتُ لَهَا قِوَامَ ٱلْخُبْزِ، وَأَرْسَلْتُ عَلَيْهَا ٱلْجُوعَ، وَقَطَعْتُ مِنْهَا ٱلْإِنْسَانَ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَ، ١٣ 13
"Son of man, when a land sins against me by committing a trespass, and I stretch out my hand on it, and break the staff of its bread, and send famine on it, and cut off from it man and animal;
وَكَانَ فِيهَا هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ: نُوحٌ وَدَانِيآلُ وَأَيُّوبُ، فَإِنَّهُمْ إِنَّمَا يُخَلِّصُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ بِبِرِّهِمْ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ١٤ 14
though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, says the LORD."
إِنْ عَبَّرْتُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وُحُوشًا رَدِيئَةً فَأَثْكَلُوهَا وَصَارَتْ خَرَابًا بِلَا عَابِرٍ بِسَبَبِ ٱلْوُحُوشِ، ١٥ 15
"If I cause evil animals to pass through the land, and they ravage it, and it be made desolate, so that no man may pass through because of the animals;
وَفِي وَسْطِهَا هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ، فَحَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنَّهُمْ لَا يُخَلِّصُونَ بَنِينَ وَلَا بَنَاتٍ. هُمْ وَحْدَهُمْ يَخْلُصُونَ وَٱلْأَرْضُ تَصِيرُ خَرِبَةً. ١٦ 16
though these three men were in it, as I live," says the LORD, "they should deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only should be delivered, but the land should be desolate.
أَوْ إِنْ جَلَبْتُ سَيْفًا عَلَى تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَقُلْتُ: يَا سَيْفُ ٱعْبُرْ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَقَطَعْتُ مِنْهَا ٱلْإِنْسَانَ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَ، ١٧ 17
"Or if I bring a sword on that land, and say, 'Sword, go through the land'; so that I cut off from it man and animal;
وَفِي وَسْطِهَا هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ، فَحَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنَّهُمْ لَا يُخَلِّصُونَ بَنِينَ وَلَا بَنَاتٍ، بَلْ هُمْ وَحْدَهُمْ يَخْلُصُونَ. ١٨ 18
though these three men were in it, as I live, says the LORD, they should deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only should be delivered themselves.
أَوْ إِنْ أَرْسَلْتُ وَبَأً عَلَى تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَسَكَبْتُ غَضَبِي عَلَيْهَا بِٱلدَّمِ لِأَقْطَعَ مِنْهَا ٱلْإِنْسَانَ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَ، ١٩ 19
"Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my wrath on it in blood, to cut off from it man and animal;
وَفِي وَسْطِهَا نُوحٌ وَدَانِيآلُ وَأَيُّوبُ، فَحَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنَّهُمْ لَا يُخَلِّصُونَ ٱبْنًا وَلَا ٱبْنَةً. إِنَّمَا يُخَلِّصُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ بِبِرِّهِمْ. ٢٠ 20
though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, says the LORD, they could not save either son nor daughter; they would save only their own souls by their righteousness.
«لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: كَمْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ إِنْ أَرْسَلْتُ أَحْكَامِي ٱلرَّدِيئَةَ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ: سَيْفًا وَجُوعًا وَوَحْشًا رَدِيئًا وَوَبَأً، لِأَقْطَعَ مِنْهَا ٱلْإِنْسَانَ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَ! ٢١ 21
"For thus says the LORD: 'How much more when I send my four severe judgments on Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the evil animals, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and animal.
فَهُوَذَا بَقِيَّةٌ فِيهَا نَاجِيَةٌ تُخْرَجُ بَنُونَ وَبَنَاتٌ. هُوَذَا يَخْرُجُونَ إِلَيْكُمْ فَتَنْظُرُونَ طَرِيقَهُمْ وَأَعْمَالَهُمْ، وَتَتَعَزَّوْنَ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي جَلَبْتُهُ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ عَنْ كُلِّ مَا جَلَبْتُهُ عَلَيْهَا. ٢٢ 22
Yet, look, there shall be left a remnant that shall be carried forth, both sons and daughters: look, they shall come forth to you, and you shall see their way and their doings; and you shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought on Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought on it.
وَيُعَزُّونَكُمْ إِذْ تَرَوْنَ طَرِيقَهُمْ وَأَعْمَالَهُمْ، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي لَمْ أَصْنَعْ بِلَا سَبَبٍ كُلَّ مَا صَنَعْتُهُ فِيهَا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». ٢٣ 23
They shall comfort you, when you see their way and their doings; and you shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it,' says the LORD."
