< حِزْقِيَال 21 >

وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ١ 1
Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، ٱجْعَلْ وَجْهَكَ نَحْوَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَتَكَلَّمْ عَلَى ٱلْمَقَادِسِ، وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَى أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٢ 2
'Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and preach toward the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;
وَقُلْ لِأَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا عَلَيْكِ، وَأَسْتَلُّ سَيْفِي مِنْ غِمْدِهِ فَأَقْطَعُ مِنْكِ ٱلصِّدِّيقَ وَٱلشِّرِّيرَ. ٣ 3
and say to the land of Israel: Thus saith the LORD: Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth My sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.
مِنْ حَيْثُ أَنِّي أَقْطَعُ مِنْكِ ٱلصِّدِّيقَ وَٱلشِّرِّيرَ، فَلِذَلِكَ يَخْرُجُ سَيْفِي مِنْ غِمْدِهِ عَلَى كُلِّ بَشَرٍ مِنَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ إِلَى ٱلشِّمَالِ. ٤ 4
Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall My sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north;
فَيَعْلَمُ كُلُّ بَشَرٍ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ، سَلَلْتُ سَيْفِي مِنْ غِمْدِهِ. لَا يَرْجِعُ أَيْضًا. ٥ 5
and all flesh shall know that I the LORD have drawn forth My sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more.
أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَتَنَهَّدْ بِٱنْكِسَارِ ٱلْحَقَوَيْنِ، وَبِمَرَارَةٍ تَنَهَّدْ أَمَامَ عُيُونِهِمْ. ٦ 6
Sigh therefore, thou son of man; with the breaking of thy loins and with bitterness shalt thou sigh before their eyes.
وَيَكُونُ إِذَا قَالُوا لَكَ: عَلَى مَ تَتَنَهَّدُ؟ أَنَّكَ تَقُولُ: عَلَى ٱلْخَبَرِ، لِأَنَّهُ جَاءٍ فَيَذُوبُ كُلُّ قَلْبٍ، وَتَرْتَخِي كُلُّ ٱلْأَيْدِي، وَتَيْأَسُ كُلُّ رُوحٍ، وَكُلُّ ٱلرُّكَبِ تَصِيرُ كَٱلْمَاءِ، هَا هِيَ آتِيَةٌ وَتَكُونُ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». ٧ 7
And it shall be, when they say unto thee: Wherefore sighest thou? that thou shalt say: Because of the tidings, for it cometh; and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be slack, and every spirit shall be faint, and all knees shall drip with water; behold, it cometh, and it shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.'
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ٨ 8
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، تَنَبَّأْ وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: قُلْ: سَيْفٌ سَيْفٌ حُدِّدَ وَصُقِلَ أَيْضًا. ٩ 9
'Son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the LORD: Say: A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished:
قَدْ حُدِّدَ لِيَذْبَحَ ذَبْحًا. قَدْ صُقِلَ لِكَيْ يَبْرُقَ. فَهَلْ نَبْتَهِجُ؟ عَصَا ٱبْنِي تَزْدَرِي بِكُلِّ عُودٍ. ١٠ 10
It is sharpened that it may make a sore slaughter, it is furbished that it may glitter — or shall we make mirth? — against the rod of My son, contemning every tree.
وَقَدْ أَعْطَاهُ لِيُصْقَلَ لِكَيْ يُمْسَكَ بِٱلْكَفِّ. هَذَا ٱلسَّيْفُ قَدْ حُدِّدَ وَهُوَ مَصْقُولٌ لِكَيْ يُسَلَّمَ لِيَدِ ٱلْقَاتِلِ. ١١ 11
And it is given to be furbished, that it may be handled; the sword, it is sharpened, yea, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the slayer.
ٱصْرُخْ وَوَلْوِلْ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، لِأَنَّهُ يَكُونُ عَلَى شَعْبِي وَعَلَى كُلِّ رُؤَسَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. أَهْوَالٌ بِسَبَبِ ٱلسَّيْفِ تَكُونُ عَلَى شَعْبِي. لِذَلِكَ ٱصْفِقْ عَلَى فَخْذِكَ. ١٢ 12
Cry and wail, son of man; for it is upon My people, it is upon all the princes of Israel; they are thrust down to the sword with My people; smite therefore upon thy thigh.
لِأَنَّهُ ٱمْتِحَانٌ. وَمَاذَا إِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ أَيْضًا ٱلْعَصَا ٱلْمُزْدَرِيَةُ؟ يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ١٣ 13
For there is a trial; and what if it contemn even the rod? It shall be no more, saith the Lord GOD.
فَتَنَبَّأْ أَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ وَٱصْفِقْ كَفًّا عَلَى كَفٍّ، وَلْيُعَدِ ٱلسَّيْفُ ثَالِثَةً. هُوَ سَيْفُ ٱلْقَتْلَى، سَيْفُ ٱلْقَتْلِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ٱلْمُحِيقُ بِهِمْ. ١٤ 14
Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thy hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of those to be slain; it is the sword of the great one that is to be slain, which compasseth them about.
لِذَوَبَانِ ٱلْقَلْبِ وَتَكْثِيرِ ٱلْمَهَالِكِ، لِذَلِكَ جَعَلْتُ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَبْوَابِ سَيْفًا مُتَقَلِّبًا. آهِ! قَدْ جُعِلَ بَرَّاقًا. هُوَ مَصْقُولٌ لِلذَّبْحِ. ١٥ 15
I have set the point of the sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied; ah! it is made glittering, it is sharpened for slaughter.
ٱنْضَمَّ يَمِّنِ، ٱنْتَصِبْ شَمِّلْ، حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهَ حَدُّكَ. ١٦ 16
Go thee one way to the right, or direct thyself to the left; whither is thy face set?
وَأَنَا أَيْضًا أُصَفِّقُ كَفِّي عَلَى كَفِّي وَأُسَكِّنُ غَضَبِي. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمْتُ». ١٧ 17
I will also smite My hands together, and I will satisfy My fury; I the LORD have spoken it.'
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ١٨ 18
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
«وَأَنْتَ يَاٱبْنَ آدَمَ، عَيِّنْ لِنَفْسِكَ طَرِيقَيْنِ لِمَجِيءِ سَيْفِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ. مِنْ أَرْضٍ وَاحِدَةٍ تَخْرُجُ ٱلِٱثْنَتَانِ. وَٱصْنَعْ صُوَّةً، عَلَى رَأْسِ طَرِيقِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱصْنَعْهَا. ١٩ 19
'Now, thou son of man, make thee two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they twain shall come forth out of one land; and mark a signpost, mark it clear at the head of the way to the city.
عَيِّنْ طَرِيقًا لِيَأْتِيَ ٱلسَّيْفُ عَلَى رَبَّةِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، وَعَلَى يَهُوذَا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلْمَنِيعَةِ. ٢٠ 20
Thou shalt make a way, that the sword may come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the fortified.
لِأَنَّ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ قَدْ وَقَفَ عَلَى أُمِّ ٱلطَّرِيقِ، عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلطَّرِيقَيْنِ لِيَعْرِفَ عِرَافَةً. صَقَلَ ٱلسِّهَامَ، سَأَلَ بِٱلتَّرَافِيمِ، نَظَرَ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِدِ. ٢١ 21
For the king of Babylon standeth at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination; he shaketh the arrows to and fro, he inquireth of the teraphim, he looketh in the liver.
عَنْ يَمِينِهِ كَانَتِ ٱلْعِرَافَةُ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِوَضْعِ ٱلْمَجَانِقِ، لِفَتْحِ ٱلْفَمِ فِي ٱلْقَتْلِ، وَلِرَفْعِ ٱلصَّوْتِ بِٱلْهُتَافِ، لِوَضْعِ ٱلْمَجَانِقِ عَلَى ٱلْأَبْوَابِ، لِإِقَامَةِ مِتْرَسَةٍ لِبِنَاءِ بُرْجٍ. ٢٢ 22
In his right hand is the lot Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth for the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build forts.
وَتَكُونُ لَهُمْ مِثْلَ عِرَافَةٍ كَاذِبَةٍ فِي عُيُونِهِمِ ٱلْحَالِفِينَ لَهُمْ حَلْفًا. لَكِنَّهُ يَذْكُرُ ٱلْإِثْمَ حَتَّى يُؤْخَذُوا. ٢٣ 23
And it shall be unto them as a false divination in their sight, who have weeks upon weeks! but it bringeth iniquity to remembrance, that they may be taken.
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ ذَكَّرْتُمْ بِإِثْمِكُمْ عِنْدَ ٱنْكِشَافِ مَعَاصِيكُمْ لِإِظْهَارِ خَطَايَاكُمْ فِي جَمِيعِ أَعْمَالِكُمْ، فَمِنْ تَذْكِيرِكُمْ تُؤْخَذُونَ بِٱلْيَدِ. ٢٤ 24
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Because ye have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that your sins do appear in all your doings; because that ye are come to remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand.
«وَأَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلنَّجِسُ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ، رَئِيسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلَّذِي قَدْ جَاءَ يَوْمُهُ فِي زَمَانِ إِثْمِ ٱلنِّهَايَةِ، ٢٥ 25
And thou, O wicked one, that art to be slain, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end;
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱنْزِعِ ٱلْعَمَامَةَ. ٱرْفَعِ ٱلتَّاجَ. هَذِهِ لَا تِلْكَ. ٱرْفَعِ ٱلْوَضِيعَ، وَضَعِ ٱلرَّفِيعَ. ٢٦ 26
thus saith the Lord GOD: The mitre shall be removed, and the crown taken off; this shall be no more the same: that which is low shall be exalted, and that which is high abased.
مُنْقَلِبًا، مُنْقَلِبًا، مُنْقَلِبًا أَجْعَلُهُ! هَذَا أَيْضًا لَا يَكُونُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ ٱلَّذِي لَهُ ٱلْحُكْمُ فَأُعْطِيَهُ إِيَّاهُ. ٢٧ 27
A ruin, a ruin, a ruin, will I make it; this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is, and I will give it him.
«وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَتَنَبَّأْ وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، فِي بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَفِي تَعْيِيرِهِمْ، فَقُلْ: سَيْفٌ، سَيْفٌ مَسْلُولٌ لِلذَّبْحِ! مَصْقُولٌ لِلْغَايَةِ لِلْبَرِيقِ. ٢٨ 28
And thou, son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their taunt; and say thou: O sword, O sword keen-edged, furbished for the slaughter, to the uttermost, because of the glitterings;
إِذْ يَرَوْنَ لَكَ بَاطِلًا، إِذْ يَعْرِفُونَ لَكَ كَذِبًا، لِيَجْعَلُوكَ عَلَى أَعْنَاقِ ٱلْقَتْلَى ٱلْأَشْرَارِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءَ يَوْمُهُمْ فِي زَمَانِ إِثْمِ ٱلنِّهَايَةِ. ٢٩ 29
While they see falsehood unto thee, while they divine lies unto thee, to lay thee upon the necks of the wicked that are to be slain, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end!
فَهَلْ أُعِيدُهُ إِلَى غِمْدِهِ؟ أَلَا فِي ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي خُلِقْتِ فِيهِ فِي مَوْلِدِكِ أُحَاكِمُكِ! ٣٠ 30
Cause it to return into its sheath! — In the place where thou wast created, in the land of thine origin, will I judge thee.
وَأَسْكُبُ عَلَيْكِ غَضَبِي، وَأَنْفُخُ عَلَيْكِ بِنَارِ غَيْظِي، وَأُسَلِّمُكِ لِيَدِ رِجَالٍ مُتَحَرِّقِينَ مَاهِرِينَ لِلْإِهْلَاكِ. ٣١ 31
And I will pour out My indignation upon thee, I will blow upon thee with the fire of My wrath; and I will deliver thee into the hand of brutish men, skilful to destroy.
تَكُونِينَ أُكْلَةً لِلنَّارِ. دَمُكِ يَكُونُ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. لَا تُذْكَرِينَ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ تَكَلَّمْتُ». ٣٢ 32
Thou shalt be for fuel to the fire; thy blood shall be in the midst of the land, thou shalt be no more remembered; for I the LORD have spoken it.'
