< حِزْقِيَال 23 >

وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ١ 1
The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
«يَاٱبْنَ آدَمَ، كَانَ ٱمْرَأَتَانِ ٱبْنَتَا أُمٍّ وَاحِدَةٍ، ٢ 2
“Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother.
وَزَنَتَا بِمِصْرَ. فِي صِبَاهُمَا زَنَتَا. هُنَاكَ دُغْدِغَتْ ثُدِيُّهُمَا، وَهُنَاكَ تَزَغْزَغَتْ تَرَائِبُ عُذْرَتِهِمَا. ٣ 3
They acted as prostitutes in Egypt in the time of their youth. They acted as prostitutes there. Their breasts were squeezed and their virgin nipples were fondled there.
وَٱسْمُهُمَا: أُهُولَةُ ٱلْكَبِيرَةُ، وَأُهُولِيبَةُ أُخْتُهَا. وَكَانَتَا لِي، وَوَلَدَتَا بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ. وَٱسْمَاهُمَا: ٱلسَّامِرَةُ «أُهُولَةُ»، وَأُورُشَلِيمُ «أُهُولِيبَةُ». ٤ 4
Their names were Oholah—the older sister—and Oholibah—her younger sister. Then they became mine and bore sons and daughters. Their names mean this: Oholah means Samaria, and Oholibah means Jerusalem.
وَزَنَتْ أُهُولَةُ مِنْ تَحْتِي وَعَشِقَتْ مُحِبِّيهَا، أَشُّورَ ٱلْأَبْطَالَ ٥ 5
But Oholah acted as a prostitute even when she was mine; she lusted for her lovers, for the Assyrians who were dominant,
ٱللَّابِسِينَ ٱلْأَسْمَانْجُونِيَّ وُلَاةً وَشِحَنًا، كُلُّهُمْ شُبَّانُ شَهْوَةٍ، فُرْسَانٌ رَاكِبُونَ ٱلْخَيْلَ. ٦ 6
the governor who wore blue, and for his officials, who were strong and handsome, all of them men riding on horses.
فَدَفَعَتْ لَهُمْ عُقْرَهَا لِمُخْتَارِي بَنِي أَشُّورَ كُلِّهِمْ، وَتَنَجَّسَتْ بِكُلِّ مَنْ عَشِقَتْهُمْ بِكُلِّ أَصْنَامِهِمْ. ٧ 7
So she gave herself as a prostitute to them, to all the best of Assyria's men, and she made herself unclean with everyone she lusted for—and with all their idols.
وَلَمْ تَتْرُكْ زِنَاهَا مِنْ مِصْرَ أَيْضًا، لِأَنَّهُمْ ضَاجَعُوهَا فِي صِبَاهَا، وَزَغْزَغُوا تَرَائِبَ عِذْرَتِهَا وَسَكَبُوا عَلَيْهَا زِنَاهُمْ. ٨ 8
For she had not left her prostitute behavior behind in Egypt, when they had slept with her when she had been a young girl, when they first began to fondle her virgin breasts, when they first began to pour out their promiscuous behavior on her.
لِذَلِكَ سَلَّمْتُهَا لِيَدِ عُشَّاقِهَا، لِيَدِ بَنِي أَشُّورَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَشِقَتْهُمْ. ٩ 9
Therefore I gave her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians for whom she lusted.
هُمْ كَشَفُوا عَوْرَتَهَا. أَخَذُوا بَنِيهَا وَبَنَاتِهَا، وَذَبَحُوهَا بِٱلسَّيْفِ، فَصَارَتْ عِبْرَةً لِلنِّسَاءِ. وَأَجْرَوْا عَلَيْهَا حُكْمًا. ١٠ 10
They uncovered her nakedness, took her sons and daughters, killed her with the sword, and she became notorious among other women, so they executed judgment on her.
«فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ أُخْتُهَا أُهُولِيبَةُ ذَلِكَ أَفْسَدَتْ فِي عِشْقِهَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْهَا، وَفِي زِنَاهَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ زِنَا أُخْتِهَا. ١١ 11
Her sister Oholibah saw this, but she lusted even more passionately and acted like a prostitute even more than her sister.
عَشِقَتْ بَنِي أَشُّورَ ٱلْوُلَاةَ وَٱلشِّحَنَ ٱلْأَبْطَالَ ٱللَّابِسِينَ أَفْخَرَ لِبَاسٍ، فُرْسَانًا رَاكِبِينَ ٱلْخَيْلَ كُلُّهُمْ شُبَّانُ شَهْوَةٍ. ١٢ 12
She lusted for the Assyrians, the governors and the dominating officials who dressed impressively, who were men riding horses. All of them were strong, handsome men.
فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّهَا قَدْ تَنَجَّسَتْ، وَلِكِلْتَيْهِمَا طَرِيقٌ وَاحِدَةٌ. ١٣ 13
I saw that she had made herself unclean. It was the same for both sisters.
وَزَادَتْ زِنَاهَا. وَلَمَّا نَظَرَتْ إِلَى رِجَالٍ مُصَوَّرِينَ عَلَى ٱلْحَائِطِ، صُوَرُ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ مُصَوَّرَةٍ بِمُغْرَةٍ، ١٤ 14
Then she increased her prostitution even more. She saw men carved on walls, figures of Chaldeans painted in red,
مُنَطَّقِينَ بِمَنَاطِقَ عَلَى أَحْقَائِهِمْ، عَمَائِمُهُمْ مَسْدُولَةٌ عَلَى رُؤُوسِهِمْ. كُلُّهُمْ فِي ٱلْمَنْظَرِ رُؤَسَاءُ مَرْكَبَاتٍ شِبْهُ بَنِي بَابِلَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ أَرْضُ مِيلَادِهِمْ، ١٥ 15
wearing belts around their waists, with flowing turbans on their heads. All of them had the appearance of officers of chariot troops, the likeness of sons of Babylonia, whose native land is Chaldea.
عَشِقَتْهُمْ عِنْدَ لَمْحِ عَيْنَيْهَا إِيَّاهُمْ، وَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِمْ رُسُلًا إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ. ١٦ 16
As soon as her eyes saw them, she lusted for them, so she sent out messengers to them in Chaldea.
فَأَتَاهَا بَنُو بَابِلَ فِي مَضْجَعِ ٱلْحُبِّ وَنَجَّسُوهَا بِزِنَاهُمْ، فَتَنَجَّسَتْ بِهِمْ، وجَفَتْهُمْ نَفْسُهَا. ١٧ 17
Then the Babylonians came to her and to her bed of lust, and they made her unclean with their promiscuousness. By what she had done she was made unclean, so she turned herself away from them in disgust.
وَكَشَفَتْ زِنَاهَا وَكَشَفَتْ عَوْرَتَهَا، فَجَفَتْهَا نَفْسِي، كَمَا جَفَتْ نَفْسِي أُخْتَهَا. ١٨ 18
When she displayed her acts of prostitution and uncovered her nakedness, I turned away from her, just as I had turned away in disgust from her sister.
وَأَكْثَرَتْ زِنَاهَا بِذِكْرِهَا أَيَّامَ صِبَاهَا ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا زَنَتْ بِأَرْضِ مِصْرَ. ١٩ 19
Then she increased her prostitution as she remembered the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in the land of Egypt.
وَعَشِقَتْ مَعْشُوقِيهِمِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَحْمُهُمْ كَلَحْمِ ٱلْحَمِيرِ وَمَنِيُّهُمْ كَمَنِيِّ ٱلْخَيْلِ. ٢٠ 20
So she lusted for her lovers, whose private parts were like those of donkeys, and whose reproductive emissions were like those of horses.
وَٱفْتَقَدْتِ رَذِيلَةَ صِبَاكِ بِزَغْزَغَةِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ تَرَائِبَكِ لِأَجْلِ ثَدْيِ صِبَاكِ. ٢١ 21
This is how you committed shameful acts of your youth, when the Egyptians fondled your nipples and squeezed your young breasts.
«لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ يَا أُهُولِيبَةُ، هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أُهَيِّجُ عَلَيْكِ عُشَّاقَكِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَفَتْهُمْ نَفْسُكِ، وَآتِي بِهِمْ عَلَيْكِ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ: ٢٢ 22
Therefore, Oholibah, the Lord Yahweh says this, 'Behold! I will turn your lovers against you. Those from whom you turned away, I will bring them against you from every side:
بَنِي بَابِلَ وَكُلَّ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، فَقُودَ وَشُوعَ وَقُوعَ، وَمَعَهُمْ كُلُّ بَنِي أَشُّورَ، شُبَّانُ شَهْوَةٍ، وُلَاةٌ وَشِحَنٌ كُلُّهُمْ رُؤَسَاءُ مَرْكَبَاتٍ وَشُهَرَاءُ. كُلُّهُمْ رَاكِبُونَ ٱلْخَيْلَ. ٢٣ 23
the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them, strong, handsome men, governors and commanders, all of them are officers and men of reputation, all of them riding on horses.
فَيَأْتُونَ عَلَيْكِ بِأَسْلِحَةٍ مَرْكَبَاتٍ وَعَجَلَاتٍ، وَبِجَمَاعَةِ شُعُوبٍ يُقِيمُونَ عَلَيْكِ ٱلتُّرْسَ وَٱلْمِجَنَّ وَٱلْخُوذَةَ مِنْ حَوْلِكِ، وَأُسَلِّمُ لَهُمُ ٱلْحُكْمَ فَيَحْكُمُونَ عَلَيْكِ بِأَحْكَامِهِمْ. ٢٤ 24
They will come against you with weapons, and with chariots and wagons, and with a great crowd of people. They will set large shields, small shields, and helmets against you all around. I will give them the opportunity to punish you, and they will punish you with their actions.
وَأَجْعَلُ غَيْرَتِي عَلَيْكِ فَيُعَامِلُونَكِ بِٱلسَّخَطِ. يَقْطَعُونَ أَنْفَكِ وَأُذُنَيْكِ، وَبَقِيَّتُكِ تَسْقُطُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. يَأْخُذُونَ بَنِيكِ وَبَنَاتِكِ، وَتُؤْكَلُ بَقِيَّتُكِ بِٱلنَّارِ. ٢٥ 25
For I will set my jealous anger on you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will cut off your noses and your ears, and your survivors will fall by the sword. They will take away your sons and your daughters, and your survivors will be devoured by fire.
وَيَنْزِعُونَ عَنْكِ ثِيَابَكِ، وَيَأْخُذُونَ أَدَوَاتِ زِينَتِكِ. ٢٦ 26
They will strip you of your clothes and take away all of your jewelry.
وَأُبَطِّلُ رَذِيلَتَكِ عَنْكِ وَزِنَاكِ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، فَلَا تَرْفَعِينَ عَيْنَيْكِ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَا تَذْكُرِينَ مِصْرَ بَعْدُ. ٢٧ 27
So I will remove your shameful behavior from you and your acts of prostitution from the land of Egypt. You will not lift up your eyes toward them with longing, and you will think of Egypt no longer.'
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أُسَلِّمُكِ لِيَدِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَبْغَضْتِهِمْ، لِيَدِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَفَتْهُمْ نَفْسُكِ. ٢٨ 28
For the Lord Yahweh says this, 'Behold! I will give you into the hand of the ones you hate, back into the hand of the ones from whom you had turned away.
فَيُعَامِلُونَكِ بِٱلْبُغْضَاءِ وَيَأْخُذُونَ كُلَّ تَعَبِكِ، وَيَتْرُكُونَكِ عُرْيَانَةً وَعَارِيَةً، فَتَنْكَشِفُ عَوْرَةُ زِنَاكِ وَرَذِيلَتُكِ وَزِنَاكِ. ٢٩ 29
They will deal with you hatefully; they will take all your possessions and abandon you naked and bare, and your nakedness will be uncovered just as when you engaged in promiscuity and prostitutions.
أَفْعَلُ بِكِ هَذَا لِأَنَّكِ زَنَيْتِ وَرَاءَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، لِأَنَّكِ تَنَجَّسْتِ بِأَصْنَامِهِمْ. ٣٠ 30
These things will be done to you in your acting like a prostitute, lusting after nations by which you became unclean with their idols.
فِي طَرِيقِ أُخْتِكِ سَلَكْتِ فَأَدْفَعُ كَأْسَهَا لِيَدِكِ. ٣١ 31
You have walked in the way of your sister, so I will put her cup of punishment into your hand.'
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنَّكِ تَشْرَبِينَ كَأْسَ أُخْتِكِ ٱلْعَمِيقَةَ ٱلْكَبِيرَةَ. تَكُونِينَ لِلضَّحِكِ وَلِلِٱسْتِهْزَاءِ. تَسَعُ كَثِيرًا. ٣٢ 32
The Lord Yahweh says this, 'You will drink your sister's cup that is deep and large. You will become a laughingstock and a subject for derision—this cup contains a great amount.
تَمْتَلِئِينَ سُكْرًا وَحُزْنًا، كَأْسَ ٱلتَّحَيُّرِ وَٱلْخَرَابِ، كَأْسَ أُخْتِكِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ. ٣٣ 33
You will be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, the cup of horror and devastation; the cup of your sister Samaria.
فَتَشْرَبِينَهَا وَتَمْتَصِّينَهَا وَتَقْضَمِينَ شُقَفَهَا وَتَجْتَثِّينَ ثَدْيَيْكِ، لِأَنِّي تَكَلَّمْتُ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٣٤ 34
You will drink it and drain it empty; then you will shatter it and tear your breasts with the pieces. For I have declared it—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكِ نَسِيتِنِي وَطَرَحْتِنِي وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِكِ، فَتَحْمِلِي أَيْضًا رَذِيلَتَكِ وَزِنَاكِ». ٣٥ 35
Therefore, the Lord Yahweh says this, 'Because you have forgotten me and thrown me away behind your back, so also you will bear the consequences of your shameful behavior and acts of sexual immorality.'”
وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، أَتَحْكُمُ عَلَى أُهُولَةَ وَأُهُولِيبَةَ؟ بَلْ أَخْبِرْهُمَا بِرَجَاسَاتِهِمَا، ٣٦ 36
Yahweh said to me, “Son of man, will you judge Oholah and Oholibah? So present to them their disgusting actions,
لِأَنَّهُمَا قَدْ زَنَتَا وَفِي أَيْدِيهِمَا دَمٌ، وَزَنَتَا بِأَصْنَامِهِمَا وَأَيْضًا أَجَازَتَا بَنِيهِمَا ٱلَّذِينَ وَلَدَتَاهُمْ لِي ٱلنَّارَ أَكْلًا لَهَا. ٣٧ 37
since they have committed adultery, and since there is blood on their hands. They have committed adultery with their idols, and they have even caused their sons to pass through the fire, as food for their idols.
وَفَعَلَتَا أَيْضًا بِي هَذَا: نَجَّسَتَا مَقْدِسِي فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ وَدَنَّسَتَا سُبُوتِي. ٣٨ 38
Then they continue to do this to me: They make my sanctuary unclean, and on the same day they defile my Sabbaths.
وَلَمَّا ذَبَحَتَا بَنِيهِمَا لِأَصْنَامِهِمَا، أَتَتَا فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ إِلَى مَقْدِسِي لِتُنَجِّسَاهُ. فَهُوَذَا هَكَذَا فَعَلَتَا فِي وَسْطِ بَيْتِي. ٣٩ 39
For when they had slaughtered their children for their idols, then they came to my sanctuary on the same day to defile it! So behold! This is what they have done in the middle of my house.
بَلْ أَرْسَلْتُمَا إِلَى رِجَالٍ آتِينَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ. ٱلَّذِينَ أُرْسِلَ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولٌ فَهُوَذَا جَاءُوا. هُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ لِأَجْلِهِمِ ٱسْتَحْمَمْتِ وَكَحَّلْتِ عَيْنَيْكِ وَتَحَلَّيْتِ بِٱلْحُلِيِّ، ٤٠ 40
You sent out for men who came from far away, to whom messengers had been sent—now behold. They indeed came, those for whom you bathed, painted your eyes, and adorned yourself with jewelry.
وَجَلَسْتِ عَلَى سَرِيرٍ فَاخِرٍ أَمَامَهُ مَائِدَةٌ مُنَضَّضَةٌ، وَوَضَعْتِ عَلَيْهَا بَخُورِي وَزَيْتِي. ٤١ 41
There you sat on a beautiful bed and at a table arranged before it where you placed my incense and my oil.
وَصَوْتُ جُمْهُورٍ مُتَرَفِّهِينَ مَعَهَا، مَعَ أُنَاسٍ مِنْ رَعَاعِ ٱلْخَلْقِ. أُتِيَ بِسَكَارَى مِنَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، ٱلَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا أَسْوِرَةً عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمَا وَتَاجَ جَمَالٍ عَلَى رُؤُوسِهِمَا. ٤٢ 42
So the sound of a noisy crowd was around her; including all kinds of men, even Sabeans were brought in from the wilderness, and they put bracelets on their hands and beautiful crowns on their heads.
فَقُلْتُ عَنِ ٱلْبَالِيَةِ فِي ٱلزِّنَا: ٱلْآنَ يَزْنُونَ زِنًا مَعَهَا وَهِيَ. ٤٣ 43
Then I said of her who was worn out by adultery, 'Now they will be sexually immoral with her, and she with them.'
فَدَخَلُوا عَلَيْهَا كَمَا يُدْخَلُ عَلَى ٱمْرَأَةٍ زَانِيَةٍ. هَكَذَا دَخَلُوا عَلَى أُهُولَةَ وَعَلَى أُهُولِيبَةَ ٱلْمَرْأَتَيْنِ ٱلزَّانِيَتَيْنِ. ٤٤ 44
They went in to her and slept with her as men go in to be with a prostitute. In this way they slept with Oholah and Oholibah, who were immoral women.
وَٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلصِّدِّيقُونَ هُمْ يَحْكُمُونَ عَلَيْهِمَا حُكْمَ زَانِيَةٍ وَحُكْمَ سَفَّاكَةِ ٱلدَّمِ، لِأَنَّهُمَا زَانِيَتَانِ وَفِي أَيْدِيهِمَا دَمٌ. ٤٥ 45
But righteous men will pass judgment and punish them as adulteresses, and they will punish them with the sentence for those who shed blood, because they are adulteresses and blood is on their hands.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنِّي أُصْعِدُ عَلَيْهِمَا جَمَاعَةً وَأُسَلِّمُهُمَا لِلْجَوْرِ وَٱلنَّهْبِ. ٤٦ 46
So the Lord Yahweh says this: I will raise up a company against them and give them up to be terrorized and plundered.
وَتَرْجُمُهُمَا ٱلْجَمَاعَةُ بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ، وَيُقَطِّعُونَهُمَا بِسُيُوفِهِمْ، وَيَذْبَحُونَ أَبْنَاءَهُمَا وَبَنَاتِهِمَا، وَيُحْرِقُونَ بُيُوتَهُمَا بِٱلنَّارِ. ٤٧ 47
Then that company will stone them with stones and cut them down with their swords. They will kill their sons and daughters and burn down their houses.
فَأُبَطِّلُ ٱلرَّذِيلَةَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَتَتَأَدَّبُ جَمِيعُ ٱلنِّسَاءِ وَلَا يَفْعَلْنَ مِثْلَ رَذِيلَتِكُمَا. ٤٨ 48
For I will remove shameful behavior from the land and discipline all the women so they will no longer act like prostitutes.
وَيَرُدُّونَ عَلَيْكُمَا رَذِيلَتَكُمَا، فَتَحْمِلَانِ خَطَايَا أَصْنَامِكُمَا، وَتَعْلَمَانِ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». ٤٩ 49
So they will set your shameful behavior against you. You will bear the guilt of your sins with your idols, and in this way you will know that I am the Lord Yahweh.”
