حِزْقِيَال 24

١ 1 وَكَانَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَيَّ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلتَّاسِعَةِ، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْعَاشِرِ، فِي ٱلْعَاشِرِ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ قَائِلًا:

Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

٢ 2 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، ٱكْتُبْ لِنَفْسِكَ ٱسْمَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمَ بِعَيْنِهِ. فَإِنَّ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ قَدِ ٱقْتَرَبَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمَ بِعَيْنِهِ.

Son of man, write thee the name of the day, even of this selfsame day; the king of Babylon drew close to Jerusalem this selfsame day.

٣ 3 وَٱضْرِبْ مَثَلًا لِلْبَيْتِ ٱلْمُتَمَرِّدِ وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: ضَعِ ٱلْقِدْرَ. ضَعْهَا وَأَيْضًا صُبَّ فِيهَا مَاءً.

And utter a parable to the rebellious house, and say to them, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Set on the caldron. Set it on, and also pour water into it.

٤ 4 اِجْمَعْ إِلَيْهَا قِطَعَهَا، كُلَّ قِطْعَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ: ٱلْفَخِذَ وَٱلْكَتِفَ. ٱمْلَأُوهَا بِخِيَارِ ٱلْعِظَامِ.

Gather the pieces of it into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.

٥ 5 خُذْ مِنْ خِيَارِ ٱلْغَنَمِ وَكُومَةَ ٱلْعِظَامِ تَحْتَهَا. أَغْلِهَا إِغْلَاءً فَتُسْلَقَ أَيْضًا عِظَامُهَا فِي وَسْطِهَا.

Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile of wood for the bones under the caldron. Make it boil well, yea, let the bones of it be boiled in the midst of it.

٦ 6 «لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: وَيْلٌ لِمَدِينَةِ ٱلدِّمَاءِ، ٱلْقِدْرِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا زِنْجَارُهَا، وَمَا خَرَجَ مِنْهَا زِنْجَارُهَا. أَخْرِجُوهَا قِطْعَةً قِطْعَةً. لَا تَقَعُ عَلَيْهَا قُرْعَةٌ.

Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city, to the caldron whose rust is therein, and whose rust has not gone out of it! Take out of it piece after piece. No lot has fallen upon it.

٧ 7 لِأَنَّ دَمَهَا فِي وَسْطِهَا. قَدْ وَضَعَتْهُ عَلَى ضِحِّ ٱلصَّخْرِ. لَمْ تُرِقْهُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ لِتُوَارَيهُ بِٱلتُّرَابِ.

For her blood is in the midst of her. She set it upon the bare rock. She did not pour it upon the ground to cover it with dust.

٨ 8 لِصُعُودِ ٱلْغَضَبِ، لِتُنْقَمَ نَقْمَةً، وَضَعْتُ دَمَهَا عَلَى ضِحِّ ٱلصَّخْرِ لِئَلَّا يُوارَى.

That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood upon the bare rock, that it should not be covered.

٩ 9 لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: وَيْلٌ لِمَدِينَةِ ٱلدِّمَاءِ. إِنِّي أَنَا أُعَظِّمُ كُومَتَهَا.

Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great.

١٠ 10 كَثِّرِ ٱلْحَطَبَ، أَضْرِمِ ٱلنَّارَ، أَنْضِجِ ٱللَّحْمَ، تَبِّلْهُ تَتْبِيلًا، وَلْتُحْرَقِ ٱلْعِظَامُ.

Heap on the wood; make the fire hot. Boil the flesh well, and make the broth thick. And let the bones be burned.

١١ 11 ثُمَّ ضَعْهَا فَارِغَةً عَلَى ٱلْجَمْرِ لِيَحْمَى نُحَاسُهَا وَيُحْرَقَ، فَيَذُوبَ قَذَرُهَا فِيهَا وَيَفْنَى زِنْجَارُهَا.

Then set it empty upon the coals of it, that it may be hot, and the brass of it may burn, and that the filthiness of it may be molten in it, that the scum of it may be consumed.

١٢ 12 بِمَشَقَّاتٍ تَعِبَتْ وَلَمْ تَخْرُجْ مِنْهَا كَثْرَةُ زِنْجَارِهَا. فِي ٱلنَّارِ زِنْجَارُهَا.

She has wearied herself with toil, yet her great scum does not go forth out of her, her scum by fire.

١٣ 13 فِي نَجَاسَتِكِ رَذِيلَةٌ لِأَنِّي طَهَّرْتُكِ فَلَمْ تَطْهُرِي، وَلَنْ تَطْهُرِي بَعْدُ مِنْ نَجَاسَتِكِ حَتَّى أُحِلَّ غَضَبِي عَلَيْكِ.

In thy filthiness is lewdness. Because I have cleansed thee and thou were not cleansed, thou shall not be cleansed from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my wrath toward thee to rest.

١٤ 14 أَنَا ٱلرَّبَّ تَكَلَّمْتُ. يَأْتِي فَأَفْعَلُهُ. لَا أُطْلِقُ وَلَا أُشْفِقُ وَلَا أَنْدَمُ. حَسَبَ طُرُقِكِ وَحَسَبَ أَعْمَالِكِ يَحْكُمُونَ عَلَيْكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

I, Jehovah, have spoken it. It shall come to pass, and I will do it. I will not go back. I will neither spare, nor will I relent. According to thy ways, and according to thy doings, they shall judge thee, says the lord Jehovah.

١٥ 15 وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

Also the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

١٦ 16 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، هَأَنَذَا آخُذُ عَنْكَ شَهْوَةَ عَيْنَيْكَ بِضَرْبَةٍ، فَلَا تَنُحْ وَلَا تَبْكِ وَلَا تَنْزِلْ دُمُوعُكَ.

Son of man, behold, I take the desire of thine eyes away from thee with a stroke. Yet thou shall neither mourn nor weep. Neither shall thy tears run down.

١٧ 17 تَنَهَّدْ سَاكِتًا. لَا تَعْمَلْ مَنَاحَةً عَلَى أَمْوَاتٍ. لُفَّ عِصَابَتَكَ عَلَيْكَ، وَٱجْعَلْ نَعْلَيْكَ فِي رِجْلَيْكَ، وَلَا تُغَطِّ شَارِبَيْكَ، وَلَا تَأْكُلْ مِنْ خُبْزِ ٱلنَّاسِ».

Sigh, but not aloud. Make no mourning for the dead. Bind thy headdress upon thee, and put thy shoes upon thy feet. And do not cover thy lips, and do not eat the bread of men.

١٨ 18 فَكَلَّمْتُ ٱلشَّعْبَ صَبَاحًا وَمَاتَتْ زَوْجَتِي مَسَاءً. وَفَعَلْتُ فِي ٱلْغَدِ كَمَا أُمِرْتُ.

So I spoke to the people in the morning, and at evening my wife died. And I did in the morning as I was commanded.

١٩ 19 فَقَالَ لِيَ ٱلشَّعْبُ: «أَلَا تُخْبِرُنَا مَا لَنَا وَهَذِهِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ صَانِعُهَا؟»

And the people said to me, Will thou not tell us what these things are to us, that thou do so?

٢٠ 20 فَأَجَبْتُهُمْ: «قَدْ كَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

Then I said to them, The word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

٢١ 21 كَلِّمْ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا مُنَجِّسٌ مَقْدِسِي فَخْرَ عِزِّكُمْ، شَهْوَةَ أَعْيُنِكُمْ وَلَذَّةَ نُفُوسِكُمْ. وَأَبْنَاؤُكُمْ وَبَنَاتُكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ خَلَّفْتُمْ يَسْقُطُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ،

Speak to the house of Israel, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul has compassion. And your sons and your daughters whom ye have left behind shall fall by the sword.

٢٢ 22 وَتَفْعَلُونَ كَمَا فَعَلْتُ: لَا تُغَطُّونَ شَوَارِبَكُمْ وَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ خُبْزِ ٱلنَّاسِ.

And ye shall do as I have done. Ye shall not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of men.

٢٣ 23 وَتَكُونُ عَصَائِبُكُمْ عَلَى رُؤُوسِكُمْ، وَنِعَالُكُمْ فِي أَرْجُلِكُمْ. لَا تَنُوحُونَ وَلَا تَبْكُونَ وَتَفْنَوْنَ بِآثَامِكُمْ. تَئِنُّونَ بَعْضُكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ.

And your coverings shall be upon your heads, and your shoes upon your feet. Ye shall not mourn nor weep, but ye shall pine away in your iniquities, and moan one toward another.

٢٤ 24 وَيَكُونُ حِزْقِيَالُ لَكُمْ آيَةً. مِثْلَ كُلِّ مَا صَنَعَ تَصْنَعُونَ. إِذَا جَاءَ هَذَا، تَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Thus Ezekiel shall be to you a sign, according to all that he has done ye shall do. When this comes, then ye shall know that I am the lord Jehovah.

٢٥ 25 وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، أَفَلَا يَكُونُ فِي يَوْمٍ آخُذُ عَنْهُمْ عِزَّهُمْ، سُرُورَ فَخْرِهِمْ، شَهْوَةَ عُيُونِهِمْ وَرَفْعَةَ نَفْسِهِمْ: أَبْنَاءَهُمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ،

And thou, son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that upon which they set their heart-their sons and their daughters-

٢٦ 26 أَنْ يَأْتِيَ إِلَيْكَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْمُنْفَلِتُ لِيُسْمِعَ أُذُنَيْكَ.

that in that day he who escapes shall come to thee, to cause thee to hear it with thine ears?

٢٧ 27 فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ يَنْفَتِحُ فَمُكَ لِلْمُنْفَلِتِ وَتَتَكَلَّمُ، وَلَا تَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدُ أَبْكَمَ. وَتَكُونُ لَهُمْ آيَةً، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».

In that day thy mouth shall be opened to him who is escaped, and thou shall speak, and no more be mute. So thou shall be a sign to them, and they shall know that I am Jehovah.
