وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ١ 1
A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لِرَئِيسِ صُورَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱرْتَفَعَ قَلْبُكَ وَقُلْتَ: أَنَا إِلَهٌ. فِي مَجْلِسِ ٱلْآلِهَةِ أَجْلِسُ فِي قَلْبِ ٱلْبِحَارِ. وَأَنْتَ إِنْسَانٌ لَا إِلَهٌ، وَإِنْ جَعَلْتَ قَلْبَكَ كَقَلْبِ ٱلْآلِهَةِ! ٢ 2
“Son of man, tell the ruler of Tyre this is what the Lord God says: You are so proud of yourself, saying, ‘I'm a god! I sit on my throne like a god in the middle of the sea.’ But you're only a man. You're not a god, even though you think you are one.
هَا أَنْتَ أَحْكَمُ مِنْ دَانِيآلَ! سِرٌّ مَا لَا يَخْفَى عَلَيْكَ. ٣ 3
You even think you're wiser than Daniel and there's no secret that's hidden from you!
وَبِحِكْمَتِكَ وَبِفَهْمِكَ حَصَّلْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ ثَرْوَةً، وَحَصَّلْتَ ٱلذَّهَبَ وَٱلْفِضَّةَ فِي خَزَائِنِكَ. ٤ 4
Yes, you have used your wisdom and cleverness to make yourself rich, collecting plenty of gold and silver for your treasury.
بِكَثْرَةِ حِكْمَتِكَ فِي تِجَارَتِكَ كَثَّرْتَ ثَرْوَتَكَ، فَٱرْتَفَعَ قَلْبُكَ بِسَبَبِ غِنَاكَ. ٥ 5
You became wealthy through your superb trading skills, but your wealth only made you proud.
فَلِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ جَعَلْتَ قَلْبَكَ كَقَلْبِ ٱلْآلِهَةِ، ٦ 6
So this is what the Lord God says: Because you think that you're a god,
لِذَلِكَ هَأَنَذَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكَ غُرَبَاءَ، عُتَاةَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، فَيُجَرِّدُونَ سُيُوفَهُمْ عَلَى بَهْجَةِ حِكْمَتِكَ وَيُدَنِّسُونَ جَمَالَكَ. ٧ 7
watch as I bring foreigners to attack you. They are more cruel than any other nation. They will use their swords to destroy you and your wonderful wisdom; they will humble your proud glory.
يُنَزِّلُونَكَ إِلَى ٱلْحُفْرَةِ، فَتَمُوتُ مَوْتَ ٱلْقَتْلَى فِي قَلْبِ ٱلْبِحَارِ. ٨ 8
They will drag you down into the grave. You will die horribly out there in the sea.
هَلْ تَقُولُ قَوْلًا أَمَامَ قَاتِلِكَ: أَنَا إِلَهٌ؟ وَأَنْتَ إِنْسَانٌ لَا إِلَهٌ فِي يَدِ طَاعِنِكَ! ٩ 9
Are you still going to claim, ‘I'm a god,’ to those who are killing you? You'll just be another human victim, not a god, in the eyes of your attackers.
مَوْتَ ٱلْغُلْفِ تَمُوتُ بِيَدِ ٱلْغُرَبَاءِ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا تَكَلَّمْتُ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». ١٠ 10
You will be killed like some vile person by these foreigners. I myself have spoken, declares the Lord God.”
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ١١ 11
Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، ٱرْفَعْ مَرْثَاةً عَلَى مَلِكِ صُورَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَنْتَ خَاتِمُ ٱلْكَمَالِ، مَلآنٌ حِكْمَةً وَكَامِلُ ٱلْجَمَالِ. ١٢ 12
“Son of man, sing a funeral song for the king of Tyre and tell him this is what the Lord God says: Once you were complete and perfect, full of wisdom and flawless in beauty.
كُنْتَ فِي عَدْنٍ جَنَّةِ ٱللهِ. كُلُّ حَجَرٍ كَرِيمٍ سِتَارَتُكَ، عَقِيقٌ أَحْمَرُ وَيَاقُوتٌ أَصْفَرُ وَعَقِيقٌ أَبْيَضُ وَزَبَرْجَدٌ وَجَزْعٌ وَيَشْبٌ وَيَاقُوتٌ أَزْرَقُ وَبَهْرَمَانُ وَزُمُرُّدٌ وَذَهَبٌ. أَنْشَأُوا فِيكَ صَنْعَةَ صِيغَةِ ٱلفُصُوصِ وَتَرْصِيعِهَا يَوْمَ خُلِقْتَ. ١٣ 13
You were there in Eden, God's garden. You wore all kinds of precious stones: carnelian, topaz, and amethyst; beryl, onyx, and jasper; lapis lazuli, turquoise, and emerald. They were placed in gold mountings and settings using skilled craftsmanship, and were made on the day when you were created.
أَنْتَ ٱلْكَرُوبُ ٱلْمُنْبَسِطُ ٱلْمُظَلِّلُ، وَأَقَمْتُكَ. عَلَى جَبَلِ ٱللهِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ كُنْتَ. بَيْنَ حِجَارَةِ ٱلنَّارِ تَمَشَّيْتَ. ١٤ 14
I gave you the position of guardian cherub, and I anointed you. You lived on God's holy mountain and you walked among the stones of fire.
أَنْتَ كَامِلٌ فِي طُرُقِكَ مِنْ يَوْمَ خُلِقْتَ حَتَّى وُجِدَ فِيكَ إِثْمٌ. ١٥ 15
You were innocent in everything you did from the day you were created until you were found to be doing evil.
بِكَثْرَةِ تِجَارَتِكَ مَلَأُوا جَوْفَكَ ظُلْمًا فَأَخْطَأْتَ. فَأَطْرَحُكَ مِنْ جَبَلِ ٱللهِ وَأُبِيدُكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْكَرُوبُ ٱلْمُظَلِّلُ مِنْ بَيْنِ حِجَارَةِ ٱلنَّارِ. ١٦ 16
You were so busy with all your trading schemes that they destroyed you inside, leading you to sin and filling you with violence. So I sent you away in disgrace from God's mountain, and I removed you from your position as guardian cherub from your place among the stones of fire.
قَدِ ٱرْتَفَعَ قَلْبُكَ لِبَهْجَتِكَ. أَفْسَدْتَ حِكْمَتَكَ لِأَجْلِ بَهَائِكَ. سَأَطْرَحُكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَأَجْعَلُكَ أَمَامَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ لِيَنْظُرُوا إِلَيْكَ. ١٧ 17
You became proud because of your beauty, you ruined your wisdom because you thought you were so wonderful. So I threw you down to the ground and I made sure kings saw what happened to you.
قَدْ نَجَّسْتَ مَقَادِسَكَ بِكَثْرَةِ آثَامِكَ بِظُلْمِ تِجَارَتِكَ، فَأُخْرِجُ نَارًا مِنْ وَسْطِكَ فَتَأْكُلُكَ، وَأُصَيِّرُكَ رَمَادًا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْ كُلِّ مَنْ يَرَاكَ. ١٨ 18
By all your sins and your dishonest trading you have made your sanctuaries unclean. So I had fire come from inside you, and it burned you up. I turned you into ashes on the ground as everybody there watched.
فَيَتَحَيَّرُ مِنْكَ جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَكَ بَيْنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَتَكُونُ أَهْوَالًا وَلَا تُوجَدُ بَعْدُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». ١٩ 19
All who know you among the nations are horrified at what happened to you. Disaster has brought you down and you're finished forever.”
وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ٢٠ 20
A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
«يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، ٱجْعَلْ وَجْهَكَ نَحْوَ صَيْدُونَ وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهَا، ٢١ 21
“Son of man, face towards Sidon and prophesy against her.
وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا عَلَيْكِ يَا صَيْدُونُ وَسَأَتَمَجَّدُ فِي وَسْطِكِ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ حِينَ أُجْرِي فِيهَا أَحْكَامًا وَأَتَقَدَّسُ فِيهَا. ٢٢ 22
Tell them this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, Sidon, for I'm condemning you, and I will be vindicated by what happens to you. People will know that I am the Lord when I punish her and show my holy character through her experience.
وَأُرْسِلُ عَلَيْهَا وَبَأً وَدَمًا إِلَى أَزِقَّتِهَا، وَيُسْقَطُ ٱلْجَرْحَى فِي وَسْطِهَا بِٱلسَّيْفِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَيْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٣ 23
I'm going to send a disease to plague her, and have people killed in her streets. Those who are killed will fall inside the city as the enemy attacks with swords from every side. Then they will know that I am the Lord.
«فَلَا يَكُونُ بَعْدُ لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ سُلَّاءٌ مُمَرِّرٌ وَلَا شَوْكَةٌ مُوجِعَةٌ مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُمُ، ٱلَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَهُمْ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٤ 24
The people of Israel will no longer have to put up with these people who are thorns in their side, painful brambles and sharp thorns who treat Israel with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord God.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُ: عِنْدَمَا أَجْمَعُ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ تَفَرَّقُوا بَيْنَهُمْ، وَأَتَقَدَّسُ فِيهِمْ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ ٱلْأُمَمِ، يَسْكُنُونَ فِي أَرْضِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُهَا لِعَبْدِي يَعْقُوبَ، ٢٥ 25
This is what the Lord God says: When I bring back the people of Israel from the nations where they've been scattered. I will show my holy character through them as everyone watches. Then they will live in their own country, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
وَيَسْكُنُونَ فِيهَا آمِنِينَ وَيَبْنُونَ بُيُوتًا وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُومًا، وَيَسْكُنُونَ فِي أَمْنٍ عِنْدَمَا أُجْرِي أَحْكَامًا عَلَى جَمِيعِ مُبْغِضِيهِمْ مِنْ حَوْلِهِمْ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُهُمْ». ٢٦ 26
They will live there in safety, building houses and planting vineyards. They will live there in safety when I punish all those around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord their God.”
