حِزْقِيَال 22
| وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
| «وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، هَلْ تَدِينُ، هَلْ تَدِينُ مَدِينَةَ ٱلدِّمَاءِ؟ فَعَرِّفْهَا كُلَّ رَجَاسَاتِهَا، | ٢ 2 |
“As for you, son of man, will you judge her? Will you pass judgment on the city of bloodshed? Then confront her with all her abominations
| وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْمَدِينَةُ ٱلسَّافِكَةُ ٱلدَّمِ فِي وَسْطِهَا لِيَأْتِيَ وَقْتُهَا، ٱلصَّانِعَةُ أَصْنَامًا لِنَفْسِهَا لِتَتَنَجَّسَ بِهَا، | ٣ 3 |
and tell her that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘O city who brings her own doom by shedding blood within her walls and making idols to defile herself,
| قَدْ أَثِمْتِ بِدَمِكِ ٱلَّذِي سَفَكْتِ، وَنَجَّسْتِ نَفْسَكِ بِأَصْنَامِكِ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلْتِ، وَقَرَّبْتِ أَيَّامَكِ وَبَلَغْتِ سِنِيكِ، فَلِذَلِكَ جَعَلْتُكِ عَارًا لِلْأُمَمِ، وَسُخْرَةً لِجَمِيعِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي. | ٤ 4 |
you are guilty of the blood you have shed, and you are defiled by the idols you have made. You have brought your days to a close and have come to the end of your years. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations and a mockery to all the lands.
| ٱلْقَرِيبَةُ إِلَيْكِ وَٱلْبَعِيدَةُ عَنْكِ يَسْخَرُونَ مِنْكِ، يَا نَجِسَةَ ٱلِٱسْمِ، يَا كَثِيرَةَ ٱلشَّغَبِ. | ٥ 5 |
Those near and far will mock you, O infamous city, full of turmoil.
| هُوَذَا رُؤَسَاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ حَسَبَ ٱسْتِطَاعَتِهِ، كَانُوا فِيكِ لِأَجْلِ سَفْكِ ٱلدَّمِ. | ٦ 6 |
See how every prince of Israel within you has used his power to shed blood.
| فِيكِ أَهَانُوا أَبًا وَأُمًّا. فِي وَسْطِكِ عَامَلُوا ٱلْغَرِيبَ بِٱلظُّلْمِ. فِيكِ ٱضْطَهَدُوا ٱلْيَتِيمَ وَٱلْأَرْمَلَةَ. | ٧ 7 |
Father and mother are treated with contempt. Within your walls the foreign resident is exploited, the fatherless and the widow are oppressed.
| ٱزْدَرَيْتِ أَقْدَاسِي وَنَجَّسْتِ سُبُوتِي. | ٨ 8 |
You have despised My holy things and profaned My Sabbaths.
| كَانَ فِيكِ أُنَاسٌ وُشَاةٌ لِسَفْكِ ٱلدَّمِ، وَفِيكِ أَكَلُوا عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ. فِي وَسْطِكِ عَمِلُوا رَذِيلَةً. | ٩ 9 |
Among you are slanderous men bent on bloodshed; within you are those who eat on the mountain shrines and commit acts of indecency.
| فِيكِ كَشَفَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ عَوْرَةَ أَبِيهِ. فِيكِ أَذَلُّوا ٱلْمُتَنَجِّسَةَ بِطَمْثِهَا. | ١٠ 10 |
In you they have uncovered the nakedness of their fathers; in you they violate women during their menstrual impurity.
| إِنْسَانٌ فَعَلَ ٱلرِّجْسَ بِٱمْرَأَةِ قَرِيبِهِ. إِنْسَانٌ نَجَّسَ كَنَّتَهُ بِرَذِيلَةٍ. إِنْسَانٌ أَذَلَّ فِيكِ أُخْتَهُ بِنْتَ أَبِيهِ. | ١١ 11 |
One man commits an abomination with his neighbor’s wife; another wickedly defiles his daughter-in-law; and yet another violates his sister, his own father’s daughter.
| فِيكِ أَخَذُوا ٱلرَّشْوَةَ لِسَفْكِ ٱلدَّمِ. أَخَذْتِ ٱلرِّبَا وَٱلْمُرَابَحَةَ، وَسَلَبْتِ أَقْرِبَاءَكِ بِٱلظُّلْمِ، وَنَسِيتِنِي، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٢ 12 |
In you they take bribes to shed blood. You engage in usury, take excess interest, and extort your neighbors. But Me you have forgotten, declares the Lord GOD.
| «فَهَأَنَذَا قَدْ صَفَّقْتُ بِكَفِّي بِسَبَبِ خَطْفِكِ ٱلَّذِي خَطَفْتِ، وَبِسَبَبِ دَمِكِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ فِي وَسْطِكِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Now look, I strike My hands together against your unjust gain and against the blood you have shed in your midst.
| فَهَلْ يَثْبُتُ قَلْبُكِ أَوْ تَقْوَى يَدَاكِ فِي ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا أُعَامِلُكِ؟ أَنَا ٱلرَّبَّ تَكَلَّمْتُ وَسَأَفْعَلُ. | ١٤ 14 |
Will your courage endure or your hands be strong in the day I deal with you? I, the LORD, have spoken, and I will act.
| وَأُبَدِّدُكِ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَأُذَرِّيكِ فِي ٱلْأَرَاضِي، وَأُزِيلُ نَجَاسَتَكِ مِنْكِ. | ١٥ 15 |
I will disperse you among the nations and scatter you throughout the lands; I will purge your uncleanness.
| وَتَتَدَنَّسِينَ بِنَفْسِكِ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَتَعْلَمِينَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ». | ١٦ 16 |
And when you have defiled yourself in the eyes of the nations, then you will know that I am the LORD.’”
| وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ١٧ 17 |
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
| «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، قَدْ صَارَ لِي بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ زَغَلًا. كُلُّهُمْ نُحَاسٌ وَقَصْدِيرٌ وَحَدِيدٌ وَرَصَاصٌ فِي وَسْطِ كُورٍ. صَارُوا زَغَلَ فِضَّةٍ. | ١٨ 18 |
“Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to Me. All of them are copper, tin, iron, and lead inside the furnace; they are but the dross of silver.
| لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ حَيْثُ إِنَّكُمْ كُلَّكُمْ صِرْتُمْ زَغَلًا، فَلِذَلِكَ هَأَنَذَا أَجْمَعُكُمْ فِي وَسْطِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، | ١٩ 19 |
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because all of you have become dross, behold, I will gather you into Jerusalem.
| جَمْعَ فِضَّةٍ وَنُحَاسٍ وَحَدِيدٍ وَرَصَاصٍ وَقَصْدِيرٍ إِلَى وَسْطِ كُورٍ لِنَفْخِ ٱلنَّارِ عَلَيْهَا لِسَبْكِهَا، كَذَلِكَ أَجْمَعُكُمْ بِغَضَبِي وَسَخَطِي وَأَطْرَحُكُمْ وَأَسْبِكُكُمْ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Just as one gathers silver, copper, iron, lead, and tin into the furnace to melt with a fiery blast, so I will gather you in My anger and wrath, leave you there, and melt you.
| فَأَجْمَعُكُمْ وَأَنْفُخُ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي نَارِ غَضَبِي، فَتُسْبَكُونَ فِي وَسْطِهَا. | ٢١ 21 |
Yes, I will gather you together and blow on you with the fire of My wrath, and you will be melted within the city.
| كَمَا تُسْبَكُ ٱلْفِضَّةُ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْكُورِ، كَذَلِكَ تُسْبَكُونَ فِي وَسْطِهَا، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ سَكَبْتُ سَخَطِي عَلَيْكُمْ». | ٢٢ 22 |
As silver is melted in a furnace, so you will be melted within the city. Then you will know that I, the LORD, have poured out My wrath upon you.’”
| وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ٢٣ 23 |
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
| «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لَهَا: أَنْتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَطْهُرْ، لَمْ يُمْطَرْ عَلَيْهَا فِي يَوْمِ ٱلْغَضَبِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
“Son of man, say to her, ‘In the day of indignation, you are a land that has not been cleansed, upon which no rain has fallen.’
| فِتْنَةُ أَنْبِيَائِهَا فِي وَسْطِهَا كَأَسَدٍ مُزَمْجِرٍ يَخْطُفُ ٱلْفَرِيسَةَ. أَكَلُوا نُفُوسًا. أَخَذُوا ٱلْكَنْزَ وَٱلنَّفِيسَ، أَكْثَرُوا أَرَامِلَهَا فِي وَسْطِهَا. | ٢٥ 25 |
The conspiracy of the princes in her midst is like a roaring lion tearing its prey. They devour the people, seize the treasures and precious things, and multiply the widows within her.
| كَهَنَتُهَا خَالَفُوا شَرِيعَتِي وَنَجَّسُوا أَقْدَاسِي. لَمْ يُمَيِّزُوا بَيْنَ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ وَٱلْمُحَلَّلِ، وَلَمْ يَعْلَمُوا ٱلْفَرْقَ بَيْنَ ٱلنَّجِسِ وَٱلطَّاهِرِ، وَحَجَبُوا عُيُونَهُمْ عَنْ سُبُوتِي فَتَدَنَّسْتُ فِي وَسْطِهِمْ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Her priests do violence to My law and profane My holy things. They make no distinction between the holy and the common, and they fail to distinguish between the clean and the unclean. They disregard My Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them.
| رُؤَسَاؤُهَا فِي وَسْطِهَا كَذِئَابٍ خَاطِفَةٍ خَطْفًا لِسَفْكِ ٱلدَّمِ، لِإِهْلَاكِ ٱلنُّفُوسِ لِٱكْتِسَابِ كَسْبٍ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey, shedding blood, and destroying lives for dishonest gain.
| وَأَنْبِيَاؤُهَا قَدْ طَيَّنُوا لَهُمْ بِٱلطُّفَالِ، رَائِينَ بَاطِلًا وَعَارِفِينَ لَهُمْ كَذِبًا، قَائِلِينَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَٱلرَّبُّ لَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Her prophets whitewash these deeds by false visions and lying divinations, saying, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says,’ when the LORD has not spoken.
| شَعْبُ ٱلْأَرْضِ ظَلَمُوا ظُلْمًا، وَغَصَبُوا غَصْبًا، وَٱضْطَهَدُوا ٱلْفَقِيرَ وَٱلْمِسْكِينَ، وَظَلَمُوا ٱلْغَرِيبَ بِغَيْرِ ٱلْحَقِّ. | ٢٩ 29 |
The people of the land have practiced extortion and committed robbery. They have oppressed the poor and needy and have exploited the foreign resident without justice.
| وَطَلَبْتُ مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ رَجُلًا يَبْنِي جِدَارًا وَيَقِفُ فِي ٱلثَّغْرِ أَمَامِي عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ لِكَيْلَا أَخْرِبَهَا، فَلَمْ أَجِدْ. | ٣٠ 30 |
I searched for a man among them to repair the wall and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, so that I should not destroy it. But I found no one.
| فَسَكَبْتُ سَخَطِي عَلَيْهِمْ. أَفْنَيْتُهُمْ بِنَارِ غَضَبِي. جَلَبْتُ طَرِيقَهُمْ عَلَى رُؤُوسِهِمْ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ٣١ 31 |
So I have poured out My indignation upon them and consumed them with the fire of My fury. I have brought their ways down upon their own heads, declares the Lord GOD.”
