«وَأَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، فَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ لِبْنَةً وَضَعْهَا أَمَامَكَ، وَٱرْسُمْ عَلَيْهَا مَدِينَةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ. ١ 1
“But you, son of man, take a brick for yourself and place it before you. Then carve the city of Jerusalem on it.
وَٱجْعَلْ عَلَيْهَا حِصَارًا، وَٱبْنِ عَلَيْهَا بُرْجًا، وَأَقِمْ عَلَيْهَا مِتْرَسَةً، وَٱجْعَلْ عَلَيْهَا جُيُوشًا، وَأَقِمْ عَلَيْهَا مَجَانِقَ حَوْلَهَا. ٢ 2
Then lay siege against it, and build forts against it. Raise up an assault ramp against it and set camps around it. Place battering rams all around it.
وَخُذْ أَنْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ صَاجًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَٱنْصِبْهُ سُورًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَثَبِّتْ وَجْهَكَ عَلَيْهَا، فَتَكُونَ فِي حِصَارٍ وَتُحَاصِرَهَا. تِلْكَ آيَةٌ لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣ 3
Then take for yourself an iron pan and use it as an iron wall between yourself and the city and set your face against it, for it will be under siege, and you are to put the siege against it. This will be a sign to the house of Israel.
«وَٱتَّكِئْ أَنْتَ عَلَى جَنْبِكَ ٱلْيَسَارِ، وَضَعْ عَلَيْهِ إِثْمَ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. عَلَى عَدَدِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا تَتَّكِئُ عَلَيْهِ تَحْمِلُ إِثْمَهُمْ. ٤ 4
Then, lie on your left side and put the sin of the house of Israel on it; you will carry their sin for the number of the days that you lie down against the house of Israel.
وَأَنَا قَدْ جَعَلْتُ لَكَ سِنِي إِثْمِهِمْ حَسَبَ عَدَدِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، ثَلَاثَ مِئَةِ يَوْمٍ وَتِسْعِينَ يَوْمًا، فَتَحْمِلُ إِثْمَ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٥ 5
I myself am assigning to you one day to represent each year of their punishment: 390 days! In this way, you will carry the sin of the house of Israel.
فَإِذَا أَتْمَمْتَهَا، فَٱتَّكِئْ عَلَى جَنْبِكَ ٱلْيَمِينِ أَيْضًا، فَتَحْمِلَ إِثْمَ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا. فَقَدْ جَعَلْتُ لَكَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ عِوَضًا عَنْ سَنَةٍ. ٦ 6
When you have completed these days, then lie down a second time on your right side, for you will carry the sin of the house of Judah for forty days. I am assigning to you one day for each year.
فَثَبِّتْ وَجْهَكَ عَلَى حِصَارِ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَذِرَاعُكَ مَكْشُوفَةٌ، وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهَا. ٧ 7
Set your face toward Jerusalem that is under siege, and with your arm uncovered prophesy against it.
وَهَأَنَذَا أَجْعَلُ عَلَيْكَ رُبُطًا فَلَا تَقْلِبُ مِنْ جَنْبٍ إِلَى جَنْبٍ حَتَّى تُتَمِّمَ أَيَّامَ حِصَارِكَ. ٨ 8
For behold! I am placing bonds on you so you will not turn from one side to the other until you have completed the days of your siege.
«وَخُذْ أَنْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ قَمْحًا وَشَعِيرًا وَفُولًا وَعَدَسًا وَدُخْنًا وَكَرْسَنَّةَ وَضَعْهَا فِي وِعَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَٱصْنَعْهَا لِنَفْسِكَ خُبْزًا كَعَدَدِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي تَتَّكِئُ فِيهَا عَلَى جَنْبِكَ. ثَلَاثَ مِئَةِ يَوْمٍ وَتِسْعِينَ يَوْمًا تَأْكُلُهُ. ٩ 9
Take for yourself wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt; put them in a single container and make bread for yourself according to the number of the days that you will lie upon your side. For 390 days you will eat it.
وَطَعَامُكَ ٱلَّذِي تَأْكُلُهُ يَكُونُ بِٱلْوَزْنِ. كُلَّ يَوْمٍ عِشْرِينَ شَاقِلًا. مِنْ وَقْتٍ إِلَى وَقْتٍ تَأْكُلُهُ. ١٠ 10
The food you will eat will be by weight, twenty shekels per day, and you will eat it at set times each day.
وَتَشْرَبُ ٱلْمَاءَ بِٱلْكَيْلِ، سُدْسَ ٱلْهِينِ، مِنْ وَقْتٍ إِلَى وَقْتٍ تَشْرَبُهُ. ١١ 11
Then you will drink water, measured out to a sixth of a hin, and you will drink it at set times.
وَتَأْكُلُ كَعْكًا مِنَ ٱلشَّعِيرِ. عَلَى ٱلْخُرْءِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْرُجُ مِنَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ تَخْبِزُهُ أَمَامَ عُيُونِهِمْ». ١٢ 12
You will eat it as barley cakes, but you will bake it on excrement of human dung within their sight!”
وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «هَكَذَا يَأْكُلُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ خُبْزَهُمُ ٱلنَّجِسَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَطْرُدُهُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ». ١٣ 13
For Yahweh says, “This means that the bread that the people of Israel will eat will be unclean, there among the nations where I will banish them.”
فَقُلْتُ: «آهِ، يَا سَيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، هَا نَفْسِي لَمْ تَتَنَجَّسْ. وَمِنْ صِبَايَ إِلَى ٱلْآنَ لَمْ آكُلْ مِيتَةً أَوْ فَرِيسَةً، وَلَا دَخَلَ فَمِي لَحْمٌ نَجِسٌ». ١٤ 14
But I said, “Alas, Lord Yahweh! I have never been unclean! I have never eaten either anything that died or anything killed by animals, from my youth until now, and foul meat has never entered my mouth!”
فَقَالَ لِي: «اُنْظُرْ. قَدْ جَعَلْتُ لَكَ خِثْيَ ٱلْبَقَرِ بَدَلَ خُرْءِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ، فَتَصْنَعُ خُبْزَكَ عَلَيْهِ». ١٥ 15
So he said to me, “Look! I have given you cow manure instead of human dung so you can prepare your bread over that.”
وَقَالَ لِي: «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، هَأَنَذَا أُكَسِّرُ قِوَامَ ٱلْخُبْزِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَيَأْكُلُونَ ٱلْخُبْزَ بِٱلْوَزْنِ وَبِٱلْغَمِّ، وَيَشْرَبُونَ ٱلْمَاءَ بِٱلْكَيْلِ وَبِٱلْحَيْرَةِ، ١٦ 16
He also said to me, “Son of man! Behold! I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they will eat bread while rationing it in anxiety and drink water while rationing it in trembling.
لِكَيْ يُعْوِزَهُمُ ٱلْخُبْزُ وَٱلْمَاءُ، وَيَتَحَيَّرُوا ٱلرَّجُلُ وَأَخُوهُ وَيَفْنَوْا بِإِثْمِهِمْ». ١٧ 17
Because they will lack bread and water, every man will be dismayed at his brother and waste away because of their iniquity.”
