Yehezkiel 19
1 Allah menyuruh aku menyanyikan ratapan ini untuk dua orang pangeran Israel:
And you take up a lamentation because of [the] princes of Israel.
2 Ibumu bagaikan singa betina yang hebat dan luar biasa. Ia membesarkan anak-anaknya di antara singa-singa perkasa.
And you will say what? [was] mother your a lioness between lions she lay down in among young lions she reared cubs her.
3 Salah seekor anaknya dididiknya dan diajarinya mencari mangsa. Maka jadilah ia singa dewasa penerkam dan pemakan manusia.
And she brought up one of cubs her a young lion it was and it learned to tear prey human[s] it devoured.
4 Bangsa-bangsa yang mendengar tentang dia berkumpul untuk menangkapnya. Ia dijebak dalam lubang dan ditawan, lalu diseret ke Mesir dengan kaitan.
And they heard concerning it nations in pit their it was caught and they brought it with hooks to [the] land of Egypt.
5 Sia-sia si induk menunggu anaknya; lalu ia tahu bahwa hilanglah harapannya. Maka anaknya yang lain dilatihnya menjadi singa ganas dan perkasa.
And she saw that she waited it was lost hope her and she took one of cubs her a young lion she made it.
6 Anak singa itu menjadi dewasa dan bergaul dengan singa-singa lainnya. Ia belajar mencari mangsa, dan menjadi pemakan orang juga.
And it went about in among lions a young lion it was and it learned to tear prey human[s] it devoured.
7 Benteng-benteng didobraknya, kota-kota dirusaknya. Seluruh penduduk negeri menjadi gentar mendengar aumnya yang bergelegar.
And it knew widows its and cities their it laid waste and it was desolate [the] land and what fills it from [the] sound of roaring its.
8 Tetapi bangsa-bangsa dari wilayah sekelilingnya menyergapnya dari mana-mana. Mereka tebarkan jala untuk menangkapnya, dan ia pun terjebak dalam perangkap mereka.
And they set on it nations all around from provinces and they spread out over it net their in pit their it was caught.
9 Ia dimasukkan ke dalam kurungan singa lalu dibawa ke negeri Babel, menghadap raja. Ia dijaga kuat supaya aumnya jangan kedengaran lagi di atas bukit-bukit Israel yang tinggi.
And they put it in cage with hooks and they brought it to [the] king of Babylon they brought it in strongholds so that not it will be heard voice its again to [the] mountains of Israel.
10 Ibumu bagaikan pohon anggur permai yang tumbuh di kebun dekat anak sungai. Ia menjadi rindang dan berbuah sebab air di situ berlimpah-limpah.
Mother your like vine in blood your at water planted fruitful and full of branches it was from waters many.
11 Cabangnya kuat, tak mudah dipatahkan layak dijadikan tongkat kerajaan. Puncaknya tinggi menjulang menjangkau awan-awan. Ia dikagumi semua orang sebab ia tinggi dan daunnya rindang.
And they belonged to it branches of strength to scepters of rulers and it was lofty stature its above between branches and it was seen by height its by [the] abundance of branches its.
12 Tetapi ia dicabut oleh tangan-tangan yang marah, kemudian dicampakkan ke tanah. Angin Timur bertiup, mengeringkan buahnya yang segar. Dahannya patah, menjadi kering lalu dibakar.
And it was plucked up in rage to the ground it was thrown down and [the] wind of the east it dried up fruit its they were torn off and they became dry [the] branch of strength its a fire it consumed it.
13 Kini ia ditanam di padang pasir, di tanah gersang dan tidak berair.
And now [it is] planted in the wilderness in a land dry and thirst.
14 Batang anggur itu dijilat api menjalar; cabang dan buahnya habis terbakar. Dahannya kini tanpa kekuatan; tak mungkin dijadikan tongkat kerajaan. Itulah ratapan yang berulang-ulang dinyanyikan oleh umat.
And it went out fire from [the] branch of shoots its fruit its it consumed and not it was in it a branch of strength a scepter to rule [is] a lamentation it and it has become a lamentation.
