Yehezkiel 7
1 TUHAN berbicara kepadaku,
A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
2 "Hai manusia fana, Aku, TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, hendak mengatakan ini kepada tanah Israel: Inilah akhir riwayat seluruh negeri ini!"
“Son of man, this is what the Lord God says to the people living in Israel: The end is here! The end has arrived throughout the country.
3 TUHAN berkata, "Hai Israel, sekarang sudah tiba kesudahanmu. Engkau akan merasakan murka-Ku. Engkau Kuadili sesuai dengan perbuatanmu yang keji.
Now is the end for you! I'm going to direct my anger against you. I'm judging you for your actions and will pay you back for the offensive things you've done.
4 Aku tidak akan kasihan atau memberi ampun kepadamu. Aku akan menghukum engkau sesuai dengan segala kekejian yang telah kauperbuat. Maka tahulah engkau bahwa Akulah TUHAN."
I won't have any pity for you, or show you any mercy. I'm going to punish you for what you've done, for your disgusting sins. Then you'll know that I am the Lord.
5 Inilah yang dikatakan TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi kepada bangsa Israel, "Bencana demi bencana akan menimpa kamu.
This is what the Lord God says: Watch out! Disaster after disaster is coming!
6 Sekarang segalanya telah berakhir. Inilah kesudahanmu. Tidak ada harapan lagi bagimu.
The end is here! The end has come, and it's coming for you! Watch out! This is the end!
7 Segalanya telah berakhir bagimu, hai bangsa yang tinggal di tanah ini. Sekarang tidak ada lagi pesta-pesta di mezbah-mezbah pegunungan, yang ada hanyalah kekacauan saja.
You people living in the land, the consequences of your actions have come full circle. The time has come, the day is near— shouts of panic on the mountains and not shouts of joy.
8 Tak lama lagi kamu akan merasakan murka-Ku yang dahsyat. Kamu Kuadili sesuai dengan perbuatanmu. Akan Kubalaskan kepadamu segala perbuatanmu yang keji.
Very shortly I'm going to show you how angry I am with you. I will judge you by what you have done, and punish you for all your disgusting sins.
9 Aku tidak akan kasihan atau memberi ampun kepadamu. Aku akan menghukum kamu sesuai dengan segala kekejian yang telah kamu perbuat. Maka tahulah kamu bahwa Akulah TUHAN dan Akulah yang menghukum kamu."
I won't have any pity for you or show you any mercy. I'm going to punish you for what you've done, for your disgusting sins. Then you will know that it is I, the Lord, who is attacking you.
10 Hari bencana bagi bangsa Israel telah tiba. Kekerasan merajalela. Kesombongan mencapai puncaknya.
Can't you see? The day is here! It has arrived! The consequences of your actions have come full circle—the walking stick has blossomed, pride has come into full bloom.
11 Kekejaman mengakibatkan lebih banyak kejahatan. Seluruh kekayaan, keagungan dan kejayaan mereka akan habis tak berbekas.
Their way of violence has turned into a rod to punish them for their wickedness. None of them will survive—none of that whole crowd, and none of their wealth or honor.
12 Waktunya segera datang, harinya sudah dekat! Si pembeli dan si penjual tidak mendapat keuntungan apa-apa, sebab hukuman Allah akan menimpa semua orang.
The time has come; the day is here! Buyers, don't celebrate thinking you'll get a good deal; sellers, don't cry thinking you're going to make a loss—because punishment is coming to everyone.
13 Tak ada pedagang yang akan sempat mendapat kembali apa yang telah dijualnya, sebab murka Allah menimpa siapa saja. Orang yang jahat tidak akan selamat.
Sellers won't ever get back the purchase price while they're still alive. I'm not going to change the plan I have revealed that applies to everyone. People who go on sinning won't survive.
14 Trompet berbunyi dan semua orang bersiap-siap. Tetapi tak seorang pun berangkat ke medan perang, sebab murka Allah menimpa semua orang.
Even though the trumpet call to arms has sounded, even though all the preparations have been made, no one is ready to fight, because I am angry with everyone.
15 Di jalan-jalan kota ada peperangan, di rumah-rumah ada wabah penyakit dan kelaparan. Siapa saja yang berada di luar kota akan mati dalam peperangan, dan yang tinggal di kota akan menjadi kurban penyakit dan kelaparan.
Outside the city are armed attacks; inside are disease and starvation. Those in the countryside will be killed by the sword, and those in the city will be destroyed by starvation and disease.
16 Sebagian akan luput dan melarikan diri ke pegunungan. Di situ mereka akan seperti burung-burung dara yang dihalau dari lembah-lembah; semuanya akan merintih karena dosa-dosa mereka.
Those who do survive will escape and go to live in the mountains. They will sigh like the doves of the valley, each person thinking about their own sins.
17 Setiap orang akan menjadi lemah tangannya dan goyah lututnya.
Every hand will go limp, and every knee will go weak.
18 Mereka akan memakai kain karung dan sekujur tubuhnya akan gemetar. Kepala mereka akan digunduli dan mereka dipermalukan.
They will put on clothes made of sackcloth, and they will be totally terrified. They will all be ashamed and shave their heads in mourning.
19 Emas dan perak akan mereka buang di jalan seperti sampah, sebab pada hari TUHAN melampiaskan amarah-Nya, emas dan perak itu tak dapat menyelamatkan mereka, malahan telah menjerumuskan mereka ke dalam dosa. Mereka tak dapat menggunakannya untuk memuaskan nafsu atau untuk mengisi perut mereka.
They will throw away their silver in the streets and treat their gold as if it's something unclean. Their silver and gold won't be able to save them when the day of the Lord's anger comes. Their money won't satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs. In fact this was the problem that caused their sin in the first place.
20 Dahulu mereka bangga akan permata mereka yang indah, tetapi karena mereka memakainya untuk membuat berhala-berhala yang menjijikkan, TUHAN membuat harta mereka itu menjadi sesuatu yang mengerikan.
They were so proud of their beautiful jewelry that they used it to make their disgusting images and decorate their offensive idols. So I'm going to turn these idols into unclean things for them.
21 TUHAN berkata kepada bangsa Israel, "Aku akan membiarkan orang-orang asing merampoki kamu. Penjahat-penjahat akan merampas hartamu dan menajiskannya.
I'm going to hand these things over as plunder to foreigners and as loot to the wicked people of the earth, who will make them unclean.
22 Aku tak akan turun tangan bila Rumah-Ku dirusakkan dan dicemarkan oleh perampok-perampok.
I will look away as they make my precious place unclean. Men of violence will enter and make it unclean.
23 Seluruh negeri menjadi kacau; di mana-mana ada pembunuhan dan kekejaman.
Get the chains ready, because the country is full of blood being spilled by violent crimes, and the city itself is full of violence.
24 Bangsa-bangsa yang paling ganas akan Kudatangkan untuk menduduki rumah-rumahmu. Jagoan-jagoanmu yang paling perkasa akan gentar apabila bangsa-bangsa itu Kubiarkan menghancurkan tempat-tempat ibadahmu.
So I'm going to bring the most evil of all the nations to take over their houses. I will put an end to the pride of the powerful, and their holy places will be made unclean.
25 Mereka ditimpa kesedihan dan putus asa, lalu mencari kedamaian, tetapi tidak mereka temukan.
Absolutely terrified, the people will look for peace, but won't find it.
26 Malapetaka dan kabar buruk akan datang terus-menerus. Kamu akan memohon agar para nabi mau meramal, tetapi mereka tak bisa. Juga para imam tidak punya apa-apa untuk diajarkan kepada umat, dan para pemimpin kehabisan nasihat.
Disaster after disaster will come down on them, and rumor after rumor. They will ask for a vision from a prophet, but there won't be any, and there won't be any instructions from the priests or advice from the elders either.
27 Raja akan meratap, putra mahkota putus asa dan rakyat akan gemetar ketakutan. Aku akan menghukum kamu sesuai dengan segala perbuatanmu dan menghakimi kamu seperti kamu menghakimi orang lain. Maka tahulah kamu bahwa Akulah TUHAN."
The king will mourn, the prince will be devastated, and no one in the country will know what to do. I will do to them as they have done to others; I will judge them as they have judged others. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
