Ezekiel 28

وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلاَمُ الرَّبِّ قَائِلاً:

The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,

«يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، قُلْ لِرَئِيسِ صُورَ: هكَذَا قَالَ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ قَدِ ارْتَفَعَ قَلْبُكَ وَقُلْتَ: أَنَا إِلهٌ. فِي مَجْلِسِ الآلِهَةِ أَجْلِسُ فِي قَلْبِ الْبِحَارِ. وَأَنْتَ إِنْسَانٌ لاَ إِلهٌ، وَإِنْ جَعَلْتَ قَلْبَكَ كَقَلْبِ الآلِهَةِ!

Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:

هَا أَنْتَ أَحْكَمُ مِنْ دَانِيآلَ! سِرٌّ مَا لاَ يَخْفَى عَلَيْكَ.

Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:

وَبِحِكْمَتِكَ وَبِفَهْمِكَ حَصَّلْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ ثَرْوَةً، وَحَصَّلْتَ الذَّهَبَ وَالْفِضَّةَ فِي خَزَائِنِكَ.

With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:

بِكَثْرَةِ حِكْمَتِكَ فِي تِجَارَتِكَ كَثَّرْتَ ثَرْوَتَكَ، فَارْتَفَعَ قَلْبُكَ بِسَبَبِ غِنَاكَ.

By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:

فَلِذلِكَ هكَذَا قَالَ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ جَعَلْتَ قَلْبَكَ كَقَلْبِ الآلِهَةِ،

Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;

لِذلِكَ هأَنَذَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكَ غُرَبَاءَ، عُتَاةَ الأُمَمِ، فَيُجَرِّدُونَ سُيُوفَهُمْ عَلَى بَهْجَةِ حِكْمَتِكَ وَيُدَنِّسُونَ جَمَالَكَ.

Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.

يُنَزِّلُونَكَ إِلَى الْحُفْرَةِ، فَتَمُوتُ مَوْتَ الْقَتْلَى فِي قَلْبِ الْبِحَارِ.

They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas.

هَلْ تَقُولُ قَوْلاً أَمَامَ قَاتِلِكَ: أَنَا إِلهٌ؟ وَأَنْتَ إِنْسَانٌ لاَ إِلهٌ فِي يَدِ طَاعِنِكَ!

Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.

مَوْتَ الْغُلْفِ تَمُوتُ بِيَدِ الْغُرَبَاءِ، لأَنِّي أَنَا تَكَلَّمْتُ، يَقُولُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ».

Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.

وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلاَمُ الرَّبِّ قَائِلاً:

Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

«يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، ارْفَعْ مَرْثَاةً عَلَى مَلِكِ صُورَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: هكَذَا قَالَ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: أَنْتَ خَاتِمُ الْكَمَالِ، مَلآنٌ حِكْمَةً وَكَامِلُ الْجَمَالِ.

Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

كُنْتَ فِي عَدْنٍ جَنَّةِ اللهِ. كُلُّ حَجَرٍ كَرِيمٍ سِتَارَتُكَ، عَقِيقٌ أَحْمَرُ وَيَاقُوتٌ أَصْفَرُ وَعَقِيقٌ أَبْيَضُ وَزَبَرْجَدٌ وَجَزْعٌ وَيَشْبٌ وَيَاقُوتٌ أَزْرَقُ وَبَهْرَمَانُ وَزُمُرُّدٌ وَذَهَبٌ. أَنْشَأُوا فِيكَ صَنْعَةَ صِيغَةِ الفُصُوصِ وَتَرْصِيعِهَا يَوْمَ خُلِقْتَ.

Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.

أَنْتَ الْكَرُوبُ الْمُنْبَسِطُ الْمُظَلِّلُ، وَأَقَمْتُكَ. عَلَى جَبَلِ اللهِ الْمُقَدَّسِ كُنْتَ. بَيْنَ حِجَارَةِ النَّارِ تَمَشَّيْتَ.

Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

أَنْتَ كَامِلٌ فِي طُرُقِكَ مِنْ يَوْمَ خُلِقْتَ حَتَّى وُجِدَ فِيكَ إِثْمٌ.

Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.

بِكَثْرَةِ تِجَارَتِكَ مَلأُوا جَوْفَكَ ظُلْمًا فَأَخْطَأْتَ. فَأَطْرَحُكَ مِنْ جَبَلِ اللهِ وَأُبِيدُكَ أَيُّهَا الْكَرُوبُ الْمُظَلِّلُ مِنْ بَيْنِ حِجَارَةِ النَّارِ.

By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

قَدِ ارْتَفَعَ قَلْبُكَ لِبَهْجَتِكَ. أَفْسَدْتَ حِكْمَتَكَ لأَجْلِ بَهَائِكَ. سَأَطْرَحُكَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ، وَأَجْعَلُكَ أَمَامَ الْمُلُوكِ لِيَنْظُرُوا إِلَيْكَ.

Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

قَدْ نَجَّسْتَ مَقَادِسَكَ بِكَثْرَةِ آثَامِكَ بِظُلْمِ تِجَارَتِكَ، فَأُخْرِجُ نَارًا مِنْ وَسْطِكَ فَتَأْكُلُكَ، وَأُصَيِّرُكَ رَمَادًا عَلَى الأَرْضِ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْ كُلِّ مَنْ يَرَاكَ.

Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.

فَيَتَحَيَّرُ مِنْكَ جَمِيعُ الَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَكَ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ، وَتَكُونُ أَهْوَالاً وَلاَ تُوجَدُ بَعْدُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ».

All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلاَمُ الرَّبِّ قَائِلاً:

Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

«يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، اجْعَلْ وَجْهَكَ نَحْوَ صَيْدُونَ وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهَا،

Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,

وَقُلْ: هكَذَا قَالَ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هأَنَذَا عَلَيْكِ يَا صَيْدُونُ وَسَأَتَمَجَّدُ فِي وَسْطِكِ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ حِينَ أُجْرِي فِيهَا أَحْكَامًا وَأَتَقَدَّسُ فِيهَا.

And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.

وَأُرْسِلُ عَلَيْهَا وَبَأً وَدَمًا إِلَى أَزِقَّتِهَا، وَيُسْقَطُ الْجَرْحَى فِي وَسْطِهَا بِالسَّيْفِ الَّذِي عَلَيْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ.

For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

«فَلاَ يَكُونُ بَعْدُ لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ سُلاَّءٌ مُمَرِّرٌ وَلاَ شَوْكَةٌ مُوجِعَةٌ مِنْ كُلِّ الَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُمُ، الَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَهُمْ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ.

And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

هكَذَا قَالَ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُ: عِنْدَمَا أَجْمَعُ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ الشُّعُوبِ الَّذِينَ تَفَرَّقُوا بَيْنَهُمْ، وَأَتَقَدَّسُ فِيهِمْ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ الأُمَمِ، يَسْكُنُونَ فِي أَرْضِهِمِ الَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُهَا لِعَبْدِي يَعْقُوبَ،

Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given 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 الرَّبُّ إِلهُهُمْ».

And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.
