Ezekiel 30

1 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

1 وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

2 “Son of man, prophesy and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Wail, ‘Alas for that day!’

2 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ تَنَبَّأْ وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: وَلْوِلُوا: يَا لِلْيَوْمِ!

3 For the day is near, the Day of the LORD is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations.

3 لِأَنَّ ٱلْيَوْمَ قَرِيبٌ، وَيَوْمٌ لِلرَّبِّ قَرِيبٌ، يَوْمُ غَيْمٍ. يَكُونُ وَقْتًا لِلْأُمَمِ.

4 A sword will come against Egypt, and there will be anguish in Cush when the slain fall in Egypt, its wealth is taken away, and its foundations are torn down.

4 وَيَأْتِي سَيْفٌ عَلَى مِصْرَ، وَيَكُونُ فِي كُوشَ خَوْفٌ شَدِيدٌ، عِنْدَ سُقُوطِ ٱلْقَتْلَى فِي مِصْرَ، وَيَأْخُذُونَ ثَرْوَتَهَا وَتُهْدَمُ أُسُسُهَا.

5 Cush, Put, and Lud, and all the various peoples, as well as Libya and the men of the covenant land, will fall with Egypt by the sword.

5 يَسْقُطُ مَعَهُمْ بِٱلسَّيْفِ كُوشُ وَفُوطُ وَلُودُ وَكُلُّ ٱللَّفِيفِ، وَكُوبُ وَبَنُو أَرْضِ ٱلْعَهْدِ.

6 For this is what the LORD says: The allies of Egypt will fall, and her proud strength will collapse. From Migdol to Syene they will fall by the sword within her, declares the Lord GOD.

6 هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: وَيَسْقُطُ عَاضِدُو مِصْرَ، وَتَنْحَطُّ كِبْرِيَاءُ عِزَّتِهَا. مِنْ مَجْدَلَ إِلَى أَسْوَانَ يَسْقُطُونَ فِيهَا بِٱلسَّيْفِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

7 They will be desolate among desolate lands, and their cities will lie among ruined cities.

7 فَتُقْفِرُ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي ٱلْمُقْفِرَةِ، وَتَكُونُ مُدُنُهَا فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْمُدُنِ ٱلْخَرِبَةِ.

8 Then they will know that I am the LORD when I set fire to Egypt and all her helpers are shattered.

8 فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ عِنْدَ إِضْرَامِي نَارًا فِي مِصْرَ، وَيُكْسَرُ جَمِيعُ أَعْوَانِهَا.

9 On that day messengers will go out from Me in ships to frighten Cush out of complacency. Anguish will come upon them on the day of Egypt’s doom. For it is indeed coming.

9 فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ قِبَلِي رُسُلٌ فِي سُفُنٍ لِتَخْوِيفِ كُوشَ ٱلْمُطْمَئِنَّةِ، فَيَأْتِي عَلَيْهِمْ خَوْفٌ عَظِيمٌ كَمَا فِي يَوْمِ مِصْرَ، لِأَنَّهُ هُوَذَا يَأْتِي.

10 This is what the Lord GOD says: I will put an end to the hordes of Egypt by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.

10 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنِّي أُبِيدُ ثَرْوَةَ مِصْرَ بِيَدِ نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ.

11 He and his people with him, the most ruthless of the nations, will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt and fill the land with the slain.

11 هُوَ وَشَعْبُهُ مَعَهُ، عُتَاةُ ٱلْأُمَمِ يُؤْتَى بِهِمْ لِخَرَابِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَيُجَرِّدُونَ سُيُوفَهُمْ عَلَى مِصْرَ وَيَمْلَأُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِنَ ٱلْقَتْلَى.

12 I will make the streams dry up and sell the land to the wicked. By the hands of foreigners I will bring desolation upon the land and everything in it. I, the LORD, have spoken.

12 وَأَجْعَلُ ٱلْأَنْهَارَ يَابِسَةً وَأَبِيعُ ٱلْأَرْضَ لِيَدِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، وَأُخْرِبُ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَمِلْأَهَا بِيَدِ ٱلْغُرَبَاءِ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبَّ تَكَلَّمْتُ.

13 This is what the Lord GOD says: I will destroy the idols and put an end to the images in Memphis. There will no longer be a prince in Egypt, and I will instill fear in that land.

13 هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: وَأُبِيدُ ٱلْأَصْنَامَ وَأُبَطِّلُ ٱلْأَوْثَانَ مِنْ نُوفَ. وَلَا يَكُونُ بَعْدُ رَئِيسٌ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَأُلْقِي ٱلرُّعْبَ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.

14 I will lay waste Pathros, set fire to Zoan, and execute judgment on Thebes.

14 وَأُخْرِبُ فَتْرُوسَ، وَأُضْرِمُ نَارًا في صُوعَنَ، وَأُجْرِي أَحْكَامًا فِي نُو.

15 I will pour out My wrath on Pelusium, the stronghold of Egypt, and cut off the crowds of Thebes.

15 وَأَسْكُبُ غَضَبِي عَلَى سِينَ، حِصْنِ مِصْرَ، وَأَسْتَأْصِلُ جُمْهُورَ نُو.

16 I will set fire to Egypt, Pelusium will writhe in anguish, Thebes will be split open, and Memphis will face daily distress.

16 وَأُضْرِمُ نَارًا فِي مِصْرَ. سِينُ تَتَوَجَّعُ تَوَجُّعًا، وَنُو تَكُونُ لِلتَّمْزِيقِ، وَلِنُوفَ ضِيقَاتٌ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ.

17 The young men of On and Pi-beseth will fall by the sword, and those cities will go into captivity.

17 شُبَّانُ آوَنَ وَفِيبِسْتَةَ يَسْقُطُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَهُمَا تَذْهَبَانِ إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ.

18 The day will be darkened in Tahpanhes when I break the yoke of Egypt and her proud strength comes to an end. A cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.

18 وَيُظْلِمُ ٱلنَّهَارُ فِي تَحْفَنْحِيسَ عِنْدَ كَسْرِي أَنْيَارَ مِصْرَ هُنَاكَ. وَتَبْطُلُ فِيهَا كِبْرِيَاءُ عِزِّهَا. أَمَّا هِيَ فَتَغْشَاهَا سَحَابَةٌ، وَتَذْهَبُ بَنَاتُهَا إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ.

19 So I will execute judgment on Egypt, and they will know that I am the LORD.”

19 فَأُجْرِي أَحْكَامًا فِي مِصْرَ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».

20 In the eleventh year, on the seventh day of the first month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

20 وَكَانَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْحَادِيَةِ عَشَرَةَ، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ، فِي ٱلسَّابِعِ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ، أَنَّ كَلَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ صَارَ إِلَيَّ قَائِلًا:

21 “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. See, it has not been bound up for healing, or splinted for strength to hold the sword.

21 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، إِنِّي كَسَرْتُ ذِرَاعَ فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ، وَهَا هِيَ لَنْ تُجْبَرُ بِوَضْعِ رَفَائِدَ وَلَا بِوَضْعِ عِصَابَةٍ لِتُجْبَرَ فَتُمْسِكَ ٱلسَّيْفَ.

22 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt. I will break his arms, both the strong one and the one already broken, and will make the sword fall from his hand.

22 لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا عَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ، فَأُكَسِّرُ ذِرَاعَيْهِ ٱلْقَوِيَّةَ وَٱلْمَكْسُورَةَ، وَأُسْقِطُ ٱلسَّيْفَ مِنْ يَدِهِ.

23 I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands.

23 وَأُشَتِّتُ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَأُذَرِّيهِمْ فِي ٱلْأَرَاضِي.

24 I will strengthen the arms of Babylon’s king and place My sword in his hand, but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, who will groan before him like a mortally wounded man.

24 وَأُشَدِّدُ ذِرَاعَيْ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ وَأَجْعَلُ سَيْفِي فِي يَدِهِ، وَأُكَسِّرُ ذِرَاعَيْ فِرْعَوْنَ فَيَئِنُّ قُدَّامَهُ أَنِينَ ٱلْجَرِيحِ.

25 I will strengthen the arms of Babylon’s king, but Pharaoh’s arms will fall limp. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I place My sword in the hand of Babylon’s king, and he wields it against the land of Egypt.

25 وَأُشَدِّدُ ذِرَاعَيْ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، أَمَّا ذِرَاعَا فِرْعَوْنَ فَتَسْقُطَانِ، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ حِينَ أَجْعَلُ سَيْفِي فِي يَدِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، فَيَمُدُّهُ عَلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.

26 I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”

26 وَأُشَتِّتُ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ وَأُذَرِّيهِمْ فِي ٱلْأَرَاضِي، فَيَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».
