Ezekiel 6

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

1 وَأَوْحَى إِلَيَّ الرَّبُّ قَائِلاً:

2 “Son of man, set your face against the mountains of Israel and prophesy against them.

2 «يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ، الْتَفِتْ بِوَجْهِكَ نَحْوَ جِبَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهَا،

3 You are to say: ‘O mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD! This is what the Lord GOD says to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys: I am about to bring a sword against you, and I will destroy your high places.

3 وَقُلْ: يَا جِبَالَ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَصْغِي إِلَى كَلِمَةِ السَّيِّدِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي يَقُولُ لِلْجِبَالِ وَالتِّلالِ وَالأَنْهَارِ وَالأَوْدِيَةِ: هَا أَنَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكُمْ سَيْفاً وَأَهْدِمُ مُرْتَفَعَاتِكُمْ،

4 Your altars will be demolished and your incense altars will be smashed; and I will cast down your slain before your idols.

4 فَتُصْبِحُ مَذَابِحُكُمْ أَطْلالاً، وَتَتَحَطَّمُ مَذَابِحُ بَخُورِكُمْ وَأَطْرَحُ قَتْلاكُمْ أَمَامَ أَصْنَامِكُمْ،

5 I will lay the corpses of the Israelites before their idols and scatter your bones around your altars.

5 وَأُلْقِي جُثَثَ أَبْنَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَمَامَ أَوْثَانِهِمْ، وَأُذَرِّي عِظَامَكُمْ حَوْلَ مَذَابِحِكُمْ.

6 Wherever you live, the cities will be laid waste and the high places will be demolished, so that your altars will be laid waste and desecrated, your idols smashed and obliterated, your incense altars cut down, and your works blotted out.

6 وَحَيْثُمَا تُقِيمُونَ تَتَحَوَّلُ مُدُنُكُمْ إِلَى أَطْلالٍ، وَمُرْتَفَعَاتُ عِبَادَتِكُمْ إِلَى خَرَائِبَ، وَأَصْنَامُكُمْ إِلَى حُطَامٍ وَدَمَارٍ، وَمَذَابِحُ بَخُورِكُمْ إِلَى أَنْقَاضٍ، وَأَعْمَالُكُمْ إِلَى فَنَاءٍ،

7 The slain will fall among you, and you will know that I am the LORD.

7 وَيَسْقُطُ الْقَتِيلُ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ، فَتُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ.

8 Yet I will leave a remnant, for some of you will escape the sword when you are scattered among the nations and throughout the lands.

8 وَأَعْفُو عَنْ بَقِيَّةٍ مِنْكُمْ لِيَكُونَ لَكُمْ نَاجُونَ مِنَ السَّيْفِ يَتَشَتَّتُونَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ، إِذْ تَتَبَدَّدُونَ فِي كُلِّ الأَرْضِ.

9 Then in the nations to which they have been carried captive, your survivors will remember Me—how I have been grieved by their adulterous hearts that turned away from Me, and by their eyes that lusted after idols. So they will loathe themselves for the evil they have done and for all their abominations.

9 عِنْدَئِذٍ يَذْكُرُنِي النَّاجُونَ مِنْكُمْ، الْمُشَتَّتُونَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي سَبَيْتُهُمْ إِلَيْهَا، لأَنِّي سَحَقْتُ قُلُوبَهُمُ الزَّانِيَةَ الَّتِي ضَلَّتْ عَنِّي، وَعُيُونَهُمُ الَّتِي زَاغَتْ وَرَاءَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ، فَيَعَافُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ مَا ارْتَكَبُوهُ مِنْ شُرُورٍ، وَمِنْ أَجْلِ مَا اقْتَرَفُوهُ مِنْ أَرْجَاسٍ،

10 And they will know that I am the LORD; I did not declare in vain that I would bring this calamity upon them.

10 فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ، لَمْ أَتَكَلَّمْ عَبَثاً حِينَ تَوَعَّدْتُهُمْ بِهَذَا الشَّرِّ».

11 This is what the Lord GOD says: Clap your hands, stomp your feet, and cry out “Alas!” because of all the wicked abominations of the house of Israel, who will fall by sword and famine and plague.

11 وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: «صَفِّقْ بِيَدَيْكَ، وَاخْبِطْ بِرِجْلِكَ قَائِلاً: آهِ مِنْ كُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الشِّرِّيرَةِ، فَإِنَّهُمْ سَيَمُوتُونَ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ وَالْوَبَاءِ.

12 He who is far off will die by the plague, he who is near will fall by the sword, and he who remains will die by famine. So I will vent My fury upon them.

12 يَمُوتُ الْبَعِيدُ بِالْوَبَاءِ، وَالْقَرِيبُ يَصْرَعُهُ السَّيْفُ، وَالْبَاقِي مِنْهُمْ وَالْمُحَاصَرُ تَقْضِي عَلَيْهِمِ الْمَجَاعَةُ. وَهَكَذَا أَنْفُثُ فِيهِمْ حَنَقِي.

13 Then you will know that I am the LORD, when their slain lie among their idols around their altars, on every high hill, on all the mountaintops, and under every green tree and leafy oak—the places where they offered fragrant incense to all their idols.

13 عِنْدَئِذٍ تُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ، حِينَ يَتَنَاثَرُ قَتْلاهُمْ بَيْنَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ حَوْلَ مَذَابِحِهِمْ، وَفَوْقَ كُلِّ أَكَمَةٍ عَالِيَةٍ، وَعَلَى قِمَمِ جَمِيعِ الْجِبَالِ، وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ وَبَلُّوطَةٍ مُوْرِقَةٍ حَيْثُ كَانُوا يُقَرِّبُونَ رَائِحَةَ سُرُورٍ لِكُلِّ أَوْثَانِهِمْ.

14 I will stretch out My hand against them, and wherever they live I will make the land a desolate waste, from the wilderness to Diblah. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”

14 وَأَمُدُّ يَدِي عَلَيْهِمْ فِي جَمِيعِ مَوَاطِنِ إِقَامَتِهِمْ، فَأَجْعَلُ الأَرْضَ خَرِبَةً مُوْحِشَةً مِنَ الصَّحْرَاءِ إِلَى دَبْلَةَ، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ».
