²فاجابني الرب وقال اكتب الرؤيا وانقشها على الالواح لكي يركض قارئها.

²Yahweh answered me, “Write the vision, and make it plain on tablets, that he who runs may read it.

³لان الرؤيا بعد الى الميعاد وفي النهاية تتكلم ولا تكذب. ان توانت فانتظرها لانها ستاتي اتيانا ولا تتأخر

³For the vision is yet for the appointed time, and it hurries toward the end, and won’t prove false. Though it takes time, wait for it; because it will surely come. It won’t delay.

⁵وحقا ان الخمر غادرة. الرجل متكبر ولا يهدأ. الذي قد وسّع نفسه كالهاوية وهو كالموت فلا يشبع بل يجمع الى نفسه كل الامم ويضم الى نفسه جميع الشعوب.

⁵Yes, moreover, wine is treacherous. A haughty man who doesn’t stay at home, who enlarges his desire as Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. , and he is like death, and can’t be satisfied, but gathers to himself all nations, and heaps to himself all peoples.

⁶فهلا ينطق هؤلاء كلهم بهجو عليه ولغز شماتة به ويقولون ويل للمكثّر ما ليس له. الى متى. وللمثقّل نفسه رهونا.

⁶Won’t all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, ‘Woe to him who increases that which is not his, and who enriches himself by extortion! How long?’

⁷ألا يقوم بغتة مقارضوك ويستيقظ مزعزعوك فتكون غنيمة لهم.

⁷Won’t your debtors rise up suddenly, and wake up those who make you tremble, and you will be their victim?

⁸لانك سلبت امما كثيرة فبقية الشعوب كلها تسلبك لدماء الناس وظلم الارض والمدينة وجميع الساكنين فيها

⁸Because you have plundered many nations, all the remnant of the peoples will plunder you, because of men’s blood, and for the violence done to the land, to the city and to all who dwell in it.

⁹ويل للمكسب بيته كسبا شريرا ليجعل عشّه في العلو لينجو من كف الشر.

⁹Woe to him who gets an evil gain for his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the hand of evil!

¹⁰تآمرت الخزي لبيتك. ابادة شعوب كثيرة وانت مخطئ لنفسك.

¹⁰You have devised shame to your house, by cutting off many peoples, and have sinned against your soul.

¹¹لان الحجر يصرخ من الحائط فيجيبه الجائز من الخشب

¹¹For the stone will cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the woodwork will answer it.

¹²ويل للباني مدينة بالدماء وللمؤسس قرية بالاثم.

¹²Woe to him who builds a town with blood, and establishes a city by iniquity!

¹³أليس من قبل رب الجنود ان الشعوب يتعبون للنار والامم للباطل يعيون.

¹³Behold, isn’t it of Yahweh of Armies that the peoples labor for the fire, and the nations weary themselves for vanity?

¹⁴لان الارض تمتلئ من معرفة مجد الرب كما تغطي المياه البحر

¹⁴For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of Yahweh, as the waters cover the sea.

¹⁵ويل لمن يسقي صاحبه سافحا حموك ومسكرا ايضا للنظر الى عوراتهم.

¹⁵“Woe to him who gives his neighbor drink, pouring your inflaming wine until they are drunk, so that you may gaze at their naked bodies!

¹⁶قد شبعت خزيا عوضا عن المجد. فاشرب انت ايضا واكشف غرلتك. تدور اليك كاس يمين الرب. وقياء الخزي على مجدك.

¹⁶You are filled with shame, and not glory. You will also drink, and be exposed! The cup of Yahweh’s right hand will come around to you, and disgrace will cover your glory.

¹⁷لان ظلم لبنان يغطيك واغتصاب البهائم الذي روّعها لاجل دماء الناس وظلم الارض والمدينة وجميع الساكنين فيها

¹⁸ماذا نفع التمثال المنحوت حتى نحته صانعه او المسبوك ومعلّم الكذب حتى ان الصانع صنعة يتكل عليها فيصنع اوثانا بكما.

¹⁸“What value does the engraved image have, that its maker has engraved it; the molten image, even the teacher of lies, that he who fashions its form trusts in it, to make mute idols?

¹⁹ويل للقائل للعود استيقظ وللحجر الاصم انتبه. أهو يعلّم. ها هو مطلي بالذهب والفضة ولا روح البتة في داخله.

¹⁹Woe to him who says to the wood, ‘Awake!’ or to the mute stone, ‘Arise!’ Shall this teach? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in its midst.

²⁰اما الرب ففي هيكل قدسه. فاسكتي قدامه يا كل الارض

²⁰But Yahweh is in his holy temple. Let all the earth be silent before him!”
