1ثم صار اليّ كلام الرب قائلا
1The word of Yahweh came also to me, saying,
2لا تتخذ لنفسك امرأة ولا يكن لك بنون ولا بنات في هذا الموضع.
2You shall not take a wife, neither shall you have sons or daughters, in this place.
3لانه هكذا قال الرب عن البنين وعن البنات المولودين في هذا الموضع وعن امهاتهم اللواتي ولدنهم وعن آبائهم الذين ولدوهم في هذه الارض
3For thus says Yahweh concerning the sons and concerning the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them, and concerning their fathers who became their father in this land:
4ميتات امراض يموتون. لا يندبون ولا يدفنون بل يكونون دمنة على وجه الارض وبالسيف والجوع يفنون وتكون جثثهم أكلا لطيور السماء ولوحوش الارض.
4They shall die grievous deaths: they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried; they shall be as dung on the surface of the ground; and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their dead bodies shall be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth.
5لانه هكذا قال الرب. لا تدخل بيت النوح ولا تمض للندب ولا تعزهم لاني نزعت سلامي من هذا الشعب يقول الرب الاحسان والمراحم.
5For thus says Yahweh, Don’t enter into the house of mourning, neither go to lament, neither bemoan them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, says Yahweh, even loving kindness and tender mercies.
6فيموت الكبار والصغار في هذه الارض. لا يدفنون ولا يندبونهم ولا يخمشون انفسهم ولا يجعلون قرعة من اجلهم.
6Both great and small shall die in this land; they shall not be buried, neither shall men lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them;
7ولا يكسرون خبزا في المناحة ليعزوهم عن ميت ولا يسقونهم كاس التعزية عن اب او ام.
7neither shall men break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.
8ولا تدخل بيت الوليمة لتجلس معهم للأكل والشرب.
8You shall not go into the house of feasting to sit with them, to eat and to drink.
9لانه هكذا قال رب الجنود اله اسرائيل. هانذا مبطل من هذا الموضع امام اعينكم وفي ايامكم صوت الطرب وصوت الفرح صوت العريس وصوت العروس
9For thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes and in your days, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.
10ويكون حين تخبر هذا الشعب بكل هذه الامور انهم يقولون لك لماذا تكلم الرب علينا بكل هذا الشر العظيم فما هو ذنبنا وما هي خطيتنا التي اخطاناها الى الرب الهنا.
10It shall happen, when you shall show this people all these words, and they shall tell you, Why has Yahweh pronounced all this great evil against us? or what is our iniquity? or what is our sin that we have committed against Yahweh our God?
11فتقول لهم من اجل ان آباءكم قد تركوني يقول الرب وذهبوا وراء آلهة اخرى وعبدوها وسجدوا لها واياي تركوا وشريعتي لم يحفظوها.
11Then you shall tell them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, says Yahweh, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshiped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;
12وانتم اسأتم في عملكم اكثر من آبائكم وها انتم ذاهبون كل واحد وراء عناد قلبه الشرير حتى لا تسمعوا لي.
12and you have done evil more than your fathers; for, behold, you walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so that you don’t listen to me:
13فاطردكم من هذه الارض الى ارض لم تعرفوها انتم ولا آباؤكم فتعبدون هناك آلهة اخرى نهارا وليلا حيث لا اعطيكم نعمة
13therefore will I cast you forth out of this land into the land that you have not known, neither you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods day and night; for I will show you no favor.
14لذلك ها ايام تأتي يقول الرب ولا يقال بعد حيّ هو الرب الذي اصعد بني اسرائيل من ارض مصر
14Therefore behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that it shall no more be said, As Yahweh lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
15بل حيّ هو الرب الذي اصعد بني اسرائيل من ارض الشمال ومن جميع الاراضي التي طردهم اليها. فارجعهم الى ارضهم التي اعطيت آباءهم اياها
15but, As Yahweh lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had driven them. I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers.
16هانذا ارسل الى جزافين كثيرين يقول الرب فيصطادونهم ثم بعد ذلك ارسل الى كثيرين من القانصين فيقتنصونهم عن كل جبل وعن كل اكمة ومن شقوق الصخور.
16Behold, I will send for many fishermen, says Yahweh, and they shall fish them up; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.
17لان عينيّ على كل طرقهم. لم تستتر عن وجهي ولم يختف اثمهم من امام عينيّ
17For my eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from my face, neither is their iniquity concealed from my eyes.
18واعاقب اولا اثمهم وخطيتهم ضعفين لانهم دنسوا ارضي وبجثث مكرهاتهم ورجاساتهم قد ملأوا ميراثي.
18First I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have polluted my land with the carcasses of their detestable things, and have filled my inheritance with their abominations.
19يا رب عزي وحصني وملجإي في يوم الضيق اليك تأتي الامم من اطراف الارض ويقولون انما ورث آباؤنا كذبا واباطيل وما لا منفعة فيه.
19Yahweh, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge in the day of affliction, to you shall the nations come from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, vanity and things in which there is no profit.
20هل يصنع الانسان لنفسه آلهة وهي ليست آلهة.
20Shall a man make to himself gods, which yet are no gods?
21لذلك هانذا اعرّفهم هذه المرة اعرّفهم يدي وجبروتي فيعرفون ان اسمي يهوه
21Therefore behold, I will cause them to know, this once will I cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is Yahweh.
