SMITH VAN DYKENEW JERUSALEM
1 فعدت ورفعت عينيّ ونظرت واذا بدرج طائر.1 Again raising my eyes, I had a vision. There was a flying scrol .
2 فقال لي ماذا ترى. فقلت اني ارى درجا طائرا طوله عشرون ذراعا وعرضه عشر اذرع.2 The angel who was talking to me said, 'What do you see?' I replied, 'I see a flying scroll; it is twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.'
3 فقال لي هذه هي اللعنة الخارجة على وجه كل الارض. لان كل سارق يباد من هنا بحسبها وكل حالف يباد من هناك بحسبها.3 He then said to me, 'This is God's curse sweeping across the face of the whole country; for, accordingto what it says on one side, every thief wil be banished and, according to what it says on the other, everyonewho commits perjury in my name wil be banished from it.
4 اني اخرجها يقول رب الجنود فتدخل بيت السارق وبيت الحالف باسمي زورا وتبيت في وسط بيته وتفنيه مع خشبه وحجارته4 I am going to release it -- Yahweh Sabaoth declares -- for it to enter the house of the thief and ofanyone who commits perjury in my name, for it to settle deep within his house and consume it, timber, stone andal .'
5 ثم خرج الملاك الذي كلمني وقال لي. ارفع عينيك وانظر ما هذا الخارج.5 The angel who was talking to me appeared and said to me, 'Raise your eyes, and see what this is,going along.'
6 فقلت ما هو. فقال هذه هي الايفة الخارجة. وقال هذه عينهم في كل الارض.6 I said, 'What is it?' He said, 'It is a bushel measure going along.' He went on, 'This is their guiltthroughout the country.'
7 واذا بوزنة رصاص رفعت. وكانت امرأة جالسة في وسط الايفة.7 At this, a disc of lead was raised, and I saw a woman sitting inside the barrel.
8 فقال هذه هي الشر. فطرحها الى وسط الايفة وطرح ثقل الرصاص على فمها.8 He said, 'This is Wickedness.' And he rammed her back into the barrel and jammed its mouth shut withthe mass of lead.
9 ورفعت عينيّ ونظرت واذا بامرأتين خرجتا والريح في اجنحتهما. ولهما اجنحة كاجنحة اللقلق فرفعتا الايفة بين الارض والسماء.9 I raised my eyes, and there were two women appearing. The wind caught their wings -- they had wingslike a stork's; they raised the barrel midway between earth and heaven.
10 فقلت للملاك الذي كلمني الى اين هما ذاهبتان بالايفة.10 I then said to the angel who was talking to me, 'Where are they taking the barrel?'
11 فقال لي لتبنيا لها بيتا في ارض شنعار. واذا تهيّأ تقرّ هناك على قاعدتها11 He replied, 'To build a temple for it in the land of Shinar and make a pedestal on which to put it.'
