SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 فجاء اليّ رجال من شيوخ اسرائيل وجلسوا امامي.	1 And men among the elders of Israel came to me, and they sat down before me.
2 فصارت اليّ كلمة الرب قائلة.	2 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
3 يا ابن آدم هؤلاء الرجال قد اصعدوا اصنامهم الى قلوبهم ووضعوا معثرة اثمهم تلقاء اوجههم. فهل أسأل منهم سؤالا.	3 “Son of man, these men have placed their uncleanness in their hearts, and they have stationed the scandal of their iniquities before their face. So why should I respond when they inquire of me?
4 لاجل ذلك كلمهم وقل لهم. هكذا قال السيد الرب. كل انسان من بيت اسرائيل الذي يصعد اصنامه الى قلبه ويضع معثرة اثمه تلقاء وجهه ثم يأتي الى النبي فاني انا الرب اجيبه حسب كثرة اصنامه	4 Because of this, speak to them, and you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord God: The man, the man of the house of Israel, who places his uncleanness in his heart, and who stations the scandal of his iniquities before his face, and who approaches a prophet, so as to inquire of me through him: I, the Lord, will respond to him in accord with the multitude of his uncleannesses,
5 لكي آخذ بيت اسرائيل بقلوبهم لانهم كلهم قد ارتدوا عني باصنامهم.	5 so that the house of Israel may be seized within their own heart, by which they have withdrawn from me to all their idols.
6 لذلك قل لبيت اسرائيل هكذا قال السيد الرب. توبوا وارجعوا عن اصنامكم وعن كل رجاساتكم اصرفوا وجوهكم.	6 Because of this, say to the house of Israel: Thus says the Lord God: Be converted, and withdraw from your idols, and turn your faces away from all your abominations.
7 لان كل انسان من بيت اسرائيل او من الغرباء المتغربين في اسرائيل اذا ارتد عني واصعد اصنامه الى قلبه ووضع معثرة اثمه تلقاء وجهه ثم جاء الى النبي ليسأله عني فاني انا الرب اجيبه بنفسي.	7 For the man, the man of the house of Israel, and the new arrival among the converts who may be in Israel, if he is alienated from me, and he sets his idols in his heart, and he stations the scandal of his iniquity before his face, and he approaches the prophet, so that he may inquire of me through him: I, the Lord, will respond to him through myself.
8 واجعل وجهي ضد ذلك الانسان واجعله آية ومثلا واستأصله من وسط شعبي فتعلمون اني انا الرب.	8 And I will set my face against that man, and I will make him an example and a proverb. And I will perish him from the midst of my people. And you shall know that I am the Lord.
9 فاذا ضل النبي وتكلم كلاما فانا الرب قد اضللت ذلك النبي وسأمد يدي عليه وابيده من وسط شعبي اسرائيل.	9 And when a prophet has gone astray and has spoken a word: I, the Lord, have deceived that prophet. And I will extend my hand over him, and I will wipe him away from the midst of my people, Israel.
10 ويحملون اثمهم. كاثم السائل يكون اثم النبي.	10 And they shall bear their iniquity. In accord with the iniquity of the one who inquires, so shall the iniquity of the prophet be.
11 لكي لا يعود يضل عني بيت اسرائيل ولكي لا يعودوا يتنجسون بكل معاصيهم بل ليكونوا لي شعبا وانا اكون لهم الها يقول السيد الرب	11 So may the house of Israel no longer go astray from me, nor be polluted by all their transgressions. Instead, may they be my people, and may I be their God, says the Lord of hosts.”
12 وكانت اليّ كلمة الرب قائلة.	12 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
13 يا ابن آدم ان اخطأت اليّ ارض وخانت خيانة فمددت يدي عليها وكسرت لها قوام الخبز وارسلت عليها الجوع وقطعت منها الانسان والحيوان	13 “Son of man, when a land will have sinned against me, so that it transgresses grievously, I will extend my hand over it, and I will crush the staff of its bread. And I will send a famine upon it, and I will destroy from it both man and beast.
14 وكان فيها هؤلاء الرجال الثلاثة نوح ودانيال وايوب فانهم انما يخلصون انفسهم ببرهم يقول السيد الرب.	14 And if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would deliver their own souls by their justice, says the Lord of hosts.
15 ان عبّرت في الارض وحوشا رديئة فاثكلوها وصارت خرابا بلا عابر بسبب الوحوش	15 And if I also lead in very harmful beasts upon the land, so that I devastate it, and it becomes impassable, so that no one may cross through it because of the beasts,
16 وفي وسطها هؤلاء الثلاثة الرجال فحيّ انا يقول السيد الرب انهم لا يخلصون بنين ولا بنات. هم وحدهم يخلصون والارض تصير خربة.	16 if these three men were in it, as I live, says the Lord God, they will deliver neither sons, nor daughters. But only they themselves will be delivered, for the land shall be desolated.
17 او ان جلبت سيفا على تلك الارض وقلت يا سيف اعبر في الارض وقطعت منها الانسان والحيوان	17 Or if I lead in the sword upon that land, and if I say to the sword, ‘Pass through the land,’ and so I destroy from it both man and beast,
18 وفي وسطها هؤلاء الرجال الثلاثة فحيّ انا يقول السيد الرب انهم لا يخلّصون بنين ولا بنات بل هم وحدهم يخلصون.	18 and if these three men were in its midst, as I live, says the Lord God, they will deliver neither sons, nor daughters, but only they themselves will be delivered.
19 او ان ارسلت وبأ على تلك الارض وسكبت غضبي عليها بالدم لاقطع منها الانسان والحيوان	19 Then, if I also send the pestilence upon that land, and I pour out my indignation upon it with blood, so that I take away from it both man and beast,
20 وفي وسطها نوح ودانيال وايوب فحيّ انا يقول السيد الرب انهم لا يخلصون ابنا ولا ابنة. انما يخلصون انفسهم ببرهم	20 and if Noah, and Daniel, and Job were in its midst, as I live, says the Lord God, they will deliver neither son, nor daughter, but they will deliver only their own souls by their justice.
21 لانه هكذا قال السيد الرب. كم بالحري ان ارسلت احكامي الرديئة على اورشليم سيفا وجوعا ووحشا رديئا ووبأ لاقطع منها الانسان والحيوان.	21 For thus says the Lord God: Even though I will send upon Jerusalem my four most grievous judgments, sword and famine and harmful beasts and pestilence, so that I destroy from it both man and beast,
22 فهوذا بقية فيها ناجية تخرج بنون وبنات. هوذا يخرجون اليكم فتنظرون طريقهم واعمالهم وتتعزون عن الشر الذي جلبته على اورشليم عن كل ما جلبته عليها.	22 yet still there shall be left within it some who will be saved, who shall lead away their own sons and daughters. Behold, they will enter to you, and you will see their way and their accomplishments. And you shall be consoled concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, concerning all the things that I have brought to bear upon it.
23 ويعزونكم اذ ترون طريقهم واعمالهم فتعلمون اني لم اصنع بلا سبب كل ما صنعته فيها يقول السيد الرب	23 And they shall console you, when you see their ways and their accomplishments. And you shall know that I have not acted to no purpose in all that I have done within it, says the Lord God.”
