Ezekiel 4

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 “And as for you, son of man, take up for yourself a tablet, and you shall set it before you. And you shall draw upon it the city of Jerusalem.	1 وانت يا ابن آدم فخذ لنفسك لبنة وضعها امامك وارسم عليها مدينة اورشليم.
2 And you shall set up a blockade against it, and you shall build fortifications, and you shall put together a rampart, and you shall encamp opposite it, and you shall place battering rams around it.	2 واجعل عليها حصار وابن عليها برجا واقم عليها مترسة واجعل عليها جيوشا واقم عليها مجانق حولها.
3 And you shall take up for yourself an iron frying pan, and place it as an iron wall between you and the city. And harden your face against it, and it shall be under a siege, and you shall surround it. This is a sign to the house of Israel.	3 وخذ انت لنفسك صاجا من حديد وانصبه سورا من حديد بينك وبين المدينة وثبت وجهك عليها فتكون في حصار وتحاصرها. تلك آية لبيت اسرائيل
4 And you shall sleep on your left side. And you shall place the iniquities of the house of Israel on it by the number of days that you will sleep on it. And you shall take upon yourself their iniquity.	4 واتكئ انت على جنبك اليسار وضع عليه اثم بيت اسرائيل. على عدد الايام التي فيها تتكئ عليه تحمل اثمهم.
5 For I have given to you the years of their iniquity, by the number of the days: three hundred and ninety days. And you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.	5 وانا قد جعلت لك سني اثمهم حسب عدد الايام ثلاث مئة يوم وتسعين يوما. فتحمل اثم بيت اسرائيل.
6 And when you will have completed this, you shall sleep a second time, on your right side, and you shall assume the iniquity of the house of Judah for forty days: one day for each year; one day, I say, for each year, have I given to you.	6 فاذا اتممتها فاتكئ على جنبك اليمين ايضا فتحمل اثم بيت يهوذا اربعين يوما. فقد جعلت لك كل يوم عوضا عن سنة.
7 And you shall turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and your arm shall be extended. And you shall prophesy against it.	7 فثبّت وجهك على حصار اورشليم وذراعك مكشوفة وتنبّا عليها.
8 Behold, I have surrounded you with chains. And you shall not turn yourself from one side to the other side, until you have completed the days of your siege.	8 وهأنذا اجعل عليك ربطا فلا تقلب من جنب الى جنب حتى تتمم ايام حصارك
9 And you shall take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and vetch. And you shall set them in one vessel, and you shall make for yourself bread by the number of days that you will sleep upon your side: three hundred and ninety days shall you shall eat from it.	9 وخذ انت لنفسك قمحا وشعيرا وفولا وعدسا ودخنا وكرسنة وضعها في وعاء واحد واصنعها لنفسك خبزا كعدد الايام التي تتكئ فيها على جنبك. ثلاث مئة يوم وتسعين يوما تاكله.
10 But your food, which you will eat, shall be in weight twenty staters a day. You shall eat it from time to time.	10 وطعامك الذي تأكله يكون بالوزن. كل يوم عشرين شاقلا. من وقت الى وقت تاكله.
11 And you shall drink water by measure, one sixth part of a hin. You shall drink it from time to time.	11 وتشرب الماء بالكيل. سدس الهين. من وقت الى وقت تشربه.
12 And you shall eat it like barley bread baked under ashes. And you shall cover it, in their sight, with the dung that goes out of a man.”	12 وتأكل كعكا من الشعير. على الخرء الذي يخرج من الانسان تخبزه امام عيونهم.
13 And the Lord said: “So shall the sons of Israel eat their bread, polluted among the Gentiles, to whom I will cast them out.”	13 وقال الرب. هكذا ياكل بنو اسرائيل خبزهم النجس بين الامم الذين اطردهم اليهم.
14 And I said: “Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! Behold, my soul has not been polluted, and from my infancy even until now, I have not eaten anything that has died of itself, nor that which has been torn up by beasts, and no unclean flesh at all has entered into my mouth.”	14 فقلت آه يا سيد الرب ها نفسي لم تتنجس ومن صباي الى الآن لم آكل ميتة او فريسة ولا دخل فمي لحم نجس.
15 And he said to me: “Behold, I have given to you cow manure in place of human dung, and you shall make your bread with it.”	15 فقال لي انظر. قد جعلت لك خثي البقر بدل خرء الانسان فتصنع خبزك عليه.
16 And he said to me: “Son of man, behold: I will crush the staff of bread in Jerusalem. And they will eat bread by weight and with anxiety. And they will drink water by measure and with anguish.	16 وقال لي يا ابن آدم هانذا اكسر قوام الخبز في اورشليم فياكلون الخبز بالوزن وبالغم ويشربون الماء بالكيل وبالحيرة
17 So then, when bread and water fail, each one may fall against his brother. And they shall waste away in their iniquities.”	17 لكي يعوزهم الخبز والماء ويتحيروا الرجل واخوه ويفنوا باثمهم
