Ezechiele (حزقيال) 31

SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 وكان في السنة الحادية عشرة في الشهر الثالث في اول الشهر ان كلام الرب كان اليّ قائلا	1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, the third month, the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 يا ابن آدم قل لفرعون ملك مصر وجمهوره من اشبهت في عظمتك.	2 Son of man, speak to Pharao king of Egypt, and to his people: To whom art thou like in thy greatness?
3 هوذا اعلى الارز في لبنان جميل الاغصان واغبى الظل وقامته طويلة وكان فرعه بين الغيوم.	3 Behold, the Assyrian was like a cedar in Libanus, with fair branches, and full of leaves, of a high stature, and his top was elevated among the thick boughs.
4 وقد عظمته المياه ورفعه الغمر انهاره جرت من حول مغرسه وارسلت جداولها الى كل اشجار الحقل.	4 The waters nourished him, the deep set him up on high, the streams thereof ran round about his roots, and it sent forth its rivulets to all the trees of the country.
5 فلذلك ارتفعت قامته على جميع اشجار الحقل وكثرت اغصانه وطالت فروعه لكثرة المياه اذ نبت.	5 Therefore was his height exalted above all the trees of the country: and his branches were multiplied, and his boughs were elevated because of many waters.
6 وعششت في اغصانه كل طيور السماء وتحت فروعه ولدت كل حيوان البر وسكن تحت ظله كل الامم العظيمة.	6 And when he had spread forth his shadow, all the fowls of the air made their nests in his boughs, and all the beasts of the forest brought forth their young under his branches, and the assembly of many nations dwelt under his shadow.
7 فكان جميلا في عظمته وفي طول قضبانه لان اصله كان على مياه كثيرة.	7 And he was most beautiful for his greatness, and for the spreading of his branches: for his root was near great waters.
8 الارز في جنة الله لم يفقه السرو ولم يشبه اغصانه والدلب لم يكن مثل فروعه. كل الاشجار في جنة الله لم تشبهه في حسنه.	8 The cedars in the paradise of God wars not higher than he, the fir trees did not equal his top, neither were the plane trees to be compared with him for branches: no tree in the paradise of God was like him in his beauty.
9 جعلته جميلا بكثرة قضبانه حتى حسدته كل اشجار عدن التي في جنة الله	9 For I made him beautiful and thick set with many branches: and all the trees of pleasure, that were in the paradise of God, envied him.
10 لذلك هكذا قال السيد الرب. من اجل انك ارتفعت قامتك وقد جعل فرعه بين الغيوم وارتفع قلبه بعلوّه	10 Therefore thus saith the Lord God Because he was exalted in height, and shot up his top green and thick, and his heart was lifted up in his height:
11 اسلمته الى يد قوي الامم فيفعل به فعلا. لشره طردته.	11 I have delivered him into the hands of the mighty one of the nations, he shall deal with him: I have cast him out according to his wickedness.
12 ويستأصله الغرباء عتاة الامم ويتركونه فتتساقط قضبانه على الجبال وفي جميع الاودية وتنكسر قضبانه عند كل انهار الارض وينزل عن ظله كل شعوب الارض ويتركونه.	12 And strangers, and the most cruel of the nations shall cut him down, and cast him away upon the mountains, and his boughs shall fall in every valley, and his branches shall be broken on every rock of the country: and all the people of the earth shall depart from his shadow, and leave him.
13 على هشيمه تستقر جميع طيور السماء وجميع حيوان البر تكون على قضبانه.	13 All the fowls of the air dwelt upon his ruins, and all the beasts of the field were among his branches.
14 لكيلا ترتفع شجرة ما وهي على المياه لقامتها ولا تجعل فرعها بين الغيوم ولا تقوم بلوطاتها في ارتفاعها كل شاربة ماء لانها قد أسلمت جميعا الى الموت الى الارض السفلى في وسط بني آدم مع الهابطين في الجب.	14 For which cause none of the trees by the waters shall exalt themselves for their height: nor shoot up their tops among the thick branches and leaves, neither shall any of them that are watered stand up in their height: for they are all delivered unto death to the lowest parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down into the pit.
15 هكذا قال السيد الرب. في يوم نزوله الى الهاوية اقمت نوحا. كسوت عليه الغمر ومنعت انهاره وفنيت المياه الكثيرة واحزنت لبنان عليه وكل اشجار الحقل ذبلت عليه.	15 Thus saith the Lord God: In the day when he went down to hell, I brought in mourning, I covered him with the deep: and I withheld its rivers, and restrained the many waters: Libanus grieved for him, and all the trees of the field trembled.
16 من صوت سقوطه ارجفت الامم عند انزالي اياه الى الهاوية مع الهابطين في الجب فتتعزى في الارض السفلى كل اشجار عدن مختار لبنان وخياره كل شاربة ماء.	16 I shook the nations with the sound of his fall, when I brought him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of pleasure, the choice and best in Libanus, all that were moistened with waters, were comforted in the lowest parts of the earth.
17 هم ايضا نزلوا الى الهاوية معه الى القتلى بالسيف وزرعه الساكنون تحت ظله في وسط الامم.	17 For they also shall go down with him to hell to them that are slain by the sword: and the arm of every one shall sit down under his shadow in the midst of the nations.
18 من اشبهت في المجد والعظمة هكذا بين اشجار عدن. ستحدر مع اشجار عدن الى الارض السفلى وتضطجع بين الغلف مع المقتولين بالسيف. هذا فرعون وكل جمهوره يقول السيد الرب	18 To whom art thou like, O thou that art famous and lofty among the trees of pleasure? Behold, thou art brought down with the trees of pleasure to the lowest parts of the earth: thou shalt sleep in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the sword: this is Pharao, and all his multitude, saith the Lord God.
