1 ث ُمَّ أتَتْ إلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ اللهِ:

The word of the Lord came to me, saying,

2 « يا إنْسانُ، انظُرْ نَحوَ أرْضِ العَمُّونِيِّينَ وَتَكَلَّمْ ضِدَّهُمْ.

“Son of man, set your face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them.

3 ق ُلْ للِعَمًّونِيِّينَ: ‹اسمَعُوا كَلامَ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ. هَذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: لأنَّكُمْ ضَحِكتُمْ عَلَى هَيكَلي حِينَ تَعَرَّضَ للِتَّنجِيسِ، وَعَلَى أرَضِ إسْرائِيلَ حِينَ تَعَرَّضَتْ للِخَرابِ، وَعَلَى بَيتِ يَهُوذا حِينَ أُخِذَ إلَى السَّبيِ،

Say to the Ammonites, ‘Hear the word of the Lord God! Thus says the Lord God: “Because you said, ‘Aha!’ against My sanctuary when it was profaned, and against the land of Israel when it was desolate, and against the house of Judah when they went into captivity,

4 ف َإنِّي سَأُسَلِّمُكِ لِبَنِي الشَّرقِ فَيَسْتَولُوا عَلَيكِ. فَسَيُقِيمُونَ مُعَسْكَراتِهِمْ فِي أرْضِكِ، وَيَنْصِبُونَ خِيامَهُمْ فِي وَسَطِ شَعبِكَ. سَيَأكُلُونَ ثَمَرَكِ وَيَشرَبُونَ لَبَنَكَ.

indeed, therefore, I will deliver you as a possession to the men of the East, and they shall set their encampments among you and make their dwellings among you; they shall eat your fruit, and they shall drink your milk.

5 و َسَأُحَوِّلُ مدِينَةَ رَبَّةِ عَمُّونَ إلَى حَقلٍ فارغٍ تَرعَى فِيهِ الجِمالُ وَالخِرافُ. حِينَئِذٍ، تَعلَمِينَ أنِّي أنا اللهُ.›

And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels and Ammon a resting place for flocks. Then you shall know that I am the Lord.”

6 ل أنَّ هَذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: ‹لأنَّكِ استَمتَعتَ بِالسُّخْرِيَةِ وَالِاستِهزاءِ بِأرْضِ إسْرائِيلَ. فَأخَذتَ تُصَفِّقُ بِيَدَيكَ وَتَضرِبُ بِرِجلَيكَ.

‘For thus says the Lord God: “Because you clapped your hands, stamped your feet, and rejoiced in heart with all your disdain for the land of Israel,

7 ف َإنِّي سَأمُدُّ يَدَيَّ وَأُعاقِبُكَ، وَاُسَلِّمُكَ غَنِيمَةً لِلأُمَمُ الأُخرَى! سَأعْزِلُكَ عَنِ الشُّعُوبِ، وَأطرُدُكَ مِنَ جَميعِ البِلادِ، وَسَأُحِطِّمُكِ. حِينَئِذٍ، تَعلَمُ أنِّي أنا اللهُ.›» نُبُوَّةٌ عَن مُوآب

indeed, therefore, I will stretch out My hand against you, and give you as plunder to the nations; I will cut you off from the peoples, and I will cause you to perish from the countries; I will destroy you, and you shall know that I am the Lord.” Proclamation Against Moab

8 ه َذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: «قالَتْ مُوآبُ وَسَعِيرُ: ‹ها إنَّ بَيتَ يَهُوذا مِثلُ الأُمَمِ الأُخرَى، وَلا يَختَلِفُ عَنها.›

‘Thus says the Lord God: “Because Moab and Seir say, ‘Look! The house of Judah is like all the nations,’

9 ل ِذا فَإنِّي سَأُزِيلُ كُلَّ المُدُنِ القائِمَةِ عَلَى جِبالِ مُوآبَ، بِما فِيها المُدُنُ الواقِعَةُ عَلَى الحُدُودِ مَعَ أرْضِ إسْرائِيلَ الجَمِيلَةِ، مِنْ بَيتِ بَشِمُوتَ وَبَعلِ مَعُونَ وَحَتَّى قِرْيَتايِمْ.

therefore, behold, I will clear the territory of Moab of cities, of the cities on its frontier, the glory of the country, Beth Jeshimoth, Baal Meon, and Kirjathaim.

10 و َسَأُسَلِّمُ مَعَها شَعْبَ عَمُّونَ مُلْكاً لِشُعُوبِ الشَّرقِ، فَلا تَعُودُ عَمُّونُ تًذْكَرُ بَينَ الأُمَمِ.

To the men of the East I will give it as a possession, together with the Ammonites, that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations.

11 و َسَأُنَفِّذَ حُكمِي عَلَى مُوآبَ. حِينَئِذٍ، سَيَعرِفُونَ أنِّي أنا اللهُ.» نُبُوَّةٌ عَنْ أدُوم

And I will execute judgments upon Moab, and they shall know that I am the Lord.” Proclamation Against Edom

12 ه َذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: «انتَقَمَتْ أدُومُ مِنْ بَيتِ يَهُوذا، وَقَدْ أساءَتْ إلَيْهِمْ جِدّاً.

‘Thus says the Lord God: “Because of what Edom did against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and has greatly offended by avenging itself on them,”

13 ل ِهَذا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: ‹سَأُعاقِبُ أدُومَ، سَأقضِي عَلَى النّاسِ وَالحَيَواناتِ فِيها، وَأُحَوِّلُها إلَى صَحراءَ جافَّةٍ فارِغَةٍ. سَيَمُوتُ النّاسُ بِالسَّيفِ مِنْ تَيْمانَ وَحَتَّى دَدانَ.

therefore thus says the Lord God: “I will also stretch out My hand against Edom, cut off man and beast from it, and make it desolate from Teman; Dedan shall fall by the sword.

14 ث ُمَّ سَأستَخدِمُ شَعبِي إسْرائِيلَ لِلِانتِقامِ مِنْ أدُومَ. فَيَنتَقِمُونَ مِنْ أدُومَ بِحَسَبِ غَضَبِي وَسَخَطِي، فَيَعرِفُ الأدُومِيُّونَ انتِقامِي.›» يَقُولُ الرّبُّ الإلَهُ. نُبُوَّةٌ عَن فِلِسطِين

I will lay My vengeance on Edom by the hand of My people Israel, that they may do in Edom according to My anger and according to My fury; and they shall know My vengeance,” says the Lord God. Proclamation Against Philistia

15 ه َذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: «انتَقَمَ الفِلِسطِيُّونَ. جَعَلَهُمْ كُرهُهُمُ الشَّدِيدُ وَالقَدِيمُ يَنتَقِمُونَ بِكُلِّ قُوَّةٍ وَإهانَةٍ مِنْ شَعبِي.

‘Thus says the Lord God: “Because the Philistines dealt vengefully and took vengeance with a spiteful heart, to destroy because of the old hatred,”

16 و َلِذا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: ‹سَأُعاقِبُ الفِلِسطِيِّينَ، وَسَأستَأصِلُ الكرِيتِيِّينَ، وَأُهلِكُ ما يَتَبَقَّى مِنهُمْ عَلَى ساحِلِ البَحرِ.

therefore thus says the Lord God: “I will stretch out My hand against the Philistines, and I will cut off the Cherethites and destroy the remnant of the seacoast.

17 و َهَكَذا فَإنِّي سَأنتَقِمُ مِنهُمْ بِشِدَّةٍ حِينَ أُعاقِبُهُمْ بِغَضَبِي، وَحِينَ أنتَقِمُ مِنهُمْ سَيَعرِفُونَ أنِّي أنا اللهُ.›»

I will execute great vengeance on them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I lay My vengeance upon them.”’”
