1 M oreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

وَجاءَتْ إليَّ كَلِمَةُ اللهِ:

2 “ Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy against it,

«انظُرْ يا إنسانُ نَحوَ سَعِيرَ وَتنَبَّأْ ضِدَّها.

3 a nd say to it, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, O Mount Seir, I am against you; I will stretch out My hand against you, And make you most desolate;

قُلْ لَهُمْ: ‹هَذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: «‹أنا ضِدُّكَ يا جَبَلَ سَعِيرَ، وَقَدْ رَفَعتُ يَدِي لِأضرِبَكَ، لِأُدَمِّرُ أرْضَكَ بِالكامِلِ.

4 I shall lay your cities waste, And you shall be desolate. Then you shall know that I am the Lord.

سَأُحَوِّلُ مُدُنَكَ إلَى خَرائِبَ، وَاُدَمِّرُها بِالكامِلِ. حِينَئِذٍ، تَعلَمُ أنِّي أنا اللهُ.

5 “ Because you have had an ancient hatred, and have shed the blood of the children of Israel by the power of the sword at the time of their calamity, when their iniquity came to an end,

لأنَّكَ كَرِهتَ إسْرائِيلَ، وَجَعَلْتَ مِنْ نَفسِكَ عَدُوّاً لَها إلَى الأبَدِ، وَأسلَمْتَ بَني إسْرائِيلَ لِيُقتَلُوا بِالسَّيفِ فِي يَومِ حُلولِ الكارِثَةِ عَلَيهِمْ، فِي وَقتِ عِقابِهِمِ النِّهائِيِّ.›»

6 t herefore, as I live,” says the Lord God, “I will prepare you for blood, and blood shall pursue you; since you have not hated blood, therefore blood shall pursue you.

هَذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: «أُقسِمُ بِذاتِي إنِّي سَأُعِدُّكَ لِسَفكِ الدَّمِ، فَيُلاحِقُكَ الدَّمُ أينَما ذَهبتَ. أنتَ لَمْ تَرفُضْ سَفكَ الدَّمِ، لِذَلِكَ سَيُلاحِقُكَ سَفكُ الدَّمِ.

7 T hus I will make Mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it the one who leaves and the one who returns.

سَأُحَوِّلُ جَبَل سَعِيرٍ إلَى خَرابٍ كامِلٍ، وَسَأُوقِفُ كُلَّ سَفَرٍ عَبرَ أرْضِكَ.

8 A nd I will fill its mountains with the slain; on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines those who are slain by the sword shall fall.

وَسَأُغَطِّي جِبالَكَ وَتِلالَكَ وَوِديانَكَ وَجَداوِلَكَ بِجُثَثِكَ، جُثَثِ رِجالٍ سَقَطُوا بِالسَّيفِ هُناكَ.

9 I will make you perpetually desolate, and your cities shall be uninhabited; then you shall know that I am the Lord.

سَتَكونَ أرْضُكَ خَراباً إلَى الأبَدِ، وَلَنْ تَعُودَ مُدُنُكَ تُسكَنُ. حِينَئِذٍ، تَعلَمُ أنِّي أنا اللهُ.

10 “ Because you have said, ‘These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess them,’ although the Lord was there,

لِأنَّكَ قُلتَ: «سَنَأخُذُ أرْضَ هَذِينِ الشَّعبَينِ وَهَذَينِ البَلَدَينِ وَممتَلَكاتِهِما.›» مَعَ أنَّ اللهُ يَسكُنُ فِيهما

11 t herefore, as I live,” says the Lord God, “I will do according to your anger and according to the envy which you showed in your hatred against them; and I will make Myself known among them when I judge you.

فَهَذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: «أُقسِمُ بِذاتِي، إنِّي سَأتَعامَلُ مَعَكُمْ بِحَسَبِ غَضَبِكُمْ وَحَسَدِكُمُ اللَّذَينِ ظَهَرا بِسَبِبِ كُرهِكُمْ لِشَعبِي. سَأُدِينُكُمْ فَيَعلَمَ شَعبِي أنَّنِي فِي وَسَطِهِمْ.

12 T hen you shall know that I am the Lord. I have heard all your blasphemies which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, ‘They are desolate; they are given to us to consume.’

وَسَتَعلَمُونَ أنتُمْ أنِّي أنا اللهُ. «قَدْ سَمِعْتُ كُلَّ الشَّتائِمِ الَّتِي تَكَلَّمْتُمْ بِها ضِدَّ جِبالِ إسْرائِيلَ. قُلْتُمْ: ‹قَدْ هَلَكُوا وَصارُوا طَعاماً لَنا!›

13 T hus with your mouth you have boasted against Me and multiplied your words against Me; I have heard them. ”

تَفاخَرْتُمْ وَتَكَلَّمْتُمْ عَلَيَّ. تَفاخَرْتُمْ بِأوثانِكُمْ أمامِي، وَأنا قَدْ سَمِعْتُ!»

14 ‘ Thus says the Lord God: “The whole earth will rejoice when I make you desolate.

لِذا، هَذا هُوَ ما يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإلَهُ: «سَتَفرَحُ الأرْضُ حِينَ أُدَمِّرُكُمْ.

15 A s you rejoiced because the inheritance of the house of Israel was desolate, so I will do to you; you shall be desolate, O Mount Seir, as well as all of Edom—all of it! Then they shall know that I am the Lord.”’

كَما فَرِحْتُمْ بِخَرابِ أرْضَ بَيتِ إسْرائِيلَ. فَكَذَلِكَ سَأفعَلُ بِكُمْ. سَيَخْرَبُ جَبَلُ سَعِيرَ، بَلْ كُلُّ أدُومَ! حِينَئِذٍ، سَتَعرِفُونَ أنِّي أنا اللهُ.»
