Ezekiel 15 15 Ezekiel Judgment on Jerusalem Arabic Literal Text 1 GLT وَكَانَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: BSB BSB: Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 GLT «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، مَاذَا يَكُونُ عُودُ ٱلْكَرْمِ فَوْقَ كُلِّ عُودٍ أَوْ فَوْقَ ٱلْقَضِيبِ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ شَجَرِ ٱلْوَعْرِ؟ BSB BSB: “Son of man, how does the wood of the vine surpass any other branch among the trees in the forest?
3 GLT هَلْ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْهُ عُودٌ لِٱصْطِنَاعِ عَمَلٍ مَّا، أَوْ يَأْخُذُونَ مِنْهُ وَتَدًا لِيُعَلَّقَ عَلَيْهِ إِنَاءٌ مَّا؟ BSB BSB: Can wood be taken from it to make something useful? Or can one make from it a peg on which to hang utensils?
4 GLT هُوَذَا يُطْرَحُ أَكْلًا لِلنَّارِ. تَأْكُلُ ٱلنَّارُ طَرَفَيْهِ وَيُحْرَقُ وَسَطُهُ. فَهَلْ يَصْلُحُ لِعَمَلٍ؟ BSB BSB: No, it is cast into the fire for fuel. The fire devours both ends, and the middle is charred. Can it be useful for anything?
5 GLT هُوَذَا حِينَ كَانَ صَحِيحًا لَمْ يَكُنْ يَصْلُحُ لِعَمَلٍ مَّا، فَكَمْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ لَا يَصْلُحُ بَعْدُ لِعَمَلٍ إِذْ أَكَلَتْهُ ٱلنَّارُ فَٱحْتَرَقَ؟ BSB BSB: Even when it was whole, it could not be made useful. How much less can it ever be useful when the fire has consumed it and charred it!
6 GLT «لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِثْلَ عُودِ ٱلْكَرْمِ بَيْنَ عِيدَانِ ٱلْوَعْرِ ٱلَّتِي بَذَلْتُهَا أَكْلًا لِلنَّارِ، كَذَلِكَ أَبْذُلُ سُكَّانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ. BSB BSB: Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Like the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so I will give up the people of Jerusalem.
7 GLT وَأَجْعَلُ وَجْهِي ضِدَّهُمْ. يَخْرُجُونَ مِنْ نَارٍ فَتَأْكُلُهُمْ نَارٌ، فَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ حِينَ أَجْعَلُ وَجْهِي ضِدَّهُمْ. BSB BSB: And I will set My face against them. Though they may have escaped the fire, yet another fire will consume them. And when I set My face against them, you will know that I am the LORD.
8 GLT وَأَجْعَلُ ٱلْأَرْضَ خَرَابًا لِأَنَّهُمْ خَانُوا خِيَانَةً، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». BSB BSB: Thus I will make the land desolate, because they have acted unfaithfully,’ declares the Lord GOD.”
