WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 وَكَانَتْ إِلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلَةً:
1 Again Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
2 «يَا ٱبْنَ آدَمَ، عَرِّفْ أُورُشَلِيمَ بِرَجَاسَاتِهَا،
2 “Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations;
3 وَقُلْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِأُورُشَلِيمَ: مَخْرَجُكِ وَمَوْلِدُكِ مِنْ أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. أَبُوكِ أَمُورِيٌّ وَأُمُّكِ حِثِّيَّةٌ.
3 and say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says to Jerusalem: “Your origin and your birth is of the land of the Canaanite. An Amorite was your father, and your mother was a Hittite.
4 أَمَّا مِيلَادُكِ يَوْمَ وُلِدْتِ فَلَمْ تُقْطَعْ سُرَّتُكِ، وَلَمْ تُغْسَلِي بِٱلْمَاءِ لِلتَّنَظُّفِ، وَلَمْ تُمَلَّحِي تَمْلِيحًا، وَلَمْ تُقَمَّطِي تَقْمِيطًا.
4 As for your birth, in the day you were born your navel was not cut. You weren’t washed in water to cleanse you. You weren’t salted at all, nor wrapped in blankets at all.
5 لَمْ تَشْفُقْ عَلَيْكِ عَيْنٌ لِتَصْنَعَ لَكِ وَاحِدَةً مِنْ هَذِهِ لِتَرِقَّ لَكِ، بَلْ طُرِحْتِ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْحَقْلِ بِكَرَاهَةِ نَفْسِكِ يَوْمَ وُلِدْتِ.
5 No eye pitied you, to do any of these things to you, to have compassion on you; but you were cast out in the open field, because you were abhorred in the day that you were born.
6 فَمَرَرْتُ بِكِ وَرَأَيْتُكِ مَدُوسَةً بِدَمِكِ، فَقُلْتُ لَكِ: بِدَمِكِ عِيشِي، قُلْتُ لَكِ: بِدَمِكِ عِيشِي.
6 “‘“When I passed by you, and saw you wallowing in your blood, I said to you, ‘Though you are in your blood, live!’ Yes, I said to you, ‘Though you are in your blood, live!’
7 جَعَلْتُكِ رَبْوَةً كَنَبَاتِ ٱلْحَقْلِ، فَرَبَوْتِ وَكَبُرْتِ، وَبَلَغْتِ زِينَةَ ٱلْأَزْيَانِ. نَهَدَ ثَدْيَاكِ، وَنَبَتَ شَعْرُكِ وَقَدْ كُنْتِ عُرْيَانَةً وَعَارِيَةً.
7 I caused you to multiply as that which grows in the field, and you increased and grew great, and you attained to excellent beauty. Your breasts were formed, and your hair grew; yet you were naked and bare.
8 فَمَرَرْتُ بِكِ وَرَأَيْتُكِ، وَإِذَا زَمَنُكِ زَمَنُ ٱلْحُبِّ. فَبَسَطْتُ ذَيْلِي عَلَيْكِ وَسَتَرْتُ عَوْرَتَكِ، وَحَلَفْتُ لَكِ، وَدَخَلْتُ مَعَكِ فِي عَهْدٍ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، فَصِرْتِ لِي.
8 “‘“Now when I passed by you, and looked at you, behold, your time was the time of love; and I spread my garment over you and covered your nakedness. Yes, I pledged myself to you and entered into a covenant with you,” says the Lord Yahweh, “and you became mine.
9 فَحَمَّمْتُكِ بِٱلْمَاءِ، وَغَسَلْتُ عَنْكِ دِمَاءَكِ، وَمَسَحْتُكِ بِٱلزَّيْتِ،
9 “‘“Then I washed you with water. Yes, I thoroughly washed away your blood from you, and I anointed you with oil.
10 وَأَلْبَسْتُكِ مُطَرَّزَةً، وَنَعَلْتُكِ بِٱلتُّخَسِ، وَأَزَّرْتُكِ بِٱلْكَتَّانِ، وَكَسَوْتُكِ بَزًّا،
10 I clothed you also with embroidered work and put leather sandals on you. I dressed you with fine linen and covered you with silk.
11 وَحَلَّيْتُكِ بِٱلْحُلِيِّ، فَوَضَعْتُ أَسْوِرَةً فِي يَدَيْكِ وَطَوْقًا فِي عُنُقِكِ.
11 I decked you with ornaments, put bracelets on your hands, and put a chain on your neck.
12 وَوَضَعْتُ خِزَامَةً فِي أَنْفِكِ وَأَقْرَاطًا فِي أُذُنَيْكِ وَتَاجَ جَمَالٍ عَلَى رَأْسِكِ.
12 I put a ring on your nose, earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head.
13 فَتَحَلَّيْتِ بِٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَلِبَاسُكِ ٱلْكَتَّانُ وَٱلْبَزُّ وَٱلْمُطَرَّزُ. وَأَكَلْتِ ٱلسَّمِيذَ وَٱلْعَسَلَ وَٱلزَّيْتَ، وَجَمُلْتِ جِدًّا جِدًّا، فَصَلُحْتِ لِمَمْلَكَةٍ.
13 Thus you were decked with gold and silver. Your clothing was of fine linen, silk, and embroidered work. You ate fine flour, honey, and oil. You were exceedingly beautiful, and you prospered to royal estate.
14 وَخَرَجَ لَكِ ٱسْمٌ فِي ٱلْأُمَمِ لِجَمَالِكِ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ كَامِلًا بِبَهَائِي ٱلَّذِي جَعَلْتُهُ عَلَيْكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ.
14 Your renown went out among the nations for your beauty; for it was perfect, through my majesty which I had put on you,” says the Lord Yahweh.
15 «فَٱتَّكَلْتِ عَلَى جَمَالِكِ، وَزَنَيْتِ عَلَى ٱسْمِكِ، وَسَكَبْتِ زِنَاكِ عَلَى كُلِّ عَابِرٍ فَكَانَ لَهُ.
15 “‘“But you trusted in your beauty, and played the prostitute because of your renown, and poured out your prostitution on everyone who passed by. It was his.
16 وَأَخَذْتِ مِنْ ثِيَابِكِ وَصَنَعْتِ لِنَفْسِكِ مُرْتَفَعَاتٍ مُوَشَّاةٍ، وَزَنَيْتِ عَلَيْهَا. أَمْرٌ لَمْ يَأْتِ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ.
16 You took some of your garments, and made for yourselves high places decked with various colors, and played the prostitute on them. This shouldn’t happen, neither shall it be.
17 وَأَخَذْتِ أَمْتِعَةَ زِينَتِكِ مِنْ ذَهَبِي وَمِنْ فِضَّتِي ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُكِ، وَصَنَعْتِ لِنَفْسِكِ صُوَرَ ذُكُورٍ وَزَنَيْتِ بِهَا.
17 You also took your beautiful jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given you, and made for yourself images of men, and played the prostitute with them.
18 وَأَخَذْتِ ثِيَابَكِ ٱلْمُطَرَّزَةَ وَغَطَّيْتِهَا بِهَا، وَوَضَعْتِ أَمَامَهَا زَيْتِي وَبَخُورِي.
18 You took your embroidered garments, covered them, and set my oil and my incense before them.
19 وَخُبْزِي ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَيْتُكِ، ٱلسَّمِيذَ وَٱلزَّيْتَ وَٱلْعَسَلَ ٱلَّذِي أَطْعَمْتُكِ، وَضَعْتِهَا أَمَامَهَا رَائِحَةَ سُرُورٍ. وَهَكَذَا كَانَ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ.
19 My bread also which I gave you, fine flour, oil, and honey, with which I fed you, you even set it before them for a pleasant aroma; and so it was,” says the Lord Yahweh.
20 «أَخَذْتِ بَنِيكِ وَبَنَاتِكِ ٱلَّذِينَ وَلَدْتِهِمْ لِي، وَذَبَحْتِهِمْ لَهَا طَعَامًا. أَهُوَ قَلِيلٌ مِنْ زِنَاكِ
20 “‘“Moreover you have taken your sons and your daughters, whom you have borne to me, and you have sacrificed these to them to be devoured. Was your prostitution a small matter,
21 أَنَّكِ ذَبَحْتِ بَنِيَّ وَجَعَلْتِهِمْ يَجُوزُونَ فِي ٱلنَّارِ لَهَا؟
21 that you have slain my children and delivered them up, in causing them to pass through the fire to them?
22 وَفِي كُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِكِ وَزِنَاكِ لَمْ تَذْكُرِي أَيَّامَ صِبَاكِ، إِذْ كُنْتِ عُرْيَانَةً وَعَارِيَةً وَكُنْتِ مَدُوسَةً بِدَمِكِ.
22 In all your abominations and your prostitution you have not remembered the days of your youth, when you were naked and bare, and were wallowing in your blood.
23 وَكَانَ بَعْدَ كُلِّ شَرِّكِ. وَيْلٌ، وَيْلٌ لَكِ! يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ،
23 “‘“It has happened after all your wickedness—woe, woe to you!” says the Lord Yahweh—
24 أَنَّكِ بَنَيْتِ لِنَفْسِكِ قُبَّةً وَصَنَعْتِ لِنَفْسِكِ مُرْتَفَعَةً فِي كُلِّ شَارِعٍ.
24 “that you have built for yourselves a vaulted place, and have made yourselves a lofty place in every street.
25 فِي رَأْسِ كُلِّ طَرِيقٍ بَنَيْتِ مُرْتَفَعَتَكِ وَرَجَّسْتِ جَمَالَكِ، وَفَرَّجْتِ رِجْلَيْكِ لِكُلِّ عَابِرٍ وَأَكْثَرْتِ زِنَاكِ.
25 You have built your lofty place at the head of every way, and have made your beauty an abomination, and have opened your feet to everyone who passed by, and multiplied your prostitution.
26 وَزَنَيْتِ مَعَ جِيرَانِكِ بَنِي مِصْرَ ٱلْغِلَاظِ ٱللَّحْمِ، وَزِدْتِ فِي زِنَاكِ لِإِغَاظَتِي.
26 You have also committed sexual immorality with the Egyptians, your neighbors, great of flesh; and have multiplied your prostitution, to provoke me to anger.
27 «فَهَأَنَذَا قَدْ مَدَدْتُ يَدِي عَلَيْكِ، وَمَنَعْتُ عَنْكِ فَرِيضَتَكِ، وَأَسْلَمْتُكِ لِمَرَامِ مُبْغِضَاتِكِ، بَنَاتِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، ٱللَّوَاتِي يَخْجَلْنَ مِنْ طَرِيقِكِ ٱلرَّذِيلَةِ.
27 See therefore, I have stretched out my hand over you, and have diminished your portion, and delivered you to the will of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your lewd way.
28 وَزَنَيْتِ مَعَ بَنِي أَشُّورَ، إِذْ كُنْتِ لَمْ تَشْبَعِي فَزَنَيْتِ بِهِمْ، وَلَمْ تَشْبَعِي أَيْضًا.
28 You have played the prostitute also with the Assyrians, because you were insatiable; yes, you have played the prostitute with them, and yet you weren’t satisfied.
29 وَكَثَّرْتِ زِنَاكِ فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، وَبِهَذَا أَيْضًا لَمْ تَشْبَعِي.
29 You have moreover multiplied your prostitution to the land of merchants, to Chaldea; and yet you weren’t satisfied with this.
30 مَا أَمْرَضَ قَلْبَكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِذْ فَعَلْتِ كُلَّ هَذَا فِعْلَ ٱمْرَأَةٍ زَانِيَةٍ سَلِيطَةٍ،
30 “‘“How weak is your heart,” says the Lord Yahweh, “since you do all these things, the work of an impudent prostitute;
31 بِبِنَائِكِ قُبَّتَكِ فِي رَأْسِ كُلِّ طَرِيقٍ، وَصُنْعِكِ مُرْتَفَعَتَكِ فِي كُلِّ شَارِعٍ. وَلَمْ تَكُونِي كَزَانِيَةٍ، بَلْ مُحْتَقَرةً ٱلْأُجْرَةَ.
31 in that you build your vaulted place at the head of every way, and make your lofty place in every street, and have not been as a prostitute, in that you scorn pay.
32 أَيَّتُهَا ٱلزَّوْجَةُ ٱلْفَاسِقَةُ، تَأْخُذُ أَجْنَبِيِّينَ مَكَانَ زَوْجِهَا.
32 “‘“Adulterous wife, who takes strangers instead of her husband!
33 لِكُلِّ ٱلزَّوَانِي يُعْطُونَ هَدِيَّةً، أَمَّا أَنْتِ فَقَدْ أَعْطَيْتِ كُلَّ مُحِبِّيكِ هَدَايَاكِ، وَرَشَيْتِهِمْ لِيَأْتُوكِ مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ لِلزِّنَا بِكِ.
33 People give gifts to all prostitutes; but you give your gifts to all your lovers, and bribe them, that they may come to you on every side for your prostitution.
34 وَصَارَ فِيكِ عَكْسُ عَادَةِ ٱلنِّسَاءِ فِي زِنَاكِ، إِذْ لَمْ يُزْنَ وَرَاءَكِ، بَلْ أَنْتِ تُعْطِينَ أُجْرَةً وَلَا أُجْرَةَ تُعْطَى لَكِ، فَصِرْتِ بِٱلْعَكْسِ.
34 You are different from other women in your prostitution, in that no one follows you to play the prostitute; and whereas you give hire, and no hire is given to you, therefore you are different.”’
35 «فَلِذَلِكَ يَا زَانِيَةُ ٱسْمَعِي كَلَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ:
35 “Therefore, prostitute, hear Yahweh’s word:
36 هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أُنْفِقَ نُحَاسُكِ وَٱنْكَشَفَتْ عَوْرَتُكِ بِزِنَاكِ بِمُحِبِّيكِ وَبِكُلِّ أَصْنَامِ رَجَاسَاتِكِ، وَلِدِمَاءِ بَنِيكِ ٱلَّذِينَ بَذَلْتِهِمْ لَهَا،
36 ‘The Lord Yahweh says, “Because your filthiness was poured out, and your nakedness uncovered through your prostitution with your lovers; and because of all the idols of your abominations, and for the blood of your children, that you gave to them;
37 لِذَلِكَ هَأَنَذَا أَجْمَعُ جَمِيعَ مُحِبِّيكِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَذَذْتِ لَهُمْ، وَكُلَّ ٱلَّذِينَ أَحْبَبْتِهِمْ مَعَ كُلِّ ٱلَّذِينَ أَبْغَضْتِهِمْ، فَأَجْمَعُهُمْ عَلَيْكِ مِنْ حَوْلِكِ، وَأَكْشِفُ عَوْرَتَكِ لَهُمْ لِيَنْظُرُوا كُلَّ عَوْرَتِكِ.
37 therefore see, I will gather all your lovers, with whom you have taken pleasure, and all those whom you have loved, with all those whom you have hated. I will even gather them against you on every side, and will uncover your nakedness to them, that they may see all your nakedness.
38 وَأَحْكُمُ عَلَيْكِ أَحْكَامَ ٱلْفَاسِقَاتِ ٱلسَّافِكَاتِ ٱلدَّمِ، وَأَجْعَلُكِ دَمَ ٱلسَّخْطِ وَٱلْغَيْرَةِ.
38 I will judge you as women who break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will bring on you the blood of wrath and jealousy.
39 وَأُسَلِّمُكِ لِيَدِهِمْ فَيَهْدِمُونَ قُبَّتَكِ وَيُهَدِّمُونَ مُرْتَفَعَاتِكِ، وَيَنْزِعُونَ عَنْكِ ثِيَابَكِ، وَيَأْخُذُونَ أَدَوَاتِ زِينَتِكِ، وَيَتْرُكُونَكِ عُرْيَانَةً وَعَارِيَةً.
39 I will also give you into their hand, and they will throw down your vaulted place, and break down your lofty places. They will strip you of your clothes and take your beautiful jewels. They will leave you naked and bare.
40 وَيُصْعِدُونَ عَلَيْكِ جَمَاعَةً، وَيَرْجُمُونَكِ بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ وَيَقْطَعُونَكِ بِسُيُوفِهِمْ،
40 They will also bring up a company against you, and they will stone you with stones, and thrust you through with their swords.
41 وَيُحْرِقُونَ بُيُوتَكِ بِٱلنَّارِ، وَيُجْرُونَ عَلَيْكِ أَحْكَامًا قُدَّامَ عُيُونِ نِسَاءٍ كَثِيرَةٍ. وَأَكُفُّكِ عَنِ ٱلزِّنَا، وَأَيْضًا لَا تُعْطِينَ أُجْرَةً بَعْدُ.
41 They will burn your houses with fire, and execute judgments on you in the sight of many women. I will cause you to cease from playing the prostitute, and you will also give no hire any more.
42 وَأُحِلُّ غَضَبِي بِكِ فَتَنْصَرِفُ غَيْرَتِي عَنْكِ، فَأَسْكُنُ وَلَا أَغْضَبُ بَعْدُ.
42 So I will cause my wrath toward you to rest, and my jealousy will depart from you. I will be quiet, and will not be angry any more.
43 مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكِ لَمْ تَذْكُرِي أَيَّامَ صِبَاكِ، بَلْ أَسْخَطْتِنِي فِي كُلِّ هَذِهِ، فَهَأَنَذَا أَيْضًا أَجْلِبُ طَرِيقَكِ عَلَى رَأْسِكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، فَلَا تَفْعَلِينَ هَذِهِ ٱلرَّذِيلَةَ فَوْقَ رَجَاسَاتِكِ كُلِّهَا.
43 “‘“Because you have not remembered the days of your youth, but have raged against me in all these things; therefore, behold, I also will bring your way on your head,” says the Lord Yahweh: “and you shall not commit this lewdness with all your abominations.
44 «هُوَذَا كُلُّ ضَارِبِ مَثَلٍ يَضْرِبُ مَثَلًا عَلَيْكِ قَائِلًا: مِثْلُ ٱلْأُمِّ بِنْتُهَا.
44 “‘“Behold, everyone who uses proverbs will use this proverb against you, saying, ‘As is the mother, so is her daughter.’
45 اِبْنَةُ أُمِّكِ أَنْتِ، ٱلْكَارِهَةُ زَوْجَهَا وَبَنِيهَا. وَأَنْتِ أُخْتُ أَخَوَاتِكِ ٱللَّوَاتِي كَرِهْنَ أَزْوَاجَهُنَّ وَأَبْنَاءَهُنَّ. أُمُّكُنَّ حِثِّيَّةٌ وَأَبُوكُنَّ أَمُورِيٌّ.
45 You are the daughter of your mother, who loathes her husband and her children; and you are the sister of your sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children. Your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
46 وَأُخْتُكِ ٱلْكُبْرَى ٱلسَّامِرَةُ هِيَ وَبَنَاتُهَا ٱلسَّاكِنَةُ عَنْ شِمَالِكِ، وَأُخْتُكِ ٱلصُّغْرَى ٱلسَّاكِنَةُ عَنْ يَمِينِكِ هِيَ سَدُومُ وَبَنَاتُهَا.
46 Your elder sister is Samaria, who dwells at your left hand, she and her daughters; and your younger sister, who dwells at your right hand, is Sodom with her daughters.
47 وَلَا فِي طَرِيقِهِنَّ سَلَكْتِ، وَلَا مِثْلَ رَجَاسَاتِهِنَّ فَعَلْتِ، كَأَنَّ ذَلِكَ قَلِيلٌ فَقَطْ، فَفَسَدْتِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْهُنَّ فِي كُلِّ طُرُقِكِ.
47 Yet you have not walked in their ways, nor done their abominations; but soon you were more corrupt than they in all your ways.
48 حَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنَّ سَدُومَ أُخْتَكِ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ هِيَ وَلَا بَنَاتُهَا كَمَا فَعَلْتِ أَنْتِ وَبَنَاتُكِ.
48 As I live,” says the Lord Yahweh, “Sodom your sister has not done, she nor her daughters, as you have done, you and your daughters.
49 هَذَا كَانَ إِثْمَ أُخْتِكِ سَدُومَ: ٱلْكِبْرِيَاءُ وَٱلشَّبَعُ مِنَ ٱلْخُبْزِ وَسَلَامُ ٱلِٱطْمِئْنَانِ كَانَ لَهَا وَلِبَنَاتِهَا، وَلَمْ تُشَدِّدْ يَدَ ٱلْفَقِيرِ وَٱلْمِسْكِينِ،
49 “‘“Behold, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters. She also didn’t strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
50 وَتَكَبَّرْنَ وَعَمِلْنَ ٱلرِّجْسَ أَمَامِي فَنَزَعْتُهُنَّ كَمَا رَأَيْتُ.
50 They were arrogant and committed abomination before me. Therefore I took them away when I saw it.
51 وَلَمْ تُخْطِئِ ٱلسَّامِرَةُ نِصْفَ خَطَايَاكِ. بَلْ زِدْتِ رَجَاسَاتِكِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْهُنَّ، وَبَرَّرْتِ أَخَوَاتِكِ بِكُلِّ رَجَاسَاتِكِ ٱلَّتِي فَعَلْتِ.
51 Samaria hasn’t committed half of your sins; but you have multiplied your abominations more than they, and have justified your sisters by all your abominations which you have done.
52 فَٱحْمِلِي أَيْضًا خِزْيَكِ، أَنْتِ ٱلْقَاضِيَةُ عَلَى أَخَوَاتِكِ، بِخَطَايَاكِ ٱلَّتِي بِهَا رَجَسْتِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْهُنَّ. هُنَّ أَبَرُّ مِنْكِ، فَٱخْجَلِي أَنْتِ أَيْضًا، وَٱحْمِلِي عَارَكِ بِتَبْرِيرِكِ أَخَوَاتِكِ.
52 You also bear your own shame yourself, in that you have given judgment for your sisters; through your sins that you have committed more abominable than they, they are more righteous than you. Yes, be also confounded, and bear your shame, in that you have justified your sisters.
53 وَأُرَجِّعُ سَبْيَهُنَّ، سَبْيَ سَدُومَ وَبَنَاتِهَا، وَسَبْيَ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ وَبَنَاتِهَا، وَسَبْيَ مَسْبِيِّيكِ فِي وَسْطِهَا،
53 “‘“I will reverse their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of your captives among them;
54 لِكَيْ تَحْمِلِي عَارَكِ وَتَخْزَيْ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا فَعَلْتِ بِتَعْزِيَتِكِ إِيَّاهُنَّ.
54 that you may bear your own shame, and may be ashamed because of all that you have done, in that you are a comfort to them.
55 وَأَخَوَاتُكِ سَدُومُ وَبَنَاتُهَا يَرْجِعْنَ إِلَى حَالَتِهِنَّ ٱلْقَدِيمَةِ، وَٱلسَّامِرَةُ وَبَنَاتُهَا يَرْجِعْنَ إِلَى حَالَتِهِنَّ ٱلْقَدِيمَةِ، وَأَنْتِ وَبَنَاتُكِ تَرْجِعْنَ إِلَى حَالَتِكُنَّ ٱلْقَدِيمَةِ.
55 Your sisters, Sodom and her daughters, will return to their former estate; and Samaria and her daughters will return to their former estate; and you and your daughters will return to your former estate.
56 وَأُخْتُكِ سَدُومُ لَمْ تَكُنْ تُذْكَرْ فِي فَمِكِ يَوْمَ كِبْرِيَائِكِ،
56 For your sister Sodom was not mentioned by your mouth in the day of your pride,
57 قَبْلَ مَا ٱنْكَشَفَ شَرُّكِ، كَمَا فِي زَمَانِ تَعْيِيرِ بَنَاتِ أَرَامَ وَكُلِّ مَنْ حَوْلَهَا، بَنَاتِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ ٱللَّوَاتِي يَحْتَقِرْنَكِ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ.
57 before your wickedness was uncovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all who are around her, the daughters of the Philistines, who despise you all around.
58 رَذِيلَتُكِ وَرَجَاسَاتُكِ أَنْتِ تَحْمِلِينَهَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.
58 You have borne your lewdness and your abominations,” says Yahweh.
59 «لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنِّي أَفْعَلُ بِكِ كَمَا فَعَلْتِ، إِذِ ٱزْدَرَيْتِ بِٱلْقَسَمِ لِنَكْثِ ٱلْعَهْدِ.
59 “‘For the Lord Yahweh says: “I will also deal with you as you have done, who have despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
60 وَلَكِنِّي أَذْكُرُ عَهْدِي مَعَكِ فِي أَيَّامِ صِبَاكِ، وَأُقِيمُ لَكِ عَهْدًا أَبَدِيًّا.
60 Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with you in the days of your youth, and I will establish an everlasting covenant with you.
61 فَتَتَذَكَّرِينَ طُرُقَكِ وَتَخْجَلِينَ إِذْ تَقْبَلِينَ أَخَوَاتِكِ ٱلْكِبَرَ وَٱلصِّغَرَ، وَأَجْعَلُهُنَّ لَكِ بَنَاتٍ، وَلَكِنْ لَا بِعَهْدِكِ.
61 Then you will remember your ways and be ashamed when you receive your sisters, your elder sisters and your younger; and I will give them to you for daughters, but not by your covenant.
62 وَأَنَا أُقِيمُ عَهْدِي مَعَكِ، فَتَعْلَمِينَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ،
62 I will establish my covenant with you. Then you will know that I am Yahweh;
63 لِكَيْ تَتَذَكَّرِي فَتَخْزَيْ وَلَا تَفْتَحِي فَاكِ بَعْدُ بِسَبَبِ خِزْيِكِ، حِينَ أَغْفِرُ لَكِ كُلَّ مَا فَعَلْتِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ».
63 that you may remember, and be confounded, and never open your mouth any more because of your shame, when I have forgiven you all that you have done,” says the Lord Yahweh.’”

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 16:3 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapter VIII — 37-47)

    The prophet says to those very Jews, "Thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother a Hittite." The Amorites were not a nation that gave origin to the Jews.

    … a charge of whoredom, nevertheless from this grew the root of each of those punishments; which Ezekiel also signified when he said, "But this was the iniquity of Sodom, that she waxed wanton in pride and in fullness of bread, and in abundance of luxury." Thus the Jews also per petrated the greatest wickedness, being driven upon transgression by their …

  4. Quotes verse 16:51 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XXXVII)

    With this law of condemnation, Ezekiel too was acquainted: wherefore also he said to Jerusalem, "Thou hast justified thy sisters in all thy sins." Thus everywhere is He wont to linger in the Old Testament, as in a favored place.
