١ 1 وَبَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ بِكْرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلْبِكْرُ، وَلِأَجْلِ تَدْنِيسِهِ فِرَاشَ أَبِيهِ، أُعْطِيَتْ بَكُورِيَّتُهُ لِبَنِي يُوسُفَ بْنِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَلَمْ يُنْسَبْ بِكْرًا.

And the sons of Reuben the first-born of Israel—for he was the first-born; but, when the defiled his father's bed, was his birthright given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: so that the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the first-birth.

٢ 2 لِأَنَّ يَهُوذَا ٱعْتَزَّ عَلَى إِخْوَتِهِ وَمِنْهُ ٱلرَّئِيسُ، وَأَمَّا ٱلْبَكُورِيَّةُ فَلِيُوسُفَ.

Beerah his son, whom Tilgath-pilneesser the king of Assyria carried into exile: he was the prince of the Reubenites.

٧ 7 وَإِخْوَتُهُ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ فِي ٱلِٱنْتِسَابِ حَسَبَ مَوَالِيدِهِمِ: ٱلرَّئِيسُ يَعِيئِيلُ وَزَكَرِيَّا،

And to the eastward he dwelt as far as the entrance of the wilderness from the river Euphrates; because their cattle were numerous in the land of Gil'ad.

١٠ 10 وَفِي أَيَّامِ شَاوُلَ عَمِلُوا حَرْبًا مَعَ ٱلْهَاجَرِيِّينَ فَسَقَطُوا بِأَيْدِيهِمْ وَسَكَنُوا فِي خِيَامِهِمْ فِي جَمِيعِ جِهَاتِ شَرْقِ جِلْعَادَ.

All these were recorded by their genealogies in the days of Jotham the king of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo'am the king of Israel.

١٨ 18 بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ وَٱلْجَادِيُّونَ وَنِصْفُ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى مِنْ بَنِي ٱلْبَأْسِ، رِجَالٌ يَحْمِلُونَ ٱلتُّرْسَ وَٱلسَّيْفَ وَيَشُدُّونَ ٱلْقَوْسَ وَمُتَعَلِّمُونَ ٱلْقِتَالَ، أَرْبَعَةٌ وَأَرْبَعُونَ أَلْفًا وَسَبْعُ مِئَةٍ وَسِتُّونَ مِنَ ٱلْخَارِجِينَ فِي ٱلْجَيْشِ.

The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Menasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear shield and sword, and to draw the bow, and practised in war, were four and forty thousand seven hundred and sixty, that went out to the army.

١٩ 19 وَعَمِلُوا حَرْبًا مَعَ ٱلْهَاجَرِيِّينَ وَيَطُورَ وَنَافِيشَ وَنُودَابَ،

And they made war with the Hagarenes, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab.

٢٠ 20 فَٱنْتَصَرُوا عَلَيْهِمْ. فَدُفِعَ لِيَدِهِمِ ٱلْهَاجَرِيُّونَ وَكُلُّ مَنْ مَعَهُمْ لِأَنَّهُمْ صَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱللهِ فِي ٱلْقِتَالِ، فَٱسْتَجَابَ لَهُمْ لِأَنَّهُمُ اُتَّكَلُوا عَلَيْهِ.

And they obtained help against them, and the Hagarenes were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them; for to God they cried in the battle, and he was entreated by them; because they put their trust in him.

٢١ 21 وَنَهَبُوا مَاشِيَتَهُمْ: جِمَالَهُمْ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفًا، وَغَنَمًا مِئَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ أَلْفًا، وَحَمِيرًا أَلْفَيْنِ. وَسَبَوْا أُنَاسًا مِئَةَ أَلْفٍ.

And they led away captive their cattle: of their camels fifty thousand, and of sheep two hundred and fifty thousand, and of asses two thousand, and of human beings one hundred thousand.

٢٢ 22 لِأَنَّهُ سَقَطَ قَتْلَى كَثِيرُونَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْقِتَالَ إِنَّمَا كَانَ مِنَ ٱللهِ. وَسَكَنُوا مَكَانَهُمْ إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ.

For there fell down many slain; because the war was of God. And they dwelt in their stead until the exile.

٢٣ 23 وَبَنُو نِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى سَكَنُوا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱمْتَدُّوا مِنْ بَاشَانَ إِلَى بَعْلِ حَرْمُونَ وَسَنِيرَ وَجَبَلِ حَرْمُونَ.

٢٤ 24 وَهَؤُلَاءِ رُؤُوسُ بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ: عَافَرُ وَيَشْعِي وَأَلِيئِيلُ وَعَزْرِيئِيلُ وَيَرْمِيَا وَهُودَوْيَا وَيَحْدِيئِيلُ رِجَالٌ جَبَابِرَةُ بَأْسٍ وَذَوُو ٱسْمٍ وَرُؤُوسٌ لِبُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ.

And these were the heads of their family divisions: namely, 'Epher, and Yish'i, and Eliel, and 'Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodavyah, and Jachdiel, mighty men of valor, famous men, [and] heads of their family divisions.

٢٥ 25 وَخَانُوا إِلَهَ آبَائِهِمْ وَزَنَوْا وَرَاءَ آلِهَةِ شُعُوبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّذِينَ طَرَدَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِهِمْ.

But they trespassed against the God of their fathers, and went astray after the gods of the people of the land, whom God had destroyed from before them.

And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul the king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgath-pilnesser the king of Assyria, and he carried them into exile, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Menasseh, and brought them unto Chalach, and Chabor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, even until this day.
