< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 13 >
وَإِذَا بِرَجُلِ ٱللهِ قَدْ أَتَى مِنْ يَهُوذَا بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى بَيْتِ إِيلَ، وَيَرُبْعَامُ وَاقِفٌ لَدَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ لِكَيْ يُوقِدَ. | ١ 1 |
And beholde, there came a man of God out of Iudah (by the commandement of the Lord) vnto Beth-el, and Ieroboam stoode by the altar to offer incense.
فَنَادَى نَحْوَ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: «يَا مَذْبَحُ، يَامَذْبَحُ، هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هُوَذَا سَيُولَدُ لِبَيْتِ دَاوُدَ ٱبْنٌ ٱسْمُهُ يُوشِيَّا، وَيَذْبَحُ عَلَيْكَ كَهَنَةَ ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُوقِدُونَ عَلَيْكَ، وَتُحْرَقُ عَلَيْكَ عِظَامُ ٱلنَّاسِ». | ٢ 2 |
And he cryed against the altar by the comandement of the Lord, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord, Beholde, a child shalbe borne vnto the house of Dauid, Iosiah by name, and vpon thee shall he sacrifice the Priestes of the hie places that burne incense vpon thee, and they shall burne mens bones vpon thee.
وَأَعْطَى فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ عَلَامَةً قَائِلًا: «هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْعَلَامَةُ ٱلَّتِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ: هُوَذَا ٱلْمَذْبَحُ يَنْشَقُّ وَيُذْرَى ٱلرَّمَادُ ٱلَّذِي عَلَيْهِ». | ٣ 3 |
And he gaue a signe the same time, saying, This is the signe, that the Lord hath spoken, Behold, the altar shall rent, and the ashes that are vpon it, shall fall out.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ كَلَامَ رَجُلِ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي نَادَى نَحْوَ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ فِي بَيْتِ إِيلَ، مَدَّ يَرُبْعَامُ يَدَهُ عَنِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ قَائِلًا: «أَمْسِكُوهُ». فَيَبِسَتْ يَدُهُ ٱلَّتِي مَدَّهَا نَحْوَهُ وَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يَرُدَّهَا إِلَيْهِ. | ٤ 4 |
And when the King had heard the saying of the man of God, which he had cryed against the altar in Beth-el, Ieroboam stretched out his hand from the altar, saying, Lay holde on him: but his hande which he put foorth against him, dryed vp, and he could not pull it in againe to him.
وَٱنْشَقَّ ٱلْمَذْبَحُ وَذُرِيَ ٱلرَّمَادُ مِن عَلىَ ٱلْمَذبَحِ حَسَبَ ٱلْعَلَامَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاهَا رَجُلُ ٱللهِ بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٥ 5 |
The altar also claue asunder, and the ashes fell out from the altar, according to the signe, which the man of God had giuen by the commandement of the Lord.
فَأَجَابَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالَ لِرَجُلِ ٱللهِ: «تَضَرَّعْ إِلَى وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ وَصَلِّ مِنْ أَجْلِي فَتَرْجِعَ يَدِي إِلَيَّ». فَتَضَرَّعَ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ إِلَى وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ فَرَجَعَتْ يَدُ ٱلْمَلِكِ إِلَيْهِ وَكَانَتْ كَمَا فِي ٱلْأَوَّلِ. | ٦ 6 |
Then the King answered, and saide vnto the man of God, I beseeche thee, pray vnto ye Lord thy God, and make intercession for me, that mine hand may bee restored vnto me. And the man of God besought the Lord, and the Kings hand was restored, and became as it was afore.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِرَجُلِ ٱللهِ: «ٱدْخُلْ مَعِي إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَتَقَوَّتْ فَأُعْطِيَكَ أُجْرَةً». | ٧ 7 |
Then the King sayde vnto the man of God, Come home with mee, that thou mayest dyne, and I will giue thee a reward.
فَقَالَ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ لِلْمَلِكِ: «لَوْ أَعْطَيْتَنِي نِصْفَ بَيْتِكَ لَا أَدْخُلُ مَعَكَ وَلَا آكُلُ خُبْزًا وَلَا أَشْرَبُ مَاءً فِي هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ. | ٨ 8 |
But the man of God saide vnto the King, If thou wouldest giue me halfe thine house, I would not goe in with thee, neither woulde I eate bread nor drinke water in this place.
لِأَنِّي هَكَذَا أُوصِيتُ بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: لَا تَأْكُلْ خُبْزًا وَلَا تَشْرَبْ مَاءً وَلَا تَرْجِعْ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي ذَهَبْتَ فِيهِ». | ٩ 9 |
For so was it charged mee by the worde of the Lord, saying, Eate no bread nor drinke water, nor turne againe by the same way that thou camest.
فَذَهَبَ فِي طَرِيقٍ آخَرَ، وَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي جَاءَ فِيهِ إِلَى بَيْتِ إِيلَ. | ١٠ 10 |
So he went another way and returned not by the way that he came to Beth-el.
وَكَانَ نَبِيٌّ شَيْخٌ سَاكِنًا فِي بَيْتِ إِيلَ، فَأَتَى بَنُوهُ وَقَصُّوا عَلَيْهِ كُلَّ ٱلْعَمَلِ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَهُ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ فِي بَيْتِ إِيلَ، وَقَصُّوا عَلَى أَبِيهِمِ ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ١١ 11 |
And an olde Prophet dwelt in Beth-el, and his sonnes came and tolde him all ye woorkes, that the man of God had done that day in Beth-el, and the wordes which he had spoken vnto the King, tolde they their father.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ أَبُوهُمْ: «مِنْ أَيِّ طَرِيقٍ ذَهَبَ؟» وَكَانَ بَنُوهُ قَدْ رَأَوْا ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلَّذِي سَارَ فِيهِ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ الذَّي جَاءَ مِنْ يَهُوذَا. | ١٢ 12 |
And their father sayde vnto them, What way went he? and his sonnes shewed him what waye the man of God went, which came from Iudah.
فَقَالَ لِبَنِيهِ: «شُدُّوا لِي عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ». فَشَدُّوا لَهُ عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ فَرَكِبَ عَلَيْهِ | ١٣ 13 |
And hee saide vnto his sonnes, Saddle mee the asse. Who sadled him the asse, and hee rode thereon,
وَسَارَ وَرَاءَ رَجُلِ ٱللهِ، فَوَجَدَهُ جَالِسًا تَحْتَ ٱلْبَلُّوطَةِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَأَنْتَ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي جَاءَ مِنْ يَهُوذَا؟» فَقَالَ: «أَنَا هُوَ». | ١٤ 14 |
And went after the man of God, and found him sitting vnder an oke: and he saide vnto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Iudah? And he sayd, Yea.
فَقَالَ لَهُ: «سِرْ مَعِي إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَكُلْ خُبْزًا». | ١٥ 15 |
Then he said vnto him, Come home with me, and eate bread.
فَقَالَ: «لَا أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَرْجِعَ مَعَكَ وَلَا أَدْخُلُ مَعَكَ وَلَا آكُلُ خُبْزًا وَلَا أَشْرَبُ مَعَكَ مَاءً فِي هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ، | ١٦ 16 |
But he answered, I may not returne with thee, nor go in with thee, neither wil I eate bread nor drinke water with thee in this place.
لِأَنَّهُ قِيلَ لِي بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ: لَا تَأْكُلْ خُبْزًا وَلَا تَشْرَبْ هُنَاكَ مَاءً. وَلَا تَرْجِعْ سَائِرًا فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي ذَهَبْتَ فِيهِ». | ١٧ 17 |
For it was charged me by the word of the Lord, saying, Thou shalt eate no bread, nor drinke water there, nor turne againe to goe by the way that thou wentest.
فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَنَا أَيْضًا نَبِيٌّ مِثْلُكَ، وَقَدْ كَلَّمَنِي مَلَاكٌ بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ٱرْجِعْ بِهِ مَعَكَ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ فَيَأْكُلَ خُبْزًا وَيَشْرَبَ مَاءً». كَذَبَ عَلَيْهِ. | ١٨ 18 |
And he said vnto him, I am a Prophet also as thou art, and an Angel spake vnto me by the worde of the Lord, saying, Bring him againe with thee into thine house, that hee may eate bread and drinke water: but he lyed vnto him.
فَرَجَعَ مَعَهُ وَأَكَلَ خُبْزًا فِي بَيْتِهِ وَشَرِبَ مَاءً. | ١٩ 19 |
So he went againe with him, and did eate bread in his house, and dranke water.
وَبَيْنَمَا هُمَا جَالِسَانِ عَلَى ٱلْمَائِدَةِ كَانَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى ٱلنَّبِيِّ ٱلَّذِي أَرْجَعَهُ، | ٢٠ 20 |
And as they sate at the table, the worde of the Lord came vnto the Prophet, that brought him againe.
فَصَاحَ إِلَى رَجُلِ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي جَاءَ مِنْ يَهُوذَا قَائِلًا: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ خَالَفْتَ قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَلَمْ تَحْفَظِ ٱلْوَصِيَّةَ ٱلَّتِي أَوْصَاكَ بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، | ٢١ 21 |
And hee cried vnto the man of God that came from Iudah, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, Because thou hast disobeyed the mouth of the Lord, and hast not kept the commandement which the Lord thy God commanded thee,
فَرَجَعْتَ وَأَكَلْتَ خُبْزًا وَشَرِبْتَ مَاءً فِي ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَكَ: لَا تَأْكُلْ فِيهِ خُبْزًا وَلَا تَشْرَبْ مَاءً، لَا تَدْخُلُ جُثَّتُكَ قَبْرَ آبَائِكَ». | ٢٢ 22 |
But camest backe againe, and hast eaten bread and drunke water in the place (whereof he did say vnto thee, Thou shalt eate no bread nor drinke any water) thy carkeis shall not come vnto the sepulchre of thy fathers.
ثُمَّ بَعْدَمَا أَكَلَ خُبْزًا وَبَعْدَ أَنْ شَرِبَ شَدَّ لَهُ عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ، أَيْ لِلنَّبِيِّ ٱلَّذِي أَرْجَعَهُ، | ٢٣ 23 |
And when he had eaten bread and drunke, he sadled him the asse, to wit, to the Prophet whome he had brought againe.
وَٱنْطَلَقَ. فَصَادَفَهُ أَسَدٌ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَقَتَلَهُ. وَكَانَتْ جُثَّتُهُ مَطْرُوحَةً فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَٱلْحِمَارُ وَاقِفٌ بِجَانِبِهَا وَٱلْأَسَدُ وَاقِفٌ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْجُثَّةِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And when hee was gone, a lion met him by the way, and slewe him, and his body was cast in the way, and the asse stoode thereby: the lion stood by the corps also.
وَإِذَا بِقَوْمٍ يَعْبُرُونَ فَرَأَوْا ٱلْجُثَّةَ، مَطْرُوحَةً فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَٱلْأَسَدُ وَاقِفٌ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْجُثَّةِ. فَأَتَوْا وَأَخْبَرُوا فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلشَّيْخُ سَاكِنًا بِهَا. | ٢٥ 25 |
And beholde, men that passed by, sawe the carkeis cast in the way, and the lion standing by the corps: and they came and tolde it in ye towne where the olde Prophet dwelt.
وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي أَرْجَعَهُ عَنِ ٱلطَّرِيقِ قَالَ: «هُوَ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي خَالَفَ قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَدَفَعَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلْأَسَدِ فَٱفْتَرَسَهُ وَقَتَلَهُ حَسَبَ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَهُ بِهِ». | ٢٦ 26 |
And when the Prophet that brought him backe againe from the waye, hearde thereof, hee sayde, It is the man of God, who hath bene disobedient vnto the commandement of the Lord: therefore the Lord hath deliuered him vnto the lion, which hath rent him and slayne him, according to the worde of the Lord, which hee spake vnto him.
وَكَلَّمَ بَنِيهِ قَائِلًا: «شُدُّوا لِي عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ». فَشَدُّوا. | ٢٧ 27 |
And he spake to his sonnes, saying, Saddle me the asse. And they sadled him.
فَذَهَبَ وَوَجَدَ جُثَّتَهُ مَطْرُوحَةً فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، وَٱلْحِمَارَ وَٱلْأَسَدَ وَاقِفَيْنِ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْجُثَّةِ، وَلَمْ يَأْكُلِ ٱلْأَسَدُ ٱلْجُثَّةَ وَلَا ٱفْتَرَسَ ٱلْحِمَارَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
And he went and founde his body cast in the way, and the asse and the lion stoode by the corps: and the lion had not eaten the bodie, nor torne the asse.
فَرَفَعَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ جُثَّةَ رَجُلِ ٱللهِ وَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ وَرَجَعَ بِهَا، وَدَخَلَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلشَّيْخُ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ لِيَنْدُبَهُ وَيَدْفِنَهُ | ٢٩ 29 |
And the Prophet tooke vp the body of the man of God, and layed it vpon the asse, and brought it againe, and the olde Prophet came to the citie, to lament and burie him.
فَوَضَعَ جُثَّتَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ وَنَاحُوا عَلَيْهِ قَائِلِينَ: «آهُ يَاأَخِي». | ٣٠ 30 |
And hee layed his bodie in his owne graue, and they lamented ouer him, saying, Alas, my brother.
وَبَعْدَ دَفْنِهِ إِيَّاهُ كَلَّمَ بَنِيهِ قَائِلًا: «عِنْدَ وَفَاتِي ٱدْفِنُونِي فِي ٱلْقَبْرِ ٱلَّذِي دُفِنَ فِيهِ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ. بِجَانِبِ عِظَامِهِ ضَعُوا عِظَامِي. | ٣١ 31 |
And when he had buried him, hee spake to his sonnes, saying, When I am dead, burie ye mee also in the sepulchre, wherein the man of God is buried: lay my bones beside his bones.
لِأَنَّهُ تَمَامًا سَيَتِمُّ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي نَادَى بِهِ بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ نَحْوَ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ ٱلَّذِي فِي بَيْتِ إِيلَ، وَنَحْوَ جَمِيعِ بُيُوتِ ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ ٱلَّتِي فِي مُدُنِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ». | ٣٢ 32 |
For that thing which he cried by the word of the Lord against the altar that is in Beth-el, and against all the houses of the hie places, which are in the cities of Samaria, shall surely come to passe.
بَعْدَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ لَمْ يَرْجِعْ يَرُبْعَامُ عَنْ طَرِيقِهِ ٱلرَّدِيَّةِ، بَلْ عَادَ فَعَمِلَ مِنْ أَطْرَافِ ٱلشَّعْبِ كَهَنَةَ مُرْتَفَعَاتٍ. مَنْ شَاءَ مَلَأَ يَدَهُ فَصَارَ مِنْ كَهَنَةِ ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
Howbeit after this, Ieroboam conuerted not from his wicked way, but turned againe, and made of the lowest of the people Priests of the hie places. Who would, might consecrate him selfe, and be of the Priestes of the hie places.
وَكَانَ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ خَطِيَّةٌ لِبَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ، وَكَانَ لِإِبَادَتِهِ وَخَرَابِهِ عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٣٤ 34 |
And this thing turned to sinne vnto the house of Ieroboam, euen to roote it out, and destroy it from the face of the earth.
