< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 13 >
وَإِذَا بِرَجُلِ ٱللهِ قَدْ أَتَى مِنْ يَهُوذَا بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى بَيْتِ إِيلَ، وَيَرُبْعَامُ وَاقِفٌ لَدَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ لِكَيْ يُوقِدَ. | ١ 1 |
And behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the LORD to Beth-el: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn 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 cried against the altar in the word of the LORD, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the LORD; Behold, a child shall be born to the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burnt upon 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 gave a sign the same day, saying, This [is] the sign which the LORD hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that [are] upon it shall be poured 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 it came to pass when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, who had cried against the altar in Beth-el, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not draw it to him again.
وَٱنْشَقَّ ٱلْمَذْبَحُ وَذُرِيَ ٱلرَّمَادُ مِن عَلىَ ٱلْمَذبَحِ حَسَبَ ٱلْعَلَامَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاهَا رَجُلُ ٱللهِ بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٥ 5 |
The altar also was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word 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 |
And the king answered and said to the man of God, Entreat now the face of the LORD thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me again. And the man of God besought the LORD, and the king's hand was restored to him again, and became as [it was] before.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِرَجُلِ ٱللهِ: «ٱدْخُلْ مَعِي إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَتَقَوَّتْ فَأُعْطِيَكَ أُجْرَةً». | ٧ 7 |
And the king said to the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give 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 |
And the man of God said to the king, If thou wilt give me half thy house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink 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 me by the word of the LORD, saying, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor turn again 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 |
Now there dwelt an old prophet in Beth-el; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Beth-el: the words which he had spoken to the king, them they told also to 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 said to them, What way went he? for his sons had seen what way the man of God went, who came from Judah.
فَقَالَ لِبَنِيهِ: «شُدُّوا لِي عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ». فَشَدُّوا لَهُ عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ فَرَكِبَ عَلَيْهِ | ١٣ 13 |
And he said to his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass: and he rode upon it.
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 under an oak: and he said to him, [Art] thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I [am].
فَقَالَ لَهُ: «سِرْ مَعِي إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَكُلْ خُبْزًا». | ١٥ 15 |
Then he said to him, Come home with me, and eat bread.
فَقَالَ: «لَا أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَرْجِعَ مَعَكَ وَلَا أَدْخُلُ مَعَكَ وَلَا آكُلُ خُبْزًا وَلَا أَشْرَبُ مَعَكَ مَاءً فِي هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ، | ١٦ 16 |
And he said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee: neither will I eat bread nor drink 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 said to me by the word of the LORD, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou camest.
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 |
He said to him, I [am] a prophet also as thou [art]; and an angel spoke to me by the word of the LORD, saying, Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread and drink water. [But] he lied to him.
فَرَجَعَ مَعَهُ وَأَكَلَ خُبْزًا فِي بَيْتِهِ وَشَرِبَ مَاءً. | ١٩ 19 |
So he went back with him, and ate bread in his house, and drank water.
وَبَيْنَمَا هُمَا جَالِسَانِ عَلَى ٱلْمَائِدَةِ كَانَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى ٱلنَّبِيِّ ٱلَّذِي أَرْجَعَهُ، | ٢٠ 20 |
And it came to pass, as they sat at the table, that the word of the LORD came to the prophet that brought him back:
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 he cried to the man of God that came from Judah, saying, Thus saith the LORD, Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the mouth of the LORD, and hast not kept the commandment 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 hast returned, and hast eaten bread and drank water in the place, of which [the LORD] said to thee, Eat no bread, and drink no water; thy carcass shall not come to the sepulcher of thy fathers.
ثُمَّ بَعْدَمَا أَكَلَ خُبْزًا وَبَعْدَ أَنْ شَرِبَ شَدَّ لَهُ عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ، أَيْ لِلنَّبِيِّ ٱلَّذِي أَرْجَعَهُ، | ٢٣ 23 |
And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drank, that he saddled for him the ass, [to wit], for the prophet whom he had brought back.
وَٱنْطَلَقَ. فَصَادَفَهُ أَسَدٌ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَقَتَلَهُ. وَكَانَتْ جُثَّتُهُ مَطْرُوحَةً فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَٱلْحِمَارُ وَاقِفٌ بِجَانِبِهَا وَٱلْأَسَدُ وَاقِفٌ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْجُثَّةِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And when he had gone, a lion met him by the way, and slew him: and his carcass was cast in the way, and the ass stood by it, the lion also stood by the carcass.
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 behold, men passed by, and saw the carcass cast in the way, and the lion standing by the carcass: and they came and told [it] in the city where the old 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 back from the way heard [of it], he said, It [is] the man of God, who was disobedient to the word of the LORD: therefore the LORD hath delivered him to the lion, which hath torn him, and slain him, according to the word of the LORD, which he spoke to him.
وَكَلَّمَ بَنِيهِ قَائِلًا: «شُدُّوا لِي عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ». فَشَدُّوا. | ٢٧ 27 |
And he spoke to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass. And they saddled [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 found his carcass cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the carcass: the lion had not eaten the carcass, nor torn the ass.
فَرَفَعَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ جُثَّةَ رَجُلِ ٱللهِ وَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى ٱلْحِمَارِ وَرَجَعَ بِهَا، وَدَخَلَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلشَّيْخُ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ لِيَنْدُبَهُ وَيَدْفِنَهُ | ٢٩ 29 |
And the prophet took up the carcass of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back: and the old prophet came to the city, to mourn and to bury him.
فَوَضَعَ جُثَّتَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ وَنَاحُوا عَلَيْهِ قَائِلِينَ: «آهُ يَاأَخِي». | ٣٠ 30 |
And he laid his carcass in his own grave; and they mourned over 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 it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons, saying, When I am dead, then bury me in the sepulcher in which 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 the saying which he cried by the word of the LORD against the altar in Beth-el, and against all the houses of the high places which [are] in the cities of Samaria, shall surely come to pass.
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 |
After this thing Jeroboam returned not from his evil way, but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high places: whoever would, he consecrated him, and he became [one] of the priests of the high places.
وَكَانَ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ خَطِيَّةٌ لِبَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ، وَكَانَ لِإِبَادَتِهِ وَخَرَابِهِ عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٣٤ 34 |
And this thing became sin to the house of Jeroboam, even to cut [it off], and to destroy [it] from the face of the earth.
