اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 21

١ 1 وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِنَابُوتَ ٱلْيَزْرَعِيلِيِّ كَرْمٌ فِي يَزْرَعِيلَ بِجَانِبِ قَصْرِ أَخْآبَ مَلِكِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ.

And it was after the things these a vineyard it belonged to Naboth the Jezreelite which [was] in Jezreel beside [the] palace of Ahab [the] king of Samaria.

٢ 2 فَكَلَّمَ أَخْآبُ نَابُوتَ قَائِلًا: «أَعْطِنِي كَرْمَكَ فَيَكُونَ لِي بُسْتَانَ بُقُولٍ، لِأَنَّهُ قَرِيبٌ بِجَانِبِ بَيْتِي، فَأُعْطِيَكَ عِوَضَهُ كَرْمًا أَحْسَنَ مِنْهُ. أَوْ إِذَا حَسُنَ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ أَعْطَيْتُكَ ثَمَنَهُ فِضَّةً».

And he spoke Ahab to Naboth - saying - give! to me vineyard your so may it belong to me to a garden of vegetables for it [is] near beside house my and I will give to you in place of it a vineyard good more than it if [it is] good in view your I will give to you money [the] price of this [one].

٣ 3 فَقَالَ نَابُوتُ لِأَخْآبَ: «حَاشَا لِي مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ أُعْطِيَكَ مِيرَاثَ آبَائِي».

And he said Naboth to Ahab far be it to me from Yahweh than to give I [the] inheritance of ancestors my to you.

٤ 4 فَدَخَلَ أَخْآبُ بَيْتَهُ مُكْتَئِبًا مَغْمُومًا مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَهُ بِهِ نَابُوتُ ٱلْيَزْرَعِيلِيُّ قَائِلًا: «لَا أُعْطِيكَ مِيرَاثَ آبَائِي». وَٱضْطَجَعَ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ وَحَوَّلَ وَجْهَهُ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ خُبْزًا.

And he went Ahab to house his sullen and furious on the word which he had spoken to him Naboth the Jezreelite and he said not I will give to you [the] inheritance of ancestors my and he lay down on bed his and he turned around face his and not he ate food.

٥ 5 فَدَخَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ إِيزَابَلُ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «لِمَاذَا رُوحُكَ مُكْتَئِبَةٌ وَلَا تَأْكُلُ خُبْزًا؟»

And she came to him Jezebel wife his and she spoke to him why? this [is] spirit your sullen and not you [are] eating food.

٦ 6 فَقَالَ لَهَا: «لِأَنِّي كَلَّمْتُ نَابُوتَ ٱلْيَزْرَعِيلِيَّ وَقُلْتُ لَهُ: أَعْطِنِي كَرْمَكَ بِفِضَّةٍ، وَإِذَا شِئْتَ أَعْطَيْتُكَ كَرْمًا عِوَضَهُ، فَقَالَ: لَا أُعْطِيكَ كَرْمِي».

And he spoke to her for I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite and I said to him give! to me vineyard your for money or if [are] desiring you I will give to you a vineyard in place of it and he said not I will give to you vineyard my.

٧ 7 فَقَالَتْ لَهُ إِيزَابَلُ: «أَأَنْتَ ٱلْآنَ تَحْكُمُ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ قُمْ كُلْ خُبْزًا وَلْيَطِبْ قَلْبُكَ. أَنَا أُعْطِيكَ كَرْمَ نَابُوتَ ٱلْيَزْرَعِيلِيِّ».

And she said to him Jezebel wife his you now are you doing? kingship over Israel arise eat food so it may be good heart your I I will give to you [the] vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.

٨ 8 ثُمَّ كَتَبَتْ رَسَائِلَ بِٱسْمِ أَخْآبَ، وَخَتَمَتْهَا بِخَاتِمِهِ، وَأَرْسَلَتِ ٱلرَّسَائِلَ إِلَى ٱلشُّيُوخِ وَٱلْأَشْرَافِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي مَدِينَتِهِ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ مَعَ نَابُوتَ.

And she wrote letters in [the] name of Ahab and she sealed [them] with seal his and she sent (letters *Q(K)*) to the elders and to the nobles who [were] in city his who dwelt with Naboth.

٩ 9 وَكَتَبَتْ فِي ٱلرَّسَائِلِ تَقُولُ: «نَادُوا بِصَوْمٍ، وَأَجْلِسُوا نَابُوتَ فِي رَأْسِ ٱلشَّعْبِ.

And she wrote in the letters saying proclaim a fast and make sit Naboth at [the] head of the people.

١٠ 10 وَأَجْلِسُوا رَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ بَنِي بَلِيَّعَالَ تُجَاهَهُ لِيَشْهَدَا قَائِلَيْنِ: قَدْ جَدَّفْتَ عَلَى ٱللهِ وَعَلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. ثُمَّ أَخْرِجُوهُ وَٱرْجُمُوهُ فَيَمُوتَ».

And make sit two men sons of worthlessness before him and let them testify against him saying you have blessed God and [the] king and take out him and stone him so may he die.

١١ 11 فَفَعَلَ رِجَالُ مَدِينَتِهِ، ٱلشُّيُوخُ وَٱلْأَشْرَافُ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي مَدِينَتِهِ، كَمَا أَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِمْ إِيزَابَلُ، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي ٱلرَّسَائِلِ ٱلَّتِي أَرْسَلَتْهَا إِلَيْهِمْ.

And they did [the] people of city his the elders and the nobles who [were] the [ones who] dwelt in city his just as she had sent to them Jezebel just as [it was] written in the letters which she had sent to them.

١٢ 12 فَنَادَوْا بِصَوْمٍ وَأَجْلَسُوا نَابُوتَ فِي رَأْسِ ٱلشَّعْبِ.

They proclaimed a fast and they made sit Naboth at [the] head of the people.

١٣ 13 وَأَتَى رَجُلَانِ مِنْ بَنِي بَلِيَّعَالَ وَجَلَسَا تُجَاهَهُ، وَشَهِدَ رَجُلَا بِليَّعَالَ عَلَى نَابُوتَ أَمَامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ قَائِلَيْنِ: «قَدْ جَدَّفَ نَابُوتُ عَلَى ٱللهِ وَعَلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ». فَأَخْرَجُوهُ خَارِجَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَرَجَمُوهُ بِحِجَارَةٍ فَمَاتَ.

And they came [the] two the men sons of worthlessness and they sat before him and they testified against him [the] men of worthlessness Naboth before the people saying he has blessed Naboth God and [the] king and they took out him from [the] outside of the city and they stoned him with stones and he died.

١٤ 14 وَأَرْسَلُوا إِلَى إِيزَابَلَ يَقُولُونَ: «قَدْ رُجِمَ نَابُوتُ وَمَاتَ».

And they sent to Jezebel saying he has been stoned Naboth and he has died.

١٥ 15 وَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ إِيزَابَلُ أَنَّ نَابُوتَ قَدْ رُجِمَ وَمَاتَ، قَالَتْ إِيزَابَلُ لِأَخْآبَ: «قُمْ رِثْ كَرْمَ نَابُوتَ ٱلْيَزْرَعِيلِيِّ ٱلَّذِي أَبَى أَنْ يُعْطِيَكَ إِيَّاهُ بِفِضَّةٍ، لِأَنَّ نَابُوتَ لَيْسَ حَيًّا بَلْ هُوَ مَيْتٌ».

And it was when heard Jezebel that he had been stoned Naboth and he had died and she said Jezebel to Ahab arise take possession of [the] vineyard of - Naboth the Jezreelite which he refused to give to you for money for not Naboth [is] alive for he has died.

١٦ 16 وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَخْآبُ أَنَّ نَابُوتَ قَدْ مَاتَ، قَامَ أَخْآبُ لِيَنْزِلَ إِلَى كَرْمِ نَابُوتَ ٱلْيَزْرَعِيلِيِّ لِيَرِثَهُ.

And it was when heard Ahab that he had died Naboth and he arose Ahab to go down to [the] vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite to take possession of it.

١٧ 17 فَكَانَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى إِيلِيَّا ٱلتِّشْبِيِّ قَائِلًا:

And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Elijah the Tishbite saying.

١٨ 18 «قُمِ ٱنْزِلْ لِلِقَاءِ أَخْآبَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ. هُوَذَا هُوَ فِي كَرْمِ نَابُوتَ ٱلَّذِي نَزَلَ إِلَيْهِ لِيَرِثَهُ.

Arise go down to meet Ahab [the] king of Israel who [is] in Samaria there! [he is] in [the] vineyard of Naboth where he has gone down there to take possession of it.

١٩ 19 وَكَلِّمْهُ قَائِلًا: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَلْ قَتَلْتَ وَوَرِثْتَ أَيْضًا؟ ثُمَّ كَلِّمْهُ قَائِلًا: هَكَذاَ قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي لَحَسَتْ فِيهِ ٱلْكِلَابُ دَمَ نَابُوتَ تَلْحَسُ ٱلْكِلَابُ دَمَكَ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا».

And you will speak to him saying thus he says Yahweh ¿ have you murdered and also have you taken possession? and you will speak to him saying thus he says Yahweh in [the] place where they licked up the dogs [the] blood of Naboth they will lick up the dogs blood your also you.

٢٠ 20 فَقَالَ أَخْآبُ لِإِيلِيَّا: «هَلْ وَجَدْتَنِي يَا عَدُوِّي؟» فَقَالَ: «قَدْ وَجَدْتُكَ لِأَنَّكَ قَدْ بِعْتَ نَفْسَكَ لِعَمَلِ ٱلشَّرِّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ.

And he said Ahab to Elijah ¿ have you found me O enemy my and he said I have found [you] because you having sold yourself to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.

٢١ 21 هَأَنَذَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكَ شَرًّا، وَأُبِيدُ نَسْلَكَ، وَأَقْطَعُ لِأَخْآبَ كُلَّ بَائِلٍ بِحَائِطٍ وَمَحْجُوزٍ وَمُطْلَقٍ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.

Here I ([am] about to bring *Q(k)*) to you evil and I will sweep away after you and I will cut off to Ahab [one who] urinates on a wall and shut up and freed in Israel.

٢٢ 22 وَأَجْعَلُ بَيْتَكَ كَبَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ نَبَاطَ، وَكَبَيْتِ بَعْشَا بْنِ أَخِيَّا، لِأَجْلِ ٱلْإِغَاظَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَغَظْتَنِي، وَلِجَعْلِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُخْطِئُ».

And I will make house your like [the] house of Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat and like [the] house of Baasha [the] son of Ahijah because of the provocation which you have provoked to anger and you have caused to sin Israel.

٢٣ 23 وَتَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ إِيزَابَلَ أَيْضًا قَائِلًا: «إِنَّ ٱلْكِلَابَ تَأْكُلُ إِيزَابَلَ عِنْدَ مِتْرَسَةِ يَزْرَعِيلَ.

And also of Jezebel he has spoken Yahweh saying the dogs they will devour Jezebel in [the] rampart of Jezreel.

٢٤ 24 مَنْ مَاتَ لِأَخْآبَ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ تَأْكُلُهُ ٱلْكِلَابُ، وَمَنْ مَاتَ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ تَأْكُلُهُ طُيُورُ ٱلسَّمَاءِ».

The [one who] dies of Ahab in the city they will devour the dogs and the [one who] dies in the open country they will devour [the] bird[s] of the heavens.

٢٥ 25 وَلَمْ يَكُنْ كَأَخْآبَ ٱلَّذِي بَاعَ نَفْسَهُ لِعَمَلِ ٱلشَّرِّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ، ٱلَّذِي أَغْوَتْهُ إِيزَابَلُ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ.

Certainly not anyone was like Ahab who he sold himself to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh whom she incited him Jezebel wife his.

٢٦ 26 وَرَجِسَ جِدًّا بِذَهَابِهِ وَرَاءَ ٱلْأَصْنَامِ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا فَعَلَ ٱلْأَمُورِيُّونَ ٱلَّذِينَ طَرَدَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.

And he acted abominably exceedingly by walking after the idols according to all that they had done the Amorite[s] whom he dispossessed Yahweh from before [the] people of Israel.

٢٧ 27 وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَخْآبُ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ، شَقَّ ثِيَابَهُ وَجَعَلَ مِسْحًا عَلَى جَسَدِهِ، وَصَامَ وَٱضْطَجَعَ بِٱلْمِسْحِ وَمَشَى بِسُكُوتٍ.

And it was when heard Ahab the words these and he tore clothes his and he put sackcloth on body his and he fasted and he lay down in the sackcloth and he went about dejectedly.

٢٨ 28 فَكَانَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى إِيلِيَّا ٱلتِّشْبِيِّ قَائِلًا:

And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Elijah the Tishbite saying.

٢٩ 29 «هَلْ رَأَيْتَ كَيْفَ ٱتَّضَعَ أَخْآبُ أَمَامِي؟ فَمِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱتَّضَعَ أَمَامِي لَا أَجْلِبُ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي أَيَّامِهِ، بَلْ فِي أَيَّامِ ٱبْنِهِ أَجْلِبُ ٱلشَّرَّ عَلَى بَيْتِهِ».

¿ Have you seen that he has humbled himself Ahab from to before me because for he has humbled himself from before me not (I will bring *Q(k)*) evil in days his in [the] days of son his I will bring evil on house his.
