< صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 5 >
فَأَخَذَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ تَابُوتَ ٱللهِ وَأتَوْا بِهِ مِنْ حَجَرِ ٱلْمَعُونَةِ إِلَى أَشْدُودَ. | ١ 1 |
And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Ebenezer to Ashdod.
وَأَخَذَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ تَابُوتَ ٱللهِ وَأَدْخَلُوهُ إِلَى بَيْتِ دَاجُونَ، وَأَقَامُوهُ بِقُرْبِ دَاجُونَ. | ٢ 2 |
When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
وَبَكَّرَ ٱلْأَشْدُودِيُّونَ فِي ٱلْغَدِ وَإِذَا بِدَاجُونَ سَاقِطٌ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَمَامَ تَابُوتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَأَخَذُوا دَاجُونَ وَأَقَامُوهُ فِي مَكَانِهِ. | ٣ 3 |
And when they of Ashdod arose early on the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen upon his face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
وَبَكَّرُوا صَبَاحًا فِي ٱلْغَدِ وَإِذَا بِدَاجُونَ سَاقِطٌ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَمَامَ تَابُوتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَرَأْسُ دَاجُونَ وَيَدَاهُ مَقْطُوعَةٌ عَلَى ٱلْعَتَبَةِ. بَقِيَ بَدَنُ ٱلسَّمَكَةِ فَقَطْ. | ٤ 4 |
And when they arose early on the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left to him.
لِذَلِكَ لَا يَدُوسُ كَهَنَةُ دَاجُونَ وَجَمِيعُ ٱلدَّاخِلِينَ إِلَى بَيْتِ دَاجُونَ عَلَى عَتَبَةِ دَاجُونَ فِي أَشْدُودَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٥ 5 |
Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon’s house, tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.
فَثَقُلَتْ يَدُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى ٱلْأَشْدُودِيِّينَ، وَأَخْرَبَهُمْ وَضَرَبَهُمْ بِٱلْبَوَاسِيرِ فِي أَشْدُودَ وَتُخُومِهَا. | ٦ 6 |
But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he destroyed them, and smote them with haemorrhoids, even Ashdod and its land.
وَلَمَّا رَأَى أَهْلُ أَشْدُودَ ٱلْأَمْرَ كَذَلِكَ قَالُوا: «لَا يَمْكُثُ تَابُوتُ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ عِنْدَنَا لِأَنَّ يَدَهُ قَدْ قَسَتْ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى دَاجُونَ إِلَهِنَا». | ٧ 7 |
And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us: for his hand is heavy upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
فَأَرْسَلُوا وَجَمَعُوا جَمِيعَ أَقْطَابِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَقَالُوا: «مَاذَا نَصْنَعُ بِتَابُوتِ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟» فَقَالُوا: «لِيُنْقَلْ تَابُوتُ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى جَتَّ». فَنَقَلُوا تَابُوتَ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٨ 8 |
They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines to them, and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about to Gath. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel there.
وَكَانَ بَعْدَمَا نَقَلُوهُ أَنَّ يَدَ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانَتْ عَلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ بِٱضْطِرَابٍ عَظِيمٍ جِدًّا، وَضَرَبَ أَهْلَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ مِنَ ٱلصَّغِيرِ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِيرِ، وَنَفَرَتْ لَهُمُ ٱلْبَوَاسِيرُ. | ٩ 9 |
And it was so, that, after they had carried it there, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction: and he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and they had haemorrhoids in their secret parts.
فَأَرْسَلُوا تَابُوتَ ٱللهِ إِلَى عَقْرُونَ. وَكَانَ لَمَّا دَخَلَ تَابُوتُ ٱللهِ إِلَى عَقْرُونَ أَنَّهُ صَرَخَ ٱلْعَقْرُونِيُّونَ قَائِلِينَ: «قَدْ نَقَلُوا إِلَيْنَا تَابُوتَ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِكَيْ يُمِيتُونَا نَحْنُ وَشَعْبَنَا». | ١٠ 10 |
Therefore they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass, as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to slay us and our people.
وَأَرْسَلُوا وَجَمَعُوا كُلَّ أَقْطَابِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَقَالُوا: «أَرْسِلُوا تَابُوتَ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَيَرْجِعَ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ وَلَا يُمِيتَنَا نَحْنُ وَشَعْبَنَا». لِأَنَّ ٱضْطِرَابَ ٱلْمَوْتِ كَانَ فِي كُلِّ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. يَدُ ٱللهِ كَانَتْ ثَقِيلَةً جِدًّا هُنَاكَ. | ١١ 11 |
So they sent and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to its own place, that it slay us not, and our people: for there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.
وَٱلنَّاسُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يَمُوتُوا ضُرِبُوا بِٱلْبَوَاسِيرِ، فَصَعِدَ صُرَاخُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ. | ١٢ 12 |
And the men that died not were smitten with the haemorrhoids: and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
