< صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 8 >
وَكَانَ لَمَّا شَاخَ صَمُوئِيلُ أَنَّهُ جَعَلَ بَنِيهِ قُضَاةً لِإِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١ 1 |
And it came to pass when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel.
وَكَانَ ٱسْمُ ٱبْنِهِ ٱلْبِكْرِ يُوئِيلَ، وَٱسْمُ ثَانِيهِ أَبِيَّا. كَانَا قَاضِيَيْنِ فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ٢ 2 |
And the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abijah; they judged in Beer-sheba.
وَلَمْ يَسْلُكِ ٱبْنَاهُ فِي طَرِيقِهِ، بَلْ مَالَا وَرَاءَ ٱلْمَكْسَبِ، وَأَخَذَا رَشْوَةً وَعَوَّجَا ٱلْقَضَاءَ. | ٣ 3 |
And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted justice.
فَٱجْتَمَعَ كُلُّ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَجَاءُوا إِلَى صَمُوئِيلَ إِلَى ٱلرَّامَةِ | ٤ 4 |
Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel to Ramah,
وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «هُوَذَا أَنْتَ قَدْ شِخْتَ، وَٱبْنَاكَ لَمْ يَسِيرَا فِي طَرِيقِكَ. فَٱلْآنَ ٱجْعَلْ لَنَا مَلِكًا يَقْضِي لَنَا كَسَائِرِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ». | ٥ 5 |
and said to him, Behold, thou art become old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now appoint us a king to judge us, like all the nations.
فَسَاءَ ٱلْأَمْرُ فِي عَيْنَيْ صَمُوئِيلَ إِذْ قَالُوا: «أَعْطِنَا مَلِكًا يَقْضِي لَنَا». وَصَلَّى صَمُوئِيلُ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٦ 6 |
And the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed to Jehovah.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِصَمُوئِيلَ: «ٱسْمَعْ لِصَوْتِ ٱلشَّعْبِ فِي كُلِّ مَا يَقُولُونَ لَكَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَرْفُضُوكَ أَنْتَ بَلْ إِيَّايَ رَفَضُوا حَتَّى لَا أَمْلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ. | ٧ 7 |
And Jehovah said to Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
حَسَبَ كُلِّ أَعْمَالِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلُوا مِنْ يَوْمِ أَصْعَدْتُهُمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ وَتَرَكُونِي وَعَبَدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، هَكَذَا هُمْ عَامِلُونَ بِكَ أَيْضًا. | ٨ 8 |
According to all the deeds that they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, in that they have forsaken me and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
فَٱلْآنَ ٱسْمَعْ لِصَوْتِهِمْ. وَلَكِنْ أَشْهِدَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ وَأَخْبِرْهُمْ بِقَضَاءِ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلَّذِي يَمْلِكُ عَلَيْهِمْ». | ٩ 9 |
And now hearken unto their voice; only, testify solemnly unto them, and declare unto them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
فَكَلَّمَ صَمُوئِيلُ ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلَّذِينَ طَلَبُوا مِنْهُ مَلِكًا بِجَمِيعِ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ، | ١٠ 10 |
And Samuel spoke all the words of Jehovah to the people that asked of him a king.
وَقَالَ: «هَذَا يَكُونُ قَضَاءُ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلَّذِي يَمْلِكُ عَلَيْكُمْ: يَأْخُذُ بَنِيكُمْ وَيَجْعَلُهُمْ لِنَفْسِهِ، لِمَرَاكِبِهِ وَفُرْسَانِهِ، فَيَرْكُضُونَ أَمَامَ مَرَاكِبِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: he will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, on his chariot and among his horsemen, and they shall run before his chariots;
وَيَجْعَلُ لِنَفْسِهِ رُؤَسَاءَ أُلُوفٍ وَرُؤَسَاءَ خَمَاسِينَ، فَيَحْرُثُونَ حَرَاثَتَهُ وَيَحْصُدُونَ حَصَادَهُ، وَيَعْمَلُونَ عُدَّةَ حَرْبِهِ وَأَدَوَاتِ مَرَاكِبِهِ. | ١٢ 12 |
and [he will take them] that he may appoint for himself captains over thousands, and captains over fifties, and that they may plough his ground, and reap his harvest, and make his instruments of war and instruments of his chariots.
وَيَأْخُذُ بَنَاتِكُمْ عَطَّارَاتٍ وَطَبَّاخَاتٍ وَخَبَّازَاتٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
And he will take your daughters for perfumers, and cooks, and bakers.
وَيَأْخُذُ حُقُولَكُمْ وَكُرُومَكُمْ وَزَيْتُونَكُمْ، أَجْوَدَهَا وَيُعْطِيهَا لِعَبِيدِهِ. | ١٤ 14 |
And your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, the best, will he take and give to his servants.
وَيُعَشِّرُ زُرُوعَكُمْ وَكُرُومَكُمْ، وَيُعْطِي لِخِصْيَانِهِ وَعَبِيدِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And he will take the tenth of your seed and of your vineyards, and give to his chamberlains and to his servants.
وَيَأْخُذُ عَبِيدَكُمْ وَجَوَارِيَكُمْ وَشُبَّانَكُمُ ٱلْحِسَانَ وَحَمِيرَكُمْ وَيَسْتَعْمِلُهُمْ لِشُغْلِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And he will take your bondmen, and your bondwomen, and your comeliest young men, and your asses, and use them for his work.
وَيُعَشِّرُ غَنَمَكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ تَكُونُونَ لَهُ عَبِيدًا. | ١٧ 17 |
He will take the tenth of your sheep. And ye shall be his servants.
فَتَصْرُخُونَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ مِنْ وَجْهِ مَلِكِكُمُ ٱلَّذِي ٱخْتَرْتُمُوهُ لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ، فَلَا يَسْتَجِيبُ لَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ». | ١٨ 18 |
And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king whom ye have chosen; and Jehovah will not answer you in that day.
فَأَبَى ٱلشَّعْبُ أَنْ يَسْمَعُوا لِصَوْتِ صَمُوئِيلَ، وَقَالُوا: «لَا بَلْ يَكُونُ عَلَيْنَا مَلِكٌ، | ١٩ 19 |
And the people refused to hearken to the voice of Samuel; and they said, No, but there shall be a king over us,
فَنَكُونُ نَحْنُ أَيْضًا مِثْلَ سَائِرِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَيَقْضِي لَنَا مَلِكُنَا وَيَخْرُجُ أَمَامَنَا وَيُحَارِبُ حُرُوبَنَا». | ٢٠ 20 |
that we also may be like all the nations; and our king shall judge us, and go out before us, and conduct our wars.
فَسَمِعَ صَمُوئِيلُ كُلَّ كَلَامِ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ فِي أُذُنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٢١ 21 |
And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he repeated them in the ears of Jehovah.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِصَمُوئِيلَ: «ٱسْمَعْ لِصَوْتِهِمْ وَمَلِّكْ عَلَيْهِمْ مَلِكًا». فَقَالَ صَمُوئِيلُ لِرِجَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «ٱذْهَبُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مَدِينَتِهِ». | ٢٢ 22 |
And Jehovah said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said to the men of Israel, Go ye every man to his city.
