وَكَانَ رُوحُ ٱللهِ عَلَى عَزَرْيَا بْنِ عُودِيدَ، | ١ 1 |
And the Spirit of God came on Azariah the son of Oded:
فَخَرَجَ لِلِقَاءِ آسَا وَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱسْمَعُوا لِي يَا آسَا وَجَمِيعَ يَهُوذَا وَبَنْيَامِينَ. ٱلرَّبُّ مَعَكُمْ مَا كُنْتُمْ مَعَهُ، وَإِنْ طَلَبْتُمُوهُ يُوجَدْ لَكُمْ، وَإِنْ تَرَكْتُمُوهُ يَتْرُكْكُمْ. | ٢ 2 |
And he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, Hear you me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; The LORD is with you, while you be with him; and if you seek him, he will be found of you; but if you forsake him, he will forsake you.
وَلِإِسْرَائِيلَ أَيَّامٌ كَثِيرَةٌ بِلَا إِلَهٍ حَقٍّ وَبِلَا كَاهِنٍ مُعَلِّمٍ وَبِلَا شَرِيعَةٍ. | ٣ 3 |
Now for a long season Israel has been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
وَلَكِنْ لَمَّا رَجَعُوا عِنْدَمَا تَضَايَقُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَطَلَبُوهُ وُجِدَ لَهُمْ. | ٤ 4 |
But when they in their trouble did turn to the LORD God of Israel, and sought him, he was found of them.
وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَزْمَانِ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَمَانٌ لِلْخَارِجِ وَلَا لِلدَّاخِلِ، لِأَنَّ ٱضْطِرَابَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً كَانَتْ عَلَى كُلِّ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي. | ٥ 5 |
And in those times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great vexations were on all the inhabitants of the countries.
فَأُفْنِيَتْ أُمَّةٌ بِأُمَّةٍ وَمَدِينَةٌ بِمَدِينَةٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ أَزْعَجَهُمْ بِكُلِّ ضِيقٍ. | ٦ 6 |
And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.
فَتَشَدَّدُوا أَنْتُمْ وَلَا تَرْتَخِ أَيْدِيكُمْ لِأَنَّ لِعَمَلِكُمْ أَجْرًا». | ٧ 7 |
Be you strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ آسَا هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ وَنُبُوَّةَ عُودِيدَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ، تَشَدَّدَ وَنَزَعَ ٱلرَّجَاسَاتِ مِنْ كُلِّ أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا وَبَنْيَامِينَ وَمِنَ ٱلْمُدُنِ ٱلَّتِي أَخَذَهَا مِنْ جَبَلِ أَفْرَايِمَ، وَجَدَّدَ مَذْبَحَ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي أَمَامَ رِوَاقِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٨ 8 |
And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of the LORD, that was before the porch of the LORD.
وَجَمَعَ كُلَّ يَهُوذَا وَبَنْيَامِينَ وَٱلْغُرَبَاءَ مَعَهُمْ مِنْ أَفْرَايِمَ وَمَنَسَّى وَمِنْ شِمْعُونَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ سَقَطُوا إِلَيْهِ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِكَثْرَةٍ حِينَ رَأَوْا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَهُ مَعَهُ. | ٩ 9 |
And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.
فَٱجْتَمَعُوا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّالِثِ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْخَامِسَةَ عَشَرَةَ لِمُلْكِ آسَا، | ١٠ 10 |
So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
وَذَبَحُوا لِلرَّبِّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ مِنَ ٱلْغَنِيمَةِ ٱلَّتِي جَلَبُوا سَبْعَ مِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْبَقَرِ، وَسَبْعَةَ آلَافٍ مِنَ ٱلضَّأْنِ. | ١١ 11 |
And they offered to the LORD the same time, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
وَدَخَلُوا فِي عَهْدٍ أَنْ يَطْلُبُوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ آبَائِهِمْ بِكُلِّ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَكُلِّ أَنْفُسِهِمْ. | ١٢ 12 |
And they entered into a covenant to seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
حَتَّى إِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ لَا يَطْلُبُ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُقْتَلُ مِنَ ٱلصَّغِيرِ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِيرِ، مِنَ ٱلرِّجَالِ وَٱلنِّسَاءِ. | ١٣ 13 |
That whoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
وَحَلَفُوا لِلرَّبِّ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ وَهُتَافٍ وَبِأَبْوَاقٍ وَقُرُونٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
And they swore to the LORD with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
وَفَرِحَ كُلُّ يَهُوذَا مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْحَلْفِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ حَلَفُوا بِكُلِّ قُلُوبِهِمْ، وَطَلَبُوهُ بِكُلِّ رِضَاهُمْ فَوُجِدَ لَهُمْ، وَأَرَاحَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ. | ١٥ 15 |
And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about.
حَتَّى إِنَّ مَعْكَةَ أُمَّ آسَا ٱلْمَلِكِ خَلَعَهَا مِنْ أَنْ تَكُونَ مَلِكَةً لِأَنَّهَا عَمِلَتْ لِسَارِيَةٍ تِمْثَالًا، وَقَطَعَ آسَا تِمْثَالَهَا وَدَقَّهُ وَأَحْرَقَهُ فِي وَادِي قَدْرُونَ. | ١٦ 16 |
And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he removed her from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove: and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.
وَأَمَّا ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتُ فَلَمْ تُنْزَعْ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. إِلَّا أَنَّ قَلْبَ آسَا كَانَ كَامِلًا كُلَّ أَيَّامِهِ. | ١٧ 17 |
But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
وَأَدْخَلَ أَقْدَاسَ أَبِيهِ وَأَقْدَاسَهُ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱللهِ مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْآنِيَةِ. | ١٨ 18 |
And he brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
وَلَمْ تَكُنْ حَرْبٌ إِلَى ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْخَامِسَةِ وَٱلثَّلَاثِينَ لِمُلْكِ آسَا. | ١٩ 19 |
And there was no more war to the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
