اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلثَّانِي 2
| وَكَانَ عِنْدَ إِصْعَادِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِيلِيَّا فِي ٱلْعَاصِفَةِ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ، أَنَّ إِيلِيَّا وَأَلِيشَعَ ذَهَبَا مِنَ ٱلْجِلْجَالِ. | ١ 1 |
And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah by a whirlwind into heaven, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
| فَقَالَ إِيلِيَّا لِأَلِيشَعَ: «ٱمْكُثْ هُنَا لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى بَيْتِ إِيلَ». فَقَالَ أَلِيشَعُ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَحَيَّةٌ هِيَ نَفْسُكَ، إِنِّي لَا أَتْرُكُكَ». وَنَزَلَا إِلَى بَيْتِ إِيلَ. | ٢ 2 |
And Elijah said unto Elisha: 'Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me as far as Beth-el.' And Elisha said: 'As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee.' So they went down to Beth-el. —
| فَخَرَجَ بَنُو ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي بَيْتِ إِيلَ إِلَى أَلِيشَعَ وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «أَتَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ يَأْخُذُ ٱلرَّبُّ سَيِّدَكَ مِنْ عَلَى رَأْسِكَ؟» فَقَالَ: «نَعَمْ، إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ فَٱصْمُتُوا». | ٣ 3 |
And the sons of the prophets that were at Beth-el came forth to Elisha, and said unto him: 'Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to-day?' And he said: 'Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.' —
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ إِيلِيَّا: «يَا أَلِيشَعُ، ٱمْكُثْ هُنَا لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى أَرِيحَا». فَقَالَ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَحَيَّةٌ هِيَ نَفْسُكَ، إِنِّي لَا أَتْرُكُكَ». وَأَتَيَا إِلَى أَرِيحَا. | ٤ 4 |
And Elijah said unto him: 'Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Jericho.' And he said: 'As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee.' So they came to Jericho. —
| فَتَقَدَّمَ بَنُو ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي أَرِيحَا إِلَى أَلِيشَعَ وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «أَتَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ يَأْخُذُ ٱلرَّبُّ سَيِّدَكَ مِنْ عَلَى رَأْسِكَ؟» فَقَالَ: «نَعَمْ، إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ فَٱصْمُتُوا». | ٥ 5 |
And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came near to Elisha, and said unto him: 'Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to-day?' And he answered: 'Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.' —
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ إِيلِيَّا: «أُمْكُثْ هُنَا لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ». فَقَالَ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَحَيَّةٌ هِيَ نَفْسُكَ، إِنِّي لَا أَتْرُكُكَ». وَٱنْطَلَقَا كِلَاهُمَا. | ٦ 6 |
And Elijah said unto him: 'Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to the Jordan.' And he said: 'As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee.' And they two went on.
| فَذَهَبَ خَمْسُونَ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَوَقَفُوا قُبَالَتَهُمَا مِنْ بَعِيدٍ. وَوَقَفَ كِلَاهُمَا بِجَانِبِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ٧ 7 |
And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood over against them afar off; and they two stood by the Jordan.
| وَأَخَذَ إِيلِيَّا رِدَاءَهُ وَلَفَّهُ وَضَرَبَ ٱلْمَاءَ، فَٱنْفَلَقَ إِلَى هُنَا وَهُنَاكَ، فَعَبَرَا كِلَاهُمَا فِي ٱلْيَبَسِ. | ٨ 8 |
And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
| وَلَمَّا عَبَرَا قَالَ إِيلِيَّا لِأَلِيشَعَ: «ٱطْلُبْ: مَاذَا أَفْعَلُ لَكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ أُوخَذَ مِنْكَ؟». فَقَالَ أَلِيشَعُ: «لِيَكُنْ نَصِيبُ ٱثْنَيْنِ مِنْ رُوحِكَ عَلَيَّ». | ٩ 9 |
And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha: 'Ask what I shall do for thee, before I am taken from thee.' And Elisha said: 'I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.'
| فَقَالَ: «صَعَّبْتَ ٱلسُّؤَالَ. فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَنِي أُوخَذُ مِنْكَ يَكُونُ لَكَ كَذَلِكَ، وَإِلَّا فَلَا يَكُونُ». | ١٠ 10 |
And he said: 'Thou hast asked a hard thing; nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.'
| وَفِيمَا هُمَا يَسِيرَانِ وَيَتَكَلَّمَانِ إِذَا مَرْكَبَةٌ مِنْ نَارٍ وَخَيْلٌ مِنْ نَارٍ فَفَصَلَتْ بَيْنَهُمَا، فَصَعِدَ إِيلِيَّا فِي ٱلْعَاصِفَةِ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ. | ١١ 11 |
And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, which parted them both assunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
| وَكَانَ أَلِيشَعُ يَرَى وَهُوَ يَصْرُخُ: «يَا أَبِي، يَا أَبِي، مَرْكَبَةَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفُرْسَانَهَا». وَلَمْ يَرَهُ بَعْدُ، فَأَمْسَكَ ثِيَابَهُ وَمَزَّقَهَا قِطْعَتَيْنِ، | ١٢ 12 |
And Elisha saw it, and he cried: 'My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof!' And he saw him no more; and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
| وَرَفَعَ رِدَاءَ إِيلِيَّا ٱلَّذِي سَقَطَ عَنْهُ، وَرَجَعَ وَوَقَفَ عَلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ١٣ 13 |
He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of the Jordan.
| فَأَخَذَ رِدَاءَ إِيلِيَّا ٱلَّذِي سَقَطَ عَنْهُ وَضَرَبَ ٱلْمَاءَ وَقَالَ: «أَيْنَ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِيلِيَّا؟» ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ ٱلْمَاءَ أَيْضًا فَٱنْفَلَقَ إِلَى هُنَا وَهُنَاكَ، فَعَبَرَ أَلِيشَعُ. | ١٤ 14 |
And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said: 'Where is the LORD, the God of Elijah?' and when he also had smitten the waters, they were divided hither and thither; and Elisha went over.
| وَلَمَّا رَآهُ بَنُو ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي أَرِيحَا قُبَالَتَهُ قَالُوا: «قَدِ ٱسْتَقَرَّتْ رُوحُ إِيلِيَّا عَلَى أَلِيشَعَ». فَجَاءُوا لِلِقَائِهِ وَسَجَدُوا لَهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And when the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho some way off saw him, they said: 'The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha.' And they came to meet him, and bowed down to the ground before him.
| وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «هُوَذَا مَعَ عَبِيدِكَ خَمْسُونَ رَجُلًا ذَوُو بَأْسٍ، فَدَعْهُمْ يَذْهَبُونَ وَيُفَتِّشُونَ عَلَى سَيِّدِكَ، لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ قَدْ حَمَلَهُ رُوحُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَطَرَحَهُ عَلَى أَحَدِ ٱلْجِبَالِ، أَوْ فِي أَحَدِ ٱلْأَوْدِيَةِ». فَقَالَ: «لَاتُرْسِلُوا». | ١٦ 16 |
And they said unto him: 'Behold now, there are with thy servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master; lest peradventure the spirit of the LORD hath taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley.' And he said: 'Ye shall not send.'
| فَأَلَحُّوا عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى خَجِلَ وَقَالَ: «أَرْسِلُوا». فَأَرْسَلُوا خَمْسِينَ رَجُلًا، فَفَتَّشُوا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَمْ يَجِدُوهُ. | ١٧ 17 |
And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said: 'Send.' They sent therefore fifty men; and they sought three days, but found him not.
| وَلَمَّا رَجَعُوا إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ مَاكِثٌ فِي أَرِيحَا قَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَمَا قُلْتُ لَكُمْ لَا تَذْهَبُوا؟». | ١٨ 18 |
And they came back to him, while he tarried at Jericho; and he said unto them: 'Did I not say unto you: Go not?'
| وَقَالَ رِجَالُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لِأَلِيشَعَ: «هُوَذَا مَوْقِعُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ حَسَنٌ كَمَا يَرَى سَيِّدِي، وَأَمَّا ٱلْمِيَاهُ فَرَدِيَّةٌ وَٱلْأَرْضُ مُجْدِبَةٌ». | ١٩ 19 |
And the men of the city said unto Elisha: 'Behold, we pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth; but the water is bad, and the land miscarrieth.
| فَقَالَ: «ٱئْتُونِي بِصَحْنٍ جَدِيدٍ، وَضَعُوا فِيهِ مِلْحًا». فَأَتَوْهُ بِهِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And he said: 'Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein.' And they brought it to him.
| فَخَرَجَ إِلَى نَبْعِ ٱلْمَاءِ وَطَرَحَ فِيهِ ٱلْمِلْحَ وَقَالَ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: قَدْ أَبْرَأْتُ هَذِهِ ٱلْمِيَاهَ. لَا يَكُونُ فِيهَا أَيْضًا مَوْتٌ وَلَا جَدْبٌ». | ٢١ 21 |
And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast salt therein, and said: 'Thus saith the LORD: I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or miscarrying.'
| فَبَرِئَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، حَسَبَ قَوْلِ أَلِيشَعَ ٱلَّذِي نَطَقَ بِهِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the word of Elisha which he spoke.
| ثُمَّ صَعِدَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى بَيْتِ إِيلَ. وَفِيمَا هُوَ صَاعِدٌ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ إِذَا بِصِبْيَانٍ صِغَارٍ خَرَجُوا مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَسَخِرُوا مِنْهُ وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «ٱصْعَدْ يَا أَقْرَعُ! ٱصْعَدْ يَا أَقْرَعُ!». | ٢٣ 23 |
And he went up from thence unto Beth-el; and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him: 'Go up, thou baldhead; go up, thou baldhead.'
| فَٱلْتَفَتَ إِلَى وَرَائِهِ وَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَعَنَهُمْ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَخَرَجَتْ دُبَّتَانِ مِنَ ٱلْوَعْرِ وَٱفْتَرَسَتَا مِنْهُمُ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَأَرْبَعِينَ وَلَدًا. | ٢٤ 24 |
And he looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tore forty and two children of them.
| وَذَهَبَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى جَبَلِ ٱلْكَرْمَلِ، وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ رَجَعَ إِلَى ٱلسَّامِرَةِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
