< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلثَّانِي 1 >
وَعَصَى مُوآبُ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ أَخْآبَ. | ١ 1 |
After the death of Ahab, Moab rebelled against Israel.
وَسَقَطَ أَخَزْيَا مِنَ ٱلْكَوَّةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي عُلِّيَّتِهِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ فَمَرِضَ، وَأَرْسَلَ رُسُلًا وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱذْهَبُوا ٱسْأَلُوا بَعْلَ زَبُوبَ إِلَهَ عَقْرُونَ إِنْ كُنْتُ أَبْرَأُ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْمَرَضِ». | ٢ 2 |
Now Ahaziah had fallen through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria and injured himself. So he sent messengers and instructed them: “Go inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will recover from this injury.”
فَقَالَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ لِإِيلِيَّا ٱلتِّشْبِيِّ: «قُمِٱصْعَدْ لِلِقَاءِ رُسُلِ مَلِكِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: أَلَيْسَ لِأَنَّهُ لَا يُوجَدُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَهٌ، تَذْهَبُونَ لِتَسْأَلُوا بَعْلَ زَبُوبَ إِلَهَ عَقْرُونَ؟ | ٣ 3 |
But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, “Go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria and ask them, ‘Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are on your way to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?’
فَلِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنَّ ٱلسَّرِيرَ ٱلَّذِي صَعِدْتَ عَلَيْهِ لَا تَنْزِلُ عَنْهُ بَلْ مَوْتًا تَمُوتُ». فَٱنْطَلَقَ إِيلِيَّا. | ٤ 4 |
Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘You will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.’” So Elijah departed.
وَرَجَعَ ٱلرُّسُلُ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِمَاذَا رَجَعْتُمْ؟» | ٥ 5 |
When the messengers returned to the king, he asked them, “Why have you returned?”
فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «صَعِدَ رَجُلٌ لِلِقَائِنَا وَقَالَ لَنَا: ٱذْهَبُوا رَاجِعِينَ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَكُمْ وَقُولُوا لَهُ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَلَيْسَ لِأَنَّهُ لَا يُوجَدُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَهٌ أَرْسَلْتَ لِتَسْأَلَ بَعْلَ زَبُوبَ إِلَهَ عَقْرُونَ؟ لِذَلِكَ ٱلسَّرِيرُ ٱلَّذِي صَعِدْتَ عَلَيْهِ، لَا تَنْزِلُ عَنْهُ بَلْ مَوْتًا تَمُوتُ». | ٦ 6 |
They replied, “A man came up to meet us and said, ‘Go back to the king who sent you and tell him that this is what the LORD says: Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending these men to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.’”
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَا هِيَ هَيْئَةُ ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِي صَعِدَ لِلِقَائِكُمْ وَكَلَّمَكُمْ بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ؟» | ٧ 7 |
The king asked them, “What sort of man came up to meet you and spoke these words to you?”
فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «إِنَّهُ رَجُلٌ أَشْعَرُ مُتَنَطِّقٌ بِمِنْطَقَةٍ مِنْ جِلْدٍ عَلَى حُقَوَيْهِ». فَقَالَ: «هُوَ إِيلِيَّا ٱلتِّشْبِيُّ». | ٨ 8 |
“He was a hairy man,” they answered, “with a leather belt around his waist.” “It was Elijah the Tishbite,” said the king.
فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ رَئِيسَ خَمْسِينَ مَعَ ٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُ، فَصَعِدَ إِلَيْهِ وَإِذَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلْجَبَلِ. فَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا رَجُلَ ٱللهِ، ٱلْمَلِكُ يَقُولُ ٱنْزِلْ». | ٩ 9 |
Then King Ahaziah sent to Elijah a captain with his company of fifty men. So the captain went up to Elijah, who was sitting on top of a hill, and said to him, “Man of God, the king declares, ‘Come down!’”
فَأَجَابَ إِيلِيَّا وَقَالَ لِرَئِيسِ ٱلْخَمْسِينَ: «إِنْ كُنْتُ أَنَا رَجُلَ ٱللهِ، فَلْتَنْزِلْ نَارٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَتَأْكُلْكَ أَنْتَ وَٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَكَ». فَنَزَلَتْ نَارٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَأَكَلَتْهُ هُوَ وَٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
Elijah answered the captain, “If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” And fire came down from heaven and consumed the captain and his fifty men.
ثُمَّ عَادَ وَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ رَئِيسَ خَمْسِينَ آخَرَ وَٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُ. فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَارَجُلَ ٱللهِ، هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلْمَلِكُ: أَسْرِعْ وَٱنْزِلْ». | ١١ 11 |
So the king sent to Elijah another captain with his fifty men. And the captain said to Elijah, “Man of God, the king declares, ‘Come down at once!’”
فَأَجَابَ إِيلِيَّا وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنْ كُنْتُ أَنَا رَجُلَ ٱللهِ، فَلْتَنْزِلْ نَارٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَتَأْكُلْكَ أَنْتَ وَٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَكَ». فَنَزَلَتْ نَارُ ٱللهِ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَأَكَلَتْهُ هُوَ وَٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُ. | ١٢ 12 |
Again Elijah replied, “If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men.” And the fire of God came down from heaven and consumed the captain and his fifty men.
ثُمَّ عَادَ فَأَرْسَلَ رَئِيسَ خَمْسِينَ ثَالِثًا وَٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُ. فَصَعِدَ رَئِيسُ ٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلثَّالِثُ وَجَاءَ وَجَثَا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ أمَامَ إِيلِيَّا، وَتَضَرَّعَ إِلَيْهِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا رَجُلَ ٱللهِ، لِتُكْرَمْ نَفْسِي وَأَنْفُسُ عَبِيدِكَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْخَمْسِينَ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ. | ١٣ 13 |
So the king sent a third captain with his fifty men. And the third captain went up, fell on his knees before Elijah, and begged him, “Man of God, may my life and the lives of these fifty servants please be precious in your sight.
هُوَذَا قَدْ نَزَلَتْ نَارٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَأَكَلَتْ رَئِيسَيِ ٱلْخَمْسِينَيْنِ ٱلْأَوَّلَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَيْهِمَا، وَٱلْآنَ فَلْتُكْرَمْ نَفْسِي فِي عَيْنَيْكَ». | ١٤ 14 |
Behold, fire has come down from heaven and consumed the first two captains of fifty, with all their men. But now may my life be precious in your sight.”
فَقَالَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ لِإِيلِيَّا: «ٱنْزِلْ مَعَهُ. لَا تَخَفْ مِنْهُ». فَقَامَ وَنَزَلَ مَعَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Then the angel of the LORD said to Elijah, “Go down with him. Do not be afraid of him.” So Elijah got up and went down with him to the king.
وَقَالَ لَهُ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ أَرْسَلْتَ رُسُلًا لِتَسْأَلَ بَعْلَ زَبُوبَ إِلَهَ عَقْرُونَ، أَلَيْسَ لِأَنَّهُ لَا يُوجَدُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَهٌ لِتَسْأَلَ عَنْ كَلَامِهِ! لِذَلِكَ ٱلسَّرِيرُ ٱلَّذِي صَعِدْتَ عَلَيْهِ لَا تَنْزِلُ عَنْهُ بَلْ مَوْتًا تَمُوتُ». | ١٦ 16 |
And Elijah said to King Ahaziah, “This is what the LORD says: Is there really no God in Israel for you to inquire of His word? Is that why you have sent messengers to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will not get up from the bed on which you are lying. You will surely die.”
فَمَاتَ حَسَبَ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ إِيلِيَّا. وَمَلَكَ يَهُورَامُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ لِيَهُورَامَ بْنِ يَهُوشَافَاطَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ ٱبْنٌ. | ١٧ 17 |
So Ahaziah died according to the word of the LORD that Elijah had spoken. And since he had no son, Jehoram succeeded him in the second year of the reign of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat over Judah.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ أَخَزْيَا ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَ، أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
As for the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
