اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلثَّانِي 1
| وَعَصَى مُوآبُ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ أَخْآبَ. | ١ 1 |
Then, after the death of Ahab, Moab transgressed 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 |
And Ahaziah fell down through the lattices of his upper room, which he had in Samaria, and he was injured. And he sent messengers, saying to them, “Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, as to whether I may be able to survive this infirmity of mine.”
| 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 |
And an Angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah, the Tishbite, saying: “Rise up, and ascend to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria. And you shall say to them: ‘Is there not a God in Israel, so that you would go to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron?
| فَلِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنَّ ٱلسَّرِيرَ ٱلَّذِي صَعِدْتَ عَلَيْهِ لَا تَنْزِلُ عَنْهُ بَلْ مَوْتًا تَمُوتُ». فَٱنْطَلَقَ إِيلِيَّا. | ٤ 4 |
For this reason, thus says the Lord: From the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.’” And Elijah went away.
| وَرَجَعَ ٱلرُّسُلُ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِمَاذَا رَجَعْتُمْ؟» | ٥ 5 |
And the messengers returned to Ahaziah. And he said to 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 |
But they responded to him: “A man met us, and he said to us: ‘Go, and return to the king who sent you. And you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel that you are sending to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore, from the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.’”
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «مَا هِيَ هَيْئَةُ ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِي صَعِدَ لِلِقَائِكُمْ وَكَلَّمَكُمْ بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ؟» | ٧ 7 |
And he said to them: “What was the appearance and dress of that man, who met you and who spoke these words?”
| فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «إِنَّهُ رَجُلٌ أَشْعَرُ مُتَنَطِّقٌ بِمِنْطَقَةٍ مِنْ جِلْدٍ عَلَى حُقَوَيْهِ». فَقَالَ: «هُوَ إِيلِيَّا ٱلتِّشْبِيُّ». | ٨ 8 |
So they said, “A hairy man, with a belt of leather wrapping his waist.” And he said, “It is Elijah, the Tishbite.”
| 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 |
And he sent to him a leader of fifty, with the fifty who were under him. And he ascended to him, sitting at the top of a hill, and he said, “Man of God, the king commanded that you should descend.”
| 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 |
And responding, Elijah said to the leader of fifty, “If I am a man of God, let fire from heaven descend and devour you and your fifty.” And then fire from heaven descended and devoured him and the fifty who were with him.
| ثُمَّ عَادَ وَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ رَئِيسَ خَمْسِينَ آخَرَ وَٱلْخَمْسِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُ. فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَارَجُلَ ٱللهِ، هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلْمَلِكُ: أَسْرِعْ وَٱنْزِلْ». | ١١ 11 |
And again, he sent to him another leader of fifty, and the fifty with him. And he said to him, “Man of God, thus says the king: Hurry, descend.”
| 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 |
Responding, Elijah said, “If I am a man of God, let fire from heaven descend and devour you and your fifty.” And fire from heaven descended and devoured him and his fifty.
| 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 |
Again, he sent a third leader of fifty men and the fifty who were with him. And when he had arrived, he bent his knees before Elijah, and he pleaded with him, and said: “Man of God, do not choose to despise my life and the lives of your servants who are with me.
| هُوَذَا قَدْ نَزَلَتْ نَارٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَأَكَلَتْ رَئِيسَيِ ٱلْخَمْسِينَيْنِ ٱلْأَوَّلَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَيْهِمَا، وَٱلْآنَ فَلْتُكْرَمْ نَفْسِي فِي عَيْنَيْكَ». | ١٤ 14 |
Behold, fire from heaven descended and devoured the two previous leaders of fifty and the fifties who were with them. But now I beg you to take pity on my life.”
| فَقَالَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ لِإِيلِيَّا: «ٱنْزِلْ مَعَهُ. لَا تَخَفْ مِنْهُ». فَقَامَ وَنَزَلَ مَعَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Then the Angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah, saying, “Descend with him; fear not.” And so, he arose and descended 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 he said to him: “Thus says the Lord: Because you sent messengers to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, as if there were no God in Israel, from whom you would be able to seek a word, therefore, from the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall 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 |
And so he died, in accord with the word of the Lord, which Elijah spoke. And Jehoram, his brother, reigned in his place, in the second year of Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah. For he had no son.
| وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ أَخَزْيَا ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَ، أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
But the rest of the words of Ahaziah that he worked, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
