اَلتَّثْنِيَة 19
| «مَتَى قَرَضَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ ٱلْأُمَمَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ يُعْطِيكَ أَرْضَهُمْ، وَوَرِثْتَهُمْ وَسَكَنْتَ مُدُنَهُمْ وَبُيُوتَهُمْ، | ١ 1 |
When the LORD your God has cut off the nations, whose land the LORD your God gives you, and you succeed them, and dwell in their cities, and in their houses;
| تَفْرِزُ لِنَفْسِكَ ثَلَاثَ مُدُنٍ فِي وَسَطِ أَرْضِكَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِتَمْتَلِكَهَا. | ٢ 2 |
You shall separate three cities for you in the midst of your land, which the LORD your God gives you to possess it.
| تُصْلِحُ ٱلطَّرِيقَ وَتُثَلِّثُ تُخُومَ أَرْضِكَ ٱلَّتِي يَقْسِمُ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، فَتَكُونُ لِكَيْ يَهْرُبَ إِلَيْهَا كُلُّ قَاتِلٍ. | ٣ 3 |
You shall prepare you a way, and divide the coasts of your land, which the LORD your God gives you to inherit, into three parts, that every slayer may flee thither.
| وَهَذَا هُوَ حُكْمُ ٱلْقَاتِلِ ٱلَّذِي يَهْرُبُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ فَيَحْيَا: مَنْ ضَرَبَ صَاحِبَهُ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَهُوَ غَيْرُ مُبْغِضٍ لَهُ مُنْذُ أَمْسِ وَمَا قَبْلَهُ. | ٤ 4 |
And this is the case of the slayer, which shall flee thither, that he may live: Whoso kills his neighbour ignorantly, whom he hated not in time past;
| وَمَنْ ذَهَبَ مَعَ صَاحِبِهِ فِي ٱلْوَعْرِ لِيَحْتَطِبَ حَطَبًا، فَٱنْدَفَعَتْ يَدُهُ بِٱلْفَأْسِ لِيَقْطَعَ ٱلْحَطَبَ، وَأَفْلَتَ ٱلْحَدِيدُ مِنَ ٱلْخَشَبِ وَأَصَابَ صَاحِبَهُ فَمَاتَ، فَهُوَ يَهْرُبُ إِلَى إِحْدَى تِلْكَ ٱلْمُدُنِ فَيَحْيَا. | ٥ 5 |
As when a man goes into the wood with his neighbour to hew wood, and his hand fetches a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the head slips from the wooden handle, and lights upon his neighbour, that he die; he shall flee unto one of those cities, and live:
| لِئَلَّا يَسْعَى وَلِيُّ ٱلدَّمِ وَرَاءَ ٱلْقَاتِلِ حِينَ يَحْمَى قَلْبُهُ، وَيُدْرِكَهُ إِذَا طَالَ ٱلطَّرِيقُ وَيَقْتُلَهُ، وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ حُكْمُ ٱلْمَوْتِ، لِأَنَّهُ غَيْرُ مُبْغِضٍ لَهُ مُنْذُ أَمْسِ وَمَا قَبْلَهُ. | ٦ 6 |
Lest the avenger of the blood pursue the slayer, while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and slay him; whereas he was not worthy of death, inasmuch as he hated him not in time past.
| لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَنَا آمُرُكَ قَائِلًا: ثَلَاثَ مُدُنٍ تَفْرِزُ لِنَفْسِكَ. | ٧ 7 |
Wherefore I command you, saying, You shall separate three cities for you.
| وَإِنْ وَسَّعَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ تُخُومَكَ كَمَا حَلَفَ لِآبَائِكَ، وَأَعْطَاكَ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي قَالَ إِنَّهُ يُعْطِي لِآبَائِكَ، | ٨ 8 |
And if the LORD your God enlarge your coast, as he has sworn unto your fathers, and give you all the land which he promised to give unto your fathers;
| إِذْ حَفِظْتَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْوَصَايَا لِتَعْمَلَهَا، كَمَا أَنَا أُوصِيكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ لِتُحِبَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ وَتَسْلُكَ فِي طُرُقِهِ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، فَزِدْ لِنَفْسِكَ أَيْضًا ثَلَاثَ مُدُنٍ عَلَى هَذِهِ ٱلثَّلَاثِ، | ٩ 9 |
If you shall keep all these commandments to do them, which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to walk ever in his ways; then shall you add three cities more for you, beside these three:
| حَتَّى لَا يُسْفَكَ دَمُ بَرِيءٍ فِي وَسَطِ أَرْضِكَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ نَصِيبًا، فَيَكُونَ عَلَيْكَ دَمٌ. | ١٠ 10 |
That innocent blood be not shed in your land, which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance, and so blood be upon you.
| «وَلَكِنْ إِذَا كَانَ إِنْسَانٌ مُبْغِضًا لِصَاحِبِهِ، فَكَمَنَ لَهُ وَقَامَ عَلَيْهِ وَضَرَبَهُ ضَرْبَةً قَاتِلَةً فَمَاتَ، ثُمَّ هَرَبَ إِلَى إِحْدَى تِلْكَ ٱلْمُدُنِ، | ١١ 11 |
But if any man hate his neighbour, and lie in wait for him, and rise up against him, and strike him mortally that he die, and flees into one of these cities:
| يُرْسِلُ شُيُوخُ مَدِينَتِهِ وَيَأْخُذُونَهُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ وَيَدْفَعُونَهُ إِلَى يَدِ وَلِيِّ ٱلدَّمِ فَيَمُوتُ. | ١٢ 12 |
Then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.
| لَا تُشْفِقْ عَيْنُكَ عَلَيْهِ. فَتَنْزِعَ دَمَ ٱلْبَرِيءِ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَيَكُونَ لَكَ خَيْرٌ. | ١٣ 13 |
your eye shall not pity him, but you shall put away the guilt of innocent blood from Israel, that it may go well with you.
| لَا تَنْقُلْ تُخْمَ صَاحِبِكَ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبَهُ ٱلْأَوَّلُونَ فِي نَصِيبِكَ ٱلَّذِي تَنَالُهُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِكَيْ تَمْتَلِكَهَا. | ١٤ 14 |
You shall not remove your neighbour's landmark, which they of old time have set in your inheritance, which you shall inherit in the land that the LORD your God gives you to possess it.
| «لَا يَقُومُ شَاهِدٌ وَاحِدٌ عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ فِي ذَنْبٍ مَّا أَوْ خَطِيَّةٍ مَّا مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْخَطَايَا ٱلَّتِي يُخْطِئُ بِهَا. عَلَى فَمِ شَاهِدَيْنِ أَوْ عَلَى فَمِ ثَلَاثَةِ شُهُودٍ يَقُومُ ٱلْأَمْرُ. | ١٥ 15 |
One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sins: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.
| إِذَا قَامَ شَاهِدُ زُورٍ عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ لِيَشْهَدَ عَلَيْهِ بِزَيْغٍ، | ١٦ 16 |
If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against him that which is wrong;
| يَقِفُ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ ٱللَّذَانِ بَيْنَهُمَا ٱلْخُصُومَةُ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، أَمَامَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلْقُضَاةِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَكُونُونَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges, which shall be in those days;
| فَإِنْ فَحَصَ ٱلْقُضَاةُ جَيِّدًا، وَإِذَا ٱلشَّاهِدُ شَاهِدٌ كَاذِبٌ، قَدْ شَهِدَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ عَلَى أَخِيهِ، | ١٨ 18 |
And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and has testified falsely against his brother;
| فَٱفْعَلُوا بِهِ كَمَا نَوَى أَنْ يَفْعَلَ بِأَخِيهِ. فَتَنْزِعُونَ ٱلشَّرَّ مِنْ وَسْطِكُمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
Then shall all of you do unto him, as he had thought to have done unto his brother: so shall you put the evil away from among you.
| وَيَسْمَعُ ٱلْبَاقُونَ فَيَخَافُونَ، وَلَا يَعُودُونَ يَفْعَلُونَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْأَمْرِ ٱلْخَبِيثِ فِي وَسَطِكَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And those which remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil among you.
| لَا تُشْفِقْ عَيْنُكَ. نَفْسٌ بِنَفْسٍ. عَيْنٌ بِعَيْنٍ. سِنٌّ بِسِنٍّ. يَدٌ بِيَدٍ. رِجْلٌ بِرِجْلٍ. | ٢١ 21 |
And your eye shall not pity; but life shall go for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
