اَلتَّثْنِيَة 7
| «مَتَى أَتَى بِكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا لِتَمْتَلِكَهَا، وَطَرَدَ شُعُوبًا كَثِيرَةً مِنْ أَمَامِكَ: ٱلْحِثِّيِّينَ وَٱلْجِرْجَاشِيِّينَ وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ وَٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْفِرِزِّيِّينَ وَٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيِّينَ، سَبْعَ شُعُوبٍ أَكْثَرَ وَأَعْظَمَ مِنْكَ، | ١ 1 |
When the LORD your God brings you into the land where you go to possess it, and casts out many nations before you—the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite—seven nations greater and mightier than you;
| وَدَفَعَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ أَمَامَكَ، وَضَرَبْتَهُمْ، فَإِنَّكَ تُحَرِّمُهُمْ. لَا تَقْطَعْ لَهُمْ عَهْدًا، وَلَا تُشْفِقْ عَلَيْهِمْ، | ٢ 2 |
and when the LORD your God delivers them up before you, and you strike them, then you shall utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them.
| وَلَا تُصَاهِرْهُمْ. بِنْتَكَ لَا تُعْطِ لِٱبْنِهِ، وَبِنْتَهُ لَا تَأْخُذْ لِٱبْنِكَ. | ٣ 3 |
You shall not make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son.
| لِأَنَّهُ يَرُدُّ ٱبْنَكَ مِنْ وَرَائِي فَيَعْبُدُ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، فَيَحْمَى غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْكُمْ وَيُهْلِكُكُمْ سَرِيعًا. | ٤ 4 |
For that would turn away your sons from following me, that they may serve other gods. So the LORD’s anger would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.
| وَلَكِنْ هَكَذَا تَفْعَلُونَ بِهِمْ: تَهْدِمُونَ مَذَابِحَهُمْ، وَتُكَسِّرُونَ أَنْصَابَهُمْ، وَتُقَطِّعُونَ سَوَارِيَهُمْ، وَتُحْرِقُونَ تَمَاثِيلَهُمْ بِٱلنَّارِ. | ٥ 5 |
But you shall deal with them like this: you shall break down their altars, dash their pillars in pieces, cut down their Asherah poles, and burn their engraved images with fire.
| لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ شَعْبٌ مُقَدَّسٌ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. إِيَّاكَ قَدِ ٱخْتَارَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِتَكُونَ لَهُ شَعْبًا أَخَصَّ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، | ٦ 6 |
For you are a holy people to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
| لَيْسَ مِنْ كَوْنِكُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ سَائِرِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، ٱلْتَصَقَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِكُمْ وَٱخْتَارَكُمْ، لِأَنَّكُمْ أَقَلُّ مِنْ سَائِرِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. | ٧ 7 |
The LORD didn’t set his love on you nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all peoples;
| بَلْ مِنْ مَحَبَّةِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِيَّاكُمْ، وَحِفْظِهِ ٱلْقَسَمَ ٱلَّذِي أَقْسَمَ لِآبَائِكُمْ، أَخْرَجَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ بِيَدٍ شَدِيدَةٍ وَفَدَاكُمْ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ مِنْ يَدِ فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ. | ٨ 8 |
but because the LORD loves you, and because he desires to keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
| فَٱعْلَمْ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ هُوَ ٱللهُ، ٱلْإِلَهُ ٱلْأَمِينُ، ٱلْحَافِظُ ٱلْعَهْدَ وَٱلْإِحْسَانَ لِلَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَهُ وَيَحْفَظُونَ وَصَايَاهُ إِلَى أَلْفِ جِيلٍ، | ٩ 9 |
Know therefore that the LORD your God himself is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness to a thousand generations with those who love him and keep his commandments,
| وَٱلْمُجَازِي ٱلَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَهُ بِوُجُوهِهِمْ لِيُهْلِكَهُمْ. لَا يُمْهِلُ مَنْ يُبْغِضُهُ. بِوَجْهِهِ يُجَازِيهِ. | ١٠ 10 |
and repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack to him who hates him. He will repay him to his face.
| فَٱحْفَظِ ٱلْوَصَايَا وَٱلْفَرَائِضَ وَٱلْأَحْكَامَ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ لِتَعْمَلَهَا. | ١١ 11 |
You shall therefore keep the commandments, the statutes, and the ordinances which I command you today, to do them.
| «وَمِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ تَسْمَعُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَحْكَامَ وَتَحْفَظُونَ وَتَعْمَلُونَهَا، يَحْفَظُ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ ٱلْعَهْدَ وَٱلْإِحْسَانَ ٱللَّذَيْنِ أَقْسَمَ لِآبَائِكَ، | ١٢ 12 |
It shall happen, because you listen to these ordinances and keep and do them, that the LORD your God will keep with you the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to your fathers.
| وَيُحِبُّكَ وَيُبَارِكُكَ وَيُكَثِّرُكَ وَيُبَارِكُ ثَمَرَةَ بَطْنِكَ وَثَمَرَةَ أَرْضِكَ: قَمْحَكَ وَخَمْرَكَ وَزَيْتَكَ وَنِتَاجَ بَقَرِكَ وَإِنَاثَ غَنَمِكَ، عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَقْسَمَ لِآبَائِكَ أَنَّهُ يُعْطِيكَ إِيَّاهَا. | ١٣ 13 |
He will love you, bless you, and multiply you. He will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your livestock and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.
| مُبَارَكًا تَكُونُ فَوْقَ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. لَا يَكُونُ عَقِيمٌ وَلَا عَاقِرٌ فِيكَ وَلَا فِي بَهَائِمِكَ. | ١٤ 14 |
You will be blessed above all peoples. There won’t be male or female barren among you, or among your livestock.
| وَيَرُدُّ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْكَ كُلَّ مَرَضٍ، وَكُلَّ أَدْوَاءِ مِصْرَ ٱلرَّدِيئَةِ ٱلَّتِي عَرَفْتَهَا لَا يَضَعُهَا عَلَيْكَ، بَلْ يَجْعَلُهَا عَلَى كُلِّ مُبْغِضِيكَ. | ١٥ 15 |
The LORD will take away from you all sickness; and he will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you know, on you, but will lay them on all those who hate you.
| وَتَأْكُلُ كُلَّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ يَدْفَعُ إِلَيْكَ. لَا تُشْفِقْ عَيْنَاكَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا تَعْبُدْ آلِهَتَهُمْ، لِأَنَّ ذَلِكَ شَرَكٌ لَكَ. | ١٦ 16 |
You shall consume all the peoples whom the LORD your God shall deliver to you. Your eye shall not pity them. You shall not serve their gods; for that would be a snare to you.
| إِنْ قُلْتَ فِي قَلْبِكَ: هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلشُّعُوبُ أَكْثَرُ مِنِّي. كَيْفَ أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَطْرُدَهُمْ؟ | ١٧ 17 |
If you shall say in your heart, “These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?”
| فَلَا تَخَفْ مِنْهُمُ. ٱذْكُرْ مَا فَعَلَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ بِفِرْعَوْنَ وَبِجَمِيعِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ. | ١٨ 18 |
you shall not be afraid of them. You shall remember well what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt:
| ٱلتَّجَارِبَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَبْصَرَتْهَا عَيْنَاكَ، وَٱلْآيَاتِ وَٱلْعَجَائِبَ وَٱلْيَدَ ٱلشَّدِيدَةَ وَٱلذِّرَاعَ ٱلرَّفِيعَةَ ٱلَّتِي بِهَا أَخْرَجَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. هَكَذَا يَفْعَلُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ بِجَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ خَائِفٌ مِنْ وَجْهِهَا. | ١٩ 19 |
the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the LORD your God brought you out. So shall the LORD your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
| «وَٱلزَّنَابِيرُ أَيْضًا يُرْسِلُهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَتَّى يَفْنَى ٱلْبَاقُونَ وَٱلْمُخْتَفُونَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Moreover the LORD your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves, perish from before you.
| لَا تَرْهَبْ وُجُوهَهُمْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ فِي وَسَطِكَ إِلَهٌ عَظِيمٌ وَمَخُوفٌ. | ٢١ 21 |
You shall not be scared of them; for the LORD your God is among you, a great and awesome God.
| وَلَكِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ يَطْرُدُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلشُّعُوبَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ قَلِيلًا قَلِيلًا. لَا تَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ تُفْنِيَهُمْ سَرِيعًا، لِئَلَّا تَكْثُرَ عَلَيْكَ وُحُوشُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
The LORD your God will cast out those nations before you little by little. You may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.
| وَيَدْفَعُهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ أَمَامَكَ وَيُوقِعُ بِهِمِ ٱضْطِرَابًا عَظِيمًا حَتَّى يَفْنَوْا. | ٢٣ 23 |
But the LORD your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they are destroyed.
| وَيَدْفَعُ مُلُوكَهُمْ إِلَى يَدِكَ، فَتَمْحُو ٱسْمَهُمْ مِنْ تَحْتِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. لَا يَقِفُ إِنْسَانٌ فِي وَجْهِكَ حَتَّى تُفْنِيَهُمْ. | ٢٤ 24 |
He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name perish from under the sky. No one will be able to stand before you until you have destroyed them.
| وَتَمَاثِيلَ آلِهَتِهِمْ تُحْرِقُونَ بِٱلنَّارِ. لَا تَشْتَهِ فِضَّةً وَلَا ذَهَبًا مِمَّا عَلَيْهَا لِتَأْخُذَ لَكَ، لِئَلَّا تُصَادَ بِهِ لِأَنَّهُ رِجْسٌ عِنْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
You shall burn the engraved images of their gods with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to the LORD your God.
| وَلَا تُدْخِلْ رِجْسًا إِلَى بَيْتِكَ لِئَلَّا تَكُونَ مُحَرَّمًا مِثْلَهُ. تَسْتَقْبِحُهُ وَتَكْرَهُهُ لِأَنَّهُ مُحَرَّمٌ. | ٢٦ 26 |
You shall not bring an abomination into your house and become a devoted thing like it. You shall utterly detest it. You shall utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.
