< اَلتَّثْنِيَة 8 >
«جَمِيعَ ٱلْوَصَايَا ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ تَحْفَظُونَ لِتَعْمَلُوهَا، لِكَيْ تَحَيَوْا وَتَكْثُرُوا وَتَدْخُلُوا وَتَمْتَلِكُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِآبَائِكُمْ. | ١ 1 |
All the commandment which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the LORD swore unto your fathers.
وَتَتَذَكَّرُ كُلَّ ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا سَارَ بِكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً فِي ٱلْقَفْرِ، لِكَيْ يُذِلَّكَ وَيُجَرِّبَكَ لِيَعْرِفَ مَا فِي قَلْبِكَ: أَتَحْفَظُ وَصَايَاهُ أَمْ لَا؟ | ٢ 2 |
And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God hath led thee these forty years in the wilderness, that He might afflict thee, to prove thee, to know what was in thy heart, whether thou wouldest keep His commandments, or no.
فَأَذَلَّكَ وَأَجَاعَكَ وَأَطْعَمَكَ ٱلْمَنَّ ٱلَّذِي لَمْ تَكُنْ تَعْرِفُهُ وَلَا عَرَفَهُ آبَاؤُكَ، لِكَيْ يُعَلِّمَكَ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِٱلْخُبْزِ وَحْدَهُ يَحْيَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ، بَلْ بِكُلِّ مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْ فَمِ ٱلرَّبِّ يَحْيَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ. | ٣ 3 |
And He afflicted thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that He might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every thing that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.
ثِيَابُكَ لَمْ تَبْلَ عَلَيْكَ، وَرِجْلُكَ لَمْ تَتَوَرَّمْ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. | ٤ 4 |
Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.
فَٱعْلَمْ فِي قَلْبِكَ أَنَّهُ كَمَا يُؤَدِّبُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱبْنَهُ قَدْ أَدَّبَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. | ٥ 5 |
And thou shalt consider in thy heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.
وَٱحْفَظْ وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ لِتَسْلُكَ فِي طُرُقِهِ وَتَتَّقِيَهُ، | ٦ 6 |
And thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, to walk in His ways, and to fear Him.
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ آتٍ بِكَ إِلَى أَرْضٍ جَيِّدَةٍ. أَرْضِ أَنْهَارٍ مِنْ عُيُونٍ، وَغِمَارٍ تَنْبَعُ فِي ٱلْبِقَاعِ وَٱلْجِبَالِ. | ٧ 7 |
For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths, springing forth in valleys and hills;
أَرْضِ حِنْطَةٍ وَشَعِيرٍ وَكَرْمٍ وَتِينٍ وَرُمَّانٍ. أَرْضِ زَيْتُونِ زَيْتٍ، وَعَسَلٍ. | ٨ 8 |
a land of wheat and barley, and vines and fig-trees and pomegranates; a land of olive-trees and honey;
أَرْضٍ لَيْسَ بِٱلْمَسْكَنَةِ تَأْكُلُ فِيهَا خُبْزًا، وَلَا يُعْوِزُكَ فِيهَا شَيْءٌ. أَرْضٍ حِجَارَتُهَا حَدِيدٌ، وَمِنْ جِبَالِهَا تَحْفُرُ نُحَاسًا. | ٩ 9 |
a land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass.
فَمَتَى أَكَلْتَ وَشَبِعْتَ تُبَارِكُ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ لِأَجْلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلْجَيِّدَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ. | ١٠ 10 |
And thou shalt eat and be satisfied, and bless the LORD thy God for the good land which He hath given thee.
اِحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تَنْسَى ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ وَلَا تَحْفَظَ وَصَايَاهُ وَأَحْكَامَهُ وَفَرَائِضَهُ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ. | ١١ 11 |
Beware lest thou forget the LORD thy God, in not keeping His commandments, and His ordinances, and His statutes, which I command thee this day;
لِئَلَّا إِذَا أَكَلْتَ وَشَبِعْتَ وَبَنَيْتَ بُيُوتًا جَيِّدَةً وَسَكَنْتَ، | ١٢ 12 |
lest when thou hast eaten and art satisfied, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;
وَكَثُرَتْ بَقَرُكَ وَغَنَمُكَ، وَكَثُرَتْ لَكَ ٱلْفِضَّةُ وَٱلذَّهَبُ، وَكَثُرَ كُلُّ مَا لَكَ، | ١٣ 13 |
and when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;
يَرْتَفِعُ قَلْبُكَ وَتَنْسَى ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ ٱلَّذِي أَخْرَجَكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ، | ١٤ 14 |
then thy heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
ٱلَّذِي سَارَ بِكَ فِي ٱلْقَفْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ٱلْمَخُوفِ، مَكَانِ حَيَّاتٍ مُحْرِقَةٍ وَعَقَارِبَ وَعَطَشٍ حَيْثُ لَيْسَ مَاءٌ. ٱلَّذِي أَخْرَجَ لَكَ مَاءً مِنْ صَخْرَةِ ٱلصَّوَّانِ. | ١٥ 15 |
who led thee through the great and dreadful wilderness, wherein were serpents, fiery serpents, and scorpions, and thirsty ground where was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;
ٱلَّذِي أَطْعَمَكَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ ٱلْمَنَّ ٱلَّذِي لَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ آبَاؤُكَ، لِكَيْ يُذِلَّكَ وَيُجَرِّبَكَ، لِكَيْ يُحْسِنَ إِلَيْكَ فِي آخِرَتِكَ. | ١٦ 16 |
who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that He might afflict thee, and that He might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;
وَلِئَلَّا تَقُولَ فِي قَلْبِكَ: قُوَّتِي وَقُدْرَةُ يَدِيَ ٱصْطَنَعَتْ لِي هَذِهِ ٱلثَّرْوَةَ. | ١٧ 17 |
and thou say in thy heart: 'My power and the might of my hand hath gotten me this wealth.'
بَلِ ٱذْكُرِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ، أَنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يُعْطِيكَ قُوَّةً لِٱصْطِنَاعِ ٱلثَّرْوَةِ، لِكَيْ يَفِيَ بِعَهْدِهِ ٱلَّذِي أَقْسَمَ لِآبَائِكَ كَمَا فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ١٨ 18 |
But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God, for it is He that giveth thee power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
وَإِنْ نَسِيتَ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ، وَذَهَبْتَ وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى وَعَبَدْتَهَا وَسَجَدْتَ لَهَا، أُشْهِدُ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ أَنَّكُمْ تَبِيدُونَ لَا مَحَالَةَ. | ١٩ 19 |
And it shall be, if thou shalt forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I forewarn you this day that ye shall surely perish.
كَٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُبِيدُهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِكُمْ كَذَلِكَ تَبِيدُونَ، لِأَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِقَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ. | ٢٠ 20 |
As the nations that the LORD maketh to perish before you, so shall ye perish; because ye would not hearken unto the voice of the LORD your God.
