اَلْخُرُوجُ 2
| وَذَهَبَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَاوِي وَأَخَذَ بِنْتَ لَاوِي، | ١ 1 |
After this there went a man of the house of Levi; and took a wife of his own kindred.
| فَحَبِلَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ وَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا. وَلَمَّا رَأَتْهُ أَنَّهُ حَسَنٌ، خَبَّأَتْهُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْهُرٍ. | ٢ 2 |
And she conceived, and bore a son; and seeing him a goodly child hid him three months.
| وَلَمَّا لَمْ يُمْكِنْهَا أَنْ تُخَبِّئَهُ بَعْدُ، أَخَذَتْ لَهُ سَفَطًا مِنَ ٱلْبَرْدِيِّ وَطَلَتْهُ بِٱلْحُمَرِ وَٱلزِّفْتِ، وَوَضَعَتِ ٱلْوَلَدَ فِيهِ، وَوَضَعَتْهُ بَيْنَ ٱلْحَلْفَاءِ عَلَى حَافَةِ ٱلنَّهْرِ. | ٣ 3 |
And when she could hide him no longer, she took a basket made of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and pitch: and put the little babe therein, and laid him in the sedges by the river’s brink,
| وَوَقَفَتْ أُخْتُهُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ لِتَعْرِفَ مَاذَا يُفْعَلُ بِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
His sister standing afar off, and taking notice what would be done.
| فَنَزَلَتِ ٱبْنَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ إِلَى ٱلنَّهْرِ لِتَغْتَسِلَ، وَكَانَتْ جَوَارِيهَا مَاشِيَاتٍ عَلَى جَانِبِ ٱلنَّهْرِ. فَرَأَتِ ٱلسَّفَطَ بَيْنَ ٱلْحَلْفَاءِ، فَأَرْسَلَتْ أَمَتَهَا وَأَخَذَتْهُ. | ٥ 5 |
And behold the daughter of Pharao came down to wash herself in the river: and her maids walked by the river’s brink. And when she saw the basket in the sedges, she sent one of her maids for it: and when it was brought,
| وَلَمَّا فَتَحَتْهُ رَأَتِ ٱلْوَلَدَ، وَإِذَا هُوَ صَبِيٌّ يَبْكِي. فَرَقَّتْ لَهُ وَقَالَتْ: «هَذَا مِنْ أَوْلَادِ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ». | ٦ 6 |
She opened it and seeing within it an infant crying, having compassion on it she said: This is one of the babes of the Hebrews.
| فَقَالَتْ أُخْتُهُ لِٱبْنَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ: «هَلْ أَذْهَبُ وَأَدْعُو لَكِ ٱمْرَأَةً مُرْضِعَةً مِنَ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّاتِ لِتُرْضِعَ لَكِ ٱلْوَلَدَ؟» | ٧ 7 |
And the child’s sister said to her Shall I go and call to thee a Hebrew woman, to nurse the babe?
| فَقَالَتْ لَهَا ٱبْنَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ: «ٱذْهَبِي». فَذَهَبَتِ ٱلْفَتَاةُ وَدَعَتْ أُمَّ ٱلْوَلَدِ. | ٨ 8 |
She answered: Go. The maid went and called her mother.
| فَقَالَتْ لَهَا ٱبْنَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ: «ٱذْهَبِي بِهَذَا ٱلْوَلَدِ وَأَرْضِعِيهِ لِي وَأَنَا أُعْطِي أُجْرَتَكِ». فَأَخَذَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ ٱلْوَلَدَ وَأَرْضَعَتْهُ. | ٩ 9 |
And Pharao’s daughter said to her. Take this child and nurse him for me: I will give thee thy wages. The woman took, and nursed the child: and when he was grown up, she delivered him to Pharao’s daughter.
| وَلَمَّا كَبِرَ ٱلْوَلَدُ جَاءَتْ بِهِ إِلَى ٱبْنَةِ فِرْعَوْنَ فَصَارَ لَهَا ٱبْنًا، وَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «مُوسَى» وَقَالَتْ: «إِنِّي ٱنْتَشَلْتُهُ مِنَ ٱلْمَاءِ». | ١٠ 10 |
And she adopted him for a son, and called him Moses, saying: Because I took him out of the water.
| وَحَدَثَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لَمَّا كَبِرَ مُوسَى أَنَّهُ خَرَجَ إِلَى إِخْوَتِهِ لِيَنْظُرَ فِي أَثْقَالِهِمْ، فَرَأَى رَجُلًا مِصْرِيًّا يَضْرِبُ رَجُلًا عِبْرَانِيًّا مِنْ إِخْوَتِهِ، | ١١ 11 |
In those days after Moses was grown up, he went out to his brethren: and saw their affliction, and an Egyptian striking one of the Hebrews his brethren.
| فَٱلْتَفَتَ إِلَى هُنَا وَهُنَاكَ وَرَأَى أَنْ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ، فَقَتَلَ ٱلْمِصْرِيَّ وَطَمَرَهُ فِي ٱلرَّمْلِ. | ١٢ 12 |
And when he had looked about this way and that way, and saw no one there, he slew the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.
| ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّانِي وَإِذَا رَجُلَانِ عِبْرَانِيَّانِ يَتَخَاصَمَانِ، فَقَالَ لِلْمُذْنِبِ: «لِمَاذَا تَضْرِبُ صَاحِبَكَ؟» | ١٣ 13 |
And going out the next day, he saw two Hebrews quarrelling: and he said to him that did the wrong: Why strikest thou thy neighbour?
| فَقَالَ: «مَنْ جَعَلَكَ رَئِيسًا وَقَاضِيًا عَلَيْنَا؟ أَمُفْتَكِرٌ أَنْتَ بِقَتْلِي كَمَا قَتَلْتَ ٱلْمِصْرِيَّ؟». فَخَافَ مُوسَى وَقَالَ: «حَقًّا قَدْ عُرِفَ ٱلْأَمْرُ». | ١٤ 14 |
But he answered: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge over us? Wilt thou kill me, as thou didst yesterday kill the Egyptian? Moses feared, and said: How is this come to be known?
| فَسَمِعَ فِرْعَوْنُ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ، فَطَلَبَ أَنْ يَقْتُلَ مُوسَى. فَهَرَبَ مُوسَى مِنْ وَجْهِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَسَكَنَ فِي أَرْضِ مِدْيَانَ، وَجَلَسَ عِنْدَ ٱلْبِئْرِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And Pharao heard of this word and sought to kill Moses: but he fled from his sight, and abode in the land of Madian, and he sat down by a well.
| وَكَانَ لِكَاهِنِ مِدْيَانَ سَبْعُ بَنَاتٍ، فَأَتَيْنَ وَٱسْتَقَيْنَ وَمَلَأْنَ ٱلْأَجْرَانَ لِيَسْقِينَ غَنَمَ أَبِيهِنَّ. | ١٦ 16 |
And the priest of Madian had seven daughters, who came to draw water: and when the troughs were filled, desired to water their father’s flocks.
| فَأَتَى ٱلرُّعَاةُ وَطَرَدُوهُنَّ. فَنَهَضَ مُوسَى وَأَنْجَدَهُنَّ وَسَقَى غَنَمَهُنَّ. | ١٧ 17 |
And the shepherds came and drove them away: and Moses arose, and defending the maids, watered their sheep.
| فَلَمَّا أَتَيْنَ إِلَى رَعُوئِيلَ أَبِيهِنَّ قَالَ: «مَا بَالُكُنَّ أَسْرَعْتُنَّ فِي ٱلْمَجِيءِ ٱلْيَوْمَ؟» | ١٨ 18 |
And when they returned to Raguel their father, he said to them: Why are ye come sooner than usual?
| فَقُلْنَ: «رَجُلٌ مِصْرِيٌّ أَنْقَذَنَا مِنْ أَيْدِي ٱلرُّعَاةِ، وَإِنَّهُ ٱسْتَقَى لَنَا أَيْضًا وَسَقَى ٱلْغَنَمَ». | ١٩ 19 |
They answered: A man of Egypt delivered us from the hands of the shepherds: and he drew water also with us, and gave the sheep to drink.
| فَقَالَ لِبَنَاتِهِ: «وَأَيْنَ هُوَ؟ لِمَاذَا تَرَكْتُنَّ ٱلرَّجُلَ؟ ٱدْعُونَهُ لِيَأْكُلَ طَعَامًا». | ٢٠ 20 |
But he said: Where is he? why have you let the man go? call him that he may eat bread.
| فَٱرْتَضَى مُوسَى أَنْ يَسْكُنَ مَعَ ٱلرَّجُلِ، فَأَعْطَى مُوسَى صَفُّورَةَ ٱبْنَتَهُ. | ٢١ 21 |
And Moses swore that he would dwell with him. And he took Sephora his daughter to wife:
| فَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا فَدَعَا ٱسْمَهُ «جَرْشُومَ»، لِأَنَّهُ قَالَ: «كُنْتُ نَزِيلًا فِي أَرْضٍ غَرِيبَةٍ». | ٢٢ 22 |
And she bore him a son, whom he called Gersam, saying: I have been a stranger in a foreign country. And she bore another, whom he called Eliezer, saying: For the God of my father, my helper hath delivered me out of the hand of Pharao.
| وَحَدَثَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْكَثِيرَةِ أَنَّ مَلِكَ مِصْرَ مَاتَ. وَتَنَهَّدَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ وَصَرَخُوا، فَصَعِدَ صُرَاخُهُمْ إِلَى ٱللهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Now after a long time the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel groaning, cried out because of the works: and their cry went up unto God from the works.
| فَسَمِعَ ٱللهُ أَنِينَهُمْ، فَتَذَكَّرَ ٱللهُ مِيثَاقَهُ مَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And he heard their groaning, and remembered the covenant which he made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
| وَنَظَرَ ٱللهُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَعَلِمَ ٱللهُ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And the Lord looked upon the children of Israel, and he knew them.
