اَلْخُرُوجُ 5
| وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ دَخَلَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ وَقَالَا لِفِرْعَوْنَ: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: أَطْلِقْ شَعْبِي لِيُعَيِّدُوا لِي فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ». | ١ 1 |
Afterward Moses and Aaron came, and said to Pharaoh, "This is what the LORD, God of Israel, says, 'Let my people go, that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.'"
| فَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: «مَنْ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ حَتَّى أَسْمَعَ لِقَوْلِهِ فَأُطْلِقَ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ لَا أَعْرِفُ ٱلرَّبَّ، وَإِسْرَائِيلَ لَا أُطْلِقُهُ». | ٢ 2 |
Pharaoh said, "Who is the LORD, that I should listen to his voice to let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, and moreover I will not let Israel go."
| فَقَالَا: «إِلَهُ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ قَدِ ٱلْتَقَانَا، فَنَذْهَبُ سَفَرَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ وَنَذْبَحُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا، لِئَلَّا يُصِيبَنَا بِٱلْوَبَإِ أَوْ بِٱلسَّيْفِ». | ٣ 3 |
They said, "The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please let us go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to our God, lest he fall on us with pestilence, or with the sword."
| فَقَالَ لَهُمَا مَلِكُ مِصْرَ: «لِمَاذَا يَا مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ تُبَطِّلَانِ ٱلشَّعْبَ مِنْ أَعْمَالِهِ؟ اِذْهَبَا إِلَى أَثْقَالِكُمَا». | ٤ 4 |
The king of Egypt said to them, "Why do you, Moses and Aaron, take the people from their work? Get back to your burdens."
| وَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: «هُوَذَا ٱلْآنَ شَعْبُ ٱلْأَرْضِ كَثِيرٌ وَأَنْتُمَا تُرِيحَانِهِمْ مِنْ أَثْقَالِهِمْ». | ٥ 5 |
Pharaoh said, "Look, the people of the land are now many, and you make them rest from their burdens."
| فَأَمَرَ فِرْعَوْنُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ مُسَخِّرِي ٱلشَّعْبِ وَمُدَبِّرِيهِ قَائِلًا: | ٦ 6 |
The same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying,
| «لَا تَعُودُوا تُعْطُونَ ٱلشَّعْبَ تِبْنًا لِصُنْعِ ٱللِّبْنِ كَأَمْسِ وَأَوَّلَ مِنْ أَمْسِ. لِيَذْهَبُوا هُمْ وَيَجْمَعُوا تِبْنًا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ. | ٧ 7 |
"You shall no longer give the people straw to make brick, as before. Let them go and gather straw for themselves.
| وَمِقْدَارَ ٱللِّبْنِ ٱلَّذِي كَانُوا يَصْنَعُونَهُ أَمْسِ، وَأَوَّلَ مِنْ أَمْسِ تَجْعَلُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ. لَا تَنْقُصُوا مِنْهُ، فَإِنَّهُمْ مُتَكَاسِلُونَ، لِذَلِكَ يَصْرُخُونَ قَائِلِينَ: نَذْهَبُ وَنَذْبَحُ لِإِلَهِنَا. | ٨ 8 |
The number of the bricks, which they made before, you require from them. You shall not diminish anything of it, for they are idle; therefore they cry, saying, 'Let us go and sacrifice to our God.'
| لِيُثَقَّلِ ٱلْعَمَلُ عَلَى ٱلْقَوْمِ حَتَّى يَشْتَغِلُوا بِهِ وَلَا يَلْتَفِتُوا إِلَى كَلَامِ ٱلْكَذِبِ». | ٩ 9 |
Let heavier work be laid on the men, so they may labor at it and pay no attention to lying words."
| فَخَرَجَ مُسَخِّرُو ٱلشَّعْبِ وَمُدَبِّرُوهُ وَكَلَّمُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ، قَائِلِينَ: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ فِرْعَوْنُ: لَسْتُ أُعْطِيكُمْ تِبْنًا. | ١٠ 10 |
The taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spoke to the people, saying, "This is what Pharaoh says: 'I will not give you straw.
| ٱذْهَبُوا أَنْتُمْ وَخُذُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ تِبْنًا مِنْ حَيْثُ تَجِدُونَ. إِنَّهُ لَا يُنْقَصُ مِنْ عَمَلِكُمْ شَيْءٌ». | ١١ 11 |
Go yourselves, get straw where you can find it, for nothing of your work shall be diminished.'"
| فَتَفَرَّقَ ٱلشَّعْبُ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ لِيَجْمَعُوا قَشًّا عِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلتِّبْنِ. | ١٢ 12 |
So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather dry stalks for straw.
| وَكَانَ ٱلْمُسَخِّرُونَ يُعَجِّلُونَهُمْ قَائِلِينَ: «كَمِّلُوا أَعْمَالَكُمْ، أَمْرَ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ بِيَوْمِهِ، كَمَا كَانَ حِينَمَا كَانَ ٱلتِّبْنُ». | ١٣ 13 |
The taskmasters kept pressing them, saying, "Fulfill your work quota, your daily amount, as when there was straw."
| فَضُرِبَ مُدَبِّرُو بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَقَامَهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ مُسَخِّرُو فِرْعَوْنَ، وَقِيلَ لَهُمْ: «لِمَاذَا لَمْ تُكَمِّلُوا فَرِيضَتَكُمْ مِنْ صُنْعِ ٱللِّبْنِ أَمْسِ وَٱلْيَوْمَ كَٱلْأَمْسِ وَأَوَّلَ مِنْ أَمْسِ؟». | ١٤ 14 |
The officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and demanded, "Why haven't you fulfilled your quota both yesterday and today, in making brick as before?"
| فَأَتَى مُدَبِّرُو بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَصَرَخُوا إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ قَائِلِينَ: «لِمَاذَا تَفْعَلُ هَكَذَا بِعَبِيدِكَ؟ | ١٥ 15 |
Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried to Pharaoh, saying, "Why do you deal this way with your servants?
| اَلتِّبْنُ لَيْسَ يُعْطَى لِعَبِيدِكَ، وَٱللِّبْنُ يَقُولُونَ لَنَا: ٱصْنَعُوهُ! وَهُوَذَا عَبِيدُكَ مَضْرُوبُونَ، وَقَدْ أَخْطَأَ شَعْبُكَ». | ١٦ 16 |
No straw is given to your servants, and they tell us, 'Make bricks.' And look, your servants are beaten, but the fault is with your own people."
| فَقَالَ: «مُتَكَاسِلُونَ أَنْتُمْ، مُتَكَاسِلُونَ! لِذَلِكَ تَقُولُونَ: نَذْهَبُ وَنَذْبَحُ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٧ 17 |
But he said, "You are slackers! Slackers! Therefore you say, 'Let us go and sacrifice to God.'
| فَٱلْآنَ ٱذْهَبُوا ٱعْمَلُوا. وَتِبْنٌ لَا يُعْطَى لَكُمْ وَمِقْدَارَ ٱللِّبْنِ تُقَدِّمُونَهُ». | ١٨ 18 |
Go therefore now, and work, for no straw shall be given to you, yet you shall deliver the same number of bricks."
| فَرَأَى مُدَبِّرُو بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ فِي بَلِيَّةٍ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ لَا تُنَقِّصُوا مِنْ لِبْنِكُمْ أَمْرَ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ بِيَوْمِهِ. | ١٩ 19 |
The officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in trouble, when it was said, "You shall not diminish anything from your daily quota of bricks."
| وَصَادَفُوا مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ وَاقِفَيْنِ لِلِقَائِهِمْ حِينَ خَرَجُوا مِنْ لَدُنْ فِرْعَوْنَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
They met Moses and Aaron, who stood in the way, as they came forth from Pharaoh:
| فَقَالُوا لَهُمَا: «يَنْظُرُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَيْكُمَا وَيَقْضِي، لِأَنَّكُمَا أَنْتَنْتُمَا رَائِحَتَنَا فِي عَيْنَيْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَفِي عُيُونِ عَبِيدِهِ حَتَّى تُعْطِيَا سَيْفًا فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ لِيَقْتُلُونَا». | ٢١ 21 |
and they said to them, "May God look at you, and judge, because you have made us a stench to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us."
| فَرَجَعَ مُوسَى إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، لِمَاذَا أَسَأْتَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ؟ لِمَاذَا أَرْسَلْتَنِي؟ | ٢٢ 22 |
Moses returned to the LORD, and said, "Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Why is it that you have sent me?
| فَإِنَّهُ مُنْذُ دَخَلْتُ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ لِأَتَكَلَّمَ بِٱسْمِكَ، أَسَاءَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ. وَأَنْتَ لَمْ تُخَلِّصْ شَعْبَكَ». | ٢٣ 23 |
For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has brought trouble on this people; neither have you delivered your people at all."
