اَلتَّكْوِينُ 19
| فَجَاءَ ٱلْمَلَاكَانِ إِلَى سَدُومَ مَسَاءً، وَكَانَ لُوطٌ جَالِسًا فِي بَابِ سَدُومَ. فَلَمَّا رَآهُمَا لُوطٌ قَامَ لِٱسْتِقْبَالِهِمَا، وَسَجَدَ بِوَجْهِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١ 1 |
And the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of the city. And seeing them, he rose up and went to meet them: and worshipped prostrate to the ground,
| وَقَالَ: «يَا سَيِّدَيَّ، مِيلَا إِلَى بَيْتِ عَبْدِكُمَا وَبِيتَا وَٱغْسِلَا أَرْجُلَكُمَا، ثُمَّ تُبَكِّرَانِ وَتَذْهَبَانِ فِي طَرِيقِكُمَا». فَقَالَا: «لَا، بَلْ فِي ٱلسَّاحَةِ نَبِيتُ». | ٢ 2 |
And said: I beseech you, my lords, turn in to the house of your servant, and lodge there: wash your feet, and in the morning you shall go on your way. And they said: No, but we will abide in the street.
| فَأَلَحَّ عَلَيْهِمَا جِدًّا، فَمَالَا إِلَيْهِ وَدَخَلَا بَيْتَهُ، فَصَنَعَ لَهُمَا ضِيَافَةً وَخَبَزَ فَطِيرًا فَأَكَلَا. | ٣ 3 |
He pressed them very much to turn in unto him: and when they were come into his house, he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread and they ate:
| وَقَبْلَمَا ٱضْطَجَعَا أَحَاطَ بِٱلْبَيْتِ رِجَالُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، رِجَالُ سَدُومَ، مِنَ ٱلْحَدَثِ إِلَى ٱلشَّيْخِ، كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنْ أَقْصَاهَا. | ٤ 4 |
But before they went to bed, the men of the city beset the house both young and old, all the people together.
| فَنَادَوْا لُوطًا وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «أَيْنَ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ ٱللَّذَانِ دَخَلَا إِلَيْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةَ؟ أَخْرِجْهُمَا إِلَيْنَا لِنَعْرِفَهُمَا». | ٥ 5 |
And they called Lot, and said to him: Where are the men that came in to thee at night? bring them out hither that we may know them:
| فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِمْ لُوطٌ إِلَى ٱلْبَابِ وَأَغْلَقَ ٱلْبَابَ وَرَاءَهُ | ٦ 6 |
Lot went out to them, and shut the door after him, and said:
| وَقَالَ: «لَا تَفْعَلُوا شَرًّا يَا إِخْوَتِي. | ٧ 7 |
Do not so, I beseech you, my brethren, do not commit this evil.
| هُوَذَا لِي ٱبْنَتَانِ لَمْ تَعْرِفَا رَجُلًا. أُخْرِجُهُمَا إِلَيْكُمْ فَٱفْعَلُوا بِهِمَا كَمَا يَحْسُنُ فِي عُيُونِكُمْ. وَأَمَّا هَذَانِ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ فَلَا تَفْعَلُوا بِهِمَا شَيْئًا، لِأَنَّهُمَا قَدْ دَخَلَا تَحْتَ ظِلِّ سَقْفِي». | ٨ 8 |
I have two daughters who as yet have not known man: I will bring them out to you, and abuse you them as it shall please you, so that you do no evil to these men, because they are come in under the shadow of my roof.
| فَقَالُوا: «ٱبْعُدْ إِلَى هُنَاكَ». ثُمَّ قَالُوا: «جَاءَ هَذَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ لِيَتَغَرَّبَ، وَهُوَ يَحْكُمُ حُكْمًا. ٱلْآنَ نَفْعَلُ بِكَ شَرًّا أَكْثَرَ مِنْهُمَا». فَأَلَحُّوا عَلَى ٱلْرَّجُلِ لُوطٍ جِدًّا وَتَقَدَّمُوا لِيُكَسِّرُوا ٱلْبَابَ، | ٩ 9 |
But they said: Get thee back thither. And again: Thou camest in, said they, as a, stranger, was it to be a judge? therefore we will afflict thee more than them. And they pressed very violently upon Lot: and they were even at the point of breaking open the doors.
| فَمَدَّ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ أَيْدِيَهُمَا وَأَدْخَلَا لُوطًا إِلَيْهِمَا إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَأَغْلَقَا ٱلْبَابَ. | ١٠ 10 |
And behold the men put out their hand, and drew in Lot unto them, and shut the door:
| وَأَمَّا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى بَابِ ٱلْبَيْتِ فَضَرَبَاهُمْ بِٱلْعَمَى، مِنَ ٱلصَّغِيرِ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِيرِ، فَعَجِزُوا عَنْ أَنْ يَجِدُوا ٱلْبَابَ. | ١١ 11 |
And them that were without, they struck with blindness from the least to the greatest, so that they could not find the door.
| وَقَالَ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ لِلُوطٍ: «مَنْ لَكَ أَيْضًا هَهُنَا؟ أَصْهَارَكَ وَبَنِيكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَكُلَّ مَنْ لَكَ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، أَخْرِجْ مِنَ ٱلْمَكَانِ، | ١٢ 12 |
And they said to Lot: Hast thou here any of thine? son in law, or sons, or daughters, all that are thine bring them out of this city:
| لِأَنَّنَا مُهْلِكَانِ هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانَ، إِذْ قَدْ عَظُمَ صُرَاخُهُمْ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَأَرْسَلَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ لِنُهْلِكَهُ». | ١٣ 13 |
For we will destroy this place, because their cry is grown loud before the Lord, who hath sent us to destroy them.
| فَخَرَجَ لُوطٌ وَكَلَّمَ أَصْهَارَهُ ٱلْآخِذِينَ بَنَاتِهِ وَقَالَ: «قُومُوا ٱخْرُجُوا مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مُهْلِكٌ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ». فَكَانَ كَمَازِحٍ فِي أَعْيُنِ أَصْهَارِهِ. | ١٤ 14 |
So Lot went out, and spoke to his sons in law that were to have his daughters, and said: Arise: get you out of this place, because the Lord will destroy this city. And he seemed to them to speak as it were in jest.
| وَلَمَّا طَلَعَ ٱلْفَجْرُ كَانَ ٱلْمَلَاكَانِ يُعَجِّلَانِ لُوطًا قَائِلَيْنِ: «قُمْ خُذِ ٱمْرَأَتَكَ وَٱبْنَتَيْكَ ٱلْمَوْجُودَتَيْنِ لِئَلَّا تَهْلِكَ بِإِثْمِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ». | ١٥ 15 |
And when it was morning, the angels pressed him, saying: Arise, take thy wife, and the two daughters which thou hast: lest thou also perish in the wickedness of the city.
| وَلَمَّا تَوَانَى، أَمْسَكَ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ بِيَدِهِ وَبِيَدِ ٱمْرَأَتِهِ وَبِيَدِ ٱبْنَتَيْهِ، لِشَفَقَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْهِ، وَأَخْرَجَاهُ وَوَضَعَاهُ خَارِجَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And as he lingered, they took his hand, and the hand of his wife, and of his two daughters, because the Lord spared him.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا أَخْرَجَاهُمْ إِلَى خَارِجٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «ٱهْرُبْ لِحَيَاتِكَ. لَا تَنْظُرْ إِلَى وَرَائِكَ، وَلَا تَقِفْ فِي كُلِّ ٱلدَّائِرَةِ. ٱهْرُبْ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ لِئَلَّا تَهْلِكَ». | ١٧ 17 |
And they brought him forth, and set him without the city: and there they spoke to him, saying: Save thy life: look not back, neither stay thou in all the country about: but save thyself in the mountain, lest thou be also consumed.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمَا لُوطٌ: «لَا يَا سَيِّدُ. | ١٨ 18 |
And Lot said to them: I beseech thee my Lord,
| هُوَذَا عَبْدُكَ قَدْ وَجَدَ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْكَ، وَعَظَّمْتَ لُطْفَكَ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتَ إِلَيَّ بِٱسْتِبْقَاءِ نَفْسِي، وَأَنَا لَا أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَهْرُبَ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ لَعَلَّ ٱلشَّرَّ يُدْرِكُنِي فَأَمُوتَ. | ١٩ 19 |
Because thy servant hath found grace before thee, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewn to me, in saving my life, and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil seize me, and I die:
| هُوَذَا ٱلْمَدِينَةُ هَذِهِ قَرِيبَةٌ لِلْهَرَبِ إِلَيْهَا وَهِيَ صَغِيرَةٌ. أَهْرُبُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ. أَلَيْسَتْ هِيَ صَغِيرَةً؟ فَتَحْيَا نَفْسِي». | ٢٠ 20 |
There is this city here at hand, to which I may flee, it is a little one, and I shall be saved in it: is it not a little one, and my soul shall live?
| فَقَالَ لَهُ: «إِنِّي قَدْ رَفَعْتُ وَجْهَكَ فِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ أَيْضًا، أَنْ لَا أَقْلِبَ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ ٱلَّتِي تَكَلَّمْتَ عَنْهَا. | ٢١ 21 |
And he said to him: Behold also in this, I have heard thy prayers, not to destroy the city for which thou hast spoken.
| أَسْرِعِ ٱهْرُبْ إِلَى هُنَاكَ لِأَنِّي لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَجِيءَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ». لِذَلِكَ دُعِيَ ٱسْمُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ «صُوغَرَ». | ٢٢ 22 |
Make haste and be saved there, because I cannot do any thing till thou go in thither. Therefore the name of that city was called Segor.
| وَإِذْ أَشْرَقَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ دَخَلَ لُوطٌ إِلَى صُوغَرَ، | ٢٣ 23 |
The sun was risen upon the earth, and Lot entered into Segor.
| فَأَمْطَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ كِبْرِيتًا وَنَارًا مِنْ عِنْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And the Lord rained upon Sodom and Gomorrha brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.
| وَقَلَبَ تِلْكَ ٱلْمُدُنَ، وَكُلَّ ٱلدَّائِرَةِ، وَجَمِيعَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْمُدُنِ، وَنَبَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And he destroyed these cities, and all the country about, all the inhabitants of the cities, and all things that spring from the earth.
| وَنَظَرَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ فَصَارَتْ عَمُودَ مِلْحٍ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And his wife looking behind her, was turned into a statue of salt.
| وَبَكَّرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي ٱلْغَدِ إِلَى ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي وَقَفَ فِيهِ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، | ٢٧ 27 |
And Abraham got up early in the morning and in the place where he had stood before with the Lord,
| وَتَطَلَّعَ نَحْوَ سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ، وَنَحْوَ كُلِّ أَرْضِ ٱلدَّائِرَةِ، وَنَظَرَ وَإِذَا دُخَانُ ٱلْأَرْضِ يَصْعَدُ كَدُخَانِ ٱلْأَتُونِ. | ٢٨ 28 |
He looked towards Sodom and Gomorrha, and the whole land of that country: and he saw the ashes rise up from the earth as the smoke of a furnace.
| وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا أَخْرَبَ ٱللهُ مُدُنَ ٱلدَّائِرَةِ أَنَّ ٱللهَ ذَكَرَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَأَرْسَلَ لُوطًا مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلِٱنْقِلَابِ. حِينَ قَلَبَ ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلَّتِي سَكَنَ فِيهَا لُوطٌ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Now when God destroyed the cities of that country, remembering Abraham, he delivered Lot out of the destruction of the cities wherein he had dwelt.
| وَصَعِدَ لُوطٌ مِنْ صُوغَرَ وَسَكَنَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَٱبْنَتَاهُ مَعَهُ، لِأَنَّهُ خَافَ أَنْ يَسْكُنَ فِي صُوغَرَ. فَسَكَنَ فِي ٱلْمَغَارَةِ هُوَ وَٱبْنَتَاهُ. | ٣٠ 30 |
And Lot went up out of Segor, and abode in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, (for he was afraid to stay in Segor, ) and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.
| وَقَالَتِ ٱلْبِكْرُ لِلصَّغِيرَةِ: «أَبُونَا قَدْ شَاخَ، وَلَيْسَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ رَجُلٌ لِيَدْخُلَ عَلَيْنَا كَعَادَةِ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٣١ 31 |
And the elder said to the younger Our father is old, and there is no man left on the earth, to come in unto us after the manner of the whole earth.
| هَلُمَّ نَسْقِي أَبَانَا خَمْرًا وَنَضْطَجِعُ مَعَهُ، فَنُحْيِي مِنْ أَبِينَا نَسْلًا». | ٣٢ 32 |
Come, let us make him drunk with wine, and let us lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
| فَسَقَتَا أَبَاهُمَا خَمْرًا فِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ، وَدَخَلَتِ ٱلْبِكْرُ وَٱضْطَجَعَتْ مَعَ أَبِيهَا، وَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ بِٱضْطِجَاعِهَا وَلَا بِقِيَامِهَا. | ٣٣ 33 |
And they made their father drink wine that night: and the elder went in and lay with her father: but he perceived not neither when his daughter lay down, nor when she rose up.
| وَحَدَثَ فِي ٱلْغَدِ أَنَّ ٱلْبِكْرَ قَالَتْ لِلصَّغِيرَةِ: «إِنِّي قَدِ ٱضْطَجَعْتُ ٱلْبَارِحَةَ مَعَ أَبِي. نَسْقِيهِ خَمْرًا ٱللَّيْلَةَ أَيْضًا فَٱدْخُلِي ٱضْطَجِعِي مَعَهُ، فَنُحْيِيَ مِنْ أَبِينَا نَسْلًا». | ٣٤ 34 |
And the next day the elder said to the younger: Behold I lay last night with my father, let us make him drink wine also to night, and thou shalt lie with him, that we may save seed of our father.
| فَسَقَتَا أَبَاهُمَا خَمْرًا فِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ أَيْضًا، وَقَامَتِ ٱلصَّغِيرَةُ وَٱضْطَجَعَتْ مَعَهُ، وَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ بِٱضْطِجَاعِهَا وَلَا بِقِيَامِهَا، | ٣٥ 35 |
They made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went in, and lay with him: and neither then did he perceive when she lay down, nor when she rose up.
| فَحَبِلَتِ ٱبْنَتَا لُوطٍ مِنْ أَبِيهِمَا. | ٣٦ 36 |
So the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
| فَوَلَدَتِ ٱلْبِكْرُ ٱبْنًا وَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «مُوآبَ»، وَهُوَ أَبُو ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٣٧ 37 |
And the elder bore a son, and she called his name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
| وَٱلصَّغِيرَةُ أَيْضًا وَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا وَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «بِنْ عَمِّي»، وَهُوَ أَبُو بَنِي عَمُّونَ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٣٨ 38 |
The younger also bore a son, and she called his name Ammon, that is, the son of my people: he is the father of the Ammonites unto this day.
