< هُوشَع 4 >
اِسْمَعُوا قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «إِنَّ لِلرَّبِّ مُحَاكَمَةً مَعَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّهُ لَا أَمَانَةَ وَلَا إِحْسَانَ وَلَا مَعْرِفَةَ ٱللهِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١ 1 |
Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
لَعْنٌ وَكَذِبٌ وَقَتْلٌ وَسِرْقَةٌ وَفِسْقٌ. يَعْتَنِفُونَ، وَدِمَاءٌ تَلْحَقُ دِمَاءً. | ٢ 2 |
There is nought but swearing and breaking faith, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery; they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
لِذَلِكَ تَنُوحُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَيَذْبُلُ كُلُّ مَنْ يَسْكُنُ فِيهَا مَعَ حَيَوَانِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ وَطُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَأَسْمَاكِ ٱلْبَحْرِ أَيْضًا تَنْتَزِعُ. | ٣ 3 |
Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field and the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
«وَلَكِنْ لَا يُحَاكِمْ أَحَدٌ وَلَا يُعَاتِبْ أَحَدٌ. وَشَعْبُكَ كَمَنْ يُخَاصِمُ كَاهِنًا. | ٤ 4 |
Yet let no man strive, neither let any man reprove; for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.
فَتَتَعَثَّرُ فِي ٱلنَّهَارِ وَيَتَعَثَّرُ أَيْضًا ٱلنَّبِيُّ مَعَكَ فِي ٱللَّيْلِ، وَأَنَا أُخْرِبُ أُمَّكَ. | ٥ 5 |
And thou shalt stumble in the day, and the prophet also shall stumble with thee in the night; and I will destroy thy mother.
قَدْ هَلَكَ شَعْبِي مِنْ عَدَمِ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ. لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ رَفَضْتَ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةَ أَرْفُضُكَ أَنَا حَتَّى لَا تَكْهَنَ لِي. وَلِأَنَّكَ نَسِيتَ شَرِيعَةَ إِلَهِكَ أَنْسَى أَنَا أَيْضًا بَنِيكَ. | ٦ 6 |
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I also will forget thy children.
عَلَى حَسْبَمَا كَثُرُوا، هَكَذَا أَخْطَأُوا إِلَيَّ، فَأُبْدِلُ كَرَامَتَهُمْ بِهَوَانٍ. | ٧ 7 |
As they were multiplied, so they sinned against me: I will change their glory into shame.
يَأْكُلُونَ خَطِيَّةَ شَعْبِي وَإِلَى إِثْمِهِمْ يَحْمِلُونَ نُفُوسَهُمْ. | ٨ 8 |
They feed on the sin of my people, and set their heart on their iniquity.
فَيَكُونُ كَمَا ٱلشَّعْبُ هَكَذَا ٱلْكَاهِنُ. وَأُعَاقِبُهُمْ عَلَى طُرُقِهِمْ وَأَرُدُّ أَعْمَالَهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ. | ٩ 9 |
And it shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and will reward them their doings.
فَيَأْكُلُونَ وَلَا يَشْبَعُونَ، وَيَزْنُونَ وَلَا يَكْثُرُونَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ تَرَكُوا عِبَادَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١٠ 10 |
And they shall eat, and not have enough; they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.
«اَلزِّنَى وَٱلْخَمْرُ وَٱلسُّلَافَةُ تَخْلِبُ ٱلْقَلْبَ. | ١١ 11 |
Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the understanding.
شَعْبِي يَسْأَلُ خَشَبَهُ، وَعَصَاهُ تُخْبِرُهُ، لِأَنَّ رُوحَ ٱلزِّنَى قَدْ أَضَلَّهُمْ فَزَنَوْا مِنْ تَحْتِ إِلَهِهِمْ. | ١٢ 12 |
My people ask counsel at their stock, and their staff declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredom hath caused them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.
يَذْبَحُونَ عَلَى رُؤُوسِ ٱلْجِبَالِ، وَيُبَخِّرُونَ عَلَى ٱلتِّلَالِ تَحْتَ ٱلْبَلُّوطِ وَٱللُّبْنَى وَٱلْبُطْمِ لِأَنَّ ظِلَّهَا حَسَنٌ! لِذَلِكَ تَزْنِي بَنَاتُكُمْ وَتَفْسِقُ كَنَّاتُكُمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and terebinths, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters commit whoredom, and your brides commit adultery.
لَا أُعَاقِبُ بَنَاتِكُمْ لِأَنَّهُنَّ يَزْنِينَ، وَلَا كَنَّاتِكُمْ لِأَنَّهُنَّ يَفْسِقْنَ. لِأَنَّهُمْ يَعْتَزِلُونَ مَعَ ٱلزَّانِيَاتِ وَيَذْبَحُونَ مَعَ ٱلنَّاذِرَاتِ ٱلزِّنَى. وَشَعْبٌ لَا يَعْقِلُ يُصْرَعُ. | ١٤ 14 |
I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your brides when they commit adultery; for they themselves go apart with whores, and they sacrifice with the harlots: and the people that doth not understand shall be overthrown.
«إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ زَانِيًا يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ فَلَا يَأْثَمُ يَهُوذَا. وَلَا تَأْتُوا إِلَى ٱلْجِلْجَالِ وَلَا تَصْعَدُوا إِلَى بَيْتِ آوَنَ وَلَا تَحْلِفُوا: حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٥ 15 |
Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to Beth-aven, nor swear, As the LORD liveth.
إِنَّهُ قَدْ جَمَحَ إِسْرَائِيلُ كَبَقَرَةٍ جَامِحَةٍ. اَلْآنَ يَرْعَاهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ كَخَرُوفٍ فِي مَكَانٍ وَاسِعٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
For Israel hath behaved himself stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer: now will the LORD feed them as a lamb in a large place.
أَفْرَايِمُ مُوثَقٌ بِٱلْأَصْنَامِ. ٱتْرُكُوهُ. | ١٧ 17 |
Ephraim is joined to idols; let him alone.
مَتَى ٱنْتَهَتْ مُنَادَمَتُهُمْ زَنَوْا زِنًى. أَحَبَّ مَجَانُّهَا، أَحَبُّوا ٱلْهَوَانَ. | ١٨ 18 |
Their drink is become sour: they commit whoredom continually; her rulers dearly love shame.
قَدْ صَرَّتْهَا ٱلرِّيحُ فِي أَجْنِحَتِهَا، وَخَجِلُوا مِنْ ذَبَائِحِهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
The wind hath wrapped her up in its wings; and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
