إِرْمِيَا 12
| أَبَرُّ أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ مِنْ أَنْ أُخَاصِمَكَ. لَكِنْ أُكَلِّمُكَ مِنْ جِهَةِ أَحْكَامِكَ: لِمَاذَا تَنْجَحُ طَرِيقُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ؟ اِطْمَأَنَّ كُلُّ ٱلْغَادِرِينَ غَدْرًا! | ١ 1 |
You are righteous, LORD, when I contend with you; yet I would reason the cause with you: why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are they all at ease who deal very treacherously?
| غَرَسْتَهُمْ فَأَصَّلُوا. نَمَوْا وَأَثْمَرُوا ثَمَرًا. أَنْتَ قَرِيبٌ فِي فَمِهِمْ وَبَعِيدٌ مِنْ كُلَاهُمْ. | ٢ 2 |
You have planted them, yes, they have taken root; they grow, yes, they bring forth fruit: you are near in their mouth, and far from their heart.
| وَأَنْتَ يَارَبُّ عَرَفْتَنِي. رَأَيْتَنِي وَٱخْتَبَرْتَ قَلْبِي مِنْ جِهَتِكَ. اِفْرِزْهُمْ كَغَنَمٍ لِلذَّبْحِ، وَخَصِّصْهُمْ لِيَوْمِ ٱلْقَتْلِ. | ٣ 3 |
But you, LORD, know me; you see me, and try my heart toward you: pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.
| حَتَّى مَتَى تَنُوحُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَيَيْبَسُ عُشْبُ كُلِّ ٱلْحَقْلِ؟ مِنْ شَرِّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِيهَا فَنِيَتِ ٱلْبَهَائِمُ وَٱلطُّيُورُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «لَا يَرَى آخِرَتَنَا». | ٤ 4 |
How long shall the land be parched, and the grass of every field wither? For the wickedness of those who dwell in it, the animals are consumed, and the birds; because they said, "He shall not see our latter end."
| «إِنْ جَرَيْتَ مَعَ ٱلْمُشَاةِ فَأَتْعَبُوكَ، فَكَيْفَ تُبَارِي ٱلْخَيْلَ؟ وَإِنْ كُنْتَ مُنْبَطِحًا فِي أَرْضِ ٱلسَّلَامِ، فَكَيْفَ تَعْمَلُ فِي كِبْرِيَاءِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ؟ | ٥ 5 |
"If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with horses? And though in a land of peace you are secure, yet how will you do in the pride of the Jordan?
| لِأَنَّ إِخْوَتَكَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ وَبَيْتَ أَبِيكَ قَدْ غَادَرُوكَ هُمْ أَيْضًا. هُمْ أَيْضًا نَادَوْا وَرَاءَكَ بِصَوْتٍ عَالٍ. لَا تَأْتَمِنْهُمْ إِذَا كَلَّمُوكَ بِٱلْخَيْرِ. | ٦ 6 |
For even your brothers, and the house of your father, even they have dealt treacherously with you; even they have cried aloud after you: do not believe them, though they speak beautiful words to you.
| «قَدْ تَرَكْتُ بَيْتِي. رَفَضْتُ مِيرَاثِي. دَفَعْتُ حَبِيبَةَ نَفْسِي لِيَدِ أَعْدَائِهَا. | ٧ 7 |
I have forsaken my house, I have cast off my heritage; I have given the dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her enemies.
| صَارَ لِي مِيرَاثِي كَأَسَدٍ فِي ٱلْوَعْرِ. نَطَقَ عَلَيَّ بِصَوْتِهِ. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَبْغَضْتُهُ. | ٨ 8 |
My heritage has become to me as a lion in the forest: she has uttered her voice against me; therefore I have hated her.
| جَارِحَةٌ ضَبُعٌ مِيرَاثِي لِي. اَلْجَوَارِحُ حَوَالَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ. هَلُمَّ ٱجْمَعُوا كُلَّ حَيَوَانِ ٱلْحَقْلِ. اِيتُوا بِهَا لِلْأَكْلِ. | ٩ 9 |
Is my heritage to me as a speckled bird of prey? Are the birds of prey against her all around? Go, assemble all the animals of the field, bring them to devour.
| رُعَاةٌ كَثِيرُونَ أَفْسَدُوا كَرْمِي، دَاسُوا نَصِيبِي. جَعَلُوا نَصِيبِي ٱلْمُشْتَهَى بَرِّيَّةً خَرِبَةً. | ١٠ 10 |
Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot, they have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.
| جَعَلُوهُ خَرَابًا يَنُوحُ عَلَيَّ وَهُوَ خَرِبٌ. خَرِبَتْ كُلُّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّهُ لَا أَحَدَ يَضَعُ فِي قَلْبِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
They have made it a desolation; it mourns to me, being desolate; the whole land is made desolate, because no man lays it to heart.
| عَلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلرَّوَابِي فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ أَتَى ٱلنَّاهِبُونَ، لِأَنَّ سَيْفًا لِلرَّبِّ يَأْكُلُ مِنْ أَقْصَى ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى أَقْصَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. لَيْسَ سَلَامٌ لِأَحَدٍ مِنَ ٱلْبَشَرِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Destroyers have come on all the bare heights in the wilderness; for the sword of the LORD devours from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land: no flesh has peace.
| زَرَعُوا حِنْطَةً وَحَصَدُوا شَوْكًا. أَعْيَوْا وَلَمْ يَنْتَفِعُوا، بَلْ خَزُوا مِنْ غَلَّاتِكُمْ، مِنْ حُمُوِّ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ». | ١٣ 13 |
They have sown wheat, and have reaped thorns; they have put themselves to pain, and profit nothing: and you shall be ashamed of your fruits, because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
| هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى جَمِيعِ جِيرَانِي ٱلْأَشْرَارِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَلْمِسُونَ ٱلْمِيرَاثَ ٱلَّذِي أَوْرَثْتُهُ لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «هَأَنَذَا أَقْتَلِعُهُمْ عَنْ أَرْضِهِمْ وَأَقْتَلِعُ بَيْتَ يَهُوذَا مِنْ وَسْطِهِمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
Thus says the LORD against all my evil neighbors, who touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit: 'look, I will pluck them up from off their land, and will pluck up the house of Judah from among them.
| وَيَكُونُ بَعْدَ ٱقْتِلَاعِي إِيَّاهُمْ، أَنِّي أَرْجِعُ فَأَرْحَمُهُمْ، وَأَرُدُّهُمْ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مِيرَاثِهِ، وَكُلَّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَرْضِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
It shall happen, after that I have plucked them up, I will return and have compassion on them; and I will bring them again, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.
| وَيَكُونُ إِذَا تَعَلَّمُوا عِلْمًا طُرُقَ شَعْبِي أَنْ يَحْلِفُوا بِٱسْمِي: حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ، كَمَا عَلَّمُوا شَعْبِي أَنْ يَحْلِفُوا بِبَعْلٍ، أَنَّهُمْ يُبْنَوْنَ فِي وَسْطِ شَعْبِي. | ١٦ 16 |
It shall happen, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, "As the LORD lives;" even as they taught my people to swear by Baal; then shall they be built up in the midst of my people.
| وَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا، فَإِنِّي أَقْتَلِعُ تِلْكَ ٱلْأُمَّةَ ٱقْتِلَاعًا وَأُبِيدُهَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ١٧ 17 |
But if they will not hear, then will I pluck up that nation, plucking up and destroying it,'" says the LORD.
