إِرْمِيَا 12
| أَبَرُّ أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ مِنْ أَنْ أُخَاصِمَكَ. لَكِنْ أُكَلِّمُكَ مِنْ جِهَةِ أَحْكَامِكَ: لِمَاذَا تَنْجَحُ طَرِيقُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ؟ اِطْمَأَنَّ كُلُّ ٱلْغَادِرِينَ غَدْرًا! | ١ 1 |
Righteous art thou, O Jehovah, when I contend with thee, Yet will I enter into controversy with thee. Why doth the way of the wicked prosper? Why are all the men of treachery at ease?
| غَرَسْتَهُمْ فَأَصَّلُوا. نَمَوْا وَأَثْمَرُوا ثَمَرًا. أَنْتَ قَرِيبٌ فِي فَمِهِمْ وَبَعِيدٌ مِنْ كُلَاهُمْ. | ٢ 2 |
Thou hast planted them; yea, they have taken root; They grow, yea, they bring forth fruit; Thou art near to their mouth, But far from their hearts.
| وَأَنْتَ يَارَبُّ عَرَفْتَنِي. رَأَيْتَنِي وَٱخْتَبَرْتَ قَلْبِي مِنْ جِهَتِكَ. اِفْرِزْهُمْ كَغَنَمٍ لِلذَّبْحِ، وَخَصِّصْهُمْ لِيَوْمِ ٱلْقَتْلِ. | ٣ 3 |
But thou, O Jehovah, knowest me; Thou hast seen me, and tried my heart, Whether it be devoted to thee. Tear them away, as sheep for slaughter; Separate 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 mourn, And the grass of every field wither? For the wickedness of them that dwell therein, The beasts are consumed, and the birds; For they say, “He will 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 thou hast run with footmen, and they have wearied thee, Then how canst thou contend with horses? If it be so with thee in a land of peace, in which thou art secure, What wilt thou do in the glory of 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 thy brethren and the house of thy father, Even these are treacherous toward thee, And raise a full cry after thee; Trust them not, though they speak fair words to thee!
| «قَدْ تَرَكْتُ بَيْتِي. رَفَضْتُ مِيرَاثِي. دَفَعْتُ حَبِيبَةَ نَفْسِي لِيَدِ أَعْدَائِهَا. | ٧ 7 |
I have forsaken my house, I have abandoned my inheritance, I have given the darling 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 inheritance is become to me like a lion of the forest; She lifteth up her voice against me; Therefore do I hate her.
| جَارِحَةٌ ضَبُعٌ مِيرَاثِي لِي. اَلْجَوَارِحُ حَوَالَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ. هَلُمَّ ٱجْمَعُوا كُلَّ حَيَوَانِ ٱلْحَقْلِ. اِيتُوا بِهَا لِلْأَكْلِ. | ٩ 9 |
A rapacious beast, a hyena, is my inheritance become to me; Therefore shall the rapacious beasts rush upon her on all sides. Come, gather all the beasts 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; My pleasant portion have they made 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; Desolate it mourneth on account of me; The whole land is desolate, Because no man layeth my word 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 |
Upon all the high places in the desert do the plunderers come; Behold, the sword of Jehovah devoureth from one end of the land to the other; No man hath peace.
| زَرَعُوا حِنْطَةً وَحَصَدُوا شَوْكًا. أَعْيَوْا وَلَمْ يَنْتَفِعُوا، بَلْ خَزُوا مِنْ غَلَّاتِكُمْ، مِنْ حُمُوِّ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ». | ١٣ 13 |
They sow wheat, but they reap thorns; They weary themselves, and are not profited; They shall be ashamed of their harvest, Because of the fierce anger of Jehovah.
| 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 saith Jehovah against all my evil neighbors, Who seize the inheritance which I gave my people, Israel: Behold, I will pluck them out of their land, And the house of Judah will I pluck out from among them.
| وَيَكُونُ بَعْدَ ٱقْتِلَاعِي إِيَّاهُمْ، أَنِّي أَرْجِعُ فَأَرْحَمُهُمْ، وَأَرُدُّهُمْ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مِيرَاثِهِ، وَكُلَّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَرْضِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Yet after I have plucked them out of their land, I will again have compassion on them, and bring them back, Every one to his own possession, And every one to his own 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 |
And if they will indeed learn the ways of my people, And swear by my name, saying, As Jehovah liveth! 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 hearken, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation, saith Jehovah.
