إِرْمِيَا 14
| كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّتِي صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْقَحْطِ: | ١ 1 |
The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah concerning the droughts.
| «نَاحَتْ يَهُوذَا وَأَبْوَابُهَا ذَبُلَتْ. حَزِنَتْ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَصَعِدَ عَوِيلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ٢ 2 |
Judah mourneth, and the gates thereof languish, they bow down in black unto the ground; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.
| وَأَشْرَافُهُمْ أَرْسَلُوا أَصَاغِرَهُمْ لِلْمَاءِ. أَتَوْا إِلَى ٱلْأَجْبَابِ فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا مَاءً. رَجَعُوا بِآنِيَتِهِمْ فَارِغَةً. خَزُوا وَخَجِلُوا وَغَطَّوْا رُؤُوسَهُمْ | ٣ 3 |
And their nobles send their lads for water: they come to the pits, and find no water; their vessels return empty; they are ashamed and confounded, and cover their heads.
| مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ قَدْ تَشَقَّقَتْ، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَطَرٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ خَزِيَ ٱلْفَلَّاحُونَ. غَطَّوْا رُؤُوسَهُمْ. | ٤ 4 |
Because of the ground which is cracked, for there hath been no rain in the land, the plowmen are ashamed, they cover their heads.
| حَتَّى أَنَّ ٱلْإِيَّلَةَ أَيْضًا فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ وَلَدَتْ وَتَرَكَتْ، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ كَلأٌ. | ٥ 5 |
Yea, the hind also in the field calveth, and forsaketh her young, because there is no grass,
| ٱلْفِرَا وَقَفَتْ عَلَى ٱلْهِضَابِ تَسْتَنْشِقُ ٱلرِّيحَ مِثْلَ بَنَاتِ آوَى. كَلَّتْ عُيُونُهَا لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ عُشْبٌ». | ٦ 6 |
And the wild asses stand on the high hills, they gasp for air like jackals; their eyes fail, because there is no herbage.
| وَإِنْ تَكُنْ آثَامُنَا تَشْهَدُ عَلَيْنَا يَارَبُّ، فَٱعْمَلْ لِأَجْلِ ٱسْمِكَ. لِأَنَّ مَعَاصِيَنَا كَثُرَتْ. إِلَيْكَ أَخْطَأْنَا. | ٧ 7 |
Though our iniquities testify against us, O LORD, work Thou for Thy name's sake; for our backslidings are many, we have sinned against Thee.
| يَا رَجَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، مُخَلِّصَهُ فِي زَمَانِ ٱلضِّيقِ، لِمَاذَا تَكُونُ كَغَرِيبٍ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَكَمُسَافِرٍ يَمِيلُ لِيَبِيتَ؟ | ٨ 8 |
O Thou hope of Israel, the Saviour thereof in time of trouble, why shouldest Thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry for a night?
| لِمَاذَا تَكُونُ كَإِنْسَانٍ قَدْ تَحَيَّرَ، كَجَبَّارٍ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَ؟ وَأَنْتَ فِي وَسْطِنَا يَارَبُّ، وَقَدْ دُعِينَا بِٱسْمِكَ. لَا تَتْرُكْنَا! | ٩ 9 |
Why shouldest thou be as a man overcome, as a mighty man that cannot save? Yet Thou, O LORD, art in the midst of us, and Thy name is called upon us; leave us not.
| هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ: «هَكَذَا أَحَبُّوا أَنْ يَجُولُوا. لَمْ يَمْنَعُوا أَرْجُلَهُمْ، فَٱلرَّبُّ لَمْ يَقْبَلْهُمْ. اَلْآنَ يَذْكُرُ إِثْمَهُمْ وَيُعَاقِبُ خَطَايَاهُمْ». | ١٠ 10 |
Thus saith the LORD unto this people: Even so have they loved to wander, they have not refrained their feet; therefore the LORD doth not accept them, now will He remember their iniquity, and punish their sins.
| وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «لَا تُصَلِّ لِأَجْلِ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ لِلْخَيْرِ. | ١١ 11 |
And the LORD said unto me: 'Pray not for this people for their good.
| حِينَ يَصُومُونَ لَا أَسْمَعُ صُرَاخَهُمْ، وَحِينَ يُصْعِدُونَ مُحْرَقَةً وَتَقْدِمَةً لَا أَقْبَلُهُمْ، بَلْ بِٱلسَّيْفِ وَٱلْجُوعِ وَٱلْوَبَإِ أَنَا أُفْنِيهِمْ». | ١٢ 12 |
When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt-offering and meal-offering, I will not accept them; but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.'
| فَقُلْتُ: «آهِ، أَيُّهَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ! هُوَذَا ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءُ يَقُولُونَ لَهُمْ لَا تَرَوْنَ سَيْفًا، وَلَا يَكُونُ لَكُمْ جُوعٌ بَلْ سَلَامًا ثَابِتًا أُعْطِيكُمْ فِي هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ». | ١٣ 13 |
Then said I: 'Ah, Lord GOD! behold, the prophets say unto them: Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.'
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «بِٱلْكَذِبِ يَتَنَبَّأُ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءُ بِٱسْمِي. لَمْ أُرْسِلْهُمْ، وَلَا أَمَرْتُهُمْ، وَلَا كَلَّمْتُهُمْ. بِرُؤْيَا كَاذِبَةٍ وَعِرَافَةٍ وَبَاطِلٍ وَمَكْرِ قُلُوبِهِمْ هُمْ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ لَكُمْ». | ١٤ 14 |
Then the LORD said unto me: 'The prophets prophesy lies in My name; I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spoke I unto them; they prophesy unto you a lying vision, and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their own heart.
| «لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ بِٱسْمِي وَأَنَا لَمْ أُرْسِلْهُمْ، وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ: لَا يَكُونُ سَيْفٌ وَلَا جُوعٌ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ: «بِٱلسَّيْفِ وَٱلْجُوعِ يَفْنَى أُولَئِكَ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءُ. | ١٥ 15 |
Therefore thus saith the LORD: As for the prophets that prophesy in My name, and I sent them not, yet they say: Sword and famine shall not be in this land, by sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed;
| وَٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلَّذِي يَتَنَبَّأُونَ لَهُ يَكُونُ مَطْرُوحًا فِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ مِنْ جَرَى ٱلْجُوعِ وَٱلسَّيْفِ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَدْفِنُهُمْ هُمْ وَنِسَاؤُهُمْ وَبَنَوُهُمْ وَبَنَاتُهُمْ، وَأَسْكُبُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَرَّهُمْ. | ١٦ 16 |
and the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters; for I will pour their evil upon them.'
| وَتَقُولُ لَهُمْ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَةَ: لِتَذْرِفْ عَيْنَايَ دُمُوعًا لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا وَلَا تَكُفَّا، لِأَنَّ ٱلْعَذْرَاءَ بِنْتَ شَعْبِي سُحِقَتْ سَحْقًا عَظِيمًا، بِضَرْبَةٍ مُوجِعَةٍ جِدًّا. | ١٧ 17 |
And thou shalt say this word unto them: Let mine eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease; for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous blow.
| إِذَا خَرَجْتُ إِلَى ٱلْحَقْلِ، فَإِذَا ٱلْقَتْلَى بِٱلسَّيْفِ. وَإِذَا دَخَلْتُ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ، فَإِذَا ٱلْمَرْضَى بِٱلْجُوعِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلنَّبِيَّ وَٱلْكَاهِنَ كِلَيْهِمَا يَطُوفَانِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَا يَعْرِفَانِ شَيْئًا». | ١٨ 18 |
If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword! And if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine! For both the prophet and the priest are gone about to a land, and knew it not.
| هَلْ رَفَضْتَ يَهُوذَا رَفْضًا، أَوْ كَرِهَتْ نَفْسُكَ صِهْيَوْنَ؟ لِمَاذَا ضَرَبْتَنَا وَلَا شِفَاءَ لَنَا؟ ٱنْتَظَرْنَا ٱلسَّلَامَ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ خَيْرٌ، وَزَمَانَ ٱلشِّفَاءِ فَإِذَا رُعْبٌ. | ١٩ 19 |
Hast Thou utterly rejected Judah? Hath Thy soul loathed Zion? Why hast Thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of healing, and behold terror!
| قَدْ عَرَفْنَا يَارَبُّ شَرَّنَا، إِثْمَ آبَائِنَا، لِأَنَّنَا قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا إِلَيْكَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
We acknowledge, O LORD, our wickedness, even the iniquity of our fathers; for we have sinned against Thee.
| لَا تَرْفُضْ لِأَجْلِ ٱسْمِكَ. لَا تَهِنْ كُرْسِيَّ مَجْدِكَ. اُذْكُرْ. لَا تَنْقُضْ عَهْدَكَ مَعَنَا. | ٢١ 21 |
Do not contemn us, for Thy name's sake, do not dishonour the throne of Thy glory; remember, break not Thy covenant with us.
| هَلْ يُوجَدُ فِي أَبَاطِيلِ ٱلْأُمَمِ مَنْ يُمْطِرُ، أَوْ هَلْ تُعْطِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ وَابِلًا؟ أَمَا أَنْتَ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا؟ فَنَرْجُوكَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ صَنَعْتَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Are there any among the vanities of the nations that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? Art not Thou He, O LORD our God, and do we not wait for Thee? For Thou hast made all these things.
