< إِرْمِيَا 16 >
ثُمَّ صَارَ إِلَيَّ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
The word of the LORD came also unto me, saying,
«لَا تَتَّخِذْ لِنَفْسِكَ ٱمْرَأَةً، وَلَا يَكُنْ لَكَ بَنُونَ وَلَا بَنَاتٌ فِي هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ. | ٢ 2 |
Thou shalt not take thee a wife, neither shalt thou have sons or daughters in this place.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنِ ٱلْبَنِينَ وَعَنِ ٱلْبَنَاتِ ٱلْمَوْلُودِينَ فِي هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ، وَعَنْ أُمَّهَاتِهِمِ ٱللَّوَاتِي وَلَدْنَهُمْ، وَعَنْ آبَائِهِمِ ٱلَّذِينَ وَلَدُوهُمْ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ: | ٣ 3 |
For thus saith the LORD concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that bare them, and concerning their fathers that begat them in this land;
مِيتَاتِ أَمْرَاضٍ يَمُوتُونَ. لَا يُنْدَبُونَ وَلَا يُدْفَنُونَ، بَلْ يَكُونُونَ دِمْنَةً عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَبِالسَّيْفِ وَٱلْجُوعِ يَفْنَوْنَ، وَتَكُونُ جُثَثُهُمْ أُكْلًا لِطُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَلِوُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٤ 4 |
They shall die of grievous deaths; they shall not be lamented; neither shall they be buried; [but] they shall be as dung upon the face of the earth: and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their carcases shall be meat for the fowls of heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا تَدْخُلْ بَيْتَ ٱلنَّوْحِ وَلَا تَمْضِ لِلنَّدْبِ وَلَا تُعَزِّهِمْ، لِأَنِّي نَزَعْتُ سَلَامِي مِنْ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، ٱلْإِحْسَانَ وَٱلْمَرَاحِمَ. | ٥ 5 |
For thus saith the LORD, Enter not into the house of mourning, neither go to lament nor bemoan them: for I have taken away my peace from this people, saith the LORD, [even] lovingkindness and mercies.
فَيَمُوتُ ٱلْكِبَارُ وَٱلصِّغَارُ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. لَا يُدْفَنُونَ وَلَا يَنْدُبُونَهُمْ، وَلَا يَخْمِشُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ وَلَا يَجْعَلُونَ قَرَعَةً مِنْ أَجْلِهِمْ. | ٦ 6 |
Both the great and the small shall die in this land: they shall not be buried, neither shall [men] lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them:
وَلَا يَكْسِرُونَ خُبْزًا فِي ٱلْمَنَاحَةِ لِيُعَزُّوهُمْ عَنْ مَيِّتٍ، وَلَا يَسْقُونَهُمْ كَأْسَ ٱلتَّعْزِيَةِ عَنْ أَبٍ أَوْ أُمٍّ. | ٧ 7 |
Neither shall [men] tear [themselves] for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall [men] give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.
وَلَا تَدْخُلْ بَيْتَ ٱلْوَلِيمَةِ لِتَجْلِسَ مَعَهُمْ لِلْأَكْلِ وَٱلشُّرْبِ. | ٨ 8 |
Thou shalt not also go into the house of feasting, to sit with them to eat and to drink.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَأَنَذَا مُبَطِّلٌ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ، أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِكُمْ وَفِي أَيَّامِكُمْ، صَوْتَ ٱلطَّرَبِ وَصَوْتَ ٱلْفَرَحِ، صَوْتَ ٱلْعَرِيسِ وَصَوْتَ ٱلْعَرُوسِ. | ٩ 9 |
For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.
«وَيَكُونُ حِينَ تُخْبِرُ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ بِكُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ لَكَ: لِمَاذَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْنَا بِكُلِّ هَذَا ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلْعَظِيمِ، فَمَا هُوَ ذَنْبُنَا وَمَا هِيَ خَطِيَّتُنَا ٱلَّتِي أَخْطَأْنَاهَا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا؟ | ١٠ 10 |
And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt shew this people all these words, and they shall say unto thee, Wherefore hath the LORD pronounced all this great evil against us? or what [is] our iniquity? or what [is] our sin that we have committed against the LORD our God?
فَتَقُولُ لَهُمْ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّ آبَاءَكُمْ قَدْ تَرَكُونِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَذَهَبُوا وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى وَعَبَدُوهَا وَسَجَدُوا لَهَا، وَإِيَّايَ تَرَكُوا، وَشَرِيعَتِي لَمْ يَحْفَظُوهَا. | ١١ 11 |
Then shalt thou say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, saith the LORD, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;
وَأَنْتُمْ أَسَأْتُمْ فِي عَمَلِكُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ آبَائِكُمْ. وَهَا أَنْتُمْ ذَاهِبُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ وَرَاءَ عِنَادِ قَلْبِهِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ حَتَّى لَا تَسْمَعُوا لِي. | ١٢ 12 |
And ye have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the imagination of his evil heart, that they may not hearken unto me:
فَأَطْرُدُكُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى أَرْضٍ لَمْ تَعْرِفُوهَا أَنْتُمْ وَلَا آبَاؤُكُمْ، فَتَعْبُدُونَ هُنَاكَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى نَهَارًا وَلَيْلًا حَيْثُ لَا أُعْطِيكُمْ نِعْمَةً. | ١٣ 13 |
Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye know not, [neither] ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and night; where I will not shew you favour.
«لِذَلِكَ هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَلَا يُقَالُ بَعْدُ: حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي أَصْعَدَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، | ١٤ 14 |
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
بَلْ: حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي أَصْعَدَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَمِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي ٱلَّتِي طَرَدَهُمْ إِلَيْهَا. فَأُرْجِعُهُمْ إِلَى أَرْضِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُ آبَاءَهُمْ إِيَّاهَا. | ١٥ 15 |
But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers.
«هَأَنَذَا أُرْسِلُ إِلَى جَزَّافِينَ كَثِيرِينَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، فَيَصْطَادُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أُرْسِلُ إِلَى كَثِيرِينَ مِنَ ٱلْقَانِصِينَ فَيَقْتَنِصُونَهُمْ عَنْ كُلِّ جَبَلٍ وَعَنْ كُلِّ أَكَمَةٍ وَمِنْ شُقُوقِ ٱلصُّخُورِ. | ١٦ 16 |
Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the LORD, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
لِأَنَّ عَيْنَيَّ عَلَى كُلِّ طُرُقِهِمْ. لَمْ تَسْتَتِرْ عَنْ وَجْهِي، وَلَمْ يَخْتَفِ إِثْمُهُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِ عَيْنَيَّ. | ١٧ 17 |
For mine eyes [are] upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes.
وَأُعَاقِبُ أَوَّلًا إِثْمَهُمْ وَخَطِيَّتَهُمْ ضِعْفَيْنِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ دَنَّسُوا أَرْضِي، وَبِجُثَثِ مَكْرُهَاتِهِمْ وَرَجَاسَاتِهِمْ قَدْ مَلَأُوا مِيرَاثِي». | ١٨ 18 |
And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have defiled my land, they have filled mine inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and abominable things.
يَارَبُّ، عِزِّي وَحِصْنِي وَمَلْجَإِي فِي يَوْمِ ٱلضِّيْقِ، إِلَيْكَ تَأْتِي ٱلْأُمَمُ مِنْ أَطْرَافِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَيَقُولُونَ: «إِنَّمَا وَرِثَ آبَاؤُنَا كَذِبًا وَأَبَاطِيلَ وَمَا لَا مَنْفَعَةَ فِيهِ. | ١٩ 19 |
O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and [things] wherein [there is] no profit.
هَلْ يَصْنَعُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ لِنَفْسِهِ آلِهَةً وَهِيَ لَيْسَتْ آلِهَةً؟». | ٢٠ 20 |
Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they [are] no gods?
«لِذَلِكَ هَأَنَذَا أُعَرِّفُهُمْ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَرَّةَ، أُعَرِّفُهُمْ يَدِي وَجَبَرُوتِي، فَيَعْرِفُونَ أَنَّ ٱسْمِي يَهْوَهُ. | ٢١ 21 |
Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know mine hand and my might; and they shall know that my name [is] The LORD.
