< إِرْمِيَا 22 >
«هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱنْزِلْ إِلَى بَيْتِ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا وَتَكَلَّمْ هُنَاكَ بِهَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَةِ، | ١ 1 |
This is what the Lord has said: Go down to the house of the king of Judah and there give him this word,
وَقُلِ: ٱسْمَعْ كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَامَلِكَ يَهُوذَا ٱلْجَالِسَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ دَاوُدَ، أَنْتَ وَعَبِيدُكَ وَشَعْبُكَ ٱلدَّاخِلِينَ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَبْوَابِ. | ٢ 2 |
And say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, O king of Judah, seated on the seat of David, you and your servants and your people who come in by these doors.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَجْرُوا حَقًّا وَعَدْلًا، وَأَنْقِذُوا ٱلْمَغْصُوبَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلظَّالِمِ، وَٱلْغَرِيبَ وَٱلْيَتِيمَ وَٱلْأَرْمَلَةَ. لَا تَضْطَهِدُوا وَلَا تَظْلِمُوا، وَلَا تَسْفِكُوا دَمًا زَكِيًّا فِي هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ. | ٣ 3 |
This is what the Lord has said: Do what is right, judging uprightly, and make free from the hands of the cruel one him whose goods have been violently taken away: do no wrong and be not violent to the man from a strange country and the child without a father and the widow, and let not those who have done no wrong be put to death in this place.
لِأَنَّكُمْ إِنْ فَعَلْتُمْ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ يَدْخُلُ فِي أَبْوَابِ هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتِ مُلُوكٌ جَالِسُونَ لِدَاوُدَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ رَاكِبِينَ فِي مَرْكَبَاتٍ وَعَلَى خَيْلٍ. هُوَ وَعَبِيدُهُ وَشَعْبُهُ. | ٤ 4 |
For if you truly do this, then there will come in through the doors of this house kings seated on the seat of David, going in carriages and on horseback, he and his servants and his people
وَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِهَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَاتِ فَقَدْ أَقْسَمْتُ بِنَفْسِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنَّ هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتَ يَكُونُ خَرَابًا. | ٥ 5 |
But if you do not give ear to these words, I give you my oath by myself, says the Lord, that this house will become a waste.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ بَيْتِ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا: جِلْعَادٌ أَنْتَ لِي. رَأْسٌ مِنْ لُبْنَانَ. إِنِّي أَجْعَلُكَ بَرِّيَّةً، مُدُنًا غَيْرَ مَسْكُونَةٍ. | ٦ 6 |
For this is what the Lord has said about the family of the king of Judah: You are Gilead to me, and the top of Lebanon: but, truly, I will make you waste, with towns unpeopled.
وَأُقَدِّسُ عَلَيْكَ مُهْلِكِينَ، كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ وَآلَاتِهِ، فَيَقْطَعُونَ خِيَارَ أَرْزِكَ وَيُلْقُونَهُ فِي ٱلنَّارِ. | ٧ 7 |
And I will make ready those who will send destruction on you, everyone armed for war: by them your best cedar-trees will be cut down and put in the fire.
وَيَعْبُرُ أُمَمٌ كَثِيرَةٌ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَيَقُولُونَ ٱلْوَاحِدُ لِصَاحِبِهِ: لِمَاذَا فَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِثْلَ هَذَا لِهَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ؟ | ٨ 8 |
And nations from all sides will go past this town, and every man will say to his neighbour, Why has the Lord done such things to this great town?
فَيَقُولُونَ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوا عَهْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ وَسَجَدُوا لِآلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى وَعَبَدُوهَا. | ٩ 9 |
And they will say, Because they gave up the agreement of the Lord their God, and became worshippers and servants of other gods.
«لَا تَبْكُوا مَيْتًا وَلَا تَنْدُبُوهُ. ٱبْكُوا، ٱبْكُوا مَنْ يَمْضِي، لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَرْجِعُ بَعْدُ فَيَرَى أَرْضَ مِيلَادِهِ. | ١٠ 10 |
Let there be no weeping for the dead, and make no songs of grief for him: but make bitter weeping for him who has gone away, for he will never come back or see again the country of his birth.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ شَلُّومَ بْنِ يُوشِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، ٱلْمَالِكِ عِوَضًا عَنْ يُوشِيَّا أَبِيهِ: ٱلَّذِي خَرَجَ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ لَا يَرْجِعُ إِلَيْهِ بَعْدُ. | ١١ 11 |
For this is what the Lord has said about Shallum, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who became king in place of Josiah his father, who went out from this place: He will never come back there again:
بَلْ فِي ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي سَبُوهُ إِلَيْهِ، يَمُوتُ. وَهَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضُ لَا يَرَاهَا بَعْدُ. | ١٢ 12 |
But death will come to him in the place where they have taken him away prisoner, and he will never see this land again.
«وَيْلٌ لِمَنْ يَبْنِي بَيْتَهُ بِغَيْرِ عَدْلٍ وَعَلَالِيَهُ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ، ٱلَّذِي يَسْتَخْدِمُ صَاحِبَهُ مَجَّانًا وَلَا يُعْطِيهِ أُجْرَتَهُ. | ١٣ 13 |
A curse is on him who is building his house by wrongdoing, and his rooms by doing what is not right; who makes use of his neighbour without payment, and gives him nothing for his work;
ٱلْقَائِلُ: أَبْنِي لِنَفْسِي بَيْتًا وَسِيعًا وَعَلَالِيَ فَسِيحَةً. وَيَشُقُّ لِنَفْسِهِ كُوًى وَيَسْقُفُ بِأَرْزٍ وَيَدْهُنُ بِمُغْرَةٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
Who says, I will make a wide house for myself, and rooms of great size, and has windows cut out, and has it roofed with cedar and painted with bright red.
هَلْ تَمْلِكُ لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تُحَاذِي ٱلْأَرْزَ؟ أَمَا أَكَلَ أَبُوكَ وَشَرِبَ وَأَجْرَى حَقًّا وَعَدْلًا؟ حِينَئِذٍ كَانَ لَهُ خَيْرٌ. | ١٥ 15 |
Are you to be a king because you make more use of cedar than your father? did not your father take food and drink and do right, judging in righteousness, and then it was well for him?
قَضَى قَضَاءَ ٱلْفَقِيرِ وَٱلْمِسْكِينِ، حِينَئِذٍ كَانَ خَيْرٌ. أَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ مَعْرِفَتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ | ١٦ 16 |
He was judge in the cause of the poor and those in need; then it was well. Was not this to have knowledge of me? says the Lord.
لِأَنَّ عَيْنَيْكَ وَقَلْبَكَ لَيْسَتْ إِلَا عَلَى خَطْفِكَ، وَعَلَى ٱلدَّمِ ٱلزَّكِيِّ لِتَسْفِكَهُ، وَعَلَى ٱلِٱغْتِصَابِ وَٱلظُّلْمِ لِتَعْمَلَهُمَا. | ١٧ 17 |
But your eyes and your heart are fixed only on profit for yourself, on causing the death of him who has done no wrong, and on violent and cruel acts.
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ يَهُويَاقِيمَ بْنِ يُوشِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا: لَا يَنْدُبُونَهُ قَائِلِينَ: آهِ يَا أَخِي! أَوْ آهِ يَا أُخْتِي! لَا يَنْدُبُونَهُ قَائِلِينَ: آهِ يَا سَيِّدُ! أَوْ آهِ يَا جَلَالَهُ! | ١٨ 18 |
So this is what the Lord has said about Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah: They will make no weeping for him, saying, Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! they will make no weeping for him, saying, Ah lord! or, Ah his glory!
يُدْفَنُ دَفْنَ حِمَارٍ مَسْحُوبًا وَمَطْرُوحًا بَعِيدًا عَنْ أَبْوَابِ أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ١٩ 19 |
They will do to him what they do to the dead body of an ass; his body will be pulled out and placed on the earth outside the doors of Jerusalem.
«اِصْعَدِي عَلَى لُبْنَانَ وَٱصْرُخِي، وَفِي بَاشَانَ أَطْلِقِي صَوْتَكِ، وَٱصْرُخِي مِنْ عَبَارِيمَ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ سُحِقَ كُلُّ مُحِبِّيكِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Go up to Lebanon and give a cry; let your voice be loud in Bashan, crying out from Abarim; for all your lovers have come to destruction
تَكَلَّمْتُ إِلَيْكِ فِي رَاحَتِكِ. قُلْتِ: لَا أَسْمَعُ. هَذَا طَرِيقُكِ مُنْذُ صِبَاكِ، أَنَّكِ لَا تَسْمَعِينَ لِصَوْتِي. | ٢١ 21 |
My word came to you in the time of your well-being; but you said, I will not give ear. This has been your way from your earliest years, you did not give attention to my voice.
كُلُّ رُعَاتِكِ تَرْعَاهُمُ ٱلرِّيحُ، وَمُحِبُّوكِ يَذْهَبُونَ إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ. فَحِينَئِذٍ تَخْزَيْنَ وَتَخْجَلِينَ لِأَجْلِ كُلِّ شَرِّكِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
All the keepers of your sheep will be food for the wind, and your lovers will be taken away prisoners: truly, then you will be shamed and unhonoured because of all your evil-doing.
أَيَّتُهَا ٱلسَّاكِنَةُ فِي لُبْنَانَ ٱلْمُعَشِّشَةُ فِي ٱلْأَرْزِ، كَمْ يُشْفِقُ عَلَيْكِ عِنْدَ إِتْيَانِ ٱلْمُخَاضِ عَلَيْكِ، ٱلْوَجَعِ كَوَالِدَةٍ! | ٢٣ 23 |
O you who are living in Lebanon, making your living-place in the cedars, how greatly to be pitied will you be when pains come on you, as on a woman in childbirth!
حَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَلَوْ كَانَ كُنْيَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا خَاتِمًا عَلَى يَدِي ٱلْيُمْنَى فَإِنِّي مِنْ هُنَاكَ أَنْزِعُكَ، | ٢٤ 24 |
By my life, says the Lord, even if Coniah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, was the ring on my right hand, even from there I would have you pulled off;
وَأُسَلِّمُكَ لِيَدِ طَالِبِي نَفْسِكَ، وَلِيَدِ ٱلَّذِينَ تَخَافُ مِنْهُمْ، وَلِيَدِ نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، وَلِيَدِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And I will give you into the hands of those desiring your death, and into the hands of those whom you are fearing, even into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and into the hands of the Chaldaeans.
وَأَطْرَحُكَ وَأُمَّكَ ٱلَّتِي وَلَدَتْكَ إِلَى أَرْضٍ أُخْرَى لَمْ تُولَدَا فِيهَا، وَهُنَاكَ تَمُوتَانِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
I will send you out, and your mother who gave you birth, into another country not the land of your birth; and there death will come to you.
أَمَّا ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي يَشْتَاقَانِ إِلَى ٱلرُّجُوعِ إِلَيْهَا، فَلَا يَرْجِعَانِ إِلَيْهَا. | ٢٧ 27 |
But to the land on which their soul's desire is fixed, they will never come back.
هَلْ هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلُ كُنْيَاهُو وِعَاءُ خَزَفٍ مُهَانٍ مَكْسُورٍ، أَوْ إِنَاءٌ لَيْسَتْ فِيهِ مَسَرَّةٌ؟ لِمَاذَا طُرِحَ هُوَ وَنَسْلُهُ وَأُلْقُوا إِلَى أَرْضٍ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهَا؟ | ٢٨ 28 |
Is this man Coniah a broken vessel of no value? is he a vessel in which there is no pleasure? why are they violently sent out, he and his seed, into a land which is strange to them?
يَا أَرْضُ، يَا أَرْضُ، يَا أَرْضُ ٱسْمَعِي كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ! | ٢٩ 29 |
O earth, earth, earth, give ear to the word of the Lord!
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱكْتُبُوا هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلَ عَقِيمًا، رَجُلًا لَا يَنْجَحُ فِي أَيَّامِهِ، لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَنْجَحُ مِنْ نَسْلِهِ أَحَدٌ جَالِسًا عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ دَاوُدَ وَحَاكِمًا بَعْدُ فِي يَهُوذَا. | ٣٠ 30 |
The Lord has said, Let this man be recorded as having no children, a man who will not do well in all his life: for no man of his seed will do well, seated on the seat of the kingdom of David and ruling again in Judah.
