إِرْمِيَا 37
| وَمَلَكَ ٱلْمَلِكُ صِدْقِيَّا بْنُ يُوشِيَّا مَكَانَ كُنْيَاهُو بْنِ يَهُويَاقِيمَ، ٱلَّذِي مَلَّكَهُ نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ فِي أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا. | ١ 1 |
Now king Sedecias the son of Josias reigned instead of Jechonias the son of Joakim: whom Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon made king in the land of Juda.
| وَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ هُوَ وَلَا عَبِيدُهُ وَلَا شَعْبُ ٱلْأَرْضِ لِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ عَنْ يَدِ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ. | ٢ 2 |
But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land did obey the words of the Lord, that he spoke in the hand of Jeremias the prophet.
| وَأَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ صِدْقِيَّا يَهُوخَلَ بْنَ شَلَمْيَا، وَصَفَنْيَا بْنَ مَعْسِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنَ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ قَائِلًا: «صَلِّ لِأَجْلِنَا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا». | ٣ 3 |
And king Sedecias sent Juchal the son of Selemias, and Sophonias the son of Maasias the priest to Jeremias the prophet, saying: Pray to the Lord our God for us.
| وَكَانَ إِرْمِيَا يَدْخُلُ وَيَخْرُجُ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، إِذْ لَمْ يَكُونُوا قَدْ جَعَلُوهُ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلسِّجْنِ. | ٤ 4 |
Now Jeremias walked freely in the midst of the people: for they had not as yet cast him into prison.
| وَخَرَجَ جَيْشُ فِرْعَوْنَ مِنْ مِصْرَ. فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيُّونَ ٱلْمُحَاصِرُونَ أُورُشَلِيمَ بِخَبَرِهِمْ، صَعِدُوا عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ٥ 5 |
And the army of Pharao was come out of Egypt: and the Chaldeans that besieged Jerusalem, hearing these tidings, departed from Jerusalem.
| فَصَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ قَائِلَةً: | ٦ 6 |
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias the prophet, saying:
| «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَكَذَا تَقُولُونَ لِمَلِكِ يَهُوذَا ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَكُمْ إِلَيَّ لِتَسْتَشِيرُونِي: هَا إِنَّ جَيْشَ فِرْعَوْنَ ٱلْخَارِجَ إِلَيْكُمْ لِمُسَاعَدَتِكُمْ، يَرْجِعُ إِلَى أَرْضِهِ، إِلَى مِصْرَ. | ٧ 7 |
Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Thus shall you say to the king of Juda, who sent you to inquire of me: Behold the army of Pharao, which is come forth to help you, shall return into their own land, into Egypt.
| وَيَرْجِعُ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيُّونَ وَيُحَارِبُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ وَيَأْخُذُونَهَا وَيُحْرِقُونَهَا بِٱلنَّارِ. | ٨ 8 |
And the Chaldeans shall come again, and fight against this city, and take it, and burn it with fire.
| هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا تَخْدَعُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ قَائِلِينَ: إِنَّ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ سَيَذْهَبُونَ عَنَّا، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَذْهَبُونَ. | ٩ 9 |
Thus saith the Lord: Deceive not your souls, saying: The Chaldeans shall surely depart and go away from us: for they shall not go away;
| لِأَنَّكُمْ وَإِنْ ضَرَبْتُمْ كُلَّ جَيْشِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُحَارِبُونَكُمْ، وَبَقِيَ مِنْهُمْ رِجَالٌ قَدْ طُعِنُوا، فَإِنَّهُمْ يَقُومُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي خَيْمَتِهِ وَيُحْرِقُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ بِٱلنَّارِ». | ١٠ 10 |
But if you should even beat all the army of the Chaldeans that fight against you, and there should be left of them some wounded men: they shall rise up, every man from his tent, and burn this city with Are.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا أُصْعِدَ جَيْشُ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ مِنْ وَجْهِ جَيْشِ فِرْعَوْنَ، | ١١ 11 |
Now when the army of the Chaldeans was gone away from Jerusalem, because of Pharao’s army,
| أَنَّ إِرْمِيَا خَرَجَ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيَنْطَلِقَ إِلَى أَرْضِ بَنْيَامِينَ لِيَنْسَابَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Jeremias went forth out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin: and to divide a possession there in the presence of the citizens.
| وَفِيمَا هُوَ فِي بَابِ بَنْيَامِينَ، إِذَا هُنَاكَ نَاظِرُ ٱلْحُرَّاسِ، ٱسْمُهُ يَرْئِيَّا بْنُ شَلَمْيَا بْنُ حَنَنِيَّا، فَقَبَضَ عَلَى إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ قَائِلًا: «إِنَّكَ تَقَعُ لِلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ». | ١٣ 13 |
And when he was come to the gate of Benjamin, the captain of the gate, who I was there in his turn, was one named Jerias, the son of Selemias, the son of Hananias: and he took hold of Jeremias the prophet, saying: Thou art fleeing to the Chaldeans.
| فَقَالَ إِرْمِيَا: «كَذِبٌ! لَا أَقَعُ لِلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ». وَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُ، فَقَبَضَ يَرْئِيَّا عَلَى إِرْمِيَا وَأَتَى بِهِ إِلَى ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ. | ١٤ 14 |
And Jeremias answered: It is not so, I am not fleeing to the Chaldeans. But he hearkened not to him: so Jerias took Jeremias and brought him to the princes.
| فَغَضِبَ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ عَلَى إِرْمِيَا، وَضَرَبُوهُ وَجَعَلُوهُ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلسِّجْنِ، فِي بَيْتِ يُونَاثَانَ ٱلْكَاتِبِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ جَعَلُوهُ بَيْتَ ٱلسِّجْنِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Wherefore the princes were angry with Jeremias, and they beat him, and cast him into the prison that was in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for he was chief over the prison.
| فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ إِرْمِيَا إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلْجُبِّ، وَإِلَى ٱلْمُقَبَّبَاتِ، أَقَامَ إِرْمِيَا هُنَاكَ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً. | ١٦ 16 |
So Jeremias went into the house of the prison, and into the dungeon: and Jeremias remained there many days.
| ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ صِدْقِيَّا وَأَخَذَهُ، وَسَأَلَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ فِي بَيْتِهِ سِرًّا وَقَالَ: «هَلْ تُوجَدُ كَلِمَةٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ؟» فَقَالَ إِرْمِيَا: «تُوجَدُ». فَقَالَ: «إِنَّكَ تُدْفَعُ لِيَدِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ». | ١٧ 17 |
Then Sedecias the king, sending, took him: and asked him secretly in his house, and said: Is there, thinkest thou, any word from the Lord? And Jeremias said: There is. And he said: Thou shalt be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ إِرْمِيَا لِلْمَلِكِ صِدْقِيَّا: «مَا هِيَ خَطِيَّتِي إِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى عَبِيدِكَ وَإِلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ، حَتَّى جَعَلْتُمُونِي فِي بَيْتِ ٱلسِّجْنِ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
And Jeremias said to king Sedecias: In what have I offended against thee, or thy servants, or thy people, that thou hast cast me into prison?
| فَأَيْنَ أَنْبِيَاؤُكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ تَنَبَّأُوا لَكُمْ قَائِلِينَ: لَا يَأْتِي مَلِكُ بَابِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ، وَلَا عَلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ؟ | ١٩ 19 |
Where are your prophets that prophesied to you, and said: The king of Babylon shall not come against you, and against this land?
| فَٱلْآنَ ٱسْمَعْ يَا سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكَ. لِيَقَعْ تَضَرُّعِي أَمَامَكَ، وَلَا تَرُدَّنِي إِلَى بَيْتِ يُونَاثَانَ ٱلْكَاتِبِ، فَلَا أَمُوتَ هُنَاكَ». | ٢٠ 20 |
Now therefore hear, I beseech thee, my lord the king: let my petition be accepted in thy sight: and send me not back into the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.
| فَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ صِدْقِيَّا أَنْ يَضَعُوا إِرْمِيَا فِي دَارِ ٱلسِّجْنِ، وَأَنْ يُعْطَى رَغِيفَ خُبْزٍ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مِنْ سُوقِ ٱلْخَبَّازِينَ، حَتَّى يَنْفُدَ كُلُّ ٱلْخُبْزِ مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. فَأَقَامَ إِرْمِيَا فِي دَارِ ٱلسِّجْنِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Then king Sedecias commanded that Jeremias should be committed into the entry of the prison: and that they should give him daily a piece of bread, beside broth, till all the bread in the city were spent: and Jeremias remained in the entry of the prison.
