إِرْمِيَا 5
| «طُوفُوا فِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَٱنْظُرُوا، وَٱعْرِفُوا وَفَتِّشُوا فِي سَاحَاتِهَا، هَلْ تَجِدُونَ إِنْسَانًا أَوْ يُوجَدُ عَامِلٌ بِٱلْعَدْلِ طَالِبُ ٱلْحَقِّ، فَأَصْفَحَ عَنْهَا؟ | ١ 1 |
Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in its broad places, if ye can find a man, if there is [any] that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.
| وَإِنْ قَالُوا: حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ. فَإِنَّهُمْ يَحْلِفُونَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ!» | ٢ 2 |
And though they say, The LORD liveth; surely they swear falsely.
| يَارَبُّ، أَلَيْسَتْ عَيْنَاكَ عَلَى ٱلْحَقِّ؟ ضَرَبْتَهُمْ فَلَمْ يَتَوَجَّعُوا. أَفْنَيْتَهُمْ وَأَبَوْا قُبُولَ ٱلتَّأْدِيبِ. صَلَّبُوا وُجُوهَهُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ ٱلصَّخْرِ. أَبَوْا ٱلرُّجُوعَ. | ٣ 3 |
O LORD, [are] not thy eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, [but] they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.
| أَمَّا أَنَا فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّمَا هُمْ مَسَاكِينُ. قَدْ جَهِلُوا لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا طَرِيقَ ٱلرَّبِّ، قَضَاءَ إِلَهِهِمْ. | ٤ 4 |
Therefore I said, Surely these [are] poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of the LORD, [nor] the judgment of their God.
| أَنْطَلِقُ إِلَى ٱلْعُظَمَاءِ وَأُكَلِّمُهُمْ لِأَنَّهُمْ عَرَفُوا طَرِيقَ ٱلرَّبِّ، قَضَاءَ إِلَهِهِمْ. أَمَّا هُمْ فَقَدْ كَسَرُوا ٱلنِّيرَ جَمِيعًا وَقَطَعُوا ٱلرُّبُطَ. | ٥ 5 |
I will go to the great men, and will speak to them; for they have known the way of the LORD, [and] the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, [and] burst the bonds.
| مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ يَضْرِبُهُمُ ٱلْأَسَدُ مِنَ ٱلْوَعْرِ. ذِئْبُ ٱلْمَسَاءِ يُهْلِكُهُمْ. يَكْمُنُ ٱلنَّمِرُ حَوْلَ مُدُنِهِمْ. كُلُّ مَنْ خَرَجَ مِنْهَا يُفْتَرَسُ لِأَنَّ ذُنُوبَهُمْ كَثُرَتْ. تَعَاظَمَتْ مَعَاصِيهِمْ! | ٦ 6 |
Wherefore a lion from the forest shall slay them, [and] a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, [and] their backslidings are increased.
| «كَيْفَ أَصْفَحُ لَكِ عَنْ هَذِهِ؟ بَنُوكِ تَرَكُونِي وَحَلَفُوا بِمَا لَيْسَتْ آلِهَةً. وَلَمَّا أَشْبَعْتُهُمْ زَنَوْا، وَفِي بَيْتِ زَانِيَةٍ تَزَاحَمُوا. | ٧ 7 |
How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by [them that are] no gods: when I had fed them to the full, then they committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots' houses.
| صَارُوا حُصُنًا مَعْلُوفَةً سَائِبَةً. صَهَلُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى ٱمْرَأَةِ صَاحِبِهِ. | ٨ 8 |
They were [as] fed horses in the morning: every one neighed after his neighbor's wife.
| أَمَا أُعَاقِبُ عَلَى هَذَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَوَ مَا تَنْتَقِمُ نَفْسِي مِنْ أُمَّةٍ كَهَذِهِ؟ | ٩ 9 |
Shall I not visit for these [things]? saith the LORD: and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
| «اِصْعَدُوا عَلَى أَسْوَارِهَا وَٱخْرِبُوا وَلَكِنْ لَا تُفْنُوهَا. اِنْزِعُوا أَفْنَانَهَا لِأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٠ 10 |
Go ye up upon her walls, and destroy; but make not a full end: take away her battlements; for they [are] not the LORD'S.
| لِأَنَّهُ خِيَانَةً خَانَنِي بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَيْتُ يَهُوذَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١١ 11 |
For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me, saith the LORD.
| جَحَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالُوا: لَيْسَ هُوَ، وَلَا يَأْتِي عَلَيْنَا شَرٌّ، وَلَا نَرَى سَيْفًا وَلَا جُوعًا، | ١٢ 12 |
They have belied the LORD, and said, [It is] not he; neither shall evil come upon us; neither shall we see sword nor famine:
| وَٱلْأَنْبِيَاءُ يَصِيرُونَ رِيحًا، وَٱلْكَلِمَةُ لَيْسَتْ فِيهِمْ. هَكَذَا يُصْنَعُ بِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
And the prophets shall become wind, and the word [is] not in them: thus shall it be done to them.
| لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ ٱلْجُنُودِ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ تَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِهَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَةِ، هَأَنَذَا جَاعِلٌ كَلَامِي فِي فَمِكَ نَارًا، وَهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ حَطَبًا، فَتَأْكُلُهُمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, Behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.
| هَأَنَذَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكُمْ أُمَّةً مِنْ بُعْدٍ يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. أُمَّةً قَوِيَّةً. أُمَّةً مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ. أُمَّةً لَا تَعْرِفُ لِسَانَهَا وَلَا تَفْهَمُ مَا تَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Lo, I will bring a nation upon you from far, O house of Israel, saith the LORD: it [is] a mighty nation, it [is] an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.
| جُعْبَتُهُمْ كَقَبْرٍ مَفْتُوحٍ. كُلُّهُمْ جَبَابِرَةٌ. | ١٦ 16 |
Their quiver [is] as an open sepulcher, they [are] all mighty men.
| فَيَأْكُلُونَ حَصَادَكَ وَخُبْزَكَ ٱلَّذِي يَأْكُلُهُ بَنُوكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ. يَأْكُلُونَ غَنَمَكَ وَبَقَرَكَ. يَأْكُلُونَ جَفْنَتَكَ وَتِينَكَ. يُهْلِكُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ مُدُنَكَ ٱلْحَصِينَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ مُتَّكِلٌ عَلَيْهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
And they shall eat up thy harvest, and thy bread, [which] thy sons and thy daughters should eat: they shall eat up thy flocks and thy herds: they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig-trees: they shall impoverish with the sword thy fortified cities, in which thou hast trusted.
| وَأَيْضًا فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لَا أُفْنِيكُمْ. | ١٨ 18 |
Nevertheless in those days, saith the LORD, I will not make a full end with you.
| «وَيَكُونُ حِينَ تَقُولُونَ: لِمَاذَا صَنَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا بِنَا كُلَّ هَذِهِ؟ تَقُولُ لَهُمْ: كَمَا أَنَّكُمْ تَرَكْتُمُونِي وَعَبَدْتُمْ آلِهَةً غَرِيبَةً فِي أَرْضِكُمْ، هَكَذَا تَعْبُدُونَ ٱلْغُرَبَاءَ فِي أَرْضٍ لَيْسَتْ لَكُمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Why doeth the LORD our God all these [things] to us? then shalt thou answer them, As ye have forsaken me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land [that is] not yours.
| أَخْبِرُوا بِهَذَا فِي بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ وَأَسْمِعُوا بِهِ فِي يَهُوذَا قَائِلِينَ: | ٢٠ 20 |
Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,
| اِسْمَعْ هَذَا أَيُّهَا ٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلْجَاهِلُ وَٱلْعَدِيمُ ٱلْفَهْمِ، ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ وَلَا يُبْصِرُونَ. لَهُمْ آذَانٌ وَلَا يَسْمَعُونَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; who have eyes, and see not; who have ears, and hear not:
| أَإِيَّايَ لَا تَخْشَوْنَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَوَلَا تَرْتَعِدُونَ مِنْ وَجْهِي؟ أَنَا ٱلَّذِي وَضَعْتُ ٱلرَّمْلَ تُخُومًا لِلْبَحْرِ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً لَا يَتَعَدَّاهَا، فَتَتَلَاطَمُ وَلَا تَسْتَطِيعُ، وَتَعِجُّ أَمْوَاجُهُ وَلَا تَتَجَاوَزُهَا. | ٢٢ 22 |
Fear ye not me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand [for] the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though its waves toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?
| وَصَارَ لِهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ قَلْبٌ عَاصٍ وَمُتَمَرِّدٌ. عَصَوْا وَمَضَوْا. | ٢٣ 23 |
But this people have a revolting and a rebellious heart; they have revolted and gone.
| وَلَمْ يَقُولُوا بِقُلُوبِهِمْ: لِنَخَفِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا ٱلَّذِي يُعْطِي ٱلْمَطَرَ ٱلْمُبَكِّرَ وَٱلْمُتَأَخِّرَ فِي وَقْتِهِ. يَحْفَظُ لَنَا أَسَابِيعَ ٱلْحَصَادِ ٱلْمَفْرُوضَةَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the LORD our God, that giveth rain, both the former and the latter, in its season: he reserveth to us the appointed weeks of harvest.
| «آثَامُكُمْ عَكَسَتْ هَذِهِ، وَخَطَايَاكُمْ مَنَعَتِ ٱلْخَيْرَ عَنْكُمْ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Your iniquities have turned away these [things], and your sins have withheld good [things] from you.
| لِأَنَّهُ وُجِدَ فِي شَعْبِي أَشْرَارٌ يَرْصُدُونَ كَمُنْحَنٍ مِنَ ٱلْقَانِصِينَ، يَنْصِبُونَ أَشْرَاكًا يُمْسِكُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
For among my people are found wicked [men]: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men.
| مِثْلَ قَفَصٍ مَلْآنٍ طُيُورًا هَكَذَا بُيُوتُهُمْ مَلْآنَةٌ مَكْرًا. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ عَظُمُوا وَٱسْتَغْنَوْا. | ٢٧ 27 |
As a cage is full of birds, so [are] their houses full of deceit: therefore they have become great, and have grown rich.
| سَمِنُوا. لَمَعُوا. أَيْضًا تَجَاوَزُوا فِي أُمُورِ ٱلشَّرِّ. لَمْ يَقْضُوا فِي ٱلدَّعْوَى، دَعْوَى ٱلْيَتِيمِ. وَقَدْ نَجَحُوا. وَبِحَقِّ ٱلْمَسَاكِينِ لَمْ يَقْضُوا. | ٢٨ 28 |
They have become fat, they shine: yes, they surpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.
| أَفَلِأَجْلِ هَذِهِ لَا أُعَاقِبُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَوَلَا تَنْتَقِمُ نَفْسِي مِنْ أُمَّةٍ كَهَذِهِ؟ | ٢٩ 29 |
Shall I not visit for these [things]? saith the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
| «صَارَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ دَهَشٌ وَقَشْعَرِيرَةٌ. | ٣٠ 30 |
A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land;
| اَلْأَنْبِيَاءُ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ، وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ تَحْكُمُ عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ، وَشَعْبِي هَكَذَا أَحَبَّ. وَمَاذَا تَعْمَلُونَ فِي آخِرَتِهَا؟ | ٣١ 31 |
The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love [to have it] so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?
