إِرْمِيَا 5
| «طُوفُوا فِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَٱنْظُرُوا، وَٱعْرِفُوا وَفَتِّشُوا فِي سَاحَاتِهَا، هَلْ تَجِدُونَ إِنْسَانًا أَوْ يُوجَدُ عَامِلٌ بِٱلْعَدْلِ طَالِبُ ٱلْحَقِّ، فَأَصْفَحَ عَنْهَا؟ | ١ 1 |
Go to and fro in streets of Jerusalem, And see, I pray you, and know, And seek in her broad places, if ye find a man, If there be one doing judgment, seeking stedfastness — Then am I propitious to her.
| وَإِنْ قَالُوا: حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ. فَإِنَّهُمْ يَحْلِفُونَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ!» | ٢ 2 |
And if they say, 'Jehovah liveth,' Surely to a falsehood they swear.
| يَارَبُّ، أَلَيْسَتْ عَيْنَاكَ عَلَى ٱلْحَقِّ؟ ضَرَبْتَهُمْ فَلَمْ يَتَوَجَّعُوا. أَفْنَيْتَهُمْ وَأَبَوْا قُبُولَ ٱلتَّأْدِيبِ. صَلَّبُوا وُجُوهَهُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ ٱلصَّخْرِ. أَبَوْا ٱلرُّجُوعَ. | ٣ 3 |
Jehovah, Thine eyes, are they not on stedfastness? Thou hast smitten them, and they have not grieved, Thou hast consumed them, They have refused to receive instruction, They made their faces harder than a rock, They have refused to turn back.
| أَمَّا أَنَا فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّمَا هُمْ مَسَاكِينُ. قَدْ جَهِلُوا لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا طَرِيقَ ٱلرَّبِّ، قَضَاءَ إِلَهِهِمْ. | ٤ 4 |
And I — I said, 'Surely these [are] poor, They have been foolish, For they have not known the way of Jehovah, 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 get me to the great, and I speak with them, For they have known the way of Jehovah, The judgment of their God.' Surely they together have broken the yoke, They have drawn away the bands.
| 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 |
Therefore smitten them hath a lion out of the forest, A wolf of the deserts doth spoil them, A leopard is watching over their cities, Every one who is going out of them is torn, For many have been their transgressions, Mighty have been their backslidings.
| «كَيْفَ أَصْفَحُ لَكِ عَنْ هَذِهِ؟ بَنُوكِ تَرَكُونِي وَحَلَفُوا بِمَا لَيْسَتْ آلِهَةً. وَلَمَّا أَشْبَعْتُهُمْ زَنَوْا، وَفِي بَيْتِ زَانِيَةٍ تَزَاحَمُوا. | ٧ 7 |
For this I am not propitious to thee, Thy sons have forsaken Me, And are satisfied by that which is not god, I satisfy them, and they commit adultery, And at the house of a harlot They gather themselves together.
| صَارُوا حُصُنًا مَعْلُوفَةً سَائِبَةً. صَهَلُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى ٱمْرَأَةِ صَاحِبِهِ. | ٨ 8 |
Fed horses — they have been early risers, Each to the wife of his neighbour they neigh.
| أَمَا أُعَاقِبُ عَلَى هَذَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَوَ مَا تَنْتَقِمُ نَفْسِي مِنْ أُمَّةٍ كَهَذِهِ؟ | ٩ 9 |
For these do I not lay a charge? An affirmation of Jehovah, And on a nation such as this, Doth not My soul avenge itself?
| «اِصْعَدُوا عَلَى أَسْوَارِهَا وَٱخْرِبُوا وَلَكِنْ لَا تُفْنُوهَا. اِنْزِعُوا أَفْنَانَهَا لِأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٠ 10 |
Go ye up on her walls, and destroy, And a completion make not, Turn aside her branches, for they [are] not Jehovah's,
| لِأَنَّهُ خِيَانَةً خَانَنِي بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَيْتُ يَهُوذَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١١ 11 |
For dealt treacherously against Me have the house of Israel, And the house of Judah, an affirmation of Jehovah.
| جَحَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالُوا: لَيْسَ هُوَ، وَلَا يَأْتِي عَلَيْنَا شَرٌّ، وَلَا نَرَى سَيْفًا وَلَا جُوعًا، | ١٢ 12 |
They have lied against Jehovah, And they say, '[It is] not He, Nor come in against us doth evil, Yea, sword and famine we do not see.
| وَٱلْأَنْبِيَاءُ يَصِيرُونَ رِيحًا، وَٱلْكَلِمَةُ لَيْسَتْ فِيهِمْ. هَكَذَا يُصْنَعُ بِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
And the prophets become wind, And the word is not in them,' — thus it is done by 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 |
Therefore, thus said Jehovah, God of Hosts, Because of your speaking this word, Lo, I am making My words in thy mouth become fire, And this people wood, and it hath devoured 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 am bringing against you a nation from afar, O house of Israel, an affirmation of Jehovah, A nation — strong it [is], a nation — from of old it [is], A nation — thou knowest not its tongue, Nor understandest what it speaketh.
| جُعْبَتُهُمْ كَقَبْرٍ مَفْتُوحٍ. كُلُّهُمْ جَبَابِرَةٌ. | ١٦ 16 |
Its quiver [is] as an open sepulchre, All of them — mighty ones.
| فَيَأْكُلُونَ حَصَادَكَ وَخُبْزَكَ ٱلَّذِي يَأْكُلُهُ بَنُوكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ. يَأْكُلُونَ غَنَمَكَ وَبَقَرَكَ. يَأْكُلُونَ جَفْنَتَكَ وَتِينَكَ. يُهْلِكُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ مُدُنَكَ ٱلْحَصِينَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ مُتَّكِلٌ عَلَيْهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
And it hath consumed thy harvest and thy bread, They consume thy sons, and thy daughters, It consumeth thy flock, and thy herd, It consumeth thy vine, and thy fig-tree, It maketh poor thy fenced cities, In which thou art trusting — by the sword.
| وَأَيْضًا فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لَا أُفْنِيكُمْ. | ١٨ 18 |
And even in those days, an affirmation of Jehovah, I do not make you a completion.
| «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 hath come to pass, when ye say, 'For what hath Jehovah our God done to us all these?' That thou hast said unto them, 'As ye have forsaken Me, And serve the gods of a foreigner in your land, So do ye serve strangers in a land not yours.
| أَخْبِرُوا بِهَذَا فِي بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ وَأَسْمِعُوا بِهِ فِي يَهُوذَا قَائِلِينَ: | ٢٠ 20 |
Declare ye this in the house of Jacob, And sound ye it in Judah, saying,
| اِسْمَعْ هَذَا أَيُّهَا ٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلْجَاهِلُ وَٱلْعَدِيمُ ٱلْفَهْمِ، ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ وَلَا يُبْصِرُونَ. لَهُمْ آذَانٌ وَلَا يَسْمَعُونَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Hear ye, I pray you, this, O people, foolish and without heart, Eyes they have, and they see not, Ears they have, and they 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 |
Me do ye not fear, an affirmation of Jehovah? From My presence are ye not pained? Who hath made sand the border of the sea, A limit age-during, and it passeth not over it, They shake themselves, and they are not able, Yea, sounded have its billows, and they pass not over.
| وَصَارَ لِهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ قَلْبٌ عَاصٍ وَمُتَمَرِّدٌ. عَصَوْا وَمَضَوْا. | ٢٣ 23 |
And this people hath an apostate and rebellious heart, They have turned aside, and they go on.
| وَلَمْ يَقُولُوا بِقُلُوبِهِمْ: لِنَخَفِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا ٱلَّذِي يُعْطِي ٱلْمَطَرَ ٱلْمُبَكِّرَ وَٱلْمُتَأَخِّرَ فِي وَقْتِهِ. يَحْفَظُ لَنَا أَسَابِيعَ ٱلْحَصَادِ ٱلْمَفْرُوضَةَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And they have not said in their heart, 'Let us fear, we pray you, Jehovah our God, who is giving rain, The sprinkling and the gathered, in its season, The appointed weeks of harvest He keepeth for us.'
| «آثَامُكُمْ عَكَسَتْ هَذِهِ، وَخَطَايَاكُمْ مَنَعَتِ ٱلْخَيْرَ عَنْكُمْ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Your iniquities have turned these away, And your sins have kept the good from you.
| لِأَنَّهُ وُجِدَ فِي شَعْبِي أَشْرَارٌ يَرْصُدُونَ كَمُنْحَنٍ مِنَ ٱلْقَانِصِينَ، يَنْصِبُونَ أَشْرَاكًا يُمْسِكُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
For the wicked have been found among My people. It looketh about the covering of snares, They have set up a trap — men they capture.
| مِثْلَ قَفَصٍ مَلْآنٍ طُيُورًا هَكَذَا بُيُوتُهُمْ مَلْآنَةٌ مَكْرًا. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ عَظُمُوا وَٱسْتَغْنَوْا. | ٢٧ 27 |
As a cage full of fowls, So their houses are full of deceit, Therefore they have been great, and are rich.
| سَمِنُوا. لَمَعُوا. أَيْضًا تَجَاوَزُوا فِي أُمُورِ ٱلشَّرِّ. لَمْ يَقْضُوا فِي ٱلدَّعْوَى، دَعْوَى ٱلْيَتِيمِ. وَقَدْ نَجَحُوا. وَبِحَقِّ ٱلْمَسَاكِينِ لَمْ يَقْضُوا. | ٢٨ 28 |
They have been fat, they have shone, Yea, they have overpassed the acts of the evil, Judgment they have not judged, The judgment of the fatherless — and they prosper, And the judgment of the needy they have not judged.
| أَفَلِأَجْلِ هَذِهِ لَا أُعَاقِبُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَوَلَا تَنْتَقِمُ نَفْسِي مِنْ أُمَّةٍ كَهَذِهِ؟ | ٢٩ 29 |
For these do not I inspect, an affirmation of Jehovah, On a nation such as this, Doth not My soul avenge itself?
| «صَارَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ دَهَشٌ وَقَشْعَرِيرَةٌ. | ٣٠ 30 |
An astonishing and horrible thing hath been in the land.
| اَلْأَنْبِيَاءُ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ، وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ تَحْكُمُ عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ، وَشَعْبِي هَكَذَا أَحَبَّ. وَمَاذَا تَعْمَلُونَ فِي آخِرَتِهَا؟ | ٣١ 31 |
The prophets have prophesied falsely, And the priests bear rule by their means, And My people have loved [it] so, And what do they at its latter end?
