إِرْمِيَا 51
| «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أُوقِظُ عَلَى بَابِلَ وَعَلَى ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْقَائِمِينَ عَلَيَّ رِيحًا مُهْلِكَةً. | ١ 1 |
Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, And against them that dwell in the midst of mine adversaries, A destroying wind;
| وَأُرْسِلُ إِلَى بَابِلَ مُذَرِّينَ فَيُذَرُّونَهَا وَيُفَرِّغُونَ أَرْضَهَا، لِأَنَّهُمْ يَكُونُونَ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلشَّرِّ. | ٢ 2 |
And I will send against Babylon winnowers, And they shall winnow her, and empty her land; For they shall come against her on every side.
| عَلَى ٱلنَّازِعِ فِي قَوْسِهِ، فَلْيَنْزِعِ ٱلنَّازِعُ، وَعَلَى ٱلْمُفْتَخِرِ بِدِرْعِهِ، فَلَا تُشْفِقُوا عَلَى مُنْتَخَبِيهَا، بَلْ حَرِّمُوا كُلَّ جُنْدِهَا. | ٣ 3 |
Against him that bendeth, let the archer bend his bow, And against him that lifteth himself up in his brigandine! And spare ye not her young men; Destroy ye utterly her whole host!
| فَتَسْقُطَ ٱلْقَتْلَى فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، وَٱلْمَطْعُونُونَ فِي شَوَارِعِهَا. | ٤ 4 |
Thus shall they fall down slain in the land of the Chaldaeans, And thrust through in her streets.
| لِأَنَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا لَيْسَا بِمَقْطُوعَيْنِ عَنْ إِلَهِهِمَا، عَنْ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، وَإِنْ تَكُنْ أَرْضُهُمَا مَلْآنَةً إِثْمًا عَلَى قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٥ 5 |
For Israel is not forsaken, nor Judah abandoned of his God, of Jehovah of hosts; For their land is full of guilt against the Holy One of Israel.
| ٱهْرُبُوا مِنْ وَسْطِ بَابِلَ، وَٱنْجُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ بِنَفْسِهِ. لَا تَهْلِكُوا بِذَنْبِهَا، لِأَنَّ هَذَا زَمَانُ ٱنْتِقَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ، هُوَ يُؤَدِّي لَهَا جَزَاءَهَا. | ٦ 6 |
Flee ye out of Babylon, And save ye every man his life, That ye be not cut off in her punishment! For this is the time of Jehovah's vengeance; He will render to her a recompense.
| بَابِلُ كَأْسُ ذَهَبٍ بِيَدِ ٱلرَّبِّ تُسْكِرُ كُلَّ ٱلْأَرْضِ. مِنْ خَمْرِهَا شَرِبَتِ ٱلشُّعُوبُ. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ جُنَّتِ ٱلشُّعُوبُ. | ٧ 7 |
Babylon has been a golden cup in the hand of Jehovah, That made all the earth drunken; The nations have drunken of her wine, Therefore the nations are mad.
| سَقَطَتْ بَابِلُ بَغْتَةً وَتَحَطَّمَتْ. وَلْوِلُوا عَلَيْهَا. خُذُوا بَلَسَانًا لِجُرْحِهَا لَعَلَّهَا تُشْفَى! | ٨ 8 |
Babylon is suddenly fallen, and broken; Howl ye over her; Bring ye balm for her wounds, If so be she may be healed.
| دَاوَيْنَا بَابِلَ فَلَمْ تُشْفَ. دَعُوهَا، وَلْنَذْهَبْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَرْضِهِ، لِأَنَّ قَضَاءَهَا وَصَلَ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَٱرْتَفَعَ إِلَى ٱلسَّحَابِ. | ٩ 9 |
“We would have healed Babylon, But she cannot be healed. Forsake her, and let us go every one to his own country! For her punishment reacheth to the heavens, And ascendeth even to the skies.”
| قَدْ أَخْرَجَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِرَّنَا. هَلُمَّ فَنَقُصُّ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ عَمَلَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا. | ١٠ 10 |
Jehovah hath brought forth our deliverance; Come ye, and let us declare in Zion The work of Jehovah our God.
| سُنُّوا ٱلسِّهَامَ. أَعِدُّوا ٱلْأَتْرَاسَ. قَدْ أَيْقَظَ ٱلرَّبُّ رُوحَ مُلُوكِ مَادِي، لِأَنَّ قَصْدَهُ عَلَى بَابِلَ أَنْ يُهْلِكَهَا. لِأَنَّهُ نَقْمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ، نَقْمَةُ هَيْكَلِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
Make sharp the arrows; put on the shields! Jehovah hath roused up the spirit of the kings of the Medes; For his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it; For this is the vengeance of Jehovah, The vengeance for his temple.
| عَلَى أَسْوَارِ بَابِلَ ٱرْفَعُوا ٱلرَّايَةَ. شَدِّدُوا ٱلْحِرَاسَةَ. أَقِيمُوا ٱلْحُرَّاسَ. أَعِدُّوا ٱلْكَمِينَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ قَصَدَ وَأَيْضًا فَعَلَ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ عَلَى سُكَّانِ بَابِلَ. | ١٢ 12 |
Against the walls of Babylon set up a standard, Make strong the guard, appoint the watchmen, prepare the ambush! For Jehovah deviseth and doeth that which he spake Against the inhabitants of Babylon.
| أَيَّتُهَا ٱلسَّاكِنَةُ عَلَى مِيَاهٍ كَثِيرَةٍ، ٱلْوَافِرَةُ ٱلْخَزَائِنِ، قَدْ أَتَتْ آخِرَتُكِ، كَيْلُ ٱغْتِصَابِكِ. | ١٣ 13 |
O thou that dwellest by great waters, That aboundest in treasures, Thine end is come; The measure of thy rapaciousness is full!
| قَدْ حَلَفَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ بِنَفْسِهِ: إِنِّي لَأَمْلَأَنَّكِ أُنَاسًا كَٱلْغَوْغَاءِ، فَيَرْفَعُونَ عَلَيْكِ جَلَبَةً. | ١٤ 14 |
Jehovah of hosts hath sworn by himself, [[saying, ]] Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillars, Who shall raise the war-shout against thee.
| «صَانِعُ ٱلْأَرْضِ بِقُوَّتِهِ، وَمُؤَسِّسُ ٱلْمَسْكُونَةِ بِحِكْمَتِهِ، وبِفَهْمِهِ مَدَّ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ. | ١٥ 15 |
He made the earth by his power, He established the world by his wisdom, And by his understanding he spread out the heavens.
| إِذَا أَعْطَى قَوْلًا تَكُونُ كَثْرَةُ مِيَاهٍ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، وَيُصْعِدُ ٱلسَّحَابَ مِنْ أَقَاصِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. صَنَعَ بُرُوقًا لِلْمَطَرِ، وَأَخْرَجَ ٱلرِّيحَ مِنْ خَزَائِنِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
When he uttereth his voice there is an abundance of water in the heavens; He causeth clouds to ascend from the ends of the earth; He bringeth the wind from his storehouses.
| بَلُدَ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ بِمَعْرِفَتِهِ. خَزِيَ كُلُّ صَائِغٍ مِنَ ٱلتِّمْثَالِ لِأَنَّ مَسْبُوكَهُ كَذِبٌ وَلَا رُوحٌ فِيهِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Brutish is every man who hath not this knowledge; By his images is every founder put to shame; For his molten work is deceit; There is no breath in it.
| هِيَ بَاطِلَةٌ، صَنْعَةُ ٱلْأَضَالِيلِ. فِي وَقْتِ عِقَابِهَا تَبِيدُ. | ١٨ 18 |
They are vanity, deceptive work; In the time of their punishment shall they perish.
| لَيْسَ كَهَذِهِ نَصِيبُ يَعْقُوبَ، لِأَنَّهُ مُصَوِّرُ ٱلْجَمِيعِ، وَقَضِيبُ مِيرَاثِهِ، رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ ٱسْمُهُ. | ١٩ 19 |
Not like them is he who is the portion of Jacob; He is the former of all things, And Israel is his allotted inheritance. Jehovah of hosts is his name.
| أَنْتَ لِي فَأْسٌ وَأَدَوَاتُ حَرْبٍ، فَأَسْحَقُ بِكَ ٱلْأُمَمَ، وَأُهْلِكُ بِكَ ٱلْمَمَالِكَ، | ٢٠ 20 |
Thou hast been to me my battle-hammer, My weapon of war. And with thee I broke in pieces the nations, And with thee I destroyed the kingdoms.
| وَأُكَسِّرُ بِكَ ٱلْفَرَسَ وَرَاكِبَهُ، وَأَسْحَقُ بِكَ ٱلْمَرْكَبَةَ وَرَاكِبَهَا، | ٢١ 21 |
And with thee I broke in pieces the horse and his rider, And with thee I broke in pieces the chariot and its driver.
| وَأَسْحَقُ بِكَ ٱلرَّجُلَ وَٱلْمَرْأَةَ، وَأَسْحَقُ بِكَ ٱلشَّيْخَ وَٱلْفَتَى، وَأَسْحَقُ بِكَ ٱلْغُلَامَ وَٱلْعَذْرَاءَ، | ٢٢ 22 |
With thee I broke in pieces man and woman, And with thee I broke in pieces the old and the young, And with thee I broke in pieces the young man and the maiden.
| وَأَسْحَقُ بِكَ ٱلرَّاعِيَ وَقَطِيعَهُ، وَأَسْحَقُ بِكَ ٱلْفَلَّاحَ وَفَدَّانَهُ، وَأَسْحَقُ بِكَ ٱلْوُلَاةَ وَٱلْحُكَّامَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
With thee I broke in pieces the shepherd and his flock, And with thee I broke in pieces the husbandman and his team; And with thee I broke in pieces prefects and governors.
| وَأُكَافِئُ بَابِلَ وَكُلَّ سُكَّانِ أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرِّهِمِ ٱلَّذِي فَعَلُوهُ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ، أَمَامَ عُيُونِكُمْ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٢٤ 24 |
But now before your eyes will I repay to Babylon, And to all the inhabitants of Chaldaea, All the evil which they have done in Zion, saith Jehovah.
| هَأَنَذَا عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْجَبَلُ ٱلْمُهْلِكُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، ٱلْمُهْلِكُ كُلَّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَأَمُدُّ يَدِي عَلَيْكَ وَأُدَحْرِجُكَ عَنِ ٱلصُّخُورِ، وَأَجْعَلُكَ جَبَلًا مُحْرَقًا، | ٢٥ 25 |
O thou destroying mountain, that destroyest the whole earth, Behold, I am against thee, saith Jehovah! And I will stretch out my hand against thee, And roll thee down from the rocks, And make thee a burnt mountain,
| فَلَا يَأْخُذُونَ مِنْكَ حَجَرًا لِزَاوِيَةٍ، وَلَا حَجَرًا لِأُسُسٍ، بَلْ تَكُونُ خَرَابًا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٢٦ 26 |
So that none shall take from thee a corner-stone, or a foundation-stone; But thou shalt be a perpetual desolation, saith Jehovah.
| «اِرْفَعُوا ٱلرَّايَةَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٱضْرِبُوا بِٱلْبُوقِ فِي ٱلشُّعُوبِ. قَدِّسُوا عَلَيْهَا ٱلْأُمَمَ. نَادُوا عَلَيْهَا مَمَالِكَ أَرَارَاطَ وَمِنِّي وَأَشْكَنَازَ. أَقِيمُوا عَلَيْهَا قَائِدًا. أَصْعِدُوا ٱلْخَيْلَ كَغَوْغَاءَ مُقْشَعِرَّةٍ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Set ye up a standard in the land, Sound a trumpet among the nations; Enlist the nations against Babylon, Call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz; Appoint captains against her, Cause the horses to come up like the bristled locusts!
| قَدِّسُوا عَلَيْهَا ٱلشُّعُوبَ، مُلُوكَ مَادِي، وُلَاتَهَا وَكُلَّ حُكَّامِهَا وَكُلَّ أَرْضِ سُلْطَانِهَا، | ٢٨ 28 |
Enlist ye against her the nations, The kings of the Medes, and their prefects, And all their governors, And all the lands under their dominion,
| فَتَرْتَجِفَ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَتَتَوَجَّعَ، لِأَنَّ أَفْكَارَ ٱلرَّبِّ تَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِلَ، لِيَجْعَلَ أَرْضَ بَابِلَ خَرَابًا بِلَا سَاكِنٍ. | ٢٩ 29 |
So that the earth shall tremble and quake! For the purpose of Jehovah against Babylon is to be fulfilled, To make the land of Babylon a desolation, without an inhabitant.
| كَفَّ جَبَابِرَةُ بَابِلَ عَنِ ٱلْحَرْبِ، وَجَلَسُوا فِي ٱلْحُصُونِ. نَضَبَتْ شَجَاعَتُهُمْ. صَارُوا نِسَاءً. حَرَقُوا مَسَاكِنَهَا. تَحَطَّمَتْ عَوَارِضُهَا. | ٣٠ 30 |
The mighty men of Babylon refuse to fight; They remain in their stronghold; Their strength hath failed; They have become women; Her habitations are burned; Her bars are broken.
| يَرْكُضُ عَدَّاءٌ لِلِقَاءِ عَدَّاءٍ، وَمُخْبِرٌ لِلِقَاءِ مُخْبِرٍ، لِيُخْبِرَ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ بِأَنَّ مَدِينَتَهُ قَدْ أُخِذَتْ عَنْ أقْصَى، | ٣١ 31 |
Courier runs to meet courier, And messenger to meet messenger, To make known to the king of Babylon, That his city is taken from end to end;
| وَأَنَّ ٱلْمَعَابِرَ قَدْ أُمْسِكَتْ، وَٱلْقَصَبَ أَحْرَقُوهُ بِٱلنَّارِ، وَرِجَالُ ٱلْحَرْبِ ٱضْطَرَبَتْ. | ٣٢ 32 |
That the passages are taken, That the reeds are burned with fire, And that the men of war are struck with terror.
| لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: إِنَّ بِنْتَ بَابِلَ كَبَيْدَرٍ وَقْتَ دَوْسِهِ. بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ يَأْتِي عَلَيْهَا وَقْتُ ٱلْحَصَادِ». | ٣٣ 33 |
For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon shall be like a thrashing-floor when it is thrashed; Yet a little while, and the time of harvest for her shall come.
| «أَكَلَنِي أَفْنَانِي نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ. جَعَلَنِي إِنَاءً فَارِغًا. ٱبْتَلَعَنِي كَتِنِّينٍ، وَمَلَأَ جَوْفَهُ مِنْ نِعَمِي. طَوَّحَنِي. | ٣٤ 34 |
Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, hath devoured us; He hath made an end of us; He hath made us empty vessels; He hath swallowed us up like a dragon; He hath filled his maw with our delicacies; He hath cast us out.
| ظُلْمِي وَلَحْمِي عَلَى بَابِلَ» تَقُولُ سَاكِنَةُ صِهْيَوْنَ. «وَدَمِي عَلَى سُكَّانِ أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ» تَقُولُ أُورُشَلِيمُ. | ٣٥ 35 |
“The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon!” Shall the inhabitant of Zion say; And, “My blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldaeans!” shall Jerusalem say.
| لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «هَأَنَذَا أُخَاصِمُ خُصُومَتَكِ، وَأَنْتَقِمُ نَقْمَتَكِ، وَأُنَشِّفُ بَحْرَهَا، وَأُجَفِّفُ يَنْبُوعَهَا. | ٣٦ 36 |
Therefore, thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will maintain thy cause, And take vengeance for thee; And I will dry up her sea, And make her springs dry.
| وَتَكُونُ بَابِلُ كُوَمًا، وَمَأْوَى بَنَاتِ آوَى، وَدَهَشًا وَصَفِيرًا بِلَا سَاكِنٍ. | ٣٧ 37 |
And Babylon shall become heaps, The dwelling-place of jackals, An astonishment and a hissing, Without an inhabitant.
| يُزَمْجِرُونَ مَعًا كَأَشْبَالٍ. يَزْأَرُونَ كَجِرَاءِ أُسُودٍ. | ٣٨ 38 |
Together shall they roar like lions; They shall yell like lions' whelps.
| عِنْدَ حَرَارَتِهِمْ أُعِدُّ لَهُمْ شَرَابًا وَأُسْكِرُهُمْ، لِكَيْ يَفْرَحُوا وَيَنَامُوا نَوْمًا أَبَدِيًّا، وَلَا يَسْتَيْقِظُوا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٣٩ 39 |
In their heat I will prepare them a drink, And will make them drunk, so that they shall rejoice, And then sleep an everlasting sleep, And awake no more, saith Jehovah.
| أُنَزِّلُهُمْ كَخِرَافٍ لِلذَّبْحِ وَكَكِبَاشٍ مَعَ أَعْتِدَةٍ. | ٤٠ 40 |
I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, Like rams with he-goats.
| «كَيْفَ أُخِذَتْ شِيشَكُ، وَأُمْسِكَتْ فَخْرُ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ؟ كَيْفَ صَارَتْ بَابِلُ دَهَشًا فِي ٱلشُّعُوبِ؟ | ٤١ 41 |
How is Sheshach taken! How is the praise of the whole earth fallen! How is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!
| طَلَعَ ٱلْبَحْرُ عَلَى بَابِلَ، فَتَغَطَّتْ بِكَثْرَةِ أَمْوَاجِهِ. | ٤٢ 42 |
The sea is come up over Babylon; With the roaring of its waves is she covered.
| صَارَتْ مُدُنُهَا خَرَابًا، أَرْضًا نَاشِفَةً وَقَفْرًا، أَرْضًا لَا يَسْكُنُ فِيهَا إِنْسَانٌ وَلَا يَعْبُرُ فِيهَا ٱبْنُ آدَمَ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Her cities have become a desolation, A dry land and a desert, A land in which no man dwelleth, And which no son of man passeth through.
| وَأُعَاقِبُ بِيلَ فِي بَابِلَ، وَأُخْرِجُ مِنْ فَمِهِ مَا ٱبْتَلَعَهُ، فَلَا تَجْرِي إِلَيْهِ ٱلشُّعُوبُ بَعْدُ، وَيَسْقُطُ سُورُ بَابِلَ أَيْضًا. | ٤٤ 44 |
I will punish Bel at Babylon, And bring forth from his mouth that which he hath swallowed, And the nations shall flow to him no more; Even the wall of Babylon shall fall.
| اُخْرُجُوا مِنْ وَسَطِهَا يَا شَعْبِي، وَلْيُنَجِّ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ نَفْسَهُ مِنْ حُمُوِّ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٤٥ 45 |
Go ye out of her, my people, And save ye every man his life From the fierce anger of Jehovah!
| وَلَا يَضْعُفْ قَلْبُكُمْ فَتَخَافُوا مِنَ ٱلْخَبَرِ ٱلَّذِي سُمِعَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَإِنَّهُ يَأْتِي خَبَرٌ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلسَّنَةِ، ثُمَّ بَعْدَهُ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْأُخْرَى، خَبَرٌ وَظُلْمٌ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، مُتَسَلِّطٌ عَلَى مُتَسَلِّطٍ. | ٤٦ 46 |
And let not your heart faint, And fear ye not on account of the rumors which are heard in the land, When in one year a rumor cometh, And after it in another year another rumor, And violence is in the land, Ruler against ruler.
| لِذَلِكَ هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي وَأُعَاقِبُ مَنْحُوتَاتِ بَابِلَ، فَتَخْزَى كُلُّ أَرْضِهَا وَتَسْقُطُ كُلُّ قَتْلَاهَا فِي وَسْطِهَا. | ٤٧ 47 |
Therefore, behold the days come When I will punish the graven images of Babylon, And her whole land shall be confounded; And all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
| فَتَهْتِفُ عَلَى بَابِلَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ وَٱلْأَرْضُ وَكُلُّ مَا فِيهَا، لِأَنَّ ٱلنَّاهِبِينَ يَأْتُونَ عَلَيْهَا مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٤٨ 48 |
Then the heavens shall shout over Babylon, And the earth and all that is therein; For out of the North come spoilers against her, saith Jehovah.
| كَمَا أَسْقَطَتْ بَابِلُ قَتْلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، تَسْقُطُ أَيْضًا قَتْلَى بَابِلَ فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٤٩ 49 |
As Babylon caused the slain of Israel to fall, So at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the land.
| أَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاجُونَ مِنَ ٱلسَّيْفِ ٱذْهَبُوا. لَا تَقِفُوا. ٱذْكُرُوا ٱلرَّبَّ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ، وَلْتَخْطُرْ أُورُشَلِيمُ بِبَالِكُمْ. | ٥٠ 50 |
Ye that have escaped her sword, go! Tarry not! Remember Jehovah afar off, And let Jerusalem come into your mind!
| قَدْ خَزِينَا لِأَنَّنَا قَدْ سَمِعْنَا عَارًا. غَطَّى ٱلْخَجَلُ وُجُوهَنَا لِأَنَّ ٱلْغُرَبَاءَ قَدْ دَخَلُوا مَقَادِسَ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٥١ 51 |
We have been confounded, because we have heard reproach; Shame hath covered our faces, For strangers have come into the sanctuaries of the house of Jehovah.
| لِذَلِكَ هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأُعَاقِبُ مَنْحُوتَاتِهَا، وَيَتَنَهَّدُ ٱلْجَرْحَى فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِهَا. | ٥٢ 52 |
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, When I will punish her graven images, And through all her land shall the wounded groan.
| فَلَوْ صَعِدَتْ بَابِلُ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، وَلَوْ حَصَّنَتْ عَلْيَاءَ عِزِّهَا، فَمِنْ عِنْدِي يَأْتِي عَلَيْهَا ٱلنَّاهِبُونَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٥٣ 53 |
Though Babylon should mount up to the heavens, And make inaccessible the height of her strength, Yet from me shall spoilers come upon her, saith Jehovah.
| «صَوْتُ صُرَاخٍ مِنْ بَابِلَ وَٱنْحِطَامٌ عَظِيمٌ مِنْ أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، | ٥٤ 54 |
Hark! a cry from Babylon, Of great destruction from the land of the Chaldaeans!
| لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مُخْرِبٌ بَابِلَ وَقَدْ أَبَادَ مِنْهَا ٱلصَّوْتَ ٱلْعَظِيمَ، وَقَدْ عَجَّتْ أَمْوَاجُهُمْ كَمِيَاهٍ كَثِيرَةٍ وَأُطْلِقَ ضَجِيجُ صَوْتِهِمْ. | ٥٥ 55 |
For Jehovah destroyeth Babylon, And bringeth to silence her loud tumult; Their waves roar like great waters; Their tumultuous noise resounds.
| لِأَنَّهُ جَاءَ عَلَيْهَا، عَلَى بَابِلَ، ٱلْمُخْرِبُ، وَأُخِذَ جَبَابِرَتُهَا، وَتَحَطَّمَتْ قِسِيُّهُمْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهُ مُجَازَاةٍ يُكَافِئُ مُكَافَأَةً. | ٥٦ 56 |
For the spoiler is come upon her, upon Babylon; And their mighty men are taken, And all their bows are broken; For Jehovah is a God of retribution; He will surely requite.
| وَأُسْكِرُ رُؤَسَاءَهَا وَحُكَمَاءَهَا وَوُلَاتَهَا وَحُكَّامَهَا وَأَبْطَالَهَا فَيَنَامُونَ نَوْمًا أَبَدِيًّا، وَلَا يَسْتَيْقِظُونَ، يَقُولُ ٱلْمَلِكُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ ٱسْمُهُ. | ٥٧ 57 |
And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, Her prefects, and her governors, and her mighty men; And they shall sleep an everlasting sleep, And shall no more awake, saith the King, Whose name is Jehovah of hosts.
| هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: إِنَّ أَسْوَارَ بَابِلَ ٱلْعَرِيضَةَ تُدَمَّرُ تَدْمِيرًا، وَأَبْوَابُهَا ٱلشَّامِخَةَ تُحْرَقُ بِٱلنَّارِ، فَتَتْعَبُ ٱلشُّعُوبُ لِلْبَاطِلِ، وَٱلْقَبَائِلُ لِلنَّارِ حَتَّى تَعْيَا». | ٥٨ 58 |
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: The broad walls of Babylon shall be razed to the foundations, And her high gates shall be burned with fire; So that nations shall have labored for naught, And kingdoms have wearied themselves for fire.
| اَلْأَمْرُ ٱلَّذِي أَوْصَى بِهِ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ سَرَايَا بْنَ نِيرِيَّا بْنِ مَحْسِيَّا، عِنْدَ ذَهَابِهِ مَعَ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا إِلَى بَابِلَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلرَّابِعَةِ لِمُلْكِهِ، وَكَانَ سَرَايَا رَئِيسَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، | ٥٩ 59 |
The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah, the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah, the king of Judah, into Babylon, in the fourth year of his reign. This Seraiah was chief chamberlain.
| فَكَتَبَ إِرْمِيَا كُلَّ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلْآتِي عَلَى بَابِلَ فِي سِفْرٍ وَاحِدٍ، كُلَّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلْمَكْتُوبِ عَلَى بَابِلَ، | ٦٠ 60 |
And Jeremiah wrote all the evil that was to come upon Babylon in one book, all these words that are written concerning Babylon.
| وَقَالَ إِرْمِيَا لِسَرَايَا: «إِذَا دَخَلْتَ إِلَى بَابِلَ وَنَظَرْتَ وَقَرَأْتَ كُلَّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ، | ٦١ 61 |
And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, When thou comest to Babylon, see that thou read all these words,
| فَقُلْ: أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ قَدْ تَكَلَّمْتَ عَلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ لِتَقْرِضَهُ حَتَّى لَا يَكُونَ فِيهِ سَاكِنٌ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ إِلَى ٱلْبَهَائِمِ، بَلْ يَكُونُ خِرَبًا أَبَدِيَّةً. | ٦٢ 62 |
and say, O Jehovah, thou hast spoken against this place to destroy it, so that none shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but that it shall remain desolate forever!
| وَيَكُونُ إِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنْ قِرَاءَةِ هَذَا ٱلسِّفْرِ أَنَّكَ تَرْبُطُ بِهِ حَجَرًا وَتَطْرَحُهُ إِلَى وَسْطِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ | ٦٣ 63 |
And when thou hast made an end of reading this book, bind a stone upon it, and cast it into the midst of the Euphrates,
| وَتَقُولُ: هَكَذَا تَغْرَقُ بَابِلُ وَلَا تَقُومُ، مِنَ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي أَنَا جَالِبُهُ عَلَيْهَا وَيَعْيَوْنَ». إِلَى هُنَا كَلَامُ إِرْمِيَا. | ٦٤ 64 |
and say: So shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise again from the evil which I bring upon her. And they shall utterly fail. Thus far the words of Jeremiah.
