إِرْمِيَا 9

١ 1 يَا لَيْتَ رَأْسِي مَاءٌ، وَعَيْنَيَّ يَنْبُوعُ دُمُوعٍ، فَأَبْكِيَ نَهَارًا وَلَيْلًا قَتْلَى بِنْتِ شَعْبِي.

Who? will he give head my [was] water and eye my [was] a fountain of tear[s] so I may bewail by day and night [those] slain of [the] daughter of people my.

٢ 2 يَا لَيْتَ لِي فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ مَبِيتَ مُسَافِرِينَ، فَأَتْرُكَ شَعْبِي وَأَنْطَلِقَ مِنْ عِنْدِهِمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ جَمِيعًا زُنَاةٌ، جَمَاعَةُ خَائِنِينَ.

Who? will he give me in the wilderness a lodging place of travelers and I will leave people my and I will go from with them for all of them [are] adulterers an assembly of treacherous [people].

٣ 3 «يَمُدُّونَ أَلْسِنَتَهُمْ كَقِسِيِّهِمْ لِلْكَذِبِ. لَا لِلْحَقِّ قَوُوا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. لِأَنَّهُمْ خَرَجُوا مِنْ شَرٍّ إِلَى شَرٍّ، وَإِيَّايَ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

And they have bent tongue their bow of their falsehood and not to faithfulness they are strong in the land for from evil to evil - they have gone out and me not they know [the] utterance of Yahweh.

٤ 4 اِحْتَرِزُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ أَخٍ لَا تَتَّكِلُوا، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ أَخٍ يَعْقِبُ عَقِبًا، وَكُلَّ صَاحِبٍ يَسْعَى فِي ٱلْوِشَايَةِ.

Each from neighbor his take heed and on any brother may not you rely for every brother certainly he cheats and every neighbor a slanderer he goes about.

٥ 5 وَيَخْتِلُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ صَاحِبَهُ وَلَا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِٱلْحَقِّ. عَلَّمُوا أَلْسِنَتَهُمُ ٱلتَّكَلُّمَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ، وَتَعِبُوا فِي ٱلِٱفْتِرَاءِ.

And each neighbor his they deceive and truth not they speak they have taught tongue their to speak falsehood to iniquire they are weary.

٦ 6 مَسْكَنُكَ فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْمَكْرِ. بِٱلْمَكْرِ أَبَوْا أَنْ يَعْرِفُونِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Dwelling you in among deceit on deceit they have refused to know me [the] utterance of Yahweh.

٧ 7 «لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: هَأَنَذَا أُنَقِّيهِمْ وَأَمْتَحِنُهُمْ. لِأَنِّي مَاذَا أَعْمَلُ مِنْ أَجْلِ بِنْتِ شَعْبِي؟

Therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts here I [am] about to refine them and I will test them for how? will I act because of [the] daughter of people my.

٨ 8 لِسَانُهُمْ سَهْمٌ قَتَّالٌ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِٱلْغِشِّ. بِفَمِهِ يُكَلِّمُ صَاحِبَهُ بِسَلَامٍ، وَفِي قَلْبِهِ يَضَعُ لَهُ كَمِينًا.

[is] an arrow (Beaten *Q(K)*) tongue their deceit it speaks with mouth his peace with neighbor his someone speaks and in inner being his he sets ambush his.

٩ 9 أَفَمَا أُعَاقِبُهُمْ عَلَى هَذِهِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَمْ لَا تَنْتَقِمُ نَفْسِي مِنْ أُمَّةٍ كَهَذِهِ؟».

¿ On these [things] not will I visit them [the] utterance of Yahweh or? on a nation which [is] like this [one] not will it avenge itself self my.

١٠ 10 عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ أَرْفَعُ بُكَاءً وَمَرْثَاةً، وَعَلَى مَرَاعِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ نَدْبًا، لِأَنَّهَا ٱحْتَرَقَتْ، فَلَا إِنْسَانَ عَابِرٌ وَلَا يُسْمَعُ صَوْتُ ٱلْمَاشِيَةِ. مِنْ طَيْرِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ إِلَى ٱلْبَهَائِمِ هَرَبَتْ مَضَتْ.

On the mountains I will take up weeping and wailing and on [the] pastures of [the] wilderness lamentation for they are left desolate because not anyone [who] passes through and not people hear [the] sound of livestock from [the] bird[s] of the heavens and unto animal[s] they have fled they have gone.

١١ 11 «وَأَجْعَلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ رُجَمًا وَمَأْوَى بَنَاتِ آوَى، وَمُدُنَ يَهُوذَا أَجْعَلُهَا خَرَابًا بِلَا سَاكِنٍ».

And I will make Jerusalem into heaps of stones a habitation of jackals and [the] cities of Judah I will make a waste because not inhabitant.

١٢ 12 مَنْ هُوَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلَّذِي يَفْهَمُ هَذِهِ، وَٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَهُ فَمُ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَيُخْبِرَ بِهَا؟ لِمَاذَا بَادَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَٱحْتَرَقَتْ كَبَرِّيَّةٍ بِلَا عَابِرٍ؟

Who? [is] the person wise and he may understand this and whom it has spoken [the] mouth of Yahweh to him so he may declare it concerning what? has it been destroyed the land has it become desolate? like wilderness because not [one who] passes by.

١٣ 13 فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «عَلَى تَرْكِهِمْ شَرِيعَتِي ٱلَّتِي جَعَلْتُهَا أَمَامَهُمْ، وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِصَوْتِي وَلَمْ يَسْلُكُوا بِهَا.

And he said Yahweh because have forsaken they law my which I set before them and not they have listened to voice my and not they have walked in it.

١٤ 14 بَلْ سَلَكُوا وَرَاءَ عِنَادِ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَوَرَاءَ ٱلْبَعْلِيمِ ٱلَّتِي عَلَّمَهُمْ إِيَّاهَا آبَاؤُهُمْ.

And they have walked after [the] stubbornness of own heart their and after the Baals which they taught them ancestors their.

١٥ 15 لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَأَنَذَا أُطْعِمُ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ أَفْسَنْتِينًا وَأَسْقِيهِمْ مَاءَ ٱلْعَلْقَمِ،

Therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to feed them the people this wormwood and I will give to drink them water of poison.

١٦ 16 وَأُبَدِّدُهُمْ فِي أُمَمٍ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهَا هُمْ وَلَا آبَاؤُهُمْ، وَأُطْلِقُ وَرَاءَهُمُ ٱلسَّيْفَ حَتَّى أُفْنِيَهُمْ.

And I will scatter them among the nations which not they knew they and ancestors their and I will send forth after them the sword until have made an end of I them.

١٧ 17 «هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: تَأَمَّلُوا وَٱدْعُوا ٱلنَّادِبَاتِ فَيَأْتِينَ، وَأَرْسِلُوا إِلَى ٱلْحَكِيمَاتِ فَيُقْبِلْنَ

Thus he says Yahweh of hosts consider and summon the wailing [women] and they may come and to the skillful [women] send so they may come.

١٨ 18 وَيُسْرِعْنَ وَيَرْفَعْنَ عَلَيْنَا مَرْثَاةً، فَتَذْرِفَ أَعْيُنُنَا دُمُوعًا وَتَفِيضَ أَجْفَانُنَا مَاءً.

And they may hasten and they may take up on us wailing so they may run down eyes our tear[s] and eyelids our they may flow water.

١٩ 19 لِأَنَّ صَوْتَ رِثَايَةٍ سُمِعَ مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ: كَيْفَ أُهْلِكْنَا؟ خَزِينَا جِدًّا لِأَنَّنَا تَرَكْنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ هَدَمُوا مَسَاكِنَنَا».

For a sound of wailing it has been heard from Zion how! we have been devastated we have been put to shame exceedingly for we have left [the] land for people have cast down dwellings our.

٢٠ 20 بَلِ ٱسْمَعْنَ أَيَّتُهَا ٱلنِّسَاءُ كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلْتَقْبَلْ آذَانُكُنَّ كَلِمَةَ فَمِهِ، وَعَلِّمْنَ بَنَاتِكُنَّ ٱلرِّثَايَةَ، وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ صَاحِبَتَهَا ٱلنَّدْبَ!

For hear O women [the] word of Yahweh so it may receive ear your [the] word of mouth his and teach daughters your a mourning song and every woman neighbor her a lamentation.

٢١ 21 لِأَنَّ ٱلْمَوْتَ طَلَعَ إِلَى كُوَانَا، دَخَلَ قُصُورَنَا لِيَقْطَعَ ٱلْأَطْفَالَ مِنْ خَارِجٍ، وَٱلشُّبَّانَ مِنَ ٱلسَّاحَاتِ.

For it has come up death in windows our it has come in fortresses our to cut off child[ren] from [the] street young men from [the] open places.

٢٢ 22 تَكَلَّمَ: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ: وَتَسْقُطُ جُثَّةُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ كَدِمْنَةٍ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْحَقْلِ، وَكَقَبْضَةٍ وَرَاءَ ٱلْحَاصِدِ وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَجْمَعُ!

Speak thus [the] utterance of Yahweh and it will fall [the] corpse[s] of people like dung on [the] surface of the field[s] and like cut grain from behind the reaper and there not [will be one who] gathers.

٢٣ 23 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا يَفْتَخِرَنَّ ٱلْحَكِيمُ بِحِكْمَتِهِ، وَلَا يَفْتَخِرِ ٱلْجَبَّارُ بِجَبَرُوتِهِ، وَلَا يَفْتَخِرِ ٱلْغَنِيُّ بِغِنَاهُ.

Thus - he says Yahweh may not he boast a wise [person] in wisdom his and may not he boast the mighty [person] in might his may not he boast a rich [person] in rich[es] his.

٢٤ 24 بَلْ بِهَذَا لِيَفْتَخِرَنَّ ٱلْمُفْتَخِرُ: بِأَنَّهُ يَفْهَمُ وَيَعْرِفُنِي أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلصَّانِعُ رَحْمَةً وَقَضَاءً وَعَدْلًا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنِّي بِهَذِهِ أُسَرُّ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

That except in this let him boast who [-ever] boasts he has insight and he knows me that I [am] Yahweh [who] does covenant loyalty justice and righteousness on the earth for in these things I delight [the] utterance of Yahweh.

٢٥ 25 «هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأُعَاقِبُ كُلَّ مَخْتُونٍ وَأَغْلَفَ.

Here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will visit [judgment] on every [man] circumcised in a foreskin.

٢٦ 26 مِصْرَ وَيَهُوذَا وَأَدُومَ وَبَنِي عَمُّونَ وَمُوآبَ، وَكُلَّ مَقْصُوصِي ٱلشَّعْرِ مُسْتَدِيرًا ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ ٱلْأُمَمِ غُلْفٌ، وَكُلَّ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ غُلْفُ ٱلْقُلُوبِ».

On Egypt and on Judah and on Edom and on [the] people of Ammon and on Moab and on all [those who] are cut off of [the] corner who dwell in the wilderness for all the nations [are] uncircumcised and all [the] house of Israel [are] uncircumcised of heart.
