< إِرْمِيَا 1 >
كَلَامُ إِرْمِيَا بْنِ حَلْقِيَّا مِنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي عَنَاثُوثَ فِي أَرْضِ بَنْيَامِينَ، | ١ 1 |
The word of God which came to Jeremias the [son] of Chelcias, of the priests, who dwelt in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:
ٱلَّذِي كَانَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَيْهِ فِي أَيَّامِ يُوشِيَّا بْنِ آمُونَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّالِثَةِ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ مُلْكِهِ. | ٢ 2 |
[accordingly] as the word of God came to him in the days of Josias son of Amos king of Juda, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
وَكَانَتْ فِي أَيَّامِ يَهُويَاقِيمَ بْنِ يُوشِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، إِلَى تَمَامِ ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْحَادِيَةِ عَشْرَةَ لِصِدْقِيَّا بْنِ يُوشِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، إِلَى سَبْيِ أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْخَامِسِ. | ٣ 3 |
And it was in the days of Joakim, son of Josias king of Juda, until the eleventh year of Sedekias king of Juda, [even] until the captivity of Jerusalem in the fifth month.
فَكَانَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَيَّ قَائِلًا: | ٤ 4 |
And the word of the Lord came to him, [saying],
«قَبْلَمَا صَوَّرْتُكَ فِي ٱلْبَطْنِ عَرَفْتُكَ، وَقَبْلَمَا خَرَجْتَ مِنَ ٱلرَّحِمِ قَدَّسْتُكَ. جَعَلْتُكَ نَبِيًّا لِلشُّعُوبِ». | ٥ 5 |
Before I formed thee in the belly, I knew thee; and before thou camest forth from the womb, I sanctified thee; I appointed thee a prophet to the nations.
فَقُلْتُ: «آهِ، يَا سَيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ أَنْ أَتَكَلَّمَ لِأَنِّي وَلَدٌ». | ٦ 6 |
And I said, O Lord, thou that art supreme Lord, behold, I know not [how] to speak, for I am a child.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «لَا تَقُلْ إِنِّي وَلَدٌ، لِأَنَّكَ إِلَى كُلِّ مَنْ أُرْسِلُكَ إِلَيْهِ تَذْهَبُ وَتَتَكَلَّمُ بِكُلِّ مَا آمُرُكَ بِهِ. | ٧ 7 |
And the Lord said to me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all to whomsoever I shall send thee, and according to all [the words] that I shall command thee, thou shalt speak.
لَا تَخَفْ مِنْ وُجُوهِهِمْ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا مَعَكَ لِأُنْقِذَكَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ٨ 8 |
Be not afraid before them: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
وَمَدَّ ٱلرَّبُّ يَدَهُ وَلَمَسَ فَمِي، وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «هَا قَدْ جَعَلْتُ كَلَامِي فِي فَمِكَ. | ٩ 9 |
And the Lord stretched forth his hand to me, and touched my mouth: and the Lord said to me, Behold, I have put my words into thy mouth.
اُنْظُرْ! قَدْ وَكَّلْتُكَ هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمَ عَلَى ٱلشُّعُوبِ وَعَلَى ٱلْمَمَالِكِ، لِتَقْلَعَ وَتَهْدِمَ وَتُهْلِكَ وَتَنْقُضَ وَتَبْنِيَ وَتَغْرِسَ». | ١٠ 10 |
Behold, I have appointed thee this day over nations and over kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to rebuild, and to plant.
ثُمَّ صَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَيَّ قَائِلًا: «مَاذَا أَنْتَ رَاءٍ يَا إِرْمِيَا؟» فَقُلْتُ: «أَنَا رَاءٍ قَضِيبَ لَوْزٍ». | ١١ 11 |
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, What seest thou? And I said, A rod of an almond tree.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «أَحْسَنْتَ ٱلرُّؤْيَةَ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا سَاهِرٌ عَلَى كَلِمَتِي لِأُجْرِيَهَا». | ١٢ 12 |
And the Lord said to me, Thou hast well seen: for I have watched over my words to perform them.
ثُمَّ صَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَيَّ ثَانِيَةً قَائِلًا: «مَاذَا أَنْتَ رَاءٍ؟» فَقُلْتُ: «إِنِّي رَاءٍ قِدْرًا مَنْفُوخَةً، وَوَجْهُهَا مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلشِّمَالِ». | ١٣ 13 |
And the word of the Lord came to me a second time, saying, What seest thou? And I said, A caldron on the fire; and the face of it is toward the north.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «مِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ يَنْفَتِحُ ٱلشَّرُّ عَلَى كُلِّ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٤ 14 |
And the Lord said to me, From the north shall flame forth evils upon all the inhabitants of the land.
لِأَنِّي هَأَنَذَا دَاعٍ كُلَّ عَشَائِرِ مَمَالِكِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، فَيَأْتُونَ وَيَضَعُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ كُرْسِيَّهُ فِي مَدْخَلِ أَبْوَابِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ أَسْوَارِهَا حَوَالَيْهَا، وَعَلَى كُلِّ مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا. | ١٥ 15 |
For, behold, I call together all the kingdoms of the earth from the north, saith the Lord; and they shall come, and shall set each one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls round about her, and against all the cities of Juda.
وَأُقِيمُ دَعْوَايَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرِّهِمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُونِي وَبَخَّرُوا لِآلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى، وَسَجَدُوا لِأَعْمَالِ أَيْدِيهِمْ. | ١٦ 16 |
And I will speak to them in judgment, concerning all their iniquity, [forasmuch] as they have forsaken me, and sacrificed to strange gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.
«أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَنَطِّقْ حَقْوَيْكَ وَقُمْ وَكَلِّمْهُمْ بِكُلِّ مَا آمُرُكَ بِهِ. لَا تَرْتَعْ مِنْ وُجُوهِهِمْ لِئَلَّا أُرِيعَكَ أَمَامَهُمْ. | ١٧ 17 |
And do thou gird up thy loins, and stand up, and speak all [the words] that I shall command thee: be not afraid of their face, neither be thou alarmed before them; for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
هَأَنَذَا قَدْ جَعَلْتُكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ مَدِينَةً حَصِينَةً وَعَمُودَ حَدِيدٍ وَأَسْوَارَ نُحَاسٍ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِمُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا وَلِرُؤَسَائِهَا وَلِكَهَنَتِهَا وَلِشَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Behold, I have made thee this day as a strong city, and as a brazen wall, strong [against] all the kings of Juda, and the princes thereof, and the people of the land.
فَيُحَارِبُونَكَ وَلَا يَقْدِرُونَ عَلَيْكَ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا مَعَكَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِأُنْقِذَكَ». | ١٩ 19 |
And they shall fight against thee; but they shall by no means prevail against thee; because I am with thee, to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
