< يَشُوع 3 >
فَبَكَّرَ يَشُوعُ فِي ٱلْغَدِ وَٱرْتَحَلُوا مِنْ شِطِّيمَ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، هُوَ وَكُلُّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَبَاتُوا هُنَاكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ عَبَرُوا. | ١ 1 |
And Joshua rose early in the morning; and they removed from Shittim, and came to Jordan, he and all the children of Israel, and lodged there before they passed over.
وَكَانَ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ أَنَّ ٱلْعُرَفَاءَ جَازُوا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، | ٢ 2 |
And it came to pass after three days, that the officers went through the host;
وَأَمَرُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ قَائِلِينَ: «عِنْدَمَا تَرَوْنَ تَابُوتَ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ وَٱلْكَهَنَةَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ حَامِلِينَ إِيَّاهُ، فَٱرْتَحِلُوا مِنْ أَمَاكِنِكُمْ وَسِيرُوا وَرَاءَهُ. | ٣ 3 |
And they commanded the people, saying, When ye see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests the Levites bearing it, then ye shall remove from your place, and go after it.
وَلَكِنْ يَكُونُ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَهُ مَسَافَةٌ نَحْوُ أَلْفَيْ ذِرَاعٍ بِٱلْقِيَاسِ. لَا تَقْرُبُوا مِنْهُ لِكَيْ تَعْرِفُوا ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلَّذِي تَسِيرُونَ فِيهِ. لِأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَعْبُرُوا هَذَا ٱلطَّرِيقَ مِنْ قَبْلُ». | ٤ 4 |
Yet there shall be a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure: come not near unto it, that ye may know the way by which ye must go: for ye have not passed [this] way heretofore.
وَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِلشَّعْبِ: «تَقَدَّسُوا لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَعْمَلُ غَدًا فِي وَسَطِكُمْ عَجَائِبَ». | ٥ 5 |
And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the LORD will do wonders among you.
وَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِلْكَهَنَةِ: «ٱحْمِلُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلْعَهْدِ وَٱعْبُرُوا أَمَامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ». فَحَمَلُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلْعَهْدِ وَسَارُوا أَمَامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ٦ 6 |
And Joshua spake unto the priests, saying, Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people. And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَشُوعَ: «ٱلْيَوْمَ أَبْتَدِئُ أُعَظِّمُكَ فِي أَعْيُنِ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِكَيْ يَعْلَمُوا أَنِّي كَمَا كُنْتُ مَعَ مُوسَى أَكُونُ مَعَكَ. | ٧ 7 |
And the LORD said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, [so] I will be with thee.
وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَأْمُرِ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ حَامِلِي تَابُوتِ ٱلْعَهْدِ قَائِلًا: عِنْدَمَا تَأْتُونَ إِلَى ضَفَّةِ مِيَاهِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ تَقِفُونَ فِي ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ». | ٨ 8 |
And thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye are come to the brink of the water of Jordan, ye shall stand still in Jordan.
فَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «تَقَدَّمُوا إِلَى هُنَا وَٱسْمَعُوا كَلَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ». | ٩ 9 |
And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, Come hither, and hear the words of the LORD your God.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَشُوعُ: «بِهَذَا تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ ٱللهَ ٱلْحَيَّ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ، وَطَرْدًا يَطْرُدُ مِنْ أَمَامِكُمُ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْحِثِّيِّينَ وَٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ وَٱلْفِرِزِّيِّينَ وَٱلْجِرْجَاشِيِّينَ وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيِّينَ. | ١٠ 10 |
And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God [is] among you, and [that] he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites.
هُوَذَا تَابُوتُ عَهْدِ سَيِّدِ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ عَابِرٌ أَمَامَكُمْ فِي ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ١١ 11 |
Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passeth over before you into Jordan.
فَٱلْآنَ ٱنْتَخِبُوا ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، رَجُلًا وَاحِدًا مِنْ كُلِّ سِبْطٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
Now therefore take you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, out of every tribe a man.
وَيَكُونُ حِينَمَا تَسْتَقِرُّ بُطُونُ أَقْدَامِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ حَامِلِي تَابُوتِ ٱلرَّبِّ سَيِّدِ ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا فِي مِيَاهِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، أَنَّ مِيَاهَ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، ٱلمِيْاهَ ٱلْمُنْحَدِرَةَ مِنْ فَوْقُ، تَنْفَلِقُ وَتَقِفُ نَدًّا وَاحِدًا». | ١٣ 13 |
And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of Jordan, [that] the waters of Jordan shall be cut off [from] the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand upon an heap.
وَلَمَّا ٱرْتَحَلَ ٱلشَّعْبُ مِنْ خِيَامِهِمْ لِكَيْ يَعْبُرُوا ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ، وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ حَامِلُو تَابُوتِ ٱلْعَهْدِ أَمَامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، | ١٤ 14 |
And it came to pass, when the people removed from their tents, to pass over Jordan, and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people;
فَعِنْدَ إِتْيَانِ حَامِلِي ٱلتَّابُوتِ إِلَى ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ وَٱنْغِمَاسِ أَرْجُلِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ حَامِلِي ٱلتَّابُوتِ فِي ضَفَّةِ ٱلْمِيَاهِ، وَٱلْأُرْدُنُّ مُمْتَلِئٌ إِلَى جَمِيعِ شُطُوطِهِ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ ٱلْحَصَادِ، | ١٥ 15 |
And as they that bare the ark were come unto Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, (for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest, )
وَقَفَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ ٱلْمُنْحَدِرَةُ مِنْ فَوْقُ، وَقَامَتْ نَدًّا وَاحِدًا بَعِيدًا جِدًّا عَنْ «أَدَامَ» ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي إِلَى جَانِبِ صَرْتَانَ، وَٱلْمُنْحَدِرَةُ إِلَى بَحْرِ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ «بَحْرِ ٱلْمِلْحِ» ٱنْقَطَعَتْ تَمَامًا، وَعَبَرَ ٱلشَّعْبُ مُقَابِلَ أَرِيحَا. | ١٦ 16 |
That the waters which came down from above stood [and] rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that [is] beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, [even] the salt sea, failed, [and] were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.
فَوَقَفَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ حَامِلُو تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى ٱلْيَابِسَةِ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ رَاسِخِينَ، وَجَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَابِرُونَ عَلَى ٱلْيَابِسَةِ حَتَّى ٱنْتَهَى جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنْ عُبُورِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ١٧ 17 |
And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people were passed clean over Jordan.
