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 riseth early in the morning, and they journey from Shittim, and come in unto the Jordan, he and all the sons of Israel, and they lodge there before they pass over.
| وَكَانَ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ أَنَّ ٱلْعُرَفَاءَ جَازُوا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، | ٢ 2 |
And it cometh to pass, at the end of three days, that the authorities pass over into the midst of the camp,
| وَأَمَرُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ قَائِلِينَ: «عِنْدَمَا تَرَوْنَ تَابُوتَ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ وَٱلْكَهَنَةَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ حَامِلِينَ إِيَّاهُ، فَٱرْتَحِلُوا مِنْ أَمَاكِنِكُمْ وَسِيرُوا وَرَاءَهُ. | ٣ 3 |
and command the people, saying, 'When ye see the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then ye journey from your place, and have gone 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 |
only, a distance is between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure; ye do not come near unto it, so that ye know the way in which ye go, for ye have not passed over in the way heretofore.'
| وَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِلشَّعْبِ: «تَقَدَّسُوا لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَعْمَلُ غَدًا فِي وَسَطِكُمْ عَجَائِبَ». | ٥ 5 |
And Joshua saith unto the people, 'Sanctify yourselves, for to-morrow doth Jehovah do in your midst wonders.'
| وَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِلْكَهَنَةِ: «ٱحْمِلُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلْعَهْدِ وَٱعْبُرُوا أَمَامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ». فَحَمَلُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلْعَهْدِ وَسَارُوا أَمَامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ٦ 6 |
And Joshua speaketh unto the priests, saying, 'Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people;' and they take up the ark of the covenant, and go 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 Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'This day I begin to make thee great in the eyes of all Israel, so that they know that as I was with Moses I am with thee;
| وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَأْمُرِ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ حَامِلِي تَابُوتِ ٱلْعَهْدِ قَائِلًا: عِنْدَمَا تَأْتُونَ إِلَى ضَفَّةِ مِيَاهِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ تَقِفُونَ فِي ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ». | ٨ 8 |
and thou, thou dost command the priests bearing the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye come unto the extremity of the waters of the Jordan — in the Jordan ye stand.'
| فَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «تَقَدَّمُوا إِلَى هُنَا وَٱسْمَعُوا كَلَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ». | ٩ 9 |
And Joshua saith unto the sons of Israel, 'Come nigh hither, and hear the words of Jehovah 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 saith, 'By this ye know that the living God [is] in your midst, and He doth certainly dispossess from before you the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Hivite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Jebusite:
| هُوَذَا تَابُوتُ عَهْدِ سَيِّدِ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ عَابِرٌ أَمَامَكُمْ فِي ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ١١ 11 |
lo, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is passing over before you into Jordan;
| فَٱلْآنَ ٱنْتَخِبُوا ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، رَجُلًا وَاحِدًا مِنْ كُلِّ سِبْطٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
and now, take for you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, one man — one man for a tribe;
| 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 hath been, at the resting of the soles of the feet of the priests bearing the ark of Jehovah, Lord of all the earth, in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan are cut off — the waters which are coming down from above — and they stand — one heap.'
| وَلَمَّا ٱرْتَحَلَ ٱلشَّعْبُ مِنْ خِيَامِهِمْ لِكَيْ يَعْبُرُوا ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ، وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ حَامِلُو تَابُوتِ ٱلْعَهْدِ أَمَامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، | ١٤ 14 |
And it cometh to pass, in the journeying of the people from their tents to pass over the Jordan, and of 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 at those bearing the ark coming in unto the Jordan, and the feet of the priests bearing the ark have been dipped in the extremity of the waters (and the Jordan is full over all its banks all the days 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 stand; those coming down from above have risen — one heap, very far above Adam the city, which [is] at the side of Zaretan; and those going down by the sea of the plain, the Salt Sea, have been completely cut off; and the people have passed through over-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 bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah stand on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan — established, and all Israel are passing over on dry ground till that all the nation hath completed to pass over the Jordan.
