يَشُوع 8
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَشُوعَ: «لَا تَخَفْ وَلَا تَرْتَعِبْ. خُذْ مَعَكَ جَمِيعَ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ، وَقُمِ ٱصْعَدْ إِلَى عَايٍ. ٱنْظُرْ. قَدْ دَفَعْتُ بِيَدِكَ مَلِكَ عَايٍ وَشَعْبَهُ وَمَدِينَتَهُ وَأَرْضَهُ، | ١ 1 |
And Jehovah said unto Joshua, Fear not, neither be thou dismayed: take all the people of war with thee, and arise, go up to Ai; see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land;
| فَتَفْعَلُ بِعَايٍ وَمَلِكِهَا كَمَا فَعَلْتَ بِأَرِيحَا وَمَلِكِهَا. غَيْرَ أَنَّ غَنِيمَتَهَا وَبَهَائِمَهَا تَنْهَبُونَهَا لِنُفُوسِكُمُ. ٱجْعَلْ كَمِينًا لِلْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ وَرَائِهَا». | ٢ 2 |
and thou shalt do to Ai and her king as thou didst unto Jericho and her king: only the spoil thereof, and the cattle thereof, shall ye take for a prey unto yourselves: set thee an ambush for the city behind it.
| فَقَامَ يَشُوعُ وَجَمِيعُ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ لِلصُّعُودِ إِلَى عَايٍ. وَٱنْتَخَبَ يَشُوعُ ثَلَاثِينَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ جَبَابِرَةَ ٱلْبَأْسِ وَأَرْسَلَهُمْ لَيْلًا، | ٣ 3 |
So Joshua arose, and all the people of war, to go up to Ai: and Joshua chose out thirty thousand men, the mighty men of valor, and sent them forth by night.
| وَأَوْصَاهُمْ قَائِلًا: «ٱنْظُرُوا! أَنْتُمْ تَكْمُنُونَ لِلْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ وَرَاءِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. لَا تَبْتَعِدُوا مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ كَثِيرًا، وَكُونُوا كُلُّكُمْ مُسْتَعِدِّينَ. | ٤ 4 |
And he commanded them, saying, Behold, ye shall lie in ambush against the city, behind the city; go not very far from the city, but be ye all ready:
| وَأَمَّا أَنَا وَجَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي مَعِي فَنَقْتَرِبُ إِلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. وَيَكُونُ حِينَمَا يَخْرُجُونَ لِلِقَائِنَا كَمَا فِي ٱلْأَوَّلِ أَنَّنَا نَهْرُبُ قُدَّامَهُمْ، | ٥ 5 |
and I, and all the people that are with me, will approach unto the city. And it shall come to pass, when they come out against us, as at the first, that we will flee before them;
| فَيَخْرُجُونَ وَرَاءَنَا حَتَّى نَجْذِبَهُمْ عَنِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. لِأَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّهُمْ هَارِبُونَ أَمَامَنَا كَمَا فِي ٱلْأَوَّلِ. فَنَهْرُبُ قُدَّامَهُمْ. | ٦ 6 |
and they will come out after us, till we have drawn them away from the city; for they will say, They flee before us, as at the first: so we will flee before them;
| وَأَنْتُمْ تَقُومُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمَكْمَنِ وَتَمْلِكُونَ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ، وَيَدْفَعُهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ بِيَدِكُمْ. | ٧ 7 |
and ye shall rise up from the ambush, and take possession of the city: for Jehovah your God will deliver it into your hand.
| وَيَكُونُ عِنْدَ أَخْذِكُمُ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ أَنَّكُمْ تُضْرِمُونَ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ بِٱلنَّارِ. كَقَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ تَفْعَلُونَ. ٱنْظُرُوا. قَدْ أَوْصَيْتُكُمْ». | ٨ 8 |
And it shall be, when ye have seized upon the city, that ye shall set the city on fire; according to the word of Jehovah shall ye do: see, I have commanded you.
| فَأَرْسَلَهُمْ يَشُوعُ، فَسَارُوا إِلَى ٱلْمَكْمَنِ، وَلَبِثُوا بَيْنَ بَيْتِ إِيلَ وَعَايٍ غَرْبِيَّ عَايٍ. وَبَاتَ يَشُوعُ تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةَ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ٩ 9 |
And Joshua sent them forth; and they went to the ambushment, and abode between Beth-el and Ai, on the west side of Ai: but Joshua lodged that night among the people.
| فَبَكَّرَ يَشُوعُ فِي ٱلْغَدِ وَعَدَّ ٱلشَّعْبَ، وَصَعِدَ هُوَ وَشُيُوخُ إِسْرَائِيلَ قُدَّامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ إِلَى عَايٍ. | ١٠ 10 |
And Joshua arose up early in the morning, and mustered the people, and went up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai.
| وَجَمِيعُ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ صَعِدُوا وَتَقَدَّمُوا وَأَتَوْا إِلَى مُقَابِلِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَنَزَلُوا شِمَالِيَّ عَايٍ، وَٱلْوَادِي بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ عَايٍ. | ١١ 11 |
And all the people, [even] the [men of] war that were with him, went up, and drew nigh, and came before the city, and encamped on the north side of Ai: now there was a valley between him and Ai.
| فَأَخَذَ نَحْوَ خَمْسَةِ آلَافِ رَجُلٍ وَجَعَلَهُمْ كَمِينًا بَيْنَ بَيْتِ إِيلَ وَعَايٍ غَرْبِيَّ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. | ١٢ 12 |
And he took about five thousand men, and set them in ambush between Beth-el and Ai, on the west side of the city.
| وَأَقَامُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ، أَيْ كُلَّ ٱلْجَيْشِ ٱلَّذِي شِمَالِيَّ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَكَمِينَهُ غَرْبِيَّ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. وَسَارَ يَشُوعُ تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةَ إِلَى وَسَطِ ٱلْوَادِي. | ١٣ 13 |
So they set the people, even all the host that was on the north of the city, and their liers-in-wait that were on the west of the city; and Joshua went that night into the midst of the valley.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا رَأَى مَلِكُ عَايٍ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُمْ أَسْرَعُوا وَبَكَّرُوا، وَخَرَجَ رِجَالُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لِلِقَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِلْحَرْبِ، هُوَ وَجَمِيعُ شَعْبِهِ فِي ٱلْمِيعَادِ إِلَى قُدَّامِ ٱلسَّهْلِ، وَهُوَ لَا يَعْلَمُ أَنَّ عَلَيْهِ كَمِينًا وَرَاءَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. | ١٤ 14 |
And it came to pass, when the king of Ai saw it, that they hasted and rose up early, and the men of the city went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at the time appointed, before the Arabah; but he knew not that there was an ambush against him behind the city.
| فَأَعْطَى يَشُوعُ وَجَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱنْكِسَارًا أَمَامَهُمْ وَهَرَبُوا فِي طَرِيقِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And Joshua and all Israel made as if they were beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wilderness.
| فَأُلْقِيَ ٱلصَّوْتُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لِلسَّعْيِ وَرَاءَهُمْ، فَسَعَوْا وَرَاءَ يَشُوعَ وَٱنْجَذَبُوا عَنِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And all the people that were in the city were called together to pursue after them: and they pursued after Joshua, and were drawn away from the city.
| وَلَمْ يَبْقَ فِي عَايٍ أَوْ فِي بَيْتِ إِيلٍ رَجُلٌ لَمْ يَخْرُجْ وَرَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. فَتَرَكُوا ٱلْمَدِينَةَ مَفْتُوحَةً وَسَعَوْا وَرَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٧ 17 |
And there was not a man left in Ai or Beth-el, that went not out after Israel: and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَشُوعَ: «مُدَّ ٱلْمِزْرَاقَ ٱلَّذِي بِيَدِكَ نَحْوَ عَايٍ لِأَنِّي بِيَدِكَ أَدْفَعُهَا». فَمَدَّ يَشُوعُ ٱلْمِزْرَاقَ ٱلَّذِي بِيَدِهِ نَحْوَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. | ١٨ 18 |
And Jehovah said unto Joshua, Stretch out the javelin that is in thy hand toward Ai; for I will give it into thy hand. And Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city.
| فَقَامَ ٱلْكَمِينُ بِسُرْعَةٍ مِنْ مَكَانِهِ وَرَكَضُوا عِنْدَمَا مَدَّ يَدَهُ، وَدَخَلُوا ٱلْمَدِينَةَ وَأَخَذُوهَا، وَأَسْرَعُوا وَأَحْرَقُوا ٱلْمَدِينَةَ بِٱلنَّارِ. | ١٩ 19 |
And the ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand, and entered into the city, and took it; and they hasted and set the city on fire.
| فَٱلْتَفَتَ رِجَالُ عَايٍ إِلَى وَرَائِهِمْ وَنَظَرُوا وَإِذَا دُخَانُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ قَدْ صَعِدَ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ. فَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمْ مَكَانٌ لِلْهَرَبِ هُنَا أَوْ هُنَاكَ. وَٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلْهَارِبُ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ ٱنْقَلَبَ عَلَى ٱلطَّارِدِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And when the men of Ai looked behind them, they saw, and, behold, the smoke of the city ascended up to heaven, and they had no power to flee this way or that way: and the people that fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers.
| وَلَمَّا رَأَى يَشُوعُ وَجَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّ ٱلْكَمِينَ قَدْ أَخَذَ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ، وَأَنَّ دُخَانَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ قَدْ صَعِدَ، ٱنْثَنَوْا وَضَرَبُوا رِجَالَ عَايٍ. | ٢١ 21 |
And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city ascended, then they turned again, and slew the men of Ai.
| وَهَؤُلَاءِ خَرَجُوا مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لِلِقَائِهِمْ، فَكَانُوا فِي وَسَطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، هَؤُلَاءِ مِنْ هُنَا وَأُولَئِكَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ. وَضَرَبُوهُمْ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْهُمْ شَارِدٌ وَلَا مُنْفَلِتٌ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And the others came forth out of the city against them; so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side: and they smote them, so that they let none of them remain or escape.
| وَأَمَّا مَلِكُ عَايٍ فَأَمْسَكُوهُ حَيًّا وَتَقَدَّمُوا بِهِ إِلَى يَشُوعَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And the king of Ai they took alive, and brought him to Joshua.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا ٱنْتَهَى إِسْرَائِيلُ مِنْ قَتْلِ جَمِيعِ سُكَّانِ عَايٍ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ حَيْثُ لَحِقُوهُمْ وَسَقَطُوا جَمِيعًا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ حَتَّى فَنُوا، أَنَّ جَمِيعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ رَجَعَ إِلَى عَايٍ وَضَرَبُوهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And it came to pass, when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness wherein they pursued them, and they were all fallen by the edge of the sword, until they were consumed, that all Israel returned unto Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.
| فَكَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ سَقَطُوا فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ مِنْ رِجَالٍ وَنِسَاءٍ ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ أَلْفًا، جَمِيعُ أَهْلِ عَايٍ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And all that fell that day, both of men and women, were twelve thousand, even all the men of Ai.
| وَيَشُوعُ لَمْ يَرُدَّ يَدَهُ ٱلَّتِي مَدَّهَا بِٱلْمِزْرَاقِ حَتَّى حَرَّمَ جَمِيعَ سُكَّانِ عَايٍ. | ٢٦ 26 |
For Joshua drew not back his hand, wherewith he stretched out the javelin, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.
| لَكِنِ ٱلْبَهَائِمُ وَغَنِيمَةُ تِلْكَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ نَهَبَهَا إِسْرَائِيلُ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي أَمَرَ بِهِ يَشُوعَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Only the cattle and the spoil of that city Israel took for prey unto themselves, according unto the word of Jehovah which he commanded Joshua.
| وَأَحْرَقَ يَشُوعُ عَايَ وَجَعَلَهَا تَّلًا أَبَدِيًّا خَرَابًا إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٢٨ 28 |
So Joshua burnt Ai, and made it a heap for ever, even a desolation, unto this day.
| وَمَلِكُ عَايٍ عَلَّقَهُ عَلَى ٱلْخَشَبَةِ إِلَى وَقْتِ ٱلْمَسَاءِ. وَعِنْدَ غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ أَمَرَ يَشُوعُ فَأَنْزَلُوا جُثَّتَهُ عَنِ ٱلْخَشَبَةِ وَطَرَحُوهَا عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ بَابِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَأَقَامُوا عَلَيْهَا رُجْمَةَ حِجَارَةٍ عَظِيمَةً إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until the eventide: and at the going down of the sun Joshua commanded, and they took his body down from the tree, and cast it at the entrance of the gate of the city, and raised thereon a great heap of stones, unto this day.
| حِينَئِذٍ بَنَى يَشُوعُ مَذْبَحًا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي جَبَلِ عِيبَالَ، | ٣٠ 30 |
Then Joshua built an altar unto Jehovah, the God of Israel, in mount Ebal,
| كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي سِفْرِ تَوْرَاةِ مُوسَى. مَذْبَحَ حِجَارَةٍ صَحِيحَةٍ لَمْ يَرْفَعْ أَحَدٌ عَلَيْهَا حَدِيدًا، وَأَصْعَدُوا عَلَيْهِ مُحْرَقَاتٍ لِلرَّبِّ، وَذَبَحُوا ذَبَائِحَ سَلَامَةٍ. | ٣١ 31 |
as Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of unhewn stones, upon which no man had lifted up any iron: and they offered thereon burnt-offerings unto Jehovah, and sacrificed peace-offerings.
| وَكَتَبَ هُنَاكَ عَلَى ٱلْحِجَارَةِ نُسْخَةَ تَوْرَاةِ مُوسَى ٱلَّتِي كَتَبَهَا أَمَامَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣٢ 32 |
And he wrote there upon the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he wrote, in the presence of the children of Israel.
| وَجَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَشُيُوخُهُمْ، وَٱلْعُرَفَاءُ وَقُضَاتُهُمْ، وَقَفُوا جَانِبَ ٱلتَّابُوتِ مِنْ هُنَا وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ مُقَابِلَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ حَامِلِي تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٱلْغَرِيبُ كَمَا ٱلْوَطَنِيُّ. نِصْفُهُمْ إِلَى جِهَةِ جَبَلِ جِرِزِّيمَ، وَنِصْفُهُمْ إِلَى جِهَةِ جَبَلِ عِيبَالَ، كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ أَوَّلًا لِبَرَكَةِ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣٣ 33 |
And all Israel, and their elders and officers, and their judges, stood on this side of the ark and on that side before the priests the Levites, that bare the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, as well the sojourner as the home-born; half of them in front of mount Gerizim, and half of them in front of mount Ebal; as Moses the servant of Jehovah had commanded at the first, that they should bless the people of Israel.
| وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَرَأَ جَمِيعَ كَلَامِ ٱلتَّوْرَاةِ: ٱلْبَرَكَةَ وَٱللَّعْنَةَ، حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا كُتِبَ فِي سِفْرِ ٱلتَّوْرَاةِ. | ٣٤ 34 |
And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessing and the curse, according to all that is written in the book of the law.
| لَمْ تَكُنْ كَلِمَةٌ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ مُوسَى لَمْ يَقْرَأْهَا يَشُوعُ قُدَّامَ كُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَٱلنِّسَاءِ وَٱلْأَطْفَالِ وَٱلْغَرِيبِ ٱلسَّائِرِ فِي وَسَطِهِمْ. | ٣٥ 35 |
There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua read not before all the assembly of Israel, and the women, and the little ones, and the sojourners that were among them.
