اَلْقُضَاة 13
| ثُمَّ عَادَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ يَعْمَلُونَ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَدَفَعَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. | ١ 1 |
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight; and the LORD delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
| وَكَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ صُرْعَةَ مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ ٱلدَّانِيِّينَ ٱسْمُهُ مَنُوحُ، وَٱمْرَأَتُهُ عَاقِرٌ لَمْ تَلِدْ. | ٢ 2 |
There was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and childless.
| فَتَرَاءَى مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ لِلْمَرْأَةِ وَقَالَ لَهَا: «هَا أَنْتِ عَاقِرٌ لَمْ تَلِدِي، وَلَكِنَّكِ تَحْبَلِينَ وَتَلِدِينَ ٱبْنًا. | ٣ 3 |
The LORD’s angel appeared to the woman, and said to her, “See now, you are barren and childless; but you shall conceive and bear a son.
| وَٱلْآنَ فَٱحْذَرِي وَلَا تَشْرَبِي خَمْرًا وَلَا مُسْكِرًا، وَلَا تَأْكُلِي شَيْئًا نَجِسًا. | ٤ 4 |
Now therefore please beware and drink no wine nor strong drink, and don’t eat any unclean thing;
| فَهَا إِنَّكِ تَحْبَلِينَ وَتَلِدِينَ ٱبْنًا، وَلَا يَعْلُ مُوسَى رَأْسَهُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلصَّبِيَّ يَكُونُ نَذِيرًا لِلهِ مِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ، وَهُوَ يَبْدَأُ يُخَلِّصُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ». | ٥ 5 |
for, behold, you shall conceive and give birth to a son. No razor shall come on his head, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb. He shall begin to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.”
| فَدَخَلَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ وَكَلَّمَتْ رَجُلَهَا قَائِلَةً: «جَاءَ إِلَيَّ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ، وَمَنْظَرُهُ كَمَنْظَرِ مَلَاكِ ٱللهِ، مُرْهِبٌ جِدًّا. وَلَمْ أَسْأَلْهُ: مِنْ أَيْنَ هُوَ، وَلَا هُوَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَنِ ٱسْمِهِ. | ٦ 6 |
Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, “A man of God came to me, and his face was like the face of the angel of God, very awesome. I didn’t ask him where he was from, neither did he tell me his name;
| وَقَالَ لِي: هَا أَنْتِ تَحْبَلِينَ وَتَلِدِينَ ٱبْنًا. وَٱلْآنَ فَلَا تَشْرَبِي خَمْرًا وَلَا مُسْكِرًا، وَلَا تَأْكُلِي شَيْئًا نَجِسًا، لِأَنَّ ٱلصَّبِيَّ يَكُونُ نَذِيرًا لِلهِ مِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ إِلَى يَوْمِ مَوْتِهِ». | ٧ 7 |
but he said to me, ‘Behold, you shall conceive and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink. Don’t eat any unclean thing, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb to the day of his death.’”
| فَصَلَّى مَنُوحُ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: «أَسْأَلُكَ يَاسَيِّدِي أَنْ يَأْتِيَ أَيْضًا إِلَيْنَا رَجُلُ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَهُ، وَيُعَلِّمَنَا: مَاذَا نَعْمَلُ لِلصَّبِيِّ ٱلَّذِي يُولَدُ؟». | ٨ 8 |
Then Manoah entreated the LORD, and said, “Oh, Lord, please let the man of God whom you sent come again to us, and teach us what we should do to the child who shall be born.”
| فَسَمِعَ ٱللهُ لِصَوْتِ مَنُوحَ، فَجَاءَ مَلَاكُ ٱللهِ أَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلْمَرْأَةِ وَهِيَ جَالِسَةٌ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ، وَمَنُوحُ رَجُلُهَا لَيْسَ مَعَهَا. | ٩ 9 |
God listened to the voice of Manoah, and the angel of God came again to the woman as she sat in the field; but Manoah, her husband, wasn’t with her.
| فَأَسْرَعَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ وَرَكَضَتْ وَأَخْبَرَتْ رَجُلَهَاوَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا قَدْ تَرَاءَى لِيَ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي جَاءَ إِلَيَّ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ». | ١٠ 10 |
The woman hurried and ran, and told her husband, saying to him, “Behold, the man who came to me that day has appeared to me.”
| فَقَامَ مَنُوحُ وَسَارَ وَرَاءَ ٱمْرَأَتِهِ وَجَاءَ إِلَى ٱلرَّجُلِ، وَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَأَنْتَ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ مَعَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ؟» فَقَالَ: «أَنَا هُوَ». | ١١ 11 |
Manoah arose and followed his wife, and came to the man, and said to him, “Are you the man who spoke to my wife?” He said, “I am.”
| فَقَالَ مَنُوحُ: «عِنْدَ مَجِيءِ كَلَامِكَ، مَاذَا يَكُونُ حُكْمُ ٱلصَّبِيِّ وَمُعَامَلَتُهُ؟» | ١٢ 12 |
Manoah said, “Now let your words happen. What shall the child’s way of life and mission be?”
| فَقَالَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ لِمَنُوحَ: «مِنْ كُلِّ مَا قُلْتُ لِلْمَرْأَةِ فَلْتَحْتَفِظْ. | ١٣ 13 |
The LORD’s angel said to Manoah, “Of all that I said to the woman let her beware.
| مِنْ كُلِّ مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْ جَفْنَةِ ٱلْخَمْرِ لَا تَأْكُلْ، وَخَمْرًا وَمُسْكِرًا لَا تَشْرَبْ، وَكُلَّ نَجِسٍ لَا تَأْكُلْ. لِتَحْذَرْ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا أَوْصَيْتُهَا». | ١٤ 14 |
She may not eat of anything that comes of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing. Let her observe all that I commanded her.”
| فَقَالَ مَنُوحُ لِمَلَاكِ ٱلرَّبِّ: «دَعْنَا نُعَوِّقْكَ وَنَعْمَلْ لَكَ جَدْيَ مِعْزًى». | ١٥ 15 |
Manoah said to the LORD’s angel, “Please stay with us, that we may make a young goat ready for you.”
| فَقَالَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ لِمَنُوحَ: «وَلَوْ عَوَّقْتَنِي لَا آكُلُ مِنْ خُبْزِكَ، وَإِنْ عَمِلْتَ مُحْرَقَةً فَلِلرَّبِّ أَصْعِدْهَا». لِأَنَّ مَنُوحَ لَمْ يَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١٦ 16 |
The LORD’s angel said to Manoah, “Though you detain me, I won’t eat your bread. If you will prepare a burnt offering, you must offer it to the LORD.” For Manoah didn’t know that he was the LORD’s angel.
| فَقَالَ مَنُوحُ لِمَلَاكِ ٱلرَّبِّ: «مَا ٱسْمُكَ حَتَّى إِذَا جَاءَ كَلَامُكَ نُكْرِمُكَ؟» | ١٧ 17 |
Manoah said to the LORD’s angel, “What is your name, that when your words happen, we may honor you?”
| فَقَالَ لَهُ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ: «لِمَاذَا تَسْأَلُ عَنِ ٱسْمِي وَهُوَ عَجِيبٌ؟». | ١٨ 18 |
The LORD’s angel said to him, “Why do you ask about my name, since it is incomprehensible?”
| فَأَخَذَ مَنُوحُ جَدْيَ ٱلْمِعْزَى وَٱلتَّقْدِمَةَ وَأَصْعَدَهُمَا عَلَى ٱلصَّخْرَةِ لِلرَّبِّ. فَعَمِلَ عَمَلًا عَجِيبًا وَمَنُوحُ وَٱمْرَأَتُهُ يَنْظُرَانِ. | ١٩ 19 |
So Manoah took the young goat with the meal offering, and offered it on the rock to the LORD. Then the angel did an amazing thing as Manoah and his wife watched.
| فَكَانَ عِنْدَ صُعُودِ ٱللَّهِيبِ عَنِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ نَحْوَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، أَنَّ مَلَاكَ ٱلرَّبِّ صَعِدَ فِي لَهِيبِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ، وَمَنُوحُ وَٱمْرَأَتُهُ يَنْظُرَانِ. فَسَقَطَا عَلَى وَجْهَيْهِمَا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
For when the flame went up toward the sky from off the altar, the LORD’s angel ascended in the flame of the altar. Manoah and his wife watched; and they fell on their faces to the ground.
| وَلَمْ يَعُدْ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ يَتَرَاءَى لِمَنُوحَ وَٱمْرَأَتِهِ. حِينَئِذٍ عَرَفَ مَنُوحُ أَنَّهُ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٢١ 21 |
But the LORD’s angel didn’t appear to Manoah or to his wife any more. Then Manoah knew that he was the LORD’s angel.
| فَقَالَ مَنُوحُ لِٱمْرَأَتِهِ: «نَمُوتُ مَوْتًا لِأَنَّنَا قَدْ رَأَيْنَا ٱللهَ» | ٢٢ 22 |
Manoah said to his wife, “We shall surely die, because we have seen God.”
| فَقَالَتْ لَهُ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ: «لَوْ أَرَادَ ٱلرَّبُّ أَنْ يُمِيتَنَا، لَمَا أَخَذَ مِنْ يَدِنَا مُحْرَقَةً وَتَقْدِمَةً، وَلَمَا أَرَانَا كُلَّ هَذِهِ، وَلَمَا كَانَ فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا ٱلْوَقْتِ أَسْمَعَنَا مِثْلَ هَذِهِ». | ٢٣ 23 |
But his wife said to him, “If the LORD were pleased to kill us, he wouldn’t have received a burnt offering and a meal offering at our hand, and he wouldn’t have shown us all these things, nor would he have told us such things as these at this time.”
| فَوَلَدَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ ٱبْنًا وَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ شَمْشُونَ. فَكَبِرَ ٱلصَّبِيُّ وَبَارَكَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٢٤ 24 |
The woman bore a son and named him Samson. The child grew, and the LORD blessed him.
| وَٱبْتَدَأَ رُوحُ ٱلرَّبِّ يُحَرِّكُهُ فِي مَحَلَّةِ دَانٍ بَيْنَ صُرْعَةَ وَأَشْتَأُولَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
The LORD’s Spirit began to move him in Mahaneh Dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.
