مَرَاثِي إِرْمِيَا 5
| اُذْكُرْ يَارَبُّ مَاذَا صَارَ لَنَا. أَشْرِفْ وَٱنْظُرْ إِلَى عَارِنَا. | ١ 1 |
Remember, O Jehovah, what is come upon us! Look down and behold our reproach!
| قَدْ صَارَ مِيرَاثُنَا لِلْغُرَبَاءِ. بُيُوتُنَا لِلْأَجَانِبِ. | ٢ 2 |
Our inheritance is fallen to strangers, Our houses to aliens.
| صِرْنَا أَيْتَامًا بِلَا أَبٍ. أُمَّهَاتُنَا كَأَرَامِلَ. | ٣ 3 |
We are orphans; we are without a father; Our mothers are as widows.
| شَرِبْنَا مَاءَنَا بِٱلْفِضَّةِ. حَطَبُنَا بِٱلثَّمَنِ يَأْتِي. | ٤ 4 |
Our water we drink for money; Our wood is sold to us.
| عَلَى أَعْنَاقِنَا نُضْطَهَدُ. نَتْعَبُ وَلَا رَاحَةَ لَنَا. | ٥ 5 |
With the yoke upon our necks, we are driven; We are wearied, and have no rest.
| أَعْطَيْنَا ٱلْيَدَ لِلْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَٱلْأَشُّورِيِّينَ لِنَشْبَعَ خُبْزًا. | ٦ 6 |
We have given the hand to the Egyptians, And to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread.
| آبَاؤُنَا أَخْطَأُوا وَلَيْسُوا بِمَوْجُودِينَ، وَنَحْنُ نَحْمِلُ آثَامَهُمْ. | ٧ 7 |
Our fathers sinned; they are no more, And we bear their iniquities.
| عَبِيدٌ حَكَمُوا عَلَيْنَا. لَيْسَ مَنْ يُخَلِّصُ مِنْ أَيْدِيهِمْ. | ٨ 8 |
Servants rule over us; There is none that delivereth out of their hand.
| بِأَنْفُسِنَا نَأْتِي بِخُبْزِنَا مِنْ جَرَى سَيْفِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٩ 9 |
With the peril of our lives we get our bread, Because of the sword of the wilderness.
| جُلُودُنَا ٱسْوَدَّتْ كَتَنُّورٍ مِنْ جَرَى نِيرَانِ ٱلْجُوعِ. | ١٠ 10 |
Our skin is parched like an oven Because of the burnings of hunger.
| أَذَلُّوا ٱلنِّسَاءَ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ، ٱلْعَذَارَى فِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا. | ١١ 11 |
Matrons in Zion have they ravished, And maidens in the cities of Judah.
| ٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ يُعَلَّقُونَ، وَلَمْ تُعْتَبَرْ وُجُوهُ ٱلشُّيُوخِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Princes were hanged up by their hand; The faces of the elders were not honored.
| أَخَذُوا ٱلشُّبَّانَ لِلطَّحْنِ، وَٱلصِّبْيَانَ عَثَرُوا تَحْتَ ٱلْحَطَبِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Young men carried millstones, And boys fell under burdens of wood.
| كَفَّتِ ٱلشُّيُوخُ عَنِ ٱلْبَابِ، وَٱلشُّبَّانُ عَنْ غِنَائِهِمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
The elders sit no more at the gate; The young men have ceased from their music.
| مَضَى فَرَحُ قَلْبِنَا. صَارَ رَقْصُنَا نَوْحًا. | ١٥ 15 |
The joy of our heart is at an end; Our dancing is turned into mourning.
| سَقَطَ إِكْلِيلُ رَأْسِنَا. وَيْلٌ لَنَا لِأَنَّنَا قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا. | ١٦ 16 |
The crown is fallen from our head; Woe unto us, that we have sinned!
| مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا حَزِنَ قَلْبُنَا. مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذِهِ أَظْلَمَتْ عُيُونُنَا. | ١٧ 17 |
For this is our heart faint, For these things our eyes are dim;
| مِنْ أَجْلِ جَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ ٱلْخَرِبِ. ٱلثَّعَالِبُ مَاشِيَةٌ فِيهِ. | ١٨ 18 |
On account of mount Zion, which is desolate; Foxes roam over it.
| أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ تَجْلِسُ. كُرْسِيُّكَ إِلَى دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ. | ١٩ 19 |
But thou, O Jehovah, sittest as king forever; Thy throne endureth from generation to generation.
| لِمَاذَا تَنْسَانَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ وَتَتْرُكُنَا طُولَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ؟ | ٢٠ 20 |
Wherefore dost thou wholly forget us, And abandon us, for so long a time?
| اُرْدُدْنَا يَارَبُّ إِلَيْكَ فَنَرْتَدَّ. جَدِّدْ أَيَّامَنَا كَٱلْقَدِيمِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Turn us again to thee, O Jehovah, that we may be restored! Renew our days as of old!
| هَلْ كُلَّ ٱلرَّفْضِ رَفَضْتَنَا؟ هَلْ غَضِبْتَ عَلَيْنَا جِدًّا؟ | ٢٢ 22 |
For shouldst thou utterly reject us? Shouldst thou be so exceedingly wroth against us?
