اَللَّاوِيِّينَ 26

١ 1 «لَا تَصْنَعُوا لَكُمْ أَوْثَانًا، وَلَا تُقِيمُوا لَكُمْ تِمْثَالًا مَنْحُوتًا أَوْ نَصَبًا، وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا فِي أَرْضِكُمْ حَجَرًا مُصَوَّرًا لِتَسْجُدُوا لَهُ. لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ.

I am the Lord your God: you shall not make to yourselves any idol or graven thing, neither shall you erect pillars, nor set up a remarkable stone in your land, to adore it: for I am the Lord your God.

٢ 2 سُبُوتِي تَحْفَظُونَ وَمَقْدِسِي تَهَابُونَ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ.

Keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord.

٣ 3 «إِذَا سَلَكْتُمْ فِي فَرَائِضِي وَحَفِظْتُمْ وَصَايَايَ وَعَمِلْتُمْ بِهَا،

If you walk in my precepts, and keep my commandments, and do them, I will give you rein in due seasons.

٤ 4 أُعْطِي مَطَرَكُمْ فِي حِينِهِ، وَتُعْطِي ٱلْأَرْضُ غَلَّتَهَا، وَتُعْطِي أَشْجَارُ ٱلْحَقْلِ أَثْمَارَهَا،

And the ground shall bring forth its increase, and the trees shall be filled with fruit.

٥ 5 وَيَلْحَقُ دِرَاسُكُمْ بِٱلْقِطَافِ، وَيَلْحَقُ ٱلْقِطَافُ بِٱلزَّرْعِ، فَتَأْكُلُونَ خُبْزَكُمْ لِلشِّبَعِ وَتَسْكُنُونَ فِي أَرْضِكُمْ آمِنِينَ.

The threshing of your harvest shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and you shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land without fear.

٦ 6 وَأَجْعَلُ سَلَامًا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَتَنَامُونَ وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُزْعِجُكُمْ. وَأُبِيدُ ٱلْوُحُوشَ ٱلرَّدِيئَةَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلَا يَعْبُرُ سَيْفٌ فِي أَرْضِكُمْ.

I will give peace in your coasts: you shall sleep, and there shall be none to make you afraid. I will take away evil beasts: and the sword shall not pass through your quarters.

٧ 7 وَتَطْرُدُونَ أَعْدَاءَكُمْ فَيَسْقُطُونَ أَمَامَكُمْ بِٱلسَّيْفِ.

You shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you.

٨ 8 يَطْرُدُ خَمْسَةٌ مِنْكُمْ مِئَةً، وَمِئَةٌ مِنْكُمْ يَطْرُدُونَ رَبْوَةً، وَيَسْقُطُ أَعْدَاؤُكُمْ أَمَامَكُمْ بِٱلسَّيْفِ.

Five of yours shall pursue a hundred others, and a hundred of you ten thousand: your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

٩ 9 وَأَلْتَفِتُ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأُثْمِرُكُمْ وَأُكَثِّرُكُمْ وَأَفِي مِيثَاقِي مَعَكُمْ،

I will look on you, and make you increase: you shell be multiplied, and I will establish my covenant with you.

١٠ 10 فَتَأْكُلُونَ ٱلْعَتِيقَ ٱلْمُعَتَّقَ، وَتُخْرِجُونَ ٱلْعَتِيقَ مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْجَدِيدِ.

You shall eat the oldest of the old store, and, new coming on, you shall cast away the old.

١١ 11 وَأَجْعَلُ مَسْكَنِي فِي وَسَطِكُمْ، وَلَا تَرْذُلُكُمْ نَفْسِي.

I will set my tabernacle in the midst of you, and my soul shall not cast you off.

١٢ 12 وَأَسِيرُ بَيْنَكُمْ وَأَكُونُ لَكُمْ إِلَهًا وَأَنْتُمْ تَكُونُونَ لِي شَعْبًا.

I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you shall be my people.

١٣ 13 أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمُ ٱلَّذِي أَخْرَجَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ مِنْ كَوْنِكُمْ لَهُمْ عَبِيدًا، وَقَطَّعَ قُيُودَ نِيرِكُمْ وَسَيَّرَكُمْ قِيَامًا.

I am the Lord your God: who have brought you out of the land of the Egyptians, that you should not serve them, and who have broken the chains of your necks, that you might go upright.

١٤ 14 «لَكِنْ إِنْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِي وَلَمْ تَعْمَلُوا كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْوَصَايَا،

But if you will not hear me, nor do all my commandments,

١٥ 15 وَإِنْ رَفَضْتُمْ فَرَائِضِي وَكَرِهَتْ أَنْفُسُكُمْ أَحْكَامِي، فَمَا عَمِلْتُمْ كُلَّ وَصَايَايَ، بَلْ نَكَثْتُمْ مِيثَاقِي،

If you despise my laws, and contemn my judgments so as not to do those things which are appointed by me, and to make void my covenant:

١٦ 16 فَإِنِّي أَعْمَلُ هَذِهِ بِكُمْ: أُسَلِّطُ عَلَيْكُمْ رُعْبًا وَسِلًّا وَحُمَّى تُفْنِي ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ وَتُتْلِفُ ٱلنَّفْسَ. وَتَزْرَعُونَ بَاطِلًا زَرْعَكُمْ فَيَأْكُلُهُ أَعْدَاؤُكُمْ.

I also will do these things to you: I will quickly visit you with poverty, and burning heat, which shall waste your eyes, and consume your lives. You shall sow your seed in vain, which shall be devoured by your enemies.

١٧ 17 وَأَجْعَلُ وَجْهِي ضِدَّكُمْ فَتَنْهَزِمُونَ أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِكُمْ، وَيَتَسَلَّطُ عَلَيْكُمْ مُبْغِضُوكُمْ، وَتَهْرُبُونَ وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَطْرُدُكُمْ.

I will set my face against you, and you shall fall down before your enemies, and shall be made subject to them that hate you, you shall flee when no man pursueth you.

١٨ 18 «وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ مَعَ ذَلِكَ لَا تَسْمَعُونَ لِي، أَزِيدُ عَلَى تَأْدِيبِكُمْ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ حَسَبَ خَطَايَاكُمْ،

But if you will not yet for all this obey me: I will chastise you seven times more for your sins,

١٩ 19 فَأُحَطِّمُ فَخَارَ عِزِّكُمْ، وَأُصَيِّرُ سَمَاءَكُمْ كَٱلْحَدِيدِ، وَأَرْضَكُمْ كَٱلنُّحَاسِ،

And I will break the pride of your stubbornness, and I will make to you the heaven above as iron, and the earth as brass:

٢٠ 20 فَتُفْرَغُ بَاطِلًا قُوَّتُكُمْ، وَأَرْضُكُمْ لَا تُعْطِي غَلَّتَهَا، وَأَشْجَارُ ٱلْأَرْضِ لَا تُعْطِي أَثْمَارَهَا.

Your labour shall be spent in vain, the ground shall not bring forth her increase, nor the trees yield their fruit.

٢١ 21 «وَإِنْ سَلَكْتُمْ مَعِي بِٱلْخِلَافِ، وَلَمْ تَشَاءُوا أَنْ تَسْمَعُوا لِي، أَزِيدُ عَلَيْكُمْ ضَرْبَاتٍ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ حَسَبَ خَطَايَاكُمْ.

If you walk contrary to me, and will not hearken to me, I will bring seven times more plagues upon you for your sins:

٢٢ 22 أُطْلِقُ عَلَيْكُمْ وُحُوشَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فَتُعْدِمُكُمُ ٱلْأَوْلَادَ، وَتَقْرِضُ بَهَائِمَكُمْ، وَتُقَلِّلُكُمْ فَتُوحَشُ طُرُقُكُمْ.

And I will send in upon you the beasts of the held, to destroy you and your cattle, and make you few in number, and that your highways may be desolate.

٢٣ 23 «وَإِنْ لَمْ تَتَأَدَّبُوا مِنِّي بِذَلِكَ، بَلْ سَلَكْتُمْ مَعِي بِٱلْخِلَافِ،

And if even so you will not amend, but will walk contrary to me:

٢٤ 24 فَإِنِّي أَنَا أَسْلُكُ مَعَكُمْ بِٱلْخِلَافِ، وَأَضْرِبُكُمْ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ حَسَبَ خَطَايَاكُمْ.

I also will walk contrary to you, and will strike you seven times for your sins.

٢٥ 25 أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكُمْ سَيْفًا يَنْتَقِمُ نَقْمَةَ ٱلْمِيثَاقِ، فَتَجْتَمِعُونَ إِلَى مُدُنِكُمْ وَأُرْسِلُ فِي وَسَطِكُمُ ٱلْوَبَأَ فَتُدْفَعُونَ بِيَدِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ.

And I will bring in upon you the sword that shall avenge my covenant. And when you shall flee into the cities, I will send the pestilence in the midst of you, and you shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies,

٢٦ 26 بِكَسْرِي لَكُمْ عَصَا ٱلْخُبْزِ. تَخْبِزُ عَشَرُ نِسَاءٍ خُبْزَكُمْ فِي تَنُّورٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَيَرْدُدْنَ خُبْزَكُمْ بِٱلْوَزْنِ، فَتَأْكُلُونَ وَلَا تَشْبَعُونَ.

After I shall have broken the staff of your bread: so that ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and give it out by weight: and you shall eat, and shall not be filled.

٢٧ 27 «وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ بِذَلِكَ لَا تَسْمَعُونَ لِي بَلْ سَلَكْتُمْ مَعِي بِٱلْخِلَافِ،

But if you will not for all this hearken to me, but will walk against me:

٢٨ 28 فَأَنَا أَسْلُكُ مَعَكُمْ بِٱلْخِلَافِ سَاخِطًا، وَأُؤَدِّبُكُمْ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ حَسَبَ خَطَايَاكُمْ،

I will also go against you with opposite fury, and I will chastise you with seven plagues for your sins,

٢٩ 29 فَتَأْكُلُونَ لَحْمَ بَنِيكُمْ، وَلَحْمَ بَنَاتِكُمْ تَأْكُلُونَ.

So that you shall eat the flesh of your sons and of your daughters.

٣٠ 30 وَأُخْرِبُ مُرْتَفَعَاتِكُمْ، وَأَقْطَعُ شَمْسَاتِكُمْ، وَأُلْقِي جُثَثَكُمْ عَلَى جُثَثِ أَصْنَامِكُمْ، وَتَرْذُلُكُمْ نَفْسِي.

I will destroy your high places, and break your idols. You shall fall among the ruins of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.

٣١ 31 وَأُصَيِّرُ مُدُنَكُمْ خَرِبَةً، وَمَقَادِسَكُمْ مُوحِشَةً، وَلَا أَشْتَمُّ رَائِحَةَ سَرُورِكُمْ.

Insomuch that I will bring your cities to be a wilderness, and I will make your sanctuaries desolate, and will receive no more your sweet odours.

٣٢ 32 وَأُوحِشُ ٱلْأَرْضَ فَيَسْتَوْحِشُ مِنْهَا أَعْدَاؤُكُمُ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِيهَا.

And I will destroy your land, and your enemies shall be astonished at it, when they shall be the inhabitants thereof.

٣٣ 33 وَأُذَرِّيكُمْ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَأُجَرِّدُ وَرَاءَكُمُ ٱلسَّيْفَ فَتَصِيرُ أَرْضُكُمْ مُوحَشَةً، وَمُدُنُكُمْ تَصِيرُ خَرِبَةً.

And I will scatter you among the Gentiles, and I will draw out the sword after you, and your land shall be desert, and your cities destroyed.

٣٤ 34 حِينَئِذٍ تَسْتَوْفِي ٱلْأَرْضُ سُبُوتَهَا كُلَّ أَيَّامِ وَحْشَتِهَا وَأَنْتُمْ فِي أَرْضِ أَعْدَائِكُمْ. حِينَئِذٍ تَسْبِتُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَتَسْتَوْفِي سُبُوتَهَا.

Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths all the days of her desolation: when you shall be

٣٥ 35 كُلَّ أَيَّامِ وَحْشَتِهَا تَسْبِتُ مَا لَمْ تَسْبِتْهُ مِنْ سُبُوتِكُمْ فِي سَكَنِكُمْ عَلَيْهَا.

In the enemy’s land, she shall keep a sabbath, and rest in the sabbaths of her desolation, because she did not rest in your sabbaths when you dwelt therein.

٣٦ 36 وَٱلْبَاقُونَ مِنْكُمْ أُلْقِي ٱلْجَبَانَةَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ فِي أَرَاضِي أَعْدَائِهِمْ، فَيَهْزِمُهُمْ صَوْتُ وَرَقَةٍ مُنْدَفِعَةٍ، فَيَهْرُبُونَ كَٱلْهَرَبِ مِنَ ٱلسَّيْفِ، وَيَسْقُطُونَ وَلَيْسَ طَارِدٌ.

And as to them that shall remain of you I will send fear in their hearts in the countries of their enemies, the sound of a flying leaf shall terrify them, and they shall flee as it were from the sword: they shall fall, when no man pursueth them,

٣٧ 37 وَيَعْثُرُ بَعْضُهُمْ بِبَعْضٍ كَمَا مِنْ أَمَامِ ٱلسَّيْفِ وَلَيْسَ طَارِدٌ، وَلَا يَكُونُ لَكُمْ قِيَامٌ أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِكُمْ،

And they shall every one fall upon their brethren as fleeing from wars, none of you shall dare to resist your enemies.

٣٨ 38 فَتَهْلِكُونَ بَيْنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ وَتَأْكُلُكُمْ أَرْضُ أَعْدَائِكُمْ.

You shall perish among the Gentiles, and an enemy’s land shall consume you.

٣٩ 39 وَٱلْبَاقُونَ مِنْكُمْ يَفْنَوْنَ بِذُنُوبِهِمْ فِي أَرَاضِي أَعْدَائِكُمْ. وَأَيْضًا بِذُنُوبِ آبَائِهِمْ مَعَهُمْ يَفْنَوْنَ.

And if of them also some remain, they shall pine away in their iniquities, in the land of their enemies, and they shall be afflicted for the sins of their fathers, and their own:

٤٠ 40 لَكِنْ إِنْ أَقَرُّوا بِذُنُوبِهِمْ وَذُنُوبِ آبَائِهِمْ فِي خِيَانَتِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي خَانُونِي بِهَا، وَسُلُوكِهِمْ مَعِيَ ٱلَّذِي سَلَكُوا بِٱلْخِلَافِ،

Until they confess their iniquities and the iniquities of their ancestors, whereby they have transgressed me, and walked contrary unto me.

٤١ 41 وَإِنِّي أَيْضًا سَلَكْتُ مَعَهُمْ بِٱلْخِلَافِ وَأَتَيْتُ بِهِمْ إِلَى أَرْضِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ. إِلَّا أَنْ تَخْضَعَ حِينَئِذٍ قُلُوبُهُمُ ٱلْغُلْفُ، وَيَسْتَوْفُوا حِينَئِذٍ عَنْ ذُنُوبِهِمْ،

Therefore I also will walk them, and bring them into their enemies’ land until their uncircumcised mind be ashamed: then shall they pray for their sins.

٤٢ 42 أَذْكُرُ مِيثَاقِي مَعَ يَعْقُوبَ، وَأَذْكُرُ أَيْضًا مِيثَاقِي مَعَ إِسْحَاقَ، وَمِيثَاقِي مَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَأَذْكُرُ ٱلْأَرْضَ.

And I will remember my covenant, that I made with Jacob, and Isaac, and Abraham. I will remember also the land:

٤٣ 43 وَٱلْأَرْضُ تُتْرَكُ مِنْهُمْ وَتَسْتَوْفِي سُبُوتَهَا فِي وَحْشَتِهَا مِنْهُمْ، وَهُمْ يَسْتَوْفُونَ عَنْ ذُنُوبِهِمْ لِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ أَبَوْا أَحْكَامِي وَكَرِهَتْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ فَرَائِضِي.

Which when she shall be left by them, shall enjoy her sabbaths, being desolate for them. But they shall pray for their sins, because they rejected my judgments, and despised my laws.

٤٤ 44 وَلَكِنْ مَعَ ذَلِكَ أَيْضًا مَتَى كَانُوا فِي أَرْضِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ، مَا أَبَيْتُهُمْ وَلَا كَرِهْتُهُمْ حَتَّى أُبِيدَهُمْ وَأَنْكُثَ مِيثَاقِي مَعَهُمْ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُهُمْ.

And yet for all that when they were in the land of their enemies, I did not cast them off altogether, neither did I so despise them that they should be quite consumed, and I should make void my covenant with them. For I am the Lord their God.

٤٥ 45 بَلْ أَذْكُرُ لَهُمْ ٱلْمِيثَاقَ مَعَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَخْرَجْتُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ لِأَكُونَ لَهُمْ إِلَهًا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ».

And I will remember my former covenant, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, in the sight of the Gentiles, to be their God. I am the Lord.

٤٦ 46 هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْفَرَائِضُ وَٱلْأَحْكَامُ وَٱلشَّرَائِعُ ٱلَّتِي وَضَعَهَا ٱلرَّبُّ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ بِيَدِ مُوسَى.

These are the judgments, and precepts, and laws, which the Lord gave between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.
