مَلَاخِي 1
| وَحْيُ كَلِمَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ يَدِ مَلَاخِي: | ١ 1 |
The burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi.
| «أَحْبَبْتُكُمْ، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ. وَقُلْتُمْ: بِمَ أَحْبَبْتَنَا؟ أَلَيْسَ عِيسُو أَخًا لِيَعْقُوبَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأَحْبَبْتُ يَعْقُوبَ | ٢ 2 |
I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, How hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob’s brother? saith the LORD: yet I loved Jacob,
| وَأَبْغَضْتُ عِيسُوَ، وَجَعَلْتُ جِبَالَهُ خَرَابًا وَمِيرَاثَهُ لِذِئَابِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ؟ | ٣ 3 |
And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.
| لِأَنَّ أَدُومَ قَالَ: قَدْ هُدِمْنَا، فَنَعُودُ وَنَبْنِي ٱلْخِرَبُ. هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: هُمْ يَبْنُونَ وَأَنَا أَهْدِمُ. وَيَدْعُونَهُمْ تُخُومَ ٱلشَّرِّ، وَٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلَّذِي غَضِبَ عَلَيْهِ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ٤ 4 |
Though Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever.
| فَتَرَى أَعْيُنُكُمْ وَتَقُولُونَ: لِيَتَعَظَّمِ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ عِنْدِ تُخْمِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٥ 5 |
And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, The LORD will be magnified from the border of Israel.
| «ٱلِٱبْنُ يُكْرِمُ أَبَاهُ، وَٱلْعَبْدُ يُكْرِمُ سَيِّدَهُ. فَإِنْ كُنْتُ أَنَا أَبًا، فَأَيْنَ كَرَامَتِي؟ وَإِنْ كُنْتُ سَيِّدًا، فَأَيْنَ هَيْبَتِي؟ قَالَ لَكُمْ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. أَيُّهَا ٱلْكَهَنَةُ ٱلْمُحْتَقِرُونَ ٱسْمِي. وَتَقُولُونَ: بِمَ ٱحْتَقَرْنَا ٱسْمَكَ؟ | ٦ 6 |
A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I am a father, where is my honour? and if I am a master, where is my fear? saith the LORD of hosts to you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, How have we despised thy name?
| تُقَرِّبُونَ خُبْزًا نَجِسًا عَلَى مَذْبَحِي. وَتَقُولُونَ: بِمَ نَجَّسْنَاكَ؟ بِقَوْلِكُمْ: إِنَّ مَائِدَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ مُحْتَقَرَةٌ. | ٧ 7 |
Ye offer polluted bread upon my altar; and ye say, How have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of the LORD is contemptible.
| وَإِنْ قَرَّبْتُمُ ٱلْأَعْمَى ذَبِيحَةً، أَفَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ شَرًّا؟ وَإِنْ قَرَّبْتُمُ ٱلْأَعْرَجَ وَٱلسَّقِيمَ، أَفَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ شَرًّا؟ قَرِّبْهُ لِوَالِيكَ، أَفَيَرْضَى عَلَيْكَ أَوْ يَرْفَعُ وَجْهَكَ؟ قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. | ٨ 8 |
And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now to thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person? saith the LORD of hosts.
| وَٱلْآنَ تَرَضَّوْا وَجْهَ ٱللهِ فَيَتَرَاءَفَ عَلَيْنَا. هَذِهِ كَانَتْ مِنْ يَدِكُمْ. هَلْ يَرْفَعُ وَجْهَكُمْ؟ قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. | ٩ 9 |
And now, I pray you, beseech God that he will be gracious to us: this hath been by your means: will he regard your person? saith the LORD of hosts.
| «مَنْ فِيكُمْ يُغْلِقُ ٱلْبَابَ! بَلْ لَا تُوقِدُونَ عَلَى مَذْبَحِي مَجَّانًا. لَيْسَتْ لِي مَسَّرَةٌ بِكُمْ، قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، وَلَا أَقْبَلُ تَقْدِمَةً مِنْ يَدِكُمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nought? neither do ye kindle fire on my altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith the LORD of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand.
| لِأَنَّهُ مِنْ مَشْرِقِ ٱلشَّمْسِ إِلَى مَغْرِبِهَا ٱسْمِي عَظِيمٌ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَفِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ يُقَرَّبُ لِٱسْمِي بَخُورٌ وَتَقْدِمَةٌ طَاهِرَةٌ، لِأَنَّ ٱسْمِي عَظِيمٌ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. | ١١ 11 |
For from the rising of the sun even to the setting of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered to my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the LORD of hosts.
| أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَمُنَجِّسُوهُ، بِقَوْلِكُمْ: إِنَّ مَائِدَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ تَنَجَّسَتْ، وَثَمَرَتَهَا مُحْتَقَرٌ طَعَامُهَا. | ١٢ 12 |
But ye have profaned it, in that ye say, The table of the LORD is polluted; and the fruit of it, even his food, is contemptible.
| وَقُلْتُمْ: مَا هَذِهِ ٱلْمَشَقَّةُ؟ وَتَأَفَّفْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ، قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. وَجِئْتُمْ بِٱلْمُغْتَصَبِ وَٱلْأَعْرَجِ وَٱلسَّقِيمِ، فَأَتَيْتُمْ بِٱلتَّقْدِمَةِ. فَهَلْ أَقْبَلُهَا مِنْ يَدِكُمْ؟ قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٣ 13 |
Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness is it! and ye have sneered at it, saith the LORD of hosts; and ye brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this from your hand? saith the LORD.
| وَمَلْعُونٌ ٱلْمَاكِرُ ٱلَّذِي يُوجَدُ فِي قَطِيعِهِ ذَكَرٌ وَيَنْذُرُ وَيَذْبَحُ لِلسَّيِّدِ عَائِبًا. لِأَنِّي أَنَا مَلِكٌ عَظِيمٌ، قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، وَٱسْمِي مَهِيبٌ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. | ١٤ 14 |
But cursed be the deceiver, who hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth to the Lord a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, saith the LORD of hosts, and my name is terrible among the heathen.
