اَلْعَدَد 24
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى بَلْعَامُ أَنَّهُ يَحْسُنُ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ يُبَارِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، لَمْ يَنْطَلِقْ كَٱلْمَرَّةِ ٱلْأُولَى وَٱلثَّانِيَةِ لِيُوافِيَ فَأْلًا، بَلْ جَعَلَ نَحْوَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ وَجْهَهُ. | ١ 1 |
And when Balaam saw that it pleased YHWH to bless Israel, he went not, as at other times, to seek for enchantments, but he set his face toward the wilderness.
| وَرَفَعَ بَلْعَامُ عَيْنَيْهِ وَرَأَى إِسْرَائِيلَ حَالًّا حَسَبَ أَسْبَاطِهِ، فَكَانَ عَلَيْهِ رُوحُ ٱللهِ، | ٢ 2 |
And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding in his tents according to their tribes; and the spirit of Elohim came upon him.
| فَنَطَقَ بِمَثَلِهِ وَقَالَ: «وَحْيُ بَلْعَامَ بْنِ بَعُورَ. وَحْيُ ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلْمَفْتُوحِ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ. | ٣ 3 |
And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
| وَحْيُ ٱلَّذِي يَسْمَعُ أَقْوَالَ ٱللهِ. ٱلَّذِي يَرَى رُؤْيَا ٱلْقَدِيرِ، مَطْرُوحًا وَهُوَ مَكْشُوفُ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ: | ٤ 4 |
He hath said, which heard the words of El, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open:
| مَا أَحْسَنَ خِيَامَكَ يَا يَعْقُوبُ، مَسَاكِنَكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ! | ٥ 5 |
How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel!
| كَأَوْدِيَةٍ مُمْتَدَّةٍ. كَجَنَّاتٍ عَلَى نَهْرٍ، كَشَجَرَاتِ عُودٍ غَرَسَهَا ٱلرَّبُّ. كَأَرْزَاتٍ عَلَى مِيَاهٍ. | ٦ 6 |
As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of lign aloes which YHWH hath planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters.
| يَجْرِي مَاءٌ مِنْ دِلَائِهِ، وَيَكُونُ زَرْعُهُ عَلَى مِيَاهٍ غَزِيرَةٍ، وَيَتَسَامَى مَلِكُهُ عَلَى أَجَاجَ وَتَرْتَفِعُ مَمْلَكَتُهُ. | ٧ 7 |
He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted.
| ٱللهُ أَخْرَجَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ. لَهُ مِثْلُ سُرْعَةِ ٱلرِّئْمِ. يَأْكُلُ أُمَمًا، مُضَايِقِيهِ، وَيَقْضِمُ عِظَامَهُمْ وَيُحَطِّمُ سِهَامَهُ. | ٨ 8 |
El brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows.
| جَثَمَ كَأَسَدٍ. رَبَضَ كَلَبْوَةٍ. مَنْ يُقِيمُهُ؟ مُبَارِكُكَ مُبَارَكٌ، وَلَاعِنُكَ مَلْعُونٌ». | ٩ 9 |
He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee.
| فَٱشْتَعَلَ غَضَبُ بَالَاقَ عَلَى بَلْعَامَ، وَصَفَّقَ بِيَدَيْهِ وَقَالَ بَالَاقُ لِبَلْعَامَ: «لِتَشْتِمَ أَعْدَائِي دَعَوْتُكَ، وَهُوَذَا أَنْتَ قَدْ بَارَكْتَهُمُ ٱلْآنَ ثَلَاثَ دَفَعَاتٍ. | ١٠ 10 |
And Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together: and Balak said unto Balaam, I called thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast altogether blessed them these three times.
| فَٱلْآنَ ٱهْرُبْ إِلَى مَكَانِكَ. قُلْتُ أُكْرِمُكَ إِكْرَامًا، وَهُوَذَا ٱلرَّبُّ قَدْ مَنَعَكَ عَنِ ٱلْكَرَامَةِ». | ١١ 11 |
Therefore now flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great honour; but, lo, YHWH hath kept thee back from honour.
| فَقَالَ بَلْعَامُ لِبَالَاقَ: «أَلَمْ أُكَلِّمْ أَيْضًا رُسُلَكَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَرْسَلْتَ إِلَيَّ قَائِلًا: | ١٢ 12 |
And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest unto me, saying,
| وَلَوْ أَعْطَانِي بَالَاقُ مِلْءَ بَيْتِهِ فِضَّةً وَذَهَبًا لَا أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَتَجَاوَزَ قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِأَعْمَلَ خَيْرًا أَوْ شَرًّا مِنْ نَفْسِي. ٱلَّذِي يَتَكَلَّمُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِيَّاهُ أَتَكَلَّمُ. | ١٣ 13 |
If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the commandment of YHWH, to do either good or bad of mine own mind; but what YHWH saith, that will I speak?
| وَٱلْآنَ هُوَذَا أَنَا مُنْطَلِقٌ إِلَى شَعْبِي. هَلُمَّ أُنْبِئْكَ بِمَا يَفْعَلُهُ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبُ بِشَعْبِكَ فِي آخِرِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ». | ١٤ 14 |
And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days.
| ثُمَّ نَطَقَ بِمَثَلِهِ وَقَالَ: «وَحْيُ بَلْعَامَ بْنِ بَعُورَ. وَحْيُ ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلْمَفْتُوحِ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said:
| وَحْيُ ٱلَّذِي يَسْمَعُ أَقْوَالَ ٱللهِ وَيَعْرِفُ مَعْرِفَةَ ٱلْعَلِيِّ. ٱلَّذِي يَرَى رُؤْيَا ٱلْقَدِيرِ سَاقِطًا وَهُوَ مَكْشُوفُ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ: | ١٦ 16 |
He hath said, which heard the words of Elohim, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open:
| أَرَاهُ وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ ٱلْآنَ. أُبْصِرُهُ وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ قَرِيبًا. يَبْرُزُ كَوْكَبٌ مِنْ يَعْقُوبَ، وَيَقُومُ قَضِيبٌ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَيُحَطِّمُ طَرَفَيْ مُوآبَ، وَيُهْلِكُ كُلَّ بَنِي ٱلْوَغَى. | ١٧ 17 |
I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.
| وَيَكُونُ أَدُومُ مِيرَاثًا، وَيَكُونُ سِعِيرُ أَعْدَاؤُهُ مِيرَاثًا. وَيَصْنَعُ إِسْرَائِيلُ بِبَأْسٍ. | ١٨ 18 |
And Edom shall be a possession, Seir also shall be a possession for his enemies; and Israel shall do valiantly.
| وَيَتَسَلَّطُ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ يَعْقُوبَ، وَيَهْلِكُ ٱلشَّارِدُ مِنْ مَدِينَةٍ». | ١٩ 19 |
Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall destroy him that remaineth of the city.
| ثُمَّ رَأَى عَمَالِيقَ فَنَطَقَ بِمَثَلِهِ وَقَالَ: «عَمَالِيقُ أَوَّلُ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَأَمَّا آخِرَتُهُ فَإِلَى ٱلْهَلَاكِ». | ٢٠ 20 |
And when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, Amalek was the first of the nations; but his latter end shall be that he perish for ever.
| ثُمَّ رَأَى ٱلْقِينِيَّ فَنَطَقَ بِمَثَلِهِ وَقَالَ: «لِيَكُنْ مَسْكَنُكَ مَتِينًا، وَعُشُّكَ مَوْضُوعًا فِي صَخْرَةٍ. | ٢١ 21 |
And he looked on the Kenites, and took up his parable, and said, Strong is thy dwellingplace, and thou puttest thy nest in a rock.
| لَكِنْ يَكُونُ قَايِنُ لِلدَّمَارِ. حَتَّى مَتَى يَسْتَأْسِرُكَ أَشُّورُ؟». | ٢٢ 22 |
Nevertheless the Kenite shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry thee away captive.
| ثُمَّ نَطَقَ بِمَثَلِهِ وَقَالَ: «آهْ! مَنْ يَعِيشُ حِينَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ؟ | ٢٣ 23 |
And he took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when El doeth this!
| وَتَأْتِي سُفُنٌ مِنْ نَاحِيَةِ كِتِّيمَ وَتُخْضِعُ أَشُّورَ، وَتُخْضِعُ عَابِرَ، فَهُوَ أَيْضًا إِلَى ٱلْهَلَاكِ». | ٢٤ 24 |
And ships shall come from the coast of Chittim, and shall afflict Asshur, and shall afflict Eber, and he also shall perish for ever.
| ثُمَّ قَامَ بَلْعَامُ وَٱنْطَلَقَ وَرَجَعَ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ. وَبَالَاقُ أَيْضًا ذَهَبَ فِي طَرِيقِهِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way.
