1 صَمُوئيل 16
| وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِصَمُوئِيلَ: «إِلَى مَتَى تَظَلُّ تَنُوحُ عَلَى شَاوُلَ وَأَنَا قَدْ رَفَضْتُهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَلِكاً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ امْلأْ قَرْنَكَ بِالزَّيْتِ وَتَعَالَ أُرْسِلْكَ إِلَى يَسَّى الْمُقِيمِ فِي بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ، لأَنِّي قَدِ اخْتَرْتُ أَحَدَ أَبْنَائِهِ لِيَكُونَ مَلِكاً». | ١ 1 |
The LORD said to Samuel, "How long will you mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him from being king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go. I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite; for I have provided a king for myself among his sons."
| فَقَالَ صَمُوئِيلُ: «كَيْفَ أَذْهَبُ؟ إِنْ بَلَغَ شَاوُلَ الأَمْرُ يَقْتُلْنِي». فَأَجَابَهُ الرَّبُّ: «خُذْ مَعَكَ عِجْلَةً وَقُلْ قَدْ جِئْتُ لأَذْبَحَ لِلرَّبِّ. | ٢ 2 |
Samuel said, "How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me." The LORD said, "Take a heifer with you, and say, I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.
| وَادْعُ يَسَّى لِحُضُورِ تَقْدِيمِ الذَّبِيحَةِ وَأَنَا أُلَقِّنُكَ مَاذَا تَصْنَعُ، فَتَمْسَحُ لِي مَنْ أَقُولُ لَكَ عَنْهُ». | ٣ 3 |
Call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do. You shall anoint to me him whom I name to you."
| فَفَعَلَ صَمُوئِيلُ بِمُوْجِبِ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ الرَّبُّ. وَذَهَبَ إِلَى بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ. فَاضْطَرَبَ شُيُوخُ الْمَدِينَةِ لَدَى اسْتِقْبَالِهِ وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «هَلْ لِلسَّلامِ حَضَرْتَ؟» | ٤ 4 |
And Samuel did what the LORD said, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the city came to meet him trembling. And they said, "Is your visit peaceful, seer?"
| فَأَجَابَ: «نَعَمْ، لِلسَّلامِ. لَقَدْ حَضَرْتُ لأُقَرِّبَ لِلرَّبِّ. طَهِّرُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ وَتَعَالَوْا مَعِي إِلَى الذَّبِيحَةِ». وَقَدَّسَ يَسَّى أَبْنَاءَهُ وَدَعَاهُمْ لِلذَّبِيحَةِ. | ٥ 5 |
And he said, "Peaceful; I have come to sacrifice to the LORD. Sanctify yourselves and come with me to the sacrifice." He sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.
| وَعِنْدَمَا أَقْبَلُوا وَشَاهَدَ صَمُوئِيلُ أَلِيآبَ بْنَ يَسَّى قَالَ: «إِنَّ هَذَا هُوَ مُخْتَارُ الرَّبِّ». | ٦ 6 |
It happened, when they had come, that he looked at Eliab, and said, "Surely the LORD's anointed is before him."
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِصَمُوئِيلَ: «لا تُلْقِ بَالاً إِلَى وَسَامَتِهِ وَطُولِ قَامَتِهِ إِذ لَيْسَ هَذَا مَنِ اخْتَرْتُهُ، فَنَظْرَةُ الرَّبِّ تَخْتَلِفُ عَنْ نَظْرَةِ الإِنْسَانِ، لأَنَّ الإِنْسَانَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْمَظْهَرِ الْخَارِجِيِّ وَأَمَّا الرَّبُّ فَإِنَّهُ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْقَلْبِ». | ٧ 7 |
But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For humans do not see as God sees, for humans look at the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart."
| وَدَعَا يَسَّى ابْنَهُ أَبِينَادَابَ وَأَجَازَهُ أَمَامَ صَمُوئِيلَ، فَقَالَ: «وَهَذَا أَيْضاً لَمْ يَخْتَرْهُ الرَّبُّ». | ٨ 8 |
Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. He said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one."
| ثُمَّ قَدَّمَ يَسَّى شَمَّةَ، فَقَالَ صَمُوئِيلُ: «وَهَذَا أَيْضاً لَمْ يَخْتَرْهُ الرَّبُّ». | ٩ 9 |
Then Jesse made Shimeah to pass by. He said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one."
| وَعِنْدَمَا انْتَهَى يَسَّى مِنْ تَقْدِيمِ أَبْنَائِهِ السَّبْعَةِ، قَالَ صَمُوئِيلُ لِيَسَّى: «إِنَّ الرَّبَّ لَمْ يَخْتَرْ وَاحِداً مِنْ هَؤُلاءِ». | ١٠ 10 |
And Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel. But Samuel said, "The LORD has not chosen these."
| ثُمَّ اسْتَطْرَدَ: «هَلْ لَكَ أَبْنَاءٌ آخَرُونَ؟» فَأَجَابَ يَسَّى: «بَقِيَ بَعْدُ أَصْغَرُهُمْ وَهُوَ يَرْعَى الْغَنَمَ». فَقَالَ صَمُوئِيلُ لِيَسَّى: «أَرْسِلْ مَنْ يَأْتِي بِهِ لأَنَّنَا لَنْ نَتَّكِئَ حَتَّى يَصِلَ إِلَى هُنَا». | ١١ 11 |
Then Samuel said to Jesse, "Are all your children here?" And he said, "There remains yet the youngest. Look, he is tending the sheep." And Samuel said to Jesse, "Send and get him, for we will not sit down until he comes here."
| فَبَعَثَ يَسَّى مَنِ اسْتَدْعَاهُ، وَكَانَ فَتىً أَشْقَرَ، أَخَّاذَ الْعَيْنَيْنِ وَسِيمَ الطَّلْعَةِ. فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «قُمِ امْسَحْهُ، لأَنَّ هَذَا هُوَ مَنِ اخْتَرْتُهُ». | ١٢ 12 |
So he sent and brought him in. And he was reddish brown, and had beautiful eyes, and was handsome. And the LORD said, "Arise, anoint him, for he is the one."
| فَتَنَاوَلَ صَمُوئِيلُ قَرْنَ الزَّيْتِ وَمَسَحَهُ أَمَامَ إِخْوَتِهِ. وَمُنْذُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ فَصَاعِداً حَلَّ رُوحُ الرَّبِّ عَلَى دَاوُدَ. ثُمَّ رَجَعَ صَمُوئِيلُ إِلَى الرَّامَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brothers: and the Ruach of the LORD came mightily on David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.
| وَفَارَقَ رُوحُ الرَّبِّ شَاوُلَ وَهَاجَمَهُ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ رُوحٌ رَدِيءٌ يُعَذِّبُهُ. | ١٤ 14 |
Now the Ruach of the LORD departed from Saul, and a harmful spirit from the LORD tormented him.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ رِجَالُهُ: «إِنَّ رُوحاً رَدِيئاً يُعَذِّبُكَ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ. | ١٥ 15 |
Saul's servants said to him, "See now, a harmful spirit from God is tormenting you.
| فَلْيَأْمُرْ سَيِّدُنَا خُدَّامَهُ الْمَاثِلِينَ أَمَامَهُ أَنْ يَبْحَثُوا لَهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مَاهِرٍ فِي الْعَزْفِ عَلَى الْعُودِ، فَيَعْزِفُ أَمَامَكَ كُلَّمَا هَاجَمَكَ الرُّوحُ الرَّدِيءُ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ فَتَطِيبُ نَفْسُكَ». | ١٦ 16 |
Let our lord now command your servants who are before you, to seek out a man who is a skillful player on the harp. It shall happen, when the harmful spirit is on you, that he shall play with his hand, and you shall be well, and it will give you relief."
| فَطَلَبَ شَاوُلُ مِنْ خُدَّامِهِ أَنْ يَبْحَثُوا لَهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مَاهِرٍ فِي الْعَزْفِ وَيُحْضِرُوهُ إِلَيْهِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Saul said to his servants, "Provide me now a man who can play well, and bring him to me."
| فَقَالَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الْغِلْمَانِ: «لَقَدْ شَاهَدْتُ ابْناً لِيَسَّى البَيْتَلَحْمِيِّ مَاهِراً فِي الْعَزْفِ وَهُوَ بَطَلٌ جَبَّارٌ وَرَجُلُ حَرْبٍ، فَصِيحُ اللِّسَانِ وَبَهِيُّ الطَّلْعَةِ وَالرَّبُّ مَعَهُ». | ١٨ 18 |
Then one of the young men answered, and said, "Look, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, and a mighty man of valor, and a warrior, and articulate in speech, and a handsome man; and the LORD is with him."
| فَأَوْفَدَ شَاوُلُ رُسُلاً إِلَى يَسَّى قَائِلاً: «أَرْسِلْ إِلَيَّ دَاوُدَ ابْنَكَ الَّذِي يَرْعَى الْغَنَمَ». | ١٩ 19 |
Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, "Send me David your son, who is with the sheep."
| فَأَعَدَّ يَسَّى حِمَاراً حَمَّلَهُ خُبْزاً وَزِقَّ خَمْرٍ وَجَدْيَ مِعْزَى، وَأَرْسَلَهَا مَعَ دَاوُدَ إِلَى شَاوُلَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And Jesse took a donkey and loaded it with an omer of bread, and a skin of wine, and a young goat, and sent them by David his son to Saul.
| فَمَثُلَ دَاوُدُ أَمَامَ شَاوُلَ فَأَحَبَّهُ وَجَعَلَهُ حَامِلَ سِلاحِهِ. | ٢١ 21 |
David came to Saul, and stood before him. He loved him greatly; and he became his armor bearer.
| وَأَرْسَلَ شَاوُلُ إِلَى يَسَّى يَقُولُ: «دَعْ دَاوُدَ يَبْقَى فِي خِدْمَتِي لأَنَّهُ قَدْ حَظِيَ بِإِعْجَابِي». | ٢٢ 22 |
Saul sent to Jesse, saying, "Please let David stand before me; for he has found favor in my sight."
| وَحَدَثَ عِنْدَمَا هَاجَمَ الرُّوحُ الرَّدِيءُ الْمُرْسَلُ مِنْ قِبَلِ الرَّبِّ شَاوُلَ، أَنَّ دَاوُدَ تَنَاوَلَ الْعُودَ وَعَزَفَ عَلَيْهِ، فَكَانَ الْهُدُوءُ يَسْتَوْلِي عَلَى شَاوُلَ وَتَطِيبُ نَفْسُهُ وَيُفَارِقُهُ الرُّوحُ الرَّدِيءُ. | ٢٣ 23 |
It happened, when the spirit from God was on Saul, that David took the harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the harmful spirit departed from him.
