1 صَمُوئيل 25
| وَمَاتَ صَمُوئِيلُ، فَاجْتَمَعَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَنَاحُوا عَلَيْهِ وَدَفَنُوهُ فِي بَيْتِهِ فِي الرَّامَةِ. فَانْتَقَلَ دَاوُدُ إِلَى صَحْرَاءِ فَارَانَ. | ١ 1 |
Samuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together and mourned for him, and buried him at his house at Ramah. Then David arose and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
| وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ رَجُلٌ ثَرِيٌّ مُقِيمٌ فِي مَدِينَةِ مَعُونَ ذُو أَمْلاكٍ فِي الْكَرْمَلِ حَيْثُ كَانَ يَجُزُّ غَنَمَهُ، وَكَانَتْ ثَرْوَتُهُ طَائِلَةً جِدّاً، إِذْ كَانَ يَمْتَلِكُ ثَلاثَةَ آلافِ رَأْسٍ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ وَأَلْفاً مِنَ الْمَعْزِ. | ٢ 2 |
There was a man in Maon whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great. He had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats; and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
| وَكَانَ اسْمُ الرَّجُلِ نَابَالَ، وَاسْمُ امْرَأَتِهِ أَبِيجَايِلَ. وَكَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فَاتِنَةَ الْجَمَالِ رَاجِحَةَ الْعَقْلِ، أَمَّا الرَّجُلُ فَكَانَ قَاسِياً سَيِّئَ الأَعْمَالِ، وَهُوَ يَنْتَمِي إِلَى عَشِيرَةِ كَالَبَ. | ٣ 3 |
Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail. This woman was intelligent and had a beautiful face; but the man was surly and evil in his doings. He was of the house of Caleb.
| فَبَلَغَ دَاوُدَ، وَهُوَ لَا يَزَالُ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ، أَنَّ نَابَالَ يَجُزُّ غَنَمَهُ. | ٤ 4 |
David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
| فَبَعَثَ دَاوُدُ بِعَشَرَةِ غِلْمَانٍ أَوْصَاهُمْ أَنْ يَنْطَلِقُوا إِلَى الْكَرْمَلِ وَيَدْخُلُوا بَيْتَ نَابَالَ وَيُبْلِغُوهُ تَمَنِّيَاتِ دَاوُدَ، وَيَقُولُوا لَهُ: | ٥ 5 |
David sent ten young men; and David said to the young men, “Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.
| «أَطَالَ اللهُ بَقَاءَكَ، وَجَعَلَكَ أَنْتَ وَبَيْتَكَ وَكُلَّ مَالَكَ سَالِماً. | ٦ 6 |
Tell him, ‘Long life to you! Peace be to you! Peace be to your house! Peace be to all that you have!
| لَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ أَنَّ عِنْدَكَ جَزَّازِينَ. حِينَ كَانَ رُعَاتُكَ بَيْنَنَا لَمْ نُؤْذِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُفْقَدْ لَهُمْ شَيْءٌ طَوَالَ الأَيَّامِ الَّتِي كَانُوا فِيهَا فِي الْكَرْمَلِ. | ٧ 7 |
Now I have heard that you have shearers. Your shepherds have now been with us, and we did not harm them. Nothing was missing from them all the time they were in Carmel.
| تَحَرَّ الأَمْرَ مِنْ غِلْمَانِكَ فَيُخْبِرُوكَ. لِذَلِكَ لِيَحْظَ غِلْمَانِي بِرِضَاكَ، فَقَدْ جِئْنَا إِلَيْكَ فِي يَوْمِ عِيدٍ، فَهَبْ عَبِيدَكَ وَابْنَكَ دَاوُدَ مَا تَجُودُ بِهِ نَفْسُكَ». | ٨ 8 |
Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favor in your eyes, for we come on a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand to your servants and to your son David.’”
| فَقَدِمَ الْغِلْمَانُ إِلَى نَابَالَ وَأَبْلَغُوهُ هَذَا الْكَلامَ بِاسْمِ دَاوُدَ وَصَمَتُوا. | ٩ 9 |
When David’s young men came, they spoke to Nabal all those words in the name of David, and waited.
| فَأَجَابَهُمْ نَابَالُ: «مَنْ هُوَ دَاوُدُ؟ وَمَنْ هُوَ ابْنُ يَسَّى؟ قَدْ كَثُرَ الْيَوْمَ الْعَبِيدُ الْهَارِبُونَ مِنْ أَسْيَادِهِمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
Nabal answered David’s servants and said, “Who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants who break away from their masters these days.
| هَلْ آخُذُ خُبْزِي وَمَائِي وَذَبِيحَتِي الَّتِي جَهَّزْتُهَا لِجَازِّيَّ وَأُعْطِيهَا لِقَوْمٍ لَا أَعْلَمُ مِنْ أَيْنَ هُمْ؟» | ١١ 11 |
Shall I then take my bread, my water, and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men who I do not know where they come from?”
| فَانْصَرَفَ غِلْمَانُ دَاوُدَ وَرَجَعُوا إِلَى دَاوُدَ فَأَخْبَرُوهُ بِكَلامِ نَابَالَ. | ١٢ 12 |
So David’s young men turned on their way and went back, and came and told him all these words.
| فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِرِجَالِهِ: «لِيَتَقَلَّدْ كُلٌّ مِنْكُمْ سَيْفَهُ». فَتَقَلَّدُوا سُيُوفَهُمْ، وَكَذَلِكَ فَعَلَ دَاوُدُ، وَسَارَ عَلَى رَأْسِ أَرْبَعِ مِئَةِ رَجُلٍ بَعْدَ أَنْ مَكَثَ مِئَتَانِ لِحِرَاسَةِ الأَمْتِعَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
David said to his men, “Every man put on his sword!” Every man put on his sword. David also put on his sword. About four hundred men followed David, and two hundred stayed by the baggage.
| فَقَالَ أَحَدُ الْغِلْمَانِ لأَبِيجَايِلَ امْرَأَةِ نَابَالَ: «بَعَثَ دَاوُدُ مِنَ الصَّحْرَاءِ رُسُلاً بِتَحِيَّاتٍ إِلَى سَيِّدِنَا فَأَهَانَهُمْ، | ١٤ 14 |
But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, “Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master; and he insulted them.
| مَعَ أَنَّ الرِّجَالَ أَحْسَنُوا إِلَيْنَا جِدّاً فَلَمْ نُصَبْ بِأَذىً أَوْ يُفْقَدْ لَنَا شَيْءٌ طَوَالَ الْمُدَّةِ الَّتِي تَجَاوَرْنَا فِيهَا مَعَهُمْ وَنَحْنُ فِي الْمَرْعَى. | ١٥ 15 |
But the men were very good to us, and we were not harmed, and we did not miss anything as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields.
| كَانُوا سِيَاجَ أَمَانٍ لَنَا نَهَاراً وَلَيْلاً فِي كُلِّ الأَيَّامِ الَّتِي كُنَّا نَرْعَى فِيهَا الْغَنَمَ فِي جِوَارِهِمْ. | ١٦ 16 |
They were a wall to us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
| فَفَكِّرِي بِالأَمْرِ وَانْظُرِي مَاذَا يُمْكِنُ أَنْ تَصْنَعِي، لأَنَّ كَارِثَةً سَتَحُلُّ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا وَعَلَى بَيْتِهِ، فَهُوَ رَجُلٌ شِرِّيرٌ لَا يُمْكِنُ التَّفَاهُمُ مَعَهُ». | ١٧ 17 |
Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master and against all his house, for he is such a worthless fellow that one cannot speak to him.”
| فَأَسْرَعَتْ أَبِيجَايِلُ وَأَخَذَتْ مِئَتَيْ رَغِيفِ خُبْزٍ وَزِقَّيْ خَمْرٍ وَخَمْسَةَ خِرْفَانٍ مُجَهَّزَةٍ مُطَيَّبَةٍ وَخَمْسَ كَيْلاتٍ مِنَ الْفَرِيكِ وَمِئَتَيْ عُنْقُودِ زَبِيبٍ وَمِئَتَيْ قُرْصِ تِينٍ، وَحَمَّلَتْهَا عَلَى الْحَمِيرِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two containers of wine, five sheep ready dressed, five seahs of parched grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.
| وَقَالَتْ لِخُدَّامِهَا: «اسْبِقُونِي، هَا أَنَا قَادِمَةٌ وَرَاءَكُمْ». وَلَمْ تُخْبِرْ رَجُلَهَا نَابَالَ بِمَا فَعَلَتْ. | ١٩ 19 |
She said to her young men, “Go on before me. Behold, I am coming after you.” But she did not tell her husband, Nabal.
| وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَتْ رَاكِبَةً عَلَى حِمَارِهَا عِنْدَ مُنْعَطَفِ الْجَبَلِ صَادَفَتْ دَاوُدَ وَرِجَالَهُ قَادِمِينَ لِلِقَائِهَا. | ٢٠ 20 |
As she rode on her donkey, and came down hidden by the mountain, behold, David and his men came down toward her, and she met them.
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ آنَئِذٍ يُحَدِّثُ نَفْسَهُ: «لَقَدْ حَافَظْتُ عَلَى كُلِّ قُطْعَانِ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ، فَكَافَأَنِي شَرّاً بَدَلَ الْخَيْرِ. | ٢١ 21 |
Now David had said, “Surely in vain I have kept all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained to him. He has returned me evil for good.
| فَلْيُضَاعِفِ الرَّبُّ مِنْ عِقَابِ دَاوُدَ، إِنْ لَمْ أَقْضِ عَلَى كُلِّ رِجَالِهِ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ ضَوْءِ الصَّبَاحِ». | ٢٢ 22 |
God do so to the enemies of David, and more also, if I leave of all that belongs to him by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”
| وَعِنْدَمَا شَاهَدَتْ أَبِيجَايِلُ دَاوُدَ أَسْرَعَتْ وَتَرَجَّلَتْ عَنِ الْحِمَارِ وَخَرَّتْ أَمَامَهُ سَاجِدَةً، | ٢٣ 23 |
When Abigail saw David, she hurried and got off her donkey, and fell before David on her face and bowed herself to the ground.
| وَانْطَرَحَتْ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ قَائِلَةً: «ضَعِ اللَّوْمَ عَلَيَّ وَحْدِي يَا سَيِّدِي، وَدَعْ أَمَتَكَ تَتَكَلَّمُ فِي مَسَامِعِكَ وَأَصْغِ إِلَى حَدِيثِهَا. | ٢٤ 24 |
She fell at his feet and said, “On me, my lord, on me be the blame! Please let your servant speak in your ears. Hear the words of your servant.
| لَا يَضْغَنْ قَلْبُ سَيِّدِي عَلَى هَذَا الرَّجُلِ اللَّئِيمِ نَابَالَ، فَهُوَ فَظٌّ كَاسْمِهِ وَالْحَمَاقَةُ مَقْرُونَةٌ بِهِ، أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَمْ أَرَ رِجَالَ سَيِّدِي حِينَ أَرْسَلْتَهُمْ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Please do not let my lord pay attention to this worthless fellow, Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your servant, did not see my lord’s young men whom you sent.
| وَالآنَ أُقْسِمُ لَكَ بِالرَّبِّ الْحَيِّ وَبِحَيَاتِكَ، إِنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ جَنَّبَكَ سَفْكَ الدِّمَاءِ وَالثَّأْرَ لِنَفْسِكَ، وَلْيَكُنْ أَعْدَاؤُكَ وَمَنْ يَسْعَوْنَ فِي هَلاكِكَ، كَنَابَالَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, since the LORD has withheld you from blood guiltiness and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now therefore let your enemies and those who seek evil to my lord be as Nabal.
| فَتَقَبَّلِ الآنَ هَذِهِ الْبَرَكَةَ الَّتِي أَحْضَرَتْهَا جَارِيَتُكَ يَا سَيِّدِي وَأَعْطِهَا لِرِجَالِكَ الْمُلْتَفِّينَ حَوْلَكَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Now this present which your servant has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men who follow my lord.
| وَاعْفُ عَنْ ذَنْبِ أَمَتِكَ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ لابُدَّ أَنْ يُثَبِّتَ كُرْسِيَّ مُلْكِ سَيِّدِي إِلَى الأَبَدِ، لأَنَّ سَيِّدِي يُحَارِبُ حُرُوبَ الرَّبِّ، فَلا يُوْجَدُ فِيكَ شَرٌّ كُلَّ أَيَّامِكَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fights the LORD’s battles. Evil will not be found in you all your days.
| وَإِنْ قَامَ مَنْ يَتَعَقَّبُكَ لِيَقْتُلَكَ، فَلْتَكُنْ نَفْسُ سَيِّدِي مَحْزُومَةً فِي حُزْمَةِ الأَحْيَاءِ مَعَ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. وَأَمَّا نَفْسُ أَعْدَائِكَ فَلْيُقْذَفْ بِها كَمَا يُقْذَفُ حَجَرٌ مِنْ وَسَطِ كَفَّةِ مِقْلاعٍ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Though men may rise up to pursue you and to seek your soul, yet the soul of my lord will be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD your God. He will sling out the souls of your enemies as from a sling’s pocket.
| وَعِنْدَمَا يُحَقِّقُ الرَّبُّ لِسَيِّدِي كُلَّ هَذَا الْخَيْرِ الَّذِي وَعَدَ بِهِ وَيُنَصِّبُكَ رَئِيساً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ٣٠ 30 |
It will come to pass, when the LORD has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you, and has appointed you prince over Israel,
| فَلَنْ تُقَاسِيَ مِنْ عَذَابِ الضَّمِيرِ لأَنَّكَ سَفَكْتَ دِمَاءً اعْتِبَاطاً أَوِ انْتَقَمْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ. وَمَتَى حَقَّقَ لَكَ الرَّبُّ وَعْدَهُ فَاذْكُرْ أَمَتَكَ». | ٣١ 31 |
that this shall be no grief to you, nor offense of heart to my lord, either that you have shed blood without cause, or that my lord has avenged himself. When the LORD has dealt well with my lord, then remember your servant.”
| فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لأَبِيجَايِلَ: «مُبَارَكٌ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَكِ الْيَوْمَ لِلِقَائِي، | ٣٢ 32 |
David said to Abigail, “Blessed is the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent you today to meet me!
| وَمُبَارَكَةٌ فِطْنَتُكِ، وَمُبَارَكَةٌ أَنْتِ لأَنَّكِ جَنَّبْتِنِي الْيَوْمَ سَفْكَ الدِّمَاءِ وَالانْتِقَامَ لِنَفْسِي. | ٣٣ 33 |
Blessed is your discretion, and blessed are you, who have kept me today from blood guiltiness, and from avenging myself with my own hand.
| وَلَكِنْ حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي مَنَعَنِي مِنَ الإِسَاءَةِ إِلَيْكِ، فَلَوْ لَمْ تُبَادِرِي وَتَأْتِي لاِسْتِقْبَالِي لَمَا بَقِيَ لِنَابَالَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى قَيْدِ الْحَيَاةِ عِنْدَ مَطْلَعِ ضَوْءِ الصَّبَاحِ». | ٣٤ 34 |
For indeed, as the LORD the God of Israel lives, who has withheld me from harming you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there would not have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”
| وَقَبِلَ دَاوُدُ مِنْهَا مَا حَمَلَتْهُ إِلَيْهِ قَائِلاً لَهَا: «امْضِي إِلَى بَيْتِكِ بِسَلامٍ، فَهَا أَنَا قَدِ اسْتَمَعْتُ لِتَوَسُّلِكِ وَاسْتَجَبْتُ طِلْبَتَكِ». | ٣٥ 35 |
So David received from her hand that which she had brought him. Then he said to her, “Go up in peace to your house. Behold, I have listened to your voice and have granted your request.”
| فَأَقْبَلَتْ أَبِيجَايِلُ إِلَى نَابَالَ، فَوَجَدَتْ أَنَّهُ قَدْ أَقَامَ مَأْدُبَةً فِي بَيْتِهِ كَمَأْدُبَةِ مَلِكٍ، وَقَدْ أَخَذَتْهُ النَّشْوَةُ بَعْدَ أَنْ أَكْثَرَ مِنِ احْتِسَاءِ الْخَمْرِ حَتَّى سَكِرَ، فَلَمْ تُخْبِرْهُ بِشَيْءٍ إِطْلاقاً حَتَّى صَبَاحِ الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي. | ٣٦ 36 |
Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house like the feast of a king. Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing until the morning light.
| وَفِي الصَّبَاحِ، بَعْدَ أَنْ صَحَا نَابَالُ مِنْ سَكْرَتِهِ، أَخْبَرَتْهُ بِمَا جَرَى، فَأَصَابَهُ الشَّلَلُ وَتَجَمَّدَ كَحَجَرٍ. | ٣٧ 37 |
In the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal, his wife told him these things; and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
| وَبَعْدَ عَشَرَةِ أَيَّامٍ ضَرَبَهُ اللهُ فَمَاتَ. | ٣٨ 38 |
About ten days later, the LORD struck Nabal, so that he died.
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ دَاوُدُ بِمَوْتِ نَابَالَ قَالَ: «مُبَارَكٌ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي انْتَقَمَ لِي بِذَاتِهِ مِنْ إِهَانَةِ نَابَالَ، وَجَنَّبَنِي ارْتِكَابَ الشَّرِّ وَعَاقَبَ نَابَالَ عَلَى إِثْمِهِ». وَأَرْسَلَ دَاوُدُ إِلَى أَبِيجَايِلَ يَسْأَلُهَا الزَّوَاجَ مِنْهُ. | ٣٩ 39 |
When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Blessed is the LORD, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept back his servant from evil. The LORD has returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head.” David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to himself as wife.
| فَوَفَدَ رُسُلُ دَاوُدَ إِلَى أَبِيجَايِلَ إِلَى الْكَرْمَلِ وَقَالُوا لَهَا: «أَرْسَلَنَا دَاوُدُ إِلَيْكِ لِنَسْأَلَكِ الزَّوَاجَ مِنْهُ». | ٤٠ 40 |
When David’s servants had come to Abigail to Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, “David has sent us to you, to take you to him as wife.”
| فَقَامَتْ وَسَجَدَتْ بِوَجْهِهَا إِلَى الأَرْضِ وَقَالَتْ: «أَنَا أَمَتُهُ الْمُسْتَعِدَّةُ لِخِدْمَتِهِ وَلِغَسْلِ أَرْجُلِ عَبِيدِ سَيِّدِي». | ٤١ 41 |
She arose and bowed herself with her face to the earth, and said, “Behold, your servant is a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.”
| ثُمَّ أَسْرَعَتْ أَبِيجَايِلُ وَرَكِبَتْ حِمَارَهَا بَعْدَ أَنْ صَحَبَتْ مَعَهَا خَمْسَ فَتَيَاتٍ مِنْ جَوَارِيهَا سِرْنَ وَرَاءَهَا، وَتَبِعَتْ رُسُلَ دَاوُدَ، وَصَارَتْ لَهُ زَوْجَةً. | ٤٢ 42 |
Abigail hurriedly arose and rode on a donkey with her five maids who followed her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.
| ثُمَّ تَزَوَّجَ دَاوُدُ أَخِينُوعَمَ مِنْ يَزْرَعِيلَ فَكَانَتَا لَهُ زَوْجَتَيْنِ. | ٤٣ 43 |
David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they both became his wives.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ زَوَّجَ شَاوُلُ مِيكَالَ ابْنَتَهُ امْرَأَةَ دَاوُدَ مِنْ فَلْطِي بْنِ لايِشَ الَّذِي مِنْ جَلِّيمَ. | ٤٤ 44 |
Now Saul had given Michal his daughter, David’s wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
