< 1 صَمُوئيل 3 >

وَخَدَمَ الصَّبِيُّ صَمُوئِيلُ الرَّبَّ بِإِشْرَافِ عَالِي. وَكَانَتْ رَسَائِلُ الرَّبِّ نَادِرَةً فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ، وَالرُّؤَى عَزِيزَةً. ١ 1
And the child Samuel ministered unto Yhwh before Eli. And the word of Yhwh was precious in those days; there was no open vision.
وَحَدَثَ أَنَّ عَالِي كَانَ مُضْطَجِعاً فِي مَكَانِهِ الْمُعْتَادِ وَقَدْ كَلَّ بَصَرُهُ فَعَجَزَ عَنِ النَّظَرِ. ٢ 2
And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see;
وَبَيْنَمَا كَانَ صَمُوئِيلُ رَاقِداً فِي هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي فِيهِ تَابُوتُ اللهِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ سِرَاجُ اللهِ قَدِ انْطَفَأَ بَعْدُ، ٣ 3
And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of Yhwh, where the ark of God was, and Samuel was laid down to sleep;
دَعَا الرَّبُّ صَمُوئِيلَ، فَأَجَابَ: «نَعَمْ». ٤ 4
That Yhwh called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I.
وَهَرْوَلَ نَحْوَ عَالِي قَائِلاً: «هَا أَنَا قَدْ جِئْتُ لأَنَّكَ اسْتَدْعَيْتَنِي». فَقَالَ عَالِي: «إِنَّنِي لَمْ أَدْعُكَ. عُدْ وَاضْطَجِعْ». فَرَجَعَ صَمُوئِيلُ وَرَقَدَ. ٥ 5
And he ran unto Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And he said, I called not; lie down again. And he went and lay down.
ثُمَّ دَعَا الرَّبُّ صَمُوئِيلَ مَرَّةً ثَانِيَةً، فَنَهَضَ صَمُوئِيلُ وَمَضَى إِلَى عَالِي قَائِلاً: «هَا أَنَا جِئْتُ لأَنَّكَ دَعَوْتَنِي». فَأَجَابَهُ: «إِنَّنِي لَمْ أَدْعُكَ يَا ابْنِي، عُدْ وَاضْطَجِعْ». ٦ 6
And Yhwh called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And he answered, I called not, my son; lie down again.
وَلَمْ يَكُنْ صَمُوئِيلُ قَدَ عَرَفَ الرَّبَّ بَعْدُ، وَلا تَلَقَّى مِنْهُ أَيَّةَ رِسَالَةٍ. ٧ 7
Now Samuel did not yet know Yhwh, neither was the word of Yhwh yet revealed unto him.
وَدَعَا الرَّبُّ صَمُوئِيلَ مَرَّةً ثَالِثَةً، فَقَامَ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى عَالِي قَائِلاً: «هَا أَنَا قَدْ جِئْتُ لأَنَّكَ دَعَوْتَنِي». فَأَدْرَكَ عَالِي آنَئِذٍ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ هُوَ الَّذِي يَدْعُو الصَّبِيَّ، ٨ 8
And Yhwh called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that Yhwh had called the child.
فَقَالَ عَالِي لِصَمُوئِيلَ: «اذْهَبْ وَارْقُدْ، وَإذَا دَعَاكَ الرَّبُّ فَقُلْ: تَكَلَّمْ يَا رَبُّ لأَنَّ عَبْدَكَ سَامِعٌ». فَذَهَبَ صَمُوئِيلُ وَرَقَدَ فِي مَكَانِهِ. ٩ 9
Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Yhwh; for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
وَدَعَا الرَّبُّ كَمَا حَدَثَ فِي الْمَرَّاتِ السَّابِقَةِ: «صَمُوئِيلُ، صَمُوئِيلُ». فَأَجَابَ صَمُوئِيلُ: «تَكَلَّمْ لأَنَّ عَبْدَكَ سَامِعٌ» ١٠ 10
And Yhwh came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِصَمُوئِيلَ: «هَا أَنَا مُزْمِعٌ أَنْ أُجْرِيَ أَمْراً فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ تَطِنُّ أُذُنَا كُلِّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ بِهِ. ١١ 11
And Yhwh said to Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle.
إِذْ أُوْقِعُ بِعَالِي كُلَّ مَا تَوَعَّدْتُ بِهِ بَيْتَهُ مِنْ أَوَّلِهِ إِلَى آخِرِهِ. ١٢ 12
In that day I will perform against Eli all things which I have spoken concerning his house: when I begin, I will also make an end.
وَقَدْ أَنْبَأْتُهُ بِأَنَّنِي سَأَدِينُ بَيْتَهُ إِلَى الْأَبَدِ، عَلَى الشَّرِّ الَّذِي يَعْلَمُ أَنَّ ابْنَيْهِ قَدْ أَوْجَبَا بِهِ اللَّعْنَةَ عَلَى نَفْسَيْهِمَا، فَلَمْ يَرْدَعْهُمَا. ١٣ 13
For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth; because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not.
لِهَذَا أَقْسَمْتُ أَنْ لَا يُكَفَّرَ عَنْ إِثْمِ بَيْتِ عَالِي بِذَبِيحَةٍ أَوْ تَقْدِمَةٍ إِلَى الأَبَدِ». ١٤ 14
And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli’s house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offering for ever.
وَنَامَ صَمُوئِيلُ إِلَى الصَّبَاحِ، ثُمَّ قَامَ وَفَتَحَ أَبْوَابَ بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ. وَخَافَ أَنْ يُطْلِعَ عَالِي عَلَى الرُّؤْيَا. ١٥ 15
And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of Yhwh. And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision.
فَاسْتَدْعَى عَالِي إِلَيْهِ صَمُوئِيلَ. ١٦ 16
Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And he answered, Here am I.
وَسَأَلَهُ: «بِمَاذَا خَاطَبَكَ الرَّبُّ؟ لَا تُخْفِ عَنِّي. لِيُضَاعِفِ الرَّبُّ عِقَابَكَ إِنْ أَخْفَيْتَ عَنِّي كَلِمَةً مِمَّا خَاطَبَكَ بِهِ الرَّبُّ». ١٧ 17
And he said, What is the thing that the Lord hath said unto thee? I pray thee hide it not from me: God do so to thee, and more also, if thou hide any thing from me of all the things that he said unto thee.
فَأَطْلَعَهُ صَمُوئِيلُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ الْكَلامِ، وَلَمْ يُخْفِ عَنْهُ شَيْئاً. فَقَالَ عَالِي: «إِنَّهُ الرَّبُّ، وَهُوَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَاءُ». ١٨ 18
And Samuel told him every whit, and hid nothing from him. And he said, It is Yhwh: let him do what seemeth him good.
وَكَبُرَ الصَّبِيُّ. وَكَانَ الرَّبُّ مَعَهُ. لَمْ يَخْذُلْهُ قَطُّ. ١٩ 19
And Samuel grew, And Yhwh was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.
وَعَرَفَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دَانٍ إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدِ ائْتَمَنَ صَمُوئِيلَ ليَكُونَ لَهُ نَبِيًّا. ٢٠ 20
And all Israel from Dan even to Beer–sheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of Yhwh.
وَظَلَّ الرَّبُّ يَتَجَلَّى فِي شِيلُوهَ حَيْثُ كَانَ يُعْلِنُ ذَاتَهُ لِصَمُوئِيلَ مِنْ خِلالِ رَسَائِلِهِ الَّتِي كَانَ صَمُوئِيلُ يُبَلِّغُهَا لِجَمِيعِ الشَّعْبِ. ٢١ 21
And Yhwh appeared again in Shiloh: for Yhwh revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of Yhwh.
