2 أخبار 13
| وَفِي السَّنَةِ الثَّامِنَةِ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ حُكْمِ الْمَلِكِ يَرُبْعَامَ اعْتَلَى أَبِيَّا عَرْشَ يَهُوذَا، | ١ 1 |
Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.
| وَدَامَ مُلْكُهُ ثَلاثَ سَنَوَاتٍ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَاسْمُ أُمِّهِ مِيخَايَا ابْنَةُ أُورِيئِيلَ مِنْ جَبْعَةَ، وَنَشَبَتْ حَرْبٌ بَيْنَ أَبِيَّا وَيَرُبْعَامَ. | ٢ 2 |
He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
| وَخَاضَ أَبِيَّا الْحَرْبَ بِجَيْشٍ مِنَ الْمُحَارِبِينَ الأَشِدَّاءِ، بَلَغَ عَدَدُهُمْ أَرْبَعَ مِئَةِ أَلْفٍ مِنْ خِيرَةِ الْمُقَاتِلِينَ. وَاصْطَفَّ يَرُبْعَامُ لِمُحَارَبَتِهِ بِجَيْشٍ بَلَغَ عَدَدُهُ ثَمَانِي مِئَةِ أَلْفٍ مِنْ نُخْبَةِ الْمُحَارِبِينَ الأَشِدَّاءِ. | ٣ 3 |
And Abijah set the battle in array with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men: Jeroboam also set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, being mighty men of valour.
| وَوَقَفَ أَبِيَّا عَلَى جَبَلِ صَمَارَايِمَ فِي مُرْتَفَعَاتِ أَرْضِ أَفْرَايِمَ وَهَتَفَ: «أَصْغِ إِلَيَّ يَا يَرُبْعَامُ وَيَا كُلَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ: | ٤ 4 |
And Abijah stood up upon mount Zemaraim, which is in mount Ephraim, and said, Hear me, you Jeroboam, and all Israel;
| أَلَمْ تُدْرِكُوا بَعْدُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَدْ عَهِدَ بِالْمُلْكِ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ بِعَهْدِ مِلْحٍ، | ٥ 5 |
Ought all of you not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt?
| فَقَامَ يَرُبْعَامُ بْنُ نَبَاطَ عَبْدُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ، وَتَمَرَّدَ عَلَى سَيِّدِهِ. | ٦ 6 |
Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, has risen up, and has rebelled against his lord.
| فَالْتَفَّ حَوْلَهُ رِجَالٌ بَطَّالُونَ أَشْرَارٌ، وَثَارُوا عَلَى رَحُبْعَامَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ، فَلَمْ يَثْبُتْ رَحُبْعَامُ أَمَامَهُمْ لِحَدَاثَتِهِ وَقِلَّةِ خِبْرَتِهِ. | ٧ 7 |
And there are gathered unto him vain men, the children of Belial, and have strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and tenderhearted, and could not withstand them.
| وَالآنَ أَنْتُمْ تَدَّعُونَ أَنَّكُمْ قَادِرُونَ عَلَى الثَّبَاتِ أَمَامَ قُوَّاتِ مَمْلَكَةِ الرَّبِّ الَّتِي أَرْسَاهَا بِيَدِ دَاوُدَ، حَاشِدِينَ جَيْشاً كَبِيراً، وَحَامِلِينَ مَعَكُمْ عُجُولَ ذَهَبٍ صَنَعَهَا لَكُمْ يَرُبْعَامُ لِتَكُونَ لَكُمْ آلِهَةً. | ٨ 8 |
And now all of you think to withstand the kingdom of the LORD in the hand of the sons of David; and all of you be a great multitude, and there are with your golden calves, which Jeroboam made you for gods.
| أَلَمْ تَطْرُدُوا كَهَنَةَ الرَّبِّ أَبْنَاءَ هرُونَ وَاللّاوِيِّينَ، وَأَقَمْتُمْ لأَنْفُسِكُمْ كَهَنَةً كَالأُمَمِ الأُخْرَى، فَيُصْبِحَ كُلُّ مَنْ يَأْتِي لِيُكَرِّسَ عِجْلاً وَسَبْعَةَ كِبَاشٍ كَاهِناً لِمَنْ لَيْسُوا آلِهَةً؟ | ٩ 9 |
Have all of you not cast out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and have made you priests after the manner of the nations of other lands? so that whosoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven rams, the same may be a priest of them that are no gods.
| وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَالرَّبُّ هُوَ إِلَهُنَا لَمْ نَتَخَلَّ عَنْهُ، وَخُدَّامُ الرَّبِّ الْكَهَنَةُ الْقَائِمُونَ بِخِدْمَةِ الْعِبَادَةِ هُمْ ذُرِّيَّةُ هرُونَ، وَمَعَهُمُ اللّاوِيُّونَ، | ١٠ 10 |
But as for us, the LORD is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and the priests, which minister unto the LORD, are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites wait upon their business:
| يُوْقِدُونَ لِلرَّبِّ مُحْرَقَاتٍ كُلَّ صَبَاحٍ وَمَسَاءٍ، وَيُحْرِقُونَ بَخُورَ أَطْيَابٍ، وَيُعِدُّونَ خُبْزَ التَّقْدِمَةِ عَلَى الْمَائِدَةِ الطَّاهِرَةِ، وَيُضِيئُونَ مَنَارَةَ الذَّهَبِ وَسُرُوجَهَا كُلَّ مَسَاءٍ، وَهَكَذَا نَقُومُ بِالْمُحَافَظَةِ عَلَى فَرَائِضِ الرَّبِّ. وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَقَدْ تَخَلَّيْتُمْ عَنْهُ. | ١١ 11 |
And they burn unto the LORD every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense: the showbread also set they in order upon the pure table; and the candlestick of gold with the lamps thereof, to burn every evening: for we keep the charge of the LORD our God; but all of you have forsaken him.
| هَا الرَّبُّ مَعَنَا فِي طَلِيعَتِنَا، وَسَيَهْتِفُ كَهَنَتُهُ بِأَبْوَاقِهِمْ هُتَافَ الْحَرْبِ ضِدَّكُمْ. فَيَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا تُحَارِبُوا الرَّبَّ إِلَهَ آبَائِكُمْ لأَنَّكُمْ لَا تُفْلِحُونَ». | ١٢ 12 |
And, behold, God himself is with us for our captain, and his priests with sounding trumpets to cry alarm against you. O children of Israel, fight all of you not against the LORD God of your fathers; for all of you shall not prosper.
| وَكَانَ يَرُبْعَامُ قَدْ أَعَدَّ كَمِيناً لِيَدُورَ وَيُهَاجِمَهُمْ مِنَ الْخَلْفِ، فَأَصْبَحَ جَيْشُ يَهُوذَا وَاقِعاً بَيْنَ الْقُوَّاتِ الإِسْرَائِيلِيَّةِ وَالْكَمِينِ. | ١٣ 13 |
But Jeroboam caused an ambushment to come about behind them: so they were before Judah, and the ambushment was behind them.
| وَتَبَيَّنَ جَيْشُ يَهُوذَا أَنَّهُمْ مُحَاطُونَ بِالْحَرْبِ مِنْ أَمَامٍ وَمِنْ خَلْفٍ، فَاسْتَغَاثُوا بِالرَّبِّ وَنَفَخَ الْكَهَنَةُ بِالأَبْوَاقِ. | ١٤ 14 |
And when Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind: and they cried unto the LORD, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.
| وَهَتَفَ مُقَاتِلُو يَهُوذَا بِصَيْحَاتِ الْحَرْبِ، عِنْدَئِذٍ هَزَمَ الرَّبُّ يَرُبْعَامَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ أَمَامَ أَبِيَّا وَجَيْشِ يَهُوذَا. | ١٥ 15 |
Then the men of Judah gave a shout: and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass, that God stroke Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
| وَانْكَسَرَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ وَأَسْلَمَهُمُ الرَّبُّ لِقُوَّاتِ يَهُوذَا. | ١٦ 16 |
And the children of Israel fled before Judah: and God delivered them into their hand.
| وَتَمَكَّنَ أَبِيَّا وَجَيْشُهُ مِنَ الْقَضَاءِ عَلَيْهِمْ قَضَاءً مُبْرَماً، فَسَقَطَ مِنَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ خَمْسُ مِئَةِ أَلْفٍ مِنْ خِيرَةِ الْمُحَارِبِينَ. | ١٧ 17 |
And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter: so there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.
| فَذَلَّ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ، وَانْتَصَرَ رِجَالُ يَهُوذَا لأَنَّهُمُ اتَّكَلُوا عَلَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِ آبَائِهِمْ. | ١٨ 18 |
Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied upon the LORD God of their fathers.
| وَتَعَقَّبَ أَبِيَّا يَرُبْعَامَ وَاسْتَوْلَى مِنْهُ عَلَى مُدُنِ بَيْتِ إِيلَ وَضِيَاعِهَا وَيَشَانَةَ وَضِيَاعِهَا وَعَفْرُونَ وَضِيَاعِهَا. | ١٩ 19 |
And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Bethel with the towns thereof, and Jeshanah with the towns thereof, and Ephraim with the towns thereof.
| وَلَمْ يَسْتَعِدْ يَرُبْعَامُ قُوَّتَهُ مُدَّةَ حُكْمِ أَبِيَّا، وَأَخِيراً ضَرَبَهُ الرَّبُّ وَمَاتَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Neither did Jeroboam recover strength again in the days of Abijah: and the LORD struck him, and he died.
| وَازْدَادَ أَبِيَّا قُوَّةً. وَتَزَوَّجَ أَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ امْرَأَةً انْجَبْنَ لَهُ اثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ ابْناً وَسِتَّ عَشْرَةَ بِنْتاً. | ٢١ 21 |
But Abijah waxed mighty, and married fourteen wives, and brings forth twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters.
| أَمَّا بَقِيَّةُ أَخْبَارِ أَبِيَّا وَطُرُقُهُ وَمُنْجَزَاتُهُ أَلَيْسَتْ هِيَ مُدَوَّنَةً فِي تَارِيخِ النَّبِيِّ عِدُّو؟ | ٢٢ 22 |
And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings, are written in the story of the prophet Iddo.
