2 مُلُوك 10
| وَكَانَ لأَخْآبَ سَبْعُونَ ابْناً يُقِيمُونَ فِي السَّامِرَةِ، فَكَتَبَ يَاهُو رَسَائِلَ بَعَثَ بِها إِلَى شُيُوخِ مَدِينَةِ يَزْرَعِيلَ وَإِلَى الْأَوْصِيَاءِ عَلَى أَبْنَاءِ آخْابَ قَائِلاً: | ١ 1 |
And Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, to the elders, and to them that brought up Ahab’s children, saying,
| «مِنْ حَيْثُ أَنَّ أَبْنَاءَ سَيِّدِكُمْ لَدَيْكُمْ، وَمِنْ حَيْثُ أَنَّكُمْ تَمْتَلِكُونَ مَرْكَبَاتٍ وَخَيْلاً وَتَعْتَصِمُونَ بِمَدِينَةٍ مُحَصَّنَةٍ، وَعِنْدَكُمْ سِلاحٌ، فَعِنْدَ تَلَقِّيكُمْ هَذِهِ الرِّسَالَةَ | ٢ 2 |
Now as soon as this letter cometh to you, seeing your master’s sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, a fortified city also, and armour;
| اخْتَارُوا الأَفْضَلَ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ سَيِّدِكُمْ وَنَصِّبُوهُ مَلِكاً عَلَى عَرْشِ أَبِيهِ، وَدَافِعُوا عَنْ بَيْتِ مَوْلاكُمْ». | ٣ 3 |
Choose the best and most fit of your master’s sons, and set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.
| فَاعْتَرَاهُمْ خَوْفٌ عَظِيمٌ وَقَالُوا: «هَا مَلِكَانِ قَدْ عَجَزَا عَنْ صَدِّهِ، فَكَيْفَ يُمْكِنُنَا نَحْنُ أَنْ نُوَاجِهَهُ؟» | ٤ 4 |
But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, two kings stood not before him: how then shall we stand?
| فَأَجَابَ مُدَبِّرُ الْقَصْرِ وَمُحَاِفظُ الْمَدِينَةِ والشُّيُوخُ وَالأَوْصِيَاءُ يَاهُو قَائِلِينَ: «نَحْنُ عَبِيدُكَ، وَسَنَفْعَلُ كُلَّ مَا تَأْمُرُ بِهِ. لَنْ يَمْلِكَ عَلَيْنَا سِوَاكَ. وَاصْنَعْ مَا يَرُوقُ لَكَ». | ٥ 5 |
And he that was over the house, and he that was over the city, the elders also, and those who brought up the children, sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any king: do thou that which is good in thy eyes.
| فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِمْ بِرِسَالَةٍ ثَانِيَةٍ قَائِلاً: «إِنْ كُنْتُمْ حَقّاً مِنْ أَنْصَارِي، وَتَأْتَمِرُونَ بِأَمْرِي، فَاقْطَعُوا رُؤُوسَ أَبْنَاءِ سَيِّدِكُمْ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ وَأَحْضِرُوهَا إِلَيَّ فِي يَزْرَعِيلَ، فِي نَحْوِ هَذَا الْوَقْتِ فِي يَوْمِ الْغَدِ». وَكَانَ أَبْنَاءُ الْمَلِكِ سَبْعِينَ رَجُلاً يَعِيشُونَ فِي رِعَايَةِ أَشْرَافِ الْمَدِينَةِ الَّذِينَ تَعَهَّدُوهُمْ بِالتَّرْبِيَةِ. | ٦ 6 |
Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye are mine, and if ye will hearken to my voice, take ye the heads of the men your master’s sons, and come to me to Jezreel by to morrow this time. Now the king’s sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who brought them up.
| فَلَمَّا بَلَغَتْهُمْ رِسَالَةُ يَاهُو قَبَضُوا عَلَى الأُمَرَاءِ وَقَتَلُوا سَبْعِينَ رَجُلاً وَوَضَعُوا رُؤُوسَهُمْ فِي سِلالٍ وَأَرْسَلُوهَا إِلَيْهِ فِي يَزْرَعِيلَ. | ٧ 7 |
And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king’s sons, and slew seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezreel.
| فَجَاءَ رَسُولٌ وَأَخْبَرَ يَاهُو قَائِلاً: «قَدْ أَحْضَرُوا رُؤُوسَ الأُمَرَاءِ» فَقَالَ: «اجْعَلُوهَا كُومَتَيْنِ فِي مَدْخَلِ بَوَّابَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى الصَّبَاحِ». | ٨ 8 |
And there came a messenger, and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king’s sons. And he said, Lay ye them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.
| وَفِي صَبَاحِ الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي خَرَجَ وَقَالَ لِلشَّعْبِ الْمُتَجَمْهِرِ: «أَنْتُمْ أَبْرِيَاءُ، فَهَا أَنَا قَدْ تَمَرَّدْتُ عَلَى سَيِّدِي وَقَتَلْتُهُ، وَلَكِنْ مَنْ قَتَلَ كُلَّ هَؤُلاءِ؟ | ٩ 9 |
And it came to pass in the morning, that he went out, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye are righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him: but who slew all these?
| فَاعْلَمُوا الآنَ أَنَّهُ لَنْ تَسْقُطَ كَلِمَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ مِمَّا قَضَى بِهِ الرَّبُّ عَلَى بَيْتِ آخْابَ، وَقَدْ نَفَّذَ الرَّبُّ مَا نَطَقَ بِهِ عَلَى لِسَانِ عَبْدِهِ إِيلِيَّا». | ١٠ 10 |
Know now that there shall fall to the earth nothing of the word of the LORD, which the LORD spoke concerning the house of Ahab: for the LORD hath done that which he spoke by his servant Elijah.
| وَقَضَى يَاهُو عَلَى الْبَقِيَّةِ الْبَاقِيَةِ مِنْ نَسْلِ آخْابَ فِي يَزْرَعِيلَ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ عُظَمَائِهِ وَأَصْدِقَائِهِ وَكَهَنَتِهِ، فَلَمْ يُفْلِتْ لَهُ حَيٌّ. | ١١ 11 |
So Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his kinsmen, and his priests, until he left him none remaining.
| ثُمَّ تَوَجَّهَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ نَحْوَ السَّامِرَةِ. وَلَمَّا وَصَلَ إِلَى جُوَارِ بَيْتِ عَقْدِ الرُّعَاةِ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، | ١٢ 12 |
And he arose and departed, and came to Samaria. And as he was at the shearing house in the way,
| صَادَفَ يَاهُو إِخْوَةَ أَخَزْيَا مَلِكِ يَهُوذا، فَسَأَلَهُمْ: «مَنْ أَنْتُمْ؟» فَأَجَابُوا: «نَحْنُ إِخْوَةُ أَخَزْيَا، وَنَحْنُ قَادِمُونَ لِزِيَارَةِ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَلِكِ وَالْمَلِكَةِ إِيزَابِلَ». | ١٣ 13 |
Jehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and we go down to greet the children of the king and the children of the queen.
| فَقَالَ: «اقْبِضُوا عَلَيْهِمْ أَحْيَاءَ». فَقَبَضُوا عَلَيْهِمْ أَحْيَاءَ وَقَتَلُوهُمْ جَمِيعاً عِنْدَ بِئْرِ بَيْتِ عَقْدٍ، وَعَدَدُهُمْ اثْنَانِ وَأَرْبَعُونَ رَجُلاً. | ١٤ 14 |
And he said, Take them alive. And they took them alive, and slew them at the pit of the shearing house, even two and forty men; neither left he any of them.
| ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ فَالْتَقَى يَهُونَادَابَ بْنَ رَكَابَ، الَّذِي كَانَ قَادِماً لِمُقَابَلَتِهِ، فَحَيَّاهُ يَاهُو ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ: «هَلْ قَلْبُكَ مُخْلِصٌ لِقَلْبِي مِثْلَ إِخْلاصِ قَلْبِي لِقَلْبِكَ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ يَهُونَادَابُ: «نَعَمْ». فَقَالَ يَاهُو: «إِذَنْ هَاتِ يَدَكَ». فَمَدَّ إِلَيْهِ يَدَهُ فَأَصْعَدَهُ مَعَهُ إِلَى الْمَرْكَبَةِ، | ١٥ 15 |
And when he had departed from there, he came upon Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him: and he greeted him, and said to him, Is thy heart right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it is, give me thy hand. And he gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.
| وَقَالَ: «تَعَالَ مَعِي لِتَرَى مَدَى غَيْرَتِي لِلرَّبِّ»، وَهَكَذَا أَرْكَبَهُ مَعَهُ فِي الْمَرْكَبَةِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And he said, Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD. So they made him ride in his chariot.
| وَعِنْدَمَا وَصَلَ يَاهُو إِلَى السَّامِرَةِ أَهْلَكَ جَمِيعَ مَنْ بَقِيَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ آخْابَ، فَأَفْنَاهُمْ بِمُوْجِبِ قَضَاءِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي كَلَّمَ بِهِ إِيلِيَّا. | ١٧ 17 |
And when he came to Samaria, he slew all that remained to Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the saying of the LORD, which he spoke to Elijah.
| ثُمَّ جَمَعَ يَاهُو كُلَّ الشَّعْبِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لَقَدْ عَبَدَ آخْابُ الْبَعْلَ عِبَادَةً طَفِيفَةً، أَمَّا أَنَا فَأُغَالِي فِي عِبَادَتِهِ. | ١٨ 18 |
And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, Ahab served Baal a little; but Jehu shall serve him much.
| فَادْعُوا إِلَيَّ الآنَ جَمِيعَ أَنْبِيَاءِ الْبَعْلِ وَكُلَّ كَهَنَتِهِ وَالْمُتَعَبِّدِينَ لَهُ. لَا يَتَخَلَّفْ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ، لأَنَّنِي عَازِمٌ أَنْ أُقَرِّبَ ذَبِيحَةً عَظِيمَةً لِلْبَعْلِ. وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَتَخَلَّفُ عَنِ الْحُضُورِ يَمُوتُ». وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ مَكِيدَةً مِنْهُ لِكَيْ يَسْتَأْصِلَ عَبَدَةَ الْبَعْلِ. | ١٩ 19 |
Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let none be missing: for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whoever shall be missing, he shall not live. But Jehu did it deceitfully, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
| وَقَالَ يَاهُو: «أَقِيمُوا مَحْفَلاً مُقَدَّساً لِلْبَعْلِ». فَنَادَوْا بِهِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And Jehu said, Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.
| وَاسْتَدْعَى يَاهُو جَمِيعَ عَبَدَةِ الْبَعْلِ مِنْ كُلِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَلَمْ يَتَخَلَّفْ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ، وَدَخَلُوا مَعْبَدَ الْبَعْلِ فَامْتَلأَ بِهِمِ الْمَكَانُ، | ٢١ 21 |
And Jehu sent through all Israel: and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was full from one end to another.
| فَقَالَ لِلْمُشْرِفِ عَلَى الْمَلابِسِ: «وَزِّعْ مَلابِسَ عَلَى كُلِّ عَبَدَةِ الْبَعْلِ». فَأَخْرَجَهَا وَوَزَّعَهَا عَلَيْهِمْ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And he said to him that was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal. And he brought them forth vestments.
| ثُمَّ دَخَلَ يَاهُو وَيَهُونَادَابُ بْنُ رَكَابَ إِلَى مَعْبَدِ الْبَعْلِ، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «فَتِّشُوا إِنْ كَانَ قَدِ انْدَسَّ بَيْنَكُمْ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ عَبِيدِ الرَّبِّ، إِذْ لَا يَجِبُ أَنْ يَكُونَ هُنَا سِوَى عَبَدَةِ الْبَعْلِ فَقَطْ». | ٢٣ 23 |
And Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal, and said to the worshippers of Baal, Search, and see that there are here with you none of the servants of the LORD, but the worshippers of Baal only.
| وَهَكَذَا دَخَلُوا لِيُقَرِّبُوا ذَبَائِحَ وَمُحْرَقَاتٍ. وَكَانَ يَاهُو قَدْ رَصَدَ كَمِيناً مِنْ ثَمَانِينَ رَجُلاً خَارِجَ الْمَعْبَدِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنْ أَفْلَتَ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ عَبَدَةِ الْبَعْلِ تَكُونُ أَنْفُسُكُمْ عِوَضاً عَنْهُ». | ٢٤ 24 |
And when they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings, Jehu appointed eighty men without, and said, If any of the men whom I have brought into your hands escape, he that letteth him go, his life shall be for the life of him.
| وَعِنْدَمَا فَرَغَ يَاهُو مِنْ تَقْرِيبِ الْمُحْرَقَةِ، قَالَ لِلْحُرَّاسِ وَالضُّبَّاطِ: «ادْخُلُوا وَأَهْلِكُوهُمْ! لَا يُفْلِتْ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ». فَأَبَادُوهُمْ بِحَدِّ السَّيْفِ، وَطَرَحُوا جُثَثَهُمْ. ثُمَّ تَوَجَّهُوا نَحْوَ الْمِحْرَابِ الدَّاخِلِيِّ لِمَعْبَدِ الْبَعْلِ، | ٢٥ 25 |
And it came to pass, as soon as he had finished offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
| فَأَخْرَجُوا التَّمَاثِيلَ وَأَحْرَقُوهَا، | ٢٦ 26 |
And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burned them.
| وَحَطَّمُوا تِمْثَالَ الْبَعْلِ، وَهَدَمُوا الْمَعْبَدَ وَحَوَّلُوهُ إِلَى مَزْبَلَةٍ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
And they broke down the image of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it a place of refuse to this day.
| وَاسْتَأْصَلَ يَاهُو عِبَادَةَ الْبَعْلِ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
| وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَحِدْ عَنْ خَطَايَا يَرُبْعَامَ الَّتِي اسْتَغْوَى بِها الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ وَجَعَلَهُمْ يُخْطِئُونَ، إِذْ أَبْقَى عَلَى عُجُولِ الذَّهَبِ الَّتِي فِي بَيْتِ إِيلَ وَفِي دَانَ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Yet from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, Jehu departed not from after them, that is, the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were in Dan.
| وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِيَاهُو: «مِنْ حَيْثُ إِنَّكَ قَدْ أَحْسَنْتَ بِتَنْفِيذِ مَا هُوَ صَالِحٌ فِي عَيْنَيَّ، وَأَجْرَيْتَ عَلَى بَيْتِ آخْابَ مَا أَضْمَرْتُهُ فِي قَلْبِي، فَإِنَّ أَبْنَاءَكَ يَتَرَبَّعُونَ عَلَى عَرْشِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى الْجِيلِ الرَّابِعِ». | ٣٠ 30 |
And the LORD said to Jehu, Because thou hast done well in executing that which is right in my eyes, and hast done to the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, thy children of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.
| وَلَكِنَّ يَاهُو لَمْ يَحْرِصْ عَلَى السُّلُوكِ فِي شَرِيعَةِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِهِ، إِذْ وَاظَبَ عَلَى ارْتِكَابِ خَطَايَا يَرُبْعَامَ الَّتِي اسْتَغْوَى بِها الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ وَجَعَلَهُمْ يُخْطِئُونَ. | ٣١ 31 |
But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin.
| وَفِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ بَدَأَ الرَّبُّ يُخَفِّضُ مِنْ مِسَاحَةِ أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَاسْتَوْلَى حَزَائِيلُ عَلَى أَجْزَاءَ كَبِيرَةٍ مِنْ مَنَاطِقِهِمْ. | ٣٢ 32 |
In those days the LORD began to cut off parts of Israel: and Hazael smote them in all the land of Israel;
| ابْتِدَاءً مِنْ شَرْقِيِّ نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، بِمَا فِي ذَلِكَ أَرْضُ جِلْعَادَ، أَرْضُ الْجَادِيِّينَ وَالرَّأُوبَيْنِيِّينَ، وَالْمَنَسِّيِّينَ، مِنْ عَرُوعِيرَ الْقَائِمَةِ عَلَى وَادِي أَرْنُونَ وَجِلْعَادَ وَبَاشَانَ. | ٣٣ 33 |
From Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.
| أَمَّا بَقِيَّةُ أَخْبَارِ يَاهُو وَكُلُّ مَا عَمِلَهُ أَلَيْسَتْ هِيَ مُدَوَّنَةً فِي كِتَابِ أَخْبَارِ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ٣٤ 34 |
Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
| وَمَاتَ يَاهُو وَدُفِنَ فِي السَّامِرَةِ وَخَلَفَهُ ابْنُهُ يَهُوأَحَازُ. | ٣٥ 35 |
And Jehu slept with his fathers: and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.
| وَدَامَ مُلْكُ يَاهُو عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي السَّامِرَةِ ثَمَانِيَ وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً. | ٣٦ 36 |
And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty and eight years.
