2 مُلُوك 17
| وَفِي السَّنَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ حُكْمِ آحَازَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، اعْتَلَى هُوشَعُ بْنُ أَيْلَةَ عَرْشَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي السَّامِرَةِ، لِمُدَّةِ تِسْعِ سَنَوَاتٍ. | ١ 1 |
In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to reign in Samaria over Israel, and reigned nine years.
| وَارْتَكَبَ الشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ، إِلّا أَنَّهُ كَانَ أَفْضَلَ قَلِيلاً مِنْ أَسْلافِهِ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢ 2 |
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, yet not as the kings of Israel that were before him.
| وَزَحَفَ عَلَيْهِ شَلْمَنْأَسَرُ مَلِكُ أَشُورَ فَصَارَ هُوشَعُ لَهُ تَابِعاً يَدْفَعُ لَهُ جِزْيَةً. | ٣ 3 |
Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and brought him presents.
| وَمَالَبِثَ أَنِ اكْتَشَفَ مَلِكُ أَشُورَ خِيَانَةَ هُوشَعَ، الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ وَفْداً يَسْتَغِيثُ بِسَوَا مَلِكِ مِصْرَ، وَلَمْ يُؤَدِّ جِزْيَةً لِمَلِكِ أَشُورَ كَعَهْدِهِ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ، فَقَبَضَ عَلَيْهِ مَلِكُ أَشُورَ وَزَجَّهُ مُوْثَقاً فِي السِّجْنِ. | ٤ 4 |
And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea; for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and offered no present to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year; therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.
| وَاجْتَاحَ مَلِكُ أَشُورَ أَرْضَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَحَاصَرَ السَّامِرَةَ ثَلاثَ سَنَوَاتٍ. | ٥ 5 |
Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.
| وَفِي السَّنَةِ التَّاسِعَةِ مِنْ حُكْمِ هُوشَعَ سَقَطَتِ السَّامِرَةُ، فَسَبَى مَلِكُ أَشُورَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ إِلَى أَشُورَ وَأَسْكَنَهُمْ فِي مَدِينَةِ حَلَحَ، وَعَلَى ضِفَافِ نَهْرِ خَابُورَ فِي مِنْطَقَةِ جُوزَانَ، وَفِي مُدُنِ مَادِي. | ٦ 6 |
In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away unto Assyria, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor, on the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
| وَقَدْ حَلَّتْ هَذِهِ النَّكْبَةُ بِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لأَنَّهُمْ أَثِمُوا فِي حَقِّ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمِ الَّذِي أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، مِنْ تَحْتِ نِيرِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَعَبَدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، | ٧ 7 |
And it was so, because the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
| سَالِكِينَ حَسَبَ فَرَائِضِ الأُمَمِ الَّذِينَ طَرَدَهُمُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِهِمْ، وَمِنْ أَمَامِ مُلُوكِهِمْ الَّذِينَ نَصَّبُوهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ. | ٨ 8 |
and walked in the statutes of the nations, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they practised;
| وَارْتَكَبَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي الْخَفَاءِ مَعَاصِيَ فِي حَقِّ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ، وَشَيَّدُوا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ مُرْتَفَعَاتٍ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِهِمْ مِنْ بُرْجِ النَّوَاطِيرِ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ الْمُحَصَّنَةِ، | ٩ 9 |
and the children of Israel did impute things that were not right unto the LORD their God, and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city;
| وَأَقَامُوا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ أَنْصَاباً وَتَمَاثِيلَ لِعَشْتَارُوثَ عَلَى كُلِّ تَلٍّ مُرْتَفِعٍ، وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ، | ١٠ 10 |
and they set them up pillars and Asherim upon every high hill, and under every leafy tree;
| وَقَرَّبُوا مُحْرَقَاتٍ عَلَى جَمِيعِ الْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ كَسَائِرِ الأُمَمِ الَّذِينَ نَفَاهُمُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِهِمْ، وَاقْتَرَفُوا الْمُوبِقَاتِ لإِغَاظَةِ الرَّبِّ، | ١١ 11 |
and there they offered in all the high places, as did the nations whom the LORD carried away before them; and wrought wicked things to provoke the LORD;
| عَابِدِينَ الأَصْنَامَ الَّتِي حَذَّرَهُمْ وَنَهَاهُمُ الرَّبُّ عَنْهَا. | ١٢ 12 |
and they served idols, whereof the LORD had said unto them: 'Ye shall not do this thing';
| وَقَدْ أَنْذَرَ الرَّبُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا عَنْ طَرِيقِ أَنْبِيَائِهِ وَرَائِيهِ قَائِلاً: «ارْجِعُوا عَنْ طُرُقِكُمُ الأَثِيمَةِ، وَأَطِيعُوا وَصَايَايَ وَفَرَائِضِي بِمُقْتَضَى كُلِّ الشَّرِيعَةِ الَّتِي أَوْصَيْتُ آبَاءَكُمْ بِتَطْبِيقِهَا، وَالَّتِي أَعْلَنْتُهَا لَكُمْ عَلَى لِسَانِ عَبِيدِي الأَنْبِيَاءِ». | ١٣ 13 |
yet the LORD forewarned Israel, and Judah, by the hand of every prophet, and of every seer, saying: 'Turn ye from your evil ways, and keep My commandments and My statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by the hand of My servants the prophets';
| لَكِنَّهُمْ أَصَمُّوا أَذَانَهُمْ وَأَغْلَظُوا قُلُوبَهُمْ كَآبَائِهِمِ الَّذِينَ لَمْ يَثِقُوا بِالرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ، | ١٤ 14 |
notwithstanding they would not hear, but hardened their neck, like to the neck of their fathers, who believed not in the LORD their God;
| وَتَنَكَّرُوا لِفَرَائِضِهِ وَعَهْدِهِ الَّذِي أَبْرَمَهُ مَعَ آبَائِهِمْ، وَتَجَاهَلُوا تَحْذِيرَاتِهِ وَنَوَاهِيَهُ لَهُمْ، وَضَلُّوا وَرَاءَ أَصْنَامٍ بَاطِلَةٍ، فَأَصْبَحُوا هُمْ أَنْفُسُهُمْ بَاطِلِينَ، وَتَمَثَّلُوا بِالأُمَمِ الَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُمْ، مَعَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ أَمَرَهُمْ أَلّا يَفْعَلُوا مِثْلَهُمْ، وَارْتَكَبُوا أُمُوراً نَهَاهُمُ الرَّبُّ عَنْهَا، | ١٥ 15 |
and they rejected His statutes, and His covenant that He made with their fathers, and His testimonies wherewith He testified against them; and they went after things of nought, and became nought, and after the nations that were round about them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them that they should not do like them;
| وَنَبَذُوا جَمِيعَ وَصَايَا الرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ، وَصَنَعُوا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ عِجْلَيْنِ مَسْبُوكَيْنِ، وَأَقَامُوا تَمَاثِيلَ لِعَشْتَارُوثَ وَسَجَدُوا لِجَمِيعِ كَوَاكِبِ السَّمَاءِ وَعَبَدُوا الْبَعْلَ. | ١٦ 16 |
and they forsook all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made an Asherah, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal;
| وَأَجَازُوا أَبْنَاءَهُمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ فِي النَّارِ، وَتَعَاطَوْا العِرَافَةَ وَالْفَأْلَ وَبَاعُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ لاِرْتِكَابِ الشَّرِّ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ لإِثَارَةِ غَيْظِهِ. | ١٧ 17 |
and they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and gave themselves over to do that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him;
| فَاحْتَدَمَ غَضَبُ الرَّبِّ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَطَرَدَهُمْ مِنْ حَضْرَتِهِ، وَلَمْ يُبْقِ سِوَى سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا. | ١٨ 18 |
that the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of His sight; there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.
| وَلَكِنْ حَتَّى سِبْطُ يَهُوذَا لَمْ يَحْفَظْ وَصَايَا الرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ بَلْ نَهَجَ فِي طُرُقِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّتِي سَلَكَتْهَا. | ١٩ 19 |
Also Judah kept not the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they practised.
| فَنَبَذَ الرَّبُّ كُلَّ ذُرِّيَّةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَأَذَلَّهُمْ وَأَسْلَمَهُمْ لِيَدِ آسِرِيهِمْ، وَطَرَدَهُمْ مِنْ حَضْرَتِهِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And the LORD rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until He had cast them out of His sight.
| لأَنَّهُ شَقَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ، فَتَوَّجُوا يَرُبْعَامَ بْنَ نَبَاطَ مَلِكاً عَلَيْهِمْ، فَأَضَلَّ يَرُبْعَامُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ طَرِيقِ الرَّبِّ وَاسْتَغْوَاهُمْ فَأَخْطَأُوا بِحَقِّ الرَّبِّ خَطِيئَةً عَظِيمَةً. | ٢١ 21 |
For He rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king; and Jeroboam drew Israel away from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.
| وَلَمْ يَعْدِلِ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ عَنِ ارْتِكَابِ جَمِيعِ خَطَايَا يَرُبْعَامَ بَلْ أَمْعَنُوا فِي اقْتِرَافِهَا | ٢٢ 22 |
And the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them;
| فَنَفَى الرَّبُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ حَضْرَتِهِ كَمَا نَطَقَ عَلَى لِسَانِ جَمِيعِ عَبِيدِهِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ، فَسُبِيَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمْ إِلَى أَشُّورَ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
until the LORD removed Israel out of His sight, as He spoke by the hand of all His servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away out of their own land to Assyria, unto this day.
| وَنَقَلَ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ أَقْوَاماً مِنْ بَابِلَ وَكُوثَ وَعَوَّا وَحَمَاةَ وَسَفَرْوَايِمَ، وَأَسْكَنَهُمْ مُدُنَ السَّامِرَةِ مَحَلَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَاسْتَوْلَوْا عَلَى السَّامِرَةِ وَأَقَامُوا فِي مُدُنِهَا. | ٢٤ 24 |
And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Avva, and from Hamath and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel; and they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
| وَإِذْ لَمْ يَعْبُدِ الْمُسْتَوْطِنُونَ الْجُدَدُ الرَّبَّ فِي بَادِئِ الأَمْرِ، فَقَدْ أَطْلَقَ الرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِمِ السِّبَاعَ الْمُتَوَحِّشَةَ فَافْتَرَسَتْ بَعْضَهُمْ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And so it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they feared not the LORD; therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which killed some of them.
| فَبَعَثُوا إِلَى مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ رِسَالَةً قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّ الأَقْوَامَ الَّذِينَ قُمْتَ بِسَبْيِهِمْ وَإِسْكَانِهِمْ فِي مُدُنِ السَّامِرَةِ يَجْهَلُونَ قَضَاءَ إِلَهِ هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ، فَأَطْلَقَ عَلَيْهِمِ السِّبَاعَ فَافْتَرَسَتْهُمْ، لأَنَّهُمْ يَجْهَلُونَ قَضَاءَهُ». | ٢٦ 26 |
Wherefore they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying: 'The nations which thou hast carried away, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land; therefore He hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.'
| فَأَمَرَ مَلِكُ أَشُورَ قَائِلاً: «ابْعَثُوا إِلَى هُنَاكَ أَحَدَ الْكَهَنَةِ الْمَسْبِيِّينَ فِي تِلْكَ الْبِلادِ، لِيُقِيمَ بَيْنَهُمْ، وَيُلَقِّنَهُمْ قَضَاءَ إِلَهِ الأَرْضِ». | ٢٧ 27 |
Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying: 'Carry thither one of the priests whom ye brought from thence; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the manner of the God of the land.'
| فَجَاءَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الْكَهَنَةِ الْمَسْبِيِّينَ مِنَ السَّامِرَةِ وَأَقَامَ فِي بَيْتِ إِيلَ، وَشَرَعَ يُلَقِّنُهُمْ كَيْفَ يَتَّقُونَ الرَّبَّ. | ٢٨ 28 |
So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Beth-el, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.
| وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ ظَلَّ كُلُّ قَوْمٍ يَصْنَعُونَ آلِهَتَهُمْ وَيَنْصِبُونَهَا فِي مَعَابِدِ الْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ الَّتِي شَيَّدَهَا السَّامِرِيُّونَ فِي الْمُدُنِ الَّتِي يُقِيمُونَ فِيهَا. | ٢٩ 29 |
Howbeit every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt.
| فَعَبَدَ الْقَادِمُونَ مِنْ بَابِلَ أَصْنَامَ إِلَهِهِمْ سُكُّوثَ بَنُوثَ؛ وَعَبَدَ الْقَادِمُونَ مِنْ كُوثَ أَصْنَامَ إِلَهِهِمْ نَرْجَلَ، وَعَبَدَ الْقَادِمُونَ مِنْ حَمَاةَ أَصْنَامَ إِلَهِهِمْ أشِيمَا، | ٣٠ 30 |
And the men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
| كَمَا عَبَدَ أَهْلُ عَوَّا نِبْحَزَ وَتَرْتَاقَ. أَمَّا أَهْلُ سَفَرْوَايِمَ فَكَانُوا يُحْرِقُونَ أَبْنَاءَهُمْ بِالنَّارِ قَرَابِينَ لأَدْرَمَّلَكَ وَعَنَمَّلَكَ إِلَهَيْ سَفَرْوَايِمَ. | ٣١ 31 |
and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burnt their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.
| فَكَانُوا يَعْبُدُونَ الرَّبَّ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ أَيْضاً أَقَامُوا مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ كَهَنَةً يَخْدُمُونَ فِي مَعَابِدِ الْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ، وَيُقَرِّبُونَ مُحْرَقَاتِهِمْ فِيهَا. | ٣٢ 32 |
So they feared the LORD, and made unto them from among themselves priests of the high places, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.
| وَهَكَذَا كَانُوا يَتَّقُونَ الرَّبَّ مِنْ نَاحِيَةٍ، وَيَعْبُدُونَ آلِهَتَهُمُ الَّتِي حَمَلُوهَا مَعَهُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي سُبُوا مِنْهَا مِنْ نَاحِيَةٍ أُخْرَى. | ٣٣ 33 |
They feared the LORD, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations from among whom they had been carried away.
| فَهُمْ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ، يُمَارِسُونَ طُقُوسَهُمُ الأُولَى. فَأَصْبَحَتْ عِبَادَتُهُمْ خَلِيطاً مِنْ تَقْوَى الرَّبِّ وَمِنَ الطُّقُوسِ وَالْفَرَائِضِ الْوَثَنِيَّةِ، وَفْقاً لِتَقَالِيدِهِمْ، وَلَيْسَ بِمُقْتَضَى شَرِيعَةِ الرَّبِّ وَالْوَصِيَّةِ الَّتِي أَمَرَ بِها ذُرِّيَّةَ يَعْقُوبَ الَّذِي حَوَّلَ اسْمَهُ إِلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣٤ 34 |
Unto this day they do after the former manners: they fear not the LORD, neither do they after their statutes, or after their ordinances, or after the law or after the commandment which the LORD commanded the children of Jacob, whom He named Israel;
| فَقَدْ قَطَعَ الرَّبُّ مَعَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَهْداً وَأَمَرَهُمْ أَلّا يَعْبُدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى وَلا يَسْجُدُوا لَهَا وَلا يَتَّقُوهَا وَلا يُقَرِّبُوا لَهَا الذَّبَائِحَ، | ٣٥ 35 |
with whom the LORD had made a covenant, and charged them, saying: 'Ye shall not fear other gods, nor bow down to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them;
| بَلْ يَتَّقُوا الرَّبَّ الَّذِي أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ بِقُوَّةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ مُقْتَدِرَةٍ، وَلَهُ وَحْدَهُ يَسْجُدُونَ وَيُقَرِّبُونَ الْمُحْرَقَاتِ، | ٣٦ 36 |
but the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with an outstretched arm, Him shall ye fear, and Him shall ye worship, and to Him shall ye sacrifice;
| وَيُطِيعُونَ الْفَرَائِضَ وَالأَحْكَامَ وَالشَّرِيعَةَ وَالْوَصِيَّةَ الَّتِي كَتَبَهَا لَهُمْ لِيُمَارِسُوهَا كُلَّ حَيَاتِهِمْ وَلا يَتَّقُونَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى. | ٣٧ 37 |
and the statutes and the ordinances, and the law and the commandment, which He wrote for you, ye shall observe to do for evermore; and ye shall not fear other gods;
| وَلا يَنْقُضُونَ الْعَهْدَ الَّذِي أَبْرَمَهُ مَعَهُمْ وَلا يَتَّقُونَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى. | ٣٨ 38 |
and the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods;
| إِنَّمَا يَتَّقُونَ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَهُمْ وَهُوَ يُنَجِّيهِمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ. | ٣٩ 39 |
but the LORD your God shall ye fear; and He will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.'
| وَلَكِنَّ هَؤُلاءِ السُّكَّانَ أَصَمُّوا آذَانَهُمْ وَمَارَسُوا طُقُوسَهُمُ الْقَدِيمَةَ، | ٤٠ 40 |
Howbeit they did not hearken, but they did after their former manner.
| فَكَانُوا يَتَّقُونَ الرَّبَّ مِنْ نَاحِيَةٍ، وَيَعْبُدُونَ أَوْثَانَهُمْ مِنْ نَاحِيَةٍ أُخْرَى. وَاقْتَفَى بَنُوهُمْ خُطَاهُمْ فِي مُمَارَسَاتِهِمْ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٤١ 41 |
So these nations feared the LORD, and served their graven images; their children likewise, and their children's children, as did their fathers, so do they unto this day.
