2 صَمُوئيل 19
| وَقِيلَ لِيُوآبَ: «هُوَذَا الْمَلِكُ يَبْكِي وَيَنُوحُ عَلَى أَبْشَالُومَ». | ١ 1 |
And they brought Joab word, saying, Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Abessalom.
| فَتَحَوَّلَ النَّصْرُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ لَدَى جَمِيعِ الْجَيْشِ إِلَى مَنَاحَةٍ، إِذْ شَاعَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَنَّ الْمَلِكَ قَدْ حَزِنَ جِدّاً عَلَى مَصْرَعِ ابْنِهِ. | ٢ 2 |
And the victory was turned that day into mourning to all the people, for the people heard say that day, The king grieves after his son.
| فَتَسَلَّلَ أَفْرَادُ الْجَيْشِ عَائِدِينَ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ كَمَا يَتَسَلَّلُ قَوْمٌ لَحِقَ بِهِمْ عَارُ الْهَزِيمَةِ. | ٣ 3 |
And the people stole away that day to go into the city, as people steal away when they are ashamed as they flee in the battle.
| وَأَخْفَى الْمَلِكُ وَجْهَهُ بِيَدَيْهِ صَارِخاً بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «يَا ابْنِي أَبْشَالُومُ، يَا أَبْشَالُومُ ابْنِي، ابْنِي». | ٤ 4 |
And the king hid his face: and the king cried with a loud voice, My son Abessalom! Abessalom my son!
| فَتَوَجَّهَ يُوآبُ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ وَقَالَ لِلْمَلِكِ: «لَقَدْ أَخْجَلْتَ الْيَوْمَ جَمِيعَ رِجَالِكَ الَّذِينَ أَنْقَذُوكَ أَنْتَ وَأَبْنَاءَكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَنِسَاءَكَ وَمَحْظِيَّاتِكَ، | ٥ 5 |
And Joab went in to the king, into the house, and said, Thou hast this day shamed the faces of all thy servants that have delivered thee this day, and [have saved] the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the lives of thy wives, and of thy concubines,
| بِمَحَبَّتِكَ لِمُبْغِضِيكَ وَبُغْضِكَ لِمُحِبِّيكَ، فَقَدْ أَبْدَيْتَ الْيَوْمَ بِوُضُوحٍ أَنَّهُ لَا اعْتِبَارَ لَدَيْكَ لِلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَلا لِلْعَبِيدِ، لأَنِّي أَدْرَكْتُ الْيَوْمَ أَنَّهُ لَوْ كَانَ أَبْشَالُومُ حَيًّا وَكُلُّنَا هَلَكْنَا، لَطَابَ الأَمْرُ لَكَ. | ٦ 6 |
forasmuch as thou lovest them that hate thee, and hatest them that love thee; and thou hast this day declared, that thy princes and thy servants are nothing [in thy sight]: for I know this day, that if Abessalom were alive, [and] all of us dead to-day, then it would have been right in thy sight.
| فَقُمِ الآنَ وَاخْرُجْ وَاشْرَحْ قُلُوبَ رِجَالِكَ، لأَنِّي قَدْ أَقْسَمْتُ بِالرَّبِّ أَنَّهُ إِنْ لَمْ تَخْرُجْ، فَلَنْ يَبْقَى مَعَكَ أَحَدٌ اللَّيْلَةَ، فَيَكُونُ هَذَا الأَمْرُ أَسْوَأَ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ كُلِّ كَارِثَةٍ أَصَابَتْكَ مُنْذُ صِبَاكَ إِلَى الآنَ». | ٧ 7 |
And now arise, and go forth, and speak comfortably to thy servants; for I have sworn by the Lord, that unless thou wilt go forth to-day, there shall not a man remain with thee this night: and know for thyself, this thing [will] indeed [be] evil to thee beyond all the evil that has come upon thee from thy youth until now.
| فَقَامَ الْمَلِكُ وَجَلَسَ عِنْدَ بَوَّابَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ. فَذَاعَ الْخَبَرُ بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ أَوْسَاطِ الْجَيْشِ أَنَّ المَلِكَ جَاِلسٌ عِنْدَ الْبَوَّابَةِ، فَأَقْبَلَ الجَيْشُ إلَيْهِ. أَمَّا الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ فَهَرَبُوا لائِذِينَ بِبُيُوتِهِمْ. | ٨ 8 |
Then the king arose, and sat in the gate: and all the people reported, saying, Behold, the king sits in the gate. And all the people went in before the king to the gate; for Israel had fled every man to his tent.
| وَنَشَبَتْ خُصُومَاتٌ بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّ الْمَلِكَ قَدْ أَنْقَذَنَا مِنْ قَبْضَةِ أَعْدَائِنَا، وَخَلَّصَنَا مِنْ حُكْمِ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، وَهَا هُوَ قَدْ هَرَبَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ لِيَنْجُوَ مِنْ أَبْشَالُومَ. | ٩ 9 |
And all the people disputed among all the tribes of Israel, saying, King David delivered us from all our enemies, and he rescued us from the hand of the Philistines: and now he has fled from the land, and from his kingdom, and from Abessalom.
| وَأَبْشَالُومُ الَّذِي نَصَّبْنَاهُ مَلِكاً عَلَيْنَا مَاتَ فِي الْحَرْبِ. فَالآنَ لِمَاذَا أَنْتُمْ مُتَقَاعِسُونَ عَنْ إِرْجَاعِ الْمَلِكِ؟» | ١٠ 10 |
And Abessalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle: and now why are ye silent about bringing back the king? And the word of all Israel came to the king.
| وَبَعَثَ الْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ إِلَى صَادُوقَ وَأَبِيَاثَارَ الْكَاهِنَيْنِ قَائِلاً: «اسْأَلا شُيُوخَ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِمَاذَا تَكُونُونَ آخِرَ مَنْ يُطَالِبُ بِعَوْدَةِ الْمَلِكِ إِلَى مَقَرِّهِ، وَقَدْ بَلَغَ مَسَامِعَ الْمَلِكِ فِي بَيْتِهِ كُلُّ مَا قِيلَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ١١ 11 |
And king David sent to Sadoc and Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak to the elders of Israel, saying, Why are ye the last to bring back the king to his house? whereas the word of all Israel is come to the king to his house.
| أَنْتُمْ إِخْوَتِي وَعَظْمِي وَلَحْمِي، فَلِمَاذَا تَكُونُونَ آخِرَ مَنْ يُطَالِبُ بِإِرْجَاعِ الْمَلِكِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Ye [are] my brethren, ye [are] my bones and my flesh: why are ye the last to bring back the king to his house?
| وَقُولا لِعَمَاسَا: أَلَسْتَ أَنْتَ مِنْ لَحْمِي وَعَظْمِي؟ فَلْيُعَاقِبْنِي الرَّبُّ أَشَدَّ عِقَابٍ وَيَزِدْ، إِنْ لَمْ أَجْعَلْكَ طَوَالَ حَيَاتِكَ قَائِداً لِجَيْشِي بَدَلَ يُوآبَ». | ١٣ 13 |
And ye shall say to Amessai, [Art] thou not my bone and my flesh? and now God do so to me, and more also, if thou shalt not be commander of the host before me continually in the room of Joab.
| فَاسْتَمَالَ بِذَلِكَ قُلُوبَ جَمِيعِ رِجَالِ يَهُوذَا كَرَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ، فَأَرْسَلُوا إِلَيْهِ يُنَاشِدُونَهُ الرُّجُوعَ قَائِلِينَ: «عُدْ أَنْتَ وَجَمِيعُ رِجَالِكَ». | ١٤ 14 |
And he bowed the heart of all the men of Juda as that of one man; and they sent to the king, saying, Return thou, and all thy servants.
| فَرَجَعَ الْمَلِكُ حَتَّى بَلَغَ الأُرْدُنَّ، فَتَوَافَدَ رِجَالُ يَهُوذَا إِلَى الْجِلْجَالِ لاِسْتِقْبَالِهِ وَالْعُبُورِ بِهِ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ. | ١٥ 15 |
And the king returned, and came as far as Jordan. And the men of Juda came to Galgala on their way to meet the king, to cause the king to pass over Jordan.
| وَأَسْرَعَ شِمْعِي بْنُ جِيرَا الْبَنْيَامِينِيُّ، الَّذِي مِنْ بَحُورِيمَ، وَرَافَقَ رِجَالَ يَهُوذَا لاسْتِقْبَالِ الْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ، | ١٦ 16 |
And Semei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, of Baurim, hasted and went down with the men of Juda to meet king David.
| وَمَعَهُ أَلْفُ رَجُلٍ مِنْ سِبْطِ بِنْيَامِينَ، كَمَا جَاءَ صِيبَا خَادِمُ شَاوُلَ وَمَعَهُ أَوْلادُهُ الْخَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ وَعَبِيدُهُ الْعِشْرُونَ، وَخَاضُوا نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ أَمَامَ الْمَلِكِ. | ١٧ 17 |
And a thousand men of Benjamin [were] with him, and Siba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons with him, and his twenty servants with him: and they went directly down to Jordan before the king,
| وَإِذِ اجْتَازُوا الْمَخَاضَةَ لِمُوَاكَبَةِ بَيْتِ الْمَلِكِ وَعَمَلِ مَا يَسْتَحْوِذُ عَلَى رِضَاهُ، مَثَلَ شِمْعِي بْنُ جِيرَا أَمَامَ المَلِكِ عِنْدَ عُبُورِهِ الأُرْدُنَّ وَسَجَدَ لَهُ مُتَوَسِّلاً | ١٨ 18 |
and they performed the service of bringing the king over; and there went over a ferry-boat to remove the household of the king, and to do that which was right in his eyes. And Semei the son of Gera fell on his face before the king, as he went over Jordan;
| قَائِلاً: «لِيَغْفِرْ لِي سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ إِثْمِي وَلا يَذْكُرِ افْتِرَاءَ عَبْدِهِ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَمَا خَرَجَ المَلِكُ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَلا يَكْتُمْ ذَلِكَ فِي قَلْبِهِ، | ١٩ 19 |
and said to the king, Let not my lord now impute iniquity, and remember not all the iniquity of thy servant in the day in which my lord went out from Jerusalem, so that the king should mind it.
| لأَنَّ عَبْدَكَ قَدْ أَدْرَكَ أَنِّي قَدْ أَخْطَأْتُ، هَا أَنَا قَدْ جِئْتُ الْيَوْمَ فِي طَلِيعَةِ بَيْتِ يُوسُفَ لاسْتِقْبَالِ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكِ». | ٢٠ 20 |
For thy servant knows that I have sinned: and, behold, I am come to-day before all Israel and the house of Joseph, to go down and meet my lord the king.
| فَقَالَ أَبِيشَايُ بْنُ صُرُويَّةَ: «أَلا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُقْتَلَ شِمْعِي لأَجْلِ هَذَا؟ لَقَدْ شَتَمَ مُخْتَارَ الرَّبِّ». | ٢١ 21 |
And Abessai the son of Saruia answered and said, Shall not Semei therefore be put to death, because he cursed the Lord's anointed?
| فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ: «كُفَّا عَنِّي يَاابْنَيْ صُرُويَّةَ، فَلِمَاذَا تُقَاوِمَانِنِي؟ أَيُقْتَلُ الْيَوْمَ أَحَدٌ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ أَلَسْتُ أَنَا الآنَ مَلِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟» | ٢٢ 22 |
And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Saruia, that ye as it were lie in wait against me this day? to-day no man in Israel shall be put to death, for I know not if I this day reign over Israel.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ الْمَلِكُ لِشِمْعِي: «لَنْ تَمُوتَ». وَأَقْسَمَ لَهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And the king said to Semei, Thou shalt not die: and the king swore to him.
| وَكَذَلِكَ جَاءَ مَفِيبُوشَثُ حَفِيدُ شَاوُلَ لِلِقَاءِ الْمَلِكِ، وَكَانَ قَدْ أَهْمَلَ الاعْتِنَاءَ بِرِجْلَيْهِ وَلِحْيَتِهِ، وَلَمْ يَغْسِلْ ثِيَابَهُ مُنْذُ الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي غَادَرَ فِيهِ الْمَلِكُ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى حِينِ رُجُوعِهِ سَالِماً. | ٢٤ 24 |
And Memphibosthe the son of Saul's son went down to meet the king, and had not dressed his feet, nor pared his nails, nor shaved himself, neither had he washed his garments, from the day that the king departed, until the day when he arrived in peace.
| وَعِنْدَمَا جَاءَ لِلِقَائِهِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ سَأَلَهُ الْمَلِكُ: «لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَأْتِ مَعِي يَا مَفِيبُوشَثُ؟» | ٢٥ 25 |
And it came to pass when he went into Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said to him, Why didst thou not go with me, Memphibosthe?
| فَأَجَابَ: «إِنَّ عَبْدَكَ يَا سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ أَعْرَجُ، فَقُلْتُ لِنَفْسِي. أُسْرِجُ حِمَارِي وَأَرْكَبُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَمْضِي مَعَ المَلِكِ، وَلَكِنَّ صِيبَا وَكِيلَ أَعْمَالِي خَدَعَنِي، | ٢٦ 26 |
And Memphibosthe said to him, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me; for thy servant said to him, Saddle me the ass, and I will ride upon it, and go with the king; for thy servant [is] lame.
| وَوَشَى بِعَبْدِكَ بُهْتَاناً إِلَى سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكِ، وَسَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ كَمَلاكِ اللهِ. فَافْعَلْ مَا يَرُوقُ لَكَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
And he has dealt deceitfully with thy servant to my lord the king: but my lord the king [is] as an angel of God, and do thou that which is good in thine eyes.
| إِنَّ كُلَّ بَيْتِ أَبِي لَا يَسْتَحِقُّونَ مِنْكَ شَيْئاً سِوَى الْمَوْتِ، وَلَكِنَّكَ أَكْرَمْتَنِي، فَجَعَلْتَ عَبْدَكَ بَيْنَ الآكِلِينَ عَلَى مَائِدَتِكَ، فَأَيُّ حَقٍّ لِي بَعْدُ أُطَالِبُ بِهِ الْمَلِكَ؟» | ٢٨ 28 |
For all the house of my father were but as dead men before my lord the king; yet thou hast set thy servant among them that eat at thy table: and what right have I any longer even to cry to the king?
| فَأَجَابَهُ الْمَلِكُ: «كَفَاكَ حَدِيثاً عَنْ شُؤُونِكَ، لَقَدْ أَمَرْتُ أَنْ تَقْسِمَ أَنْتَ وَصِيبَا الْحُقُولَ». | ٢٩ 29 |
And the king said to him, Why speakest thou any longer of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Siba shall divide the land.
| فَقَالَ مَفِيبُوشَثُ: «فَلْيَأْخُذْهَا كُلَّهَا بَعْدَ أَنْ عَادَ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ بِسَلامٍ». | ٣٠ 30 |
And Memphibosthe said to the king, Yea, let him take all, since my lord the king has come in peace to his house.
| وَنَزَلَ بَرْزِلايُ الْجِلْعَادِيُّ مِنْ رُوجَلِيمَ وَعَبَرَ الأُرْدُنَّ مَعَ الْمَلِكِ لِيُشَيِّعَهُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ. | ٣١ 31 |
And Berzelli the Galaadite came down from Rogellim, and crossed over Jordan with the king, that he might conduct the king over Jordan.
| وَكَانَ بَرْزِلايُ قَدْ طَعَنَ فِي السِّنِّ وَبَلَغَ الثَّمَانِينَ عَاماً، وَكَانَ قَدْ عَالَ الْمَلِكَ عِنْدَ إِقَامَتِهِ فِي مَحَنَايِمَ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ رَجُلاً ثَرِيًّا جِدّاً. | ٣٢ 32 |
And Berzelli was a very old man, eighty years old; and he had maintained the king when he dwelt in Manaim; for he was a very great man.
| فَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ لِبَرْزِلايَ: «تَعَالَ مَعِي لأُورُشَلِيمَ فَأَقُومَ عَلَى إِعَالَتِكَ» | ٣٣ 33 |
And the king said to Berzelli, Thou shalt go over with me, and I will nourish thine old age with me in Jerusalem.
| فَأَجَابَ بَرْزِلايُ: «كَمْ بَقِيَ لِي مِنَ الْعُمْرِ حَتَّى أَصْعَدَ مَعَ الْمَلِكِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ؟ | ٣٤ 34 |
And Berzelli said to the king, How many [are] the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
| أَنَا الْيَوْمَ قَدْ بَلَغْتُ الثَّمَانِيَن، فَهَلْ أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أُمَيِّزَ بَيْنَ الطَّيِّبِ وَالرَّدِيءِ؟ وَهَلْ يَلْتَذُّ عَبْدُكَ بِمَا يَأْكُلُ وَيَشْرَبُ؟ وَهَلْ مَازِلْتُ قَادِراً عَلَى الاسْتِمَاعِ إِلَى أَصْوَاتِ الْمُغَنِّينَ وَالْمُغَنِّيَاتِ؟ فَلِمَاذَا يُصْبِحُ عَبْدُكَ عِبْئاً عَلَى سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكِ؟ | ٣٥ 35 |
I am this day eighty years old: can I then distinguish between good and evil? Can thy servant taste any longer what I eat or drink? can I any longer hear the voice of singing men or singing women? and wherefore shall thy servant any longer be a burden to my lord the king?
| لِيُرَافِقْ عَبْدُكَ مَوْكِبَكَ قَلِيلاً بَعْدَ عُبُورِكَ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ. وَلَكِنْ عَلامَ يُكَافِئُنِي الْمَلِكُ هَذِهِ الْمُكَافَأَةَ؟ | ٣٦ 36 |
Thy servant will go a little way over Jordan with the king: and why does the king return me this recompense?
| دَعْنِي أَرْجِعُ لأَمُوتَ فِي مَدِينَتِي بِجِوَارِ ضَرِيحِ أَبِي وَأُمِّي، وَهَا هُوَ وَلَدِي كِمْهَامُ يَذْهَبُ مَعَ سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكِ فَكَافِئْهُ بِمَا يَحْلُو لَكَ». | ٣٧ 37 |
Let, I pray thee, thy servant remain, and I will die in my city, by the tomb of my father and of my mother. And, behold, thy servant Chamaam shall go over with my lord the king; and do thou to him as it seems good in thine eyes.
| فَأَجَابَ الْمَلِكُ: «لِيُرَافِقْنِي كِمْهَامُ فَأُجْزِلَ لَهُ مَا يَرُوقُ لَكَ مِنْ مُكَافَأَةٍ وَكُلُّ مَا تَتَمَنَّاهُ مِنِّي أُلَبِّيهِ لَكَ». | ٣٨ 38 |
And the king said, Let Chamaam go over with me, and I will do to him what is good in my sight; and whatsoever thou shalt choose at my hand, I will do for thee.
| فَاجْتَازَ جَمِيعُ الشَّعْبِ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ وَكَذَلِكَ فَعَلَ الْمَلِكُ. وَقَبَّلَ الْمَلِكُ بَرْزِلايَ وَبَارَكَهُ، ثُمَّ قَفَلَ هَذَا رَاجِعاً إِلَى مَحَلِّ إِقَامَتِهِ. | ٣٩ 39 |
And all the people went over Jordan, and the king went over; and the king kissed Berzelli, and blessed him; and he returned to his place.
| وَتَوَجَّهَ الْمَلِكُ إِلَى الْجِلْجَالِ يُرَافِقُهُ كِمْهَامُ وَسَائِرُ شَعْبِ يَهُوذَا الَّذِينَ وَاكَبُوهُ مُجْتَازِينَ بِهِ نَهْرَ الأُردُنِّ، وَكَذَلِكَ نِصْفُ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٤٠ 40 |
And the king went over to Galgala, and Chamaam went over with him: and all the men of Juda went over with the king, and also half the people of Israel.
| وَاجْتَمَعَ رِجَالُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقَالُوا لِلْمَلِكِ: «لِمَاذَا أَخَذَكَ إِخْوَتُنَا رِجَالُ يَهُوذَا خُفْيَةً، وَعَبَرُوا الأُرْدُنَّ بِالْمَلِكِ وَبِأَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَبِكُلِّ رِجَالِ دَاوُدَ؟» | ٤١ 41 |
And behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, Why have our brethren the men of Juda stolen thee away, and caused the king and all his house to pass over Jordan, and all the men of David with him?
| فَأَجَابَ رِجَالُ يَهُوذَا رِجَالَ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «لأَنَّ الْمَلِكَ قَرِيبٌ لَنَا، فَمَاذَا يُثِيرُ غَيْظَكُمْ فِي هَذَا الأَمْرِ؟ هَلْ أَكَلْنَا شَيْئاً مِنْ مَؤُونَةِ الْمَلِكِ؟ هَلْ نِلْنَا مُكَافَأَةً عَلَى ذَلِكَ؟» | ٤٢ 42 |
And all the men of Juda answered the men of Israel, and said, Because the king is near of kin to us: and why were you thus angry concerning this matter? have we indeed eaten of the king's food? or has he given us a gift, or has he sent us a portion?
| فَقَالَ رِجَالُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِرِجَالِ يَهُوذَا: «إِنَّ لَنَا عَشَرَةَ سِهَامٍ فِي الْمَلِكِ، وَنَحْنُ أَوْلَى مِنْكُمْ بِدَاوُدَ، فَلِمَاذَا اسْتَخْفَفْتُمْ بِنَا؟ أَوَ لَمْ نَكُنْ نَحْنُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ تَحَدَّثَ عَنْ إِرْجَاعِ مَلِكِنَا؟» فَكَانَ رَدُّ رِجَالِ يَهُوذَا أَغْلَظَ مِنْ كَلامِ رِجَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٤٣ 43 |
And the men of Israel answered the men of Juda, and said, We have ten parts in the king, and we are older than you, we have also an interest in David above you: and why have ye thus insulted us, and why was not our advice taken before that of Juda, to bring back our king? And the speech of the men of Juda was sharper than the speech of the men of Israel.
