< دانيال 3 >
ثُمَّ صَنَعَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ تِمْثَالاً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، ارْتِفَاعُهُ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعاً (نَحْوَ ثَلاثِينَ مِتْراً)، وَعَرْضُهُ سِتُّ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ أَمْتَارٍ)، وَنَصَبَهُ فِي سَهْلِ دُورَا فِي وِلايَةِ بَابِلَ. | ١ 1 |
King Nebuchadnezzar made a gold statue that was sixty cubits tall and six cubits wide. He set it up in the Plain of Dura in the province of Babylon.
وَاسْتَدْعَى نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ الْمَلِكُ جَمِيعَ أَقْطَابِ الدَّوْلَةِ وَوُلاتِهَا وَحُكَّامِهَا وَقُضَاتِهَا وَأُمَنَاءِ خَزَائِنِهَا وَمُسْتَشَارِيهَا، وَسَائِرَ كِبَارِ مُوَظَّفِي الأَقَالِيمِ، لِيَأْتُوا لِلاشْتِرَاكِ فِي تَدْشِينِ التِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ. | ٢ 2 |
Then Nebuchadnezzar sent messages out to gather together the provincial governors, regional governors, and local governors, together with the counselors, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the high officials of the provinces to come to the dedication of the statue that he had set up.
فَاجْتَمَعَ الأَقْطَابُ وَالْحُكَّامُ وَالْقُضَاةُ وَأُمَنَاءُ الْخَزَائِنِ وَالْمُسْتَشَارُونَ وَسَائِرُ عُظَمَاءِ الأَقَالِيمِ لِتَدْشِينِ التِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ وَمَثَلُوا أَمَامَهُ. | ٣ 3 |
Then the provincial governors, regional governors, and local governors, together with the counselors, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the high officials of the provinces gathered together to the dedication of the statue that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. They stood before it.
وَصَاحَ مُنَادٍ بِصَوْتٍ عَالٍ: «أَيُّهَا الشُّعُوبُ وَالأُمَمُ مِنْ كُلِّ لُغَةٍ وَلِسَانٍ، قَدْ صَدَرَ لَكُمْ أَمْرٌ | ٤ 4 |
Then a herald loudly shouted, “You are commanded, peoples, nations, and languages,
أَنَّكُمْ حِينَ تَسْمَعُونَ أَصْوَاتَ بُوقِ الْقَرْنِ وَالنَّايِ وَالْعُودِ وَالرَّبَابِ وَالْقِيثَارَةِ الْمُثَلَّثَةِ وَالْمِزْمَارِ وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ الْمُوسِيقَى، تَنْحَنُونَ وَتَسْجُدُونَ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ الْمَلِكُ. | ٥ 5 |
that at the time you hear the sound of the horns, flutes, zithers, lyres, harps, and pipes, and all kinds of music, you must fall down and prostrate yourselves to the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up.
وَكُلُّ مَنْ لَا يَنْحَنِي وَيَسْجُدُ، يُلْقَى فَوْراً فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ». | ٦ 6 |
Whoever does not fall down and worship, at that very moment, will be thrown into a blazing furnace.”
لِهَذَا حَالَمَا سَمِعَتِ الشُّعُوبُ الْحَاضِرَةُ أَصْوَاتَ تِلْكَ الالاتِ الْمُوسِيقِيَّةِ الْمُخْتَلِفَةِ، انْحَنَتْ وَسَجَدَتْ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الْمَنْصُوبِ. | ٧ 7 |
So when all the peoples heard the sounds of the horns, flutes, zithers, lyres, harps, and pipes, and all kinds of music, all the peoples, nations, and languages fell down and prostrated themselves to the golden statue that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
غَيْرَ أَنَّ بَعْضاً مِنْ رِجَالِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ تَقَدَّمُوا إِلَى الْمَلِكِ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ وَاشْتَكَوْا عَلَى الْيَهُودِ | ٨ 8 |
Now at this time certain Chaldeans came and brought accusations against the Jews.
قَائِلِينَ: «لِتَعِشْ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٩ 9 |
They said to Nebuchadnezzar the king, “King, live forever!
لَقَدْ أَصْدَرْتَ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ أَمْراً أَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ أَصْوَاتَ بُوقِ الْقَرْنِ وَالنَّايِ وَالْعُودِ وَالرَّبَابِ وَالْقِيثَارَةِ الْمُثَلَّثَةِ وَالْمِزْمَارِ، وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ الْمُوسِيقَى، يَنْحَنِي وَيَسْجُدُ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ. | ١٠ 10 |
You, king, have made a decree that every person who hears the sounds of the horns, flutes, zithers, lyres, harps, and pipes, and all kinds of music, must fall down and prostrate himself to the golden statue.
وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَأْبَى يُلْقَى فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ. | ١١ 11 |
Whoever does not fall down and worship must be thrown into a blazing furnace.
وَهَا هُنَا رِجَالٌ يَهُودٌ مِمَّنْ وَلَّيْتَهُمْ عَلَى أَعْمَالِ إِقْلِيمِ بَابِلَ، هُمْ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو لَمْ يَأْبَهُوا لَكَ، وَلَمْ يَعْبُدُوا آلِهَتَكَ، وَلَمْ يَسْجُدُوا لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتَهُ». | ١٢ 12 |
Now there are certain Jews whom you have appointed over the affairs of the province of Babylon; their names are Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. These men, king, pay no attention to you. They will not worship or serve your gods, or prostrate themselves before the golden statue you have set up.”
حِينَئِذٍ أَمَرَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ بِاحْتِدَامِ غَضَبٍ وَغَيْظٍ أَنْ يُؤْتَى بِشَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو فَأَحْضَرُوهُمْ أَمَامَ الْمَلِكِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then Nebuchadnezzar, filled with anger and rage, commanded that Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego be brought to him. So they brought these men before the king.
وَقَالَ لَهُمْ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ: «أَحَقّاً يَا شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو أَنَّكُمْ لَا تَعْبُدُونَ آلِهَتِي وَلا تَسْجُدُونَ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتُهُ؟ | ١٤ 14 |
Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Have you made your minds up, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, that you will not worship my gods or prostrate yourselves to the golden statue that I have set up?
وَالآنَ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُسْتَعِدِّينَ لَدَى سَمَاعِكُمْ صَوْتَ الالاتِ الْمُوسِيقِيَّةِ الْمُخْتَلِفَةِ أَنْ تَنْحَنُوا وَتَسْجُدُوا لِلتِّمْثَالِ الَّذِي صَنَعْتُهُ، أَعْفُو عَنْكُمْ. وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَبَيْتُمُ السُّجُودَ، تُطْرَحُونَ فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. وَأَيُّ إِلَهٍ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُنْقِذَكُمْ عِنْدَئِذٍ مِنْ يَدَيَّ؟» | ١٥ 15 |
Now if you are ready—when you hear the sounds of the horns, flutes, zithers, lyres, harps, and pipes, and all kinds of music—to fall down and prostrate yourselves to the statue that I have made, all will be well. But if you do not worship, you will immediately be thrown into a blazing furnace. Who is the god who is able to rescue you out of my hands?”
فَأَجَابَهُ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو: «لا دَاعِيَ لأَنْ نُجِيبَكَ عَنْ هَذَا الشَّأْنِ | ١٦ 16 |
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered the king, “Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.
لأَنَّ إِلَهَنَا الَّذِي نَعْبُدُهُ قَادِرٌ أَنْ يُنَجِّيَنَا مِنْ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ، وَأَنْ يُنْقِذَنَا مِنْ يَدِكَ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ. | ١٧ 17 |
If there is an answer, it is that our God whom we serve is able to keep us safe from the blazing furnace, and he will rescue us out of your hand, king.
وَحَتَّى إِنْ لَمْ يُنْقِذْنَا، فَاعْلَمْ يَقِيناً أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ أَنَّنَا لَا نَعْبُدُ آلِهَتَكَ، وَلا نَسْجُدُ لِتِمْثَالِ الذَّهَبِ الَّذِي نَصَبْتَهُ». | ١٨ 18 |
But if not, let it be known to you, king, that we will not worship your gods, and we will not prostrate ourselves to the golden statue you set up.”
فَاسْتَشَاطَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ حَنَقاً وَاكْفَهَرَّ وَجْهُهُ غَضَباً عَلَى شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، وَأَمَرَ أَنْ يُضْرِمُوا الأَتُونَ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ عَمَّا كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْعَادَةُ. | ١٩ 19 |
Then Nebuchadnezzar was filled with rage; the look on his face changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He commanded that the furnace should be heated seven times hotter than it was normally heated.
وَطَلَبَ مِنْ بَعْضِ رِجَالِ جَيْشِهِ الشُّجْعَانِ أَنْ يُوْثِقُوا شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو وَيَطْرَحُوهُمْ فِي أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Then he commanded some very strong men in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and to throw them into the blazing furnace.
حِينَئِذٍ أُوْثِقَ الرِّجَالُ بِمَا عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ ثِيَابٍ وَسَرَاوِيلَ وَأَقْمِصَةٍ وَأَرْدِيَةٍ، وَطُرِحُوا فِي وَسَطِ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢١ 21 |
They were tied up still wearing their robes, tunics, turbans, and other clothing, and they were thrown into the blazing furnace.
وَإِذْ كَانَ أَمْرُ الْمَلِكِ صَارِماً وَالأَتُونُ قَدْ أُضْرِمَ أَشَدَّ إِضْرَامٍ، فَإِنَّ لَهِيبَ النَّارِ أَحْرَقَ الرِّجَالَ الَّذِينَ حَمَلُوا شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، وَطَرَحُوهُمْ فِي النَّارِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Because the king's command was strictly followed and the furnace was very hot, the flames killed the men who took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
فَسَقَطَ هَؤُلاءِ الرِّجَالُ الثَّلاثَةُ مُوْثَقِينَ وَسَطَ أَتُونِ النَّارِ الْمُتَّقِدَةِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
These three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell into the blazing furnace while they were tied up.
وَمَا لَبِثَتِ الْحَيْرَةُ أَنِ اعْتَرَتْ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ، فَهَبَّ مُسْرِعاً وَقَالَ لِمُشِيرِيهِ: «أَلَمْ نَطْرَحْ ثَلاثَةَ رِجَالٍ مُوْثَقِينَ فِي وَسَطِ النَّارِ؟» فَأَجَابُوا: «صَحِيحٌ أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ». | ٢٤ 24 |
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was amazed and stood up quickly. He asked his advisors, “Did we not throw three men tied up into the fire?” They replied to the king, “Certainly, king.”
فَقَالَ: «إِنِّي أَرَى أَرْبَعَةَ رِجَالٍ طَلِيقِينَ يَتَمَشَّوْنَ فِي وَسَطِ النَّارِ، لَمْ يَنَلْهُمْ أَذىً، وَمَنْظَرُ الرَّابِعِ شَبِيهٌ بِابْنِ الآلِهَةِ». | ٢٥ 25 |
He said, “But I see four men who are not tied up walking around in the fire, and they are not hurt. The brilliance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.”
ثُمَّ دَنَا نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ مِنْ بَابِ الأَتُونِ الْمُتَّقِدِ بِالنَّارِ وَهَتَفَ: «يَا شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو يَا عَبِيدَ اللهِ الْعَلِيِّ، اخْرُجُوا وَتَعَالَوْا». فَخَرَجَ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو مِنْ وَسَطِ النَّارِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Then Nebuchadnezzar came near the door of the blazing furnace and called out, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of God Most High, come out! Come here!” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the fire.
فَأَحَاطَ الأَقْطَابُ وَالْوُلاةُ وَالْحُكَّامُ وَعُظَمَاءُ الدَّوْلَةِ بِهِمْ، فَوَجَدُوا أَنَّ النَّارَ لَمْ تُؤْذِ أَجْسَامَهُمْ، وَلَمْ تَحْتَرِقْ شَعْرَةٌ مِنْ رُؤُوسِهِمْ، وَلَمْ تَشِطْ ثِيَابُهُمْ، وَلَمْ تَعْلَقْ بِهِمْ رَائِحَةُ النَّارِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
The provincial governors, regional governors, other governors, and the king's counselors who had gathered together saw these men. The fire had not hurt their bodies; the hair on their heads was not singed; their robes were not harmed; and there was no smell of fire on them.
فَقَالَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ: «تَبَارَكَ إِلَهُ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ مَلاكَهُ وَأَنْقَذَ عَبِيدَهُ الَّذِينَ اتَّكَلُوا عَلَيْهِ وَخَالَفُوا أَمْرَ الْمَلِكِ وَبَذَلُوا أَجْسَادَهُمْ كَيْ لا يَعْبُدُوا أَوْ يَسْجُدُوا لإِلَهٍ غَيْرِ إِلَهِهِمْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Nebuchadnezzar said, “Let us praise the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent his messenger and given his message to his servants. They trusted in him when they set aside my command, and they gave up their bodies rather than worship or prostrate themselves to any god except their God.
لِهَذَا قَدْ صَدَرَ مِنِّي أَمْرٌ أَنَّ أَيَّ شَعْبٍ أَوْ أُمَّةٍ أَوْ قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَيِّ لِسَانٍ يَذُمُّونَ إِلَهَ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، يُمَزَّقُونَ إِرْباً إِرْباً، وَتُصْبِحُ بُيُوتُهُمْ أَنْقَاضاً، إِذْ لَيْسَ هُنَاكَ إِلَهٌ آخَرُ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُنَجِّيَ مِثْلَهُ». | ٢٩ 29 |
Therefore I make a decree that any people, nation, or language that speaks anything against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego must be torn apart, and that their houses must be made into rubbish heaps because there is no other god who is able to save like this.”
ثُمَّ رَفَعَ الْمَلِكُ مِنْ شَأْنِ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُو فِي وِلايَةِ بَابِلَ. | ٣٠ 30 |
Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.
