< دانيال 5 >

وَأَقَامَ بَيْلْشَاصَّرُ الْمَلِكُ مَأْدُبَةً عَظِيمَةً لِنُبَلاءِ دَوْلَتِهِ الأَلْفِ، وَشَرِبَ خَمْراً أَمَامَهُمْ. ١ 1
Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.
وَفِيمَا كَانَ يَحْتَسِي الْخَمْرَ أَمَرَ بِإِحْضَارِ آنِيَةِ الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ الَّتِي اسْتَوْلَى عَلَيْهَا أَبُوهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ مِنْ هَيْكَلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، لِيَشْرَبَ بِها مَعَ نُبَلاءِ مَمْلَكَتِهِ وَزَوْجَاتِهِ وَمَحْظِيَّاتِهِ. ٢ 2
Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king and his lords, his consorts and his concubines, might drink therein.
فَأَحْضَرُوهَا وَشَرِبَ بِها الْمَلِكُ وَنُبَلاءُ مَمْلَكَتِهِ وَزَوْجَاتُهُ وَمَحْظِيَّاتُهُ ٣ 3
Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his lords, his consorts and his concubines, drank in them.
وَأَخَذُوا يُسَبِّحُونَ آلِهَةَ الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَالنُّحَاسِ وَالْحَدِيدِ وَالْخَشَبِ وَالْحَجَرِ. ٤ 4
They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
فَظَهَرَتْ أَصَابِعُ يَدِ إِنْسَانٍ وَخَطَّتْ بِإِزَاءِ الْمِصْبَاحِ عَلَى كِلْسِ جِدَارِ قَصْرِ الْمَلِكِ، وَالْمَلِكُ يَشْهَدُ الْيَدَ الْكَاتِبَةَ. ٥ 5
In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace; and the king saw the palm of the hand that wrote.
عِنْدَئِذٍ شَحُبَ وَجْهُ الْمَلِكِ وَأَفْزَعَتْهُ أَفْكَارُهُ وَاصْطَكَّتْ رُكْبَتَاهُ وَاعْتَرَاهُ الانْهِيَارُ، ٦ 6
Then the king's countenance was changed in him, and his thoughts affrighted him; and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.
فَزَعَقَ طَالِباً أَنْ يُحْضِرُوا السَّحَرَةَ وَالْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ وَالْمُنَجِّمِينَ، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَيُّ رَجُلٍ يَقْرَأُ هَذِهِ الْكِتَابَةَ وَيُفَسِّرُ لِي مُحْتَوَاهَا، يَرْتَدِي الأُرْجُوَانَ وَقِلادَةً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فِي عُنُقِهِ، وَيُصْبِحُ الرَّجُلَ الثَّالِثَ الْمُتَسَلِّطَ فِي الْمَمْلَكَةِ». ٧ 7
The king cried aloud to bring in the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon: 'Whosoever shall read this writing, and declare unto me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall rule as one of three in the kingdom.'
فَأَقْبَلَ حُكَمَاءُ الْمَلِكِ وَلَكِنَّهُمْ عَجَزُوا عَنْ قِرَاءَةِ الْكِتَابَةِ وَعَنْ إِطْلاعِ الْمَلِكِ عَلَى تَفْسِيرِهَا. ٨ 8
Then came in all the king's wise men: but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation.
فَدَبَّ الْفَزَعُ فِي الْمَلِكِ بَيْلْشَاصَّرَ، وَتَبَدَّلَتْ هَيْئَتُهُ وَاعْتَرَى عُظَمَاءَهُ الاضْطِرَابُ. ٩ 9
Then was king Belshazzar greatly affrighted, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were perplexed.
وَعَلَى أَثَرِ كَلامِ الْمَلِكِ وَنُبَلائِهِ، أَقْبَلَتِ الْمَلِكَةُ الأُمُّ إِلَى قَاعَةِ الْمَأْدُبَةِ وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ لِتَعِشْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. لَا تُرَوِّعْكَ أَفْكَارُكَ، وَلا يَشْحَبْ وَجْهُكَ، ١٠ 10
Now the queen by reason of the words of the king and his lords came into the banquet house; the queen spoke and said: 'O king, live for ever! let not thy thoughts affright thee, nor let thy countenance be changed;
لأَنَّ فِي مَمْلَكَتِكَ رَجُلاً فِيهِ رُوحُ الآلِهَةِ الْقُدُّوسِينَ، وَقَدْ تَمَيَّزَ فِي عَهْدِ أَبِيكَ بِاسْتِنَارَةٍ وَفَهْمٍ وَحِكْمَةٍ كَحِكْمَةِ الآلِهَةِ، فَعَيَّنَهُ أَبُوكَ الْمَلِكُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ رَئِيساً لِلْمَجُوسِ وَالسَّحَرَةِ وَالْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ وَالْمُنَجِّمِينَ. ١١ 11
there is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; and the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, I say, thy father, made him master of the magicians, enchanters, Chaldeans, and astrologers;
لأَنَّ دَانِيَالَ هَذَا الَّذِي دَعَاهُ الْمَلِكُ بَلْطَشَاصَّرَ، كَانَ يَتَحَلَّى بِرُوحٍ فَاضِلَةٍ وَمَعْرِفَةٍ وَفِطْنَةٍ، وَقُدْرَةٍ عَلَى تَفْسِيرِ الأَحْلامِ وَفَكِّ الأَلْغَازِ وَحَلِّ الْمُعْضِلاتِ. فَلْيُدْعَ الآنَ دَانِيَالُ لِيُطْلِعَكَ عَلَى تَفْسِيرِ الْكِتَابَةِ». ١٢ 12
forasmuch as a surpassing spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and declaring of riddles, and loosing of knots, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar. Now let Daniel be called, and he will declare the interpretation.'
حِينَئِذٍ اسْتُدْعِيَ دَانِيَالُ، فَمَثَلَ أَمَامَ الْمَلِكِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمَلِكُ: «هَلْ أَنْتَ دَانِيَالُ مِنَ الْمَسْبِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ أَحْضَرَهُمْ أَبِي الْمَلِكُ مِنْ أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا؟ ١٣ 13
Then was Daniel brought in before the king. The king spoke and said unto Daniel: 'Art thou Daniel, who is of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?
قَدْ سَمِعْتُ أَنَّ فِيكَ رُوحَ الآلِهَةِ وَأَنَّ فِيكَ اسْتِنَارَةً وَفِطْنَةً وَحِكْمَةً حَاذِقَةً. ١٤ 14
I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and surpassing wisdom is found in thee.
وَقَدْ سَبَقَ أَنْ أُحْضِرَ أَمَامِي الْحُكَمَاءُ وَالسَّحَرَةُ لِيَقْرَأُوا هَذِهِ الْكِتَابَةَ وَيُطْلِعُونِي عَلَى تَفْسِيرِهَا فَعَجَزُوا عَنْ ذَلِكَ. ١٥ 15
And now the wise men, the enchanters, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof; but they could not declare the interpretation of the thing.
وَأَنَا قَدْ سَمِعْتُ عَنْكَ أَنَّكَ قَادِرٌ عَلَى تَفْسِيرِ الأَحْلامِ وَحَلِّ الْمُعْضِلاتِ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ الآنَ أَنْ تَقْرَأَ الْكِتَابَةَ وَتُطْلِعَنِي عَلَى تَفْسِيرِهَا، تَرْتَدِي الأُرْجُوَانَ وَتَتَقَلَّدُ طَوْقَ ذَهَبٍ فِي عُنُقِكَ، وَتُصْبِحُ الرَّجُلَ الثَّالِثَ الْمُتَسَلِّطَ فِي الْمَمْلَكَةِ». ١٦ 16
But I have heard of thee, that thou canst give interpretations, and loose knots; now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt rule as one of three in the kingdom.'
فَأَجَابَ دَانِيَالُ الْمَلِكَ: «لِتَبْقَ عَطَايَاكَ لَكَ، وَجُدْ بِهِبَاتِكَ عَلَى غَيْرِي، وَلَكِنِّي أَقْرَأُ الْكِتَابَةَ لِلْمَلِكِ وَأُطْلِعُهُ عَلَى تَفْسِيرِهَا. ١٧ 17
Then Daniel answered and said before the king: 'Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; nevertheless I will read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
أَيُّهَا الْمَلِكُ قَدْ وَهَبَ اللهُ الْعَلِيُّ أَبَاكَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ مُلْكاً وَعَظَمَةً وَجَلالاً وَبَهَاءً. ١٨ 18
O thou king, God Most High gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty;
وَلِفَرْطِ عَظَمَتِهِ الَّتِي أَنْعَمَ اللهُ بِها عَلَيْهِ، كَانَتْ جَمِيعُ الأُمَمِ وَالشُّعُوبِ مِنْ كُلِّ لِسَانٍ تَرْتَعِدُ أَمَامَهُ وَتَفْزَعُ، فَكَانَ يَقْتُلُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ، وَيَسْتَحْيِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ، يَرْفَعُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَضَعُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ. ١٩ 19
and because of the greatness that He gave him, all the peoples, nations, and languages trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew, and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he raised up, and whom he would he put down.
وَعِنْدَمَا شَمَخَ قَلْبُهُ وَقَسَتْ رُوحُهُ تَعَنُّتاً، عُزِلَ عَنْ عَرْشِ مُلْكِهِ وَجُرِّدَ مِنْ جَلالِهِ، ٢٠ 20
But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened that he dealt proudly, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and his glory was taken from him;
وَطُرِدَ مِنْ بَيْنِ النَّاسِ، وَمَاثَلَ عَقْلُهُ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ، وَصَارَ مَأْوَاهُ مَعَ الْحَمِيرِ الْوَحْشِيَّةِ، فَأَطْعَمُوهُ الْعُشْبَ كَالثِّيرَانِ، وَابْتَلَّ جِسْمُهُ بِنَدَى السَّمَاءِ، حَتَّى عَلِمَ أَنَّ اللهَ الْعَلِيَّ هُوَ الْمُتَسَلِّطُ فِي مَمْلَكَةِ النَّاسِ، وَأَنَّهُ يُوَلِّي عَلَيْهَا مَنْ يَشَاءُ. ٢١ 21
and he was driven from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses; he was fed with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; until he knew that God Most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and that He setteth up over it whomsoever He will.
وَأَنْتَ يَا بَيلْشَاصَّرُ ابْنُهُ لَمْ يَتَوَاضَعْ قَلْبُكَ، مَعَ عِلْمِكَ بِكُلِّ هَذَا، ٢٢ 22
And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thy heart, though thou knewest all this;
بَلْ تَغَطْرَسْتَ عَلَى رَبِّ السَّمَاءِ، فَأَحْضَرُوا أَمَامَكَ آنِيَةَ هَيْكَلِهِ لِتَشْرَبَ بِها الْخَمْرَ، أَنْتَ وَنُبَلَاءُ دَوْلَتِكَ وَزَوْجَاتُكَ وَمَحْظِيَّاتُكَ، وَسَبَّحْتَ آلِهَةَ الْفِضَّةِ وَالذَّهَبِ وَالنُّحَاسِ وَالْحَدِيدِ وَالْخَشَبِ وَالْحَجَرِ الَّتِي لَا تُبْصِرُ وَلا تَسْمَعُ وَلا تُدْرِكُ، أَمَّا اللهُ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ رُوحُكَ وَلَهُ كُلُّ طُرُقِكَ، فَلَمْ تُمَجِّدْهُ. ٢٣ 23
but hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of His house before thee, and thou and thy lords, thy consorts and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know; and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified;
عِنْدَئِذٍ، أَرْسَلَ مِنْ حَضْرَتِهِ هَذِهِ الْيَدَ فَخَطَّتْ هَذِهِ الْكِتَابَةَ. ٢٤ 24
then was the palm of the hand sent from before Him, and this writing was inscribed.
وَهِيَ: مَنَا مَنَا تَقَيْلُ وَفَرْسِينُ ٢٥ 25
And this is the writing that was inscribed: MENE MENE, TEKEL UPHARSIN.
وَتَفْسِيرُهَا مَنَا: أَحْصَى اللهُ أَيَّامَ مُلْكِكَ وَأَنْهَاهُ. ٢٦ 26
This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE, God hath numbered thy kingdom, and brought it to an end.
تَقَيْلُ: وُزِنْتَ بِالْمَوَازِينِ فَوُجِدْتَ نَاقِصاً. ٢٧ 27
TEKEL, Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
فَرْسِ: شُطِرَتْ مَمْلَكَتُكَ وَأُعْطِيَتْ لِمَادِي وَفَارِسَ». ٢٨ 28
PERES, thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.'
حِينَئِذٍ أَمَرَ بَيلْشَاصَّرُ أَنْ يَخْلَعُوا عَلَى دَانِيَالَ الأُرْجُوَانَ وَيُطَوِّقُوا عُنُقَهُ بِقِلَادَةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ وَيُذِيعُوا فِي كُلِّ أَرْجَاءِ الْبِلَادِ أَنَّهُ أَصْبَحَ الْمُتَسَلِّطَ الثَّالِثَ فِي الْمَمْلَكَةِ. ٢٩ 29
Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him, that he should rule as one of three in the kingdom.
فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ قُتِلَ بَيلْشَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، ٣٠ 30
In that night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was slain.
وَاسْتَوْلَى دَارِيُّوسُ الْمَادِيُّ عَلَى الْمَمْلَكَةِ وَهُوَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَالسِّتِّينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ. ٣١ 31
And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.
