< دانيال 9 >

فِي السَّنَةِ الأُولَى مِنْ حُكْمِ دَارِيُّوسَ بْنِ أَحْشَوِيرُوشَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ الْمَادِيِّينَ، الَّذِي اعْتَلَى عَرْشَ مَمْلَكَةِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ. ١ 1
It was the first year of Darius the Mede, son of Ahasuerus, after he had become king of the Babylonians.
فِي السَّنَةِ الأُولَى مِنْ مُلْكِهِ، أَدْرَكْتُ أَنَا دَانِيَالَ، مِنْ دِرَاسَةِ الأَسْفَارِ الَّتِي دُوِّنَ فِيهَا وَحْيُ الرَّبِّ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا، أَنَّ عَدَدَ السَّنَوَاتِ الَّتِي قُضِيَ بِها عَلَى خَرَابِ أُورُشَلِيمَ هُوَ سَبْعُونَ سَنَةً. ٢ 2
During the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, understood from the Scriptures as given to the prophet Jeremiah that the time of seventy years for Jerusalem to lie desolate would soon be fulfilled.
فَاتَّجَهْتُ بِنَفْسِي إِلَى السَّيِّدِ الرَّبِّ، أَبْتَهِلُ إِلَيهِ بِالْصَّلاةِ وَالتَّضَرُّعَاتِ وَالصَّوْمِ وَارْتِدَاءِ الْمَسْحِ وَالتَّعَفُّرِ بِالرَّمَادِ. ٣ 3
So I turned to the Lord God in prayer. I fasted and wore sackcloth and ashes, and I pleaded with him in prayer to act.
وَصَلَّيْتُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِي وَاعْتَرَفْتُ قَائِلاً: «أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ الْعَظِيمُ الْمَهُوبُ، حَافِظُ الْعَهْدِ وَالرَّحْمَةِ لِمُحِبِّيهِ وَعَامِلِي وَصَايَاهُ. ٤ 4
I prayed to the Lord my God, and confessed, saying, “Lord, you are a great and awesome God! You always keep your promises and show your trustworthy love to those who love you and keep your commandments.
إِنَّنَا أَخْطَأْنَا وَأَثِمْنَا وَارْتَكَبْنَا الشَّرَّ، وَتَمَرَّدْنَا وَانْحَرَفْنَا عَنْ وَصَايَاكَ وَأَحْكَامِكَ. ٥ 5
But we have sinned, we have done wrong. We have acted wickedly, we have rebelled against you. We have turned away from your commandments and your laws.
وَلَمْ نَسْمَعْ لِعَبِيدِكَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ الَّذِينَ بِاسْمِكَ أَنْذَرُوا مُلُوكَنَا وَرُؤَسَاءَنَا وَآبَاءَنَا وَجَمِيعَ شَعْبِ الأَرْضِ. ٦ 6
We have not paid attention to your servants the prophets who spoke in your name to our kings and leaders and forefathers, and to everybody in the country.
لَكَ أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الْبِرُّ، وَلَنَا الْخِزْيُ، كَمَا هُوَ حَادِثٌ الْيَوْمَ لِرِجَالِ يَهُوذَا وَلأَهْلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَلِسَائِرِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الْقَرِيبِينَ وَالْبَعِيدِينَ، الْمُشَتَّتِينَ فِي كُلِّ الْبُلْدَانِ الَّتِي أَجْلَيْتَهُمْ إِلَيْهَا عِقَاباً لَهُمْ عَلَى مَا اقْتَرَفُوهُ مِنْ خِيَانَةٍ فِي حَقِّكَ. ٧ 7
Lord, you always do what is right, but we continue to be ashamed to this very day—we the people of Judah, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and all Israel, those nearby and those far away, those of every country where you have driven them because of their unfaithfulness to you.
فَلَنَا أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الْخِزْيُ، نَحْنُ وَمُلُوكِنَا وَرُؤَسَائِنَا وَآبَائِنَا، لأَنَّنَا أَخْطَأْنَا إِلَيْكَ. ٨ 8
Public shame is ours Lord, and on our kings and princes and forefathers, because we have sinned against you.
إِنَّمَا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا الرَّحْمَةُ وَالْمَغْفِرَةُ لأَنَّنَا عَصَيْنَاكَ. ٩ 9
Yet you, the Lord our God, are compassionate and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against you.
وَلَمْ نُطِعْ صَوْتَ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا لِنَسْلُكَ فِي شَرَائِعِهِ الَّتِي أَعْلَنَهَا لَنَا عَلَى لِسَانِ عَبِيدِهِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ. ١٠ 10
We have not obeyed what you, the Lord God, have told us. We have not followed your law that you gave us through your servants the prophets.
قَدْ تَعَدَّى كُلُّ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى شَرِيعَتِكَ، وَانْحَرَفُوا فَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا صَوْتَكَ، فَسَكَبْتَ عَلَيْنَا اللَّعْنَةَ وَمَا أَقْسَمْتَ أَنْ تُوْقِعَهُ بِنَا، كَمَا نَصَّتْ عَلَيْهِ شَرِيعَةُ مُوسَى عَبْدِ اللهِ، لأَنَّنَا أَخْطَأْنَا إِلَيْكَ. ١١ 11
The whole of Israel has broken your law and turned away from you, not listening to what you had to say. That's why the condemnation that comes from our broken promise has been poured out on us—because of our sin, as made clear in the Law of Moses, the servant of the Lord.
وَقَدْ نَفَّذْتَ قَضَاءَكَ الَّذِي قَضَيْتَ بِهِ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى قُضَاتِنَا الَّذِينَ تَوَلَّوْا أَمْرَنَا، جَالِباً عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ شَرّاً عَظِيماً لَمْ يَحْدُثْ لَهُ مَثِيلٌ تَحْتَ السَّمَاءِ. ١٢ 12
You have carried out what you warned us about, against us and against our rulers—such a terrible punishment brought upon Jerusalem, the worst that has ever happened in the whole world.
وَكَمَا وَرَدَ فِي شَرِيعَةِ مُوسَى، أَصَابَنَا جَمِيعُ هَذَا الْبَلاءِ، وَلَمْ نَسْتَعْطِفْ وَجْهَكَ أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا تَائِبِينَ عَنْ آثَامِنَا وَمُتَنَبِّهِينَ لِحَقِّكَ. ١٣ 13
Just as the Law of Moses said, all this punishment has fallen on us, but we still have not asked you, the Lord our God, to be favorable to us, turning away from our sins and paying attention to your truth.
فَأَضْمَرْتَ لَنَا الْعِقَابَ وَأَوْقَعْتَهُ بِنَا لأَنَّكَ إِلَهُنَا الْبَارُّ فِي كُلِّ أَعْمَالِكَ الَّتِي صَنَعْتَهَا لأَنَّنَا لَمْ نَسْتَمِعْ إِلَيْكَ. ١٤ 14
You were ready to punish us, and you were right to do everything you have done, for we didn't listen to you.
وَالآنَ أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ إِلَهُنَا، يَا مَنْ أَخْرَجْتَ شَعْبَكَ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ بِقُوَّةٍ مُقْتَدِرَةٍ، وَأَشْهَرْتَ اسْمَكَ كَمَا هُوَ حَادِثٌ الْيَوْمَ، قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا وَارْتَكَبْنَا الشَّرَّ. ١٥ 15
You, our Lord God, by your great power brought us out of Egypt, making a name for yourself that lasts even until now. But we have sinned, we have done wicked things.
فَاصْرِفْ يَا سَيِّدُ، حَسَبَ رَحْمَتِكَ، سَخَطَكَ وَغَضَبَكَ عَنْ مَدِينَتِكَ أُورُشَلِيمَ جَبَلِ قُدْسِكَ إِذْ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ خَطَايَانَا وَآثَامِ آبَائِنَا أَصْبَحَتْ أُورُشَلِيمُ مَثَارَ عَارٍ لَنَا عِنْدَ جَمِيعِ الْمُحِيطِينَ بِنَا. ١٦ 16
So Lord, because you are so good, please turn away from your anger and fury against Jerusalem, your holy mountain. Because of our sins and those of our forefathers, Jerusalem and your people are mocked by all our neighbors.
فَأَنْصِتِ الآنَ يَا إِلَهَنَا إِلَى صَلاةِ عَبْدِكَ وَابْتِهَالاتِهِ، وَأَضِئْ بِوَجْهِكَ عَلَى هَيْكَلِكَ الْمُتَهَدِّمِ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَاتِكَ. ١٧ 17
Now, our Lord, please listen to the prayer and pleading of your servant, and for your own sake look kindly on your abandoned sanctuary.
أَرْهِفْ أُذُنَكَ يَا إِلَهِي وَاسْتَمِعْ، وَافْتَحْ عَيْنَيْكَ وَشَاهِدْ خَرَائِبَنَا وَالْمَدِينَةَ الَّتِي دُعِيَ اسْمُكَ عَلَيْهَا، فَإِنَّنَا لَا مِنْ أَجْلِ بِرٍّ فِينَا نَرْفَعُ تَضَرُّعَاتِنَا إِلَيْكَ، بَلْ بِفَضْلِ مَرَاحِمِكَ الْعَظِيمَةِ. ١٨ 18
Please listen carefully and open your eyes and see the terrible state we are in, and the city that bears your name. We're not making these requests to you for this because of our goodness, but because of your great mercy.
فَاسْتَمِعْ أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ وَاغْفِرْ. أَصْغِ أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ وَتَصَرَّفْ وَلا تُبْطِئ مِنْ أَجْلِ نَفْسِكَ يَا إِلَهِي، لأَنَّ اسْمَكَ دُعِيَ عَلَى مَدِينَتِكَ وَعَلَى شَعْبِكَ». ١٩ 19
Lord, please listen! Lord, please forgive! Please pay attention and do something! For your own sake, my God, don't delay, for your city and your people are identified by your name.”
وَبَيْنَمَا كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي وَأَعْتَرِفُ بِخَطِيئَتِي وَخَطِيئَةِ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَرْفَعُ تَضَرُّعَاتِي أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِي مِنْ أَجْلِ جَبَلِ قُدْسِ إِلَهِي، ٢٠ 20
I continued speaking, praying and confessing my sins and those of my people Israel, pleading before the Lord my God on behalf of Jerusalem, his holy mountain.
إِذَا بِالْمَلاكِ جِبْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي عَايَنْتُهُ فِي الرُّؤْيَا فِي الْبَدْءِ، قَدْ طَارَ إِلَيَّ مُسْرِعاً وَلَمَسَنِي، فِي مَوْعِدِ تَقْدِمَةِ الْمَسَاءِ. ٢١ 21
While I was still praying, Gabriel, whom I'd seen previously when I'd had the vision, came flying rapidly towards me at the time of the evening sacrifice.
وَأَفْهَمَنِي قَائِلاً: «يَا دَانِيَالُ قَدْ جِئْتُ لأُعَلِّمَكَ الْفَهْمَ. ٢٢ 22
He gave me the following explanation, saying, “Daniel, I've come to give you insight and understanding.
فَمُنْذُ أَنْ شَرَعْتَ فِي تَضَرُّعَاتِكَ صَدَرَ إِلَيَّ الأَمْرُ لأَجِيءَ إِلَيْكَ وَأُطْلِعَكَ عَلَى مَا تَبْغِي، لأَنَّكَ مَحْبُوبٌ جِدّاً، لِهَذَا تَأَمَّلْ مَا أَقُولُ وَافْهَمِ الرُّؤْيَا. ٢٣ 23
As soon as you started praying, the answer was given, and I have come to explain it to you because God loves you very much. So please listen to the explanation and understand the meaning of the vision.
قَدْ صَدَرَ الْقَضَاءُ أَنْ يَمْضِيَ سَبْعُونَ أُسْبُوعاً عَلَى شَعْبِكَ وَعَلَى مَدِينَةِ قُدْسِكَ، لِلانْتِهَاءِ مِنَ الْمَعْصِيَةِ وَالْقَضَاءِ عَلَى الْخَطِيئَةِ، وَلِلتَّكْفِيرِ عَنِ الإِثْمِ، وَلإِشَاعَةِ الْبِرِّ الأَبَدِيِّ وَخَتْمِ الرُّؤْيَا وَالنُّبُوءَةِ وَلِمَسْحِ قُدُّوسِ الْقُدُّوسِينَ. ٢٤ 24
Seventy weeks has been allotted to your people and your holy city to deal with the rebellion, to put an end to sin, to forgive wrongdoing, to bring in everlasting goodness, to confirm the vision and the prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy Place.
لِهَذَا فَاعْلَمْ وَافْهَمْ أَنَّ الْحِقْبَةَ الْمُمْتَدَّةَ مُنْذُ صُدُورِ الأَمْرِ بِإِعَادَةِ بِنَاءِ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى مَجِيءِ الْمَسِيحِ، سَبْعَةُ أَسَابِيعَ، ثُمَّ اثْنَانِ وَسِتُّونَ أُسْبُوعاً يُبْنَى فِي غُضُونِهَا سُوقٌ وَخَلِيجٌ. إِنَّمَا تَكُونُ تِلْكَ أَزْمِنَةَ ضِيقٍ. ٢٥ 25
You need to know and understand that from the time the command is given to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, until the Messiah, seven weeks plus sixty-two weeks will elapse. It will be built with streets and defenses, in spite of the difficult times.
وَبَعْدَ اثْنَيْنِ وَسِتِّينَ أُسْبُوعاً يُقْتَلُ الْمَسِيحُ، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ مِنْ أَجْلِ نَفْسِهِ، وَيُدَمِّرُ شَعْبُ رَئِيسٍ آتٍ الْمَدِينَةَ وَالْقُدْسَ، وَتُقْبِلُ آخِرَتُهَا كَطُوفَانٍ، وَتَسْتَمِرُّ الْحَرْبُ حَتَّى النِّهَايَةِ، وَيَعُمُّ الْخَرَابُ الْمَقْضِيُّ بِهِ. ٢٦ 26
After sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be put to death, and will be brought to nothing. A ruler will come to power whose army will destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end will come like a flood. War and devastation will continue until that period of time is completed.
وَيُبْرِمُ عَهْداً ثَابِتاً مَعَ كَثِيرِينَ لِمُدَّةِ أُسْبُوعٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَلَكِنَّهُ فِي وَسَطِ الأُسْبُوعِ يُبْطِلُ الذَّبِيحَةَ وَالتَّقْدِمَةَ، وَيُقِيمُ عَلَى جَنَاحِ الْهَيْكَلِ رَجَاسَةَ الْخَرَابِ، إِلَى أَنْ يَتِمَّ الْقَضَاءُ، فَيَنْصَبُّ الْعِقَابُ عَلَى الْمُخَرِّبِ». ٢٧ 27
He will confirm the agreement with many people for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put an end to sacrifices and offerings. The idolatry that causes devastation will be supported until the end when the same fate is poured out on the one who devastates.”
