< دانيال 1 >
فِي السَّنَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ مِنْ حُكْمِ يَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، زَحَفَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ وَحَاصَرَهَا. | ١ 1 |
IN THE third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.
وَأَسْلَمَ الرَّبُّ إِلَيْهِ يَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا مَعَ بَعْضِ آنِيَةِ هَيْكَلِ اللهِ، فَحَمَلَهَا مَعَهُ إِلَى أَرْضِ بَابِلَ وَاحْتَفَظَ بِالآنِيَةِ فِي خِزَانَةِ مَعْبَدِ إِلَهِهِ. | ٢ 2 |
And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the house of God; and he carried them into the land of Shinar to the house of his god, and the vessels he brought into the treasure-house of his god.
ثُمَّ أَمَرَ الْمَلِكُ أَشْفَنَزَ رَئِيسَ خِصْيَانِهِ أَنْ يُحْضِرَ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، مِنَ السُّلالَةِ الْمَلَكِيَّةِ وَمِنَ الشُّرَفَاءِ، | ٣ 3 |
And the king spoke unto Ashpenaz his chief officer, that he should bring in certain of the children of Israel, and of the seed royal, and of the nobles,
فِتْيَاناً كَامِلِي الْخِلْقَةِ، ذَوِي جَمَالٍ، مَاهِرِينَ فِي كُلِّ صَنْعَةٍ، يَتَحَلَّوْنَ بِالْمَعْرِفَةِ وَمُتَبَحِّرِينَ فِي كُلِّ عِلْمٍ مِمَّنْ هُمْ أَهْلٌ لِلْمُثُولِ فِي قَصْرِ الْمَلِكِ، لِيَتَعَلَّمُوا كِتَابَةَ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ وَلُغَتَهُمْ. | ٤ 4 |
youths in whom was no blemish, but fair to look on, and skilful in all wisdom, and skilful in knowledge, and discerning in thought, and such as had ability to stand in the king's palace; and that he should teach them the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans.
وَعَيَّنَ الْمَلِكُ لَهُمْ مُخَصَّصَاتِ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ بِيَوْمِهِ مِنْ أَطَايِبِ مَأْكُولاتِ الْمَلِكِ وَمِنْ خَمْرِ شَرَابِهِ، وَأَوْصَى أَنْ يَقْضُوا ثَلاثَ سَنَوَاتٍ فِي التَّثَقُّفِ يَمْثُلُونَ فِي نِهَايَتِهَا فِي حَضْرَةِ الْمَلِكِ. | ٥ 5 |
And the king appointed for them a daily portion of the king's food, and of the wine which he drank, and that they should be nourished three years; that at the end thereof they might stand before the king.
وَكَانَ مِنْ جُمْلَةِ الْمُنْتَخَبِينَ مِنْ بَنِي يَهُوذَا أَرْبَعَةٌ هُمْ: دَانِيَالُ وَحَنَنْيَا وَمِيشَائِيلُ وَعَزَرْيَا، | ٦ 6 |
Now among these were, of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.
فَأَطْلَقَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَئِيسُ الْخِصْيَانِ أَسْمَاءَ كَلْدَانِيَّةً، فَدَعَا دَانِيَالَ بَلْطَشَاصَّرَ، وَحَنَنْيَا شَدْرَخَ، وَمِيشَائِيلَ مِيشَخَ، وَعَزَرْيَا عَبْدَنَغُوَ. | ٧ 7 |
And the chief of the officers gave names unto them: unto Daniel he gave the name of Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abed-nego.
أَمَّا دَانِيَالُ فَقَدْ عَزَمَ فِي نَفْسِهِ أَنْ لَا يَتَنَجَّسَ بِأَطَايِبِ مَأْكُولاتِ الْمَلِكِ وَلا بِخَمْرِ شَرَابِهِ، وَطَلَبَ مِنْ رَئِيسِ الْخِصْيَانِ أَنْ يَعْفِيَهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ. | ٨ 8 |
But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the king's food, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the chief of the officers that he might not defile himself.
فَأَعْطَى اللهُ دَانِيَالَ حُظْوَةً وَرَحْمَةً لَدَى رَئِيسِ الْخِصْيَانِ، | ٩ 9 |
And God granted Daniel mercy and compassion in the sight of the chief of the officers.
وَلَكِنَّهُ قَالَ لِدَانِيَالَ: «إِنَّنِي أَخْشَى سَيِّدِي الْمَلِكَ الَّذِي عَيَّنَ مُخَصَّصَاتِ طَعَامِكُمْ وَشَرَابِكُمْ. فَإِذَا رَأَى وُجُوهَكُمْ أَكْثَرَ هُزَالاً مِنْ سَائِرِ رِفَاقِكُمْ فَإِنَّ الْمَلِكَ يَأْمُرُ بِقَطْعِ رَأْسِي». | ١٠ 10 |
And the chief of the officers said unto Daniel: 'I fear my lord the king, who hath appointed your food and your drink; for why should he see your faces sad in comparison with the youths that are of your own age? so would ye endanger my head with the king.'
فَقَالَ دَانِيَالُ لِلْمُشْرِفِ الَّذِي عَهِدَ إِلَيْهِ رَئِيسُ الْخِصْيَانِ بِدَانِيَالَ وَحَنَنْيَا وَمِيشَائِيلَ وَعَزَرْيَا: | ١١ 11 |
Then said Daniel to the steward, whom the chief of the officers had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:
«جَرِّبْ عَبِيدَكَ عَشَرَةَ أَيَّامٍ فَقَطْ، وَلا تُعْطِنَا سِوَى خُضْرَوَاتٍ وَمَاءٍ لِنَأْكُلَ وَنَشْرَبَ، | ١٢ 12 |
'Try thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us pulse to eat, and water to drink.
ثُمَّ اسْتَعْرِضْنَا وَقَارِنْ بَيْنَ مَنَاظِرِنَا وَمَنَاظِرِ سَائِرِ رِفَاقِنَا الَّذِينَ يَتَنَاوَلُونَ مِنْ طَعَامِ الْمَلِكِ، ثُمَّ تَصَرَّفْ مَعَ عَبِيدِكَ بِمُقْتَضَى مَا تَشْهَدُهُ». | ١٣ 13 |
Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the countenance of the youths that eat of the king's food; and as thou seest, deal with thy servants.'
فَاسْتَجَابَ لِطِلْبَتِهِمْ وَجَرَّبَهُمْ عَشَرَةَ أَيَّامٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
So he hearkened unto them in this matter, and tried them ten days.
وَبَعْدَ عَشَرَةِ أَيَّامٍ بَدَتْ مَظَاهِرُهُمْ أَكْثَرَ عَافِيَةً وَأَوْفَرَ سِمَناً مِنْ جَمِيعِ الْفِتْيَانِ الَّذِينَ يَتَنَاوَلُونَ مِنْ طَعَامِ الْمَلِكِ | ١٥ 15 |
And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer, and they were fatter in flesh, than all the youths that did eat of the king's food.
فَصَارَ الْمُشْرِفُ يَسْتَبْدِلُ مُخَصَّصَاتِ طَعَامِهِمْ وَخَمْرِ شَرَابِهِمْ بِالْخُضْرَوَاتِ. | ١٦ 16 |
So the steward took away their food, and the wine that they should drink, and gave them pulse.
وَوَهَبَ اللهُ أُولَئِكَ الْفِتْيَانَ الأَرْبَعَةَ مَعْرِفَةً وَعَقْلاً فِي كُلِّ ضُرُوبِ الْكِتَابَةِ وَالْعِلْمِ. وَكَانَ دَانِيَالُ فَطِناً فِي تَفْسِيرِ جَمِيعِ الرُّؤَى وَالأَحْلامِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Now as for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
وَحِينَ أَزِفَ وَقْتُ مُثُولِهِمْ كَأَمْرِ الْمَلِكِ، أَحْضَرَهُمْ رَئِيسُ الْخِصْيَانِ أَمَامَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ، | ١٨ 18 |
And at the end of the days which the king had appointed for bringing them in, the chief of the officers brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.
فَتَحَدَّثَ إِلَيْهِمِ الْمَلِكُ، فَلَمْ يَجِدْ بَيْنَهُمْ جَمِيعاً مَنْ هُوَ مِثْلُ دَانِيَالَ وَحَنَنْيَا وَمِيشَائِيلَ وَعَزَرْيَا، فَاخْتَارَهُمْ لِلْمُثُولِ فِي حَضْرَتِهِ. | ١٩ 19 |
And the king spoke with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah; therefore stood they before the king.
وَحِينَ شَرَعَ الْمَلِكُ فِي مُبَاحَثَتِهِمْ فِي شُؤُونِ الْعُلُومِ وَالْمَعَارِفِ وَجَدَهُمْ يَفُوقُونَ بِعَشَرَةِ أَضْعَافٍ جَمِيعَ السَّحَرَةِ وَالْمَجُوسِ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي مَمْلَكَتِهِ كُلِّهَا. | ٢٠ 20 |
And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters that were in all his realm.
وَظَلَّ دَانِيَالُ هُنَاكَ إِلَى السَّنَةِ الأُولَى لِوِلايَةِ كُورَشَ الْمَلِكِ. | ٢١ 21 |
And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.
