تَثنِيَة 30

١ 1 وَعِنْدَمَا تَحِلُّ بِكُمْ هَذِهِ الْبَرَكَاتُ وَاللَّعْنَاتُ كُلُّهَا الَّتِي وَضَعْتُهَا أَمَامَكُمْ، وَرَدَّدْتُمُوهَا فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ حَيْثُ شَتَّتَكُمُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ،

And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither Yhwh thy God hath driven thee,

٢ 2 وَرَجَعْتُمْ إِلَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَبَنُوكُمْ، وَسَمِعْتُمْ لِصَوْتِهِ مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِكُمْ وَنُفُوسِكُمْ بِحَسَبِ كُلِّ مَا أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ الْيَوْمَ،

And shalt return unto Yhwh thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thy soul;

٣ 3 فَإِنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ يَرُدُّ سَبْيَكُمْ وَيَرْحَمُكُمْ، وَيَلُّمُ شَتَاتَكُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ جَمِيعِ الشُّعُوبِ الَّذِينَ نَفَاكُمُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ.

That then Yhwh thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither Yhwh thy God hath scattered thee.

٤ 4 فَإِنْ كَانَ قَدْ بَدَّدَكُمْ إِلَى أَقْصَى السَّمَاوَاتِ فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ يَجْمَعُكُمْ وَيَرْجِعُ بِكُمْ،

If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will Yhwh thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:

٥ 5 وَيُعِيدُكُمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَرِثَهَا آبَاؤُكُمْ فَتَمْتَلِكُونَهَا، وَيُحْسِنُ إِلَيْكُمْ وَيُكَثِّرُكُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ آبَائِكُمْ.

And Yhwh thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.

٦ 6 وَيُطَهِّرُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ قُلُوبَكُمْ وَقُلُوبَ نَسْلِكُمْ لِتُحِبُّوا الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِكُمْ وَمِنْ كُلِّ نُفُوسِكُمْ لِتَحْيَوْا مُطْمَئِنِّينَ

And Yhwh thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Yhwh thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

٧ 7 وَيُحَوِّلُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ كُلَّ هَذِهِ اللَّعْنَاتِ لِتَنْصَبَّ عَلَى أَعْدَائِكُمْ وَعَلَى مُبْغِضِيكُمُ الَّذِينَ طَرَدُوكُمْ،

And Yhwh thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, which persecuted thee.

٨ 8 وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَتُطِيعُونَ صَوْتَ الرَّبِّ مِنْ جَدِيدٍ وَتَعْمَلُونَ بِجَمِيعِ وَصَايَاهُ الَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِها الآنَ.

And thou shalt return and obey the voice of Yhwh, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.

٩ 9 فَيُفِيضُ الرَّبُّ عَلَيْكُمْ خَيْراً فِي كُلِّ مَا تُنْتِجُهُ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَيُكَثِّرُ ثَمَرَةَ أَحْشَائِكُمْ وَنِتَاجَ بَهَائِمِكُمْ، وَغَلّاتِ أَرْضِكُمْ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَعُودُ فَيَبْتَهِجُ بِكُمْ وَيَجْعَلُكُمْ مُزْدَهِرِينَ، كَمَا ابْتَهَجَ بِآبَائِكُمْ.

And Yhwh thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good: for Yhwh will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:

١٠ 10 هَذَا إِنْ سَمِعْتُمْ لِصَوْتِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ وَحَفِظْتُمْ وَصَايَاهُ وَفَرَائِضَهُ الْمُدَوَّنَةَ فِي كِتَابِ الشَّرِيعَةِ هَذَا، وَإِنْ رَجَعْتُمْ إِلَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِكُمْ وَمِنْ كُلِّ نُفُوسِكُمْ.

If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of Yhwh thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto Yhwh thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.

١١ 11 إِنَّ مَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ الْيَوْمَ مِنْ وَصَايَا لَيْسَتْ مُتَعَذِّرَةً عَلَيْكُمْ وَلا بَعِيدَةَ الْمَنَالِ،

For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.

١٢ 12 فَهِيَ لَيْسَتْ فِي السَّمَاءِ حَتَّى تَقُولُوا: مَنْ يَصْعَدُ لأَجْلِنَا إِلَى السَّمَاءِ لِيَأْتِيَ لَنَا بِها وَيَتْلُوَهَا عَلَيْنَا فَنَعْمَلَ بِها؟

It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?

١٣ 13 وَلا هِيَ فِي مَا وَرَاءَ الْبَحْرِ حَتَّى تَتَسَاءَلُوا: مَنْ يَعْبُرُ الْبَحْرَ لأَجْلِنَا وَيَأْتِينَا بِها وَيَتْلُوهَا عَلَيْنَا فَنَعْمَلَ بِها؟

Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?

١٤ 14 بَلِ الْكَلِمَةُ قَرِيبَةٌ مِنْكُمْ جِدّاً، فِي أَفْوَاهِكُمْ وَقُلُوبِكُمْ لِتَعْمَلُوا بِها.

But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.

١٥ 15 انْظُرُوا: هَا أَنَا قَدْ وَضَعْتُ أَمَامَكُمُ الْيَوْمَ الْحَيَاةَ وَالْخَيْرَ، وَالْمَوْتَ وَالشَّرَّ،

See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;

١٦ 16 إِذْ إِنَّنِي قَدْ أَوْصَيْتُكُمُ الْيَوْمَ أَنْ تُحِبُّوا الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ وَأَنْ تَسْلُكُوا فِي طُرُقِهِ وَتُطِيعُوا وَصَايَاهُ وَفَرَائِضَهُ وَأَحْكَامَهُ لِتَحْيَوْا وَتَنْمُوا، فَيُبَارِكَكُمُ الرَّبُّ فِي الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَنْتُمْ مَاضُونَ إِلَيْهَا لاِمْتِلاكِهَا.

In that I command thee this day to love Yhwh thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: And Yhwh thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

١٧ 17 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ تَحَوَّلَتْ قُلُوبُكُمْ وَلَمْ تُطِيعُوا، بَلْ غَوَيْتُمْ وَسَجَدْتُمْ لآلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى وَعَبَدْتُمُوهَا

But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;

١٨ 18 فَإِنِّي أُنْذِرُكُمُ الْيَوْمَ أَنَّكُمْ لَا مَحَالَةَ هَالِكُونَ. لَا تُطِيلُ الأَيَّامَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَنْتَ عَابِرٌ الأُرْدُنَّ لِتَدْخُلَهَا وَتَمْتَلِكَهَا.

I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.

١٩ 19 هَا أَنَا أُشْهِدُ عَلَيْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ السَّمَاءَ وَالأَرْضَ. قَدْ وَضَعْتُ أَمَامَكُمُ الْحَيَاةَ وَالْمَوْتَ، الْبَرَكَةَ وَاللَّعْنَةَ. فَاخْتَارُوا الْحَيَاةَ لِتَحْيَوْا أَنْتُمْ وَنَسْلُكُمْ،

I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:

٢٠ 20 إِذْ تُحِبُّونَ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ وَتُطِيعُونَ صَوْتَهُ وَتَتَمَسَّكُونَ بِهِ، لأَنَّهُ هُوَ حَيَاتُكُمْ، وَهُوَ الَّذِي يُطِيلُ أَيَّامَكُمْ لِتَسْتَوْطِنُوا الأَرْضَ الَّتِي حَلَفَ الرَّبُّ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهَا لِآبَائِكُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ.

That thou mayest love Yhwh thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which Yhwh sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
