تَثنِيَة 31
| وَمَضَى مُوسَى يَقُولُ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: | ١ 1 |
Moses [Drawn out] went and spoke these words to all Israel [God prevails].
| «أَنَا الْيَوْمَ قَدْ بَلَغْتُ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ مِئَةً وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً، وَصِرْتُ عَاجِزاً عَنْ قِيَادَتِكُمْ. وَقَدْ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِي: لَنْ تَعْبُرَ هَذَا الأُرْدُنَّ. | ٢ 2 |
He said to them, “I am one hundred twenty years old today. I can no more go out and come in. Adonai has said to me, ‘You shall not go over this Jordan [Descender].’
| وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ عَابِرٌ أَمَامَكُمْ، وَهُوَ يُبِيدُ تِلْكَ الأُمَمَ مِنْ قُدَّامِكُمْ فَتَرِثُونَهُمْ. وَسَيَكُونُ يَشُوعُ قَائِدَكُمْ كَمَا وَعَدَ الرَّبُّ. | ٣ 3 |
Adonai your God himself will go over before you. He will destroy these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess them. Joshua [Salvation Yah] will go over before you, as Adonai has spoken.
| سَيَصْنَعُ الرَّبُّ بِهِمْ كَمَا صَنَعَ بِسِيحُونَ وَعُوجَ مَلِكَيِ الأَمُورِيِّينَ وَبِأَرْضِهِمَا وَأَبَادَهُمَا. | ٤ 4 |
Adonai will do to them as he did to Sihon and to Og, the kings of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], and to their land; whom he destroyed.
| فَمَتَى أَخْضَعَهُمُ الرَّبُّ لَكُمْ فَافْعَلُوا بِهِمْ بِمُوْجِبِ جَمِيعِ الْوَصَايَا الَّتِي أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِها. | ٥ 5 |
Adonai will deliver them up before you, and you shall do to them according to all the mitzvot ·instructions· I have enjoined you.
| تَقَوَّوْا وَتَشَجَّعُوا. لَا تَخْشَوْهُمْ وَلا تَجْزَعُوا مِنْهُمْ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ سَائِرٌ مَعَكُمْ، لَا يُهْمِلُكُمْ وَلا يَتْرُكُكُمْ». | ٦ 6 |
Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid or scared of them; for Adonai your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you.”
| فَاسْتَدْعَى مُوسَى يَشُوعَ وَقَالَ لَهُ أَمَامَ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «تَقَوَّ وَتَشَجَّعْ، لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ مَاضٍ مَعَ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي حَلَفَ الرَّبُّ لِآبَائِهِمْ أَنْ يَهَبَهَا لَهُمْ، وَأَنْتَ تُوَزِّعُهَا عَلَيْهِمْ. | ٧ 7 |
Moses [Drawn out] called to Joshua [Salvation Yah], and said to him in the sight of all Israel [God prevails], “Be strong and courageous, for you shall go with this people into the land which Adonai has sworn to their fathers to give them; and you shall cause them to inherit it.
| هُوَذَا الرَّبُّ يَتَقَدَّمُكَ، هُوَ يَكُونُ مَعَكَ، لَا يُهْمِلُكَ وَلا يَتْرُكُكَ. لِذَلِكَ لَا تَخَفْ وَلا تَرْتَعِبْ». | ٨ 8 |
Adonai himself is who goes before you. He will be with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged.”
| وَكَتَبَ مُوسَى كَلِمَاتِ هَذِهِ التَّوْرَاةِ وَسَلَّمَهَا لِلْكَهَنَةِ بَنِي لاوِي حَامِلِي تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ الرَّبِّ وَإِلَى سَائِرِ شُيُوخِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٩ 9 |
Moses [Drawn out] wrote this Torah ·Teaching·, and delivered it to the priests the sons of Levi [United with], who bore the ark of Adonai’s covenant, and to all the elders of Israel [God prevails].
| وَأَمَرَهُمْ مُوسَى قَائِلاً: «فِي خِتَامِ السَّبْعِ السَّنَوَاتِ، فِي مِيعَادِ سَنَةِ الإِبْرَاءِ مِنَ الدُّيُونِ، فِي عِيدِ الْمَظَالِّ | ١٠ 10 |
Moses [Drawn out] enjoined them, saying, “At the end of every seven years, in the set time of the year of release, in the festival of Sukkot ·Booths·,
| عِنْدَمَا يَجْتَمِعُ جَمِيعُ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ لِلْعِبَادَةِ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ فِي الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ، تَتْلُونَ نُصُوصَ هَذِهِ التَّوْرَاةِ فِي مَسَامِعِهِمْ. | ١١ 11 |
when all Israel [God prevails] has come to appear before Adonai your God in the place which he will choose, you shall read this Torah ·Teaching· before all Israel [God prevails] in their hearing.
| اجْمَعُوا الشَّعْبَ رِجَالاً وَنِسَاءً وَأَطْفَالاً، وَالْغُرَبَاءَ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي مُدُنِكُمْ لِيَسْمَعُوا وَيَتَعَلَّمُوا تَقْوَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَيَحْرِصُوا عَلَى الْعَمَلِ بِجَمِيعِ نُصُوصِ هَذِهِ التَّوْرَاةِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Assemble the people, the men and the women and the little ones, and the foreigners who are within your gates, that they may sh'ma ·hear obey·, and that they may learn, and fear Adonai your God, and observe to do all the words of this Torah ·Teaching·;
| وَكَذَلِكَ لِيَسْمَعَ أَوْلادُهُمُ الشَّرِيعَةَ الَّتِي لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهَا، لِيَتَعَلَّمُوا تَقْوَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ طَوَالَ الأَيَّامِ الَّتِي يَعِيشُونَهَا عَلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَنْتُمْ عَابِرُونَ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ إِلَيْهَا لِتَرِثُوهَا». | ١٣ 13 |
and that their children, who have not known, may sh'ma ·hear obey·, and learn to fear Adonai your God, as long as you live in the land where you go over the Jordan [Descender] to possess it.”
| وَكَانَ الرَّبُّ قَدْ قَالَ لِمُوسَى: «هَا أَنْتَ قَدْ أَوْشَكْتَ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ، وَأَيَّامُ حَيَاتِكَ بَاتَتْ مَعْدُودَةً. فَادْعُ يَشُوعَ، وَقِفَا كِلاكُمَا عِنْدَ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ لِكَيْ أُوصِيَهُ». فَمَضَى مُوسَى وَيَشُوعُ وَمَثَلا عِنْدَ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Behold, your days approach that you must die. Call Joshua [Salvation Yah], and present yourselves in the Tent of Meeting, that I may enjoin him.” Moses [Drawn out] and Joshua [Salvation Yah] went, and presented themselves in the Tent of Meeting.
| فَتَجَلَّى الرَّبُّ فِي الْخَيْمَةِ، فِي سَحَابَةٍ. وَوَقَفَتِ السَّحَابَةُ عِنْدَ بَابِ الْخَيْمَةِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Adonai appeared in the Tent in a pillar of cloud, and the pillar of cloud stood over the Tent’s door.
| وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «مَا إِنْ تَمُوتُ وَتَلْحَقُ بِآبَائِكَ حَتَّى يُسْرِعَ هَذَا الشَّعْبُ وَيَفْجُرَ وَرَاءَ آلِهَةِ الْغُرَبَاءِ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي الأَرْضِ الَّتِي هُوَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا فِي وَسَطِهِمْ، وَيَتَخَلَّى عَنِّي وَيَنْكُثَ عَهْدِي الَّذِي أَبْرَمْتُهُ مَعَهُ، | ١٦ 16 |
Adonai said to Moses [Drawn out], “Behold, you shall sleep with your fathers. This people will rise up, and play the prostitute after the strange deities of the land, where they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties· which I have made with them.
| فَيَحْتَدِمُ غَضَبِي عَلَيْهِ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، وَأَنْبِذُهُ وَأَحْجُبُ وَجْهِي عَنْهُ، فَيَكُونُ فَرِيسَةً. وَتَلْحَقُ بِهِ شُرُورٌ كَثِيرَةٌ وَمَصَائِبُ، حَتَّى يَقُولَ: أَلَيْسَ لأَنَّ إِلَهِي قَدْ هَجَرَنِي، قَدْ أَصَابَتْنِي هَذِهِ الشُّرُورُ؟ | ١٧ 17 |
Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall come on them; so that they will say in that day, ‘Haven’t these evils come on us because our God is not among us?’
| وَأَحْجُبُ وَجْهِي عَنْهُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ جَمِيعِ مَا ارْتَكَبُوهُ مِنْ شُرُورٍ، إِذْ سَعَوْا وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى. | ١٨ 18 |
I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evil which they have done, in that they have turned to other deities.
| فَالآنَ دَوِّنُوا لأَنْفُسِكُمْ هَذَا النَّشِيدَ وَعَلِّمُوهُ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ضَعُوهُ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِمْ لِيَكُونَ هَذَا النَّشِيدُ شَهَادَةً عَلَيْهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
“Now therefore write this song for yourselves, and teach it to the children of Israel [God prevails]. Put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel [God prevails].
| لأَنِّي حَالَمَا أُدْخِلُهُمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي تَفِيضُ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً، هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي حَلَفْتُ أَنْ تَكُونَ لِآبَائِهِمْ، فَيَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْبَعُونَ وَيَسْمَنُونَ، فَإِنَّهُمْ يَسْعَوْنَ وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى وَيَعْبُدُونَهَا وَيَزْدَرُونَ بِي نَاقِضِينَ عَهْدِي. | ٢٠ 20 |
For when I have brought them into the land which I swore to their fathers, flowing with milk and honey, and they have eaten and filled themselves, and grown fat; then they will turn to other deities, and abad ·serve· them, and despise me, and break my covenant.
| فَمَتَى حَلَّتْ بِهِمْ شُرُورٌ كَثِيرَةٌ وَمَصَائِبُ جَمَّةٌ، يَشْهَدُ هَذَا النَّشِيدُ عَلَيْهِمْ، لأَنَّهُ سَيَظَلُّ يَتَرَدَّدُ عَلَى أَفْوَاهِ ذُرِّيَّتِهِمْ، إِذْ إِنَّنِي عَالِمٌ بِخَوَاطِرِهِمِ الَّتِي تَدُورُ بِخَلَدِهِمِ الآنَ قَبْلَ أَنْ أُدْخِلَهُمْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ كَمَا حَلَفْتُ». | ٢١ 21 |
It will happen, when many evils and troubles have come on them, that this song will testify before them as a witness; for it will not be forgotten out of the mouths of their descendants; for I know their ways and what they are doing today, before I have brought them into the land which I swore.”
| فَكَتَبَ مُوسَى هَذَا النَّشِيدَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، وَعَلَّمَهُ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
So Moses [Drawn out] wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel [God prevails].
| وَأَوْصَى الرَّبُّ يَشُوعَ بْنَ نُونَ قَائِلاً: «تَقَوَّ وَتَشَجَّعْ، لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تُدْخِلُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَقْسَمْتُ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا، وَأَنَا أَكُونُ مَعَكَ». | ٢٣ 23 |
He enjoined Joshua [Salvation Yah] the son of Nun, and said, “Be strong and courageous; for you shall bring the children of Israel [God prevails] into the land which I swore to them. I will be with you.”
| وَعِنْدَمَا أَتَمَّ مُوسَى تَدْوِينَ نُصُوصِ هَذِهِ التَّوْرَاةِ كَامِلَةً فِي كِتَابٍ، | ٢٤ 24 |
When Moses [Drawn out] had finished writing the words of this Torah ·Teaching· in a book, until they were finished,
| أَمَرَ اللّاوِيِّينَ حَامِلِي تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ الرَّبِّ قَائِلاً: | ٢٥ 25 |
Moses [Drawn out] enjoined the Levites [Descendants of United with], who bore the ark of Adonai’s covenant, saying,
| «خُذُوا كِتَابَ التَّوْرَاةِ هَذَا وَضَعُوهُ إِلَى جِوَارِ تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، لِيَكُونَ هُنَاكَ شَاهِداً عَلَيْكُمْ، | ٢٦ 26 |
“Take this book of the Torah ·Teaching·, and put it by the side of the ark of Adonai’s covenant your God, that it may be there for a witness against you.
| لأَنِّي أَعْرِفُ تَمَرُّدَكُمْ وَقَسَاوَةَ قُلُوبِكُمْ. إِذْ وَأَنَا مَازِلْتُ حَيًّا مَعَكُمُ الْيَوْمَ أَخَذْتُمْ فِي مُقَاوَمَةِ الرَّبِّ. فَكَمْ بِالأَحْرَى تَتَمَرَّدُونَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِي؟ | ٢٧ 27 |
For I know your rebellion, and your stiff neck. Behold, while I am yet alive with you today, you have been rebellious against Adonai. How much more after my death?
| اِجْمَعُوا إِلَيَّ جَمِيعَ شُيُوخِ أَسْبَاطِكُمْ وَعُرَفَاءَكُمْ، لأَتْلُوَ عَلَى مَسَامِعِهِمْ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ، وَأُشْهِدَ عَلَيْهِمِ السَّمَاءَ وَالأَرْضَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Assemble to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to witness against them.
| لأَنَّنِي وَاثِقٌ أَنَّكُمْ بَعْدَ مَوْتِي تَفْسَدُونَ وَتَضِلُّونَ عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ الَّتِي أَوْصَيْتُكُمْ بِها، فَيُصِيبُكُمُ الشَّرُّ فِي آخِرِ الأَيَّامِ، لأَنَّكُمْ تَقْتَرِفُونَ الشَّرَّ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ حَتَّى تُثِيرُوا غَيْظَهُ بِمَا تَجْنِيهِ أَيْدِيكُمْ.» | ٢٩ 29 |
For I know that after my death you will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have enjoined you; and evil will happen to you in the latter days; because you will do what Adonai sees as evil and provoke him to anger by your deeds.”
| فَتَلا مُوسَى فِي مَسَامِعِ كُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ كُلَّ كَلِمَاتِ أَبْيَاتِ هَذَا النَّشِيدِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
Moses [Drawn out] spoke in the ears of all the assembly of Israel [God prevails] the words of this song, until they were finished.
