< خرُوج 19 >

وَفِي تَمَامِ الشَّهْرِ الثَّالِثِ مِنْ خُرُوجِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ وَصَلُوا إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ. ١ 1
In the third month of the departure of Israel out of the land of Egypt, on this day they came into the wilderness of Sinai:
فَقَدِ ارْتَحَلَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ مِنْ رَفِيدِيمَ إِلَى أَنْ جَاءُوا إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ، فَنَزَلُوا مُقَابِلَ الْجَبَلِ. ٢ 2
For departing out of Raphidim, and coming to the desert of Sinai, they camped in the same place, and there Israel pitched their tents over against the mountain.
فَصَعِدَ مُوسَى لِلْمُثُولِ أَمَامَ اللهِ. فَنَادَاهُ الرَّبُّ مِنَ الجَبَلِ: «هَكَذَا تَقُولُ لِآلِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَتُخْبِرُ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ: ٣ 3
And Moses went up to God: and the Lord called unto him from the mountain, and said: Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
لَقَدْ عَايَنْتُمْ بِأَنْفُسِكُمْ مَا أَجْرَيْتُهُ عَلَى مِصْرَ، وَكَيْفَ حَمَلْتُكُمْ عَلَى أَجْنِحَةِ النُّسُورِ وَجِئْتُ بِكُمْ إِلَيَّ. ٤ 4
You have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, how I have carried you upon the wings of eagles, and have taken you to myself.
لِذَلِكَ إنْ أَطَعْتُمْ عَهْدِي، تَكُونُوا لِي مِلْكاً خَاصّاً مِنْ بَيْنِ جَمِيعِ الشُّعُوبِ، لأَنَّ لِي كُلَّ الأَرْضِ. ٥ 5
If therefore you will hear my voice, and keep my covenant, you shall be my peculiar possession above all people: for all the earth is mine.
وَتَكُونُوا لِي مَمْلَكَةَ كَهَنَةٍ وَأُمَّةً مُقَدَّسَةً. هَذَا هُوَ الْكَلامُ الَّذِي تُخَاطِبُ بِهِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ». ٦ 6
And you shall be to me a priestly kingdom, and a holy nation. Those are the words thou shalt speak to the children of Israel.
فَاسْتَدْعَى مُوسَى شُيُوخَ الشَّعْبِ وَتَلا أَمَامَهُمْ جَمِيعَ هَذَا الْكَلامِ الَّذِي أَوْصَاهُ بِهِ الرَّبُّ. ٧ 7
Moses came, and calling together the elders of the people, he declared all the words which the Lord had commanded.
فَقَالَ كُلُّ الشَّعْبِ مَعاً: «كُلُّ مَا نَطَقَ بِهِ الرَّبُّ نَعْمَلُ». فَحَمَلَ مُوسَى جَوَابَهُمْ إِلَى الرَّبِّ. ٨ 8
And all the people answered together: All that the Lord hath spoken, we will do. And when Moses had related the people’s words to the Lord,
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «هَا أَنَا مُقْبِلٌ عَلَيْكَ فِي هَيْئَةِ سَحَابٍ مُظْلِمٍ، فَيَسْمَعُنِي الشَّعْبُ حِينَمَا أُخَاطِبُكَ، فَيَثِقُونَ أَيْضاً بِكَ دَائِماً». وَنَقَلَ مُوسَى إِلَى الرَّبِّ كَلامَ الشَّعْبِ. ٩ 9
The Lord said to him: Lo, now will I come to thee in the darkness of a cloud, that the people may hear me speaking to thee, and may believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «انْزِلْ إِلَى الشَّعْبِ وَقَدِّسْهُمُ الْيَوْمَ وَغَداً، وَدَعْهُمْ يَغْسِلُونَ ثِيَابَهُمْ، ١٠ 10
And he said to him: Go to the people, and sanctify them today, and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments.
لِيَكُونُوا مُتَأَهِّبِينَ لِلْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ، لأَنَّهُ فِي اليَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ أَنْزِلُ أَمَامَ جَمِيعِ الشَّعْبِ عَلَى جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ. ١١ 11
And let them be ready against the third day: for on the third day the Lord will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.
وَأَقِمْ حُدُوداً حَوْلَ الْجَبَلِ لَا يَتَخَطَّاهَا الشَّعْبُ. وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: حَذَارِ مِنْ أَنْ تَصْعَدُوا إِلَى الْجَبَلِ، أَوْ تَمَسُّوا طَرَفَهُ، فَكُلُّ مَنَ يَمَسُّ الْجَبَلَ حَتْماً يُقْتَلُ. ١٢ 12
And thou shalt appoint certain limits to the people round about, and thou shalt say to them: Take heed you go not up into the mount, and that ye touch not the borders thereof: every one that toucheth the mount dying he shall die.
لَا تَمَسُّهُ يَدٌ، بَلْ يُرْجَمُ رَجْماً أَوْ يُرْمَى بِالسِّهَامِ، سَوَاءَ أَكَانَ بَهِيمَةً أَمْ إِنْسَاناً. لَا يُبْقَى عَلَيْهِ. أَمَّا عِنْدَمَا يَتَرَدَّدُ صَوْتُ بُوقٍ طَوِيلٍ، فَعِنْدَئِذٍ فَقَطْ يَصْعَدُونَ إِلَى الْجَبَلِ». ١٣ 13
No hands shall touch him, but he shall be stoned to death, or shall be shot through with arrows: whether it be beast, or man, he shall not live. When the trumpet shall begin to sound, then let them go up into the mount.
وَبَعْدَ أَنِ انْحَدَرَ مُوسَى مِنَ الْجَبَلِ إِلَى الشَّعْبِ قَدَّسَهُمْ وَغَسَلُوا ثِيَابَهُمْ، ١٤ 14
And Moses came down from the mount to the people, and sanctified them. And when they had washed their garments,
وَقَالَ لِلشَّعْبِ: «كُونُوا مُتَأَهِّبِينَ لِلْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ، وَامْتَنِعُوا عَنْ مُعَاشَرَةِ نِسَائِكُمْ». ١٥ 15
He said to them: Be ready against the third day, and come not near your wives.
وَفِي صَبَاحِ الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ حَدَثَتْ رُعُودٌ وَبُرُوقٌ، وَخَيَّمَ سَحَابٌ كَثِيفٌ عَلَى الْجَبَلِ، وَدَوَّى صَوْتُ بُوقٍ قَوِيٌّ جِدّاً، فَارْتَعَدَ كُلُّ الشَّعْبِ الَّذِي فِي المُخَيَّمِ، ١٦ 16
And now the third day was come, and the morning appeared: and behold thunders began to be heard, and lightning to flash, and a very thick cloud to cover the mount, and the noise of the trumpet sounded exceeding loud, and the people that was in the camp, feared.
فَأَخْرَجَ مُوسَى الشَّعْبَ مِنَ المُخَيَّمِ لِلِقَاءِ اللهِ، فَوَقَفُوا عِنْدَ سَفْحِ الجَبَلِ. ١٧ 17
And when Moses had brought them forth to meet God from the place of the camp, they stood at the bottom of the mount.
وَكَانَ جَبَلُ سِينَاءَ كُلُّهُ مُغَطَّى بِدُخَانٍ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ نَزَلَ عَلَيْهِ فِي هَيْئَةِ نَارٍ. وَتَصَاعَدَ دُخَانُهُ كَدُخَانِ الأَتُونِ، وَاهْتَزَّ الجَبَلُ كُلُّهُ بِعُنْفٍ. ١٨ 18
And all mount Sinai was on a smoke: because the Lord was come down upon it in fire, and the smoke arose from it as out of a furnace: and all the mount was terrible.
وَازْدَادَ دَوِيُّ الْبُوقِ أَكْثَرَ فِيمَا كَانَ مُوسَى يَتَكَلَّمُ، وَالرَّبُّ يُجِيبُهُ بِرَعْدٍ. ١٩ 19
And the sound of the trumpet grew by degrees louder and louder, and was drawn out to a greater length: Moses spoke, and God answered him.
وَنَزَلَ الرَّبُّ عَلَى قِمَّةِ جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ، وَنَادَى مُوسَى لِيَصْعَدَ إِلَى قِمَّةِ الجَبَلِ، فَصَعِدَ إِلَيْهِ. ٢٠ 20
And the Lord came down upon mount Sinai, in the very top of the mount, and he called Moses unto the top thereof. And when he was gone up thither,
فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّبُّ: «انْزِلْ وَحَذِّرِ الشَّعْبَ لِئَلّا يَقْتَحِمُوا الجَبَلَ لِيَرَونِي فَيَهْلِكَ مِنْهُمْ كَثِيرُونَ. ٢١ 21
He said unto him: Go down, and charge the people: lest they should have a mind to pass the limits to see the Lord, and a very great multitude of them should perish.
وَلْيَتَقَدَّسْ أَيْضاً الْكَهَنَةُ الَّذِينَ يَقْتَرِبُونَ إِلَيَّ لِئَلّا أَبْطُشَ بِهِمْ». ٢٢ 22
The priests also that come to the Lord, let them be sanctified, lest he strike them.
فَقَالَ مُوسَى لِلرَّبِّ: «لا يَقْدِرُ الشَّعْبُ أَنْ يَصْعَدَ إِلَى جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ، لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ قَدْ حَذَّرْتَنَا قَائِلاً: أَقِمْ حُدُوداً حَوْلَ الجَبَلِ وَقَدِّسْهُ». ٢٣ 23
And Moses said to the Lord: The people cannot come up to mount Sinai: for thou did charge, and command, saying: Set limits about the mount, and sanctify it.
فَأَجَابَ الرَّبُّ: «انْزِلْ وَاصْعَدْ بِأَخِيكَ هَرُونَ مَعَكَ، أَمَّا الكَهَنَةُ وَالشَّعْبُ فَلا يَقْتَحِمُوا طَرِيقَهُمْ لِيَصْعَدُوا إِلَيَّ لِئَلّا أَبْطُشَ بِهِمْ». ٢٤ 24
And the Lord said to him: Go, get thee down: and thou shalt come up, thou and Aaron with thee: but let not the priests and the people pass the limits, nor come up to the Lord, lest he kill them.
فَانْحَدَرَ مُوسَى إِلَى الشَّعْبِ وَأَنْذَرَهُمْ. ٢٥ 25
And Moses went down to the people and told them all.
