هُوشَع 10
| إِنَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِثْلُ كَرْمَةٍ مُخْصِبَةٍ يُغِلُّ ثَمَراً لِنَفْسِهِ. كُلَّمَا تَكَاثَرَ مَحْصُولُ ثَمَرِهِ، زَادَ فِي بِنَاءِ الْمَذَابِحِ، وَبِمِقْدَارِ مَا تَجُودُ أَرْضُهُ، يُتْقِنُ بِنَاءَ أَنْصَابِهِ. | ١ 1 |
An emptied vine is Israel; how should he bring forth fruit for himself? the more numerous was his fruit the more he increased the altars; the more prosperous was his land, the more they made goodly statues.
| قُلُوبُهُمْ كُلُّهَا خِدَاعٌ، وَعَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يَتَحَمَّلُوا عِقَابَ ذُنُوبِهِمْ. إِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَهْدِمُ مَذَابِحَهُمْ وَيُدَمِّرُ أَوْثَانَهُمْ. | ٢ 2 |
Their heart is divided; now shall they bear their guilt: this will break down their altars, will devastate their statues.
| يَقُولُونَ الآنَ: «لَيْسَ لَنَا مَلِكٌ لأَنَّنَا لَمْ نَخْشَ اللهَ، وَمَاذَا فِي وُسْعِ الْمَلِكِ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ لَنَا؟» | ٣ 3 |
For now will they say, We have no king; because we fear not the Lord: and the king—what can he do for us?
| يَنْطِقُونَ بِكَلامِ لَغْوٍ وَيُبْرِمُونَ عُهُوداً بِأَقسَامٍ بَاطِلَةٍ، فَيَحُلُّ بِهِمِ الْقَضَاءُ كَأَعْشَابٍ سَامَّةٍ نَبَتَتْ فِي أَرْضٍ مَحْرُوثَةٍ. | ٤ 4 |
They have spoken [vain] words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: therefore springeth up the punishment as poison in the furrows of the field.
| يَخْشَى أَهْلُ السَّامِرَةِ عَلَى عِجْلِ بَيْتِ آوَنَ، لأَنَّ شَعْبَهُ يَنُوحُونَ عَلَيْهِ، وَكَذَلِكَ كَهَنَتَهُ الْخَوَنَةَ الَّذِينَ ابْتَهَجُوا بِبَهَائِهِ الَّذِي سُلِبَ مِنْهُ. | ٥ 5 |
For the calves of Beth-aven are terrified the inhabitants of Samaria: yea, the people thereof mourn over them, and also its false priests that [before] rejoiced over them, for its glory, because it is departed from it.
| سَيُحْمَلُ هَذَا الْعِجْلُ إِلَى أَشُّورَ هَدِيَّةً لِلْمَلِكِ الْعَظِيمِ، فَيَخْزَى أَفْرَايِمُ وَيَعْتَرِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الْخَجَلُ مِنِ اتِّكَالِهِ عَلَيْهِ. | ٦ 6 |
Also this shall be carried unto Assyria for a present to the contentious king: Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed because of his own counsel.
| يَهْلِكُ مَلِكُ السَّامِرَةِ كَقَشَّةٍ عَائِمَةٍ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْمِيَاهِ. | ٧ 7 |
As for Samaria, her king shall vanish like the foam upon the surface of the water.
| وَتُدَمَّرُ أَمَاكِنُ الْعِبَادَةِ عَلَى مَشَارِفِ آوَنَ الَّتِي أَضْحَتْ خَطِيئَةَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَيَنْمُو الشَّوْكُ وَالْحَسَكُ عَلَى مَذَابِحِهِمْ، فَيَقُولُونَ لِلْجِبَالِ: غَطِّينَا، وَلِلتِّلالِ: اسْقُطِي عَلَيْنَا. | ٨ 8 |
And destroyed shall be the high-places of Aven, [the cause of] the sin of Israel; the thorn and the thistle shall grow upon their altars: and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall upon us.
| لَقَدْ أَخْطَأْتَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ مُنْذُ أَيَّامِ جِبْعَةَ وَلَمْ تَكُفَّ عَنِ ارْتِكَابِ الإِثْمِ، أَلَمْ تُدْرِكْهُمُ الْحَرْبُ فِي جِبْعَةَ؟ | ٩ 9 |
More than in the days of Gib'ah hast thou sinned, O Israel! there they stood; and the battle in Gib'ah against the children of wickedness did not overtake them.
| فَأُعَاقِبُهُمْ عِنْدَمَا أَشَاءُ، إِذْ تَتَأَلَّبُ عَلَيْهِمْ أُمَمٌ وَتُقَيِّدُهُمْ بِالأَغْلالِ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ إِثْمِهِمِ الْمُتَكَاثِرِ. | ١٠ 10 |
[But now] after my desire will I chastise them: and the people shall be gathered against them, when they harness them [for labor] in their two furrows.
| كَانَ أَفْرَايِمُ كَعِجْلَةٍ مُرَوَّضَةٍ تُحِبُّ أَنْ تَدُوسَ الْقَمْحَ، وَلَكِنِّي سَأَضَعُ نِيراً عَلَى عُنُقِهَا الْجَمِيلِ الَّذِي حَافَظَتْ عَلَى سَلامَتِهِ، وَأَدْفَعُهَا إِلَى الْعَمَلِ الشَّاقِ، وَيَحْرُثُ يَهُوذَا وَيُمَهِّدُ إِسْرَائِيلُ الأَرْضَ. | ١١ 11 |
And Ephraim is as a well-taught heifer that loveth to tread out the corn; and I passed over her fair neck: now will I make Ephraim draw the wagon, Judah shall plough, and Jacob shall harrow the field for the enemy.
| ازْرَعُوا لأَنْفُسِكُمْ بِذَارَ الْبِرِّ، فَتَحْصُدُوا بِمُقْتَضَاهُ ثِمَارَ الرَّحْمَةِ، اُحْرُثُوا لَكُمْ حَرْثاً لأَنَّ هَذَا أَوَانُ الْتِمَاسِ الرَّبِّ، حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ وَيُمْطِرَ عَلَيْكُمْ غُيُوثَ صَلاحِهِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Sow then for yourselves after righteousness, that you may reap [the fruit] of kindness; cultivate your fallow field; for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness down for you.
| لَكِنَّكُمْ زَرَعْتُمُ الشَّرَّ فَحَصَدْتُمُ الإِثْمَ، وَأَكَلْتُمْ ثِمَارَ الْكَذِبِ لأَنَّكُمُ اتَّكَلْتُمْ عَلَى مَرْكَبَاتِكُمْ وَعَلَى كَثْرَةِ مُحَارِبِيكُمُ الْجَبَابِرَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
[But] ye have ploughed wickedness, iniquity have ye reaped, ye have eaten the fruit of lies; because thou didst trust in thy own way, in the multitude of thy mighty men:
| لِذَلِكَ يُدَوِّي زَئِيرُ الْمَعْرَكَةِ بَيْنَ شَعْبِكَ، وَتُدَمَّرُ جَمِيعُ حُصُونِكَ كَمَا دَمَّرَ شَلْمَانُ بَيْتَ أَرَبْئِيلَ فِي يَوْمِ الْقِتَالِ إِذْ أَصْبَحَتِ الأُمُّ مَعَ أَوْلادِهَا حُطَاماً. | ١٤ 14 |
Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy people, and all thy fortresses shall be wasted, as Shalman devastated Beth-arbel on the day of battle, [when] the mother was dashed in pieces upon her children.
| هَذَا مَا يَجْرِي عَلَيْكُمْ يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ عِقَاباً لَكُمْ عَلَى إِثْمِكُمُ الْعَظِيمِ، وَيَتِمُّ الْقَضَاءُ عَلَى مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ عِنْدَ انْبِلاجِ الْفَجْرِ. | ١٥ 15 |
The like of this doth Beth-el procure unto you because of your great wickedness: in the early morning shall utterly pass away the king of Israel.
