هُوشَع 2
| «قُولُوا لإِخْوَتِكُمْ عَمِّي (أَنْتُمْ شَعْبِي) وَلأَخَوَاتِكُمْ رُحَامَةَ (أَنَا أَرْحَمُكُم). | ١ 1 |
“Say of your brothers, ‘My people,’ and of your sisters, ‘My loved one.’
| حَاكِمُوا أُمَّكُمْ، لأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ زَوْجَتِي، وَأَنَا لَسْتُ رَجُلَهَا، حَتَّى تَخْلَعَ زِنَاهَا عَنْ وَجْهِهَا وَفُجُورَهَا مِنْ بَيْنِ ثَدْيَيْهَا. | ٢ 2 |
Rebuke your mother, rebuke her, for she is not My wife, and I am not her husband. Let her remove the adultery from her face and the unfaithfulness from between her breasts.
| لِئَلّا أُعَرِّيَهَا وَأَرُدَّهَا كَمَا كَانَتْ يَوْمَ مَوْلِدِهَا، وَأَجْعَلَهَا كَالْقَفْرِ أَوْ كَأَرْضٍ جَرْدَاءَ، وَأُمِيتَهَا ظَمَأً. | ٣ 3 |
Otherwise, I will strip her naked and expose her like the day of her birth. I will make her like a desert and turn her into a parched land, and I will let her die of thirst.
| وَلا أَرْحَمُ أَبْنَاءَهَا لأَنَّهُمْ أَوْلادُ زِنىً. | ٤ 4 |
I will have no compassion on her children, because they are the children of adultery.
| فَأُمُّهُمْ قَدْ زَنَتْ، وَالَّتِي حَمَلَتْهُمُ ارْتَكَبَتِ الْمُوبِقَاتِ، لأَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: أَسْعَى وَرَاءَ عُشَّاقِي الَّذِينَ يُقَدِّمُونَ لِي خُبْزِي وَمَائِي وَصُوفِي وَكَتَّانِي وَزَيْتِي وَمَشْرُوبَاتِي. | ٥ 5 |
For their mother has played the harlot and has conceived them in disgrace. For she thought, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me bread and water, wool and linen, oil and drink.’
| لِذَلِكَ أُسَيِّجُ طَرِيقَهَا بِالشَّوْكِ وَأَحُوطُهَا بِسُورٍ حَتَّى لَا تَجِدَ لَهَا مَسْلَكاً. | ٦ 6 |
Therefore, behold, I will hedge up her path with thorns; I will enclose her with a wall, so she cannot find her way.
| فَتَسْعَى وَرَاءَ عُشَّاقِهَا وَلَكِنَّهَا لَا تُدْرِكُهُمْ، وَتَلْتَمِسُهُمْ فَلا تَجِدُهُمْ، ثُمَّ تَقُولُ، لأَنْطَلِقَنَّ وَأَرْجِعَنَّ إِلَى زَوْجِي الأَوَّلِ، فَقَدْ كُنْتُ مَعَهُ فِي حَالٍ خَيْرٍ مِمَّا أَنَا عَلَيْهِ الآنَ. | ٧ 7 |
She will pursue her lovers but not catch them; she will seek them but not find them. Then she will say, ‘I will return to my first husband, for then I was better off than now.’
| إِنَّهَا لَمْ تَعْرِفْ أَنَّنِي أَنَا الَّذِي أَعْطَيْتُهَا الْقَمْحَ وَالْخُبْزَ وَالزَّيْتَ، وَأَغْدَقْتُ عَلَيْهَا الْفِضَّةَ وَالذَّهَبَ الَّتِي قَدَّمُوهَا لِلْبَعْلِ. | ٨ 8 |
For she does not acknowledge that it was I who gave her grain, new wine, and oil, who lavished on her silver and gold— which they crafted for Baal.
| لِذَلِكَ أَسْتَرِدُّ حِنْطَتِي فِي حِينِهَا، وَخَمْرِي فِي أَوَانِهِ، وَأَنْتَزِعُ صُوفِي وَكَتَّانِي اللَّذَيْنِ تَسْتُرُ بِهِمَا عُرْيَهَا. | ٩ 9 |
Therefore I will take back My grain in its time and My new wine in its season; I will take away My wool and linen, which were given to cover her nakedness.
| وَأَكْشِفُ عَوْرَتَهَا أَمَامَ عُشَّاقِهَا، وَلا يُنْقِذُهَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ يَدِي. | ١٠ 10 |
And then I will expose her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of My hands.
| وَأُبَطِّلُ كُلَّ أَفْرَاحِهَا وَأَعْيَادِهَا وَاحْتِفَالاتِ رُؤُوسِ شُهُورِهَا وَسُبُوتِهَا وَجَمِيعَ مَوَاسِمِهَا. | ١١ 11 |
I will put an end to all her exultation: her feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths— all her appointed feasts.
| وَأُتْلِفُ كُرُومَهَا وَتِينَهَا الَّتِي قَالَتْ عَنْهَا: هِيَ أُجْرَتِي الَّتِي قَبَضْتُهَا مِنْ عُشَّاقِي، فَأُحَوِّلُهَا إِلَى غَابَةٍ يَلْتَهِمُهَا وَحْشُ الصَّحْرَاءِ. | ١٢ 12 |
I will destroy her vines and fig trees, which she thinks are the wages paid by her lovers. So I will make them into a thicket, and the beasts of the field will devour them.
| وَأُعَاقِبُهَا عَلَى أَيَّامِ احْتِفَالاتِهَا بِآلِهَةِ الْبَعْلِ، حِينَ أَحْرَقَتْ لَهَا الْبَخُورَ، وَتَزَيَّنَتْ بِخَوَاتِمِهَا وَحُلِّيِهَا وَضَلَّتْ وَرَاءَ عُشَّاقِهَا وَنَسِيَتْنِي، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ١٣ 13 |
I will punish her for the days of the Baals when she burned incense to them, when she decked herself with rings and jewelry, and went after her lovers. But Me she forgot,”
| لِهَذَا، هَا أَنَا أَتَمَلَّقُهَا وَآخُذُهَا إِلَى الصَّحْرَاءِ وَأُخَاطِبُهَا بِحَنَانٍ، | ١٤ 14 |
“Therefore, behold, I will allure her and lead her to the wilderness, and speak to her tenderly.
| وَأَرُدُّ لَهَا كُرُومَهَا هُنَاكَ، وَأَجْعَلُ مِنْ وَادِي عَخُورَ (أَيْ وَادِي الإِزْعَاجِ) بَاباً لِلرَّجَاءِ، فَتَتَجَاوَبُ مَعِي كَالْعَهْدِ بِها فِي أَيَّامِ صِبَاهَا، حِينَ خَرَجَتْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ. | ١٥ 15 |
There I will give back her vineyards and make the Valley of Achor into a gateway of hope. There she will respond as she did in the days of her youth, as in the day she came up out of Egypt.
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، تَدْعِينَنِي: زَوْجِي، وَلا تَدْعِينَنِي أَبَداً: بَعْلِي. | ١٦ 16 |
In that day,” declares the LORD, “you will call Me ‘my Husband,’ and no longer call Me ‘my Master.’
| لأَنِّي أَنْزِعُ أَسْمَاءَ الْبَعْلِ مِنْ فَمِكِ، وَلا يَرِدُ ذِكْرُهَا بِأَسْمَائِهَا مِنْ بَعْدُ. | ١٧ 17 |
For I will remove from her lips the names of the Baals; no longer will their names be invoked.
| وَأُبْرِمُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ مِنْ أَجْلِكِ عَهْداً مَعَ وَحْشِ الْبَرِّيَّةِ وَطُيُورِ السَّمَاءِ وَزَوَاحِفِ الأَرْضِ وَأُحَطِّمُ الْقَوْسَ وَالسَّيْفَ، وَأُبْطِلُ الْحَرْبَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ، وَأَجْعَلُكِ تَنَامِينَ مُطْمَئِنَّةً | ١٨ 18 |
On that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the creatures that crawl on the ground. And I will abolish bow and sword and weapons of war in the land, and will make them lie down in safety.
| وَأَخْطُبُكِ لِنَفْسِي إِلَى الأَبَدِ، أَخْطُبُكِ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالْحَقِّ وَالإِحْسَانِ وَالْمَرَاحِمِ. | ١٩ 19 |
So I will betroth you to Me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness and justice, in loving devotion and compassion.
| أَخْطُبُكِ لِنَفْسِي بِالأَمَانَةِ فَتَعْرِفِينَ الرَّبَّ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And I will betroth you in faithfulness, and you will know the LORD.”
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَسْتَجِيبُ لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَغْمُرُ أَرْضَهُمْ بِالْمَطَرِ، فَتُثْمِرُ. | ٢١ 21 |
“On that day I will respond—” declares the LORD— “I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth.
| فَتُنْبِتُ الأَرْضُ الْقَمْحَ وَالْعِنَبَ وَالزَّيْتَ، وَكُلُّهَا تَسْتَجِيبُ لِيَزْرَعِيلَ (أَيْ: اللهُ يَزْرَعُ) | ٢٢ 22 |
And the earth will respond to the grain, to the new wine and oil, and they will respond to Jezreel.
| وَأَزْرَعُ شَعْبِي فِي الأَرْضِ لِنَفْسِي، وَأَرْحَمُ لُورُحَامَةَ (أَيْ: لَا رَحْمَةَ)، وَأَقُولُ: لِلُوعَمِّي (أَيْ: لَيْسَ شَعْبِي) أَنْتَ شَعْبِي، فَيَقُولُ: أَنْتَ إِلَهِي». | ٢٣ 23 |
And I will sow her as My own in the land, and I will have compassion on ‘No Compassion.’ I will say to those called ‘Not My People,’ ‘You are My people,’ and they will say, ‘You are my God.’”
