< هُوشَع 7 >
حِينَ كُنْتُ أَشْفِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، تَكَشَّفَتْ خَطِيئَةُ أَفْرَايِمَ، وَاسْتُعْلِنَتْ آثَامُ السَّامِرَةِ، فَقَدْ مَارَسُوا النِّفَاقَ وَاقْتَحَمَ اللُّصُوصُ الْبُيُوتَ، وَسَلَبَ قُطَّاعُ الطُّرُقِ فِي الْخَارِجِ. | ١ 1 |
When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without.
وَلَكِنَّهُمْ لَا يُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَتَذَكَّرُ سُوءَ أَعْمَالِهِمْ. هَا هِيَ أَعْمَالُهُمْ تُحِيطُ بِهِمْ، وَهِيَ دَائِماً مَاثِلَةٌ أَمَامِي. | ٢ 2 |
And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.
بِشَرِّهِمْ يُبْهِجُونَ الْمَلِكَ، وَبِخِيَانَتِهِمِ الرُّؤَسَاءَ. | ٣ 3 |
They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
كُلُّهُمْ فَاسِقُونَ مُلْتَهِبُونَ مِثْلَ فُرْنٍ مُتَّقِدٍ يَكُفُّ الْخَبَّازُ عَنْ إِشْعَالِهِ مَا بَيْنَ عَجْنِ الدَّقِيقِ إِلَى أَوَانِ اخْتِمَارِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.
فِي يَوْمِ احْتِفَالِ مَلِكِنَا انْتَشَى الرُّؤَسَاءُ مِنْ سَوْرَةِ الْخَمْرِ، وَانْضَمَّ هُوَ إِلَى الْمُتَبَذِّلِينَ. | ٥ 5 |
In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with the poison of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners.
فَقُلُوبُهُمْ تَشْتَعِلُ بِالْمَكَائِدِ كَالأَتُونِ. يَخْمُدُ غَضَبُهُمْ فِي اللَّيْلِ، وَيَتَوَهَّجُ كَنَارٍ مُلْتَهِبَةٍ عِنْدَ الصَّبَاحِ. | ٦ 6 |
For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
كُلُّهُمْ مُتَأَجِّجُونَ كَأَتُونٍ مُشْتَعِلٍ. يَفْتَرِسُونَ حُكَّامَهُمْ. هَلَكَ جَميِعُ مُلُوكِهِمْ، وَلَمْ يُوْجَدْ بَيْنَهُمْ مَنْ يَطْلُبُنِي. | ٧ 7 |
They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
قَدِ اخْتَلَطَ أَفْرَايِمُ بِالشُّعُوبِ، صَارَ كَرَغِيفٍ لَمْ يَنْضُجْ لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُقْلَبْ. | ٨ 8 |
Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
اسْتَنْزَفَ الْغُرَبَاءُ قُوَّتَهُ وَهُوَ لَا يَدْرِي، وَخَطَّ الشَّيْبُ شَعْرَ رَأْسِهِ وَهُوَ لَا يَعْلَمُ. | ٩ 9 |
Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not.
يَشْهَدُ غُرُورُ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَيْهِ وَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ إِلَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ، وَلا الْتَمَسَهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to Yhwh their God, nor seek him for all this.
إِنَّ أَفْرَايِمَ مِثْلُ حَمَامَةٍ غَبِيَّةٍ حَمْقَاءَ، تَسْتَنْجِدُ بِمِصْرَ تَارَةً وَتَسْتَغِيثُ بِأَشُّورَ تَارَةً أُخْرَى. | ١١ 11 |
Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
إِذَا ذَهَبُوا أَبْسُطُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَبَكَتِي وَأَطْرَحُهُمْ كَطُيُورِ السَّمَاءِ، وَأُعَاقِبُهُمْ بِمُقْتَضَى شُرُورِهِمْ. | ١٢ 12 |
When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard.
وَيْلٌ لَهُمْ لأَنَّهُمْ شَرَدُوا عَنِّي! تَبّاً لَهُمْ لأَنَّهُمْ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَيَّ! لَشَدَّ مَا أَتُوقُ لاِفْتِدَائِهِمْ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ نَطَقُوا عَلَيَّ كَذِباً. | ١٣ 13 |
Woe unto them! for they have fled from me: destruction unto them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
لَمْ يَسْتَغِيثُوا بِي مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِهِمْ، بَلْ وَلْوَلُوا فِي مَضَاجِعِهِمْ، وَتَجَمَّعُوا حَوْلَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ يَطْلُبُونَ قَمْحاً وَخَمْراً، وَارْتَدُّوا عَنِّي. | ١٤ 14 |
And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for grain and wine, and they rebel against me.
دَرَّبْتُهُمْ عَلَى الْقِتَالِ وشَدَّدْتُهُمْ، وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ ارْتَكَبُوا الشَّرَّ ضِدِّي. | ١٥ 15 |
Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me.
لَا يَرْجِعُونَ إِلَيَّ، فَهُمْ كَقَوْسٍ مُلْتَوِيَةٍ مُخْطِئَةٍ. يَهْلِكُ رُؤَسَاؤُهُمْ بِالسَّيْفِ لِفَرْطِ سَلاطَةِ أَلْسِنَتِهِمْ، وَيُصْبِحُ مَصِيرُهُمْ مَثَارَ سُخْرِيَةِ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ. | ١٦ 16 |
They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
