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 have healed Israel, then shall the iniquity of Ephraim be revealed, and the wickedness of Samaria; for they have wrought falsehood: and a thief shall come in to him, [even] a robber spoiling in his way;
| وَلَكِنَّهُمْ لَا يُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَتَذَكَّرُ سُوءَ أَعْمَالِهِمْ. هَا هِيَ أَعْمَالُهُمْ تُحِيطُ بِهِمْ، وَهِيَ دَائِماً مَاثِلَةٌ أَمَامِي. | ٢ 2 |
that they may concert together as [men] singing in their heart: I remember all their wickedness: now have their own counsels compassed them about; they came before my face.
| بِشَرِّهِمْ يُبْهِجُونَ الْمَلِكَ، وَبِخِيَانَتِهِمِ الرُّؤَسَاءَ. | ٣ 3 |
They gladdened kings with their wickedness, and 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 glowing with flame for hot-baking, on account of the kneading of the dough, until it is leavened.
| فِي يَوْمِ احْتِفَالِ مَلِكِنَا انْتَشَى الرُّؤَسَاءُ مِنْ سَوْرَةِ الْخَمْرِ، وَانْضَمَّ هُوَ إِلَى الْمُتَبَذِّلِينَ. | ٥ 5 |
[In] the days of our kings, the princes began to be inflamed with wine: he stretched out his hand with pestilent fellows.
| فَقُلُوبُهُمْ تَشْتَعِلُ بِالْمَكَائِدِ كَالأَتُونِ. يَخْمُدُ غَضَبُهُمْ فِي اللَّيْلِ، وَيَتَوَهَّجُ كَنَارٍ مُلْتَهِبَةٍ عِنْدَ الصَّبَاحِ. | ٦ 6 |
Therefore their hearts are inflamed as an oven, while they rage all the night: Ephraim is satisfied with sleep; the morning is come; he is burnt up as a flame of fire.
| كُلُّهُمْ مُتَأَجِّجُونَ كَأَتُونٍ مُشْتَعِلٍ. يَفْتَرِسُونَ حُكَّامَهُمْ. هَلَكَ جَميِعُ مُلُوكِهِمْ، وَلَمْ يُوْجَدْ بَيْنَهُمْ مَنْ يَطْلُبُنِي. | ٧ 7 |
They are all heated like an oven, and have devoured their judges: all their kings are fallen; there was not among them one that called on me.
| قَدِ اخْتَلَطَ أَفْرَايِمُ بِالشُّعُوبِ، صَارَ كَرَغِيفٍ لَمْ يَنْضُجْ لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُقْلَبْ. | ٨ 8 |
Ephraim is mixed among his people; Ephraim became a cake not turned.
| اسْتَنْزَفَ الْغُرَبَاءُ قُوَّتَهُ وَهُوَ لَا يَدْرِي، وَخَطَّ الشَّيْبُ شَعْرَ رَأْسِهِ وَهُوَ لَا يَعْلَمُ. | ٩ 9 |
Strangers devoured his strength, and he knew [it] not; and grey hairs came upon him, and he knew [it] not.
| يَشْهَدُ غُرُورُ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَيْهِ وَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ إِلَى الرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ، وَلا الْتَمَسَهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
And the pride of Israel shall be brought down before his face: yet they have not returned to the Lord their God, neither have they diligently sought him for all this.
| إِنَّ أَفْرَايِمَ مِثْلُ حَمَامَةٍ غَبِيَّةٍ حَمْقَاءَ، تَسْتَنْجِدُ بِمِصْرَ تَارَةً وَتَسْتَغِيثُ بِأَشُّورَ تَارَةً أُخْرَى. | ١١ 11 |
And Ephraim was as a silly dove, not having a heart: he called to Egypt, and they went to the Assyrians.
| إِذَا ذَهَبُوا أَبْسُطُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَبَكَتِي وَأَطْرَحُهُمْ كَطُيُورِ السَّمَاءِ، وَأُعَاقِبُهُمْ بِمُقْتَضَى شُرُورِهِمْ. | ١٢ 12 |
Whenever they shall go, I will cast my net upon them; I will bring them down as the birds of the sky, I will chasten them with the rumor of their [coming] affliction.
| وَيْلٌ لَهُمْ لأَنَّهُمْ شَرَدُوا عَنِّي! تَبّاً لَهُمْ لأَنَّهُمْ تَمَرَّدُوا عَلَيَّ! لَشَدَّ مَا أَتُوقُ لاِفْتِدَائِهِمْ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ نَطَقُوا عَلَيَّ كَذِباً. | ١٣ 13 |
Woe to them! for they have started aside from me: they are cowards; for they have sinned against me: yet I redeemed them, but they spoke falsehoods against me.
| لَمْ يَسْتَغِيثُوا بِي مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِهِمْ، بَلْ وَلْوَلُوا فِي مَضَاجِعِهِمْ، وَتَجَمَّعُوا حَوْلَ أَصْنَامِهِمْ يَطْلُبُونَ قَمْحاً وَخَمْراً، وَارْتَدُّوا عَنِّي. | ١٤ 14 |
And their hearts did not cry to me, but they howled on their beds: they pined for oil and wine.
| دَرَّبْتُهُمْ عَلَى الْقِتَالِ وشَدَّدْتُهُمْ، وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ ارْتَكَبُوا الشَّرَّ ضِدِّي. | ١٥ 15 |
They were instructed by me, and I strengthened their arms; and they devised evils against me.
| لَا يَرْجِعُونَ إِلَيَّ، فَهُمْ كَقَوْسٍ مُلْتَوِيَةٍ مُخْطِئَةٍ. يَهْلِكُ رُؤَسَاؤُهُمْ بِالسَّيْفِ لِفَرْطِ سَلاطَةِ أَلْسِنَتِهِمْ، وَيُصْبِحُ مَصِيرُهُمْ مَثَارَ سُخْرِيَةِ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ. | ١٦ 16 |
They turned aside to that which is not, they became as a bent bow: their princes shall fall by the sword, by reason of the unbridled state of their tongue: this is their setting at nothing in the land of Egypt.
