هُوشَع 9
| لَا تَبْتَهِجْ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ وَلا تَطْرَبْ كَبَقِيَّةِ الشُّعُوبِ، لأَنَّكَ قَدْ خُنْتَ إِلَهَكَ وَهَجَرْتَهُ، وَأَحْبَبْتَ أُجْرَةَ الزِّنَى عَلَى كُلِّ بَيَادِرِ الْحِنْطَةِ. | ١ 1 |
Do not rejoice, O Israel, with exultation like the nations, for you have played the harlot against your God; you have made love for hire on every threshing floor.
| لِهَذَا فَإِنَّ الْبَيْدَرَ وَالْمِعْصَرَةَ لَا يُطْعِمَانِكُمْ وَالْخَمْرَةَ الْجَدِيدَةَ لَا تُلَبِّي حَاجَتَكُمْ. | ٢ 2 |
The threshing floor and winepress will not feed them, and the new wine will fail them.
| لَنْ تَظَلُّوا مُقِيمِينَ فِي أَرْضِ الرَّبِّ بَلْ يَرْجِعَ أَفْرَايِمُ إِلَى دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، وَيَأْكُلُوا لَحْماً نَجِساً فِي أَشُّورَ. | ٣ 3 |
They will not remain in the land of the LORD; Ephraim will return to Egypt and eat unclean food in Assyria.
| لَا تَسْكُبُوا لِلرَّبِّ خَمْراً وَلَنْ تَسُرَّهُ ذَبَائِحُكُمْ، بَلْ تَكُونُ لَكُمْ كَخُبْزِ النَّائِحِينَ. كُلُّ مَنْ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ يَتَنَجَّسُ، إِذْ يَكُونُ خُبْزُكُمْ لِسَدِّ جُوعِكُمْ فَقَطْ، وَلا يَدْخُلُ أَبَداً إِلَى بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ. | ٤ 4 |
They will not pour out wine offerings to the LORD, and their sacrifices will not please Him, but will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat will be defiled. For their bread will be for themselves; it will not enter the house of the LORD.
| مَاذَا تَفْعَلُونَ فِي يَوْمِ الاِحْتِفَالِ وَفِي يَوْمِ عِيدِ الرَّبِّ؟ | ٥ 5 |
What will you do on the appointed day, on the day of the LORD’s feast?
| حَتَّى لَوْ سَلِمْتُمْ مِنَ الْخَرَابِ فَإِنَّ مِصْرَ تَجْمَعُكُمْ وَمَنْفَ تُفْنِيكُمْ وَتَدْفِنُكُمْ. يَرِثُ الْقَرِيصُ نَفَائِسَ فِضَّتِكُمْ، وَيَنْمُو الْعَوْسَجُ فِي مَنَازِلِكُمْ. | ٦ 6 |
For even if they flee destruction, Egypt will gather them and Memphis will bury them. Their precious silver will be taken over by thistles, and thorns will overrun their tents.
| لَقَدْ أَزِفَتْ أَيَّامُ الْعِقَابِ وَحَانَ يَوْمُ الْحِسَابِ، فَلْيَعْلَمْ إِسْرَائِيلُ هَذَا. لِكَثْرَةِ إِثْمِكَ وَفَرْطِ حِقْدِكَ حُسِبَ النَّبِيُّ أَحْمَقَ، وَرَجُلُ الرُّوحِ مَجْنُوناً. | ٧ 7 |
The days of punishment have come; the days of retribution have arrived— let Israel know it. The prophet is called a fool, and the inspired man insane, because of the greatness of your iniquity and hostility.
| إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ هُوَ رَقِيبُ أَفْرَايِمَ شَعْبِ إِلَهِي، غَيْرَ أَنَّ فَخَّ صَيَّادٍ قَدْ نُصِبَ فِي كُلِّ طُرُقِهِ، وَطَغَى الْحِقْدُ عَلَى بَيْتِ إِلَهِي. | ٨ 8 |
The prophet is Ephraim’s watchman, along with my God, yet the snare of the fowler lies on all his paths. Hostility is in the house of his God!
| قَدْ أَوْغَلُوا فِي الْفَسَادِ كَمَا حَدَثَ فِي أَيَّامِ جِبْعَةَ، لِهَذَا سَيَذْكُرُ إِثْمَهُمْ وَيُعَاقِبُهُمْ عَلَى خَطَايَاهُمْ. | ٩ 9 |
They have deeply corrupted themselves as in the days of Gibeah; He will remember their guilt; He will punish their sins.
| وَجَدْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ كَعِنَبٍ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَرَأَيْتُ آبَاءَهُمْ كَبَاكُورَةِ ثَمَرِ شَجَرَةِ التِّينِ فِي أَوَّلِ مَوْسِمِهَا. وَلَكِنَّهُمُ الْتَصَقُوا بِبَعْلِ فَغُورَ وَنَذَرُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ لِلصَّنَمِ الْمُخْزِي، فَأَصْبَحُوا رِجْساً نَظِيرَ الشَّيْءِ الَّذِي أَحَبُّوهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness. I saw your fathers as the firstfruits of the fig tree in its first season. But they went to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves to Shame; so they became as detestable as the thing they loved.
| إِنَّ مَجْدَ أَفْرَايِمَ يَتَوَارَى كَالطَّائِرِ الْمُحَلِّقِ إِذْ يَمُوتُ أَوْلادُكُمْ فِي أَثْنَاءِ الْوِلادَةِ أَوْ فِي الأَرْحَامِ، أَوْ لَا يُحْبَلُ بِهِمْ أَبَداً. | ١١ 11 |
Ephraim’s glory will fly away like a bird, with no birth, no pregnancy, and no conception.
| وَحَتَّى إِنْ أَنْجَبُوا أَوْلاداً فَإِنِّي أَحْرِمُكُمْ مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى لَا يَبْقَى مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ. وَيْلٌ لَكُمْ حِينَ أَنْصَرِفُ عَنْكُمْ. | ١٢ 12 |
Even if they raise their children, I will bereave them of each one. Yes, woe be to them when I turn away from them!
| مَصِيرُ أَبْنَاءِ أَفْرَايِمَ، كَمَا أَرَى، هُوَ الوُقُوعُ فِي قَبْضَةِ الصَّيَّادِ، لأَنَّ أَفْرَايِمَ، يَقْتَادُ أَبْنَاءَهُ لِلذَّبْحِ. | ١٣ 13 |
I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a meadow. But Ephraim will bring out his children for slaughter.
| أَعْطِهِمْ يَا رَبُّ: وَلَكِنْ مَاذَا تُعْطِيهِمْ؟ أَعْطِهِمْ نِسَاءً ذَوَاتِ أَرْحَامٍ مُسْقِطَةٍ، وَأَثْدَاءَ جَافَّةٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
Give them, O LORD— what will You give? Give them wombs that miscarry and breasts that dry up!
| فِي الْجِلْجَالِ ارْتَكَبُوا جَمِيعَ شُرُورِهِمْ، فَكَرِهْتُهُمْ هُنَاكَ. لِسُوءِ أَعْمَالِهِمْ أَطْرُدُهُمْ مِنْ بَيْتِي وَلا أَعُودُ أُحِبُّهُمْ، فَكُلُّ رُؤَسَائِهِمْ مُتَمَرِّدُونَ. | ١٥ 15 |
All their evil appears at Gilgal, for there I hated them. I will drive them from My house for the wickedness of their deeds. I will no longer love them; all their leaders are rebellious.
| أَفْرَايِمُ مُصَابٌ. قَدْ جَفَّتْ أُصُولُهُمْ فَلَنْ يُثْمِرُوا، وَإِنْ أَنْجَبُوا فَإِنِّي أُهْلِكُ أَبْنَاءَهُمُ الأَعِزَّاءَ. | ١٦ 16 |
Ephraim is struck down; their root is withered; they cannot bear fruit. Even if they bear children, I will slay the darlings of their wombs.
| يَنْبِذُهُمْ إِلَهِي لأَنَّهُمْ أَبَوْا الِاسْتِمَاعَ إِلَيْهِ، لِهَذَا يَتَشَرَّدُونَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ. | ١٧ 17 |
My God will reject them because they have not obeyed Him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
