إرْمِيا 14
| هَذِهِ كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ الَّتِي أَوْحَى بِها إِلَى إرْمِيَا بِشَأْنِ الْقَحْطِ: | ١ 1 |
The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah concerning the dearth.
| «أَرْضُ يَهُوذَا تَنُوحُ وَأَبْوَابُهَا وَاهِيَةٌ. أَهْلُهَا يَنْدُبُونَ مَطْرُوحِينَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ، وَعَوِيلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ قَدْ صَعِدَ إِلَى الْعُلَى. | ٢ 2 |
Judah mourneth, and her gates languish; they are black to the ground; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.
| أَرْسَلَ أَشْرَافُهُمْ خُدَّامَهُمْ لِيَحْمِلُوا إِلَيْهِمِ الْمَاءَ، فَأَقْبَلُوا إِلَى الْجِبَابِ وَإذَا بِها فَارِغَةٌ مِنَ الْمَاءِ، فَرَجَعُوا بِجِرَارٍ خَاوِيَةٍ وَقَدِ اعْتَرَاهُمُ الْخِزْيُ وَالْخَجَلُ وَغَطَّوْا رُؤُوسَهُمْ. | ٣ 3 |
And their nobles have sent their little ones to the waters: they came to the pits, [and] found no water; they returned with their vessels empty; they were ashamed and confounded, and covered their heads.
| خَزِيَ الْفَلاحُونَ وَغَطَّوْا رُؤُوسَهُمْ لأَنَّ الأَرْضَ قَدْ تَشَقَّقَتْ لاِنْقِطَاعِ الْمَطَرِ عَنْهَا. | ٤ 4 |
Because the ground is chapt, for there was no rain on the earth, the plowmen were ashamed, they covered their heads.
| حَتَّى الإِيَّلُ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ قَدْ هَجَرَتْ وَلِيدَهَا لِتَعَذُّرِ وُجُودِ الْكَلَأ. | ٥ 5 |
Yes, the hind also calved in the field, and forsook [it], because there was no grass.
| وَقَفَتِ الْفِرَاءُ عَلَى الرَّوَابِي وَتَنَسَّمَتِ الرِّيحَ كَبَنَاتِ آوَى فَكَلَّتْ عُيُونُهَا لِعَدَمِ وُجُودِ الْعُشْبِ». | ٦ 6 |
And the wild asses stood in the high places, they snuffed up the wind like dragons; their eyes failed, because [there was] no grass.
| وَإِنْ تَكُنْ آثَامُنَا تَشْهَدُ عَلَيْنَا يَا رَبُّ، فَلأَجْلِ اسْمِكَ خَلِّصْنَا، لأَنَّ مَعَاصِيَنَا كَثُرَتْ وَقَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا إِلَيْكَ. | ٧ 7 |
O LORD, though our iniquities testify against us, do thou [it] for thy name's sake: for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against thee.
| يَا رَجَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمُخَلِّصَهُ فِي وَقْتِ الضِّيقِ، لِمَاذَا تَكُونُ كَغَرِيبٍ فِي الأَرْضِ، وَكَعَابِرِ سَبِيلٍ يَمِيلُ لِيَبِيتَ ثُمَّ يَمْضِي؟ | ٨ 8 |
O the hope of Israel, his Savior in time of trouble, why shouldst thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a way-faring man [that] turneth aside to tarry for a night?
| لِمَاذَا تَكُونُ كَالرَّجُلِ الْمُتَحَيِّرِ وكَجَبَّارٍ يَعْجِزُ عَنِ الْخَلاصِ؟ وَأَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ قَائِمٌ فِي وَسَطِنَا، وَبِاسْمِكَ دُعِينَا، فَلا تَتْرُكْنَا. | ٩ 9 |
Why shouldst thou be as a man astonished, as a mighty man [that] cannot save? yet thou, O LORD, [art] in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.
| وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ لِهَذَا الشَّعْبِ: «لَشَدَّ مَا أَحَبُّوا التَّجَوُّلَ وَلَمْ يَمْتَنِعُوا عَنِ الشَّرِّ، لِذَلِكَ لَا يَقْبَلُهُمُ اللهُ. وَالآنَ يَذْكُرُ إِثْمَهُمْ وَيُعَاقِبُ خَطَايَاهُمْ». | ١٠ 10 |
Thus saith the LORD to this people, Thus have they loved to wander, they have not restrained their feet, therefore the LORD doth not accept them; he will now remember their iniquity, and visit their sins.
| وَقَالَ لِيَ الرَّبُّ: «لا تُصَلِّ لِخَيْرِ الشَّعْبِ. | ١١ 11 |
Then said the LORD to me, Pray not for this people for [their] good.
| وَإِنْ صَامُوا فَلَنْ أَسْتَجِيبَ إِلَى صُرَاخِهِمْ، وَإِنْ قَرَّبُوا مُحْرَقَاتٍ وَتَقْدِمَاتِ دَقِيقٍ فَلَنْ أَتَقَبَّلَهَا، وَلَكِنِّي أُفْنِيهِمْ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْمَجَاعَةِ وَالْوَبَاءِ». | ١٢ 12 |
When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt-offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.
| ثُمَّ قُلْتُ: «آهِ أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، هَا الأَنْبِيَاءُ الْكَذَبَةُ يَقُولُونَ لَهُمْ: لَنْ تَتَعَرَّضُوا لِلسَّيْفِ وَلا لِلْجُوعِ، بَلْ أُنْعِمُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِسَلامٍ مُحَقَّقٍ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ». | ١٣ 13 |
Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! behold, the prophets say to them, Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.
| وَقَالَ لِيَ الرَّبُّ: «إِنَّ الأَنْبِيَاءَ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ زُوراً بِاسْمِي وَأَنَا لَمْ أُرْسِلْهُمْ وَلَمْ آمُرْهُمْ، وَلَمْ أُكَلِّمْهُمْ، إِنَّمَا هُمْ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ لَكُمْ بِرُؤْيَا كَاذِبَةٍ وَعِرَافَةٍ بَاطِلَةٍ مُسْتَوْحَاةٍ مِنْ ضَلالِ قُلُوبِهِمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
Then the LORD said to me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I have not sent them, neither have I commanded them, neither spoken to them: they prophesy to you a false vision and divination, and a thing of naught, and the deceit of their heart.
| لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ عَنْ هَؤُلاءِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ الْمُتَنَبِّئِينَ بِاسْمِي: مَعَ أَنِّي لَمْ أُرْسِلْهُمْ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ: لَنْ تُبْتَلَى هَذِهِ الأَرْضُ بِسَيْفٍ وَلا مَجَاعَةٍ، لِهَذَا فَإِنَّ هَؤلاءِ الأَنْبِيَاءَ يَفْنَوْنَ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْمَجَاعَةِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.
| وَيَغْدُو الشَّعْبُ الَّذِي يَتَنَبَّأُونَ لَهُ، مَطْرُوحاً صَرِيعاً فِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ فَرِيسَةَ الْجُوعِ وَالسَّيْفِ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَدْفِنُهُمْ هُمْ وَنِسَاءَهُمْ وَأَبْنَاءَهُمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ، وَأَصُبُّ شَرَّهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ». | ١٦ 16 |
And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem, because of the famine, and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.
| وَقُلْ لَهُمْ هَذَا الْكَلامَ: «لِتَذْرِفْ عَيْنَايَ دُمُوعاً لَيْلاً وَنَهَاراً، وَلا تَكُفَّا أَبَداً لأَنَّ أُورُشَلِيمَ سُحِقَتْ سَحْقاً عَظِيماً بِضَرْبَةٍ أَلِيمَةٍ جِدّاً. | ١٧ 17 |
Therefore thou shalt say this word to them; Let my eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease: for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous blow.
| إِنْ خَرَجْتُ إِلَى الْحُقُولِ أَشْهَدُ قَتْلَى السَّيْفِ، وَإِنْ دَخَلْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ أَرَى ضَحَايَا الْمَجَاعَةِ. وَهَا النَّبِيُّ وَالْكَاهِنُ كِلاهُمَا يَذْهَبَانِ إِلَى أَرْضٍ لَا يَعْرِفَانِهَا». | ١٨ 18 |
If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine! yes, both the prophet and the priest go about into a land that they know not.
| هَلْ تَنَكَّرْتَ لِيَهُوذَا كُلَّ التَّنَكُّرِ؟ وَهَلْ كَرِهَتْ نَفْسُكَ صِهْيَوْنَ؟ مَا بَالُكَ قَدِ ابْتَلَيْتَنَا بِضَرْبَةٍ لَا شِفَاءَ مِنْهَا؟ وَقَدْ طَلَبْنَا السَّلامَ فَلَمْ نَحْظَ بِالْخَيْرِ. رَجَوْنَا وَقْتَ الشِّفَاءِ وَإذَا بِنَا نَلْقَى الرُّعْبَ. | ١٩ 19 |
Hast thou utterly rejected Judah? hath thy soul loathed Zion? Why hast thou smitten us, and [there is] no healing for us? we looked for peace, and [there is] no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble!
| نَحْنُ نُقِرُّ بِشَرِّنَا يَا رَبُّ وَبِآثَامِ آبَائِنَا، لأَنَّنَا قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا إِلَيْكَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
We acknowledge, O LORD, our wickedness, [and] the iniquity of our fathers; for we have sinned against thee.
| لَا تَرْفُضْنَا مِنْ أَجْلِ اسْمِكَ وَلا تَهِنْ عَرْشَكَ الْمَجِيدَ. اذْكُرْ عَهْدَكَ مَعَنَا وَلا تَنْقُضْهُ. | ٢١ 21 |
Do not abhor [us], for thy name's sake; do not disgrace the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant with us.
| هَلْ بَيْنَ أَصْنَامِ الأُمَمِ الْبَاطِلَةِ مَنْ يَمْطُرُ؟ أَوْ هَلْ تَسْكُبُ السَّمَوَاتُ بِنَفْسِهَا وَابِلَ الْغَيْثِ؟ أَلَسْتَ أَنْتَ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا؟ إِنَّنَا إِيَّاكَ نَرْجُو لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ صَنَعْتَ هَذِهِ جَمِيعَهَا. | ٢٢ 22 |
Are there [any] among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? [art] not thou he, O LORD our God? therefore we will wait upon thee: for thou hast made all these [things].
