إرْمِيا 16
| وَأَوْحَى الرَّبُّ إِلَيَّ بِهَذَا الْكَلامِ: | ١ 1 |
Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
| «لا تَتَزَوَّجْ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ وَلا تُنْجِبْ فِيهِ أَبْنَاءً وَلا بَنَاتٍ». | ٢ 2 |
“Do not take a wife for yourself, and do not have sons or daughters for yourself in this place.
| لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ عَنِ الأَبْنَاءِ وَالْبَنَاتِ الْمَوْلُودِينَ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ، وَعَنِ الأُمَّهَاتِ وَالآبَاءِ الَّذِينَ أَنْجَبُوهُمْ فِي هَذِهِ الْبِلادِ: | ٣ 3 |
For Yahweh says this to the sons and daughters who are born in this place, to the mothers who bear them, and to the fathers who caused them to be born in this land,
| «سَيَمُوتُونَ بِالأَمْرَاضِ، فَلا يُنْدَبُونَ، وَلا يُدْفَنُونَ بَلْ يُصْبِحُونَ نُفَايَةً مَطْرُوحَةً عَلَى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ، وَيَفْنَوْنَ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ، وَتَكُونُ جُثَثُهُمْ طَعَاماً لِجَوَارِحِ السَّمَاءِ وَلِوُحُوشِ الأَرْضِ. | ٤ 4 |
'They will die diseased deaths. They will not be mourned or buried. They will be like dung on the ground. For they will come to an end by sword and famine, and their corpses will be food for the birds of the skies and the beasts of the earth.'
| لَا تَدْخُلْ إِلَى بَيْتٍ فِيهِ مَأْتَمٌ، وَلا تَذْهَبْ لِتَنْدُبَ أَحَداً أَوْ لِلتَّعْزِيَةِ، لأَنِّي قَدْ نَزَعْتُ سَلامِي وَإِحْسَانِي وَمَرَاحِمِي مِنْ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ، | ٥ 5 |
For the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, 'Do not enter a house where there is mourning. Do not go to mourn or to show sympathy for them, for I have taken away my peace from this people—this is Yahweh's declaration—and my steadfast love and mercy.
| فَيَمُوتُ الصَّغِيرُ وَالْكَبِيرُ فِي هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ فَلا يُدْفَنُونَ وَلا يُنْدَبُونَ أَوْ يَخْدِشُ أَحَدٌ نَفْسَهُ أَوْ يَحْلِقُ شَعْرَهُ حِدَاداً عَلَيْهِمْ. | ٦ 6 |
Both the great and the small will die in this land. They will not be buried, and no one will mourn for them or cut themselves or shave their heads for them.
| وَلا يُقَدِّمْ أَحَدٌ طَعَاماً فِي مَأْتَمٍ عَزَاءً لَهُمْ عَنِ الْمَيْتِ، وَلا يَسْقُونَهُمْ كَأْسَ الْمُوَاسَاةِ عَنْ فَقْدِ أَبٍ أَوْ أُمٍّ. | ٧ 7 |
No one must share any food in mourning to comfort them because of the deaths, and none must give a comforting cup to his father or his mother in order to comfort them.
| وَلا تَذْهَبْ إِلَى بَيْتٍ فِيهِ مَأْدُبَةٌ لِتَجْلِسَ مَعَهُمْ وَتَأْكُلَ وَتَشْرَبَ، | ٨ 8 |
You must not go to a banquet house to sit with them in order to eat or drink.'
| لأَنِّي أَقْطَعُ مِنْ هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ، أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِكُمْ وَفِي أَيَّامِكُمْ، صَوْتَ أَهَازِيجِ الْبَهْجَةِ وَالطَّرَبِ، وَأَغَانِيَ الاحْتِفَالِ بِالْعَرُوسِ وَالْعَرِيسِ. | ٩ 9 |
For Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this, 'See, before your eyes, in your days and in this place, I am about to put an end to the sound of joy and the sound of gladness, the sound of the groom and the sound of the bride.'
| وَعِنْدَمَا تُبَلِّغُ هَذَا الشَّعْبَ هَذَا الْكَلامَ، وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ: لِمَاذَا قَضَى الرَّبُّ عَلَيْنَا بِكُلِّ هَذَا الشَّرِّ الْعَظِيمِ؟ مَا هِيَ آثَامُنَا؟ وَأَيَّةُ خَطِيئَةٍ ارْتَكَبْنَاهَا فِي حَقِّ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا؟ | ١٠ 10 |
Then it will happen that you will report all these words to this people, and they will say to you, 'Why has Yahweh decreed all this great disaster against us? What is our iniquity and sin that we sinned against Yahweh our God?'
| عِنْدَئِذٍ تُجِيبُهُمْ: يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: لأَنَّ أَبَاءَكُمْ نَبَذُونِي وَضَلُّوا وَرَاءَ الأَوْثَانِ وَعَبَدُوهَا وَسَجَدُوا لَهَا، وَتَرَكُونِي وَلَمْ يُطَبِّقُوا شَرِيعَتِي. | ١١ 11 |
So say to them, 'Because your ancestors abandoned me—this is Yahweh's declaration—and they went after other gods and worshiped and bowed down to them. They abandoned me and have not kept my law.
| وَلأَنَّكُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً قَدْ أَسَأْتُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ آبَائِكُمْ، وَغَوَى كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ وَرَاءَ قَلْبِهِ الشِّرِّيرِ الْعَنِيدِ وَرَفَضَ طَاعَتِي. | ١٢ 12 |
But you yourselves have brought about more wickedness than your ancestors, for see, each person is walking by the stubbornness of his wicked heart; there is no one who listens to me.
| لِذَلِكَ هَا أَنَا أَقْذِفُكُمْ خَارِجَ هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ إِلَى أَرْضٍ لَمْ تَعْرِفُوهَا أَنْتُمْ وَلا آبَاؤُكُمْ، فَتَعْبُدُونَ هُنَاكَ أَصْنَاماً بَاطِلَةً نَهَاراً وَلَيْلاً، لأَنِّي لَنْ أُبْدِيَ لَهُمْ رَحْمَتِي». | ١٣ 13 |
So I will throw you from this land to a land that you have not known, neither you nor your ancestors, and you will worship other gods there by day and night, for I will not give any favor to you.'
| لِهَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: «هَا أَيَّامٌ مُقْبِلَةٌ لَا يُقَالُ فِيهَا بَعْدُ: حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أَخْرَجَ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ مِصْرَ، | ١٤ 14 |
Therefore, behold, the days are coming—this is Yahweh's declaration—when it will no longer be said, 'As Yahweh lives, the one who brought up the people of Israel from the land of Egypt.'
| إِنَّمَا يُقَالُ: حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي أَخْرَجَ شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ بِلادِ الشِّمَالِ وَمِنْ سَائِرِ الأَرَاضِي الَّتِي سَبَاهُمْ إِلَيْهَا. لأَنِّي سَأُرْجِعُهُمْ ثَانِيَةً إِلَى أَرْضِهِمِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتُهَا لِآبَائِهِمْ. | ١٥ 15 |
but, 'As Yahweh lives, the one who brought up the people of Israel from the land of the north and from the lands where he had scattered them.' For I will bring them back to the land that I gave to their ancestors.
| هَا أَنَا أُرْسِلُ صَيَّادِينَ كَثِيرِينَ، لِيَصْطَادُوهُمْ، ثُمَّ أَبْعَثُ بِقَنَّاصِينَ كَثِيرِينَ لِيَقْتَنِصُوهُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ جَبَلٍ وَمِنْ كُلِّ رَابِيَةٍ وَمِنْ شُقُوقِ الصُّخُورِ. | ١٦ 16 |
Behold! I will send for many fishermen—this is Yahweh's declaration—so they will fish the people out. After this I will send for many hunters so they will hunt for them among all the mountains and hills, and in rock crevices.
| لأَنَّ عَيْنَيَّ تُرَاقِبَانِ طُرُقَهُمُ الَّتِي لَمْ تَحْتَجِبْ عَنِّي وَإِثْمَهُمُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَسْتَتِرْ عَنْ عَيْنَيَّ. | ١٧ 17 |
For my eye is on all their ways; they cannot be hidden from before me. Their iniquity cannot be concealed from before my eyes.
| فَأُعَاقِبُهُمْ عِقَاباً مُضَاعَفاً عَلَى إِثْمِهِمْ، لأَنَّهُمْ دَنَّسُوا أَرْضِي بِجُثَثِ أَصْنَامِهِمْ، وَمَلَأُوا مِيرَاثِي بِنَجَاسَاتِهِمْ». | ١٨ 18 |
I will first pay back double for their iniquity and sin for their polluting of my land with their disgusting idol figures, and for their filling my inheritance with their disgusting idols.”
| يَا رَبُّ أَنْتَ عِزِّي وَحِصْنِي وَمَلاذِي فِي يَوْمِ الضِّيقِ، إِلَيْكَ تُقْبِلُ الأُمَمُ مِنْ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ قَائِلَةً: «لَمْ يَرِثْ آبَاؤُنَا سِوَى الْبَاطِلِ وَالأَكَاذِيبِ وَمَا لَا جَدْوَى مِنْهُ. | ١٩ 19 |
Yahweh, you are my stronghold and my refuge, my place of safety in the day of distress. The nations will go to you from the ends of the earth and say, “Surely our ancestors inherited deceit. They are empty; there is no profit in them.
| هَلْ فِي وُسْعِ الْمَرْءِ أَنْ يَصْنَعَ لِنَفْسِهِ إِلَهاً؟ إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَيْسَتْ آلِهَةً. | ٢٠ 20 |
Do people make gods for themselves? But they are not gods.”
| فَلِذَلِكَ هَا أَنَا أُعَرِّفُهُمْ هَذِهِ الْمَرَّةَ قُوَّتِي وَجَبَرُوتِي، فَيُدْرِكُونَ أَنَّ اسْمِي يَهْوَه (أَيِ الرَّبُّ)». | ٢١ 21 |
Therefore see! I will cause them to know in this time, I will cause them to know my hand and my power, so they will know that Yahweh is my name.
