«قَدْ دُوِّنَتْ خَطِيئَةُ يَهُوذَا بِقَلَمٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ، وَنُقِشَتْ بِرَأْسٍ مِنَ الْمَاسِ عَلَى أَلْوَاحِ قُلُوبِهِمْ وَعَلَى قُرُونِ الْمَذَابِحِ، ١ 1
The sin of Judah [is] written with a pen of iron, [and] with the point of a diamond: [it is] graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;
بَيْنَمَا أَبْنَاؤُهُمْ يَذْكُرُونَ مَذَابِحَهُمْ وَأَنْصَابَ عَشْتَارُوثَ إِلَى جُوَارِ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ وَعَلَى الآكَامِ الْمُرْتَفِعَةِ، ٢ 2
Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills.
وَعَلَى الْجِبَالِ الْمُنْتَشِرَةِ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ الشَّاسِعَةِ. لِذَلِكَ أَجْعَلُ ثَرْوَتَكَ وَكُنُوزَكَ نَهْباً، ثَمَناً لِخَطِيئَتِكَ الَّتِي ارْتَكَبْتَهَا فِي جَمِيعِ تُخُومِكَ، ٣ 3
O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance [and] all thy treasures to the spoil, [and] thy high places for sin, throughout all thy borders.
وَتَفْقِدُ بِنَفْسِكَ مِيرَاثَكَ الَّذِي وَهَبْتُهُ لَكَ، وَأَجْعَلُكَ مُسْتَعْبَداً لأَعْدَائِكَ فِي أَرْضٍ لَا تَعْرِفُهَا لأَنَّكَ أَضْرَمْتَ نَاراً فِي غَضَبِي لَا يَخْمَدُ لَهَا لَهِيبٌ». ٤ 4
And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, [which] shall burn for ever.
وَهَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: «لِيَكُنْ مَلْعُوناً كُلُّ مَنْ يَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَى بَشَرٍ، وَيَتَّخِذُ مِنَ النَّاسِ ذِرَاعَ قُوَّةٍ لَهُ، وَيُحَوِّلُ قَلْبَهُ عَنِ الرَّبِّ. ٥ 5
Thus saith the LORD; Cursed [be] the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
فَيَكُونُ كَالأَثَلِ فِي الْبَادِيَةِ، لَا يَرَى الْفَلاحَ عِنْدَمَا يُقْبِلُ. يُقِيمُ فِي حَرِّ الصَّحْرَاءِ الشَّدِيدِ، فِي الأَرْضِ الْمَهْجُورَةِ مِنَ النَّاسِ لِمُلُوحَتِهَا. ٦ 6
For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, [in] a salt land and not inhabited.
وَلَكِنْ مُبَارَكٌ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي يَتَّكِلُ عَلَى الرَّبِّ، وَيَتَّخِذُهُ مُعْتَمَداً لَهُ، ٧ 7
Blessed [is] the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
فَيَكُونُ كَشَجَرَةٍ مَغْرُوسَةٍ عِنْدَ الْمِيَاهِ، تَمُدُّ جُذُورَهَا إِلَى الْجَدْوَلِ، وَلا تَخْشَى اشْتِدَادَ الْحَرِّ الْمُقْبِلِ، إِذْ تَظَلُّ أَوْرَاقُهَا خَضْرَاءَ، وَلا يُفْزِعُهَا الْقَحْطُ لأَنَّهَا لَا تَكُفُّ عَنِ الإِثْمَارِ. ٨ 8
For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and [that] spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
الْقَلْبُ أَخْدَعُ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَهُوَ نَجِيسٌ، فَمَنْ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَفْهَمَهُ؟ ٩ 9
The heart [is] deceitful above all [things], and desperately wicked: who can know it?
أَنَا الرَّبُّ أَفْحَصُ الْقُلُوبَ وَأَمْتَحِنُ الأَفْكَارَ، لأُجَازِيَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ حَسَبَ طُرُقِهِ، وَبِمُقْتَضَى أَفْعَالِهِ». ١٠ 10
I the LORD search the heart, [I] try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, [and] according to the fruit of his doings.
مُكْتَنِزُ الْغِنَى مِنْ غَيْرِ حَقٍّ كَحَجَلَةٍ تَحْتَضِنُ وَتَفْقِسُ مَا لَمْ تَبِضْ، لأَنَّهُ سَرْعَانَ مَا يَفْقِدُهُ فِي مُنْتَصَفِ حَيَاتِهِ، وَيَضْحَى آخِرَ أَيَّامِهِ أَحْمَقَ. ١١ 11
[As] the partridge sitteth [on eggs], and hatcheth [them] not; [so] he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
الْعَرْشُ الْمَجِيدُ الْمُرْتَفِعُ مُنْذُ الْبَدْءِ هُوَ مَقَرُّ مَقْدِسِنَا. ١٢ 12
A glorious high throne from the beginning [is] the place of our sanctuary.
أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ رَجَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ: إِنَّ جَمِيعَ الَّذِينَ يَتَخَلُّونَ عَنْكَ يَلْحَقُ بِهِمِ الْخِزْيُ، وَالَّذِينَ يَنْصَرِفُونَ عَنْكَ (يَزُولُونَ) كَمَنْ كُتِبَتْ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ عَلَى التُّرَابِ لأَنَّهُمْ نَبَذُوا الرَّبَّ يَنْبُوعَ الْمِيَاهِ الْحَيَّةِ. ١٣ 13
O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, [and] they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
أَبْرِئْنِي يَا رَبُّ فَأَبْرَأَ. خَلِّصْنِي فَأَخْلُصَ، فَإِنَّكَ أَنْتَ تَسْبِحَتِي. ١٤ 14
Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou [art] my praise.
هَا هُمْ يَقُولُونَ لِي: «أَيْنَ قَضَاءُ الرَّبِّ؟ لِيَأْتِ». ١٥ 15
Behold, they say unto me, Where [is] the word of the LORD? let it come now.
أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَمْ أَتَهَرَّبْ مِنْ أَنْ أَكُونَ رَاعِياً لَدَيْكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَعْرِفُ أَنِّي لَمْ أَتَمَنَّ مَجِيءَ يَوْمِ الْمِحْنَةِ، وَتَعْلَمُ مَا نَطَقَتْ بِهِ شَفَتَايَ، لأَنَّ كُلَّ مَا صَدَرَ عَنْهُمَا كَانَ فِي مَحْضَرِكَ. ١٦ 16
As for me, I have not hastened from [being] a pastor to follow thee: neither have I desired the woeful day; thou knowest: that which came out of my lips was [right] before thee.
لَا تَكُنْ مَثَارَ رُعْبٍ لِي، فَأَنْتَ مَلاذِي فِي يَوْمِ الشَّرِّ. ١٧ 17
Be not a terror unto me: thou [art] my hope in the day of evil.
لِيَلْحَقِ الْخِزْيُ بِمُضْطَهِدِيَّ، وَلَكِنِ احْفَظْنِي مِنَ الْعَارِ. لِيَرْتَعِبُوا هُمْ، أَمَّا أَنَا فَلا تَدَعْنِي أَرْتَعِبُ. اجْعَلْ يَوْمَ الشَّرِّ يَحُلُّ بِهِمْ، وَاسْحَقْهُمْ سَحْقاً مُضَاعَفاً. ١٨ 18
Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
وَهَذَا مَا قَالَهُ الرَّبُّ لِي: «امْضِ وَقِفْ عِنْدَ بَوَّابَةِ أَبْنَاءِ الشَّعْبِ الَّتِي يَدْخُلُ مِنْهَا مُلُوكُ يَهُوذَا وَيَخْرُجُونَ، وَكَذَلِكَ عِنْدَ سَائِرِ بَوَّابَاتِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، ١٩ 19
Thus said the LORD unto me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;
وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: اسْمَعُوا كَلِمَةَ الرَّبِّ يَا مُلُوكَ يَهُوذَا وَشَعْبَهَا، وَيَا جَمِيعَ أَهْلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ الْمُجْتَازِينَ فِي هَذِهِ الْبَوَّابَاتِ. ٢٠ 20
And say unto them, Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: احْتَرِسُوا لأَنْفُسِكُمْ وَلا تَحْمِلُوا أَحْمَالاً فِي يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ وَلا تُدْخِلُوهَا فِي بَوَّابَاتِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، ٢١ 21
Thus saith the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring [it] in by the gates of Jerusalem;
وَلا تَنْقُلُوا حِمْلاً إِلَى خَارِجِ بُيُوتِكُمْ فِي يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ وَلا تَقُومُوا بِأَيِّ عَمَلٍ. إِنَّمَا قَدِّسُوا يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ كَمَا أَوْصَيْتُ آبَاءَكُمْ. ٢٢ 22
Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
مَعَ ذَلِكَ لَمْ يُطِيعُوا وَلَمْ يُصْغُوا، بَلْ قَسَّوْا قُلُوبَهُمْ لِئَلَّا يَسْمَعُوا وَلِئَلَّا يَقْبَلُوا التَّأْدِيبَ ٢٣ 23
But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
وَلَكِنْ إِنِ اسْتَمَعْتُمْ أَنْتُمْ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، وَلَمْ تُدْخِلُوا أَحْمَالاً فِي بَوَّابَاتِ أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ، بَلْ قَدَّسْتُمُوهُ وَلَمْ تَقُومُوا بِأَيِّ عَمَلٍ فِيهِ، ٢٤ 24
And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken unto me, saith the LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein;
عِنْدَئِذٍ يَدْخُلُ مِنْ بَوَّابَاتِ هَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةِ مُلُوكٌ وَرُؤَسَاءُ مِمَّنْ يَجْلِسُونَ عَلَى عَرْشِ دَاوُدَ، رَاكِبِينَ فِي عَرَبَاتٍ وَعَلَى صَهَوَاتِ الْجِيَادِ مَعَ رُؤَسَائِهِمْ، يُوَاكِبُهُمْ سُكَّانُ يَهُوذَا وَأَهْلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَتُعْمَرُ هَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ بِالسُّكَّانِ. ٢٥ 25
Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall remain for ever.
وَيُقْبِلُ النَّاسُ مِنْ مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا وَمِنْ حَوْلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَمِنْ أَرْضِ بِنْيَامِينَ وَمِنَ السَّهْلِ وَالْجَبَلِ، وَمِنَ النَّقَبِ، حَامِلِينَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ وَذَبَائِحَ وَتَقْدِمَاتٍ وَبَخُوراً مُعَطَّراً، وَقَرَابِينَ شُكْرٍ إِلَى هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ. ٢٦ 26
And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of praise, unto the house of the LORD.
وَلَكِنْ إِنْ لَمْ تَسْتَمِعُوا لِي لِتُقَدِّسُوا يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ، وَثَابَرْتُمْ عَلَى حَمْلِ أَثْقَالٍ فِيهِ لِتُدْخِلُوهَا مِنْ بَوَّابَاتِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَإِنِّي أُضْرِمُ بَوَّابَاتِهَا بِالنَّارِ فَتَلْتَهِمُ قُصُورَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، ولا تَنْطَفِئُ». ٢٧ 27
But if ye will not hearken unto me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
