إرْمِيا 20
| وَسَمِعَ الْكَاهِنُ فَشْحُورُ بْنُ إِمِّيرَ الَّذِي كَانَ النَّاظِرَ الأَوَّلَ عَلَى بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ إِرْمِيَا يَتَنَبَّأُ بِهَذِهِ الأُمُورِ، | ١ 1 |
And Pashhur son of Immer the priest—who [is] also overseer, leader in the house of YHWH—hears Jeremiah prophesying these things,
| فَضَرَبَ فَشْحُورُ إِرْمِيَا النَّبِيَّ وَزَجَّهُ فِي الْمِقْطَرَةِ الَّتِي بِبَابِ بِنْيَامِينَ الأَعْلَى الَّذِي عِنْدَ هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ. | ٢ 2 |
and Pashhur strikes Jeremiah the prophet, and puts him in the stocks that [are] by the Upper Gate of Benjamin, that [is] by the house of YHWH.
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّانِي عِنْدَمَا أَخْرَجَ فَشْحُورُ إِرْمِيَا مِنَ الْمِقْطَرَةِ، قَالَ لَهُ إِرْمِيَا: «إِنَّ الرَّبَّ لَمْ يَدْعُ اسْمَكَ فَشْحُورَ، بَلْ مَجُورَ مِسَّابِيبَ (أَيْ: رُعْباً مِنْ كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ). | ٣ 3 |
And it comes to pass on the next day, that Pashhur brings Jeremiah out from the stocks, and Jeremiah says to him, “YHWH has not called your name Pashhur, but Terror on Every Side.
| هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ:’هَا أَنَا أَجْعَلُكَ أَنْتَ وَجَمِيعَ أَحِبَّائِكَ عُرْضَةً لِلرُّعْبِ فَيَتَسَاقَطُونَ بِحَدِّ سُيُوفِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ عَلَى مَرْأَى مِنْكَ، وَأُسْلِمُ كُلَّ أَهْلِ يَهُوذَا لِيَدِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ فَيُجْلِيهِمْ إِلَى بَابِلَ وَيَذْبَحُهُمْ بِالسَّيْفِ. | ٤ 4 |
For thus said YHWH: Behold, I am making you for a fear to yourself, And to all loving you, And they have fallen by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes are beholding, And all Judah I give into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he has removed them to Babylon, And he has struck them with the sword.
| وَأَدْفَعُ كُلَّ ثَرْوَةِ هَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةِ، وَكُلَّ نِتَاجِهَا وَنَفَائِسِهَا، وَكُلَّ كُنُوزِ مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا إِلَى يَدِ أَعْدَائِهَا، فَيَغْنَمُونَهَا وَيَسْتَوْلُونَ عَلَيْهَا وَيَنْقُلُونَهَا مَعَهُمْ إِلَى بَابِلَ. | ٥ 5 |
And I have given all the strength of this city, And all its labor, and all its precious things, Indeed, I give all the treasures of the kings of Judah into the hand of their enemies, And they have spoiled them, and taken them, And have brought them into Babylon.
| أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا فَشْحُورُ وَجَمِيعُ الْمُقِيمِينَ مَعَكَ فِي بَيْتِكَ فَتَذْهَبُونَ إِلَى الأَسْرِ فِي بَابِلَ حَيْثُ تَمُوتُ وَتُدْفَنُ هُنَاكَ أَنْتَ وَسَائِرُ أَحِبَّائِكَ الَّذِينَ تَنَبَّأْتَ لَهُمْ بِالأَكَاذِيبِ.‘» | ٦ 6 |
And you, Pashhur, and all dwelling in your house, Go into captivity. And you enter Babylon, And there you die, and there you are buried, You and all loving you, To whom you have prophesied falsely.”
| يَا رَبُّ قَدْ أَقْنَعْتَنِي فَاقْتَنَعْتُ، أَنْتَ أَقْوَى مِنِّي فَغَلَبْتَ، فَأَصْبَحْتُ مَثَارَ سُخْرِيَةٍ طَوَالَ النَّهَارِ. كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ يَسْتَهْزِئُ بِي. | ٧ 7 |
You have persuaded me, O YHWH, and I am persuaded; You have hardened me, and prevail, I have been for a laughter all the day, Everyone is mocking at me,
| لأَنِّي كُلَّمَا تَكَلَّمْتُ أَصْرُخُ مُنَدِّداً، وَأُنَادِي: «ظُلْمٌ وَاغْتِصَابٌ» فَجَلَبَتْ عَلَيَّ كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ الاحْتِقَارَ وَالْعَارَ طَوَالَ النَّهَارِ. | ٨ 8 |
Because from the time I speak I cry out, I shout, “Violence and destruction!” For the word of YHWH has been to me For reproach and for derision all the day.
| إِنْ قُلْتُ: «سَأَكُفُّ عَنْ ذِكْرِهِ وَلا أَتَكَلَّمُ بِاسْمِهِ بَعْدُ» صَارَ كَلامُهُ فِي قَلْبِي كَنَارٍ مُحْرِقَةٍ مَحْصُورَةٍ فِي عِظَامِي، فَأَعْيَانِي كِتْمَانُهُ وَعَجَزْتُ عَنْ كَبْتِهِ. | ٩ 9 |
And I said, “I do not mention Him, Nor do I speak anymore in His Name,” And it has been in my heart As a burning fire shut up in my bones, And I have been weary of containing, And I am not able.
| لأَنِّي سَمِعْتُ نَفَثَاتِ تَهْدِيدٍ مِنْ كَثِيرِينَ، وَأَحَاطَ بِي رُعْبٌ مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ. يَقُولُونَ: «اشْتَكُوا عَلَيْهِ فَنَشْتَكِيَ عَلَيْهِ»، حَتَّى جَمِيعُ أَصْدِقَائِي الْحَمِيمِينَ يَرْقُبُونَ كَبْوَتِي قَائِلِينَ: «لَعَلَّهُ يَتَعَثَّرُ فَنَتَغَلَّبَ عَلَيْهِ وَنَنْتَقِمَ مِنْهُ». | ١٠ 10 |
For I have heard the evil report of many, “Fear [is] all around!” “Declare, and we declare it!” All my allies are watching [for] my halting, “Perhaps he is enticed, and we prevail over him, And we take our vengeance on him.”
| لَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ مَعِي كَمُحَارِبٍ جَبَّارٍ، لِهَذَا يَعْثُرُ كُلُّ مُضْطَهِدِيَّ وَلا يَظْفَرُونَ بِي. يَلْحَقُ بِهِمْ عَارٌ عَظِيمٌ لأَنَّهُمْ لَا يُفْلِحُونَ، وَيَظَلُّ خِزْيُهُمْ مَذْكُوراً إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ١١ 11 |
And YHWH [is] with me, as a mighty, awesome One, Therefore my persecutors stumble and do not prevail, They have been exceedingly ashamed, For they have not acted wisely, Continuous confusion is not forgotten.
| أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ مُخْتَبِرُ الصِّدِّيقِ وَالْمُطَّلِعُ عَلَى سَرَائِرِ النُّفُوسِ، دَعْنِي أَشْهَدُ انْتِقَامَكَ مِنْهُمْ لأَنِّي إِلَيْكَ فَوَّضْتُ قَضِيَّتِي. | ١٢ 12 |
And, O YHWH of Hosts, trier of the righteous, Beholder of reins and heart, I see Your vengeance on them, For I have revealed my cause to you.
| اشْدُوا لِلرَّبِّ وَسَبِّحُوهُ، لأَنَّهُ أَنْقَذَ نَفْسَ الْمِسْكِينِ مِنْ قَبْضَةِ فَاعِلِي الإِثْمِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Sing to YHWH, praise YHWH, For He has delivered the soul of the needy From the hand of evildoers.
| لِيَكُنْ مَلْعُوناً ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي وُلِدْتُ فِيهِ، وَلْيَخْلُ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي أَنْجَبَتْنِي فِيهِ أُمِّي مِنْ كُلِّ بَرَكَةٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
Cursed [is] the day in which I was born, The day that my mother bore me, Let it not be blessed!
| لِيَكُنْ مَلْعُوناً ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي بَشَّرَ أَبِي قَائِلاً: قَدْ وُلِدَ لَكَ ابْنٌ فَجَعَلَ قَلْبَهُ يَفِيضُ بِالْفَرَحِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Cursed [is] the man who bore tidings [to] my father, Saying, “A male child has been born to you,” Making him very glad!
| لِيُصْبِحْ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ كَالْمُدُنِ الَّتِي قَلَبَهَا الرَّبُّ مِنَ غَيْرِ رِفْقٍ، وَليَسْمَعْ صُرَاخَ الْمَعَارِكِ فِي الصَّبَاحِ، وَضَجِيجَ جَلَبَتِهَا عِنْدَ الظَّهِيرَةِ. | ١٦ 16 |
Then that man has been as the cities, That YHWH overthrew, and did not relent, And he has heard a cry in the morning, And a shout at noontime.
| لِيَكُنْ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ مَلْعَوناً لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَقْتُلْنِي مِنَ الرَّحِمِ، فَتَضْحَى أُمِّي قَبْراً لِي، وَتَظَلُّ حُبْلَى بِي إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Because he has not put me to death from the womb, And my mother is to me—my grave, And her womb [is] a perpetual pregnancy.
| لِمَاذَا خَرَجْتُ مِنَ الرَّحِمِ لأُقَاسِيَ التَّعَبَ وَالأَوْجَاعَ، وَأُفْنِيَ أَيَّامِي بِالْخِزْيِ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
Why [is] this? I have come out from the womb To see labor and sorrow, Indeed, my days are consumed in shame!
