< إرْمِيا 44 >
هَذِهِ هِيَ النُّبُوءَةُ الَّتِي أُوْحِيَ بِها إِلَى إِرْمِيَا عَنِ الْيَهُودِ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي مِصْرَ، النَّازِلِينَ فِي مَجْدَلَ وَفِي تَحَفَنْحِيسَ وَمَمْفِيسَ وَفِي مِنْطَقَةِ جَنُوبِ مِصْرَ. | ١ 1 |
The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who lived in the land of Egypt, who lived at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
«هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: قَدْ شَهِدْتُمْ كُلَّ مَا أَوْقَعْتُهُ مِنْ شَرٍّ بِأُورُشَلِيمَ وَبِكَافَّةِ مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا. هَا هِيَ الْيَوْمَ خَرِبَةٌ مَهْجُورَةٌ | ٢ 2 |
"Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: 'You have seen all the evil that I have brought on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah; and look, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwells in them,
لِشَرِّ أَهْلِهَا الَّذِي ارْتَكَبُوهُ لِيُثِيرُوا سُخْطِي، إِذْ ذَهَبُوا لِيُحْرِقُوا بَخُوراً وَيَعْبُدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى مِنَ الأَصْنَامِ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهَا هُمْ وَلا أَنْتُمْ وَلا آبَاؤُكُمْ. | ٣ 3 |
because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, to serve other gods, that they did not know, neither they, nor you, nor your fathers.
وَقَدْ أَرْسَلْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ مُنْذِراً مُنْذُ الْبَدْءِ جَمِيعَ عَبِيدِي الأَنْبِيَاءِ قَائِلاً: لَا تَقْتَرِفُوا رِجْساً مِثْلَ هَذَا لأَنِّي أَمْقُتُهُ، | ٤ 4 |
However I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, 'Oh, do not do this abominable thing that I hate.'
فَلَمْ يَرْتَدِعُوا وَلا سَمِعُوا لِيَتُوبُوا وَيَكُفُّوا عَنْ إِحْرَاقِ الْبَخُورِ لِتِلْكَ الأَصْنَامِ، | ٥ 5 |
But they did not listen, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense to other gods.
فَانْصَبَّ غَيْظِي وَحَنَقِي، وَأَشْعَلا مُدُنَ يَهُوذَا وَشَوَارِعَ أُورُشَلِيمَ حَتَّى أَصْبَحَتْ جَمِيعاً أَطْلالاً وَخَرَاباً كَمَا هِيَ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٦ 6 |
Therefore my wrath and my anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as it is this day.'
وَالآنَ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: لِمَاذَا تَرْتَكِبُونَ هَذَا الشَّرَّ الْعَظِيمَ فِي حَقِّ أَنْفُسِكُمْ، لِيَنْقَرِضَ مِنْكُمُ الرَّجُلُ وَالْمَرْأَةُ وَالطِّفْلُ وَالرَّضِيعُ مِنْ بَيْنِ شَعْبِ يَهُوذَا وَلا تَبْقَى مِنْكُمْ بَقِيَّةٌ؟ | ٧ 7 |
Therefore now thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Why do you commit great evil against your own souls, to cut off from yourselves man and woman, infant and nursing child out of the midst of Judah, to leave yourselves none remaining;
لِمَاذَا تُغِيظُونَنِي بِاقْتِرَافِ الإِثْمِ إِذْ تُحْرِقُونَ بَخُوراً لِآلِهَةِ أَصْنَامِ مِصْرَ الَّتِي هَاجَرْتُمْ إِلَيْهَا لِتَتَغَرَّبُوا فِيهَا، فَتَنْقَرِضُونَ وَتُصْبِحُونَ لَعْنَةً وَعَاراً بَيْنَ كُلِّ أُمَمِ الأَرْضِ؟ | ٨ 8 |
in that you provoke me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to live; that you may be cut off, and that you may be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
هَلْ نَسِيتُمْ شُرُورَ آبَائِكُمْ وَشُرُورَ مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا وَشُرُورَ نِسَائِهِمْ، وَشُرُورَكُمْ وَشُرُورَ نِسَائِكُمْ الَّتِي ارْتُكِبَتْ فِي أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا وَفِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ؟ | ٩ 9 |
Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives which they committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
إِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَتَذَلَّلُوا إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ وَلا اتَّقُوا وَلا سَلَكُوا فِي شَرِيعَتِي وَفَرَائِضِي الَّتِي سَنَنْتُهَا لَكُمْ وَلِآبَائِكُمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
They are not humbled even to this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.'
لِذَلِكَ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَا أَنَا أَتَرَصَّدُكُمْ لأُجَازِيَكُمْ شَرّاً لَا خَيْراً، لأَسْتَأْصِلَكُمْ مِنْ يَهُوذَا. | ١١ 11 |
Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Look, I will set my face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah.
وَآخُذُ بَقِيَّةَ يَهُوذَا الَّذِينَ وَطَّدُوا الْعَزْمَ عَلَى الرَّحِيلِ إِلَى مِصْرَ لِيَتَغَرَّبُوا فِيهَا، وَأُفْنِيهِمْ كُلَّهُمْ هُنَاكَ، فَيَهْلِكُونَ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ مِنْ صَغِيرِهِمْ إِلَى كَبِيرِهِمْ، فَيَمُوتُونَ وَيُصْبِحُونَ سُبَّةً وَدَهْشَةً وَلَعْنَةً وَعَاراً. | ١٢ 12 |
I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to live there, and they shall all be consumed; in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine; they shall die, from the least even to the greatest, by the sword and by the famine; and they shall be an object of horror, an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
وَأُعَاقِبُ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي مِصْرَ كَمَا عَاقَبْتُ أَهْلَ أُورُشَلِيمَ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ وَالْوَبَاءِ، | ١٣ 13 |
For I will punish those who dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;
فَلا يُفْلِتُ مِنْهُمْ نَاجٍ، وَلا يَسْلَمُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ بَقِيَّةِ يَهُوذَا الْمُرْتَحِلِينَ لِيَتَغَرَّبُوا هُنَاكَ فِي مِصْرَ، لِيَرْجِعَ إِلَى أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا الَّتِي يَتُوقُ لِلْعَوْدَةِ إِلَيْهَا وَالإِقَامَةِ فِيهَا، لأَنَّهُ لَنْ يَرْجِعَ إِلَيْهَا إِلا قِلَّةٌ مِنَ الطَّرِيدِينَ». | ١٤ 14 |
so that none of the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall escape or be left, to return into the land of Judah, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return save such as shall escape.'"
غَيْرَ أَنَّ جَمِيعَ الرِّجَالِ الَّذِينَ يَعْرِفُونَ أَنَّ نِسَاءَهُمْ يُحْرِقْنَ بَخُوراً لآلِهَةِ الأَصْنَامِ، وَكَذَلِكَ النِّسَاءَ الْحَاضِرَاتِ، وَسَائِرَ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي الْمِنْطَقَةِ الْجَنُوبِيَّةِ فِي مِصْرَ، وَهُمْ عَدَدٌ كَبِيرٌ قَالُوا لإِرْمِيَا: | ١٥ 15 |
Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, even all the people who lived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
«لَنْ نُطِيعَكَ فِي مَا خَاطَبْتَنَا بِهِ مِنْ كَلامٍ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ، | ١٦ 16 |
"As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the LORD, we will not listen to you.
بَلْ نَعْمَلَ بِمُقْتَضَى مَا تَعَهَّدْنَا بِهِ، فَنُحْرِقُ بَخُوراً لِمَلِكَةِ السَّمَاءِ وَنُقَرِّبُ لَهَا السَّكَائِبَ كَمَا سَبَقَ أَنْ فَعَلْنَا نَحْنُ وَآبَاؤُنَا وَمُلُوكُنَا وَرُؤَسَاؤُنَا فِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا وَفِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَكَانَتْ لَنَا وَفْرَةٌ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ وَتَمَتَّعْنَا بِالْخَيْرِ وَلَمْ يُصِبْنَا شَرٌّ. | ١٧ 17 |
But we will certainly perform every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our leaders, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then had we plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.
وَلَكِنْ مُنْذُ أَنْ أَهْمَلْنَا إِحْرَاقَ الْبَخُورِ لِمَلِكَةِ السَّمَاءِ وَتَقْرِيبَ السَّكَائِبِ لَهَا، افْتَقَرْنَا إِلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، وَفَنِينَا بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ». | ١٨ 18 |
But since we left off burning incense to the queen of heaven, and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine."
وَقَالَتِ النِّسَاءُ: «عِنْدَمَا أَحْرَقْنَا الْبَخُورَ لِمَلِكَةِ السَّمَاءِ وَقَرَّبْنَا لَهَا السَّكَائِبَ وَعَمِلْنَا أَقْرَاصاً مُمَاثِلَةً لِصُورَتِهَا، وَقَرَّبْنَا السَّكَائِبَ لَهَا، هَلْ فَعَلْنَا ذَلِكَ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمِ أَزْوَاجِنَا؟». | ١٩ 19 |
And the women said, "When we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?"
فَقَالَ إِرْمِيَا لِلْقَوْمِ مِنْ رِجَالٍ وَنِسَاءٍ وَسَائِرِ الشَّعْبِ الَّذِينَ أَجَابُوهُ بِهَذَا الْكَلامِ: | ٢٠ 20 |
Then Jeremiah said to all the people, to the men, and to the women, even to all the people who had given him an answer, saying,
«أَلَيْسَ مَا أَحْرَقْتُمُوهُ مِنْ بَخُورٍ فِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا وَفِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ أَنْتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُمْ وَمُلُوكُكُمْ وَرُؤَسَاؤُكُمْ وَسُكَّانُ الأَرْضِ، هُوَ الَّذِي ذَكَرَهُ الرَّبُّ وَخَطَرَ عَلَى بَالِهِ؟ | ٢١ 21 |
"The incense that you burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your leaders, and the people of the land. Did not the LORD remember them, and did not it come into his mind,
فَلَمْ يُطِقِ الرَّبُّ بَعْدُ تَحَمُّلَ مَا ارْتَكَبْتُمْ مِنْ شَرٍّ وَمَا اقْتَرَفْتُمْ مِنْ أَرْجَاسٍ، فَصَارَتْ أَرْضُكُمْ أَطْلالاً وَمَثَارَ دَهْشَةٍ وَلَعْنَةٍ وَمَهْجُورَةً كَالْعَهْدِ بِها فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
so that the LORD could no longer bear because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed? Therefore your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as it is this day.
إِنَّ الْبَلاءَ الَّذِي حَلَّ بِكُمْ كَمَا فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ هُوَ عِقَابٌ لَكُمْ عَلَى إحْرَاقِكُمُ الْبَخُورَ وَتَعَدِّيكُمْ عَلَى الرَّبِّ وَعِصْيَانِكُمْ لِصَوْتِهِ، وَعَدَمِ سُلُوكِكُمْ فِي شَرِيعَتِهِ وَفَرَائِضِهِ وَشَهَادَاتِهِ.» | ٢٣ 23 |
Because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil has happened to you, as it is this day."
وَالآنَ اسْمَعُوا قَضَاءَ الرَّبِّ يَا جَمِيعَ أَهْلِ يَهُوذَا الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي مِصْرَ: | ٢٤ 24 |
Moreover Jeremiah said to all the people, and to all the women, "Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah who are in the land of Egypt:
هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «قَدْ نَطَقْتُمْ بِأَفْوَاهِكُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَنِسَاؤُكُمْ، وَنَفَّذْتُمْ بِأَيْدِيكُمْ مَا نَطَقْتُمْ بِهِ قَائِلِينَ:’إِنَّنَا نَفِي بِنُذُورِنَا الَّتِي نَذَرْنَاهَا بِأَنْ نُحْرِقَ الْبَخُورَ لِمَلِكَةِ السَّمَاءِ، وَنُقَرِّبَ لَهَا السَّكَائِبَ‘، فَهَيَّا إِذاً أَوْفُوا نُذُورَكُمْ وَأَنْجِزُوهَا.» | ٢٥ 25 |
Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, 'You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and with your hands have fulfilled it, saying, "We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her": establish then your vows, and perform your vows.'
لِذَلِكَ اسْمَعُوا كَلِمَةَ الرَّبِّ يَا جَمِيعَ شَعْبِ يَهُوذَا الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي مِصْرَ: «هَا أَنَا قَدْ أَقْسَمْتُ بِاسْمِي الْعَظِيمِ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، أَنْ لَا يَتَرَدَّدَ اسْمِي مِنْ بَعْدُ عَلَى فَمِ أَحَدٍ مِنْ شَعْبِ يَهُوذَا فِي كَافَّةِ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ قَائِلاً:’حَيٌّ هُوَ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ‘. | ٢٦ 26 |
Therefore hear the word of the LORD, all Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt: 'Look, I have sworn by my great name,' says the LORD, 'that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, "As the LORD lives."
هَا أَنَا أَتَرَصَّدُهُمْ لأُوْقِعَ بِهِمْ شَرّاً لَا خَيْراً، فَيَهْلِكُ كُلُّ رِجَالِ يَهُوذَا الَّذِينَ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ حَتَّى يَتِمَّ اسْتِئْصَالُهُمْ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Look, I watch over them for disaster, and not for good; and all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until they are all gone.
وَتَرْجِعُ الْقِلَّةُ النَّاجِيَةُ مِنَ السَّيْفِ مِنْ مِصْرَ إِلَى أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا، فَتَعْلَمُ كُلُّ بَقِيَّةِ يَهُوذَا الَّذِينَ هَاجَرُوا إِلَى مِصْرَ لِيَتَغَرَّبُوا فِيهَا أَيَّ كَلامٍ يَتَحَقَّقُ: كَلامِي أَمْ كَلامُهُمْ؟» | ٢٨ 28 |
Those who escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, few in number; and all the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.
وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: «وَهَذِهِ لَكُمْ عَلامَةٌ أَنَّنِي أُعَاقِبُكُمْ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ بِالذَّاتِ، لِتُدْرِكُوا أَنَّ قَضَائِي عَلَيْكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ حَتْماً يَتِمُّ. | ٢٩ 29 |
This shall be the sign to you,' says the LORD, 'that I will punish you in this place, that you may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil':
هَا أَنَا أُسَلِّمُ فِرْعَوْنَ حَفْرَعَ مَلِكَ مِصْرَ إِلَى يَدِ أَعْدَائِهِ وَطَالِبِي نَفْسِهِ كَمَا أَسْلَمْتُ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا إِلَى يَدِ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ عَدُوِّهِ وَطَالِبِ نَفْسِهِ». | ٣٠ 30 |
Thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will give Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who was his enemy, and sought his life.'"
