إرْمِيا 51
| وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أُثِيرُ عَلَى بَابِلَ وَعَلَى الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي دِيَارِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ رِيحاً مُهْلِكَةً. | ١ 1 |
Thus says the LORD: "Look, I will raise up against Babylon, and against those who dwell in Lebkamai, a destroying wind.
| وَأَبْعَثُ إِلَى بَابِلَ مُذَرِّينَ يُذَرُّونَهَا، وَيَجْعَلُونَ أَرْضَهَا قَفْراً، وَيُهَاجِمُونَهَا مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ فِي يَوْمِ بَلِيَّتِهَا. | ٢ 2 |
I will send to Babylon foreigners who shall winnow her; and they shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be against her around.
| لِيُوَتِّرِ الرَّامِي قَوْسَهُ وَلْيَتَدَجَّجْ بِسِلاحِهِ. لَا تَعْفُوا عَنْ شُبَّانِهَا، بَلْ أَبِيدُوا كُلَّ جَيْشِهَا إِبَادَةً. | ٣ 3 |
Do not let him who bends the bow bend it; nor not let him rise up in his armor. And do not spare her young men; utterly destroy all her army.
| يَتَسَاقَطُ الْقَتْلَى فِي أَرْضِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، وَالْجَرْحَى فِي شَوَارِعِهَا، | ٤ 4 |
They shall fall down slain in the land of the Chaldeans, and thrust through in her streets.
| لأَنَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا لَمْ يُهْمِلْهُمَا الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ وَإِنْ تَكُنْ أَرْضُهُمَا تَفِيضُ بِالإِثْمِ ضِدَّ قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٥ 5 |
"For Israel is not forsaken, nor Judah, of his God, of the LORD of hosts; though their land is full of guilt against the Holy One of Israel.
| اهْرُبُوا مِنْ وَسَطِ بَابِلَ، وَلْيَنْجُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ بِحَيَاتِهِ. لَا تَبِيدُوا مِنْ جَرَّاءِ إِثْمِهَا، لأَنَّ هَذَا هُوَ وَقْتُ انْتِقَامِ الرَّبِّ، وَمَوْعِدُ مُجَازَاتِهَا. | ٦ 6 |
Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and save every man his life; do not be cut off in her iniquity: for it is the time of the LORD's vengeance; he will render to her a recompense.
| كَانَتْ بَابِلُ كَأْسَ ذَهَبٍ فِي يَدِ اللهِ، فَسَكِرَتِ الأَرْضُ قَاطِبَةً. تَجَرَّعَتِ الأُمَمُ مِنْ خَمْرِهَا، لِذَلِكَ جُنَّتِ الشُّعُوبُ. | ٧ 7 |
Babylon has been a golden cup in the LORD's hand, who made all the earth drunk: the nations have drunk of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.
| فَجْأَةً سَقَطَتْ بَابِلُ وَتَحَطَّمَتْ، فَوَلْوِلُوا عَلَيْهَا، خُذُوا بَلَسَاناً لِجُرْحِهَا لَعَلَّهَا تَبْرَأُ. | ٨ 8 |
Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: wail for her; take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.
| قُمْنَا بِمُدَاوَاةِ بَابِلَ، وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَنْجَعْ فِيهَا عِلاجٌ. اهْجُرُوهَا وَلْيَمْضِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَّا إِلَى أَرْضِهِ، لأَنَّ قَضَاءَهَا قَدْ بَلَغَ عَنَانَ السَّمَاءِ، وَتَصَاعَدَ حَتَّى ارْتَفَعَ إِلَى الْغُيُومِ. | ٩ 9 |
'We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go everyone into his own country; for her judgment reaches to heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.'
| قَدْ أَظْهَرَ الرَّبُّ بِرَّنَا، فَتَعَالَوْا لِنُذِيعَ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ مَا صَنَعَهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا. | ١٠ 10 |
'The LORD has brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.'
| سُنُّوا السِّهَامَ، وَتَقَلَّدُوا الأَتْرَاسَ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ أَثَارَ رُوحَ مُلُوكِ الْمَادِيِّينَ، إِذْ وَطَّدَ الْعَزْمَ عَلَى إِهْلاكِ بَابِلَ، لأَنَّ هَذَا هُوَ انْتِقَامُ الرَّبِّ، وَالثَّأْرُ لِهَيْكَلِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
Make sharp the arrows; hold firm the shields: the LORD has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes; because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it: for it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
| انْصِبُوا رَايَةً عَلَى أَسْوَارِ بَابِلَ. شَدِّدُوا الْحِرَاسَةَ. أَقِيمُوا الأَرْصَادَ. أَعِدُّوا الْكَمَائِنَ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ خَطَّطَ وَأَنْجَزَ مَا قَضَى بِهِ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَابِلَ. | ١٢ 12 |
Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set the watchmen, prepare the ambushes; for the LORD has both purposed and done that which he spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
| أَيَّتُهَا السَّاكِنَةُ إِلَى جُوَارِ الْمِيَاهِ الْغَزِيرَةِ، ذَاتُ الْكُنُوزِ الْوَفِيرَةِ، إِنَّ نِهَايَتَكِ قَدْ أَزِفَتْ، وَحَانَ مَوْعِدُ اقْتِلاعِكِ. | ١٣ 13 |
You who dwell on many waters, abundant in treasures, your end has come, the measure of your covetousness.
| قَدْ أَقْسَمَ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ بِذَاتِهِ قَائِلاً: لَأَمْلأَنَّكِ أُنَاساً كَالْغَوْغَاءِ فَتَعْلُو جَلَبَتُهُمْ عَلَيْكِ. | ١٤ 14 |
The LORD of hosts has sworn by himself, saying, "Surely I will fill you with men, as with the canker worm; and they shall lift up a shout against you."
| هُوَ الَّذِي صَنَعَ الأَرْضَ بِقُدْرَتِهِ، وَأَسَّسَ الدُّنْيَا بِحِكْمَتِهِ، وَمَدَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ بِفِطْنَتِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
He has made the earth by his power, he has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding has he stretched out the heavens.
| مَا إِنْ يَنْطِقُ بِصَوْتِهِ حَتَّى تَتَجَمَّعَ غِمَارُ الْمِيَاهِ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، وَتَصْعَدَ السُّحُبُ مِنْ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ، وَيَجْعَلُ لِلْمَطَرِ بُرُوقاً، وَيُطْلِقُ الرِّيحَ مِنْ خَزَائِنِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
When he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the farthest parts of the earth; he makes lightning for the rain, and brings forth the wind out of his treasuries.
| كُلُّ امْرِئٍ خَامِلٌ وَعَدِيمُ الْمَعْرِفَةِ، وَكُلُّ صَائِغٍ خَزِيَ مِنْ تِمْثَالِهِ، لأَنَّ صَنَمَهُ الْمَسْبُوكَ كَاذِبٌ وَلا حَيَاةَ فِيهِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Every man has become brutish without knowledge. Every goldsmith is disappointed by his image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
| جَمِيعُ الأَصْنَامِ بَاطِلَةٌ وَصَنْعَةُ ضَلالٍ، وَفِي زَمَنِ عِقَابِهَا تَبِيدُ. | ١٨ 18 |
They are vanity, a work of delusion: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
| أَمَّا نَصِيبُ يَعْقُوبَ فَلَيْسَ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ الأَوْثَانِ، بَلْ هُوَ جَابِلُ كُلِّ الأَشْيَاءِ. وَشَعْبُ إِسْرَائِيلَ هُوَ سِبْطُ مِيرَاثِهِ، وَاسْمُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ. | ١٩ 19 |
The portion of Jacob is not like these, for he is the maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance; the LORD of hosts is his name.
| أَنْتَ فَأْسُ مَعْرَكَتِي وَآلَةُ حَرْبِي. بِكَ أُمَزِّقُ الأُمَمَ إِرْباً وَأُحَطِّمُ مَمَالِكَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
"You are my battle axe and weapons of war: and with you will I break in pieces the nations; and with you will I destroy kingdoms;
| بِكَ أَجْعَلُ الْفَرَسَ وَفَارِسَهَا أَشْلاءَ، وَأُهَشِّمُ الْمَرْكَبَةَ وَرَاكِبَهَا. | ٢١ 21 |
and with you will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with you will I break in pieces the chariot and its rider.
| بِكَ أُحَطِّمُ الرَّجُلَ وَالْمَرْأَةَ، وَالشَّيْخَ وَالْفَتَى، وَالشَّابَ وَالْعَذْرَاءَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And with you will I break in pieces man and woman; and with you will I break in pieces the old man and the youth; and with you will I break in pieces the young man and the virgin;
| بِكَ أَسْحَقُ الرَّاعِي وَقَطِيعَهُ، وَالْحَارِثَ وَفَدَّانَهُ، وَالْحُكَّامَ وَالْوُلاةَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
and with you will I break in pieces the shepherd and his flock; and with you will I break in pieces the farmer and his yoke; and with you will I break in pieces governors and deputies.
| سَأُجَازِي بَابِلَ وَسَائِرَ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرِّهِمِ الَّذِي ارْتَكَبُوهُ فِي حَقِّ صِهْيَوْنَ، عَلَى مَرْأَى مِنْكُمْ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٢٤ 24 |
I will render to Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight," says the LORD.
| هَا أَنَا أَنْقَلِبُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الْجَبَلُ الْمُخَرِّبُ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. أَنْتَ تُفْسِدُ كُلَّ الأَرْضِ، لِذَلِكَ أَمُدُّ يَدِي عَلَيْكَ وَأُدَحْرِجُكَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الصُّخُورِ، وَأَجْعَلُكَ جَبَلاً مُحْتَرِقاً. | ٢٥ 25 |
"Look, I am against you, destroying mountain," says the LORD, "which destroys all the earth; and I will stretch out my hand on you, and roll you down from the rocks, and will make you a burnt mountain.
| فَلا يُقْطَعُ مِنْكَ حَجَرٌ لِزَاوِيَةٍ، وَلا حَجَرٌ يُوْضَعُ كَأَسَاسٍ، بَلْ تَكُونُ خَرَاباً أَبَدِيًّا، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٢٦ 26 |
They shall not take of you a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but you shall be desolate for ever," says the LORD.
| انْصِبُوا رَايَةً فِي الأَرْضِ. انْفُخُوا فِي الْبُوقِ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ. أَثِيرُوا عَلَيْهَا الأُمَمَ لِقِتَالِهَا، وَأَعِدُّوا عَلَيْهَا مَمَالِكَ أَرَارَاطَ وَمِنِّي وَأَشْكَنَازَ. أَقِيمُوا عَلَيْهَا قَائِداً. اجْعَلُوا الْخَيْلَ تَزْحَفُ عَلَيْهَا كَجَحَافِلِ الْجَرَادِ الشَّرِسَةِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Set up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz: appoint a marshal against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough canker worm.
| أَثِيرُوا عَلَيْهَا الأُمَمَ وَمُلُوكَ المَادِيِّينَ وَكُلَّ حُكَّامِهِمْ وَوُلاتِهِمْ وَسَائِرَ الدِّيَارِ الَّتِي يَحْكُمُونَهَا. | ٢٨ 28 |
Prepare against her the nations, the kings of the Medes, its governors, and all its deputies, and all the land of their dominion.
| الأَرْضُ تَرْجُفُ وَتَقْشَعِرُّ، لأَنَّ قَضَاءَ الرَّبِّ عَلَى بَابِلَ يَتِمُّ، لِيَجْعَلَ أَرْضَ بَابِلَ خَرَاباً وَقَفْراً. | ٢٩ 29 |
The land trembles and is in pain; for the purposes of the LORD against Babylon do stand, to make the land of Babylon a desolation, without inhabitant.
| قَدْ أَحْجَمَ مُحَارِبُو بَابِلَ الْجَبَابِرَةُ عَنِ الْقِتَالِ، وَاعْتَصَمُوا فِي مَعَاقِلِهِمْ. خَارَتْ شَجَاعَتُهُمْ، وَصَارُوا كَالنِّسَاءِ. احْتَرَقَتْ مَسَاكِنُ بَابِلَ وَتَحَطَّمَتْ مَزَالِيجُهَا. | ٣٠ 30 |
The mighty men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they remain in their strongholds; their might has failed; they are become as women: her dwelling places are set on fire; her bars are broken.
| يَرْكُضُ عَدَّاءٌ لِمُلاقَاةِ عَدَّاءٍ آخَرَ. وَيُسْرِعُ مُخْبِرٌ لِلِقَاءِ مُخْبِرٍ لِيُبَلِّغَ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ أَنَّ مَدِينَتَهُ قَدْ تَمَّ الاسْتِيلاءُ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ. | ٣١ 31 |
One runner will run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken on every quarter:
| قَدْ سَقَطَتِ الْمَعَابِرُ وَأُحْرِقَتْ أَجَمَاتُ الْقَصَبِ بِالنَّارِ وَاعْتَرَى الذُّعْرُ الْمُحَارِبِينَ، | ٣٢ 32 |
and the passages are seized, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are frightened.
| لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: إِنَّ أَهْلَ بَابِلَ كَالْبَيْدَرِ، وَقَدْ حَانَ أَوَانُ دَرْسِ حِنْطَتِهِ. وَبَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ يَأْزَفُ مَوْعِدُ حَصَادِهِمْ. | ٣٣ 33 |
For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor at the time when it is trodden; yet a little while, and the time of harvest shall come for her.
| يَقُولُ الْمَسْبِيُّونَ: «قَدِ افْتَرَسَنَا نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ وَسَحَقَنَا وَجَعَلَنَا إِنَاءً فَارِغاً. ابْتَلَعَنَا كَتِنِّينٍ، وَمَلأَ جَوْفَهُ مِنْ أَطَايِبِنَا، ثُمَّ لَفَظَنَا مِنْ فَمِهِ. | ٣٤ 34 |
'Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has devoured me, he has crushed me, he has made me an empty vessel, he has, like a monster, swallowed me up, he has filled his maw with my delicacies; he has cast me out.
| يَقُولُ أَهْلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ: لِيَحُلَّ بِبَابِلَ مَا أَصَابَنَا وَأَصَابَ لُحُومَنَا مِنْ ظُلْمٍ. وَتَقُولُ أُورُشَلِيمُ: دَمِي عَلَى أَهْلِ أَرْضِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ. | ٣٥ 35 |
The violence done to me and to my flesh be on Babylon,' shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and, 'My blood be on the inhabitants of Chaldea,' shall Jerusalem say.
| لِذَلِكَ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: هَا أَنَا أُدَافِعُ عَنْ دَعْوَاكِ وَأَنْتَقِمُ لَكِ، فَأُجَفِّفُ بَحْرَ بَابِلَ وَيَنَابِيعَهَا، | ٣٦ 36 |
Therefore thus says the LORD: "Look, I will plead your cause, and take vengeance for you; and I will dry up her sea, and make her fountain dry.
| فَتَصِيرُ بَابِلُ رُكَاماً وَمَأْوَى لِبَنَاتِ آوَى، وَمَثَارَ دَهْشَةٍ وَصَفِيرٍ وَأَرْضاً مُوْحِشَةً. | ٣٧ 37 |
Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling place for jackals, an astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.
| إِنَّهُمْ يَزْأَرُونَ كَالأُسُودِ وَيُزَمْجِرُونَ كَالأَشْبَالِ. | ٣٨ 38 |
They shall roar together like young lions; they shall growl as lions' cubs.
| عِنْدَ شَبَعِهِمْ أُعِدُّ لَهُمْ مَأْدُبَةً وَأُسْكِرُهُمْ حَتَّى تَأْخُذَهُمُ النَّشْوَةُ فَيَنَامُونَ نَوْماً أَبَدِيًّا لَا يَقْظَةَ مِنْهُ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٣٩ 39 |
When they are heated, I will make their feast, and I will make them drunk, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake," says the LORD.
| وَأُحْضِرُهُمْ كَالْحُمْلانِ لِلذَّبْحِ وَكَالْكِبَاشِ وَالتُّيُوسِ. | ٤٠ 40 |
"I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with male goats.
| كَيْفَ اسْتُوْلِيَ عَلَى بَابِلَ! كَيْفَ سَقَطَتْ فَخْرُ كُلِّ الأَرْضِ! كَيْفَ صَارَتْ بَابِلُ مَثَارَ دَهْشَةٍ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ! | ٤١ 41 |
How is Sheshach taken, and the praise of the whole earth seized. How is Babylon become a desolation among the nations.
| قَدْ طَغَى الْبَحْرُ عَلَى بَابِلَ فَغَمَرَهَا بِأَمْوَاجِهِ الْهَائِجَةِ، | ٤٢ 42 |
The sea has come up on Babylon; she is covered with the multitude of its waves.
| وَأَصْبَحَتْ مُدُنُهَا مُوْحِشَةً وَأَرْضَ قَفْرٍ وَصَحْرَاءَ، أَرْضاً لَا يَأْوِي إِلَيْهَا أَحَدٌ وَلا يَجْتَازُ بِها إِنْسَانٌ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Her cities are become a desolation, a dry land, and a desert, a land in which no man dwells, neither does any son of man pass thereby.
| وَأُعَاقِبُ الصَّنَمَ بِيلَ فِي بَابِلَ، وَأَسْتَخْرِجُ مِنْ فَمِهِ مَا ابْتَلَعَهُ، فَتَكُفُّ الأُمَمُ عَنِ التَّوَافُدِ إِلَيْهِ، وَيَنْهَدِمُ أَيْضاً سُورُ بَابِلَ. | ٤٤ 44 |
I will execute judgment on Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up; and the nations shall not flow any more to him: yes, the wall of Babylon shall fall."
| اخْرُجُوا مِنْ وَسَطِهَا يَا شَعْبِي وَلْيَنْجُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ بِحَيَاتِهِ هَرَباً مِنِ احْتِدَامِ غَضَبِ الرَّبِّ. | ٤٥ 45 |
"My people, go away from the midst of her, and save yourselves every man from the fierce anger of the LORD.
| لَا يَخُرْ قَلْبُكُمْ وَلا تَفْزَعُوا مِمَّا يَشِيعُ فِي الدِّيَارِ مِنْ أَنْبَاءَ، إِذْ تَرُوجُ شَائِعَةٌ فِي هَذِهِ السَّنَةِ وَأُخْرَى فِي السَّنَةِ التَّالِيَةِ، وَيَسُودُ الْعُنْفُ الأَرْضَ، وَيَقُومُ مُتَسَلِّطٌ عَلَى مُتَسَلِّطٍ. | ٤٦ 46 |
Do not let your heart faint, neither fear for the news that shall be heard in the land; for news shall come one year, and after that in another year shall come news, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
| لِذَلِكَ هَا أَيَّامٌ مُقْبِلَةٌ أُعَاقِبُ فِيهَا أَصْنَامَ بَابِلَ وَيَلْحَقُ الْعَارُ بِأَرْضِهَا كُلِّهَا، وَيَتَسَاقَطُ قَتْلاهَا فِي وَسَطِهَا. | ٤٧ 47 |
Therefore look, the days come, that I will execute judgment on the engraved images of Babylon; and her whole land shall be confounded; and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ تَتَغَنَّى بِسُقُوطِ بَابِلَ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالأَرْضُ وَكُلُّ مَا فِيهَا، لأَنَّ الْمُدَمِّرِينَ يَتَقَاطَرُونَ عَلَيْهَا مِنَ الشِّمَالِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٤٨ 48 |
Then the heavens and the earth, and all that is in them, shall sing for joy over Babylon; for the destroyers shall come to her from the north," says the LORD.
| كَمَا صَرَعَتْ بَابِلُ قَتْلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، هَكَذَا يُصْرَعُ قَتْلَى بَابِلَ فِي كُلِّ الأَرْض. | ٤٩ 49 |
As Babylon has caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the land.
| يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاجُونَ مِنَ السَّيْفِ، اهْرُبُوا وَلا تَقِفُوا، اذْكُرُوا الرَّبَّ فِي مَكَانِكُمُ الْبَعِيدِ، وَلا تَبْرَحْ أُورُشَلِيمُ مِنْ خَوَاطِرِكُمْ. | ٥٠ 50 |
You who have escaped the sword, go, do not stand still; remember the LORD from afar, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
| قَدْ لَحِقَنَا الْخِزْيُ لأَنَّنَا اسْتَمَعْنَا لِلإِهَانَةِ، فَكَسَا الْخَجَلُ وُجُوهَنَا، إِذِ انْتَهَكَ الْغُرَبَاءُ مَقَادِسَ هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ. | ٥١ 51 |
"We are confounded, because we have heard reproach; confusion has covered our faces: for strangers have come into the sanctuaries of the LORD's house."
| لِذَلِكَ هَا أَيَّامٌ مُقْبِلَةٌ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، أُنَفِّذُ فِيهَا قَضَائِي عَلَى أَصْنَامِ بَابِلَ، وَيَئِنُّ جَرْحَاهَا فِي كُلِّ دِيَارِهَا. | ٥٢ 52 |
"Therefore look, the days come," says the LORD, "that I will execute judgment on her engraved images; and through all her land the wounded shall groan.
| وَحَتَّى لَوِ ارْتَفَعَتْ بَابِلُ فَبَلَغَتِ السَّمَاءَ، وَحَتَّى لَوْ حَصَّنَتْ مَعَاقِلَهَا الشَّامِخَةَ، فَإِنَّ الْمُدَمِّرِينَ يَنْقَضُّونَ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ عِنْدِي، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٥٣ 53 |
Though Babylon should mount up to the sky, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall destroyers come to her," says the LORD.
| هَا صَوْتُ صُرَاخٍ يَتَرَدَّدُ فِي بَابِلَ، صَوْتُ جَلَبَةِ دَمَارٍ عَظِيمٍ مِنْ أَرْضِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، | ٥٤ 54 |
"The sound of a cry from Babylon, and of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans."
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ خَرَّبَ بَابِلَ، وَأَخْرَسَ جَلَبَتَهَا الْعَظِيمَةَ، إِذْ طَغَتْ عَلَيْهَا جَحَافِلُ أَعْدَائِهَا كَمِيَاهٍ عَجَّاجَةٍ، وَعَلا ضَجِيجُ أَصْوَاتِهِمْ. | ٥٥ 55 |
For the LORD lays Babylon waste, and destroys out of her the great voice; and their waves roar like many waters; the noise of their voice is uttered:
| لأَنَّ الْمُدَمِّرَ قَدِ انْقَضَّ عَلَى بَابِلَ وَأَسَرَ مُحَارِبِيهَا، وَتَكَسَّرَتْ كُلُّ قِسِيِّهَا، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهُ مُجَازَاةٍ، وَهُوَ حَتْماً يُحَاسِبُهَا. | ٥٦ 56 |
for the destroyer has come on her, even on Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, their bows are broken in pieces; for the LORD is a God of recompenses, he will surely requite.
| إِنِّي أُسْكِرُ رُؤَسَاءَهَا وَحُكَمَاءَهَا وَمُحَارِبِيهَا، فَيَنَامُونَ نَوْماً أَبَدِيًّا لَا يَقْظَةَ مِنْهُ، يَقُولُ الْمَلِكُ، الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ اسْمُهُ. | ٥٧ 57 |
"I will make drunk her officials and her wise men, her governors and her deputies, and her mighty men; and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake up," says the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
| وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: إِنَّ سُورَ بَابِلَ الْعَرِيضَ يُقَوَّضُ وَيُسَوَّى بِالأَرْضِ، وَبَوَّابَاتِهَا الْعَالِيَةَ تَحْتَرِقُ بِالنَّارِ، وَيَذْهَبُ تَعَبُ الشُّعُوبِ بَاطِلاً، وَيَكُونُ مَصِيرُ جَهْدِ الأُمَمِ لِلنَّارِ». | ٥٨ 58 |
Thus says the LORD of hosts: "The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly overthrown, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the peoples shall labor for vanity, and the nations for the fire; and they shall be weary."
| هَذِهِ هِيَ النُّبُوءَةُ الَّتِي أَوْدَعَهَا إِرْمِيَا النَّبِيُّ سَرَايَا بْنَ نِيرِيَّا بْنِ مَحْسِيَّا، عِنْدَمَا رَافَقَ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا إِلَى بَابِلَ فِي السَّنَةِ الرَّابِعَةِ لِحُكْمِهِ. وَكَانَ سَرَايَا آنَئِذٍ رَئِيسَ الْمُعَسْكَرِ. | ٥٩ 59 |
The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah to Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. Now Seraiah was chief quartermaster.
| وَكَانَ إِرْمِيَا قَدْ دَوَّنَ فِي كِتَابٍ وَاحِدٍ جَمِيعَ الْكَوَارِثِ الَّتِي سَتُبْتَلَى بِها بَابِلُ، أَيْ جَمِيعَ النُّبُوءَاتِ الْمُدَوَّنَةِ عَنْ بَابِلَ. | ٦٠ 60 |
Jeremiah wrote in a scroll all the evil that should come on Babylon, even all these words that are written concerning Babylon.
| وَقَالَ إِرْمِيَا لِسَرَايَا: «حَالَمَا تَصِلُ إِلَى بَابِلَ، اعْمَلْ عَلَى تِلاوَةِ جَمِيعِ هَذِهِ النُّبُوءَاتِ. | ٦١ 61 |
Jeremiah said to Seraiah, "When you come to Babylon, then see that you read all these words,
| وَقُلْ: أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ قَدْ قَضَيْتَ عَلَى هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ بِالانْقِرَاضِ، فَلا يَسْكُنُ فِيهِ أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ، بَلْ يُصْبِحُ خَرَاباً أَبَدِيًّا. | ٦٢ 62 |
and say, 'LORD, you have spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that none shall dwell in it, neither man nor animal, but that it shall be desolate forever.'
| وَمَتَى فَرَغْتَ مِنْ تِلاوَةِ هَذَا الْكِتَابِ، ارْبُطْ بِهِ حَجَراً وَاطْرَحْهُ فِي وَسَطِ الْفُرَاتِ. | ٦٣ 63 |
It shall be, when you have made an end of reading this scroll, that you shall bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of the Perath:
| وَقُلْ: كَذَلِكَ تَغْرَقُ بَابِلُ وَلا تَطْفُو بَعْدُ لِمَا أُوْقِعُهُ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ عِقَابٍ فَيَعْيَا كُلُّ أَهْلِهَا». إِلَى هُنَا تَنْتَهِي نُبُوءَاتُ إِرْمِيَا. | ٦٤ 64 |
and you shall say, 'Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise again because of the evil that I will bring on her; and they shall be weary.'" Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.
