إرْمِيا 8
| وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: «فِي ذَلِكَ الْحِينِ يَنْبِشُونَ مِنَ الْقُبُورِ عِظَامَ مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا وَعِظَامَ رُؤَسَائِهِمْ وَكَهَنَتِهِمْ وَأَنْبِيَائِهِمْ، وَعِظَامَ سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ١ 1 |
“At that time,” declares the LORD, “the bones of the kings of Judah, the bones of the officials, the bones of the priests, the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem will be removed from their graves.
| وَيَعْرِضُونَهَا أَمَامَ الشَّمْسِ وَالْقَمَرِ وَكَوَاكِبِ السَّمَاءِ الَّتِي أَحَبُّوهَا وَعَبَدُوهَا وَضَلُّوا وَرَاءَهَا، وَاسْتَشَارُوهَا وَسَجَدُوا لَهَا، فَلا تُجْمَعُ وَلا تُدْفَنُ، بَلْ تَصِيرُ نُفَايَةً فَوْقَ وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ، | ٢ 2 |
They will be exposed to the sun and moon, and to all the host of heaven which they have loved, served, followed, consulted, and worshiped. Their bones will not be gathered up or buried, but will become like dung lying on the ground.
| وَجَمِيعُ الْبَقِيَّةِ الْبَاقِيَةِ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْعَشِيرَةِ الشِّرِّيرَةِ الْمُشَتَّتَةِ فِي جَمِيعِ الْبِقَاعِ الَّتِي نَفَيْتُهُمْ إِلَيْهَا، يُؤْثِرُونَ الْمَوْتَ عَلَى الْحَيَاةِ». | ٣ 3 |
And wherever I have banished them, the remnant of this evil family will choose death over life,” declares the LORD of Hosts.
| وَتَقُولُ لَهُمْ: «هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: عِنْدَمَا يَسْقُطُ الرِّجَالُ، أَلا يَقُومُونَ ثَانِيَةً؟ وَعِنْدَمَا يَرْتَدُّونَ مُخْطِئِينَ أَلا يَرْجِعُونَ؟ | ٤ 4 |
So you are to tell them this is what the LORD says: “Do men fall and not get up again? Does one turn away and not return?
| فَمَا بَالُ شَعْبِ أُورُشَلِيمَ قَدِ ارْتَدُّوا ارْتِدَاداً دَائِماً مُتَشَبِّثِينَ بِالْخَدِيعَةِ وَرَافِضِينَ الرُّجُوعَ؟ | ٥ 5 |
Why then have these people turned away? Why does Jerusalem always turn away? They cling to deceit; they refuse to return.
| قَدْ أَصْغَيْتُ وَسَمِعْتُ، وَإذَا بِهِمْ يَنْطِقُونَ بِمَا يُنَافِي الْحَقَّ، وَمَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَتُوبُ عَنْ شَرِّهِ قَائِلاً: مَا هَذَا الَّذِي أَرْتَكِبُ؟ بَلْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مَضَى فِي طَرِيقِهِ كَفَرَسٍ مُنْدَفِعٍ لِخَوْضِ مَعْرَكَةٍ. | ٦ 6 |
I have listened and heard; they do not speak what is right. No one repents of his wickedness, asking, ‘What have I done?’ Everyone has pursued his own course like a horse charging into battle.
| إِنَّ اللَّقْلَقَ فِي السَّمَاءِ يَعْرِفُ مِيعَادَ هِجْرَتِهِ، وَالْيَمَامَةَ وَالسُّنُونَةَ الْمُغَرِّدَةَ تَحْفَظَانِ أَوَانَ عَوْدَتِهِمَا مِنْ هِجْرَتِهِمَا. أَمَّا شَعْبِي فَلا يَعْرِفُ قَضَاءَ الرَّبِّ! | ٧ 7 |
Even the stork in the sky knows her appointed seasons. The turtledove, the swift, and the thrush keep their time of migration, but My people do not know the requirements of the LORD.
| كَيْفَ تَدَّعُونَ أَنَّكُمْ حُكَمَاءُ وَلَدَيْكُمْ شَرِيعَةَ الرَّبِّ بَيْنَمَا حَوَّلَهَا قَلَمُ الْكَتَبَةِ المُخَادِعُ إِلَى أُكْذُوبَةٍ؟ | ٨ 8 |
How can you say, ‘We are wise, and the Law of the LORD is with us,’ when in fact the lying pen of the scribes has produced a deception?
| سَيَلْحَقُ الْخِزْيُ بِالْحُكَمَاءِ وَيَعْتَرِيهِمِ الْفَزَعُ وَالذُّهُولُ، لأَنَّهُمْ رَفَضُوا كَلِمَةَ الرَّبِّ. إِذاً أَيَّةُ حِكْمَةٍ فِيهِمْ؟ | ٩ 9 |
The wise will be put to shame; they will be dismayed and trapped. Since they have rejected the word of the LORD, what wisdom do they really have?
| لِذَلِكَ أُعْطِي نِسَاءَهُمْ لآخَرِينَ وَحُقُولَهُمْ لِلْوَارِثِينَ الْقَاهِرِينَ، لأَنَّهُمْ جَمِيعاً مِنْ صَغِيرِهِمْ إِلَى كَبِيرِهِمْ مُوْلَعُونَ بِالرِّبْحِ. حَتَّى النَّبِيُّ وَالْكَاهِنُ يَرْتَكِبَانِ الزُّورَ فِي أَعْمَالِهِمَا، | ١٠ 10 |
Therefore I will give their wives to other men and their fields to new owners. For from the least of them to the greatest, all are greedy for gain; from prophet to priest, all practice deceit.
| وَيُعَالِجُونَ جِرَاحَ شَعْبِي بِاسْتِخْفَافٍ قَائِلِينَ: سَلامٌ، سَلامٌ فِي حِينِ لَا يُوْجَدُ سَلامٌ. | ١١ 11 |
They dress the wound of the daughter of My people with very little care, saying, ‘Peace, peace,’ when there is no peace at all.
| هَلْ خَجِلُوا عِنْدَمَا اقْتَرَفُوا الرِّجْسَ؟ كَلَّا! لَمْ يَخْزَوْا قَطُّ وَلَمْ يَعْرِفُوا الْخَجَلَ. لِذَلِكَ سَيَسْقُطُونَ بَيْنَ السَّاقِطِينَ، وَحِينَ أُعَاقِبُهُمْ يُطَوَّحُ بِهِمْ»، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ١٢ 12 |
Are they ashamed of the abomination they have committed? No, they have no shame at all; they do not even know how to blush. So they will fall among the fallen; when I punish them, they will collapse, says the LORD.
| «وَسَأُبِيدُهُمْ حَقّاً، إِذْ لَا يَكُونُ فِي الْكَرْمَةِ عِنَبٌ وَلا فِي التِّينَةِ تِينٌ، حَتَّى أَوْرَاقُ الأَشْجَارِ تَذْوِي وَتَتَسَاقَطُ، وَمَا أَغْدَقْتُهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ نِعَمٍ يُسْلَبُ مِنْهُمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
I will take away their harvest, declares the LORD. There will be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the tree, and even the leaf will wither. Whatever I have given them will be lost to them.”
| فَمَا لَنَا قَابِعُونَ هُنَا؟ اجْتَمِعُوا مَعاً وَلْنَلْجَأْ إِلَى الْمُدُنِ الْحَصِينَةِ وَنَهْلِكْ هُنَاكَ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا قَدْ قَضَى عَلَيْنَا بِالْهَلاكِ، وَأَعْطَانَا مَاءً مَسْمُوماً لِنَشْرَبَهُ، لأَنَّنَا أَخْطَأْنَا فِي حَقِّهِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Why are we just sitting here? Gather together, let us flee to the fortified cities and perish there, for the LORD our God has doomed us. He has given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.
| طَلَبْنَا السَّلامَ فَلَمْ يُسْفِرْ عَنْ خَيْرٍ. نَشَدْنَا وَقْتاً لِلْمُدَاوَاةِ فَابْتُلِينَا بِالأَهْوَالِ. | ١٥ 15 |
We hoped for peace, but no good has come, for a time of healing, but there was only terror.
| قَدْ تَرَدَّدَتْ حَمْحَمَةُ خَيْلِهِمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ دَانَ، وَارْتَعَدَتِ الأَرْضُ مِنْ صَهِيلِ جِيَادِهِمْ. قَدْ أَقْبَلُوا وَاكْتَسَحُوا الأَرْضَ وَكُلَّ مَا فِيهَا، وَالْمَدِينَةَ وَأَهْلَهَا. | ١٦ 16 |
The snorting of enemy horses is heard from Dan. At the sound of the neighing of mighty steeds, the whole land quakes. They come to devour the land and everything in it, the city and all who dwell in it.
| انْظُرُوا، هَا أَنَا أُرْسِلُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَفَاعِيَ مُمِيتَةً لَا تَنْجَعُ مَعَهَا رُقىً فَتَلْدَغُكُمْ»، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ١٧ 17 |
“For behold, I will send snakes among you, vipers that cannot be charmed, and they will bite you,”
| قَدْ غَلَبَ عَلَيَّ الْحُزْنُ وَقَلْبِي فِيَّ سَقِيمٌ. | ١٨ 18 |
My sorrow is beyond healing; my heart is faint within me.
| هُوَذَا صَرْخَةُ اسْتِغَاثَةِ أُورُشَلِيمَ تَتَجَاوَبُ مِنْ أَرْضٍ نَائِيَةٍ قَائِلَةً: «أَلَيْسَ الرَّبُّ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ؟ أَلَيْسَ مَلِكُهَا فِيهَا؟ لِمَاذَا أَثَارُوا غَيْظِي بِمَنْحُوتَاتِهِمْ وَأَوْثَانِهِمِ الْغَرِيبَةِ الْبَاطِلَةِ؟ | ١٩ 19 |
Listen to the cry of the daughter of my people from a land far away: “Is the LORD no longer in Zion? Is her King no longer there?” “Why have they provoked Me to anger with their carved images, with their worthless foreign idols?”
| قَدِ انْقَضَى مَوْسِمُ الْحَصَادِ، وَانْتَهَى الصَّيْفُ، وَنَحْنُ لَمْ نَخْلُصْ». | ٢٠ 20 |
“The harvest has passed, the summer has ended, but we have not been saved.”
| لأَنَّ سَحْقَ أُورُشَلِيمَ هُوَ سَحْقِي، لِذَلِكَ أَنُوحُ وَقَدِ اشْتَدَّ بِيَ الرُّعْبُ. | ٢١ 21 |
For the brokenness of the daughter of my people I am crushed. I mourn; horror has gripped me.
| أَلا يُوْجَدُ بَلَسَانٌ فِي جِلْعَادَ؟ أَلَيْسَ هُنَاكَ طَبِيبٌ؟ فَلِمَاذَا إِذَنْ لَمْ تُشفَ جُرُوحُ شَعْبِي. | ٢٢ 22 |
Is there no balm in Gilead? Is no physician there? Why then has the health of the daughter of my people not been restored?
