إرْمِيا 9
| يَا لَيْتَ رَأْسِي فَيْضُ مِيَاهٍ، وَعَيْنَيَّ يَنْبُوعُ دُمُوعٍ، فَأَبْكِيَ نَهَاراً وَلَيْلاً قَتْلَى بِنْتِ شَعْبِي | ١ 1 |
Oh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!
| يَا لَيْتَ لِي فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ مَبِيتَ عَابِرِ سَبِيلٍ، فَأَهْجُرَ شَعْبِي وَأَنْطَلِقَ بَعِيداً عَنْهُمْ، لأَنَّهُمْ جَمِيعاً زُنَاةٌ وَجَمَاعَةُ خَوَنَةٍ. | ٢ 2 |
Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of travelling men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they be all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men.
| «قَدْ وَتَّرُوا أَلْسِنَتَهُمْ كَقِسِيٍّ جَاهِزَةٍ لِيُطْلِقُوا الأَكَاذِيبَ الَّتِي تَقَوَّلُوا بِها فِي الأَرْضِ مِنْ دُونِ الْحَقِّ، إِذْ أَنَّهُمُ انْتَهَوْا مِنْ شَرٍّ إِلَى شَرٍّ، وَإِيَّايَ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا» يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٣ 3 |
And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, says the LORD.
| «لِيَحْتَرِسْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ جَارِهِ، وَلا يَثِقْ بِأَحَدٍ مِنْ أَقْرِبَائِهِ، لأَنَّ كُلَّ قَرِيبٍ مُخَادِعٌ، وَكُلَّ صَاحِبٍ وَاشٍ. | ٤ 4 |
Take all of you heed every one of his neighbour, and trust all of you not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbour will walk with slanders.
| كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ يَخْدَعُ جَارَهُ وَلا يَنْطِقُونَ بِالصِّدْقِ. دَرَّبُوا أَلْسِنَتَهُمْ عَلَى قَوْلِ الْكَذِبِ، وَأَرْهَقُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ فِي ارْتِكَابِ الإِثْمِ. | ٥ 5 |
And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.
| يَجْمَعُونَ ظُلْماً فَوْقَ ظُلْمٍ، وَخِدَاعاً عَلَى خِدَاعٍ، وَأَبَوْا أَنْ يَعْرِفُونِي». | ٦ 6 |
your habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, says the LORD.
| لِذَلِكَ يُعْلِنُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: «هَا أَنَا أُمَحِّصُهُمْ وَأَمْتَحِنُهُمْ، إِذْ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ آخَرَ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ أَفْعَلَهُ عِقَاباً لِخَطَايَا أُورُشَلِيمَ؟ | ٧ 7 |
Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how shall I do for the daughter of my people?
| لِسَانُهُمْ كَسَهْمٍ قَاتِلٍ يَتَفَوَّهُ بِالْكَذِبِ. وَبِفَمِهِ يُخَاطِبُ جَارَهُ بِحَدِيثِ السَّلامِ، أَمَّا فِي قَلْبِهِ فَيَنْصِبُ لَهُ كَمِيناً. | ٨ 8 |
Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaks deceit: one speaks peaceably to his neighbour with his mouth, but in heart he lays his wait.
| أَلا أُعَاقِبُهُمْ عَلَى هَذِهِ الأُمُورِ؟» يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. «أَلا أَنْتَقِمُ لِنَفْسِي مِنْ أُمَّةٍ كَهَذِهِ؟» | ٩ 9 |
Shall I not visit them for these things? says the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
| سَأَنْتَحِبُ وَأَنُوحُ عَلَى الْجِبَالِ وَأَنْدُبُ عَلَى مَرَاعِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ لأَنَّهَا احْتَرَقَتْ وَأَوْحَشَتْ، فَلا يَجْتَازُ بِها عَابِرٌ وَلا يَتَرَدَّدُ فِيهَا صَوْتُ الْقُطْعَانِ، وَقَدْ هَجَرَتْهَا طُيُورُ السَّمَاءِ وَالْوُحُوشُ. | ١٠ 10 |
For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the habitations of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none can pass through them; neither can men hear the voice of the cattle; both the fowl of the heavens and the beast are fled; they are gone.
| «سَأَجْعَلُ أُورُشَلِيمَ رُجْمَةَ خَرَابٍ، وَمَأْوَى لِبَنَاتِ آوَى، وَأُحَوِّلُ مُدُنَ يَهُوذَا إِلَى قَفْرٍ مَهْجُورٍ». | ١١ 11 |
And I will make Jerusalem heaps, and a den of dragons; and I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant.
| مَنْ هُوَ الإِنْسَانُ الْحَكِيمُ حَتَّى يَفْهَمَ هَذَا؟ وَمَنْ خَاطَبَهُ فَمُ الرَّبِّ حَتَّى يُعْلِنَهَا؟ لِمَاذَا خَرِبَتِ الأَرْضُ، وَأَوْحَشَتْ كَالْبَرِّيَّةِ فَلا يَقْطَعُهَا عَابِرٌ؟ | ١٢ 12 |
Who is the wise man, that may understand this? and who is he to whom the mouth of the LORD has spoken, that he may declare it, for what the land perishes and is burned up like a wilderness, that none passes through?
| وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: «لأَنَّهُمْ نَبَذُوا شَرِيعَتِي الَّتِي وَضَعْتُهَا أَمَامَهُمْ، وَلَمْ يُطِيعُوا صَوْتِي أَوْ يَسْلُكُوا بِمُقْتَضَاهَا، | ١٣ 13 |
And the LORD says, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein;
| بَلْ ضَلُّوا وَرَاءَ عِنَادِ قُلُوبِهِمْ، وَانْسَاقُوا خَلْفَ آلِهَةِ الْبَعْلِيمِ الَّتِي لَقَّنَهُمْ آبَاؤُهُمْ عِبَادَتَهَا. | ١٤ 14 |
But have walked after the imagination of their own heart, and after Baalim, which their fathers taught them:
| لِذَلِكَ هَا أَنَا أُطْعِمُ هَذَا الشَّعْبَ طَعَاماً مُرّاً، وَأَسْقِيهِمْ مَاءً مَسْمُوماً، | ١٥ 15 |
Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.
| وَأُشَتِّتُهُمْ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهَا هُمْ وَلا آبَاؤُهُمْ، وَأَجْعَلُ سَيْفَ الدَّمَارِ يَتَعَقَّبُهُمْ حَتَّى أُفْنِيَهُمْ». | ١٦ 16 |
I will scatter them also among the heathen, whom neither they nor their fathers have known: and I will send a sword after them, till I have consumed them.
| وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: «تَأَمَّلُوا وَاسْتَدْعُوا النَّادِبَاتِ لِيَأْتِينَ، وَأَرْسِلُوا إِلَى الْحَكِيمَاتِ فَيُقْبِلْنَ. | ١٧ 17 |
Thus says the LORD of hosts, Consider all of you, and call for the mourning women, that they may come; and send for cunning women, that they may come:
| لِيُسْرِعْنَ حَتَّى يُطْلِقْنَ أَصْوَاتَهُنَّ عَلَيْنَا بِالنَّدْبِ فَتَذْرِفَ عُيُونُنَا دُمُوعاً، وَتَفِيضَ أَجْفَانُنَا مَاءً. | ١٨ 18 |
And let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters.
| هَا صَوْتُ رِثَاءٍ قَدْ تَجَاوَبَ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ: مَا أَشَدَّ دَمَارَنَا، وَمَا أَعْظَمَ عَارَنَا، لأَنَّنَا قَدْ فَارَقْنَا أَرْضَنَا، وَلأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ هَدَمُوا مَسَاكِنَنَا!» | ١٩ 19 |
For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How are we spoiled! we are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because our dwellings have cast us out.
| فَاسْمَعْنَ أَيَّتُهَا النِّسَاءُ قَضَاءَ الرَّبِّ، وَلْتَفْهَمْ آذَانُكُنَّ كَلِمَةَ فَمِهِ: لَقِّنَّ بَنَاتِكُنَّ الرِّثَاءَ، وَلْتُعَلِّمْ كُلٌّ مِنْهُنَّ صَاحِبَتَهَا النَّدْبَ، | ٢٠ 20 |
Yet hear the word of the LORD, O all of you women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth, and teach your daughters wailing, and every one her neighbour lamentation.
| فَإِنَّ الْمَوْتَ قَدْ تَسَلَّقَ إِلَى كُوَانَا وَتَسَلَّلَ إِلَى قُصُورِنَا، فَاسْتَأْصَلَ الأَطْفَالَ مِنَ الشَّوَارِعِ وَالشُّبَّانَ مِنَ السَّاحَاتِ. | ٢١ 21 |
For death has come up into our windows, and is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets.
| وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: «سَتَتَهَاوَى جُثَثُ النَّاسِ مِثْلَ نُفَايَةٍ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْحَقْلِ، وَتَتَسَاقَطُ كَقَبَضَاتٍ وَرَاءَ الْحَاصِدِ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَجْمَعُهَا». | ٢٢ 22 |
Speak, Thus says the LORD, Even the carcasses of men shall fall as dung upon the open field, and as the handful after the harvestman, and none shall gather them.
| «فَلا يَفْتَخِرَنَّ الْحَكِيمُ بِحِكْمَتِهِ، وَلا يَزْهُوَنَّ الْجَبَّارُ بِجَبَرُوتِهِ، وَلا الْغَنِيُّ بِثَرْوَتِهِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Thus says the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches:
| بَلْ لِيَفْتَخِرِ الْمُفْتَخِرُ بِأَنَّهُ يُدْرِكُ وَيَعْرِفُنِي أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ الَّذِي يُمَارِسُ الرَّحْمَةَ وَالْعَدْلَ وَالْبِرَّ فِي الأَرْضِ لأَنِّي أُسَرُّ بِها». | ٢٤ 24 |
But let him that glories glory in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD which exercise loving kindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, says the LORD.
| «هَا أَيَّامٌ مُقْبِلَةٌ»، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، «أُعَاقِبُ فِيهَا كُلَّ مَخْتُونٍ وَأَغْلَفَ | ٢٥ 25 |
Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will punish all them which are circumcised with the uncircumcised;
| أَهْلَ مِصْرَ وَيَهُوذَا وَأَدُومَ وَبَنِي عَمُّونَ وَمُوآبَ، وَسَائِرَ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ مِمَّنْ يَقُصُّونَ شَعْرَ أَصْدَاغِهِمْ، لأَنَّ جَمِيعَ الشُّعُوبِ غُلْفٌ، أَمَّا كُلُّ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَإِنَّهُمْ ذَوُو قُلُوبٍ غَلْفَاءَ». | ٢٦ 26 |
Egypt, and Judah, and Edom, and the children of Ammon, and Moab, and all that are in the utmost corners, that dwell in the wilderness: for all these nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in the heart.
