مَراثِي إرْمِي 1
| كَيْفَ أَصْبَحَتِ الْمَدِينَةُ الآهِلَةُ بِالسُّكَّانِ مَهْجُورَةً وَحِيدَةً؟ صَارَتْ كَأَرْمَلَةٍ! هَذِهِ الَّتِي كَانَتْ عَظِيمَةً بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ. السَّيِّدَةُ بَيْنَ الْمُدُنِ صَارَتْ تَحْتَ الْجِزْيَةِ! | ١ 1 |
How lonely lies the city, once so full of people! She who was great among the nations has become a widow. The princess of the provinces has become a slave.
| تَبْكِي بِمَرَارَةٍ فِي اللَّيْلِ، وَدُمُوعُهَا تَنْهَمِرُ عَلَى خَدَّيْهَا. لَا مُعَزِّيَ لَهَا بَيْنَ مُحِبِّيهَا. غَدَرَ بِها جَمِيِعُ خِلّانِهَا وَأَصْبَحُوا لَهَا أَعْدَاءَ. | ٢ 2 |
She weeps aloud in the night, with tears upon her cheeks. Among all her lovers there is no one to comfort her. All her friends have betrayed her; they have become her enemies.
| سُبِيَتْ يَهُوذَا إِلَى الْمَنْفَى بَعْدَ كُلِّ مَا عَانَتْهُ مِنْ ذُلٍّ وَعُبُودِيَّةٍ، فَأَقَامَتْ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ شَقِيَّةً، وَأَدْرَكَهَا مُطَارِدُوهَا فِي خِضَمِّ ضِيقَاتِهَا. | ٣ 3 |
Judah has gone into exile under affliction and harsh slavery; she dwells among the nations but finds no place to rest. All her pursuers have overtaken her in the midst of her distress.
| تَنُوحُ الطُّرُقُ الْمُفْضِيَةُ إِلَى صِهْيَوْنَ، لأَنَّهَا أَقْفَرَتْ مِنَ الْقَادِمِينَ إِلَى الأَعْيَادِ! تَهَدَّمَتْ بَوَّابَاتُهَا جَمِيعاً. كَهَنَتُهَا يَتَنَهَّدُونَ؛ عَذَارَاهَا مُتَحَسِّرَاتٌ وَهِيَ تُقَاسِي مُرَّ الْعَذَابِ. | ٤ 4 |
The roads to Zion mourn, because no one comes to her appointed feasts. All her gates are deserted; her priests groan, her maidens grieve, and she herself is bitter with anguish.
| أَصْبَحَ أَعْدَاؤُهَا سَادَةً، وَنَجَحَ مُضَايِقُوهَا، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ أَشْقَاهَا بِسَبَبِ خَطَايَاهَا الْمُتَكَاثِرَةِ. قَدْ ذَهَبَ أَوْلادُهَا إِلَى السَّبْيِ أَمَامَ الْعَدُوِّ. | ٥ 5 |
Her foes have become her masters; her enemies are at ease. For the LORD has brought her grief because of her many transgressions. Her children have gone away as captives before the enemy.
| تَعَرَّتْ بِنْتُ صِهْيَوْنَ مِنْ كُلِّ بَهَائِهَا، وَغَدَا أَشْرَافُهَا كَأَيَائِلَ شَارِدَةٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَرْعَى. فَرُّوا بِقُوَّةٍ خَائِرَةٍ أَمَامَ الْمُطَارِدِ. | ٦ 6 |
All the splendor has departed from the Daughter of Zion. Her princes are like deer that find no pasture; they lack the strength to flee in the face of the hunter.
| تَذَكَّرَتْ أُورُشَلِيمُ فِي أَيَّامِ شَقَائِهَا وَمِحْنَتِهَا جَمِيعَ مَا كَانَتْ تَتَمَتَّعُ بِهِ مِنْ مُشْتَهَيَاتٍ فِي حِقَبِهَا الْغَابِرَةِ. عِنْدَمَا وَقَعَ شَعْبُهَا فِي قَبْضَةِ الْعَدُوِّ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا مُسْعِفٌ، رَآهَا الْعَدُوُّ صَرِيعَةً وَسَخِرَ لِهَلاكِهَا. | ٧ 7 |
In the days of her affliction and wandering Jerusalem remembers all the treasures that were hers in days of old. When her people fell into enemy hands she received no help. Her enemies looked upon her, laughing at her downfall.
| ارْتَكَبَتْ أُورُشَلِيمُ خَطِيئَةً نَكْرَاءَ فَأَصْبَحَتْ رَجِسَةً. جَمِيعُ مُكَرِّمِيهَا يَحْتَقِرُونَهَا لأَنَّهُمْ شَهِدُوا عُرْيَهَا، أَمَّا هِيَ فَتَنَهَّدَتْ وَتَرَاجَعَتِ الْقَهْقَرِيَّ. | ٨ 8 |
Jerusalem has sinned greatly; therefore she has become an object of scorn. All who honored her now despise her, for they have seen her nakedness; she herself groans and turns away.
| قَدْ عَلِقَ رِجْسُهَا بِذُيُولِهَا. لَمْ تَذْكُرْ آخِرَتَهَا، لِهَذَا كَانَ سُقُوطُهَا رَهِيباً، وَلا مُعَزِّيَ لَهَا. انْظُرْ يَا رَبُّ إِلَى شَقَائِي لأَنَّ الْعَدُوَّ قَدِ انْتَصَرَ. | ٩ 9 |
Her uncleanness stains her skirts; she did not consider her end. Her downfall was astounding; there was no one to comfort her. Look, O LORD, on my affliction, for the enemy has triumphed!
| امْتَدَّتْ يَدُ الْعَدُوِّ إِلَى كُلِّ ذَخَائِرِهَا، وَأَبْصَرَتِ الأُمَمَ يَنْتَهِكُونَ حُرْمَةَ مَقَادِسِهَا. هَؤُلاءِ الَّذِينَ حَظَرْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا فِي جَمَاعَتِكَ. | ١٠ 10 |
The adversary has seized all her treasures. For she has seen the nations enter her sanctuary— those You had forbidden to enter Your assembly.
| شَعْبُهَا كُلُّهُ يَتَنَهَّدُ وَهُوَ يَبْحَثُ عَنِ الْقُوتِ. قَدْ قَايَضُوا ذَخَائِرَهُمْ بِالطَّعَامِ لإِنْعَاشِ النَّفْسِ الْخَائِرَةِ. (وَقَالَتْ: ) «انْظُرْ يَا رَبُّ وَتَأَمَّلْ كَيْفَ أَصْبَحْتُ مُحْتَقَرَةً». | ١١ 11 |
All her people groan as they search for bread. They have traded their treasures for food to keep themselves alive. Look, O LORD, and consider, for I have become despised.
| أَلا يَعْنِيكُمْ هَذَا يَا جَمِيعَ عَابِرِي الطَّرِيقِ؟ تَأَمَّلُوا وَانْظُرُوا، هَلْ مِنْ أَلَمٍ كَأَلَمِي الَّذِي ابْتَلانِي بِهِ الرَّبُّ فِي يَوْمِ احْتِدَامِ غَضَبِهِ؟ | ١٢ 12 |
Is this nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look around and see! Is there any sorrow like mine, which was inflicted on me, which the LORD made me suffer on the day of His fierce anger?
| مِنَ الْعَلاءِ صَبَّ نَاراً فِي عِظَامِي فَسَرَتْ فِيهَا. نَصَبَ شَرَكاً لِقَدَمَيَّ فَرَدَّنِي إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ. جَعَلَنِي أَطْلالاً أَئِنُّ طُولَ النَّهَارِ. | ١٣ 13 |
He sent fire from on high, and it overpowered my bones. He spread a net for my feet and turned me back. He made me desolate, faint all the day long.
| شَدَّ مَعَاصِيَّ إِلَى نِيرٍ، وَبِيَدِهِ حَبَكَهَا، فَنَاءَ بِها عُنُقِي. أَوْهَنَ الرَّبُّ قُوَايَ وَأَسْلَمَنِي إِلَى يَدٍ لَا طَاقَةَ لِي عَلَى مُقَاوَمَتِهَا. | ١٤ 14 |
My transgressions are bound into a yoke, knit together by His hand; they are draped over my neck, and the Lord has broken my strength. He has delivered me into the hands of those I cannot withstand.
| بَدَّدَ الرَّبُّ جَمِيعَ جَبَابِرَتِي فِي وَسَطِي، وَأَلَّبَ عَلَيَّ حَشْداً مِنْ أَعْدَائِي لِيَسْحَقُوا شُبَّانِي. دَاسَ الرَّبُّ الْعَذْرَاءَ بِنْتَ صِهْيَوْنَ كَمَا يُدَاسُ الْعِنَبُ فِي الْمِعْصَرَةِ. | ١٥ 15 |
The Lord has rejected all the mighty men in my midst; He has summoned an army against me to crush my young warriors. Like grapes in a winepress, the Lord has trampled the Virgin Daughter of Judah.
| عَلَى هَذِهِ كُلِّهَا أَبْكِي. عَيْنَايَ، عَيْنَايَ تَفِيضَانِ بِالدُّمُوعِ، إِذِ ابْتَعَدَ عَنِّي كُلُّ مُعَزٍّ يُنْعِشُ نَفْسِي. هَلَكَ أَبْنَائِي لأَنَّ الْعَدُوَّ قَدْ ظَفِرَ. | ١٦ 16 |
For these things I weep; my eyes flow with tears. For there is no one nearby to comfort me, no one to revive my soul. My children are destitute because the enemy has prevailed.
| تَمُدُّ صِهْيَوْنُ يَدَيْهَا تَلْتَمِسُ مُعَزِّياً، وَلَكِنْ عَلَى غَيْرِ طَائِلٍ. قَدْ أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ أَنْ يَكُونَ مُضَايِقُو يَعْقُوبَ هُمْ جِيرَانُهُ الَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُ. قَدْ أَصْبَحَتْ أُورُشَلِيمُ رِجْساً بَيْنَهُمْ. | ١٧ 17 |
Zion stretches out her hands, but there is no one to comfort her. The LORD has decreed against Jacob that his neighbors become his foes. Jerusalem has become an unclean thing among them.
| الرَّبُّ حَقّاً عَادِلٌ، وَأَنَا قَدْ تَمَرَّدْتُ عَلَى أَمْرِهِ. فَاسْتَمِعُوا يَا جَمِيعَ الشُّعُوبِ وَاشْهَدُوا وَجَعِي. قَدْ ذَهَبَ عَذَارَايَ وَشُبَّانِي إِلَى السَّبْيِ. | ١٨ 18 |
The LORD is righteous, for I have rebelled against His command. Listen, all you people; look upon my suffering. My young men and maidens have gone into captivity.
| دَعَوْتُ مُحِبِّيَّ فَخَدَعُونِي. فَنِيَ كَهَنَتِي وَشُيُوخِي فِي الْمَدِينَةِ وَهُمْ يَنْشُدُونَ قُوتاً لإِحْيَاءِ نُفُوسِهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
I called out to my lovers, but they have betrayed me. My priests and elders perished in the city while they searched for food to keep themselves alive.
| انْظُرْ يَا رَبُّ فَإِنِّي فِي ضِيقَةٍ. أَحْشَائِي جَائِشَةٌ وَقَلْبِي مُتَلاطِمٌ فِي دَاخِلِي، لأَنِّي أَكْثَرْتُ التَّمَرُّدَ. هَا السَّيْفُ يُثْكِلُ فِي الْخَارِجِ وَفِي الْبَيْتِ يَسُودُ الْمَوْتُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
See, O LORD, how distressed I am! I am churning within; my heart is pounding within me, for I have been most rebellious. Outside, the sword bereaves; inside, there is death.
| قَدْ سَمِعُوا تَنَهُّدِي فَلَمْ يَكُنْ مِنْ مُعَزٍّ لِي. جَمِيعُ أَعْدَائِي عَرَفُوا بِبَلِيَّتِي فَشَمِتُوا بِمَا فَعَلْتَ بِي. أَسْرِعْ بِيَوْمِ الْعِقَابِ الَّذِي تَوَعَّدْتَ بِهِ فَيَصِيرُوا مِثْلِي. | ٢١ 21 |
People have heard my groaning, but there is no one to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that You have caused it. May You bring the day You have announced, so that they may become like me.
| لِيَأْتِ كُلُّ شَرِّهِمْ أَمَامَكَ فَتُعَاقِبَهُمْ كَمَا عَاقَبْتَنِي عَلَى كُلِّ ذُنُوبِي، لأَنَّ تَنَهُّدَاتِي كَثِيرَةٌ وَقَلْبِي مَغْشِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Let all their wickedness come before You, and deal with them as You have dealt with me because of all my transgressions. For my groans are many, and my heart is faint.
