< 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 the city sits solitary, that was full of people. She has become as a widow, who was great among the nations. She who was a princess among the provinces has become a forced laborer.
تَبْكِي بِمَرَارَةٍ فِي اللَّيْلِ، وَدُمُوعُهَا تَنْهَمِرُ عَلَى خَدَّيْهَا. لَا مُعَزِّيَ لَهَا بَيْنَ مُحِبِّيهَا. غَدَرَ بِها جَمِيِعُ خِلّانِهَا وَأَصْبَحُوا لَهَا أَعْدَاءَ. | ٢ 2 |
She weeps bitterly in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks; among all her lovers she has none to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with 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 because of affliction and harsh servitude; she dwells among the nations, she finds no rest: all her persecutors overtook 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 the solemn assembly; all her gates are desolate, her priests groan: her virgins are afflicted, and she herself is in bitterness.
أَصْبَحَ أَعْدَاؤُهَا سَادَةً، وَنَجَحَ مُضَايِقُوهَا، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ أَشْقَاهَا بِسَبَبِ خَطَايَاهَا الْمُتَكَاثِرَةِ. قَدْ ذَهَبَ أَوْلادُهَا إِلَى السَّبْيِ أَمَامَ الْعَدُوِّ. | ٥ 5 |
Her adversaries have become the head, her enemies prosper; for the LORD has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions: her young children have gone into captivity before the adversary.
تَعَرَّتْ بِنْتُ صِهْيَوْنَ مِنْ كُلِّ بَهَائِهَا، وَغَدَا أَشْرَافُهَا كَأَيَائِلَ شَارِدَةٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَرْعَى. فَرُّوا بِقُوَّةٍ خَائِرَةٍ أَمَامَ الْمُطَارِدِ. | ٦ 6 |
All majesty has departed from the daughter of Zion: her leaders have become like deer that find no pasture, they fled exhausted before the pursuer.
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 |
Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and wandering all her precious things that were from the days of old: when her people fell into the hand of the adversary, and no one helped her. The adversaries saw her, they mocked at her desolations.
ارْتَكَبَتْ أُورُشَلِيمُ خَطِيئَةً نَكْرَاءَ فَأَصْبَحَتْ رَجِسَةً. جَمِيعُ مُكَرِّمِيهَا يَحْتَقِرُونَهَا لأَنَّهُمْ شَهِدُوا عُرْيَهَا، أَمَّا هِيَ فَتَنَهَّدَتْ وَتَرَاجَعَتِ الْقَهْقَرِيَّ. | ٨ 8 |
Jerusalem has grievously sinned; therefore she has become as an unclean thing; all who honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yes, she 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 filthiness was in her skirts; she did not remember her latter end; therefore her fall was astonishing; she has no comforter. "Look, LORD, on my affliction, for the enemy has magnified himself."
امْتَدَّتْ يَدُ الْعَدُوِّ إِلَى كُلِّ ذَخَائِرِهَا، وَأَبْصَرَتِ الأُمَمَ يَنْتَهِكُونَ حُرْمَةَ مَقَادِسِهَا. هَؤُلاءِ الَّذِينَ حَظَرْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا فِي جَمَاعَتِكَ. | ١٠ 10 |
The adversary has spread out his hand on all her precious things: for she has seen that the nations have entered into her sanctuary, concerning whom you commanded that they should not enter into 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 sigh, they seek bread; they have given their precious things for food to refresh the soul. "Look, LORD, and see, for I am 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 it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look, and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow, which is brought on me, with which the LORD has afflicted me in 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 |
From on high he has sent fire into my bones, and it overcame them. He has spread a net for my feet, he has turned me back. He has made me desolate and faint all the day.
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; by his hand they are fastened together, they are set upon my neck; he has made my strength to fail. The LORD has delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.
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 my mighty men in my midst; he has called a solemn assembly against me to crush my young men. The LORD has trodden as in a winepress 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; because the comforter who should refresh my soul is far from me. My children are desolate, 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 spreads forth her hands; there is none to comfort her. The LORD has commanded concerning Jacob, that those who are around him should be his adversaries. Jerusalem is among them as an unclean thing.
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 commandment. Please listen all you people, and see my suffering. My virgins and my young men have gone into captivity.
دَعَوْتُ مُحِبِّيَّ فَخَدَعُونِي. فَنِيَ كَهَنَتِي وَشُيُوخِي فِي الْمَدِينَةِ وَهُمْ يَنْشُدُونَ قُوتاً لإِحْيَاءِ نُفُوسِهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
I called for my lovers, but they deceived me. My priests and my elders perished in the city, while they searched for food to refresh their souls.
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, LORD, for I am in distress; my stomach churns; my heart is turned within me; for I have grievously rebelled. Outside the sword bereaves, in the house it is like 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 |
They have heard that I groan; there is none to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that you have done it. Bring the day that you have proclaimed, so that they shall end up 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. Do to them, as you have done to me for all my transgressions. For my groans are many, and my heart is faint.
