مَلاخِي 2
| «وَالآنَ هَاكُمْ هَذِهِ الْوَصِيَّةُ أَيُّهَا الْكَهَنَةُ: | ١ 1 |
And now, O ye Priests, this commandement is for you.
| إِنْ أَبَيْتُمْ الاسْتِمَاعَ، وَلَمْ تَنْوُوا فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ أَنْ تُمَجِّدُوا اسْمِي، أَصُبُّ عَلَيْكُمُ اللَّعْنَةَ، وَأَلْعَنُ بَرَكَاتِكُمْ، بَلْ هَا أَنَا قَدْ حَوَّلْتُهَا إِلَى لَعْنَاتٍ لأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَجْعَلُوهَا فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ. | ٢ 2 |
If yee will not heare it, nor consider it in your heart, to giue glory vnto my Name, sayth the Lord of hostes, I will euen sende a curse vpon you, and will curse your blessings: yea, I haue cursed them alreadie, because yee doe not consider it in your heart.
| هَا أَنَا أُعَاقِبُ أَوْلادَكُمْ، وَأَنْثُرُ رَوْثَ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ الَّتِي تُقَدِّمُونَهَا لِي عَلَى وُجُوهِكُمْ، ثُم يَطْرَحُونَكُمْ مَعَهَا خَارِجاً فَوْقَ الْقُمَامَةِ الدَّنِسَةِ. | ٣ 3 |
Behold, I wil corrupt your seede, and cast dongue vpon your faces, euen the dongue of your solemne feastes, and you shall be like vnto it.
| فَتُدْرِكُونَ أَنِّي أَرْسَلْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ هَذِهِ التَّحْذِيرَاتِ لِكَيْ يَظَلَّ عَهْدِي مَعَ أَبْنَاءِ لاوِي قَائِماً. | ٤ 4 |
And yee shall know, that I haue sent this commandement vnto you, that my couenant, which I made with Leui, might stand, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
| فَقَدْ كَانَ عَهْدِي مَعَ لاوِي وَنَسْلِهِ عَهْدَ حَيَاةٍ وَسَلامٍ، فَوَهَبْتُهُمَا لَهُمْ، وَمَنَحْتُهُمُ التَّقْوَى، فَاتَّقُونِي وَوَقَفُوا خَاشِعِينَ لاِسْمِي يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ. | ٥ 5 |
My couenant was with him of life and peace, and I gaue him feare, and he feared mee, and was afraid before my Name.
| نَطَقَ فَمُهُ بِشَرِيعَةِ الْحَقِّ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِي شَفَتَيْهِ إِثْمٌ. وَسَلَكَ مَعِي سَبِيلَ السَّلامِ وَالاسْتِقَامَةِ وَرَدَّ كَثِيرِينَ عَنِ الْمَعْصِيَةِ. | ٦ 6 |
The lawe of trueth was in his mouth, and there was no iniquitie founde in his lippes: hee walked with me in peace and equitie, and did turne many away from iniquitie.
| لأَنَّ شَفَتَيِ الْكَاهِنِ تَحْفَظَانِ الْعِلْمَ، وَمِنْ فَمِهِ يَطْلُبُ النَّاسُ الشَّرِيعَةَ، لأَنَّهُ رَسُولُ الرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ. | ٧ 7 |
For the Priestes lippes shoulde preserue knowledge, and they shoulde seeke the Lawe at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the Lord of hostes.
| وَلَكِنَّكُمُ انْحَرَفْتُمْ عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ الْمُسْتَقِيمِ، وَأَعْثَرْتُمْ بِتَعَالِيمِكُمْ كَثِيرِينَ، وَنَقَضْتُمْ عَهْدِي مَعَ النَّسْلِ الْكَهَنُوتِيِّ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ. | ٨ 8 |
But yee are gone out of the way: yee haue caused many to fall by the Lawe: yee haue broken the couenant of Leui, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
| لِذَلِكَ أُحَقِّرُكُمْ وَأُذِلُّكُمْ أَمَامَ جَمِيعِ النَّاسِ، لأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تُطِيعُوا طُرُقِي، وَحَابَيْتُمْ فِي تَطْبِيقِ شَرِيعَتِي». | ٩ 9 |
Therefore haue I also made you to be despised, and vile before all the people, because yee kept not my wayes, but haue beene partiall in the Lawe.
| أَلَيْسَ لَنَا جَمِيعاً أَبٌ وَاحِدٌ؟ أَلَمْ يَخْلُقْنَا إِلَهٌ وَاحِدٌ، فَمَا بَالُنَا يَغْدُرُ أَحَدُنَا بِالآخَرِ وَنُدَنِّسُ عَهْدَ آبَائِنَا؟ | ١٠ 10 |
Haue we not all one father? hath not one God made vs? why doe we transgresse euery one against his brother, and breake the couenant of our fathers?
| لَقَدْ غَدَرَ يَهُوذَا وَارْتَكَبَ الرَّجَاسَةَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لأَنَّ يَهُوذَا قَدْ دَنَّسَ هَيْكَلَ الرَّبِّ الْمَحْبُوبَ، وَتَزَوَّجَ مِنْ بَنَاتٍ يَعْبُدْنَ آلِهَةً غَرِيبَةً. | ١١ 11 |
Iudah hath transgressed, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Ierusalem: for Iudah hath defiled the holinesse of the Lord, which hee loued, and hath maried the daughter of a strange God.
| لِيَسْتَأْصِلِ الرَّبُّ مِنْ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ كُلَّ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا، مِنْ غَيْرِ تَمْيِيزٍ، وَحَتَّى مِمَّنْ يُقَدِّمُونَ قَرَابِينَ لِلرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ. | ١٢ 12 |
The Lord will cut off the man that doeth this: both the master and the seruaunt out of the Tabernacle of Iaacob, and him that offereth an offering vnto the Lord of hostes.
| وَهَذَا أَيْضاً مَا ارْتَكَبْتُمْ: لَقَدْ أَغْرَقْتُمْ مَذْبَحَ الرَّبِّ بِالدُّمُوعِ، فَأَنْتُمْ تَبْكُونَ وَتَنُوحُونَ لأَنَّهْ لَمْ يَعُدْ يُعِيرُ تَقْدِمَاتِكُمُ انْتِبَاهاً أَوْ يَقْبَلُهَا مِنْكُمْ بِمَسَرَّةٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
And this haue ye done againe, and couered the altar of the Lord with teares, with weeping and with mourning: because the offering is no more regarded, neither receiued acceptably at your handes.
| وَتَتَسَاءَلُونَ: لِمَاذَا؟ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ كَانَ شَاهِداً عَلَى الْعَهْدِ الْمَقْطُوعِ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ زَوْجَةِ صِبَاكَ الَّتِي غَدَرْتَ بِها، مَعَ أَنَّهَا شَرِيكَتُكَ وَامْرَأَةُ عَهْدِكَ. | ١٤ 14 |
Yet yee say, Wherein? Because the Lord hath beene witnesse betweene thee and the wife of thy youth, against whome thou hast transgressed: yet is shee thy companion, and the wife of thy couenant.
| وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يُقْدِمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ أَيُّ وَاحِدٍ مَازَالَتْ فِيهِ بَقِيَّةٌ مِنَ الرُّوحِ. وَمَاذَا طَلَبَ هَذَا الْوَاحِدُ؟ ذُرِّيَّةَ اللهِ. لِهَذَا حَافِظُوا عَلَى أَرْوَاحِكُمْ، وَلا يَغْدُرْ أَحَدٌ بِزَوْجَةِ صِبَاهُ. | ١٥ 15 |
And did not hee make one? yet had hee abundance of spirit: and wherefore one? because he sought a godly seede: therefore keepe your selues in your spirit, and let none trespasse against the wife of his youth.
| وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: إِنِّي أَمْقُتُ الطَّلاقَ وَأَمْقُتُ أَنْ يُغَطِّيَ الرَّجُلُ زَوْجَتَهُ بِجَوْرِهِ، كَمَا يَتَغَطَّى هُوَ بِثَوْبِهِ. لِذَلِكَ احْتَرِسُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ وَلا تَنْكُثُوا عَهْداً. | ١٦ 16 |
If thou hatest her, put her away, sayeth the Lord God of Israel, yet he couereth the iniurie vnder his garment, saieth the Lord of hosts: therefore keepe your selues in your spirite, and transgresse not.
| قَدْ أَتْعَبْتُمُ الرَّبَّ بِكَلامِكُمْ، وَمَابَرِحْتُمْ تَتَسَاءَلُونَ: «كَيْفَ أَتْعَبْنَاهُ؟» أَتْعَبْتُمُوهُ بِقَوْلِكُمْ: «كُلُّ مَنْ يَرْتَكِبُ الشَّرَّ هُوَ صَالِحٌ فِي عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ وَهُوَ يُسَرُّ بِهِمْ»، أَوْ بِسُؤَالِكُمْ: «أَيْنَ هُوَ إِلَهُ الْعَدْلِ؟» | ١٧ 17 |
Yee haue wearied the Lord with your woordes: yet yee say, Wherein haue we wearied him? When ye say, Euery one that doeth euill, is good in the sight of the Lord, and he deliteth in them. Or where is the God of iudgement?
