عَدَد 11
| وَرَاحَ الشَّعْبُ يَتَذَمَّرُ فِي مَسْمَعِ الرَّبِّ وَكَأَنَّ شَرّاً أَصَابَهُمْ، فَاحْتَدَمَ غَضَبُ الرَّبِّ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَانْدَلَعَتْ فِيهِمْ نَارُهُ وَأَحْرَقَتْ طَرَفَ الْمُخَيَّمِ، | ١ 1 |
The people were complaining in the ears of the LORD. When the LORD heard it, his anger burned; and the LORD’s fire burned among them, and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.
| فَصَرَخُوا إِلَى مُوسَى، فَصَلَّى مُوسَى إِلَى الرَّبِّ فَخَمِدَتِ النَّارُ، | ٢ 2 |
The people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to the LORD, and the fire abated.
| فَدُعِيَ ذَلِكَ الْمَكَانُ «تَبْعِيرَةَ» (وَمَعْنَاهُ: اشْتِعَالٌ) لأَنَّ نَارَ الرَّبِّ اشْتَعَلَتْ فِيهِمْ. | ٣ 3 |
The name of that place was called Taberah, because the LORD’s fire burned among them.
| وَاشْتَهَى أَخْلاطُ الأُمَمِ الْمُقِيمُونَ بَيْنَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، مِمَّنْ خَرَجُوا مَعَهُمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ، طَعَامَ مِصْرَ، فَعَادَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ يَبْكُونَ قَائِلِينَ: «مَنْ يُطْعِمُنَا لَحْماً؟ | ٤ 4 |
The mixed multitude that was among them lusted exceedingly; and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, “Who will give us meat to eat?
| لَقَدْ تَذَكَّرْنَا سَمَكَ مِصْرَ الَّذِي كُنَّا نَأْكُلُهُ مَجَّاناً، وَالقِثَّاءَ وَالْبَطِّيخَ وَالْكُرَّاتَ وَالْبَصَلَ وَالثُّومَ، | ٥ 5 |
We remember the fish, which we ate in Egypt for nothing; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlic;
| أَمَّا الآنَ فَقَدْ فَقَدْنَا شَهِيَّتَنَا وَهُزِلْنَا، وَلَيْسَ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِنَا سِوَى هَذَا الْمَنِّ». | ٦ 6 |
but now we have lost our appetite. There is nothing at all except this manna to look at.”
| وَكَانَ الْمَنُّ فِي حَجْمِ بُذُورِ الْكُزْبَرَةِ، وَشَكْلُهُ مُمَاثِلاً لِلْمُقْلِ. | ٧ 7 |
The manna was like coriander seed, and it looked like bdellium.
| وَكَانَ الشَّعْبُ يَطُوفُونَ لِيَجْمَعُوهُ ثُمَّ يَطْحَنُونَهُ بِالرَّحَى أَوْ يَدُقُّونَهُ فِي الْهَاوَنِ وَيَطْبُخُونَهُ فِي الْقُدُورِ أَوْ يَخْبِزُونَهُ عَلَى حِجَارَةٍ مُحَمَّاةٍ. وَكَانَ طَعْمُهُ كَطَعْمِ قَطَائِفَ بِزَيْتٍ. | ٨ 8 |
The people went around, gathered it, and ground it in mills, or beat it in mortars, and boiled it in pots, and made cakes of it. Its taste was like the taste of fresh oil.
| وَكَانَ الْمَنُّ يَنْزِلُ بِنُزُولِ النَّدَى عَلَى الْمُخَيَّمِ فِي أَثْنَاءِ اللَّيْلِ. | ٩ 9 |
When the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ مُوسَى بُكَاءَ جَمِيعِ أَفْرَادِ الشَّعْبِ، كُلٍّ أَمَامَ بَابِ خَيْمَتِهِ، وَرَأَى احْتِدَامَ غَضَبِ الرَّبِّ الشَّدِيدِ اعْتَرَاهُ الاسْتِيَاءُ. | ١٠ 10 |
Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, every man at the door of his tent; and the LORD’s anger burned greatly; and Moses was displeased.
| فَقَالَ مُوسَى لِلرَّبِّ: «لَمَاذَا أَسَأْتَ إِلَى عَبْدِكَ وَلَمْ تَرْضَ عَنْهُ حَتَّى إِنَّكَ حَمَّلْتَهُ مَسْؤولِيَّةَ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ؟ | ١١ 11 |
Moses said to the LORD, “Why have you treated your servant so badly? Why have not I found favor in your sight, that you lay the burden of all this people on me?
| أَلَعَلِّي حَبِلْتُ بِهِ أَوْ وَلَدْتُهُ، حَتَّى تَقُولَ لِي احْمِلْهُ فِي حِضْنِكَ كَمَا يَحْمِلُ الْمُرَبِّي الرَّضِيعَ، وَقُدْهُ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَعَدْتَ بِها آبَاءَهُ. | ١٢ 12 |
Have I conceived all this people? Have I brought them out, that you should tell me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse carries a nursing infant, to the land which you swore to their fathers’?
| مِنْ أَيْنَ أَجِيءُ بِلَحْمٍ يَكْفِي جَمِيعَ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ؟ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَبْكُونَ إِلَيَّ قَائِلِينَ: أَعْطِنَا لَحْماً لِنَأْكُلَ. | ١٣ 13 |
Where could I get meat to give all these people? For they weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat, that we may eat.’
| إِنَّنِي عَاجِزٌ عَنْ حَمْلِ عِبْءِ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ وَحْدِي لأَنَّهُ ثَقِيلٌ عَلَيَّ. | ١٤ 14 |
I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.
| إِنْ كُنْتَ سَتُعَامِلُنِي هَكَذَا، فَاقْتُلْنِي، إِنْ حَظِيتُ بِرِضَاكَ، فَلا أَشْهَدُ بَلِيَّتِي». | ١٥ 15 |
If you treat me this way, please kill me right now, if I have found favor in your sight; and do not let me see my wretchedness.”
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «اجْمَعْ إِلَيَّ سَبْعِينَ رَجُلاً مِنَ رُؤَسَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِمَّنْ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُمْ حَقّاً شُيُوخُ الشَّعْبِ وَعُرَفَاؤُهُ، وَأَقْبِلْ بِهِمْ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ لِيَمْثُلُوا مَعَكَ هُنَاكَ. | ١٦ 16 |
The LORD said to Moses, “Gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and officers over them; and bring them to the Tent of Meeting, that they may stand there with you.
| فَأَنْزِلَ وَأُخَاطِبَكَ هُنَاكَ، وَآخُذَ مِنَ الرُّوحِ الَّذِي عَلَيْكَ وَأَضَعَ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَيُعِينُونَكَ فِي حَمْلِ مَسْؤولِيَّةِ الشَّعْبِ، فَلا تَحْمِلُهَا أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ. | ١٧ 17 |
I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit which is on you, and will put it on them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you do not bear it yourself alone.
| وَقُلْ لِلشَّعْبِ، أَنْ يَتَقَدَّسُوا لِلْغَدِ، فَيَأْكُلُوا لَحْماً، لأَنَّكُمْ قَدْ بَكَيْتُمْ فِي أُذُنَي الرَّبِّ مُتَسَائِلِينَ: مَنْ يُطْعِمُنَا لَحْماً؟ لَقَدْ كَانَ لَنَا خَيْرٌ فِي مِصْرَ. إِنَّ الرَّبَّ سَيُعْطِيكُمْ لَحْماً فَتَأْكُلُونَ. | ١٨ 18 |
“Say to the people, ‘Sanctify yourselves in preparation for tomorrow, and you will eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, “Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt.” Therefore the LORD will give you meat, and you will eat.
| وَسَتَأْكُلُونَهُ لَا لِيَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَلا لِيَوْمَيْنِ، وَلا لِخَمْسَةِ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ لِعَشْرَةِ أَيَّامٍ وَلا لِعِشْرِينَ يَوْماً، | ١٩ 19 |
You will not eat just one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days, or twenty days,
| بَلْ لِشَهْرٍ كَامِلٍ إِلَى أَنْ تَعَافُوهُ وَيَخْرُجَ مِنْ أُنُوفِكُمْ، لأَنَّكُمْ رَفَضْتُمُ الرَّبَّ الَّذِي فِي وَسَطِكُمْ، وَبَكَيْتُمْ لَدَيْهِ قَائِلِينَ: لِمَاذَا خَرَجْنَا مِنْ مِصْرَ؟» | ٢٠ 20 |
but a whole month, until it comes out at your nostrils, and it is loathsome to you; because you have rejected the LORD who is among you, and have wept before him, saying, “Why did we come out of Egypt?”’”
| فَقَالَ مُوسَى: «هَذَا الشَّعْبُ الَّذِي أَنَا قَائِمٌ فِي وَسَطِهِ نَحْوَ سِتِّ مِئَةِ أَلْفِ رَجُلٍ، مَاعَدَا النَّسَاءَ وَالأَطْفَالَ، وَأَنْتَ تَقُولُ إِنَّكَ سَتُعْطِيهِمْ لَحْماً لِيَأْكُلُوا شَهْراً كَامِلاً، | ٢١ 21 |
Moses said, “The people, among whom I am, are six hundred thousand men on foot; and you have said, ‘I will give them meat, that they may eat a whole month.’
| فَمَهْمَا ذُبِحَ مِنْ غَنَمٍ وَبَقَرٍ أَيَكْفِيهِمْ؟ أَمْ يَكْفِيهِمْ لَوْ جُمِعَ كُلُّ سَمَكِ الْبَحْرِ؟» | ٢٢ 22 |
Shall flocks and herds be slaughtered for them, to be sufficient for them? Shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to be sufficient for them?”
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «هَلْ تَعْجَزُ يَدُ الرَّبِّ؟ انْتَظِرِ الآنَ لِتَرَى إِنْ كَانَ يَتَحَقَّقُ كَلامِي أَمْ لا». | ٢٣ 23 |
The LORD said to Moses, “Has the LORD’s hand grown short? Now you will see whether my word will happen to you or not.”
| فَخَرجَ مُوسَى وَكَلَّمَ الشَّعْبَ بِمَا قَالَهُ الرَّبُّ، وَجَمَعَ سَبْعِينَ رَجُلاً مِنْ رُؤَسَائِهِمْ وَأَوْقَفَهُمْ حَوْلَ الْخَيْمَةِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Moses went out, and told the people the LORD’s words; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them around the Tent.
| فَنَزَلَ الرَّبُّ فِي سَحَابَةٍ وَخَاطَبَهُ، وَأَخَذَ مِنَ الرُّوحِ الْحَالِّ عَلَيْهِ وَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى السَّبْعِينَ رَئِيساً. فَلَمَّا حَلَّ عَلَيْهِمِ الرُّوحُ تَنَبَّأُوا لِفَتْرَةٍ وَتَوَقَّفُوا. | ٢٥ 25 |
The LORD came down in the cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was on him, and put it on the seventy elders. When the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied, but they did so no more.
| وَكَانَ قَدْ بَقِيَ اثْنَانِ مِنَ الشُّيُوخِ الْمُسَجَّلِينَ بَيْنَ السَّبْعِينَ فِي الْمُخَيَّمِ لَمْ يَأْتِيَا إِلَى الْخَيْمَةِ، اسْمُ أَحَدِهِمَا أَلْدَادُ، وَاسْمُ الآخَرِ مِيدَادُ. فَحَلَّ عَلَيْهِمَا الرُّوحُ فَتَنَبَّآ فِي الْمُخَيَّمِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
But two men remained in the camp. The name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad; and the Spirit rested on them. They were of those who were written, but had not gone out to the Tent; and they prophesied in the camp.
| فَأَسْرَعَ أَحَدُ الشُّبَّانِ وَأَخْبَرَ مُوسَى بِذَلِكَ، | ٢٧ 27 |
A young man ran, and told Moses, and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp!”
| فَقَالَ يَشُوعُ بْنُ نُونَ، مُسَاعِدُ مُوسَى مُنْذُ حَدَاثَتِهِ: «يَا سَيِّدِي، امْنَعْهُمَا!» | ٢٨ 28 |
Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his chosen men, answered, “My lord Moses, forbid them!”
| غَيْرَ أَنَّ مُوسَى قَالَ لَهُ: «هَلْ مَلَأَتْكَ غَيْرَةٌ عَلَيَّ؟ لَيْتَ كُلَّ شَعْبِ الرَّبِّ يُصْبِحُونَ أَنْبِيَاءَ يَحِلُّ عَلَيْهِمِ الرَّبُّ بِرُوحِهِ». | ٢٩ 29 |
Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD’s people were prophets, that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!”
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ مُوسَى وَشُيُوخُ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى الْمُخَيَّمِ. | ٣٠ 30 |
Moses went into the camp, he and the elders of Israel.
| فَهَبَّتْ رِيحٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ سَاقَتِ السُّمَانِيَ مِنْ جِهَةِ الْبَحْرِ وَأَسْقَطَتْهَا عَلَى الْمُخَيَّمِ، نَحْوَ مَسِيرَةِ يَوْمٍ، مِنْ كِلا جِهَتَيْهِ وَحَوَالَيْهِ، وَتَرَاكَمَ حَتَّى بَلَغَ ارْتِفَاعُهُ ذِرَاعَيْنِ (نَحْوَ مِتْرٍ) فَوْقَ وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ. | ٣١ 31 |
A wind from the LORD went out and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, about a day’s journey on this side, and a day’s journey on the other side, around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the earth.
| فَهَبَّ الشَّعْبُ طَوَالَ ذَلِكَ النَّهَارِ وَاللَّيْلِ، وَكُلَّ نَهَارِ الْيَوْمِ التَّالِي يَلْتَقِطُونَ السُّمَانِيَ. فَكَانَتْ أَقَلُّ كَمِّيَّةٍ جُمِعَتْ حَوَالَيْ عَشْرَةِ حَوَامِرَ (نَحْوَ أَلْفَيْنِ وَأَرْبَعَ مِئَةِ لِتْرٍ)، ثُمَّ نَشَرُوهَا حَوْلَ الْمُخَيَّمِ لِتَجِفَّ. | ٣٢ 32 |
The people rose up all that day, and all of that night, and all the next day, and gathered the quails. He who gathered least gathered ten homers; and they spread them all out for themselves around the camp.
| وَإِذْ كَانُوا مَازَالُوا يَمْضُغُونَ اللَّحْمَ، احْتَدَمَ غَضَبُ الرَّبِّ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَأَفْشَى بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَأً مُمِيتاً، | ٣٣ 33 |
While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the LORD’s anger burned against the people, and the LORD struck the people with a very great plague.
| فَدَعُوا الْمَكَانَ «قَبَرُوتَ هَتَّأَوَةَ» (وَمَعْنَاهُ قُبُورُ الشَّهْوَةِ) لأَنَّهُمْ هُنَاكَ دَفَنُوا الْقَوْمَ الْمُشْتَهِينَ. | ٣٤ 34 |
The name of that place was called Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who lusted.
| ثُمَّ ارْتَحَلَ الشَّعْبُ مِنْ قَبَرُوتَ هَتَّأَوَةَ إِلَى حَضَيْرُوتَ وَمَكَثُوا فِيهَا. | ٣٥ 35 |
From Kibroth Hattaavah the people traveled to Hazeroth; and they stayed at Hazeroth.
