< عَدَد 3 >

وَهَذِهِ هِيَ مَوَالِيدُ هَروُنَ وَمُوسَى يَوْمَ خَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي جَبَلِ سِينَاءَ: ١ 1
These are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the Lord spoke to Moses in mount Sinai.
هَذِهِ هِيَ أَسْمَاءُ أَبْنَاءِ هَرُونَ: نَادَابُ الْبِكْرُ، وَأَبِيهُو، وَأَلِعَازَارُ، وَإِيثَامَارُ، ٢ 2
And these the names of the sons of Aaron: his firstborn Nadab, then Abiu, and Eleazar, and Ithamar.
الَّذِينَ كَانُوا كَهَنَةً مَمْسُوحِينَ تَكَرَّسُوا لِلْكَهَنُوتِ. ٣ 3
These the names of the sons of Aaron the priests that were anointed, and whose hands were filled and consecrated, to do the functions of priesthood.
إِلّا أَنَّ نَادَابَ وَأَبِيهُو مَاتَا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الرَّبِّ عِنْدَمَا قَرَّبَا نَاراً غَرِيبَةً أَمَامَهُ فِي صَحْرَاءِ سِينَاءَ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمَا بَنُون. وَأَمَّا أَلِعَازَارُ وَإِيثَامَارُ فَقَدْ قَامَا بِخِدْمَةِ الْكَهَنُوتِ تَحْتَ رِعَايَةِ أَبِيهِمَا هَرُونَ. ٤ 4
Now Nadab and Abiu died, without children, when they offered strange fire before the Lord, in the desert of Sinai: and Eleazar and Ithamar performed the priestly office in the presence of Aaron their father.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: ٥ 5
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
«أَحْضِرْ سِبْطَ لاوِي لِيَمْثُلُوا أَمَامَ هَرُونَ الْكَاهِنِ وَيَخْدِمُوهُ. ٦ 6
Bring the tribe of Levi, and make them stand in the sight of Aaron the priest to minister to him, and let them watch,
وَيُحَافِظُوا عَلَى شَعَائِرِهِ وَشَعَائِرِ كُلِّ الشَّعْبِ أَمَامَ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَيَقُومُوا بِخِدْمَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ، ٧ 7
And observe whatsoever appertaineth to the service of the multitude before the tabernacle of the testimony,
وَيَحْرُسُوا كُلَّ أَمْتِعَةِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَيَنُوبُوا عَنِ الشَّعْبِ فِي تَأْدِيَةِ وَاجِبَاتِ خِدْمَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ. ٨ 8
And let them keep the vessels of the tabernacle, serving in the ministry thereof.
وَلْيَكُنِ اللّاوِيُّونَ تَحْتَ إِمْرَةِ هَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ هِبَةً لَهُ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٩ 9
And thou shalt give the Levites for a gift,
أَمَّا هَرُونُ وَأَبْنَاؤُهُ فَهُمْ وَحْدُهُمْ يَقُومُونَ بِخِدْمَةِ الْكَهَنُوتِ، وَأَيُّ وَاحِدٍ سِوَاهُمْ يَقْتَرِبُ مِنَ الْمَقْدِسِ يُقْتَلُ». ١٠ 10
To Aaron and to his sons, to whom they are delivered by the children of Israel. But thou shalt appoint Aaron and his sons over the service of priesthood. The stranger that approacheth to minister, shall be put to death.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: ١١ 11
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
«هَا إِنِّي قَدْ أَفْرَزْتُ اللّاوِيِّينَ مِنْ بَيْنِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بَدَلاً مِنْ أَبْكَارِ الشَّعْبِ، فَيَكُونُ اللّاوِيُّونَ خَاصَّتِي، ١٢ 12
I have taken the Levites from the children of Israel, for every firstborn that openeth the womb among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be mine.
لأَنَّ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ مِنْ شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ هُوَ لِي. فَقَدْ أَفْرَزْتُ لِي كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ مُنْذُ أَنْ أَهْلَكْتُ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي دِيَارِ مِصْرَ. لِي يَكُونُونَ. أَنَا الرَّبُّ». ١٣ 13
For every firstborn is mine: since I struck the firstborn in the land of Egypt: I have sanctified to myself whatsoever is firstborn in Israel both of man and beast, they are mine: I am the Lord.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى فِي صَحْرَاءِ سِينَاءَ: ١٤ 14
And the Lord spoke to Moses in the desert of Sinai, saying:
«أَحْصِ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ سِبْطِ لاوِي مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، حَسَبَ بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ وَعَشَائِرِهِمْ». ١٥ 15
Number the sons of Levi by the houses of their fathers and their families, every male from one month and upward.
فَأَحْصَاهُمْ مُوسَى وَفْقاً لأَمْرِ الرَّبِّ. ١٦ 16
Moses numbered them as the Lord had commanded.
وَهَذِهِ هِيَ أَسْمَاءُ أَبْنَاءِ لاوِي: جَرْشُونُ وَقَهَاتُ وَمَرَارِي. ١٧ 17
And there were found sons of Levi by their names, Gerson and Caath and Merari.
أَمَّا اسْمَا ابْنَيْ جَرْشُونَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمَا، فَهُمَا: لِبْنِي وَشِمْعِي ١٨ 18
The sons of Gerson: Lebni and Semei.
وَبَنُو قَهَاتَ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ هُمْ: عَمْرَامُ وَيِصْهَارُ وَحَبْرُونُ وَعُزِّيئِيلُ. ١٩ 19
The sons of Caath: Amram, and Jesaar, Hebron and Oziel:
وَابْنَا مَرَارِي حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمَا هُمَا مَحْلِي وَمُوشِي. هَذِهِ هِيَ عَشَائِرُ اللّاوِيِّينَ وَفْقاً لِبُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ. ٢٠ 20
The sons of Merari: Moholi and Musi.
فَقَدْ تَفَرَّعَ عَنْ جَرْشُونَ عَشِيرَتَا اللِّبْنِيِّينَ وَالشِّمْعِيِّينَ. هَاتَانِ هُمَا عَشِيرَتَا الْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ. ٢١ 21
Of Gerson were two families, the Lebnites, and the Semeites:
وَكَانَ عَدَدُ الذُّكُورِ الْمُحْصَيْنَ مِنْهُمَا مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ وَمَا فَوْقُ، سَبْعَةَ آلافٍ وَخَمْسَ مِئَةٍ. ٢٢ 22
Of which were numbered, people of the male sex from one month and upward, seven thousand five hundred.
وَقَدْ خَيَّمَتْ عَشِيرَتَا الْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ وَرَاءَ الْمَسْكَنِ إِلَى الْغَرْبِ، ٢٣ 23
These shall pitch behind the tabernacle on the west,
وَكَانَ رَئِيسُهُمَا أَلِيَاسَافَ بْنَ لايِلَ ٢٤ 24
Under their prince Eliasaph the son of Lael.
وَعُهِدَ إِلَى الْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ بِحِرَاسَةِ الْمَسْكَنِ فِي خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَالْخَيْمَةِ وَغِطَائِهَا وَسَتَائِرِ بَابِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، ٢٥ 25
And their charge shall be in the tabernacle of the covenant:
وَسَتَائِرِ الدَّارِ وَسِتَارَةِ بَابِ الدَّارِ الَّتِي حَوْلَ الْمَسْكَنِ وَحَوْلَ جَوَانِبِ الْمَذْبَحِ وَحِبَالِهِ مَعَ كُلِّ خِدْمَتِهِ. ٢٦ 26
The tabernacle itself and the cover thereof, the hanging that is drawn before the doors of the tabernacle of the covenant, and the curtains of the court: the hanging also that is hanged in the entry of the court of the tabernacle, and whatsoever belongeth to the rite of the altar, the cords of the tabernacle, and all the furniture thereof.
وَتَفَرَّعَ عَنْ قَهَاتَ عَشَائِرُ الْعَمْرَامِيِّينَ وَالْيِصْهَارِيِّينَ وَالْحَبْرُونِيِّينَ وَالْعُزِّيئِيلِيِّينَ. هَذِهِ هِيَ عَشَائِرُ الْقَهَاتِيِّينَ. ٢٧ 27
Of the kindred of Caath come the families of the Amramites and Jesaarites and Hebronites and Ozielites. These are the families of the Caathites reckoned up by their names:
فَكَانَ عَدَدُ الذُّكُورِ الْمُحْصَيْنَ مِنْهُمْ مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، ثَمَانِيَةَ آلافٍ وَسِتَّ مِئَةٍ. وَمُهِمَّتُهُمْ حِرَاسَةُ الْقُدْسِ. ٢٨ 28
All of the male sex from one month and upward, eight thousand six hundred: they shall have the guard of the sanctuary,
وَتُخَيِّمُ عَشَائِرُ بَنِي قَهَاتَ فِي جَنُوبِيِّ الْمَسْكَنِ، ٢٩ 29
And shall camp on the south side.
وَكَانَ رَئِيسُهَا أَلِيصَافَانَ بْنَ عُزِّيئِيلَ. ٣٠ 30
And their prince shall be Elisaphan the son of Oziel:
وَهُمْ يَتَوَلَّوْنَ حِرَاسَةَ التَّابُوتِ وَالْمَائِدَةِ وَالْمَنَارَةِ وَالْمَذْبَحَيْنِ وَأَمْتِعَةِ الْقُدْسِ الَّتِي يَخْدُمُونَ بِها، وَالْحِجَابِ وَكُلِّ مَا يَتَعَلَّقُ بِهِ. ٣١ 31
And they shall keep the ark, and the table and the candlestick, the altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary, wherewith they minister, and the veil, and all the furniture of this kind.
أَمَّا رَئِيسُ رُؤَسَاءِ اللّاوِيِّينَ أَلِعَازَارُ بْنُ هَرُونَ الْكَاهِنِ فَيَتَوَلَّى أَيْضاً أَمْرَ حُرَّاسِ حِرَاسَةِ الْقُدْسِ. ٣٢ 32
And the prince of the princes of the Levites, Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, shall be over them that watch for the guard of the sanctuary.
وَتَفَرَّعَ عَنْ مَرَارِي عَشِيرَتَا الْمَحْلِيِّينَ وَالْمُوشِيِّينَ. هَاتَانِ هُمَا عَشِيرَتَا مَرَارِي. ٣٣ 33
And of Merari are the families of the Moholites, and Musites, reckoned up by their names:
فَكَانَ عَدَدُ الذُّكُورِ الْمُحْصَيْنَ مِنْهُمَا مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، سِتَّةَ آلافٍ وَمِئَتَيْنِ، ٣٤ 34
All of the male kind from one month and upward, six thousand two hundred.
وَرَئِيسُهُمَا صُورِيئِيلُ بْنُ أَبِيحَايِلَ. وَتُخَيِّمَانِ إِلَى شِمَالِيِّ الْمَسْكَنِ. ٣٥ 35
Their prince Suriel the son of Abihaiel: they shall camp on the north side.
وَمُهِمَّةُ أَبْنَاءِ مَرَارِي حِرَاسَةُ أَلْوَاحِ الْمَسْكَنِ وَعَوَارِضِهِ وَقَوَاعِدِهَا وَكُلِّ أَوَانِيهِ وَالْعِنَايَةُ بِها، ٣٦ 36
Under their custody shall be the boards of the tabernacle, and the bars, and the pillars and their sockets, and all things that pertain to this kind of service:
وَأَعْمِدَةِ جَوَانِبِ الدَّارِ وَقَوَاعِدِهَا وَأَوْتَادِهَا وَحِبَالِهَا. ٣٧ 37
And the pillars of the court round about with their sockets, and the pins with their cords.
أَمَّا مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ وَأَبْنَاؤُهُ فَيَنْزِلُونَ قُدَّامَ الْمَسْكَنِ إِلَى الشَّرْقِ لِيَقُومُوا بِحِرَاسَةِ الْمَقْدِسِ نِيَابَةً عَنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَيُّ وَاحِدٍ سِوَاهُمْ يَقْتَرِبُ مِنْهُ يُقْتَلُ. ٣٨ 38
Before the tabernacle of the covenant, that is to say on the east side, shall Moses and Aaron camp, with their sons, having the custody of the sanctuary, in the midst of the children of Israel. What stranger soever cometh unto it, shall be put to death.
فَكَانَ مَجْمُوعُ الْمُحْصَيْنَ مِنْ ذُكُورِ اللّاوِيِّينَ مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، الَّذِينَ أَحْصَاهُمْ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ حَسَبَ عَشَائِرِهِمْ كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ، اثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفاً. ٣٩ 39
All the Levites, that Moses and Aaron numbered according to the precept of the Lord, by their families, of the male kind from one month and upward, were twenty-two thousand.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «أَحْصِ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ ذَكَرٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، وَدَوِّنْ أَسْمَاءَهُمْ جَمِيعاً، ٤٠ 40
And the Lord said to Moses: Number the firstborn of the male sex of the children of Israel, from one month and upward, and thou shalt take the sum of them.
فَتَفْرِزُ لِيَ اللّاوِيِّينَ، أَنَا الرَّبُّ، لِيَكُونُوا لِي بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَذَلِكَ بَهَائِمَ اللّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَهَائِمِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ». ٤١ 41
And thou shalt take the Levites to me for all the firstborn of the children of Israel, I am the Lord: and their cattle for all the firstborn of the cattle of the children of Israel:
فَأَحْصَى مُوسَى أَبْكَارَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ الرَّبُّ، ٤٢ 42
Moses reckoned up, as the Lord had commanded, the firstborn of the children of Israel:
فَكَانَ مَجْمُوعُ عَدَدِ الذُّكُورِ الأَبْكَارِ الْمُحْصَيْنَ، كُلٍّ بِاسْمِهِ، مِنِ ابْنِ شَهْرٍ فَمَا فَوْقُ، اثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفاً وَمِئَتَيْنِ وَثَلاثَةً وَسَبْعِينَ. ٤٣ 43
And the males by their names, from one month and upward, were twenty-two thousand two hundred and seventy-three.
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: ٤٤ 44
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saving:
«أَفْرِزِ اللّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ كُلِّ بِكْرٍ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَذَلِكَ بَهَائِمَ اللّاوِيِّينَ بَدَلَ بَهَائِمِهِمْ، فَيَكُونَ اللّاوِيُّونَ خَاصَّتِي، أَنَا الرَّبَّ. ٤٥ 45
Take the Levites for the firstborn of the children of Israel, and the cattle of the Levites for their cattle, and the Levites shall be mine. I am the Lord.
وَأَمَّا فِدَاءُ الْمِئَتَيْنِ وَالثَّلاثَةِ وَالسَّبْعِينَ مِنْ أَبْكَارِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الزَّائِدِينَ عَنْ عَدَدِ اللّاوِيِّينَ، ٤٦ 46
But for the price of the two hundred and seventy-three, of the firstborn of the children of Israel, that exceed the number of the Levites,
فَتَأْخُذُ عَنْ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ خَمْسَةَ شَوَاقِلَ (نَحْوَ سِتِّينَ جِرَاماً) مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ وَفْقاً لِلْوَزْنِ الْمُعْتَمَدِ فِي الْقُدْسِ فَيَكُونُ كُلُّ عِشْرِينَ جِيرَةً مُعَادِلَةً لِشَاقِلٍ (أَيْ لاثْنَيْ عَشَرَ جِرَاماً). ٤٧ 47
Thou shalt take five sides for every head, according to the weight of the sanctuary. A sicle hath twenty obols.
وَتُعْطِي الْفِضَّةَ لِهَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ فِدْيَةً عَنِ الأَبْكَارِ الزَّائِدِينَ عَنْ عَدَدِ اللّاوِيِّينَ» ٤٨ 48
And then shalt give the money to Aaron and his sons, the price of them that are above.
فَجَمَعَ مُوسَى فِضَّةَ الْفِدْيَةِ مِنَ الزَّائِدِينَ عَنْ عَدَدِ اللّاوِيِّينَ فِدَاءً لَهُمْ. ٤٩ 49
Moses therefore took the money of them that were above, and whom they had redeemed from the Levites,
جَبَاهَا مِنْ أَبْكَارِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَكَانَتْ أَلْفاً وَثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَخَمْسَةً وَسِتِّينَ مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ عَلَى شَاقِلِ الْقُدْسِ (نَحْوَ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ كِيلُو جِرَاماً وَثُلْثٍ). ٥٠ 50
For the firstborn of the children of Israel, one thousand three hundred and sixty-five sicles, according to the weight of the sanctuary,
وَأَعْطَى مُوسَى فِضَّةَ الْفِدْيَةِ لِهَرُونَ وَأَبْنَائِهِ كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ. ٥١ 51
And gave it to Aaron and his sons, according to the word that the Lord had commanded him.
