< صَفَنْيا 3 >
وَيْلٌ لِلْمَدِينَةِ الظَّالِمَةِ الْمُتَمَرِّدَةِ الدَّنِسَةِ، | ١ 1 |
Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!
الَّتِي لَا تُصْغِي لِصَوْتِ أَحَدٍ، وَتَأْبَى التَّقْوِيمَ، وَلا تَتَّكِلُ عَلَى الرَّبِّ، وَلا تَتَقَرَّبُ مِنْ إِلَهِهَا. | ٢ 2 |
She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the LORD; she drew not near to her God.
رُؤَسَاؤُهَا فِي دَاخِلِهَا أُسُودٌ زَائِرَةٌ، وَقُضَاتُهَا كَذِئَابِ الْمَسَاءِ الْجَائِعَةِ الَّتِي لَا تُبْقِي شَيْئاً مِنْ فَرَائِسِهَا إِلَى الصَّبَاحِ. | ٣ 3 |
Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the morrow.
أَنْبِيَاؤُهَا مَغْرُورُونَ وَخَوَنَةٌ، وَكَهَنَتُهَا يُدَنِّسُونَ الْمَقْدِسَ وَيَتَعَدُّونَ عَلَى الشَّرِيعَةِ. | ٤ 4 |
Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ مَا بَرِحَ صِدِّيقاً فِي وَسَطِهَا، لَا يَرْتَكِبُ خَطَأً، وَيُبْدِي فِي كُلِّ صَبَاحٍ عَدْلَهُ وَفِي كُلِّ فَجْرٍ حَقَّهُ. لَا يُخْفِقُ قَطُّ؛ أَمَّا الأَثِيمُ فَلا يَعْرِفُ مَا هُوَ الْخِزْيُ. | ٥ 5 |
The just LORD is in the middle thereof; he will not do iniquity: every morning does he bring his judgment to light, he fails not; but the unjust knows no shame.
اسْتَأْصَلْتُ أُمَماً فَغَدَتْ بُرُوجُهُمْ أَطْلالاً. أَقْفَرْتُ شَوَارِعَهُمْ فَلا يَعْبُرُ بِها أَحَدٌ. صَارَتْ مُدُنُهُمْ خَرَاباً لَا يُقِيمُ فِيهَا إِنْسَانٌ أَوْ سَاكِنٌ. | ٦ 6 |
I have cut off the nations: their towers are desolate; I made their streets waste, that none passes by: their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant.
فَقُلْتُ: لَوْ إِنَّ أَهْلَهَا يَخَافُونَنِي وَيَقْبَلُونَ تَقْوِيمِي، فَلا تُسْتَأْصَلُ مَسَاكِنُهُمْ وَلا يَنْصَبُّ عَلَيْهِمْ كُلُّ غَضَبِي. وَلَكِنَّهُمْ جَدُّوا مُبَكِّرِينَ بِارْتِكَابِ الْفَسَادِ فِي كُلِّ عَمَلٍ أَقْدَمُوا عَلَيْهِ. | ٧ 7 |
I said, Surely you will fear me, you will receive instruction; so their dwelling should not be cut off, howsoever I punished them: but they rose early, and corrupted all their doings.
لِذَلِكَ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: انْتَظِرُونِي لأَنِّي عَزَمْتُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي أَقُومُ فِيهِ كَشَاهِدٍ أَنْ أَجْمَعَ الأُمَمَ وَأَحْشُدَ الْمَمَالِكَ لأَسْكُبَ عَلَيْهِمْ سَخَطِي وَاحْتِدَامَ غَضَبِي، لأَنَّ الأَرْضَ بِكَامِلِهَا سَتُؤْكَلُ بِنَارِ غَيْرَةِ غَيْظِي. | ٨ 8 |
Therefore wait you on me, says the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour on them my indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
عِنْدَئِذٍ أُنَقِّي شِفَاهَ الشَّعْبِ لِيَدْعُوا جَمِيعُهُمْ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ وَيَعْبُدُوهُ جَنْباً إِلَى جَنْبٍ. | ٩ 9 |
For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call on the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent.
فَيُقَرِّبُ إِلَيَّ شَعْبِي الْمُشَتَّتُ ذَبِيحَةً مِنْ وَرَاءِ أَنْهَارِ كُوشٍ حَيْثُ يُقِيمُ الْمُتَضَرِّعُونَ إِلَيَّ. | ١٠ 10 |
From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring my offering.
فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ لَنْ يَلْحَقَكُمُ الْعَارُ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ مَا ارْتَكَبْتُمْ مِنْ أَعْمَالٍ تَمَرَّدْتُمْ بِها عَلَيَّ، لأَنِّي سَأُزِيلُ آنَئِذٍ مِنْ وَسَطِكُمُ الْمُسْتَخِفِّينَ الْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ، فَلا يَبْقَى مُتَشَامِخٌ فِي جَبَلِي الْمُقَدَّسِ. | ١١ 11 |
In that day shall you not be ashamed for all your doings, wherein you have transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the middle of you them that rejoice in your pride, and you shall no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.
إِنَّمَا أُبْقِي بَيْنَكُمْ شَعْباً مُتَوَاضِعاً فَقِيراً يَتَوَكَّلُونَ عَلَى اسْمِ الرَّبِّ. | ١٢ 12 |
I will also leave in the middle of you an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD.
وَلَنْ يَرْتَكِبَ بَقِيَّةُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الإِثْمَ، وَلا يَنْطِقُونَ بِالْكَذِبِ، وَلَيْسَ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِمْ غِشٌّ، بَلْ يَعِيشُونَ آمِنِينَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُهَدِّدَهُمْ أَحَدٌ. | ١٣ 13 |
The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
اشْدِي يَا ابْنَةَ صِهْيَوْنَ وَاهْتُفْ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، ابْتَهِجِي وَتَهَلَّلِي يَا ابْنَةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ١٤ 14 |
Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ رَفَعَ عَنْكِ حُكْمَ قَضَائِهِ وَرَدَّ عَنْكِ أَعْدَاءَكِ. إِنَّ الرَّبَّ مَلِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ هُوَ فِي وَسَطِكِ، فَلا تَخْشَيْ شَرّاً فِي مَا بَعْدُ. | ١٥ 15 |
The LORD has taken away your judgments, he has cast out your enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the middle of you: you shall not see evil any more.
وَيُقَالُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ لأُورُشَلِيمَ: لَا تَخَافِي يَا صِهْيَوْنُ، وَلا تَرْتَخِ يَدَاكِ. | ١٦ 16 |
In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear you not: and to Zion, Let not your hands be slack.
فَالرَّبُّ إِلَهُكِ فِي وَسَطِكِ، جَبَّارٌ يُخَلِّصُ. يُسَرُّ فَرَحاً بِكِ، وَيُجَدِّدُ بِمَحَبَّتِهِ حَيَاتَكِ، وَيَبْتَهِجُ بِكِ مُتَرَنِّماً. | ١٧ 17 |
The LORD your God in the middle of you is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over you with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over you with singing.
وَكَمَا فِي يَوْمِ مَوْسِمِ عِيدٍ، أُزِيلُ عَنْكِ بَلايَاكِ، فَلا تَتَحَمَّلِينَ مِنْ أَجْلِهَا أَيَّ عَارٍ. | ١٨ 18 |
I will gather them that are sorrowful for the solemn assembly, who are of you, to whom the reproach of it was a burden.
فِي ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ أُعَاقِبُ الَّذِينَ ضَايَقُوكِ، وَأُخَلِّصُ الأَعْرَجَ، وَأُعِيدُ الْمَسْبِيَّ، وَأُغْدِقُ عَلَيْهِمْ مَدْحاً وَشَرَفاً فِي كُلِّ أَرْضٍ تَعَرَّضُوا فِيهَا لِلْخِزْيِ. | ١٩ 19 |
Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict you: and I will save her that halts, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.
فِي ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ أَجْمَعُكُمْ مِنَ الشَّتَاتِ وَأُعِيدُكُمْ إِلَى مَوْطِنِكُمْ، وَأَجْعَلُ لَكُمْ مَقَاماً شَرِيفاً مَحْمُوداً بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ شُعُوبِ الأَرْضِ، حِينَ أَرُدُّ لَكُمُ ازْدِهَارَكُمْ. هَكَذَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ. | ٢٠ 20 |
At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, said the LORD.
