Jeremiah 33

1 While Jeremiah was still confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD came to him a second time:

١ وَأَوْحَى الرَّبُّ ثَانِيَةً بِهَذِهِ النُّبُوءَةِ إِلَى إرْمِيَا، وَهُوَ مَازَالَ مُعْتَقَلاً فِي دَارِ السِّجْنِ قَائِلاً:

2 “Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD who formed it and established it, the LORD is His name:

٢ «هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ صَانِعُ الأَرْضِ، الرَّبُّ الَّذِي صَوَّرَهَا وَثَبَّتَهَا، يَهْوَه اسْمُهُ

3 Call to Me, and I will answer and show you great and unsearchable things you do not know.

٣ ’ادْعُنِي فَأُجِيبَكَ وَأُطْلِعَكَ عَلَى عَظَائِمَ وَغَرَائِبَ لَمْ تَعْرِفْهَا‘.

4 For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says about the houses of this city and the palaces of the kings of Judah that have been torn down for defense against the siege ramps and the sword:

٤ لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ بُيُوتِ هَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَعَنْ قُصُورِ مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا الَّتِي تَمَّ هَدْمُهَا، لِيُقَامَ مِنْهَا سُورُ دِفَاعٍ ضِدَّ مَتَارِيسِ الْحِصَارِ وَالْمَجَانِيقِ.

5 The Chaldeans are coming to fight and to fill those places with the corpses of the men I will strike down in My anger and in My wrath. I have hidden My face from this city because of all its wickedness.

٥ فِي الْقِتَالِ النَّاشِبِ مَعَ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ سَيَمْلأُونَ الْمُدُنَ بِجُثَثِ الْقَتْلَى الَّذِينَ ضَرَبْتُهُمْ فِي احْتِدَامِ غَضَبِي وَغَيْظِي، لأَنِّي قَدْ حَجَبْتُ وَجْهِي عَنْ هَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةِ لِشَرِّهِمْ.

6 Nevertheless, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal its people and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.

٦ وَلَكِنْ لَا أَلْبَثُ أَنْ أَرُدَّ لَهَا الْعَافِيَةَ وَالشِّفَاءَ. أُبْرِئُهُمْ وَأُبْدِي لَهُمْ وَفْرَةَ السَّلامِ وَالأَمْنِ.

7 I will restore Judah and Israel from captivity and will rebuild them as in former times.

٧ وَأَرُدُّ سَبْيَ يَهُوذَا وَإِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَبْنِيهِمْ كَمَا فِي الْعَهْدِ السَّابِقِ.

8 And I will cleanse them from all the iniquity they have committed against Me, and will forgive all their sins of rebellion against Me.

٨ وَأُطَهِّرُهُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ إِثْمِهِمِ الَّذِي اقْتَرَفُوهُ فِي حَقِّي، وَأَصْفَحُ عَنْ ذُنُوبِهِمِ الَّتِي أَخْطَأُوا بِها إِلَيَّ، وَعَنْ جَمِيعِ تَعَدِّيَاتِهِمْ عَلَيَّ.

9 So this city will bring Me renown, joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, who will hear of all the good I do for it. They will tremble in awe because of all the goodness and prosperity that I will provide for it.

٩ وَتُصْبِحُ هَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةُ مَبْعَثَ سُرُورٍ لِي، وَتَسْبِحَةً وَافْتِخَاراً لَدَى جَمِيعِ أُمَمِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي يَبْلُغُهَا كُلُّ مَا أَسْدَيْتُهُ مِنْ خَيْرٍ إِلَيْهَا، فَتَخَافُ وَتَرْتَعِدُ بِفَضْلِ مَا أَغْدَقْتُهُ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ إحْسَانٍ وَازْدِهَارٍ.

10 This is what the LORD says: In this place you say is a wasteland without man or beast, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem that are deserted—inhabited by neither man nor beast—there will be heard again

١٠ وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي تَقُولُونَ عَنْهُ إِنَّهُ خَرَابٌ هَجَرَهُ الإِنْسَانُ وَالْحَيَوَانُ، وَفِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا وَشَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ الْمُوْحِشَةِ الْمُقْفِرَةِ مِنَ النَّاسِ، وَالَّتِي لَا يُقِيمُ فِيهَا حَيَوَانٌ، سَتَتَرَدَّدُ فِيهَا ثَانِيَةً

11 the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, and the voices of those bringing thank offerings into the house of the LORD, saying: ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good; His loving devotion endures forever.’ For I will restore the land from captivity as in former times, says the LORD.

١١ أَصْوَاتُ الطَّرَبِ وَالسُّرُورِ، وَهُتَافُ الْعَرِيسِ وَالْعَرُوسِ، وَأَصْوَاتُ الْمُقْبِلِينَ إِلَى هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ بِقَرَابِينِ الشُّكْرِ الْقَائِلِينَ: احْمَدُوا الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ صَالِحٌ وَرَحْمَتُهُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ تَدُومُ، لأَنِّي أَرُدُّ سَبْيَ الأَرْضِ فَتُصْبِحُ آهِلَةً كَالأَيَّامِ الْخَوَالِي.

12 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: In this desolate place, without man or beast, and in all its cities, there will once more be pastures for shepherds to rest their flocks.

١٢ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ الْخَرِبِ الْمُقْفِرِ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ وَالْحَيَوَانِ، وَفِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِهِ، سَتَكُونُ مَسَاكِنُ لِلرُّعَاةِ يُرْبِضُونَ فِيهَا قُطْعَانَهُمْ.

13 In the cities of the hill country, the foothills, and the Negev, in the land of Benjamin and the cities surrounding Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of the one who counts them, says the LORD.

١٣ وَفِي مُدُنِ الْمَنَاطِقِ الْجَبَلِيَّةِ وَمُدُنِ السُّفُوحِ الْقَرِيبَةِ، وَمُدُنِ النَّقَبِ، وَفِي أَرْضِ بِنْيَامِينَ وَفِي الْقُرَى الْمُجَاوِرَةِ لأُورُشَلِيمَ، وَفِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا تَمُرُّ الْغَنَمُ أَمَامَ الْمُحْصِي».

14 Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will fulfill the gracious promise that I have spoken to the house of Israel and the house of Judah.

١٤ «هَا أَيَّامٌ مُقْبِلَةٌ»، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، «أُتَمِّمُ فِيهَا الْوَعْدَ الَّذِي تَعَهَّدْتُ بِهِ لِذُرِّيَّةِ يَهُوذَا وَلِذُرِّيَّةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

15 In those days and at that time I will cause to sprout for David a righteous Branch, and He will administer justice and righteousness in the land.

١٥ فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ أُنْبِتُ مِنْ نَسْلِ دَاوُدَ غُصْنَ بِرٍّ يُجْرِي عَدْلاً وَبِرّاً فِي الأَرْضِ.

16 In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely, and this is the name by which it will be called: The LORD Our Righteousness.

١٦ فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ يَخْلُصُ يَهُوذَا، وَتَسْكُنُ أُورُشَلِيمُ آمِنَةً، وَهَذَا هُوَ الاسْمُ الَّذِي تُدْعَى بِهِ: الرَّبُّ بِرُّنَا.

17 For this is what the LORD says: David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel,

١٧ لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: لَنْ يَنْقَرِضَ مِنْ نَسْلِ دَاُودَ رَجُلٌ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى عَرْشِ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

18 nor will the priests who are Levites ever fail to have a man before Me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to present sacrifices.”

١٨ وَلَنْ يَنْقَرِضَ مِنْ أَمَامِي رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْكَهَنَةِ وَاللّاوِيِّينَ يُصْعِدُ مُحْرَقَةً، وَيُقَدِّمُ تَقْدِمَةَ حِنْطَةٍ، وَيُقَرِّبُ ذَبِيحَةً مَدَى الدَّهْرِ».

19 And the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:

١٩ ثُمَّ أَوْحَى الرَّبُّ إِلَى إرْمِيَا بِهَذِهِ النُّبُوءَةِ:

20 “This is what the LORD says: If you can break My covenant with the day and My covenant with the night, so that day and night cease to occupy their appointed time,

٢٠ «هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ تَنْقُضُوا عَهْدِي مَعَ النَّهَارِ، وَمَعَ اللَّيْلِ، بِحَيْثُ لَا يَحُلُّ النَّهَارُ وَاللَّيْلُ فِي أَوَانِهِمَا،

21 then My covenant may also be broken with David My servant and with My ministers the Levites who are priests, so that David will not have a son to reign on his throne.

٢١ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ تَنْقُضُوا عَهْدِي مَعَ عَبْدِي دَاوُدَ، فَلا يَكُونَ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ ابْنٌ يَمْلِكُ عَلَى عَرْشِهِ، وَمَعَ الْكَهَنَةِ وَاللّاوِيِّينَ خُدَّامِي.

22 As the hosts of heaven cannot be counted and as the sand on the seashore cannot be measured, so too will I multiply the descendants of My servant David and the Levites who minister before Me.”

٢٢ وَأُكَثِّرُ ذُرِّيَّةَ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي وَذَرَارِي اللّاوِيِّينَ خُدَّامِي، وَأَجْعَلُهَا فِي كَثْرَةِ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ الَّتِي لَا تُحْصَى، وَكَرَمْلِ الْبَحْرِ الَّذِي لَا يُعَدُّ».

23 Moreover, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:

٢٣ ثُمَّ أَوْحَى الرَّبُّ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا بِهَذِهِ النُّبُوءَةِ.

24 “Have you not noticed what these people are saying: ‘The LORD has rejected the two families He had chosen’? So they despise My people and no longer regard them as a nation.

٢٤ «أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ مَا قَالَهُ ذَلِكَ الشَّعْبُ: قَدْ نَبَذَ الرَّبُّ الْعَشِيرَتَيْنِ اللَّتَيْنِ اخْتَارَهُمَا؟ كَذَلكَ احْتَقَرُوا شَعْبِي وَكَأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَعُودُوا أُمَّةً.

25 This is what the LORD says: If I have not established My covenant with the day and the night and the fixed order of heaven and earth,

٢٥ وَهَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ: إِنْ كُنْتُ لَمْ أَعْقِدْ مِيثَاقاً مَعَ النَّهَارِ وَاللَّيْلِ، وَلَمْ أَسُنَّ أَحْكَاماً لِلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ،

26 then I would also reject the descendants of Jacob and of My servant David, so as not to take from his descendants rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore them from captivity and will have compassion on them.”

٢٦ فَإِنِّي أَرْفُضُ ذُرِّيَّةَ يَعْقُوبَ وَدَاوُدَ عَبْدِي، فَلا أَصْطَفِي مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ مَنْ يَحْكُمُ عَلَى نَسْلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ. وَلَكِنِّي سَأَرُدُّ سَبْيَهُمْ وَأَرْحَمُهُمْ».
