Joshua 1
1 Now after the death of His servant Moses, the LORD spoke to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, saying,
| وَكَانَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ مُوسَى عَبْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ كَلَّمَ يَشُوعَ بْنَ نُونٍ خَادِمَ مُوسَى قَائِلًا: | ١ |
2 “Moses My servant is dead. Now therefore arise, you and all these people, and cross over the Jordan into the land that I am giving to the children of Israel.
| «مُوسَى عَبْدِي قَدْ مَاتَ. فَٱلْآنَ قُمْ ٱعْبُرْ هَذَا ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ أَنْتَ وَكُلُّ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا مُعْطِيهَا لَهُمْ أَيْ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢ |
3 I have given you every place where the sole of your foot will tread, just as I promised to Moses.
| كُلَّ مَوْضِعٍ تَدُوسُهُ بُطُونُ أَقْدَامِكُمْ لَكُمْ أَعْطَيْتُهُ، كَمَا كَلَّمْتُ مُوسَى. | ٣ |
4 Your territory shall extend from the wilderness and Lebanon to the great River Euphrates—all the land of the Hittites—and west as far as the Great Sea.
| مِنَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ وَلُبْنَانَ هَذَا إِلَى ٱلنَّهْرِ ٱلْكَبِيرِ نَهْرِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ، جَمِيعِ أَرْضِ ٱلْحِثِّيِّينَ، وَإِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلْكَبِيرِ نَحْوَ مَغْرِبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ يَكُونُ تُخْمُكُمْ. | ٤ |
5 No one shall stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so will I be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.
| لَا يَقِفُ إِنْسَانٌ فِي وَجْهِكَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِكَ. كَمَا كُنْتُ مَعَ مُوسَى أَكُونُ مَعَكَ. لَا أُهْمِلُكَ وَلَا أَتْرُكُكَ. | ٥ |
6 Be strong and courageous, for you shall give these people the inheritance of the land that I swore to their fathers I would give them.
| تَشَدَّدْ وَتَشَجَّعْ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تَقْسِمُ لِهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفْتُ لِآبَائِهِمْ أَنْ أُعْطِيَهُمْ. | ٦ |
7 Above all, be strong and very courageous. Be careful to observe all the law that My servant Moses commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may prosper wherever you go.
| إِنَّمَا كُنْ مُتَشَدِّدًا، وَتَشَجَّعْ جِدًّا لِكَيْ تَتَحَفَّظَ لِلْعَمَلِ حَسَبَ كُلِّ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَمَرَكَ بِهَا مُوسَى عَبْدِي. لَا تَمِلْ عَنْهَا يَمِينًا وَلَا شِمَالًا لِكَيْ تُفْلِحَ حَيْثُمَا تَذْهَبُ. | ٧ |
8 This Book of the Law must not depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. For then you will prosper and succeed in all you do.
| لَا يَبْرَحْ سِفْرُ هَذِهِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ مِنْ فَمِكَ، بَلْ تَلْهَجُ فِيهِ نَهَارًا وَلَيْلًا، لِكَيْ تَتَحَفَّظَ لِلْعَمَلِ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِيهِ. لِأَنَّكَ حِينَئِذٍ تُصْلِحُ طَرِيقَكَ وَحِينَئِذٍ تُفْلِحُ. | ٨ |
9 Have I not commanded you to be strong and courageous? Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
| أَمَا أَمَرْتُكَ؟ تَشَدَّدْ وَتَشَجَّعْ! لَا تَرْهَبْ وَلَا تَرْتَعِبْ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ مَعَكَ حَيْثُمَا تَذْهَبُ». | ٩ |
10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people:
| فَأَمَرَ يَشُوعُ عُرَفَاءَ ٱلشَّعْبِ قَائِلًا: | ١٠ |
11 “Go through the camp and tell the people, ‘Prepare your provisions, for within three days you will cross the Jordan to go in and take possession of the land that the LORD your God is giving you to possess.’”
| «جُوزُوا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ وَأْمُرُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ قَائِلِينَ: هَيِّئُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ زَادًا، لِأَنَّكُمْ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ تَعْبُرُونَ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ هَذَا لِكَيْ تَدْخُلُوا فَتَمْتَلِكُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ لِتَمْتَلِكُوهَا». | ١١ |
12 But to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said,
| ثُمَّ كَلَّمَ يَشُوعُ ٱلرَّأُوبَيْنِيِّينَ وَٱلْجَادِيِّينَ وَنِصْفَ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى قَائِلًا: | ١٢ |
13 “Remember what Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you when he said, ‘The LORD your God will give you rest, and He will give you this land.’
| «ٱذْكُرُوا ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي أَمَرَكُمْ بِهِ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ قَدْ أَرَاحَكُمْ وَأَعْطَاكُمْ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضَ. | ١٣ |
14 Your wives, your young children, and your livestock may remain in the land that Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan. But all your mighty men of valor must be armed for battle to cross over ahead of your brothers and help them,
| نِسَاؤُكُمْ وَأَطْفَالُكُمْ وَمَوَاشِيكُمْ تَلْبَثُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكُمْ مُوسَى فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، وَأَنْتُمْ تَعْبُرُونَ مُتَجَهِّزِينَ أَمَامَ إِخْوَتِكُمْ، كُلُّ ٱلْأَبْطَالِ ذَوِي ٱلْبَأْسِ، وَتُعِينُونَهُمْ | ١٤ |
15 until the LORD gives them rest as He has done for you, and your brothers also possess the land that the LORD your God is giving them. Then you may return to the land of your inheritance and take possession of that which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the east side of the Jordan.”
| حَتَّى يُرِيحَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِخْوَتَكُمْ مِثْلَكُمْ، وَيَمْتَلِكُوا هُمْ أَيْضًا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيهِمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. ثُمَّ تَرْجِعُونَ إِلَى أَرْضِ مِيرَاثِكُمْ وَتَمْتَلِكُونَهَا، ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكُمْ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ نَحْوَ شُرُوقِ ٱلشَّمْسِ». | ١٥ |
16 So they answered Joshua, “Everything you have commanded us we will do, and everywhere you send us we will go.
| فَأَجَابُوا يَشُوعَ قَائِلِينَ: «كُلَّ مَا أَمَرْتَنَا بِهِ نَعْمَلُهُ، وَحَيْثُمَا تُرْسِلْنَا نَذْهَبْ. | ١٦ |
17 Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so we will obey you. And may the LORD your God be with you, as He was with Moses.
| حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا سَمِعْنَا لِمُوسَى نَسْمَعُ لَكَ. إِنَّمَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ يَكُونُ مَعَكَ كَمَا كَانَ مَعَ مُوسَى. | ١٧ |
18 Anyone who rebels against your order and does not obey your words, all that you command him, will be put to death. Above all, be strong and courageous!”
| كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ يَعْصَى قَوْلَكَ وَلَا يَسْمَعُ كَلَامَكَ فِي كُلِّ مَا تَأْمُرُهُ بِهِ يُقْتَلُ. إِنَّمَا كُنْ مُتَشَدِّدًا وَتَشَجَّعْ». | ١٨ |
