Jeremiah 49
1 About the children of Ammon. These are the words of the Lord: Has Israel no sons? has he no one to take the heritage? why then has Milcom taken Gad for himself, putting his people in its towns?
| عَنْ بَنِي عَمُّونَ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَلَيْسَ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ بَنُونَ، أَوْ لَا وَارِثٌ لَهُ؟ لِمَاذَا يَرِثُ مَلِكُهُمْ جَادَ، وَشَعْبُهُ يَسْكُنُ فِي مُدُنِهِ؟ | ١ |
2 Because of this, see, the days are coming when I will have a cry of war sounded against Rabbah, the town of the children of Ammon; it will become a waste of broken walls, and her daughter-towns will be burned with fire: then Israel will take the heritage of those who took his heritage, says the Lord.
| لِذَلِكَ هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأُسْمِعُ فِي رَبَّةِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ جَلَبَةَ حَرْبٍ، وَتَصِيرُ تَّلًا خَرِبًا، وَتُحْرَقُ بَنَاتُهَا بِٱلنَّارِ، فَيَرِثُ إِسْرَائِيلُ ٱلَّذِينَ وَرِثُوهُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٢ |
3 Make sounds of grief, O Heshbon, for Ai is wasted; give loud cries, O daughters of Rabbah, and put haircloth round you: give yourselves to weeping, running here and there and wounding yourselves; for Milcom will be taken prisoner together with his rulers and his priests.
| وَلْوِلِي يَاحَشْبُونُ لِأَنَّ عَايَ قَدْ خَرِبَتْ. اُصْرُخْنَ يَا بَنَاتِ رَبَّةَ. تَنَطَّقْنَ بِمُسُوحٍ. ٱنْدُبْنَ وَطَوِّفْنَ بَيْنَ ٱلْجُدْرَانِ، لِأَنَّ مَلِكَهُمْ يَذْهَبُ إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ هُوَ وَكَهَنَتُهُ وَرُؤَسَاؤُهُ مَعًا. | ٣ |
4 Why are you lifted up in pride on account of your valleys, your flowing valley, O daughter ever turning away? who puts her faith in her wealth, saying, Who will come against me?
| مَا بَالُكِ تَفْتَخِرِينَ بِٱلْأَوْطِيَةِ؟ قَدْ فَاضَ وَطَاؤُكِ دَمًا أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْبِنْتُ ٱلْمُرْتَدَّةُ وَٱلْمُتَوَكِّلَةُ عَلَى خَزَائِنِهَا، قَائِلَةً: مَنْ يَأْتِي إِلَيَّ؟ | ٤ |
5 See, I will send fear on you, says the Lord, the Lord of armies, from those who are round you on every side; you will be forced out, every man straight before him, and there will be no one to get together the wanderers.
| هَأَنَذَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكِ خَوْفًا، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوَالَيْكِ، وَتُطْرَدُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مَا أَمَامَهُ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَجْمَعُ ٱلتَّائِهِينَ. | ٥ |
6 But after these things, I will let the fate of the children of Ammon be changed, says the Lord.
| ثُمَّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَرُدُّ سَبْيَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ٦ |
7 About Edom. This is what the Lord of armies has said. Is there no more wisdom in Teman? have wise suggestions come to an end among men of good sense? has their wisdom completely gone?
| عَنْ أَدُومَ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: أَلَا حِكْمَةَ بَعْدُ فِي تِيْمَانَ؟ هَلْ بَادَتِ ٱلْمَشُورَةُ مِنَ ٱلْفُهَمَاءِ؟ هَلْ فَرَغَتْ حِكْمَتُهُمْ؟ | ٧ |
8 Go in flight, go back, take cover in deep places, you who are living in Dedan; for I will send the fate of Edom on him, even the time of his punishment.
| اُهْرُبُوا. ٱلْتَفِتُوا. تَعَمَّقُوا فِي ٱلسَّكَنِ يَا سُكَّانَ دَدَانَ، لِأَنِّي قَدْ جَلَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ بَلِيَّةَ عِيسُو حِينَ عَاقَبْتُهُ. | ٨ |
9 If men came to get your grapes, would they not let some be uncut on the vines? if thieves came by night, would they not make waste till they had enough?
| لَوْ أَتَاكَ ٱلْقَاطِفُونَ، أَفَمَا كَانُوا يَتْرُكُونَ عُلَالَةً؟ أَوِ ٱللُّصُوصُ لَيْلًا، أَفَمَا كَانُوا يُهْلِكُونَ مَا يَكْفِيهِمْ؟ | ٩ |
10 I have had Esau searched out, uncovering his secret places, so that he may not keep himself covered: his seed is wasted and has come to an end, and there is no help from his neighbours.
| وَلَكِنَّنِي جَرَّدْتُ عِيسُوَ، وَكَشَفْتُ مُسْتَتَرَاتِهِ فَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَخْتَبِئَ. هَلَكَ نَسْلُهُ وَإِخْوَتُهُ وَجِيرَانُهُ، فَلَا يُوجَدُ. | ١٠ |
11 Put in my care your children who have no father, and I will keep them safe; and let your widows put their faith in me.
| اُتْرُكْ أَيْتَامَكَ أَنَا أُحْيِيهِمْ، وَأَرَامِلُكَ عَلَيَّ لِيَتَوَكَّلْنَ. | ١١ |
12 For the Lord has said, Those for whom the cup was not made ready will certainly be forced to take of it; and are you to go without punishment? you will not be without punishment, but will certainly be forced to take from the cup.
| لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَا إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا حَقَّ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَشْرَبُوا ٱلْكَأْسَ قَدْ شَرِبُوا، فَهَلْ أَنْتَ تَتَبَرَّأُ تَبَرُّؤًا؟ لَا تَتَبَرَّأُ! بَلْ إِنَّمَا تَشْرَبُ شُرْبًا. | ١٢ |
13 For I have taken an oath by myself, says the Lord, that Bozrah will become a cause of wonder, a name of shame, a waste and a curse; and all its towns will be waste places for ever.
| لِأَنِّي بِذَاتِي حَلَفْتُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِنَّ بُصْرَةَ تَكُونُ دَهَشًا وَعَارًا وَخَرَابًا وَلَعْنَةً، وَكُلُّ مُدُنِهَا تَكُونُ خِرَبًا أَبَدِيَّةً. | ١٣ |
14 Word has come to me from the Lord, and a representative has been sent to the nations, to say, Come together and go up against her, and take your places for the fight.
| قَدْ سَمِعْتُ خَبَرًا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَأُرْسِلَ رَسُولٌ إِلَى ٱلْأُمَمِ قَائِلًا: تَجَمَّعُوا وَتَعَالَوْا عَلَيْهَا، وَقُومُوا لِلْحَرْبِ. | ١٤ |
15 For see, I have made you small among the nations, looked down on by men.
| لِأَنِّي هَا قَدْ جَعَلْتُكَ صَغِيرًا بَيْنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَمُحْتَقَرًا بَيْنَ ٱلنَّاسِ. | ١٥ |
16 ... the pride of your heart has been a false hope, O you who are living in the cracks of the rock, keeping your place on the top of the hill: even if you made your living-place as high as the eagle, I would make you come down, says the Lord.
| قَدْ غَرَّكَ تَخْوِيفُكَ، كِبْرِيَاءُ قَلْبِكَ، يَاسَاكِنُ فِي مَحَاجِئِ ٱلصَّخْرِ، ٱلْمَاسِكَ مُرْتَفَعِ ٱلْأَكَمَةِ. وَإِنْ رَفَعْتَ كَنَسْرٍ عُشَّكَ، فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ أُحْدِرُكَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٦ |
17 And Edom will become a cause of wonder: everyone who goes by will be overcome with wonder, and make sounds of fear at all her punishments.
| وَتَصِيرُ أَدُومُ عَجَبًا. كُلُّ مَارٍّ بِهَا يَتَعَجَّبُ وَيَصْفِرُ بِسَبَبِ كُلِّ ضَرَبَاتِهَا! | ١٧ |
18 As at the downfall of Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbouring towns, says the Lord, no man will be living in it, no son of man will have a resting-place there.
| كَٱنْقِلَابِ سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ وَمُجَاوَرَاتِهِمَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لَا يَسْكُنُ هُنَاكَ إِنْسَانٌ وَلَا يَتَغَرَّبُ فِيهَا ٱبْنُ آدَمَ. | ١٨ |
19 See, he will come up like a lion from the thick growth of Jordan against the resting-place of Teman: but I will suddenly make him go in flight from her; and I will put over her the man of my selection: for who is like me? and who will put forward his cause against me? and what keeper of sheep will be able to keep his place before me?
| هُوَذَا يَصْعَدُ كَأَسَدٍ مِنْ كِبْرِيَاءِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ إِلَى مَرْعًى دَائِمٍ. لِأَنِّي أَغْمِزُ وَأَجْعَلُهُ يَرْكُضُ عَنْهُ. فَمَنْ هُوَ مُنْتَخَبٌ، فَأُقِيمَهُ عَلَيْهِ؟ لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ مِثْلِي؟ وَمَنْ يُحَاكِمُنِي؟ وَمَنْ هُوَ ٱلرَّاعِي ٱلَّذِي يَقِفُ أَمَامِي؟ | ١٩ |
20 For this cause give ear to the decision of the Lord which he has made against Edom, and to his purposes designed against the people of Teman: Truly, they will be pulled away by the smallest of the flock; truly, he will make waste their fields with them.
| لِذَلِكَ ٱسْمَعُوا مَشُورَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّتِي قَضَى بِهَا عَلَى أَدُومَ، وَأَفْكَارَهُ ٱلَّتِي ٱفْتَكَرَ بِهَا عَلَى سُكَّانِ تِيمَانَ: إِنَّ صِغَارَ ٱلْغَنَمِ تَسْحَبُهُمْ. إِنَّهُ يَخْرِبُ مَسْكَنَهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ. | ٢٠ |
21 The earth is shaking with the noise of their fall; their cry is sounding in the Red Sea.
| مِنْ صَوْتِ سُقُوطِهِمْ رَجَفَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ. صَرْخَةٌ سُمِعَ صَوْتُهَا فِي بَحْرِ سُوفَ. | ٢١ |
22 See, he will come up like an eagle in flight, stretching out his wings against Bozrah: and the hearts of Edom's men of war on that day will be like the heart of a woman in birth-pains.
| هُوَذَا كَنَسْرٍ يَرْتَفِعُ وَيَطِيرُ وَيَبْسُطُ جَنَاحَيْهِ عَلَى بُصْرَةَ، وَيَكُونُ قَلْبُ جَبَابِرَةِ أَدُومَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ كَقَلْبِ ٱمْرَأَةٍ مَاخِضٍ». | ٢٢ |
23 About Damascus. Hamath is put to shame, and Arpad; for the word of evil has come to their ears, their heart in its fear is turned to water, it will not be quiet.
| عَنْ دِمَشْقَ: «خَزِيَتْ حَمَاةُ وَأَرْفَادُ. قَدْ ذَابُوا لِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ سَمِعُوا خَبَرًا رَدِيئًا. فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱضْطِرَابٌ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ ٱلْهُدُوءَ. | ٢٣ |
24 Damascus has become feeble, she is turned to flight, fear has taken her in its grip: pain and sorrows have come on her, as on a woman in birth-pains.
| ٱرْتَخَتْ دِمَشْقُ وَٱلْتَفَتَتْ لِلْهَرَبِ. أَمْسَكَتْهَا ٱلرِّعْدَةُ، وَأَخَذَهَا ٱلضِّيقُ وَٱلْأَوْجَاعُ كَمَاخِضٍ. | ٢٤ |
25 How has the town of praise been wasted, the place of joy!
| كَيْفَ لَمْ تُتْرَكِ ٱلْمَدِينَةُ ٱلشَّهِيرَةُ، قَرْيَةُ فَرَحِي؟ | ٢٥ |
26 So her young men will be falling in her streets, and all the men of war will be cut off in that day, says the Lord of armies.
| لِذَلِكَ تَسْقُطُ شُبَّانُهَا فِي شَوَارِعِهَا، وَتَهْلِكُ كُلُّ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. | ٢٦ |
27 And I will have a fire lighted on the wall of Damascus, burning up the great houses of Ben-hadad.
| وَأُشْعِلُ نَارًا فِي سُورِ دِمَشْقَ فَتَأْكُلُ قُصُورَ بَنْهَدَدَ». | ٢٧ |
28 About Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, overcame. This is what the Lord has said: Up! go against Kedar, and make an attack on the children of the east.
| عَنْ قِيدَارَ وَعَنْ مَمَالِكِ حَاصُورَ ٱلَّتِي ضَرَبَهَا نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: قُومُوا ٱصْعَدُوا إِلَى قِيدَارَ. ٱخْرِبُوا بَنِي ٱلْمَشْرِقِ. | ٢٨ |
29 Their tents and their flocks they will take; they will take away for themselves their curtains and all their vessels and their camels: they will give a cry to them, Fear on every side.
| يَأْخُذُونَ خِيَامَهُمْ وَغَنَمَهُمْ، وَيَأْخُذُونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ شُقَقَهُمْ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهِمْ وَجِمَالَهُمْ، وَيُنَادُونَ إِلَيْهِمِ: ٱلْخَوْفَ مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبٍ. | ٢٩ |
30 Go in flight, go wandering far off, take cover in deep places, O people of Hazor, says the Lord; for Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, has made a design against you, he has a purpose against you in mind.
| «اُهْرُبُوا. ٱنْهَزِمُوا جِدًّا. تَعَمَّقُوا فِي ٱلسَّكَنِ يَاسُكَّانَ حَاصُورَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِأَنَّ نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرَ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ قَدْ أَشَارَ عَلَيْكُمْ مَشُورَةً، وَفَكَّرَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِكْرًا. | ٣٠ |
31 Up! go against a nation which is living in comfort and without fear of danger, says the Lord, without doors or locks, living by themselves.
| قُومُوا ٱصْعَدُوا إِلَى أُمَّةٍ مُطْمَئِنَّةٍ سَاكِنَةٍ آمِنَةٍ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لَا مَصَارِيعَ وَلَا عَوَارِضَ لَهَا. تَسْكُنُ وَحْدَهَا. | ٣١ |
32 And their camels will be taken from them by force, and their great herds will come into the hands of their attackers: those who have the ends of their hair cut I will send in flight to all the winds; and I will send their fate on them from every side, says the Lord.
| وَتَكُونُ جِمَالُهُمْ نَهْبًا، وَكَثْرَةُ مَاشِيَتِهِمْ غَنِيمَةً، وَأُذْرِي لِكُلِّ رِيحٍ مَقْصُوصِي ٱلشَّعْرِ مُسْتَدِيرًا، وَآتِي بِهَلَاكِهِمْ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَاتِهِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٣٢ |
33 And Hazor will be a hole for jackals, a waste for ever: no one will be living in it, and no son of man will have a resting-place there.
| وَتَكُونُ حَاصُورُ مَسْكَنَ بَنَاتِ آوَى، وَخَرِبَةً إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. لَا يَسْكُنُ هُنَاكَ إِنْسَانٌ، وَلَا يَتَغَرَّبُ فِيهَا ٱبْنُ آدَمَ». | ٣٣ |
34 The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah the prophet about Elam, when Zedekiah first became king of Judah, saying,
| كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّتِي صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ عَلَى عِيلَامَ، فِي ٱبْتِدَاءِ مُلْكِ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا قَائِلَةً: | ٣٤ |
35 This is what the Lord of armies has said: See, I will have the bow of Elam, their chief strength, broken.
| «هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: هَأَنَذَا أُحَطِّمُ قَوْسَ عِيلَامَ أَوَّلَ قُوَّتِهِمْ. | ٣٥ |
36 And I will send on Elam four winds from the four quarters of heaven, driving them out to all those winds; there will be no nation into which the wanderers from Elam do not come.
| وَأَجْلِبُ عَلَى عِيلَامَ أَرْبَعَ رِيَاحٍ مِنْ أَرْبَعَةِ أَطْرَافِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَأُذْرِيهِمْ لِكُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلرِّيَاحِ وَلَا تَكُونُ أُمَّةٌ إِلَّا وَيَأْتِي إِلَيْهَا مَنْفِيُّو عِيلَامَ. | ٣٦ |
37 And I will let Elam be broken before their haters, and before those who are making designs against their lives: I will send evil on them, even my burning wrath, says the Lord; and I will send the sword after them till I have put an end to them:
| وَأَجْعَلُ ٱلْعِيلَامِيِّينَ يَرْتَعِبُونَ أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِهِمْ وَأَمَامَ طَالِبِي نُفُوسِهِمْ، وَأَجْلِبُ عَلَيْهِمْ شَرًّا، حُمُوَّ غَضَبِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. وَأُرْسِلُ وَرَاءَهُمُ ٱلسَّيْفَ حَتَّى أُفْنِيَهُمْ. | ٣٧ |
38 I will put the seat of my power in Elam, and in Elam I will put an end to kings and rulers, says the Lord.
| وَأَضَعُ كُرْسِيِّي فِي عِيلَامَ، وَأُبِيدُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ ٱلْمَلِكَ وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٣٨ |
39 But it will come about that, in the last days, I will let the fate of Elam be changed, says the Lord.
| «وَيَكُونُ فِي آخِرِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أَنِّي أَرُدُّ سَبْيَ عِيلَامَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ٣٩ |
