Jeremias 42
1 THE WORD THAT CAME TO JEREMIAS from the Lord in the days of Joakim, king of Juda, saying,
| فَتَقَدَّمَ كُلُّ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْجُيُوشِ وَيُوحَانَانُ بْنُ قَارِيحَ، وَيَزَنْيَا بْنُ هُوشَعْيَا، وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنَ ٱلصَّغِيرِ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِيرِ، | ١ |
2 Go to the house of the Archabin, and thou shalt bring them to the house of the Lord, into one of the courts, and give them wine to drink.
| وَقَالُوا لِإِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ: «لَيْتَ تَضَرُّعَنَا يَقَعُ أَمَامَكَ، فَتُصَلِّيَ لِأَجْلِنَا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ لِأَجْلِ كُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلْبَقِيَّةِ. لِأَنَّنَا قَدْ بَقِينَا قَلِيلِينَ مِنْ كَثِيرِينَ كَمَا تَرَانَا عَيْنَاكَ. | ٢ |
3 So I brought forth Jechonias the son of Jeremin the son of Chabasin, and his brethren, and his sons, and all the family of the Archabin;
| فَيُخْبِرُنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ عَنِ ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي نَسِيرُ فِيهِ، وَٱلْأَمْرِ ٱلَّذِي نَفْعَلُهُ». | ٣ |
4 and I brought them into the house of the Lord, into the chamber of the sons of Joanan, the son of Ananias, the son of Godolias, a man of God, who dwells near the house of the princes that are over the house of Maasaeas the son of Selom, who kept the court.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ: «قَدْ سَمِعْتُ. هَأَنَذَا أُصَلِّي إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ كَقَوْلِكُمْ، وَيَكُونُ أَنَّ كُلَّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي يُجِيبُكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِهِ. لَا أَمْنَعُ عَنْكُمْ شَيْئًا». | ٤ |
5 And I set before them a jar of wine, and cups, and I said, Drink ye wine.
| فَقَالُوا هُمْ لِإِرْمِيَا: «لِيَكُنِ ٱلرَّبُّ بَيْنَنَا شَاهِدًا صَادِقًا وَأَمِينًا إِنَّنَا نَفْعَلُ حَسَبَ كُلِّ أَمْرٍ يُرْسِلُكَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِلَيْنَا، | ٥ |
6 But they said, We will on no account drink wine, for our father Jonadab the son of Rechab commanded us, saying, Ye shall on no account drink wine, [neither] ye, nor your sons for ever:
| إِنْ خَيْرًا وَإِنْ شَرًّا. فَإِنَّنَا نَسْمَعُ لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ ٱلَّذِي نَحْنُ مُرْسِلُوكَ إِلَيْهِ لِيُحْسَنَ إِلَيْنَا إِذَا سَمِعْنَا لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا». | ٦ |
7 nor shall ye at all build houses, nor sow any seed, nor shall ye have a vineyard: for ye shall dwell in tents all your days; that ye may live many days upon the land, in which ye sojourn.
| وَكَانَ بَعْدَ عَشَرَةِ أَيَّامٍ أَنَّ كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا. | ٧ |
8 And we hearkened to the voice of Jonadab our father, so as to drink no wine all our days, we, and our wives, and our sons, and our daughters;
| فَدَعَا يُوحَانَانَ بْنَ قَارِيحَ وَكُلَّ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْجُيُوشِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ، وَكُلَّ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنَ ٱلصَّغِيرِ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِيرِ، | ٨ |
9 and so as to build no houses to dwell in: and we have had no vineyard, nor field, nor seed:
| وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلْتُمُونِي إِلَيْهِ لِكَيْ أُلْقِيَ تَضَرُّعَكُمْ أَمَامَهُ: | ٩ |
10 but we have dwelt in tents, and have hearkened, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
| إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَسْكُنُونَ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَإِنِّي أَبْنِيكُمْ وَلَا أَنْقُضُكُمْ، وَأَغْرِسُكُمْ وَلَا أَقْتَلِعُكُمْ. لِأَنِّي نَدِمْتُ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتُهُ بِكُمْ. | ١٠ |
11 And it came to pass, when Nabuchodonosor came up against the land, that we said we would come in; and we entered into Jerusalem, for fear of the host of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the host of the Assyrians: and we dwelt there.
| لَا تَخَافُوا مَلِكَ بَابِلَ ٱلَّذِي أَنْتُمْ خَائِفُوهُ. لَا تَخَافُوهُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا مَعَكُمْ لِأُخَلِّصَكُمْ وَأُنْقِذَكُمْ مِنْ يَدِهِ. | ١١ |
12 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
| وَأُعْطِيَكُمْ نِعْمَةً، فَيَرْحَمُكُمْ وَيَرُدُّكُمْ إِلَى أَرْضِكُمْ. | ١٢ |
13 Thus saith the Lord, Go, and say to the men of Juda, and to them that dwell in Jerusalem, Will ye not receive correction to hearken to my words?
| «وَإِنْ قُلْتُمْ: لَا نَسْكُنُ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، | ١٣ |
14 The sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have kept the word which he commanded his children, that they should drink no wine; and they have not drunk [it]: but I spoke to you early, and ye hearkened not.
| قَائِلِينَ: لَا بَلْ إِلَى أَرْضِ مِصْرَ نَذْهَبُ، حَيْثُ لَا نَرَى حَرْبًا، وَلَا نَسْمَعُ صَوْتَ بُوقٍ، وَلَا نَجُوعُ لِلْخُبْزِ، وَهُنَاكَ نَسْكُنُ. | ١٤ |
15 And I sent to you my servants the prophets, saying, Turn ye every one from his evil way, and amend your practices, and go not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell upon the land which I gave to you and to your fathers: but ye inclined not your ears, and hearkened not.
| فَٱلْآنَ لِذَلِكَ ٱسْمَعُوا كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَابَقِيَّةَ يَهُوذَا، هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَجْعَلُونَ وُجُوهَكُمْ لِلدُّخُولِ إِلَى مِصْرَ، وَتَذْهَبُونَ لِتَتَغَرَّبُوا هُنَاكَ، | ١٥ |
16 But the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have kept the command of their father; but this people has not hearkened to me.
| يَحْدُثُ أَنَّ ٱلسَّيْفَ ٱلَّذِي أَنْتُمْ خَائِفُونَ مِنْهُ يُدْرِكُكُمْ هُنَاكَ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَٱلْجُوعَ ٱلَّذِي أَنْتُمْ خَائِفُونَ مِنْهُ يَلْحَقُكُمْ هُنَاكَ فِي مِصْرَ، فَتَمُوتُونَ هُنَاكَ. | ١٦ |
17 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I [will] bring upon Juda and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evils which I pronounced against them.
| وَيَكُونُ أَنَّ كُلَّ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا وُجُوهَهُمْ لِلدُّخُولِ إِلَى مِصْرَ لِيَتَغَرَّبُوا هُنَاكَ، يَمُوتُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ وَٱلْجُوعِ وَٱلْوَبَإِ، وَلَا يَكُونُ مِنْهُمْ بَاقٍ وَلَا نَاجٍ مِنَ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي أَجْلِبُهُ أَنَا عَلَيْهِمْ. | ١٧ |
18 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Since the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have hearkened to the command of their father, to do as their father commanded them:
| لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: كَمَا ٱنْسَكَبَ غَضَبِي وَغَيْظِي عَلَى سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ، هَكَذَا يَنْسَكِبُ غَيْظِي عَلَيْكُمْ عِنْدَ دُخُولِكُمْ إِلَى مِصْرَ، فَتَصِيرُونَ حَلَفًا وَدَهَشًا وَلَعْنَةً وَعَارًا، وَلَا تَرَوْنَ بَعْدُ هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعَ». | ١٨ |
19 there shall never be wanting a man of the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab to stand before my face while the earth remains.
| «قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا بَقِيَّةَ يَهُوذَا: لَا تَدْخُلُوا مِصْرَ. ٱعْلَمُوا عِلْمًا أَنِّي قَدْ أَنْذَرْتُكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ. | ١٩ |
| لِأَنَّكُمْ قَدْ خَدَعْتُمْ أَنْفُسَكُمْ إِذْ أَرْسَلْتُمُونِي إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ قَائِلِينَ: صَلِّ لِأَجْلِنَا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا، وَحَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا يَقُولُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا هَكَذَا أَخْبِرْنَا فَنَفْعَلَ. | ٢٠ |
| فَقَدْ أَخْبَرْتُكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ فَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَلَا لِشَيْءٍ مِمَّا أَرْسَلَنِي بِهِ إِلَيْكُمْ. | ٢١ |
| فَٱلْآنَ ٱعْلَمُوا عِلْمًا أَنَّكُمْ تَمُوتُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ وَٱلْجُوعِ وَٱلْوَبَإِ فِي ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي ٱبْتَغَيْتُمْ أَنْ تَدْخُلُوهُ لِتَتَغَرَّبُوا فِيهِ». | ٢٢ |
