2 Samuel 13
1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David having a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar, Amnon the son of David loved her.
| وَجَرَى بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِأَبْشَالُومَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ أُخْتٌ جَمِيلَةٌ ٱسْمُهَا ثَامَارُ، فَأَحَبَّهَا أَمْنُونُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ. | ١ |
2 And Amnon was so vexed, that he fell sick for his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed difficult for Amnon to do the least thing to her.
| وَأُحْصِرَ أَمْنُونُ لِلسُّقْمِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ثَامَارَ أُخْتِهِ لِأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ عَذْرَاءَ، وَعَسُرَ فِي عَيْنَيْ أَمْنُونَ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ لَهَا شَيْئًا. | ٢ |
3 And Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother; and Jonadab was a very shrewd man.
| وَكَانَ لِأَمْنُونَ صَاحِبٌ ٱسْمُهُ يُونَادَابُ بْنُ شِمْعَى أَخِي دَاوُدَ. وَكَانَ يُونَادَابُ رَجُلًا حَكِيمًا جِدًّا. | ٣ |
4 And he said to him, Why dost thou, the king's son, get thinner from morning to morning? Wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said to him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.
| فَقَالَ لَهُ: «لِمَاذَا يَا ٱبْنَ ٱلْمَلِكِ أَنْتَ ضَعِيفٌ هَكَذَا مِنْ صَبَاحٍ إِلَى صَبَاحٍ؟ أَمَا تُخْبِرُنِي؟» فَقَالَ لَهُ أَمْنُونُ: «إِنِّي أُحِبُّ ثَامَارَ أُخْتَ أَبْشَالُومَ أَخِي». | ٤ |
5 And Jonadab said to him, Lay thee down on thy bed and feign thyself sick; and when thy father comes to see thee, say to him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come, and give me food, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it from her hand.
| فَقَالَ يُونَادَابُ: «ٱضْطَجِعْ عَلَى سَرِيرِكَ وَتَمَارَضْ. وَإِذَا جَاءَ أَبُوكَ لِيَرَاكَ فَقُلْ لَهُ: دَعْ ثَامَارَ أُخْتِي فَتَأْتِيَ وَتُطْعِمَنِي خُبْزًا، وَتَعْمَلَ أَمَامِي ٱلطَّعَامَ لِأَرَى فَآكُلَ مِنْ يَدِهَا». | ٥ |
6 So Amnon lay down and feigned himself sick; and the king came to see him, and Amnon said to the king, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, and make a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand.
| فَٱضْطَجَعَ أَمْنُونُ وَتَمَارَضَ، فَجَاءَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِيَرَاهُ. فَقَالَ أَمْنُونُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «دَعْ ثَامَارَ أُخْتِي فَتَأْتِيَ وَتَصْنَعَ أَمَامِي كَعْكَتَيْنِ فَآكُلَ مِنْ يَدِهَا». | ٦ |
7 And David sent home to Tamar, saying, Go, I pray thee, to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him food.
| فَأَرْسَلَ دَاوُدُ إِلَى ثَامَارَ إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ قَائِلًا: «ٱذْهَبِي إِلَى بَيْتِ أَمْنُونَ أَخِيكِ وَٱعْمَلِي لَهُ طَعَامًا». | ٧ |
8 And Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he had lain down. And she took flour and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
| فَذَهَبَتْ ثَامَارُ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَمْنُونَ أَخِيهَا وَهُوَ مُضْطَجِعٌ. وَأَخَذَتِ ٱلْعَجِينَ وَعَجَنَتْ وَعَمِلَتْ كَعْكًا أَمَامَهُ وَخَبَزَتِ ٱلْكَعْكَ، | ٨ |
9 And she took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Put every man out from me. And they went out every man from him.
| وَأَخَذَتِ ٱلْمِقْلَاةَ وَسَكَبَتْ أَمَامَهُ، فَأَبَى أَنْ يَأْكُلَ. وَقَالَ أَمْنُونُ: «أَخْرِجُوا كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ عَنِّي». فَخَرَجَ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ عَنْهُ. | ٩ |
10 And Amnon said to Tamar, Bring the dish into the chamber, that I may eat of thy hand. And Tamar took the cakes that she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمْنُونُ لِثَامَارَ: «ٱيتِي بِٱلطَّعَامِ إِلَى ٱلْمِخْدَعِ فَآكُلَ مِنْ يَدِكِ». فَأَخَذَتْ ثَامَارُ ٱلْكَعْكَ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَتْهُ وَأَتَتْ بِهِ أَمْنُونَ أَخَاهَا إِلَى ٱلْمِخْدَعِ. | ١٠ |
11 And she presented them to him to eat; and he took hold of her, and said to her, Come, lie with me, my sister.
| وَقَدَّمَتْ لَهُ لِيَأْكُلَ، فَأَمْسَكَهَا وَقَالَ لَهَا: «تَعَالَيِ ٱضْطَجِعِي مَعِي يَاأُخْتِي». | ١١ |
12 And she said to him, No, my brother, do not humble me; for no such thing is done in Israel: do not this infamy.
| فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «لَا يَا أَخِي، لَا تُذِلَّنِي لِأَنَّهُ لَا يُفْعَلُ هَكَذَا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. لَا تَعْمَلْ هَذِهِ ٱلْقَبَاحَةَ. | ١٢ |
13 And I, whither shall I carry my reproach? and thou wouldest be as one of the infamous in Israel. And now, I pray thee, speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.
| أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَيْنَ أَذْهَبُ بِعَارِي؟ وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَتَكُونُ كَوَاحِدٍ مِنَ ٱلسُّفَهَاءِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ! وَٱلْآنَ كَلِّمِ ٱلْمَلِكَ لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَمْنَعُنِي مِنْكَ». | ١٣ |
14 But he would not hearken to her voice, and was stronger than she, and humbled her and lay with her.
| فَلَمْ يَشَأْ أَنْ يَسْمَعَ لِصَوْتِهَا، بَلْ تَمَكَّنَ مِنْهَا وَقَهَرَهَا وَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا. | ١٤ |
15 And Amnon hated her with an exceeding great hatred, for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, Arise, be gone.
| ثُمَّ أَبْغَضَهَا أَمْنُونُ بُغْضَةً شَدِيدَةً جِدًّا، حَتَّى إِنَّ ٱلْبِغْضَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَبْغَضَهَا إِيَّاهَا كَانَتْ أَشَدَّ مِنَ ٱلْمَحَبَّةِ ٱلَّتِي أَحَبَّهَا إِيَّاهَا. وَقَالَ لَهَا أَمْنُونُ: «قُومِي ٱنْطَلِقِي». | ١٥ |
16 And she said to him, There is no cause for this evil in sending me away, [which] is greater than the other that thou didst to me. But he would not hearken to her.
| فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «لَا سَبَبَ! هَذَا ٱلشَّرُّ بِطَرْدِكَ إِيَّايَ هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنَ ٱلْآخَرِ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلْتَهُ بِي». فَلَمْ يَشَأْ أَنْ يَسْمَعَ لَهَا، | ١٦ |
17 Then he called his young man that attended upon him, and said, Put now this [woman] out from me, and bolt the door after her.
| بَلْ دَعَا غُلَامَهُ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَخْدِمُهُ وَقَالَ: «ٱطْرُدْ هَذِهِ عَنِّي خَارِجًا وَأَقْفِلِ ٱلْبَابَ وَرَاءَهَا». | ١٧ |
18 Now she had a vest of many colours upon her; for so were the king's daughters that were virgins apparelled. And his attendant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.
| وَكَانَ عَلَيْهَا ثَوْبٌ مُلوَّنٌ، لِأَنَّ بَنَاتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلْعَذَارَى كُنَّ يَلْبَسْنَ جُبَّاتٍ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ. فَأَخْرَجَهَا خَادِمُهُ إِلَى ٱلْخَارِجِ وَأَقْفَلَ ٱلْبَابَ وَرَاءَهَا. | ١٨ |
19 And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her vest of many colours which was on her, and laid her hand on her head, and went away, crying out as she went.
| فَجَعَلَتْ ثَامَارُ رَمَادًا عَلَى رَأْسِهَا، وَمَزَّقَتِ ٱلثَّوْبَ ٱلْمُلَوَّنَ ٱلَّذِي عَلَيْهَا، وَوَضَعَتْ يَدَهَا عَلَى رَأْسِهَا وَكَانَتْ تَذْهَبُ صَارِخَةً. | ١٩ |
20 And Absalom her brother said to her, Has Amnon thy brother been with thee? and now, my sister, be still: he is thy brother; take not this thing to heart. And Tamar remained, and [that] desolate, in her brother Absalom's house.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا أَبْشَالُومُ أَخُوهَا: «هَلْ كَانَ أَمْنُونُ أَخُوكِ مَعَكِ؟ فَٱلْآنَ يَا أُخْتِي ٱسْكُتِي. أَخُوكِ هُوَ. لَا تَضَعِي قَلْبَكِ عَلَى هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ». فَأَقَامَتْ ثَامَارُ مُسْتَوْحِشَةً فِي بَيْتِ أَبْشَالُومَ أَخِيهَا. | ٢٠ |
21 And king David heard of all these things, and he was very angry.
| وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ بِجَمِيعِ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ ٱغْتَاظَ جِدًّا. | ٢١ |
22 And Absalom spoke to Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had humbled his sister Tamar.
| وَلَمْ يُكَلِّمْ أَبْشَالُومُ أَمْنُونَ بِشَرٍّ وَلَا بِخَيْرٍ، لِأَنَّ أَبْشَالُومَ أَبْغَضَ أَمْنُونَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ أَذَلَّ ثَامَارَ أُخْتَهُ. | ٢٢ |
23 And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal-Hazor, which is beside Ephraim; and Absalom invited all the king's sons.
| وَكَانَ بَعْدَ سَنَتَيْنِ مِنَ ٱلزَّمَانِ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِأَبْشَالُومَ جَزَّازُونَ فِي بَعْلَ حَاصُورَ ٱلَّتِي عِنْدَ أَفْرَايِمَ. فَدَعَا أَبْشَالُومُ جَمِيعَ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٢٣ |
24 And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold, now, thy servant has sheepshearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant.
| وَجَاءَ أَبْشَالُومُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالَ: «هُوَذَا لِعَبْدِكَ جَزَّازُونَ. فَلْيَذْهَبِ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَعَبِيدُهُ مَعَ عَبْدِكَ». | ٢٤ |
25 And the king said to Absalom, No, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome to thee. And he urged him, but he would not go; and he blessed him.
| فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِأَبْشَالُومَ: «لَا يَا ٱبْنِي. لَا نَذْهَبْ كُلُّنَا لِئَلَّا نُثَقِّلَ عَلَيْكَ». فَأَلَحَّ عَلَيْهِ، فَلَمْ يَشَأْ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ بَلْ بَارَكَهُ. | ٢٥ |
26 And Absalom said, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said to him, Why should he go with thee?
| فَقَالَ أَبْشَالُومُ: «إِذًا دَعْ أَخِي أَمْنُونَ يَذْهَبْ مَعَنَا». فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ: «لِمَاذَا يَذْهَبُ مَعَكَ؟» | ٢٦ |
27 But Absalom pressed him; and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.
| فَأَلَحَّ عَلَيْهِ أَبْشَالُومُ، فَأَرْسَلَ مَعَهُ أَمْنُونَ وَجَمِيعَ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٢٧ |
28 And Absalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and when I say to you, Smite Amnon; then slay him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.
| فَأَوْصَى أَبْشَالُومُ غِلْمَانَهُ قَائِلًا: «ٱنْظُرُوا. مَتَى طَابَ قَلْبُ أَمْنُونَ بِٱلْخَمْرِ وَقُلْتُ لَكُمُ ٱضْرِبُوا أَمْنُونَ فَٱقْتُلُوهُ. لَا تَخَافُوا. أَلَيْسَ أَنِّي أَنَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ؟ فَتَشَدَّدُوا وَكُونُوا ذَوِي بَأْسٍ». | ٢٨ |
29 And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and they rode each upon his mule and fled.
| فَفَعَلَ غِلْمَانُ أَبْشَالُومَ بِأَمْنُونَ كَمَا أَمَرَ أَبْشَالُومُ. فَقَامَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ وَرَكِبُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى بَغْلِهِ وَهَرَبُوا. | ٢٩ |
30 And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom has smitten all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.
| وَفِيمَا هُمْ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَصَلَ ٱلْخَبَرُ إِلَى دَاوُدَ وَقِيلَ لَهُ: «قَدْ قَتَلَ أَبْشَالُومُ جَمِيعَ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَلَمْ يَتَبَقَّ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ». | ٣٠ |
31 Then the king arose, and rent his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their garments rent.
| فَقَامَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَمَزَّقَ ثِيَابَهُ وَٱضْطَجَعَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَجَمِيعُ عَبِيدِهِ وَاقِفُونَ وَثِيَابُهُمْ مُمَزَّقَةٌ. | ٣١ |
32 And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have slain all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead; for by the appointment of Absalom this has been determined from the day that he humbled his sister Tamar.
| فَأَجَابَ يُونَادَابُ بْنُ شِمْعَى أَخِي دَاوُدَ وَقَالَ: «لَا يَظُنَّ سَيِّدِي أَنَّهُمْ قَتَلُوا جَمِيعَ ٱلْفِتْيَانِ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ. إِنَّمَا أَمْنُونُ وَحْدَهُ مَاتَ، لِأَنَّ ذَلِكَ قَدْ وُضِعَ عِنْدَ أَبْشَالُومَ مُنْذُ يَوْمَ أَذَلَّ ثَامَارَ أُخْتَهُ. | ٣٢ |
33 And now let not my lord the king take the thing to heart, to say, All the king's sons are dead; for Amnon only is dead.
| وَٱلْآنَ لَا يَضَعَنَّ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ فِي قَلْبِهِ شَيْئًا قَائِلًا: إِنَّ جَمِيعَ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ قَدْ مَاتُوا. إِنَّمَا أَمْنُونُ وَحْدَهُ مَاتَ». | ٣٣ |
34 And Absalom fled. And the young man that watched lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, there came much people from the way behind him, from the hill-side.
| وَهَرَبَ أَبْشَالُومُ. وَرَفَعَ ٱلْغُلَامُ ٱلرَّقِيبُ طَرْفَهُ وَنَظَرَ وَإِذَا بِشَعْبٍ كَثِيرٍ يَسِيرُونَ عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَرَاءَهُ بِجَانِبِ ٱلْجَبَلِ. | ٣٤ |
35 And Jonadab said to the king, Behold, the king's sons come: as thy servant said, so it is.
| فَقَالَ يُونَادَابُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «هُوَذَا بَنُو ٱلْمَلِكِ قَدْ جَاءُوا. كَمَا قَالَ عَبْدُكَ كَذَلِكَ صَارَ». | ٣٥ |
36 And as soon as he had ended speaking, behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice and wept; and the king also and all his servants wept very bitterly.
| وَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنَ ٱلْكَلَامِ إِذَا بِبَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ قَدْ جَاءُوا وَرَفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَهُمْ وَبَكَوْا، وَكَذَلِكَ بَكَى ٱلْمَلِكُ وَعَبِيدُهُ بُكَاءً عَظِيمًا جِدًّا. | ٣٦ |
37 And Absalom fled, and went to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And [David] mourned for his son every day.
| فَهَرَبَ أَبْشَالُومُ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى تِلْمَايَ بْنِ عَمِّيهُودَ مَلِكِ جَشُورَ. وَنَاحَ دَاوُدُ عَلَى ٱبْنِهِ ٱلْأَيَّامَ كُلَّهَا. | ٣٧ |
38 Now Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.
| وَهَرَبَ أَبْشَالُومُ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى جَشُورَ، وَكَانَ هُنَاكَ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ. | ٣٨ |
39 And king David longed to go forth to Absalom; for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يَتُوقُ إِلَى ٱلْخُرُوجِ إِلَى أَبْشَالُومَ، لِأَنَّهُ تَعَزَّى عَنْ أَمْنُونَ حَيْثُ إِنَّهُ مَاتَ. | ٣٩ |
