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.
| وَكَانَ لأَبْشَالُومَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ أُخْتٌ جَمِيلَةٌ تُدْعَى ثَامَارَ، فَأَحَبَّهَا أَخُوهَا غَيْرُ الشَّقِيقِ أَمْنُونُ. | 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.
| وَعَانَى أَمْنُونُ مِنْ سُقْمِ الْحُبِّ، لأَنَّ ثَامَارَ أُخْتَهُ كَانَتْ عَذْرَاءَ وَتَعَذَّرَ عَلَيْهِ تَحْقِيقُ مَأْرَبِهِ مِنْهَا. | 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 لأَمْنُونَ صَدِيقٌ رَاجِحُ الْعَقْلِ، هُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّهِ، يُونَادَابُ بْنُ شِمْعَى، | 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.
| فَسَأَلَهُ: «مَالِي أَرَاكَ سَقِيماً يَا ابْنَ الْمَلِكِ يَوْماً بَعْدَ يَوْمٍ؟ أَلا تُخْبِرُنِي؟» فَأَجَابَهُ 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: «تَمَارَضْ فِي سَرِيرِكَ. وَعِنْدَمَا يَجِيءُ أَبُوكَ لِيَزُورَكَ قُلْ لَهُ: دَعْ ثَامَارَ أُخْتِي تَأْتِي لِتُطْعِمَنِي. دَعْهَا تُعِدُّ الطَّعَامَ أَمَامِي فَأَرَى مَا تَفْعَلُ وَآكُلُ 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.
| فَاضْطَجَعَ أَمْنُونُ وَتَمَارَضَ، وَقَالَ لأَبِيهِ عِنْدَمَا جَاءَ لِيَزُورَهُ: «دَعْ ثَامَارَ تَأْتِي لِتَصْنَعَ 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 مَنْ يَدْعُو ثَامَارَ مِنْ بَيْتِهَا قَائِلاً: «اذْهَبِي إِلَى بَيْتِ أَخِيكِ أَمْنُونَ وَاصْنَعِي لَهُ طَعَاماً». | 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.
| فَمَضَتْ ثَامَارُ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَخِيهَا أَمْنُونَ الرَّاقِدِ فِي سَرِيرِهِ، فَعَجَنَتْ أَمَامَهُ الْعَجِينَ وَصَنَعَتْ كَعْكاً وَخَبَزَتْهُ. | 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.
| ثُمَّ أَخَذَتِ الْمِقْلاةَ وَسَكَبَتِ الطَّعَامَ أَمَامَهُ. لَكِنَّهُ أَبَى أَنْ يَأْكُلَ قَائِلاً: «أَخْرِجُوا كُلَّ مَنْ هُنَا». فَانْصَرَفَ جَمِيعُ مَنْ عِنْدَهُ. | 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: «أَحْضِري الطَّعَامَ إِلَى السَّرِيرِ وَأَطْعِمِينِي». فَأَحْضَرَتْ ثَامَارُ الْكَعْكَ الَّذِي صَنَعَتْهُ إِلَى أَمْنُونَ أَخِيهَا الرَّاقِدِ فِي سَرِيرِهِ. | 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.
| وَمَا إِنْ قَدَّمَتْهُ لَهُ حَتَّى أَمْسَكَهَا وَقَالَ لَهَا: «تَعَالَيِ اضْطَجِعِي مَعِي يَا أُخْتِي». | 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.
| فَأَجَابَتْهُ: «لا يَا أَخِي. لَا تُذِلَّنِي. لأَنَّهُ لَا يُقْتَرَفُ مِثْلُ هَذَا الْعَمَلِ الشَّنِيعِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. أَرْجُوكَ لَا تَرْتَكِبْ هَذِهِ الْقَبَاحَةَ، | 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.
| إِذْ كَيْفَ أُوَارِي عَارِي؟ أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَتَكُونُ بِتَصَرُّفِكَ هَذَا كَوَاحِدٍ مِنَ السُّفَهَاءِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. خَاطِبِ الْمَلِكَ بِشَأْنِي فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَمْنَعَنِي مِنَ الزَّوَاجِ مِنْكَ». | ١٣ |
14 But he would not hearken to her voice, and was stronger than she, and humbled her and lay with her.
| فَأَبَى أَنْ يَسْتَمِعَ لِتَوَسُّلاتِهَا، بَلْ تَغَلَّبَ عَلَيْهَا وَاغْتَصَبَهَا. | 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 تَحَوَّلَ حُبُّ أَمْنُونَ لِثَامَارَ إِلَى بُغْضٍ شَدِيدٍ فَاقَ مَحَبَّتَهُ لَهَا. وَقَالَ لَهَا: «قُومِي انْطَلِقِي». | 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.
| فَأَجَابَتْ: «لا! إِنَّ طَرْدَكَ إِيَّايَ جَرِيمَةٌ أَشْنَعُ مِنَ الْجَرِيمَةِ الَّتِي اقْتَرَفْتَهَا». لَكِنَّهُ أَبَى 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.
| وَاسْتَدْعَى خَادِمَهُ الْخَاصَّ وَقَالَ: «اطْرُدْ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةَ خَارِجاً، وَأَغْلِقِ الْبَابَ 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.
| فَطَرَدَهَا الْخَادِمُ وَأَغْلَقَ الْبَابَ خَلْفَهَا. وَكَانَتْ ثَامَارُ تَرْتَدِي ثَوْباً مُلَوَّناً كَعَادَةِ بَنَاتِ الْمُلُوكِ الْعَذَارَى فِي تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ، | 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.
| فَمَزَّقَتِ الثَّوْبَ الْمُلَوَّنَ وَعَفَّرَتْ رَأْسَهَا بِالرَّمَادِ وَوَضَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ يَدَهَا وَمَضَتْ بَاكِيَةً. | 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.
| وَعِنْدَمَا رَآهَا أَخُوهَا أَبْشَالُومُ سَأَلَهَا: «هَلِ اغْتَصَبَكِ أَمْنُونُ؟ اسْكُتِي الآنَ يَا أُخْتِي، فَإِنَّهُ أَخُوكِ وَلا تَحْمِلِي وِزْرَ هَذَا الأَمْرِ فِي قْلبِكِ». فَأَقَامَتْ ثَامَارُ فِي بَيْتِ أَخِيهَا أَبْشَالُومَ فِي عُزْلَةٍ وَحُزْنٍ. | ٢٠ |
21 And king David heard of all these things, and he was very angry.
| وَنَمَا الْخَبَرُ إِلَى الْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ فَاغْتَاظَ جِدّاً. | ٢١ |
22 And Absalom spoke to Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had humbled his sister Tamar.
| أَمَّا أَبْشَالُومُ فَلَمْ يُخَاطِبْ أَمْنُونَ بِخَيْرٍ أَوْ شَرٍّ، لَكِنَّهُ أَضْمَرَ لَهُ بُغْضاً شَدِيداً لأَنَّهُ انْتَهَكَ حُرْمَةَ أُخْتِهِ ثَامَارَ. | 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.
| وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِعَامَيْنِ، وَجَّهَ أَبْشَالُومُ دَعْوَةً لِجَمِيعِ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَلِكِ لِحُضُورِ جَزِّ غَنَمِهِ فِي بَعْلِ حَاصُورَ عِنْدَ أَفْرَايِمَ. | 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.
| وَعِنْدَمَا مَثَلَ أَبْشَالُومُ فِي حَضْرَةِ أَبِيهِ قَالَ لَهُ: «هَذَا مَوْسِمُ جَزِّ غَنَمِ عَبْدِكَ، فَلْيَذْهَبِ الْمَلِكُ مَعَ رِجَالِ حَاشِيَتِهِ بِرِفْقَةِ عَبْدِهِ». | 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.
| فَأَجَابَ الْمَلِكُ أَبْشَالُومَ: «لا يَا ابْنِي. لَا نَذْهَبُ كُلُّنَا لِئَلّا نَكُونَ عِبْئاً عَلَيْكَ». وَرَغْمَ إِلْحَاحِ أَبْشَالُومَ، اعْتَذَرَ أَبُوهُ وَبَارَكَهُ. | 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: «إذاً دَعْ أَخِي أَمْنُونَ يَذْهَبُ مَعَنَا» فَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ: «وَلِمَاذَا يَذْهَبُ أَمْنُونُ مَعَكَ؟» | ٢٦ |
27 But Absalom pressed him; and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.
| فَأَلَحَّ عَلَيْهِ أَبْشَالُومُ حَتَّى رَضِيَ أَنْ يَذْهَبَ أَمْنُونُ وَأَبْنَاءُ الْمَلِكِ مَعَ أَبْشَالُومَ. | 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.
| وَأَوْصَى أَبْشَالُومُ رِجَالَهُ: «مَتَى ذَهَبَتِ الْخَمْرُ بِعَقْلِ أَمْنُونَ وَقُلْتُ لَكُمُ اضْرِبُوا أَمْنُونَ وَاقْتُلُوهُ، فَلا تَخَافُوا. أَلَسْتُ أَنَا الَّذِي أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِذَلِكَ؟ تَشَجَّعُوا وَتَصَرَّفُوا كَأَبْطَالٍ». | 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.
| فَنَفَّذَ رِجَالُ أَبْشَالُومَ أَوَامِرَهُ وَقَتَلُوا أَمْنُونَ، فَهَبَّ جَمِيعُ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَلِكِ وَامْتَطَوْا بِغَالَهُمْ 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 الطَّرِيقِ بَلَغَ الْخَبَرُ دَاوُدَ وَقِيلَ لَهُ: «قَتَلَ أَبْشَالُومُ جَمِيعَ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَلِكِ وَلَمْ يَسْلَمْ 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 الْمَلِكُ وَمَزَّقَ ثِيَابَهُ وَانْطَرَحَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، يُحِيطُ بِهِ جَمِيعُ رِجَالِ حَاشِيَتِهِ مُمَزَّقِي الثِّيَابِ. | 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.
| وَلَكِنَّ يُونَادَابَ بْنَ شِمْعَي أَخِي دَاوُدَ قَالَ: «لا يَظُنَّ سَيَّدِي أَنَّهُمْ قَتَلوا جَمِيعَ أَبْنَاءِ المَلِكِ. إِنَّمَا أَمْنُونُ وَحْدَهُ هُوَ الَّذِي مَاتَ، لأَنَّ أَبْشَالُومَ قَدْ أَضْمَرَ لَهُ هَذَا الشَّرَّ مُنْذُ أَنِ اغْتَصَبَ أُخْتَهُ ثَامَارَ. | 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.
| فَلا يُخَالِجْ قَلْبَ الْمَلِكِ أَنَّ جَمِيعَ أَبْنَائِهِ قَدْ قُتِلَوا، إِنَّمَا أَمْنُونُ وَحْدَهُ هُوَ الَّذِي اُغْتِيلَ». | 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.
| وَهَربَ أَبْشَالُومُ. وَشَاهَدَ الرَّقِيبُ الْمُكَلَّفُ جَمْعاً غَفِيراً قَادِماً فِي الطَّرِيقِ الْمُوَازِي لِلْجَبَلِ، | ٣٤ |
35 And Jonadab said to the king, Behold, the king's sons come: as thy servant said, so it is.
| فَقَالَ يُونَادَابُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «هَا أَبْنَاءُ الْمَلِكِ قَدْ جَاءُوا. تَمَاماً كَمَا قَالَ عَبْدُكَ». | 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.
| وَمَا إِنْ فَرَغَ مِنْ حَدِيثِهِ حَتَّى جَاءَ بَنُو الْمَلِكِ نَائِحِينَ، وَكَذَلِكَ بَكَى الْمَلِكُ وَرِجَالُ حَاشِيَتِهِ بُكَاءً مُرّاً. | ٣٦ |
37 And Absalom fled, and went to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And [David] mourned for his son every day.
| وَعِنْدَمَا هَرَبَ أَبْشَالُومُ لَجَأَ إِلَى تِلْمَايَ بْنِ عَمِّيهُودَ مَلِكِ جَشُورَ. وَنَاحَ دَاوُدُ عَلَى أَمْنُونَ طَوَالَ أَيَّامِ الْمَنَاحَةِ. | ٣٧ |
38 Now Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.
| وَمَكَثَ أَبْشَالُومُ فِي جَشُورَ ثَلاثَ سَنَوَاتٍ. | ٣٨ |
39 And king David longed to go forth to Absalom; for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
| وَمَا لَبِثَ أَنْ تَعَزَّى دَاوُدُ عَنْ أَمْنُونَ الْمُتَوَفَّى، فَاشْتَاقَتْ نَفْسُهُ لِلِقَاءِ أَبْشَالُومَ. | ٣٩ |
