1 Samuel 2
1 And Hannah prayed, and said: my heart exulteth in the LORD, my horn is exalted in the LORD; my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in Thy salvation.
| وَصَلَّتْ حَنَّةُ قَائِلَةً: «ابْتَهَجَ قَلْبِي بِالرَّبِّ وَسَمَتْ عِزَّتِي بِهِ. أَفْتَخِرُ عَلَى أَعْدَائِي لأَنِّي فَرِحْتُ بِخَلاصِكَ. | ١ |
2 There is none holy as the LORD, for there is none beside Thee; neither is there any rock like our God.
| إِذْ لَيْسَ قُدُّوسٌ نَظِيرَ الرَّبِّ، وَلا يُوْجَدُ مَنْ يُمَاثِلُكَ، وَلَيْسَ صَخْرَةٌ كَإِلَهِنَا. | ٢ |
3 Multiply not exceeding proud talk; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth; for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by Him actions are weighed.
| كُفُّوا عِنِ الْكِبْرِيَاءِ، وَكُمُّوا أَفْوَاهَكُمْ عَنِ الْغُرُورِ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهٌ عَلِيمٌ وَبِهِ تُوْزَنُ الأَعْمَالُ. | ٣ |
4 The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
| لَقَدْ تَحَطَّمَتْ أَقْوَاسُ الْجَبَابِرَةِ وَتَنَطَّقَ الضُّعَفَاءُ بِالْقُوَّةِ. | ٤ |
5 They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry have ceased; while the barren hath borne seven, she that had many children hath languished.
| الَّذِينَ كَانُوا شَبَاعَى آجَرُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ لِقَاءَ الطَّعَامِ، وَالَّذِينَ كَانُوا جِيَاعاً مَلأَهُمُ الشِّبَعُ. أَنْجَبَتِ الْعَاقِرُ سَبْعَةً، أَمَّا كَثِيرَةُ الأَبْنَاءِ فَقَدْ ذَبُلَتْ. | ٥ |
| الرَّبُّ يُمِيتُ وَيُحْيِي، يَطْرَحُ إِلَى الْهَاوِيَةِ وَيُصْعِدُ مِنْهَا. (Sheol h7585) | ٦ |
7 The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich; He bringeth low, He also lifteth up.
| الرَّبُّ يُفْقِرُ وَيُغْنِي، يُذِلُّ وَيُعِزُّ. | ٧ |
8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, He lifteth up the needy from the dung-hill, to make them sit with princes, and inherit the throne of glory; for the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, and He hath set the world upon them.
| يُنْهِضُ الْمِسْكِينَ مِنَ التُّرَابِ، وَيَرْفَعُ الْبَائِسَ مِنْ كَوْمَةِ الرَّمَادِ، لِيُجْلِسَهُ مَعَ النُّبَلاءِ، وَيُمَلِّكَهُ عَرْشَ الْمَجْدِ، لأَنَّ لِلرَّبِّ أَسَاسَاتِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَرْسَى عَلَيْهَا الْمَسْكُونَةَ. | ٨ |
9 He will keep the feet of His holy ones, but the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness; for not by strength shall man prevail.
| هُوَ يَحْفَظُ أَقْدَامَ أَتْقِيَائِهِ، أَمَّا الأَشْرَارُ فَيَنْطَوُونَ فِي الظَّلامِ، لأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِالْقُوَّةِ يَتَغَلَّبُ الإِنْسَانُ. | ٩ |
10 They that strive with the LORD shall be broken to pieces; against them will He thunder in heaven; the LORD will judge the ends of the earth; and He will give strength unto His king, and exalt the horn of His anointed.
| مُخَاصِمُو الرَّبِّ يَتَحَطَّمُونَ، وَمِنَ السَّمَاءِ يَقْذِفُ رُعُودَهُ عَلَيْهِمْ؛ يَدِينُ الرَّبُّ أَقَاصِيَ الأَرْضِ، وَيَمْنَحُ عِزَّةً لِمَنْ يَخْتَارُهُ مَلِكاً وَيُمَجِّدُ مَسِيحَهُ». | ١٠ |
11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the LORD before Eli the priest.
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ أَلْقَانَةُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ فِي الرَّامَةِ، وَظَلَّ الصَّبِيُّ يَخْدُمُ الرَّبَّ لَدَى عَالِي الْكَاهِنِ. | ١١ |
12 Now the sons of Eli were base men; they knew not the LORD.
| أَمَّا ابْنَا عَالِي فَكَانَا مُتَوَرِّطَيْنِ فِي الشَّرِّ لَا يَعْرِفَانِ الرَّبَّ | ١٢ |
13 And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a flesh-hook of three teeth in his band;
| وَلا حَقَّ الْكَهَنَةِ الْمَتَوَجِّبَ عَلَى الشَّعْبِ. فَكَانَ كُلَّمَا قَدَّمَ رَجُلٌ ذَبِيحَةً يَأْتِي غُلامُ الْكَاهِنِ عِنْدَ طَبْخِ اللَّحْمِ حَامِلاً بِيَدِهِ خُطَّافاً ذَا ثلاثِ شُعَبٍ. | ١٣ |
14 and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the flesh-hook brought up the priest took therewith. So they did unto all the Israelites that came thither in Shiloh.
| فَيَغْرِزُهُ فِي اللَّحْمِ الَّذِي في الْمَرْحَضَةِ أَوِ الْمِرْجَلِ أَوِ الْمِقْلَى أَوِ الْقِدْرِ، وَيَأْخُذُ الْكَاهِنُ كُلَّ مَا يَعْلَقُ بِشُعَبِ الْخُطَّافِ. هَكَذَا كَانَا يُعَامِلانِ جَمِيعَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ الْقَادِمِينَ إِلَى شِيلُوهَ. | ١٤ |
15 Yea, before the fat was made to smoke, the priest's servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed: 'Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of thee, but raw.'
| كَذَلِكَ كَانَ خَادِمُ الْكَاهِنِ يَأْتِي إِلَى ذَابِحِ الْقُرْبَانِ وَيَقُولُ لَهُ قَبْلَ إِحْرَاقِ الشَّحْمِ: «أَعْطِ لَحْماً لِلْكَاهِنِ حَتَّى يُشْوَى، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَقْبَلُ مِنْكَ لَحْماً مَطْبُوخاً بَلْ نِيئاً». | ١٥ |
16 And if the man said unto him: 'Let the fat be made to smoke first of all, and then take as much as thy soul desireth'; then he would say: 'Nay, but thou shalt give it me now; and if not, I will take it by force.'
| فَيُجِيبُهُ الرَّجُلُ: «لِيُحْرِقُوا أَوَّلاً شَحْمَ الذَّبِيحَةِ، ثُمَّ خُذْ مَا تَشْتَهِيهِ نَفْسُكَ». فَيَقُولُ الْخَادِمُ: «لا، بَلْ أَعْطِنِي الآنَ اللَّحْمَ وَإلَّا آخُذُهُ بِالرَّغْمِ عَنْكَ». | ١٦ |
17 And the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD; for the men dealt contemptuously with the offering of the LORD.
| فَعَظُمَتْ خَطِيئَةُ أَبْنَاءِ عَالِي أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، لأَنَّ الشَّعْبَ اسْتَهَانَ بِذَبِيحَةِ الرَّبِّ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ تَصَرُّفَاتِهِمَا. | ١٧ |
18 But Samuel ministered before the LORD, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
| وَكَانَ صَمُوئِيلُ آنَئِذٍ يَخْدُمُ فِي مَحْضَرِ الرَّبِّ وَهُوَ مَا بَرِحَ صَبِيًّا، يَرْتَدِي أَفُوداً مِنْ كَتَّانٍ. | ١٨ |
19 Moreover his mother made him a little robe, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
| وَكَانَتْ أُمُّهُ تَصْنَعُ لَهُ جُبَّةً صَغِيرَةً، تُحْضِرُهَا مَعَهَا كُلَّ سَنَةٍ عِنْدَ مَجِيءِ رَجُلِهَا لِتَقْرِيبِ الذَّبِيحَةِ السَّنَوِيَّةِ، | ١٩ |
20 And Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, and say: 'The LORD give thee seed of this woman for the loan which was lent to the LORD.' And they would go unto their own home.
| فَيُبَارِكُ عَالِي أَلْقَانَةَ وَزَوْجَتَهُ قَائِلاً: «لِيَرْزُقْكَ الرَّبُّ ذُرِّيَّةً مِنْ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةِ عِوَضاً عَنِ الصَّبِيِّ الَّذِي وَهَبْتُمَاهُ لِلرَّبِّ». ثُمَّ يَرْجِعَانِ إِلَى حَيْثُ يُقِيمَانِ. | ٢٠ |
21 So the LORD remembered Hannah, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.
| وَعِنْدَمَا افْتَقَدَ الرَّبُّ حَنَّةَ، حَمَلَتْ وَأَنْجَبَتْ ثَلاثَةَ أَبْنَاءٍ وَبِنْتَيْنِ. أَمَّا صَمُوئِيلُ فَقَدْ تَرَعْرَعَ فِي خِدْمَةِ الرَّبِّ. | ٢١ |
22 Now Eli was very old; and he heard all that his sons did unto all Israel, and how that they lay with the women that did service at the door of the tent of meeting.
| وَطَعَنَ عَالِي فِي السِّنِّ. وَبَلَغَهُ مَا ارْتَكَبَهُ بَنوهُ مَنْ مَسَاوِئَ بِحَقِّ جَمِيِع الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ، وَأَنَّهُمْ كَانَوا يُضَاجِعَونِ النِّسَاءَ الْمُجْتَمِعَاتِ عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ. | ٢٢ |
23 And he said unto them: 'Why do ye such things? for I hear evil reports concerning you from all this people.
| فَقَال لَهُمْ: «لِمَاذَا تَرْتَكِبُونَ هَذِهِ الْفَوَاحِشَ، فَقَدْ بَلَغَتْنِي أَخْبَارُ مَسَاوِئِكُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ؟ | ٢٣ |
24 Nay, my sons; for it is no good report which I hear the LORD'S people do spread abroad.
| لا، يا بَنِيَّ، فَالأَخْبَارُ الَّتِي بَلَغَتْنِي مُشِينَةٌ، إِذْ إِنَّكُمْ تَجْعَلُونَ الشَّعْبَ يَتَعَدَّى عَلَى شَرِيعَةِ الرَّبِّ. | ٢٤ |
25 If one man sin against another, God shall judge him; but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall entreat for him?' But they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because the LORD would slay them.
| فَإِنْ أَخْطَأَ إِنْسَانٌ نَحْوَ إِنْسَانٍ، فَاللهُ يَدِينُهُ، وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَخْطَأَ إِلَى الرَّبِّ فَمَنْ يُصَلِّي مِنْ أَجْلِهِ؟» لَكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُعِيرَوا تَوْبِيخَ أَبِيهِمْ أَيَّ اهْتِمَامٍ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ شَاءَ أَنْ يُمِيتَهُمْ. | ٢٥ |
26 And the child Samuel grew on, and increased in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.
| أَمَّا الصَّبِيُّ صَمُوئِيلُ فَاسْتَمَرَّ يَنْمُو فِي الصَّلاحِ وَيَحْظَى بِرِضَى اللهِ وَالنَّاسِ. | ٢٦ |
27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him: 'Thus saith the LORD: Did I reveal Myself unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in bondage to Pharaoh's house?
| وَذَاتَ يَوْمٍ جَاءَ نَبِيٌّ إِلَى عَالِي بِرِسَالَةٍ مِنَ اللهِ، قَالَ: «أَلَمْ أَتَجَلَّ لِبَيْتِ أَبِيكَ وَهُمْ مَا بَرِحُوا فِي مِصْرَ فِي دِيَارِ فِرْعَوْنَ، | ٢٧ |
28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be My priest, to go up unto Mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before Me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings of the children of Israel made by fire?
| وَانْتَخَبْتُ أَبَاكُمْ هرُونَ مِنْ بَيْنِ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَكُونَ لِي كَاهِناً يُصْعِدُ عَلَى مَذْبَحِي قَرَابِينَ وَيُوْقِدُ بَخُوراً، وَيَرْتَدِي أَمَامِي أَفُوداً، وَوَهَبْتُ لِبَيْتِ أَبِيكَ جَمِيعَ وَقائِدِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٨ |
29 Wherefore kick ye at My sacrifice and at Mine offering, which I have commanded in My habitation; and honourest thy sons above Me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel My people?
| فَلِمَاذَا تَحْتَقِرُونَ ذَبِيحَتِي وَتَقْدِمَتِي الَّتِي أَمَرْتُ بِها لِلْمَسْكَنِ، وَتُفَضِّلُ ابْنَيْكَ عَنِّي لِتُكَدِّسُوا الشَّحْمَ عَلَى أَبْدَانِكُمْ، مِمَّا تَخَيَّرْتُمُوهُ مِنْ قَرَابِينِ شَعْبِي؟ | ٢٩ |
30 Therefore the LORD, the God of Israel, saith: I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before Me for ever; but now the LORD saith: Be it far from Me: for them that honour Me I will honour, and they that despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.
| لِذَلِكَ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: لَقَدْ وَعَدْتُ أَنْ يَظَلَّ بَيْتُكَ وَبَيْتُ أَبِيكَ يَخْدُمُونَ فِي مَحْضَرِي إِلَى الأَبَدِ. أَمَّا الآنَ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: فَحَاشَا لِي أَنْ أَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ، لأَنَّنِي أُكْرِمُ الَّذِينَ يُكْرِمُونَنِي، أَمَّا الَّذِينَ يَحْتَقِرُونَنِي فَيَصْغُرُونَ. | ٣٠ |
31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house.
| هَا هِي أَيَّامٌ مُقْبِلَةٌ يَخْطِفُ فِيهَا الْمَوْتُ رِجَالَكُمْ فَلا يَبْقَى شَيْخٌ فِي بَيْتِكَ. | ٣١ |
32 And thou shalt behold a rival in My habitation, in all the good which shall be done to Israel; and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever.
| وَتَشْهَدُ ضِيقاً فِي مَسْكَنِي، بَيْنَمَا يَنْعَمُ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ بِالرَّفَاهِيَةِ وَيَخْلُو بَيْتُكَ مِنَ الشُّيُوخِ كُلَّ الأَيَّامِ. | ٣٢ |
33 Yet will I not cut off every man of thine from Mine altar, to make thine eyes to fail, and thy heart to languish; and all the increase of thy house shall die young men.
| وَيَكُونُ مَنْ أَسْتَحْيِيهِ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ لِخِدْمَةِ مَذْبَحِي سَبَباً فِي إعْشَاءِ عَيْنَيْكَ بِالْدُّمُوعِ وَإِذَابَةِ قَلْبِكَ بِالْحُزْنِ، وَبَقِيَّةُ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ يَمُوتُونَ شُبَّاناً. | ٣٣ |
34 And this shall be the sign unto thee, that which shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall die both of them.
| وَتَصْدِيقاً لِقَوْلِي أُعْطِيكَ عَلامَةً تُصِيبُ ابْنَيْكَ حُفْنِي وَفِينْحَاسَ: إِنَّهُمَا فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ يَمُوتَانِ كِلاهُمَا. | ٣٤ |
35 And I will raise Me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in My heart and in My mind; and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before Mine anointed for ever.
| فَأَخْتَارُ لِنَفْسِي كَاهِناً مُخْلِصاً يَعْمَلُ بِمُقْتَضَى مَا بِقَلْبِي وَنَفْسِي فَأُقِيمُ لَهُ بَيْتاً أَمِيناً، وَيَصِيرُ كَاهِناً لِلْمَلِكِ الَّذِي أَخْتَارُهُ. | ٣٥ |
36 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in thy house shall come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say: Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a morsel of bread.'
| وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَبْقَى مِنْ ذَرِّيَّتِكَ يَأْتِي إِلَيْهِ سَاجِداً مُتَوَسِّلاً مَنْ أَجْلِ قِطْعَةِ فِضَّةٍ وَرَغِيفِ خُبْزٍ، مُتَضَرِّعاً إِلَيْهِ قَائِلاً: هَبْنِي عَمَلاً بَيْنَ الْكَهَنَةِ لِآكُلَ كِسْرَةَ خُبْزٍ». | ٣٦ |
