2 Kings 19
1 And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD.
| وَعِنْدَمَا سَمِعَ الْمَلِكُ حَزَقِيَّا ذَلِكَ مَزَّقَ ثِيَابَهُ وَارْتَدَى مُسُوحاً وَلَجَأَ إِلَى بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ. | ١ |
2 And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.
| ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ أَلْيَاقِيمَ مُدِيرَ شُؤُونِ الْقَصْرِ وَشِبْنَةَ الْكَاتِبَ وَرُؤَسَاءَ الْكَهَنَةِ وَهُمْ مُرْتَدُونَ الْمُسُوحَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ إِشَعْيَاءَ بْنِ آمُوصَ، | ٢ |
3 And they said unto him: 'Thus saith Hezekiah: This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of contumely; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
| فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ حَزَقِيَّا: هَذَا الْيَوْمُ هُوَ يَوْمُ ضِيقٍ وَإِهَانَةٍ وَكَرْبٍ، فَإِنَّنَا كَالأَجِنَّةِ الْمُشْرِفَةِ عَلَى الْوِلادَةِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَتَوَافَرَ لَهَا الْقُوَّةُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ. | ٣ |
4 It may be the LORD thy God will hear all the words of Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to taunt the living God, and will rebuke the words which the LORD thy God hath heard; wherefore make prayer for the remnant that is left.'
| فَلَعَلَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ يَسْمَعُ وَعِيدَ الْقَائِدِ الأَشُّورِيِّ الَّذِي أَوْفَدَهُ سَيِّدُهُ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ، لِيُهِينَ الإِلَهَ الْحَيَّ فَيُعَاقِبَهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ عَلَى مَا صَدَرَ مِنْهُ مِنْ تَعْيِيرٍ، فَصَلِّ مِنْ أَجْلِ الْبَقِيَّةِ النَّاجِيَةِ مِنَّا». | ٤ |
5 So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
| فَجَاءَ رِجَالُ الْمَلِكِ حَزَقِيَّا لإِشَعْيَاءَ، | ٥ |
6 And Isaiah said unto them: 'Thus shall ye say to your master: Thus saith the LORD: Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ إِشَعْيَاءُ: «بَلِّغوا سَيِّدَكُمْ: هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: لَا تَجْزَعْ مِمَّا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ تَجْدِيفِ رِجَالِ مَلِكِ أَشُورَ عَلَيَّ. | ٦ |
7 Behold, I will put a spirit in him, and he shall hear a rumour, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.'
| فَهَا خَبَرٌ سَيِّئٌ يَرِدُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ بِلادِهِ يَحْمِلُهُ عَلَى الْعَوْدَةِ إِلَيْهَا حَيْثُ أَقْضِي عَلَيْهِ بِحَدِّ السَّيْفِ فِي عُقْرِ دَارِهِ». | ٧ |
8 So Rab-shakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
| وَعِنْدَمَا عَلِمَ قَائِدُ الْجَيْشِ الأَشُورِيُّ بِأَنَّ مَلِكَ أَشُورَ قَدِ ارْتَحَلَ عَنْ لَخِيشَ وَشَرَعَ فِي مُحَارَبَةِ لِبْنَةَ، انْسَحَبَ هُوَ أَيْضاً وَانْضَمَّ إِلَيْهِ هُنَاكَ. | ٨ |
9 And when he heard say of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia: 'Behold, he is come out to fight against thee'; he sent messengers again unto Hezekiah, saying:
| وَبَلَغَ مَلِكُ أَشُورَ أَنَّ تُرْهَاقَةَ مَلِكَ كُوشٍ قَدْ خَرَجَ لِمُحَارَبَتِهِ، فَبَعَثَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى رُسُلاً إِلَى حَزَقِيَّا قَائِلاً: | ٩ |
10 'Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying: Let not thy God in whom thou trustest beguile thee, saying: Jerusalem shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
| «هَذَا مَا تُبَلِّغُونَهُ إِلَى حَزَقِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا: لَا يَخْدَعْكَ إِلَهُكَ الَّذِي تَتَّكِلُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَمَا يَقُولُ لَنْ تَسْقُطَ أُورُشَلِيمُ فِي قَبْضَةِ مَلِكِ أَشُورَ، | ١٠ |
11 Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly; and shalt thou be delivered?
| فَهَا أَنْتَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ بِمَا أَلْحَقَهُ مُلُوكُ أَشُورَ بِكُلِّ الْبُلْدَانِ مِنْ تَدْمِيرٍ كَامِلٍ فَهَلْ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ تَنْجُوَ أَنْتَ؟ | ١١ |
12 Have the gods of the nations delivered them, which my fathers have destroyed, Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden that were in Telassar?
| هَلْ أَنْقَذَتْ آلِهَةُ الأُمَمِ الأُخْرَى أَهْلَ جُوزَانَ وَحَارَانَ وَرَصْفَ وَبَنِي عَدَنَ الَّذِينَ فِي تَلَسَّارَ الَّذينَ أَفْنَاهُمْ آبَائِي؟ | ١٢ |
13 Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?'
| أَيْنَ مَلِكُ حَمَاةَ وَمَلِكُ أَرْفَادَ وَمَلِكُ مَدِينَةِ سَفْرَوَايِمَ وَهَيْنَعَ وَعَوَّا؟» | ١٣ |
14 And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it; and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD.
| فَتَنَاوَلَ حَزَقِيَّا الْكِتَابَ مِنْ أَيْدِي الرُّسُلِ وَقَرَأَهُ، ثُمَّ تَوَجَّهَ إِلَى هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ وَبَسَطَهُ أَمَامَهُ. | ١٤ |
15 And Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said: 'O LORD, the God of Israel, that sittest upon the cherubim, Thou art the God, even Thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; Thou hast made heaven and earth.
| وَصَلَّى قَائِلاً: «أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، الْمُتَرَبِّعُ فَوْقَ الْكَرُوبِيمَ، أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ إِلَهُ كُلِّ مَمَالِكِ الأَرْضِ. أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ خَلَقْتَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ. | ١٥ |
16 Incline Thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open Thine eyes, O LORD, and see; and hear the words of Sennacherib, wherewith he hath sent him to taunt the living God.
| أَرْهِفْ يَا رَبُّ أُذُنَيْكَ وَاسْتَمِعْ. افْتَحْ يَا رَبُّ عَيْنَيْكَ وَانْظُرْ، وَاسْمَعْ كُلَّ تَهْدِيدَاتِ سَنْحَارِيبَ الَّتِي أَرْسَلَهَا لِيُعَيِّرَ اللهَ الْحَيَّ. | ١٦ |
17 Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands,
| حَقّاً يَا رَبُّ إِنَّ مُلُوكَ أَشُّورَ قَدْ أَهْلَكُوا الأُمَمَ وَدَمَّرُوا دِيَارَهُمْ، | ١٧ |
18 and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; therefore they have destroyed them.
| وَطَرَحُوا آلِهَتَهُمْ إِلَى النَّارِ وَأَبَادُوهَا لأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ فِعْلاً آلِهَةً بَلْ خَشَباً وَحِجَارَةً مِنْ صَنْعَةِ أَيْدِي النَّاسِ، | ١٨ |
19 Now therefore, O LORD our God, save Thou us, I beseech Thee, out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that Thou art the LORD God, even Thou only.'
| فَخَلِّصْنَا الآنَ أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا مِنْ يَدِهِ، فَتُدْرِكَ مَمَالِكُ الأَرْضِ بِأَسْرِهَا أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ». | ١٩ |
20 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying: 'Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: Whereas thou hast prayed to Me against Sennacherib king of Assyria, I have heard thee.
| فَبَعَثَ إِشَعْيَاءُ بْنُ آمُوصَ إِلَى حَزَقِيَّا قَائِلاً: «هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي تَضَرَّعْتَ إِلَيْهِ لِيُنْقِذَكَ مِنْ سَنْحَارِيبَ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ: قَدْ سَمِعْتُ». | ٢٠ |
21 This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning him: The virgin daughter of Zion hath despised thee and laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.
| وَهَذَا هُوَ رَدُّ الرَّبِّ عَلَيْهِ: «هَا الْعَذْرَاءُ ابْنَةُ صِهْيَوْنَ قَدِ احْتَقَرَتْكَ وَاسْتَهْزَأَتْ بِكَ، وَهَزَّتِ ابْنَةُ أُورُشَلِيمَ رَأْسَهَا سُخْرِيَةً مِنْكَ. | ٢١ |
22 Whom hast thou taunted and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice? Yea, thou hast lifted up thine eyes on high, even against the Holy One of Israel!
| مَنْ عَيَّرْتَ وَجَدَّفْتَ عَلَيْهِ؟ وَعَلَى مَنْ رَفَعْتَ صَوْتاً وَشَمَخْتَ بِعَيْنَيْكَ زَهْواً؟ أَعَلَى قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ٢٢ |
23 By the messengers thou hast taunted the Lord, and hast said: With the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the innermost parts of Lebanon; and I have cut down the tall cedars thereof, and the choice cypresses thereof; and I have entered into his farthest lodge, the forest of his fruitful field.
| لَقَدْ عَيَّرْتَ السَّيِّدَ عَلَى لِسَانِ رُسُلِكَ، وَقُلْتَ: بِكَثْرَةِ مَرْكَبَاتِي قَدْ صَعِدْتُ إِلَى أَعَالِي الْجِبَالِ، وَبَلَغْتُ أَقَاصِي لُبْنَانَ قَاطِعاً أَطْوَلَ أَرْزِهِ وَخِيَارَ سَرْوِهِ وَاخْتَرَقْتُ أَبْعَدَ رُبُوعِهِ وأَفْضَلَ غَابَاتِهِ. | ٢٣ |
24 I have digged and drunk strange waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of Egypt.
| قَدْ حَفَرْتُ آبَاراً فِي أَرْضٍ غَرِيبَةٍ وَشَرِبْتُ مِيَاهاً، وَبِبَاطِنِ قَدَمَيَّ جَفَّفْتُ جَمِيعَ خُلْجَانِ مِصْرَ. | ٢٤ |
25 Hast thou not heard? long ago I made it, in ancient times I fashioned it; now have I brought it to pass, yea, it is done; that fortified cities should be laid waste into ruinous heaps.
| أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ؟ مُنْذُ زَمَنٍ طَوِيلٍ قَدَّرْتُ ذَلِكَ. مُنْذُ الأَيَّامِ الْقَدِيمَةِ قَرَّرْتُهُ وَهَا أَنَا الآنَ أُحَقِّقُهُ، إِذْ أَقَمْتُكَ لِتَدْمِيرِ مُدُنٍ مُحَصَّنَةٍ فَتُحَوِّلُهَا إِلَى رَوَابِي خَرِبَةٍ. | ٢٥ |
26 Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it is grown up.
| وَقَدْ خَارَتْ قُوَى أَهْلِهَا فَأَصْبَحُوا مُرْتَاعِينَ خَجِلِينَ، صَارُوا كَعُشْبِ الْحَقْلِ، كَالنَّبَاتِ اللَّيِّنِ وَكَحَشِيشِ السُّطُوحِ الذَّاوِي قَبْلَ نُمُوِّهِ. | ٢٦ |
27 But I know thy sitting down, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy raging against Me.
| وَلَكِنِّي مُطَّلِعٌ عَلَى حَرَكَاتِكَ وَسَكَنَاتِكَ وَهَيَجَانِكَ عَلَيَّ. | ٢٧ |
28 Because of thy raging against Me, and for that thy tumult is come up into Mine ears, therefore will I put My hook in thy nose, and My bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.
| وَلأَنَّ ثَوْرَتَكَ عَلَيَّ وَعَجْرَفَتَكَ قَدْ بَلَغَتَا مَسَامِعِي، فَإِنِّي سَأَشْكُمُكَ بِخِزَامَتِي فِي أَنْفِكَ، وَأَضَعُ لِجَامِي فِي فَمِكَ، وَأُعِيدُكَ فِي نَفْسِ الطَّرِيقِ الَّذِي أَقْبَلْتَ مِنْهُ. | ٢٨ |
29 And this shall be the sign unto thee: ye shall eat this year that which groweth of itself, and in the second year that which springeth of the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof.
| وَهَذِهِ عَلامَةٌ لَكَ يَا حَزَقِيَّا: فِي هَذِهِ السَّنَةِ تَأْكُلُونَ مِمَّا نَبَتَ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ، وَفِي السَّنَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ تَأْكُلُونَ مِمَّا يَنْبُتُ عَنْهُ، وَأَمَّا فِي السَّنَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ فَتَزْرَعُونَ فِيهَا وَتَحْصُدُونَ وَتَغْرِسُونَ كُروُماً وَتَجْنُونَ أَثْمَارَهَا. | ٢٩ |
30 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.
| وَيَعُودُ النَّاجُونَ الْبَاقُونَ مِنْ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا، فَتَتَأَصَّلُ جُذُورُهُمْ فِي الأَرْضِ، وَيَحْمِلُونَ أَثْمَاراً عَلَى أَغْصَانِهِمْ، | ٣٠ |
31 For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and out of mount Zion they that shall escape; the zeal of the LORD of hosts shall perform this.
| لأَنَّ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ تَخْرُجُ الْبَقِيَّةُ، وَمِنْ جَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ يَأْتِي النَّاجُونَ، فَغَيْرَةُ الرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ تَصْنَعُ هَذَا. | ٣١ |
32 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come unto this city, nor shoot an arrow there, neither shall he come before it with shield, nor cast a mound against it.
| لِذَلِكَ فَهَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ عَنْ مَلِكِ أَشُورَ: لَنْ يَدْخُلَ هَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةَ وَلَنْ يُطْلِقَ عَلَيْهَا سَهْماً أَوْ يَتَقَدَّمَ نَحْوَهَا بِتُرْسٍ وَلَنْ يُقِيمَ عَلَيْهَا مِقْلاعاً. | ٣٢ |
33 By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and he shall not come unto this city, saith the LORD.
| بَلْ يَرْجِعَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ الَّذِي جَاءَ مِنْهُ، وَلَنْ يَدْخُلَ هَذِهِ الْمَدِينَةَ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٣٣ |
34 For I will defend this city to save it, for Mine own sake, and for My servant David's sake.'
| لأَنَّنِي أُدَافِعُ عَنْهَا، وَأُنْقِذُهَا مِنْ أَجْلِ نَفْسِي، وَإِكْرَاماً لِدَاوُدَ عَبْدِي». | ٣٤ |
35 And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred fourscore and five thousand; and when men arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
| وَحَدَثَ فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ أَنَّ مَلاكَ الرَّبِّ قَتَلَ مِئَةً وَخَمْسَةً وَثَمَانِينَ أَلْفاً مِنْ جَيْشِ الأَشُورِيِّينَ، فَمَا إِنْ طَلَعَ الصَّبَاحُ حَتَّى كَانَتِ الْجُثَثُ الْمَيْتَةُ تَمْلأُ الْمَكَانَ. | ٣٥ |
36 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
| فَانْسَحَبَ سَنْحَارِيبُ مَلِكُ أَشُورَ وَارْتَدَّ إِلَى بِلادِهِ وَمَكَثَ فِي نِينَوَى. | ٣٦ |
37 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sarezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
| وَفِيمَا هُوَ يَتَعَبَّدُ فِي هَيْكَلِ إِلَهِهِ نِسْرُوخَ، اغْتَالَهُ ابْنَاهُ، أَدْرَمَّلَكُ وَشَرَآصِرُ، وَفَرَّا إِلَى أَرْضِ أَرَارَاطَ، فَخَلَفَهُ ابْنُهُ آسَرْحَدُّونُ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ. | ٣٧ |
