< Kings IV 9 >

1 And Elisaie the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up your loins, and take this cruse of oil in your hand, and go to Remmoth Galaad.
وَاسْتَدْعَى أَلِيشَعُ النَّبِيُّ أَحَدَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «تَمَنْطَقْ بِحِزَامِكَ وَخُذْ قِنِّينَةَ الزَّيْتِ مَعَكَ، وَانْطَلِقْ إِلَى رَامُوتِ جِلْعَادَ.١
2 And you shall enter there, and shall see there Ju the son of Josaphat son of Namessi, and shall go in and make him rise up from among his brethren, and shall bring him into a secret chamber.
وَحَالَمَا تَصِلُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ ابْحَثْ عَنْ يَاهُو بْنِ يَهُوشَافَاطَ بْنِ نِمْشِي، وَانْتَحِ بِهِ فِي مُخْدَعٍ دَاخِلِيٍّ،٢
3 And you shall take the cruse of oil, and pour [it] on his head, and say you, Thus says the Lord, I have anointed you king over Israel: and you shall open the door, and flee, and not wait.
وَصُبَّ مِنْ قِنِّينَةِ الزَّيْتِ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَقُلْ لَهُ: هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: قَدِ اخْتَرْتُكَ لِتَكُونَ مَلِكاً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. ثُمَّ افْتَحِ الْبَابَ وَأَسْرِعْ بِالْهَرَبِ مِنْ غَيْرِ تَوَانٍ».٣
4 And the young man the prophet went to Remmoth Galaad.
فَمَضَى النَّبِيُّ الشَّابُّ إِلَى رَامُوتِ جِلْعَادَ،٤
5 And he went in, and, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have a message to you, O captain. And Ju said, To which of all us? And he said, To you, O captain.
وَدَخَلَ حَيْثُ كَانَ الْقَادَةُ جُلُوساً. فَقَالَ: «لِي حَدِيثٌ خَاصٌّ مَعَكَ أَيُّهَا الْقَائِدُ» فَسَأَلَهُ يَاهُو: «مَعَ أَيِّ قَائِدٍ مِنَّا؟» فَأَجَابَ: «مَعَكَ أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا الْقَائِدُ».٥
6 And he arose, and went into the house: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said to him, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, I have anointed you to be king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel.
فَنَهَضَ وَتَبِعَهُ إِلَى مُخْدَعٍ دَاخِلِيٍّ، حَيْثُ صَبَّ النَّبِيُّ الزَّيْتَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: قَدِ اخْتَرْتُكَ لِتَكُونَ مَلِكاً عَلَى شَعْبِ الرَّبِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ،٦
7 And you shall utterly destroy the house of Achaab your master from before me, and shall avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, at the hand of Jezabel,
فَتَقْضِي عَلَى بَيْتِ آخْابَ سَيِّدِكَ وَتَنْتَقِمُ لِدِمَاءِ عَبِيدِي الأَنْبِيَاءِ وَدِمَاءِ جَمِيعِ أَتْقِيَاءِ الرَّبِّ مِنْ إِيزَابِل،٧
8 and at the hand of the whole house of Achaab: and you shall utterly cut off from the house of Achaab every male, and him that is shut up and left in Israel.
وَبِذَلِكَ تُفْنِي كُلَّ بَيْتِ آخْابَ، وَتَسْتَأْصِلُ مِنْ بَيْتِ آخْابَ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ، حُرّاً كَانَ أَمْ عَبْداً.٨
9 And I will make the house of Achaab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and as the house of Baasa the son of Achia.
وَتَجْعَلُ مَصِيرَ بَيْتِ آخْابَ كَمَصِيرِ بَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ نَبَاطَ، وَكَمَصِيرِ بَيْتِ بَعْشَا بْنِ أَخِيَّا.٩
10 And the dogs shall eat Jezabel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.
وَتَلْتَهِمُ الْكِلابُ إِيزَابِلَ فِي حَقْلِ يَزْرَعِيلَ، وَلَنْ تَجِدَ مَنْ يَدْفِنُهَا». ثُمَّ فَتَحَ الْبَابَ وَلاذَ بِالْفِرَارِ.١٠
11 And Ju went forth to the servants of his lord, and they said to him, [Is] all well? Why came this mad fellow in to you? And he said to them, You know the man, and his communication.
وَعِنْدَمَا رَجَعَ يَاهُو إِلَى حَيْثُ يَجْتَمِعُ رِجَالُ سَيِّدِهِ سُئِلَ: «أَخَيْرٌ؟ لِمَاذَا جَاءَكَ هَذَا الْمَجْنُونُ؟» فَأَجَابَهُمْ: «أَنْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ الرَّجُلَ وَمَا يَهْذِي بِهِ».١١
12 And they said, [It is] wrong: tell us now. And Ju said to them, Thus and thus spoke he to me, saying, —and he said, Thus says the Lord, I have anointed you to be king over Israel.
فَقَالُوا: «هَذَا لَيْسَ صَحِيحاً. أَخْبِرْنَا الصِّدْقَ». فَقَالَ: «إِلَيْكُمْ مَا خَاطَبَنِي بِهِ: قَالَ: هَذَا مَا صَدَرَ عَنِ الرَّبِّ: قَدِ اخْتَرْتُكَ لِتَكُونَ مَلِكاً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ».١٢
13 And when they heard it, they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with the trumpet, and said, Ju is king.
فَبَادَرَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ وَفَرَشَ ثَوْبَهُ فَوْقَ دَرَجَاتِ السُّلَّمِ حَيْثُ كَانَ يَقِفُ، وَنَفَخُوا بِالأَبْوَاقِ قَائِلِينَ: «قَدْ مَلَكَ يَاهُو».١٣
14 So Ju the son of Josaphat the son of Namessi conspired against Joram, and Joram was defending Remmoth Galaad, he and all Israel, because of Azael king of Syria.
وَهَكَذَا تَمَرَّدَ يَاهُو بْنُ يَهُوشَافَاطَ بْنِ نِمْشِي عَلَى يُورَامَ. وَكَانَ يُورَامُ مَعَ سَائِرِ جَيْشِ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُدَافِعُونَ عَنْ رَامُوتِ جِلْعَادَ ضِدَّ هَجَمَاتِ حَزَائِيلَ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ.١٤
15 And king Joram had returned to be healed in Jezrael of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, in his war with Azael king of Syria. And Ju said, If your heart is with me, let there not go forth out of the city one fugitive to go and report to Jezrael.
وَكَانَ يَهُورَامُ الْمَلِكُ قَدْ لَجَأَ إِلَى يَزْرَعِيلَ رَيْثَمَا يَبْرَأُ مِنَ الْجِرَاحِ الَّتِي أَصَابَهُ بِها الأَرَامِيُّونَ فِي حَرْبِهِ مَعَ حَزَائِيلَ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ. فَقَالَ يَاهُو: «إِنْ كَانَتْ هَذِهِ رَغْبَتَكُمْ فَلا تَدَعُوا أَحَداً يَنْسَلُّ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ لِيُذِيعَ الْخَبَرَ فِي يَزْرَعِيلَ».١٥
16 And Ju rode and advanced, and came down to Jezrael; for Joram king of Israel was getting healed in Jezrael of the arrow-wounds wherewith the Syrians [had] wounded him in Rammath in the war with Azael king of Syria; for he [was] strong and a mighty man: and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to see Joram.
ثُمَّ امْتَطَى مَرْكَبَتَهُ وَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى يَزْرَعِيلَ حَيْثُ كَانَ يُورَامُ مُضْطَجِعاً هُنَاكَ، وَقَدْ جَاءَ أَخَزْيَا مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا لِيَزُورَهُ.١٦
17 And there went up a watchman upon the tower of Jezrael, and saw the dust [made by] Ju as he approached; and he said, I see dust. And Joram said, Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Peace.
وَكَانَ الرَّقِيبُ قَائِماً عَلَى بُرْجِ يَزْرَعِيلَ، فَشَاهَدَ جَمَاعَةَ يَاهُو مُقْبِلِينَ، فَقَالَ لِلْمَلِكِ: «إِنِّي أَرَى قَوْماً قَادِمِينَ». فَأَمَرَهُ يَهُورَامُ: «أَرْسِلْ فَارِساً لِلِقَائِهِمْ، فَيَسْأَلَهُمْ: أَلِلْخَيْرِ قُدُومُهُمْ؟»١٧
18 And there went a horseman to meet them, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Ju said, What have you to do with peace? turn behind me. And the watchman reported, saying, The messenger came up to them, and has not returned.
فَانْدَفَعَ فَارِسٌ لِلِقَائِهِمْ قَائِلاً: «إِنَّ الْمَلِكَ يَسْأَلُ: أَلِلْخَيْرِ قُدُومُكُمْ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ يَاهُو: «مَا شَأْنُكَ بِالْخَيْرِ؟ دُرْ وَانْضَمَّ إِلَيَّ». فَقَالَ الرَّقِيبُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «قَدْ وَصَلَ الرَّسُولُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ».١٨
19 And he sent another horseman, and he came to him, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Ju said, What have you to do with peace? turn behind me.
فَأَرْسَلَ فَارِساً آخَرَ. فَلَمَّا الْتَقَاهُمْ قَالَ: «إِنَّ الْمَلِكَ يَسْأَلُ: أَلِلْخَيْرِ قُدُومُكُمْ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ يَاهُو: «مَا شَأْنُكَ بِالْخَيْرِ؟ دُرْ وَانْضَمَّ إِلَيَّ».١٩
20 And the watchman reported, saying, He came up to them, and has not returned: and the driver drives Ju the son of Namessi, for it is with furious [haste].
فَقَالَ الرَّقِيبُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «قَدْ وَصَلَ الرَّسُولُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَمْ يَرْجِعْ. وَقِيَادَةُ الْمَرْكَبَةِ شَبِيهَةٌ بِقِيَادَةِ يَاهُو بْنِ نِمْشِي، لأَنَّهُ يَقُودُهَا كَرَجُلٍ مَجْنُونٍ».٢٠
21 And Joram said, Make ready. And one made ready the chariot: and Joram the king of Israel went forth, and Ochozias king of Juda, each in his chariot, and they went to meet Ju, and found him in the portion of Nabuthai the Jezraelite.
فَأَمَرَ يَهُورَامُ بِتَجْهِيزِ مَرْكَبَتِهِ، وَخَرَجَ يُصَاحِبُهُ أَخَزْيَا مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا، كُلٌّ فِي مَرْكَبَتِهِ، لِلِقَاءِ يَاهُو. فَصَادَفَاهُ عِنْدَ حَقْلِ نَابُوتَ الْيَزْرَعِيلِيِّ٢١
22 And it came to pass when Joram saw Ju, that he said, [Is it] peace, Ju? And Ju said, How [can it be] peace? as yet [there are] the whoredoms of your mother Jezabel, and her abundant witchcrafts.
فَلَمَّا رَأَى يَهُورَامُ يَاهُو سَأَلَهُ: «أَلِلْخَيْرِ قُدُومُكَ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ يَاهُو: «أَيُّ خَيْرٍ مَادَامَ فُجُورُ أُمِّكَ إِيزَابِلَ وَسِحْرُهَا مُتَفَشِّيَيْنِ؟»٢٢
23 And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ochozias, Treachery, Ochozias.
فَأَمْسَكَ يَهُورَامُ زِمَامَ الْمَرْكَبَةِ وَأَطْلَقَ الْعِنَانَ لِخُيُولِهِ هَارِباً هَاتِفاً بِأَخَزْيَا: «خِيَانَةً يَا أَخَزْيَا!»٢٣
24 And Ju bent his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms, and his arrow went out at his heart, and he bowed upon his knees.
فَأَطْلَقَ يَاهُو سَهْماً عَلَى يَهُورَامَ اخْتَرَقَ ظَهْرَهُ وَنَفَذَ مِنْ قَلْبِهِ، فَأَرْدَاهُ قَتِيلاً فِي مَرْكَبَتِهِ،٢٤
25 And [Ju] said to Badecar his chief officer, Cast him into the portion of ground of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, for I and you remember, riding [as we were] on chariots after Achaab his father, that the Lord took up this burden against him, [saying],
وَقَالَ لِبِدْقَرَ قَائِدِ مَرْكَبَتِهِ: «ارْفَعْهُ وَاطْرَحْهُ فِي حَقْلِ نَابُوتَ الْيَزْرَعِيلِيِّ، وَتَذَكَّرْ كَيْفَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ، حِينَ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَأَنْتَ رَاكِبَيْنِ خَلْفَ أَبِيهِ آخْابَ قَدْ قَضَى عَلَيْهِ بِهَذَا الْعِقَابِ،٢٥
26 Surely, I have seen yesterday the blood of Nabuthai, and the blood of his sons, says the Lord; and I will recompense him in this portion, says the Lord. Now then, I pray you, take him up and cast him into the portion, according to the word of the Lord.
فَالرَّبُّ يَقُولُ: لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ أَمْساً دَمَ نَابُوتَ وَدِمَاءَ أَبْنَائِهِ، لِهَذَا لابُدَّ أَنْ أُعَاقِبَكَ فِي هَذَا الْحَقْلِ. فَالآنَ ارْفَعْهُ وَاطْرَحْهُ فِي الْحَقْلِ حَسَبَ قَوْلِ الرَّبِّ».٢٦
27 And Ochozias king of Juda saw [it], and fled by the way of Baethgan. And Ju pursued after him, and said, [Slay] him also. And one struck him in the chariot at the going up of Gai, which is Jeblaam: and he fled to Mageddo, and died there.
وَعِنْدَمَا رَأَى أَخَزْيَا مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا هَذَا، فَرَّ هَارِباً فِي الطَّرِيقِ الْمُفْضِيَةِ إِلَى بَيْتِ الْبُسْتَانِ، فَتَعَقَّبَهُ يَاهُو هَاتِفاً: «اقْتُلُوهُ». فَأَصَابُوهُ بِجِرَاحٍ مُمِيتَةٍ وَهُوَ فِي مَرْكَبَتِهِ عِنْدَ عَقَبَةِ جُورَ الْقَرِيبَةِ مِنْ يِبْلَعَامَ، وَلَكِنَّهُ تَابَعَ هَرَبَهُ إِلَى مَجِدُّو حَيْثُ مَاتَ هُنَاكَ.٢٧
28 And his servants put him on a chariot, and brought him to Jerusalem, and they buried him in his sepulchre in the city of David.
فَنَقَلَهُ رِجَالُهُ فِي مَرْكَبَتِهِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ حَيْثُ دَفَنُوهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ مَعَ آبَائِهِ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ.٢٨
29 And in the eleventh year of Joram king of Israel, Ochozias began to reign over Juda.
وَكَانَ أَخَزْيَا قَدْ مَلَكَ عَلَى يَهُوذَا فِي السَّنَةِ الْحَادِيَةِ عَشْرَةَ مِنْ حُكْمِ يُورَامَ بْنِ آخْابَ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ.٢٩
30 And Ju came to Jezrael; and Jezabel heard [of it], and coloured her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked through the window.
وَتَوَجَّهَ يَاهُو إِلَى يَزْرَعِيلَ. فَلَمَّا عَلِمَتْ إِيزَابِلُ بِذَلِكَ كَحَّلَتْ عَيْنَيْهَا وَزَيَّنَتْ شَعْرَهَا وَأَطَلَّتْ مِنَ الكُوَّةِ.٣٠
31 And Ju entered into the city; and she said, Had Zambri, the murderer of his master, peace?
وَعِنْدَمَا اجْتَازَ يَاهُو عَتَبَةَ بَابِ سَاحَةِ الْقَصْرِ قَالَتْ: «أَجِئْتَ مُسَالِماً يَا زِمْرِي يَا قَاتِلَ سَيِّدِهِ؟»٣١
32 And he lifted up his face toward the window, and saw her, and said, Who are you? Come down with me. And two eunuchs looked down towards him.
فَرَفَعَ وَجْهَهُ إِلَيْهَا وَصَاحَ: «مَنْ هُنَا مَعِي؟» فَأَشْرَفَ عَلَيْهِ اثْنَانِ أَوْ ثَلاثَةٌ مِنَ الْخِصْيَانِ.٣٢
33 And he said, Throw her [down]. And they threw her [down]; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and they trampled on her.
فَقَالَ: «اطْرَحُوهَا». فَأَلْقَوْا بِها مِنَ الكُوَّةِ فَتَنَاثَرَ بَعْضُ دَمِهَا عَلَى الْجِدَارِ وَعَلَى الْخَيْلِ الَّتِي دَاسَتْهَا بِحَوَافِرِهَا.٣٣
34 And [Ju] went in and ate and drank, and said, Look now, after this cursed woman, and bury her, for she is a king's daughter.
وَدَخَلَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى الْقَصْرِ حَيْثُ أَكَلَ وَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: «اذْهَبُوا وَافْتَقِدُوا هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةَ الْمَلْعُونَةَ وَادْفِنُوهَا، لأَنَّهَا بِنْتُ مَلِكٍ».٣٤
35 And they went to bury her; but they found nothing of her but the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.
وَعِنْدَمَا خَرَجُوا لِيَدْفِنُوهَا لَمْ يَجِدُوا مِنْ أَشْلائِهَا سِوَى الْجُمْجُمَةِ وَالرِّجْلَيْنِ وَكَفَّيِ الْيَدَيْنِ،٣٥
36 And they returned and told him. And he said, [It is] the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of Eliu the Thesbite, saying, In the portion of Jezrael shall the dogs eat the flesh of Jezabel.
فَرَجَعُوا وَأَخْبَرُوهُ، فَقَالَ: «هَذَا إِتْمَامٌ لِقَضَاءِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي نَطَقَ بِهِ عَلَى لِسَانِ إِيلِيَّا التِّشْبِيِّ قَائِلاً: إِنَّ الْكِلابَ سَتَلْتَهِمُ لَحْمَ إِيزَابِلَ فِي حَقْلِ يَزْرَعِيلَ.٣٦
37 And the carcass of Jezabel shall be as dung on the face of the field in the portion of Jezrael, so that they shall not say, [This is] Jezabel.
وَتُصْبِحُ جُثَّةُ إِيزَابِلَ كَالزِّبْلِ عَلَى وَجْهِ حَقْلِ يَزْرَعِيلَ بِحَيْثُ لَا يَتَعَرَّفُ عَلَيْهَا أَحَدٌ فَيَقُولُ: هَذِهِ إِيزَابِلُ».٣٧
