Joel 1
1 The word of the Lord that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.
| قَوْلُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي صَارَ إِلَى يُوئِيلَ بْنِ فَثُوئِيلَ: | ١ |
2 Hear this, ye old men, and give ear, all ye inhabitants of the land. Did ever such a thing as this come to pass in your days, or ever in the days of your fathers?
| اِسْمَعُوا هَذَا أَيُّهَا ٱلشُّيُوخُ، وَأَصْغُوا يَا جَمِيعَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ! هَلْ حَدَثَ هَذَا فِي أَيَّامِكُمْ، أَوْ فِي أَيَّامِ آبَائِكُمْ؟ | ٢ |
3 Tell ye of it to your children, and let your children tell it to their children, and their children to another generation.
| أَخْبِرُوا بَنِيكُمْ عَنْهُ، وَبَنُوكُمْ بَنِيهِمْ، وَبَنُوهُمْ دَوْرًا آخَرَ. | ٣ |
4 What the caterpillar left hath the locust eaten; and what the locust left hath the cankerworm eaten; and that which the cankerworm left hath the cricket eaten.
| فَضْلَةُ ٱلْقَمَصِ أَكَلَهَا ٱلزَّحَّافُ، وَفَضْلَةُ ٱلزَّحَّافِ أَكَلَهَا ٱلْغَوْغَاءُ، وَفَضْلَةُ ٱلْغَوْغَاءِ أَكَلَهَا ٱلطَّيَّارُ. | ٤ |
5 Wake up, ye drunkards, and weep; and wail, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the sweet new wine, that it is taken away from your mouth.
| اِصْحُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلسَّكَارَى، وَٱبْكُوا وَوَلْوِلُوا يَا جَمِيعَ شَارِبِي ٱلْخَمْرِ عَلَى ٱلْعَصِيرِ لِأَنَّهُ ٱنْقَطَعَ عَنْ أَفْوَاهِكُمْ. | ٥ |
6 For a nation is come up over my land, strong, and without number; its teeth are the teeth of a lion, and it hath the cutting-teeth of the lioness.
| إِذْ قَدْ صَعِدَتْ عَلَى أَرْضِي أُمَّةٌ قَوِيَّةٌ بِلَا عَدَدٍ، أَسْنَانُهَا أَسْنَانُ ٱلْأَسَدِ، وَلَهَا أَضْرَاسُ ٱللَّبْوَةِ. | ٦ |
7 It hath laid my vine waste, and barked my fig-tree: it hath peeled it clean bare, and cast it down; made white are its light branches.
| جَعَلَتْ كَرْمَتِي خَرِبَةً وَتِينَتِي مُتَهَشَّمَةً. قَدْ قَشَرَتْهَا وَطَرَحَتْهَا فَٱبْيَضَّتْ قُضْبَانُهَا. | ٧ |
8 Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the betrothed of her youth.
| نُوحِي يَا أَرْضِي كَعَرُوسٍ مُؤْتَزِرَةٍ بِمَسْحٍ مِنْ أَجْلِ بَعْلِ صِبَاهَا. | ٨ |
9 Cut off are the meat-offering and the drink-offering from the house of the Lord: now mourn the priests, the ministers of the Lord.
| ٱنْقَطَعَتِ ٱلتَّقْدِمَةُ وَٱلسَّكِيبُ عَنْ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. نَاحَتِ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ خُدَّامُ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٩ |
10 Wasted is the field, the land mourneth; for wasted is the corn: dried up is the new wine, withered is the oil.
| تَلِفَ ٱلْحَقْلُ، نَاحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ تَلِفَ ٱلْقَمْحُ، جَفَّ ٱلْمِسْطَارُ، ذَبُلَ ٱلزَّيْتُ. | ١٠ |
11 Be ashamed, O ye husbandmen; wail, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because lost is the harvest of the field.
| خَجِلَ ٱلْفَلَّاحُونَ، وَلْوَلَ ٱلْكَرَّامُونَ عَلَى ٱلْحِنْطَةِ وَعَلَى ٱلشَّعِيرِ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ تَلِفَ حَصِيدُ ٱلْحَقْلِ. | ١١ |
12 The vine is made ashamed, and the fig-tree is withered; the pomegranate-tree, the palm-tree also, and the apple-tree, even all the trees of the field, are dried up; because joy hath ceased from the children of men.
| اَلْجَفْنَةُ يَبِسَتْ، وَٱلتِّينَةُ ذَبُلَتْ. اَلرُّمَّانَةُ وَٱلنَّخْلَةُ وَٱلتُّفَّاحَةُ، كُلُّ أَشْجَارِ ٱلْحَقْلِ يَبِسَتْ. إِنَّهُ قَدْ يَبِسَتِ ٱلْبَهْجَةُ مِنْ بَنِي ٱلْبَشَرِ. | ١٢ |
13 Gird yourselves [with sackcloth], and lament, ye priests; wail, ye ministers of the altar: come, remain all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God; for there are withholden from the house of your God the meat-offering and the drink-offering.
| تَنَطَّقُوا وَنُوحُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْكَهَنَةُ. وَلْوِلُوا يَا خُدَّامَ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ. ٱدْخُلُوا بِيتُوا بِٱلْمُسُوحِ يَا خُدَّامَ إِلَهِي، لِأَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱمْتَنَعَ عَنْ بَيْتِ إِلَهِكُمُ ٱلتَّقْدِمَةُ وَٱلسَّكِيبُ. | ١٣ |
14 Sanctify ye a fast, proclaim a solemn assembly, gather the elders, all the inhabitants of the land, into the house of the Lord your God, and cry aloud unto the Lord.
| قَدِّسُوا صَوْمًا. نَادُوا بِٱعْتِكَافٍ. ٱجْمَعُوا ٱلشُّيُوخَ، جَمِيعَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ وَٱصْرُخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١٤ |
15 Alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is at hand, and like destruction from the Almighty will it come.
| آهِ عَلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ! لِأَنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ قَرِيبٌ. يَأْتِي كَخَرَابٍ مِنَ ٱلْقَادِرِ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ. | ١٥ |
16 Is not before our eyes the food cut off, from the house of our God joy and gladness?
| أَمَا ٱنْقَطَعَ ٱلطَّعَامُ تُجَاهَ عُيُونِنَا؟ ٱلْفَرَحُ وَٱلِٱبْتِهَاجُ عَنْ بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا؟ | ١٦ |
17 The grains of seed are rotten under their clods, laid desolate are the garners, pulled down are the barns; for the corn is dried up.
| عَفَّنَتِ ٱلْحُبُوبُ تَحْتَ مَدَرِهَا. خَلَتِ ٱلْأَهْرَاءُ. ٱنْهَدَمَتِ ٱلْمَخَازِنُ لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ يَبِسَ ٱلْقَمْحُ. | ١٧ |
18 How do the beasts groan! how do the herds of cattle roam about; because there is no pasture for them: yea, the flocks of sheep are made to perish.
| كَمْ تَئِنُّ ٱلْبَهَائِمُ! هَامَتْ قُطْعَانُ ٱلْبَقَرِ لِأَنْ لَيْسَ لَهَا مَرْعًى. حَتَّى قُطْعَانُ ٱلْغَنَمِ تَفْنَى. | ١٨ |
19 To thee O Lord, will I cry; for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath singed all the trees of the field.
| إِلَيْكَ يَارَبُّ أَصْرُخُ، لِأَنَّ نَارًا قَدْ أَكَلَتْ مَرَاعِيَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَلَهِيبًا أَحْرَقَ جَمِيعَ أَشْجَارِ ٱلْحَقْلِ. | ١٩ |
20 Also the beasts of the field cry unto thee panting; for the brooks of waters are dried up, and a fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
| حَتَّى بَهَائِمُ ٱلصَّحْرَاءِ تَنْظُرُ إِلَيْكَ، لِأَنَّ جَدَاوِلَ ٱلْمِيَاهِ قَدْ جَفَّتْ، وَٱلنَّارَ أَكَلَتْ مَرَاعِيَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٢٠ |
