< Jeremiah 24 >

1 Jehovah showed me, and look, two baskets of figs set before Jehovah's temple, after that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the officials of Judah, with the craftsmen and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.
أَرَانِي ٱلرَّبُّ وَإِذَا سَلَّتَا تِينٍ مَوْضُوعَتَانِ أَمَامَ هَيْكَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ بَعْدَ مَا سَبَى نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ يَكُنْيَا بْنَ يَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا وَرُؤَسَاءَ يَهُوذَا وَٱلنَّجَّارِينَ وَٱلْحَدَّادِينَ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَأَتَى بِهِمْ إِلَى بَابِلَ.١
2 One basket had very good figs, like the figs that are first-ripe; and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.
فِي ٱلسَّلَّةِ ٱلْوَاحِدَةِ تِينٌ جَيِّدٌ جِدًّا مِثْلُ ٱلتِّينِ ٱلْبَاكُورِيِّ، وَفِي ٱلسَّلَّةِ ٱلْأُخْرَى تِينٌ رَدِيءٌ جِدًّا لَا يُؤْكَلُ مِنْ رَدَاءَتِهِ.٢
3 Then Jehovah said to me, "What do you see, Jeremiah?" I said, "Figs; the good figs, very good; and the bad, very bad, that can't be eaten, they are so bad."
فَقَالَ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ: «مَاذَا أَنْتَ رَاءٍ يَا إِرْمِيَا؟» فَقُلْتُ: «تِينًا. اَلتِّينُ ٱلْجَيِّدُ جَيِّدٌ جِدًّا، وَٱلتِّينُ ٱلرَّدِيءُ رَدِيءٌ جِدًّا لَا يُؤْكَلُ مِنْ رَدَاءَتِهِ».٣
4 The word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
ثُمَّ صَارَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَيَّ قَائِلًا:٤
5 "Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: 'Like these good figs, so will I regard the captives of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans, for good.
«هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: كَهَذَا ٱلتِّينِ ٱلْجَيِّدِ هَكَذَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى سَبْيِ يَهُوذَا ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلْتُهُ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ لِلْخَيْرِ.٥
6 For I will set my eyes on them for good, and I will bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
وَأَجْعَلُ عَيْنَيَّ عَلَيْهِمْ لِلْخَيْرِ، وَأُرْجِعُهُمْ إِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَأَبْنِيهِمْ وَلَا أَهْدِمُهُمْ، وَأَغْرِسُهُمْ وَلَا أَقْلَعُهُمْ.٦
7 I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Jehovah: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God; for they shall return to me with their whole heart.'
وَأُعْطِيهِمْ قَلْبًا لِيَعْرِفُونِي أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ، فَيَكُونُوا لِي شَعْبًا وَأَنَا أَكُونُ لَهُمْ إِلَهًا، لِأَنَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ إِلَيَّ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِهِمْ.٧
8 As the bad figs, which can't be eaten, they are so bad, surely thus says Jehovah, 'So will I give up Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his officials, and the remnant of Jerusalem, who remain in this land, and those who dwell in the land of Egypt,
«وَكَٱلتِّينِ ٱلرَّدِيءِ ٱلَّذِي لَا يُؤْكَلُ مِنْ رَدَاءَتِهِ، هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ، هَكَذَا أَجْعَلُ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا وَرُؤَسَاءَهُ وَبَقِيَّةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلْبَاقِيَةَ فِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلسَّاكِنَةَ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.٨
9 I will make them a horror, an evil thing, to all the kingdoms of the earth, as a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places where I shall drive them.
وَأُسَلِّمُهُمْ لِلْقَلَقِ وَٱلشَّرِّ فِي جَمِيعِ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ عَارًا وَمَثَلًا وَهُزْأَةً وَلَعْنَةً فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلْمَوَاضِعِ ٱلَّتِي أَطْرُدُهُمْ إِلَيْهَا.٩
10 I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, until they be consumed from off the land that I gave to them and to their fathers.'"
وَأُرْسِلُ عَلَيْهِمِ ٱلسَّيْفَ وَٱلْجُوعَ وَٱلْوَبَأَ حَتَّى يَفْنَوْا عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ وَآبَاءَهُمْ إِيَّاهَا».١٠
