< Numbers 16 >

1 Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, took Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, son of Reuben,
وَشَرَعَ قُورَحُ بْنُ يِصْهَارَ بْنِ قَهَاتَ بْنِ لاوِي، وَدَاثَانُ وَأَبِيرَامُ ابْنَا أَلِيَآبَ، وَأُونُ بْنُ فَالَتَ مِنْ سِبْطِ رَأُوبَيْنَ،١
2 and they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred fifty leaders of the congregation, called to the assembly, men of renown;
يَتَآمَرُونَ عَلَى مُوسَى، مَعَ مِئَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ مِنْ رُؤَسَاءِ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، ذَوِي الْمَكَانَةِ مِمَّنْ تَمَّ تَعْيِينُهُمْ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ.٢
3 and they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said to them, "You take too much on yourself, since all the congregation are holy, everyone of them, and the LORD is among them: why then lift yourselves up above the assembly of the LORD?"
هَؤُلاءِ تَأَلَّبُوا عَلَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ وَقَالُوا: «حَسْبُكُمَا! إِنَّ كُلَّ الْجَمَاعَةِ بِأَسْرِهَا مُقَدَّسَةٌ، وَفِي وَسَطِهَا الرَّبُّ. فَمَا بَالُكُمَا تَتَرَفَّعَانِ عَلَى جَمَاعَةِ الرَّبِّ؟»٣
4 When Moses heard it, he fell on his face:
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ مُوسَى هَذَا، أَكَبَّ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ،٤
5 and he spoke to Korah and to all his company, saying, "In the morning the LORD will show who are his, and who is holy, and will bring him near to him. The one whom he has chosen he will bring near to him.
ثُمَّ قَالَ لِقُورَحَ وَسَائِرِ جَمَاعَتِهِ: «غَداً يُعْلِنُ الرَّبُّ مَنْ هُوَ لَهُ، وَمَنْ هُوَ الْمُقَدَّسُ فَيُقَرِّبُهُ مِنْهُ.٥
6 Do this: take censers, Korah, and all his company;
وَلَكِنْ يَا قُورَحُ افْعَلْ هَذَا أَنْتَ وَجَمَاعَتُكَ: خُذُوا لَكُمْ مَجَامِرَ،٦
7 and put fire in them, and put incense on them before the LORD tomorrow: and it shall be that the man whom the LORD chooses, he shall be holy. You have gone too far, you sons of Levi."
وَضَعُوا فِيهَا نَاراً وَبَخُوراً أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ غَداً. وَالرَّجُلُ الَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ الرَّبُّ يَكُونُ هُوَ الْمُقَدَّسُ، فَحَسْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا اللّاوِيُّونَ!»٧
8 Moses said to Korah, "Hear now, you sons of Levi.
وَأَضَافَ مُوسَى قَائِلاً لِقُورَحَ: «اسْتَمِعُوا يَا بَنِي لاوِي،٨
9 Is it a small thing to you, that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself, to do the service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation to minister to them;
أَلَمْ يَكْفِكُمْ أَنَّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَدْ أَفْرَزَكُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الشَّعْبِ لِيُقَرِّبَكُمْ إِلَيْهِ لِكَيْ تَخْدِمُوا مَسْكَنَ الرَّبِّ وَتَقِفُوا فِي حَضْرَةِ الشَّعْبِ كُلِّهِ لِخِدْمَتِهِ.٩
10 and that he has brought you near, and all your brothers the sons of Levi with you? and do you seek the priesthood also?
فَقَرَّبَكَ مَعَ بَقِيَّةِ إِخْوَتِكَ مِنْ بَنِي لاوِي، حَتَّى صِرْتُمْ تَطْمَعُونَ فِي الْكَهَنُوتِ.١٠
11 Therefore you and all your company are gathered together against God. And Aaron, what is he that you murmur against him?"
إِذَنْ أَنْتَ وَكُلُّ جَمَاعَتِكَ قَدْ تَأَلَّبْتُمْ عَلَى الرَّبِّ، لأَنَّهُ مَنْ هُوَ هَرُونُ حَتَّى تَتَذَمَّرُوا عَلَيْهِ؟»١١
12 Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; and they said, "We won't come up:
فَأَرْسَلَ مُوسَى يَسْتَدْعِي دَاثَانَ وَأَبِيرَامَ ابْنَيْ أَلِيآبَ، فَرَدَّا: «لَنْ نَحْضُرَ!١٢
13 is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, but you must also make yourself a prince over us?
أَلَمْ يَكْفِكَ أَنَّكَ أَخْرَجْتَنَا مِنْ أَرْضٍ تُدِرُّ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً لِتُهْلِكَنَا فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ، ثُمَّ تَتَرَأَّسُ عَلَيْنَا؟١٣
14 Moreover you haven't brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: will you put out the eyes of these men? We won't come up."
فَأَنْتَ لَمْ تَقُدْنَا إِلَى أَرْضٍ تَفِيضُ خَيْرَاتٍ، وَلا أَوْرَثْتَنَا حُقُولاً وَكُرُوماً. فَمَنْ تُحَاوِلُ أَنْ تَخْدَعَ؟ إِنَّنَا لَنْ نَحْضُرَ!»١٤
15 Moses was very angry, and said to the LORD, "Do not respect their offering: I have not taken one donkey from them, neither have I hurt one of them."
فَاحْتَدَمَ غَيْظُ مُوسَى وَقَالَ لِلرَّبِّ: «لا تَقْبَلْ تَقْدِمَتَهُمَا، فَأَنَا لَمْ آخُذْ حَتَّى حِمَاراً وَاحِداً مِنْهُمَا، وَلَمْ أُسِئْ إِلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمَا».١٥
16 Moses said to Korah, "You and all your company go before the LORD, you, and they, and Aaron, tomorrow:
وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِقُورَحَ: «امْثُلْ أَنْتَ وَجَمَاعَتُكَ كُلُّهَا أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ غَداً، وَكَذَلِكَ يَحْضُرُ هَرُونُ أَيْضاً.١٦
17 and each man take his censer, and put incense on them, and each man bring before the LORD his censer, two hundred fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each his censer."
وَلْيَأْخُذْ كُلٌّ مِنْكُمْ مَجْمَرَتَهُ وَضَعُوا فِيهَا بَخُوراً، وَلْيُقَدِّمْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مَجْمَرَتَهُ، فَتَكُونَ مِئَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ مَجْمَرَةً، وَكَذَلِكَ خُذْ أَنْتَ وَهَرُونُ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مَجْمَرَتَهُ».١٧
18 They each took his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood at the door of the Tent of Meeting with Moses and Aaron.
فَجَاءَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ بِمَجْمَرَتِهِ وَوَضَعُوا فِيهَا نَاراً وَبَخُوراً، وَمَثَلُوا عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ مَعَ مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ.١٨
19 Korah assembled all the congregation against them to the door of the Tent of Meeting: and the glory of the LORD appeared to all the congregation.
وَحَشَدَ قُورَحُ عَلَيْهِمَا كُلَّ الْجَمَاعَةِ الْمُتَآمِرَةِ عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، فَتَرَاءَى آنَئِذٍ مَجْدُ الرَّبِّ لِلْجَمَاعَةِ كُلِّهَا.١٩
20 The LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى وَهَرُونَ:٢٠
21 "Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment."
«افْتَرِزَا مِنْ بَيْنِ هَذِهِ الْجَمَاعَةِ لأَنِّي سَأُفْنِيهِمْ فِي لَحْظَةٍ».٢١
22 They fell on their faces, and said, "God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will you be angry with all the congregation?"
فَانْطَرَحَا عَلَى وَجْهَيْهِمَا وَابْتَهَلا قَائِلَيْنِ: «اللهُمَّ، يَا إِلَهَ أَرْوَاحِ جَمِيعِ الْبَشَرِ، أَتَسْخَطُ عَلَى الْجَمَاعَةِ كُلِّهَا مِنْ أَجْلِ خَطِيئَةِ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ؟»٢٢
23 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى:٢٣
24 "Speak to the congregation, saying, 'Get away from around the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.'"
«اطْلُبْ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ أَنْ يَبْتَعِدُوا مِنْ حَوَالَيْ خِيَامِ قُورَحَ وَدَاثَانَ وَأَبِيرَامَ».٢٤
25 Moses rose up and went to Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
فَذَهَبَ مُوسَى إِلَى دَاثَانَ وَأَبِيرَامَ، وَتَبِعَهُ شُيُوخُ إِسْرَائِيلَ،٢٥
26 He spoke to the congregation, saying, "Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins."
وَقَالَ لِلْجَمَاعَةِ كُلِّهَا: «ابْتَعِدُوا عَنْ خِيَامِ هَؤُلاءِ الْقَوْمِ الأَشْرَارِ، وَلا تَلْمَسُوا شَيْئاً مِمَّا لَهُمْ لِئَلّا تَهْلِكُوا مِنَ جَرَّاءِ خَطَايَاهُمْ».٢٦
27 So they went away from the tent of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little ones.
فَابْتَعَدُوا مِنْ حَوَالَيْ خِيَامِ قُورَحَ وَدَاثَانَ وَأَبِيرَامَ، وَخَرَجَ دَاثَانُ وَأَبِيرَامُ، وَوَقَفَا أَمَامَ خَيْمَتَيْهِمَا مَعَ زَوْجَاتِهِمَا وَأَوْلادِهِمَا صِغَاراً وَكِبَاراً.٢٧
28 Moses said, "Hereby you shall know that the LORD has sent me to do all these works; for they are not from my own mind.
فَقَالَ مُوسَى: «بِهَذَا تَعْرِفُونَ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي لأُجْرِيَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ الأَعْمَالِ، وَأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ صَادِرَةً عَنْ نَفْسِي:٢٨
29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then the LORD hasn't sent me.
إِنْ مَاتَ هَؤُلاءِ مَوْتاً طَبِيعِيًّا، أَوِ ابْتُلُوا بِمَا يُبْتَلَى بِهِ النَّاسُ عَادَةً، فَلا يَكُونُ الرَّبُّ قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي.٢٩
30 But if the LORD make a new thing, and the ground open its mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain to them, and they go down alive into Sheol; then you shall understand that these men have despised the LORD." (Sheol h7585)
وَلَكِنْ إِنْ أَجْرَى الرَّبُّ أَمْراً جَدِيداً، وَانْشَقَّتِ الأَرْضُ وَابْتَلَعَتْهُمْ مَعَ كُلِّ مَالَهُمْ، وَدُفِنُوا فِي بَاطِنِ الأَرْضِ أَحْيَاءَ، عِنْدَئِذٍ تُدْرِكُونَ أَنَّ هَؤُلاءِ الْقَوْمَ قَدِ ازْدَرَوْا بِالرَّبِّ». (Sheol h7585)٣٠
31 It happened, as he made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground split apart that was under them;
وَحَالَمَا انْتَهَى مِنْ كَلامِهِ انْشَقَّتِ الأَرْضُ تَحْتَهُمْ،٣١
32 and the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men who appertained to Korah, and all their goods.
وَفَتَحَتْ فَاهَا وَابْتَلَعَتْهُمْ مَعَ بُيُوتِهِمْ، كَمَا ابْتَلَعَتْ رِجَالَ قُورَحَ مَعَ كُلِّ مَا يَمْلِكُونَ.٣٢
33 So they, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into Sheol: and the earth closed on them, and they perished from among the assembly. (Sheol h7585)
فَاخْتَفَوْا هُمْ وَكُلُّ مَا يَمْلِكُونَ أَحْيَاءَ فِي بَاطِنِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي انْطَبَقَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَبَادُوا مِنْ بَيْنِ الْجَمَاعَةِ. (Sheol h7585)٣٣
34 All Israel that were around them fled at their cry; for they said, "Lest the earth swallow us up."
وَهَرَبَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ الَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُمْ مِنْ صَوْتِ صَرَخَاتِهِمْ قَائِلِينَ: «لِئَلّا تَبْتَلِعَنَا الأَرْضُ».٣٤
35 Fire came forth from the LORD, and devoured the two hundred fifty men who offered the incense.
وَانْدَلَعَتْ نَارٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ فَالْتَهَمَتِ الْمِئَتَيْنِ وَالْخَمْسِينَ رَجُلاً الَّذِينَ قَرَّبُوا الْبَخُورَ.٣٥
36 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى:٣٦
37 "Speak to Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter the fire yonder; for they are holy,
«اطْلُبْ مِنْ أَلِعَازَارَ بْنِ هَرُونَ الْكَاهِنِ أَنْ يَجْمَعَ الْمَجَامِرَ مِنَ الْحَرِيقِ، وَلْيَذْرِ مَا فِيهَا مِنْ جَمْرٍ فَإِنَّهَا قَدْ تَقَدَّسَتْ.٣٧
38 even the censers of these sinners against their own lives; and let them be made beaten plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD; therefore they are holy; and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel."
وَاطْرُقُوا مَجَامِرَ هَؤُلاءِ الَّذِينَ أَخْطَأُوا فِي حَقِّ نُفُوسِهِمْ صَفَائِحَ، لِتَكُونَ غِشَاءً لِلْمَذْبَحِ، لأَنَّهُمْ قَدَّمُوهَا فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ فَتَقَدَّسَتْ، فَتَكُونُ عِبْرَةً لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ».٣٨
39 Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers, which those who were burnt had offered; and they beat them out for a covering of the altar,
فَجَمَعَ أَلِعَازَارُ الْكَاهِنُ مَجَامِرَ النُّحَاسِ الَّتِي قَرَّبَهَا الْمُحْتَرِقُونَ، فَطُرِقَتْ غِشَاءً لِلْمَذْبَحِ،٣٩
40 to be a memorial to the children of Israel, to the end that no stranger, who isn't of the descendants of Aaron, comes near to burn incense before the LORD; that he not be as Korah, and as his company: as the LORD spoke to him by Moses.
عِبْرَةً لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لِكَيْ لَا يَدْنُوَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ غَيْرِ نَسْلِ هَرُونَ لِيُبَخِّرَ فِي حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ، فَيُصِيبَهُ مَا أَصَابَ قُورَحَ وَجَمَاعَتَهُ، كَمَا كَلَّمَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى.٤٠
41 But on the next day all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, "You have killed the LORD's people."
وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّانِي تَذَمَّرَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ قَائِلِينَ: «لَقَدْ قَتَلْتُمَا شَعْبَ الرَّبِّ».٤١
42 It happened, when the congregation was assembled against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the Tent of Meeting: and look, the cloud covered it, and the glory of the LORD appeared.
فَلَمَّا اجْتَمَعَتِ الْجَمَاعَةُ عَلَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ مَضَيَا إِلَى خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ، وَإذَا بِالسَّحَابَةِ قَدْ غَطَّتْهَا وَمَجْدُ الرَّبِّ قَدْ تَرَاءَى.٤٢
43 Moses and Aaron came to the front of the Tent of Meeting.
فَأَقْبَلَ مُوسَى وَهَرُونُ إِلَى أَمَامِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ.٤٣
44 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى:٤٤
45 "Get away from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment." They fell on their faces.
«اخْرُجَا مِنْ بَيْنِ هَذِهِ الْجَمَاعَةِ لأَنَّنِي سَأُفْنِيهِمْ فِي لَحْظَةٍ». فَخَرَّا عَلَى وَجْهَيْهِمَا٤٥
46 Moses said to Aaron, "Take your censer, and put fire from off the altar in it, and lay incense on it, and carry it quickly to the congregation, and make atonement for them; for wrath has gone out from the LORD. The plague has begun."
ثُمَّ قَالَ مُوسَى لِهَرُونَ: «خُذِ الْمَجْمَرَةَ وَضَعْ فِيهَا نَاراً مِنْ عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ، وَأَيْضاً بَخُوراً، وَأَسْرِعْ إِلَى الْجَمَاعَةِ لِتُكَفِّرَ عَنْهُمْ، لأَنَّ الْغَضَبَ الْمُحْتَدِمَ قَدْ صَدَرَ عَنِ الرَّبِّ وَتَفَشَّى فِيهِمِ الْوَبَأُ».٤٦
47 Aaron did as Moses said, and ran into the midst of the assembly; and look, the plague has begun among the people: and he put on the incense, and made atonement for the people.
فَنَفَّذَ هَرُونُ أَمْرَ مُوسَى، وَأَسْرَعَ إِلَى وَسَطِ الْجَمَاعَةِ، وَإذَا بِالْوَبَأِ قَدِ ابْتَدَأَ يَتَفَشَّى فِيهِمْ، فَوَضَعَ الْبَخُورَ وَكَفَّرَ عَنِ الشَّعْبِ.٤٧
48 He stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
وَوَقَفَ هَرُونُ بَيْنَ الْمَوْتَى وَالأَحْيَاءِ، فَتَوَقَّفَ الوَبَأُ.٤٨
49 Now those who died by the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, besides those who died about the matter of Korah.
فَكَانَ الَّذِينَ هَلَكُوا بِالْوَبَإِ أَرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ أَلْفاً وَسَبْعَ مِئَةٍ، عَدَا الَّذِينَ مَاتُوا بِسَبَبِ قُورَحَ.٤٩
50 Aaron returned to Moses to the door of the Tent of Meeting: and the plague was stayed.
ثُمَّ رَجَعَ هَرُونُ إِلَى مُوسَى عِنْدَ مَدْخَلِ خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَقَدْ تَوَقَّفَ سَرَيَانُ الْوَبَإِ.٥٠
