Joel 1
1 The word of the LORD that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.
| هَذَا مَا أَوْحَى بِهِ الرَّبُّ إِلَى يُوئِيلَ بْنِ فَثُوئِيلَ: | ١ |
2 Hear this, ye old men, and give ear, all ye inhabitants of the land. Hath this been in your days, or in the days of your fathers?
| اسْمَعُوا هَذَا أَيُّهَا الشُّيُوخُ، وَأَصْغُوا يَا جَمِيعَ أَهْلِ الأَرْضِ، هَلْ جَرَى مِثْلُ هَذَا فِي أَيَّامِكُمْ أَوْ فِي أَيَّامِ آبَائِكُمْ؟ | ٢ |
3 Tell ye your children of it, and [let] your children [tell] their children, and their children another generation.
| أَخْبِرُوا بِهَذَا أَبْنَاءَكُمْ، وَلْيُخْبِرْ أَبْنَاؤُكُمْ أَبْنَاءَهُمْ لِيَنْقُلُوهُ إِلَى الأَجْيَالِ الْقَادِمَةِ. | ٣ |
4 That which the palmerworm hath left hath the locust eaten; and that which the locust hath left hath the cankerworm eaten; and that which the cankerworm hath left hath the caterpiller eaten.
| إِنَّ مَا تَخَلَّفَ مِنْ مَحْصُولِكُمْ عَنْ هَجَمَاتِ الزَّحَّافِ الْتَهَمَتْهُ أَسْرَابُ الْجَرَادِ، وَمَا تَفَضَّلَ عَنْ أَسْرَابِ الْجَرَادِ أَكَلَتْهُ الْجَنَادِبُ؛ وَمَا بَقِيَ عَنِ الْجَنَادِبِ قَضَى عَلَيْهِ الطَّيَّارُ. | ٤ |
5 Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the sweet wine; for it is cut off from your mouth.
| اصْحُوا أَيُّهَا السَّكَارَى، وَابْكُوا يَا جَمِيعَ مُدْمِنِي الْخَمْرِ عَلَى الْعَصِيرِ لأَنَّهُ قَدِ انْقَطَعَ عَنْ أَفْوَاهِكُمْ. | ٥ |
6 For a nation is come up upon my land, strong, and without number; his teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he hath the jaw teeth of a great lion.
| فَإِنَّ أُمَّةً قَدْ زَحَفَتْ عَلَى أَرْضِي، أُمَّةً قَوِيَّةً لَا تُحْصَى لِكَثْرَتِهَا. لَهَا أَسْنَانُ لَيْثٍ وَأَنْيَابُ لَبُوءَةٍ، | ٦ |
7 He hath laid my vine waste, and barked my fig tree: he hath made it clean bare, and cast it away; the branches thereof are made white.
| فَأَتْلَفَتْ كُرُومِي وَحَطَّمَتْ أَشْجَارَ بَيْتِي وَسَلَخَتْ قُشُورَهَا وَطَرَحَتْهَا، فَابْيَضَّتْ أَغْصَانُهَا. | ٧ |
8 Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.
| نُوحُوا كَمَا تَنُوحُ صَبِيَّةٌ مُتَّشِحَةٌ بِالْمُسُوحِ عَلَى زَوْجِهَا الَّذِي مَاتَ. | ٨ |
9 The meal offering and the drink offering is cut off from the house of the LORD; the priests, the LORD’S ministers, mourn.
| لأَنَّ تَقْدِمَاتِ الدَّقِيقِ وَالْخَمْرِ قَدِ انْقَطَعَتْ عَنْ بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، وَانْتَحَبَ الْكَهَنَةُ خُدَّامُ الرَّبِّ. | ٩ |
10 The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted, the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth.
| قَدْ خَرِبَتِ الْحُقُولُ، وَنَاحَتِ الأَرْضُ لأَنَّ الْحِنْطَةَ تَلِفَتْ وَالْخَمْرَةَ انْقَطَعَتْ، وَافْتُقِدَ زَيْتُ الزَّيْتُونِ. | ١٠ |
11 Be ashamed, O ye husbandmen, howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; for the harvest of the field is perished.
| اخْزَوْا أَيُّهَا الْحَرَّاثُونَ وَوَلْوِلُوا أَيُّهَا الْكَرَّامُونَ عَلَى الْقَمْحِ وَالشَّعِيرِ، لأَنَّ حَصَادَ الْحَقْلِ قَدْ تَلِفَ. | ١١ |
12 The vine is withered, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field are withered: for joy is withered away from the sons of men.
| قَدْ ذَوَى الْكَرْمُ وَذَبُلَ التِّينُ وَالرُّمَّانُ وَالنَّخِيلُ وَالتُّفَّاحُ وَيَبِسَتْ سَائِرُ أَشْجَارِ الْحَقْلِ، وَزَالَتِ الْبَهْجَةُ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ الْبَشَرِ. | ١٢ |
13 Gird yourselves [with sackcloth], and lament, ye priests; howl, ye ministers of the altar; come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meal offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.
| أَيُّهَا الْكَهَنَةُ اتَّشِحُوا بِالْمُسُوحِ وَنُوحُوا. وَلْوِلُوا يَا خُدَّامَ الْمَذْبَحِ. تَعَالَوْا وَبِيتُوا لَيْلَتَكُمْ بِالْمُسُوحِ يَا خُدَّامَ إِلَهِي، لأَنَّ تَقْدِمَاتِ الدَّقِيقِ وَالْخَمْرِ قَدْ مُنِعَتْ عَنْ هَيْكَلِ اللهِ. | ١٣ |
14 Sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the old men [and] all the inhabitants of the land unto the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD.
| خَصِّصُوا صَوْماً. نَادُوا بِالاعْتِكَافِ. ادْعُوا الشُّيُوخَ وَجَمِيعَ سُكَّانِ الأَرْضِ لِلاجْتِمَاعِ فِي هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ وَتَضَرَّعُوا إِلَيْهِ. | ١٤ |
15 Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as destruction from the Almighty shall it come,
| يَا لَهُ مِنْ يَوْمٍ رَهِيبٍ، لأَنَّ يَوْمَ الرَّبِّ قَرِيبٌ يَأْتِي حَامِلاً مَعَهُ الدَّمَارَ مِنْ عِنْدِ الْقَدِيرِ. | ١٥ |
16 Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, [yea], joy and gladness from the house of our God?
| أَلَمْ يَنْقَطِعِ الطَّعَامُ أَمَامَ عُيُونِنَا، أَلَمْ يَتَلاشَ الْفَرَحُ وَالْغِبْطَةُ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِلَهِنَا؟ | ١٦ |
17 The seeds rot under their clods; the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down; for the corn is withered.
| قَدْ تَعَفَّنَتِ الْحُبُوبُ الْمَزْرُوعَةُ فِي الأَرْضِ الْجَافَّةِ، وَتَهَدَّمَتِ الْمَخَازِنُ وَفَرِغَتِ الصَّوَامِعُ مِنَ الْقَمْحِ، لأَنَّ الْحُبُوبَ قَدْ جَفَّتْ. | ١٧ |
18 How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.
| لَكَمْ أَنَّتِ الْبَهَائِمُ، وَشَرَدَتِ الْمَوَاشِي إِذِ افْتَقَرَتْ إِلَى الْمَرْعَى. حَتَّى قُطْعَانُ الْغَنَمِ هَلَكَتْ أَيْضاً. | ١٨ |
19 O LORD, to thee do I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field.
| إِلَيْكَ يَا رَبُّ أَصْرُخُ لأَنَّ النَّارَ قَدِ الْتَهَمَتْ مَرَاعِيَ الْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَأَحْرَقَ اللَّهِيبُ كُلَّ أَشْجَارِ الْحَقْلِ. | ١٩ |
20 Yea, the beasts of the field pant unto thee: for the water brooks are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
| حَتَّى الْحَيَوَانَاتُ الْبَرِّيَّةُ اسْتَغَاثَتْ بِكَ، لأَنَّ مِيَاهَ الْجَدَاوِلِ الْجَارِيَةَ قَدْ جَفَّتْ، وَالْتَهَمَتِ النِّيرَانُ مَرَاعِيَ الْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٢٠ |
