< 2 Chronicles 16 >

1 In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلسَّادِسَةِ وَٱلثَّلَاثِينَ لِمُلْكِ آسَا صَعِدَ بَعْشَا مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى يَهُوذَا، وَبَنَى ٱلرَّامَةَ لِكَيْلَا يَدَعَ أَحَدًا يَخْرُجُ أَوْ يَدْخُلُ إِلَى آسَا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا.١
2 Then Asa brought silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king's house, and sent to Ben-hadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,
وَأَخْرَجَ آسَا فِضَّةً وَذَهَبًا مِنْ خَزَائِنِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَبَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى بَنْهَدَدَ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ ٱلسَّاكِنِ فِي دِمَشْقَ قَائِلًا:٢
3 [There is] a league between me and thee, as [there was] between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent thee silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
«إِنَّ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ، وَبَيْنَ أَبِي وَأَبِيكَ عَهْدًا. هُوَذَا قَدْ أَرْسَلْتُ لَكَ فِضَّةً وَذَهَبًا، فَتَعَالَ ٱنْقُضْ عَهْدَكَ مَعَ بَعْشَا مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَيَصْعَدَ عَنِّي».٣
4 And Ben-hadad hearkened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.
فَسَمِعَ بَنْهَدَدُ لِلْمَلِكِ آسَا، وَأَرْسَلَ رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْجُيُوشِ ٱلَّتِي لَهُ عَلَى مُدُنِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَضَرَبُوا عُيُونَ وَدَانَ وَآبَلَ ٱلْمِيَاهِ وَجَمِيعَ مَخَازِنِ مُدُنِ نَفْتَالِي.٤
5 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard [it], that he left off the building of Ramah, and let his work cease.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ بَعْشَا كَفَّ عَنْ بِنَاءِ ٱلرَّامَةِ وَتَرَكَ عَمَلَهُ.٥
6 Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber of it, with which Baasha was building, and he built with it Geba and Mizpah.
فَأَخَذَ آسَا ٱلْمَلِكُ كُلَّ يَهُوذَا، فَحَمَلُوا حِجَارَةَ ٱلرَّامَةِ وَأَخْشَابَهَا ٱلَّتِي بَنَى بِهَا بَعْشَا، وَبَنَى بِهَا جَبْعَ وَٱلْمِصْفَاةَ.٦
7 And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria, and not relied on the LORD thy God, therefore hath the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thy hand.
وَفِي ذَلِكَ ٱلزَّمَانِ جَاءَ حَنَانِي ٱلرَّائِي إِلَى آسَا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا وَقَالَ لَهُ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ ٱسْتَنَدْتَ عَلَى مَلِكِ أَرَامَ وَلَمْ تَسْتَنِدْ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، لِذَلِكَ قَدْ نَجَا جَيْشُ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ مِنْ يَدِكَ.٧
8 Were not the Cushites and the Lubims a numerous army, with very many chariots and horsemen? yet, because thou didst rely on the LORD, he delivered them into thy hand.
أَلَمْ يَكُنِ ٱلْكُوشِيُّونَ وَٱللُّوبِيُّونَ جَيْشًا كَثِيرًا بِمَرْكَبَاتٍ وَفُرْسَانٍ كَثِيرَةٍ جِدًّا؟ فَمِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ ٱسْتَنَدْتَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ دَفَعَهُمْ لِيَدِكَ.٨
9 For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of [them] whose heart [is] perfect towards him. In this thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
لِأَنَّ عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ تَجُولَانِ فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ لِيَتَشَدَّدَ مَعَ ٱلَّذِينَ قُلُوبُهُمْ كَامِلَةٌ نَحْوَهُ، فَقَدْ حَمِقْتَ فِي هَذَا حَتَّى إِنَّهُ مِنَ ٱلْآنَ تَكُونُ عَلَيْكَ حُرُوبٌ.٩
10 Then Asa was wroth with the seer, and put him in a prison house; for [he was] in a rage with him because of this [thing]. And Asa oppressed [some] of the people the same time.
فَغَضِبَ آسَا عَلَى ٱلرَّائِي وَوَضَعَهُ فِي ٱلسِّجْنِ، لِأَنَّهُ ٱغْتَاظَ مِنْهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا، وَضَايَقَ آسَا بَعْضًا مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ.١٠
11 And behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, lo, they [are] written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
وَأُمُورُ آسَا ٱلْأُولَى وَٱلْأَخِيرَةُ، هَاهِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ لِيَهُوذَا وَإِسْرَائِيلَ.١١
12 And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease [was] exceedingly [severe]: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.
وَمَرِضَ آسَا فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلتَّاسِعَةِ وَٱلثَّلَاثِينَ مِنْ مُلْكِهِ فِي رِجْلَيْهِ حَتَّى ٱشْتَدَّ مَرَضُهُ، وَفِي مَرَضِهِ أَيْضًا لَمْ يَطْلُبِ ٱلرَّبَّ بَلِ ٱلْأَطِبَّاءَ.١٢
13 And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.
ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ آسَا مَعَ آبَائِهِ وَمَاتَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْحَادِيَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعِينَ لِمُلْكِهِ،١٣
14 And they buried him in his own sepulchers which he had made for himself in the city of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odors and divers kinds [of spices] prepared by the apothecaries' art: and they made a very great burning for him.
فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي قُبُورِهِ ٱلَّتِي حَفَرَهَا لِنَفْسِهِ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، وَأَضْجَعُوهُ فِي سَرِيرٍ كَانَ مَمْلُوًّا أَطْيَابًا وَأَصْنَافًا عَطِرَةً حَسَبَ صِنَاعَةِ ٱلْعِطَارَةِ. وَأَحْرَقُوا لَهُ حَرِيقَةً عَظِيمَةً جِدًّا.١٤
