Deuteronomy 7

1 When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perrizites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou;

١ «مَتَى أَتَى بِكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا لِتَمْتَلِكَهَا، وَطَرَدَ شُعُوبًا كَثِيرَةً مِنْ أَمَامِكَ: ٱلْحِثِّيِّينَ وَٱلْجِرْجَاشِيِّينَ وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ وَٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْفِرِزِّيِّينَ وَٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيِّينَ، سَبْعَ شُعُوبٍ أَكْثَرَ وَأَعْظَمَ مِنْكَ،

2 And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee, thou shalt smite them [and] utterly destroy them, thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them:

٢ وَدَفَعَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ أَمَامَكَ، وَضَرَبْتَهُمْ، فَإِنَّكَ تُحَرِّمُهُمْ. لَا تَقْطَعْ لَهُمْ عَهْدًا، وَلَا تُشْفِقْ عَلَيْهِمْ،

3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give to his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take to thy son.

٣ وَلَا تُصَاهِرْهُمْ. بِنْتَكَ لَا تُعْطِ لِٱبْنِهِ، وَبِنْتَهُ لَا تَأْخُذْ لِٱبْنِكَ.

4 For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly.

٤ لِأَنَّهُ يَرُدُّ ٱبْنَكَ مِنْ وَرَائِي فَيَعْبُدُ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، فَيَحْمَى غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْكُمْ وَيُهْلِكُكُمْ سَرِيعًا.

5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.

٥ وَلَكِنْ هَكَذَا تَفْعَلُونَ بِهِمْ: تَهْدِمُونَ مَذَابِحَهُمْ، وَتُكَسِّرُونَ أَنْصَابَهُمْ، وَتُقَطِّعُونَ سَوَارِيَهُمْ، وَتُحْرِقُونَ تَمَاثِيلَهُمْ بِٱلنَّارِ.

6 For thou [art] a holy people to the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people to himself, above all people that [are] upon the face of the earth.

٦ لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ شَعْبٌ مُقَدَّسٌ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. إِيَّاكَ قَدِ ٱخْتَارَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِتَكُونَ لَهُ شَعْبًا أَخَصَّ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ،

7 The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye [were] the fewest of all people:

٧ لَيْسَ مِنْ كَوْنِكُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ سَائِرِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، ٱلْتَصَقَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِكُمْ وَٱخْتَارَكُمْ، لِأَنَّكُمْ أَقَلُّ مِنْ سَائِرِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ.

8 But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn to your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bond-men, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

٨ بَلْ مِنْ مَحَبَّةِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِيَّاكُمْ، وَحِفْظِهِ ٱلْقَسَمَ ٱلَّذِي أَقْسَمَ لِآبَائِكُمْ، أَخْرَجَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ بِيَدٍ شَدِيدَةٍ وَفَدَاكُمْ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ مِنْ يَدِ فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ.

9 Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he [is] God, the faithful God, who keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations:

٩ فَٱعْلَمْ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ هُوَ ٱللهُ، ٱلْإِلَهُ ٱلْأَمِينُ، ٱلْحَافِظُ ٱلْعَهْدَ وَٱلْإِحْسَانَ لِلَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَهُ وَيَحْفَظُونَ وَصَايَاهُ إِلَى أَلْفِ جِيلٍ،

10 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.

١٠ وَٱلْمُجَازِي ٱلَّذِينَ يُبْغِضُونَهُ بِوُجُوهِهِمْ لِيُهْلِكَهُمْ. لَا يُمْهِلُ مَنْ يُبْغِضُهُ. بِوَجْهِهِ يُجَازِيهِ.

11 Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them.

١١ فَٱحْفَظِ ٱلْوَصَايَا وَٱلْفَرَائِضَ وَٱلْأَحْكَامَ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ لِتَعْمَلَهَا.

12 Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy God will keep to thee the covenant and the mercy which he swore to thy fathers:

١٢ «وَمِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ تَسْمَعُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَحْكَامَ وَتَحْفَظُونَ وَتَعْمَلُونَهَا، يَحْفَظُ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ ٱلْعَهْدَ وَٱلْإِحْسَانَ ٱللَّذَيْنِ أَقْسَمَ لِآبَائِكَ،

13 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless thy children, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thy oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he swore to thy fathers to give thee.

١٣ وَيُحِبُّكَ وَيُبَارِكُكَ وَيُكَثِّرُكَ وَيُبَارِكُ ثَمَرَةَ بَطْنِكَ وَثَمَرَةَ أَرْضِكَ: قَمْحَكَ وَخَمْرَكَ وَزَيْتَكَ وَنِتَاجَ بَقَرِكَ وَإِنَاثَ غَنَمِكَ، عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَقْسَمَ لِآبَائِكَ أَنَّهُ يُعْطِيكَ إِيَّاهَا.

14 Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle.

١٤ مُبَارَكًا تَكُونُ فَوْقَ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. لَا يَكُونُ عَقِيمٌ وَلَا عَاقِرٌ فِيكَ وَلَا فِي بَهَائِمِكَ.

15 And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt (which thou knowest) upon thee; but will lay them upon all [them] that hate thee.

١٥ وَيَرُدُّ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْكَ كُلَّ مَرَضٍ، وَكُلَّ أَدْوَاءِ مِصْرَ ٱلرَّدِيئَةِ ٱلَّتِي عَرَفْتَهَا لَا يَضَعُهَا عَلَيْكَ، بَلْ يَجْعَلُهَا عَلَى كُلِّ مُبْغِضِيكَ.

16 And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God shall deliver to thee; thy eye shall have no pity upon them: neither shalt thou serve their gods; for that [will be] a snare to thee.

١٦ وَتَأْكُلُ كُلَّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ يَدْفَعُ إِلَيْكَ. لَا تُشْفِقْ عَيْنَاكَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا تَعْبُدْ آلِهَتَهُمْ، لِأَنَّ ذَلِكَ شَرَكٌ لَكَ.

17 If thou shalt say in thy heart, These nations [are] more than I, how can I dispossess them?

١٧ إِنْ قُلْتَ فِي قَلْبِكَ: هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلشُّعُوبُ أَكْثَرُ مِنِّي. كَيْفَ أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَطْرُدَهُمْ؟

18 Thou shalt not be afraid of them: [but] shalt well remember what the LORD thy God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt;

١٨ فَلَا تَخَفْ مِنْهُمُ. ٱذْكُرْ مَا فَعَلَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ بِفِرْعَوْنَ وَبِجَمِيعِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ.

19 The great temptations which thy eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the out-stretched arm, by which the LORD thy God brought thee out: so shall the LORD thy God do to all the people of whom thou art afraid.

١٩ ٱلتَّجَارِبَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَبْصَرَتْهَا عَيْنَاكَ، وَٱلْآيَاتِ وَٱلْعَجَائِبَ وَٱلْيَدَ ٱلشَّدِيدَةَ وَٱلذِّرَاعَ ٱلرَّفِيعَةَ ٱلَّتِي بِهَا أَخْرَجَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. هَكَذَا يَفْعَلُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ بِجَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ خَائِفٌ مِنْ وَجْهِهَا.

20 Moreover, the LORD thy God will send the hornet among them, until they that are left, and hide themselves from thee, shall be destroyed.

٢٠ «وَٱلزَّنَابِيرُ أَيْضًا يُرْسِلُهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَتَّى يَفْنَى ٱلْبَاقُونَ وَٱلْمُخْتَفُونَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ.

21 Thou shalt not be affrighted at them: for the LORD thy God [is] among you, a mighty God and terrible.

٢١ لَا تَرْهَبْ وُجُوهَهُمْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ فِي وَسَطِكَ إِلَهٌ عَظِيمٌ وَمَخُوفٌ.

22 And the LORD thy God will drive out those nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee.

٢٢ وَلَكِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ يَطْرُدُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلشُّعُوبَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ قَلِيلًا قَلِيلًا. لَا تَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ تُفْنِيَهُمْ سَرِيعًا، لِئَلَّا تَكْثُرَ عَلَيْكَ وُحُوشُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ.

23 But the LORD thy God shall deliver them to thee, and shall destroy them with a mighty destruction, until they are destroyed.

٢٣ وَيَدْفَعُهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ أَمَامَكَ وَيُوقِعُ بِهِمِ ٱضْطِرَابًا عَظِيمًا حَتَّى يَفْنَوْا.

24 And he shall deliver their kings into thy hand, and thou shalt destroy their name from under heaven: there shall no man be able to stand before thee, until thou shalt have destroyed them.

٢٤ وَيَدْفَعُ مُلُوكَهُمْ إِلَى يَدِكَ، فَتَمْحُو ٱسْمَهُمْ مِنْ تَحْتِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. لَا يَقِفُ إِنْسَانٌ فِي وَجْهِكَ حَتَّى تُفْنِيَهُمْ.

25 The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or gold [that is] on them, nor take [it] to thee, lest thou shouldst be snared in it: for it [is] an abomination to the LORD thy God.

٢٥ وَتَمَاثِيلَ آلِهَتِهِمْ تُحْرِقُونَ بِٱلنَّارِ. لَا تَشْتَهِ فِضَّةً وَلَا ذَهَبًا مِمَّا عَلَيْهَا لِتَأْخُذَ لَكَ، لِئَلَّا تُصَادَ بِهِ لِأَنَّهُ رِجْسٌ عِنْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ.

26 Neither shalt thou bring an abomination into thy house, lest thou shouldst be a cursed thing like it: [but] thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it [is] a cursed thing.

٢٦ وَلَا تُدْخِلْ رِجْسًا إِلَى بَيْتِكَ لِئَلَّا تَكُونَ مُحَرَّمًا مِثْلَهُ. تَسْتَقْبِحُهُ وَتَكْرَهُهُ لِأَنَّهُ مُحَرَّمٌ.
