Exodus 32
1 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mount, the people assembled themselves to Aaron, and said to him, Arise, make us gods which shall go before us: for [as for] this Moses, the man that brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.
| وَلَمَّا رَأَى الشَّعْبُ أَنَّ مُوسَى قَدْ طَالَتْ إقَامَتُهُ عَلَى الْجَبَلِ، اجْتَمَعُوا حَوْلَ هَرُونَ، وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «هَيَّا، اصْنَعْ لَنَا إِلَهاً يَتَقَدَّمُنَا فِي مَسِيرِنَا، لأَنَّنَا لَا نَدْرِي مَاذَا أَصَابَ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ مُوسَى الَّذِي أَخْرَجَنَا مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ». | ١ |
2 And Aaron said to them, Break off the golden ear-rings which [are] in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring [them] to me.
| فَأَجَابَهُمْ هَرُونُ: «انْزِعُوا أَقْرَاطَ الذَّهَبِ الَّتِي فِي آذَانِ نِسَائِكُمْ وَبَنَاتِكُمْ وَبَنِيكُمْ، وَأَعْطُونِي إِيَّاهَا». | ٢ |
3 And all the people broke off the golden ear-rings which [were] in their ears, and brought [them] to Aaron.
| فَنَزَعُوهَا مِنْ آذَانِهِمْ، وَجَاءُوا بِها إِلَيْهِ. | ٣ |
4 And he received [them] at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
| فَأَخَذَهَا مِنْهُمْ وَصَهَرَهَا وَصَاغَ عِجْلاً. عِنْدَئِذٍ قَالُوا: «هَذِهِ آلِهَتُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ الَّتِي أَخْرَجَتْكَ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ». | ٤ |
5 And when Aaron saw [it], he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To-morrow [is] a feast to the LORD.
| وَعِنْدَمَا شَاهَدَ هَرُونُ ذَلِكَ شَيَّدَ مَذْبَحاً أَمَامَ الْعِجْلِ وَأَعْلَنَ: «غَداً هُوَ عِيدٌ لِلرَّبِّ». | ٥ |
6 And they rose early on the morrow, and offered burnt-offerings, and brought peace-offerings: and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
| فَبَكَّرَ الشَّعْبُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّانِي وَأَصْعَدُوا مُحْرَقَاتٍ وَقَدَّمُوا قَرَابِينَ سَلامٍ. ثُمَّ احْتَفَلُوا فَأَكَلُوا وَشَرِبُوا، وَمِنْ ثَمَّ قَامُوا لِلَّهْوِ وَالْمُجُونِ. | ٦ |
7 And the LORD said to Moses, Go, go down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted [themselves]:
| فَأَمَرَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى: «قُمْ وَانْزِلْ فَإِنَّ الشَّعْبَ الَّذِي قَدْ أَخْرَجْتَهُ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، قَدْ فَسَدَ. | ٧ |
8 They have turned aside quickly from the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
| إِذِ انْحَرَفُوا سَرِيعاً عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ الَّذِي أَمَرْتُهُمْ بِهِ، فَصَاغُوا لَهُمْ عِجْلاً وَعَبَدُوهُ وَذَبَحُوا لَهُ الذَّبَائِحَ هَاتِفِينَ: هَذَا هُوَ إِلهُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ الَّذِي أَخْرَجَكَ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ». | ٨ |
9 And the LORD said to Moses, I have seen this people, and behold it [is] a stiff-necked people:
| وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «لَقَدْ تَأَمَّلْتُ فِي هَذَا الشَّعْبِ، وَإذَا بِهِ شَعْبٌ عَنِيدٌ مُتَصَلِّبُ الْقَلْبِ. | ٩ |
10 Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.
| وَالآنَ دَعْنِي وَغَضَبِي الْمُحْتَدِمَ فَأَفْنِيَهُمْ، ثُمَّ أَجْعَلَكَ أَنْتَ شَعْباً عَظِيماً». | ١٠ |
11 And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth from the land of Egypt, with great power, and with a mighty hand?
| فَابْتَهَلَ مُوسَى إِلَى الرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: «لِمَاذَا يَحْتَدِمُ غَضَبُكَ عَلَى شَعْبِكَ الَّذِي أَخْرَجْتَهُ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ بِقُوَّةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ مُقْتَدِرَةٍ؟ | ١١ |
12 Why should the Egyptians speak and say, For evil did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.
| لِمَاذَا يَشْمَتُ الْمِصْرِيُّونَ فِينَا قَائِلِينَ: لَقَدِ احْتَالَ عَلَيْهِمْ إِلَهُهُمْ فَأَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنْ هَهُنَا لِيُهْلِكَهُمْ فِي الْجِبَالِ وَيُفْنِيَهُمْ عَنْ وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ. ارْجِعْ عَنْ حُمُوِّ غَضَبِكَ وَلا تُوْقِعْ هَذَا الْعِقَابَ بِشَعْبِكَ. | ١٢ |
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel thy servants, to whom thou sworest by thine own self, and saidst to them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give to your seed, and they shall inherit [it] for ever.
| اذْكُرْ وُعُودَكَ لِعَبِيدِكَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِينَ أَقْسَمْتَ لَهُمْ بِنَفْسِكَ قَائِلاً: أُكَثِّرُ نَسْلَكُمْ كَنُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ، وَأَهَبُكُمْ جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَعَدْتُ بِها فَتَمْلِكُونَهَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ». | ١٣ |
14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do to his people.
| فَتَرَاءَفَ الرَّبُّ وَلَمْ يُوْقِعْ بِشَعْبِهِ الْعِقَابَ الَّذِي تَوَعَّدَ بِهِ. | ١٤ |
15 And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony [were] in his hand: the tables [were] written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other [were] they written.
| ثُمَّ نَزَلَ مُوسَى وَانْحَدَرَ مِنَ الجَبَلِ حَامِلاً فِي يَدِهِ لَوْحَيِ الشَّهَادَةِ (الْوَصَايَا الْعَشْرِ)، وَقَدْ نُقِشَتْ كِتَابَةٌ عَلَى وَجْهَيْ كُلٍّ مِنْهُمَا، | ١٥ |
16 And the tables [were] the work of God, and the writing [was] the writing of God, graven upon the tables.
| وَكَانَ اللهُ قَدْ صَنَعَ اللَّوْحَيْنِ وَنَقَشَ الْكِتَابَةَ عَلَيْهِمَا. | ١٦ |
17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, [There is] a noise of war in the camp.
| وَسَمِعَ يَشُوعُ هُتَافَ الشَّعْبِ فَقَالَ لِمُوسَى: «هَذَا صَوْتُ تَأَهُّبٍ لِقِتَالٍ فِي المُخَيَّمِ». | ١٧ |
18 And he said, [It is] not the voice of [them that] shout for mastery, neither [is it] the voice of [them that] cry for being overcome: [but] the noise of [them that] sing do I hear.
| فَأَجَابَهُ مُوسَى: «هَذَا لَيْسَ هُتَافَ نَصْرَةٍ وَلا صُرَاخَ هَزِيمَةٍ، لَكِنْ مَا أَسْمَعُهُ هُوَ صَوْتُ غِنَاءٍ». | ١٨ |
19 And it came to pass as soon as he came nigh to the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses's anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables from his hands, and broke them beneath the mount.
| وَمَا إِنِ اقْتَرَبَ مُوسَى مِنَ الْمُخَيَّمِ وَشَاهَدَ الْعِجْلَ وَالرَّقْصَ حَتَّى احْتَدَمَ غَضَبُهُ وَأَلْقَى بِاللَّوْحَيْنِ مِنْ يَدِهِ وَكَسَّرَهُمَا عِنْدَ سَفْحِ الْجَبَلِ. | ١٩ |
20 And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt [it] in the fire, and ground [it] to powder, and strewed [it] upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink [of it].
| ثُمَّ أَخَذَ العِجْلَ الذَّهَبِيَّ وَأَحْرَقَهُ بِالنَّارِ وَطَحَنَهُ حَتَّى صَارَ نَاعِماً، وَذَرَّاهُ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْمَاءِ وَأَرْغَمَهُمْ عَلَى الشُّرْبِ مِنْهُ. | ٢٠ |
21 And Moses said to Aaron, What did this people to thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
| وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِهرُونَ: «مَاذَا فَعَلَ بِكَ هَذَا الشَّعْبُ حَتَّى جَلَبْتَ عَلَيْهِ هَذِهِ الْخَطِيئَةَ الْعَظِيمَةَ؟» | ٢١ |
22 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people that they [are set] on mischief.
| فَأَجَابَ هَرُونُ: «لا يَحْتَدِمْ غَضَبُ سَيِّدِي. إِنَّكَ تَعْرِفُ شَرَّ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ. | ٢٢ |
23 For they said to me, Make us gods which shall go before us: for [as for] this Moses, the man that brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.
| لَقَدْ قَالُوا لِي: اصْنَعْ لَنَا إِلَهاً يَتَقَدَّمُنَا فِي مَسِيرِنَا، لأَنَّنَا لَا نَدْرِي مَاذَا أَصَابَ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ مُوسَى الَّذِي أَخْرَجَنَا مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ، | ٢٣ |
24 And I said to them, Whoever hath any gold, let them break [it] off: So they gave [it] to me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
| فَقُلْتُ لَهُمْ مَنْ لَدَيْهِ ذَهَبٌ فَلْيَنْزِعْهُ وَيُعْطِنِي إِيَّاهُ، فَطَرَحْتُهُ فِي النَّارِ فَخَرَجَ هَذَا الْعِجْلُ». | ٢٤ |
25 And when Moses saw that the people [were] naked (for Aaron had made them naked to [their] shame, among their enemies: )
| وَلَمَّا رَأَى مُوسَى أَنَّ الشَّعْبَ غَارِقٌ فِي مُجُونِهِ بَعْدَ أَنْ أَفْلَتَ هَرُونُ زِمَامَهُمْ فَصَارُوا بِذَلِكَ مَثَارَ سُخْرِيَةِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ، | ٢٥ |
26 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who [is] on the LORD'S side? [let him come] to me. And all the sons of Levi assembled themselves to him.
| وَقَفَ فِي بَابِ الْمُخَيَّمِ وَصَاحَ: «كُلُّ مَنْ يَتْبَعُ الرَّبَّ فَلْيُقْبِلْ إِلَيَّ هُنَا». فَاجْتَمَعَ حَوْلَهُ اللّاوِيُّونَ. | ٢٦ |
27 And he said to them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, [and] go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.
| فَهَتَفَ بِهِمْ: «هَذَا مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: لِيَتَقَلَّدْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ سَيْفَهُ، وَجُولُوا فِي الْمُخَيَّمِ ذِهَاباً وَإِيَاباً مِنْ مَدْخَلٍ إِلَى مَدْخَلٍ، وَاقْتُلُوا كُلَّ دَاعِرٍ أَخاً كَانَ أَمْ صَاحِباً أَمْ قَرِيباً». | ٢٧ |
28 And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.
| فَأَطَاعَ اللّاوِيُّونَ أَمْرَ مُوسَى. فَقُتِلَ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ نَحْوَ ثَلاثَةِ آلافِ رَجُلٍ. | ٢٨ |
29 For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves to-day to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ قَالَ مُوسَى لِلّاوِيِّينَ: «لَقَدْ كَرَّسْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ أَنْفُسَكُمْ لِخِدْمَةِ الرَّبِّ، وَقَدْ كَلَّفَ ذَلِكَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ قَتْلَ ابْنِهِ أَوْ أَخِيهِ، وَلِكِنْ لِيُنْعِمْ عَلَيْكُمُ الرَّبُّ فِي هَذَا اليَوْمِ بِبَرَكَةٍ». | ٢٩ |
30 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said to the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up to the LORD; it may be I shall make an atonement for your sin.
| وَفِي الْغَدِ قَالَ مُوسَى لِلشَّعْبِ: «لَقَدِ ارْتَكَبْتُمْ خَطِيئَةً عَظِيمَةً، وَهَا أَنَا أَعُودُ إِلَى الْجَبَلِ لأَمْثُلَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، لَعَلِّي أَحْظَى لَكُمْ بِغُفْرَانِهِ». | ٣٠ |
31 And Moses returned to the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
| وَرَجَعَ مُوسَى إِلَى الرَّبِّ وَتَضَرَّعَ قَائِلاً: «يَا رَبُّ لَقَدِ اقْتَرَفَ هَذَا الشَّعْبُ خَطِيئَةً عَظِيمَةً، وَصَاغُوا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ إِلَهاً مِنْ ذَهَبٍ. | ٣١ |
32 Yet now, if thou wilt, forgive their sin: and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
| وَالآنَ إِنْ شِئْتَ، فَاغْفِرْ لَهُمْ، وَإلَّا فَامْحُنِي مِنْ كِتَابِكَ الَّذِي كَتَبْتَ». | ٣٢ |
33 And the LORD said to Moses, Whoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
| فَأَجَابَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى: «الَّذِي أَخْطَأَ إِلَيَّ أَمْحُوهُ مِنْ كِتَابِي | ٣٣ |
34 Therefore now go, lead the people to [the place] of which I have spoken to thee: Behold, my angel shall go before thee: Nevertheless, in the day when I visit, I will visit their sin upon them.
| وَالآنَ اذْهَبْ، وَقُدِ الشَّعْبَ إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي ذَكَرْتُهُ لَكَ. وَهَا هُوَ مَلاكِي يَتَقَدَّمُكَ، وَلَكِنْ لابُدَّ مِنْ مُعَاقَبَةِ الشَّعْبِ عَلَى خَطِيئَتِهِمْ فِي يَوْمِ قَضَائِي». | ٣٤ |
35 And the LORD afflicted the people, because they made the calf which Aaron made.
| وَضَرَبَ الرَّبُّ الشَّعْبَ بالْوَبَأِ عِقَاباً لَهُمْ عَلَى عِبَادَةِ الْعِجْلِ الَّذِي صَنَعَهُ هَرُونُ. | ٣٥ |
