Jeremiah 36
1 In the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
| وَكَانَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلرَّابِعَةِ لِيَهُويَاقِيمَ بْنِ يُوشِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، أَنَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَةَ صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلَةً: | ١ |
2 “Take a scroll of a book, and write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel, against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke to you, from the days of Josiah even to this day.
| «خُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ دَرْجَ سِفْرٍ، وَٱكْتُبْ فِيهِ كُلَّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمْتُكَ بِهِ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ وَعَلَى يَهُوذَا وَعَلَى كُلِّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمْتُكَ فِيهِ، مِنْ أَيَّامِ يُوشِيَّا إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ٢ |
3 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I intend to do to them, that they may each return from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.”
| لَعَلَّ بَيْتَ يَهُوذَا يَسْمَعُونَ كُلَّ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي أَنَا مُفَكِّرٌ أَنْ أَصْنَعَهُ بِهِمْ، فَيَرْجِعُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ طَرِيقِهِ ٱلرَّدِيءِ، فَأَغْفِرَ ذَنْبَهُمْ وَخَطِيَّتَهُمْ». | ٣ |
4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the LORD’s words, which he had spoken to him, on a scroll of a book.
| فَدَعَا إِرْمِيَا بَارُوخَ بْنَ نِيرِيَّا، فَكَتَبَ بَارُوخُ عَنْ فَمِ إِرْمِيَا كُلَّ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَهُ بِهِ فِي دَرْجِ ٱلسِّفْرِ. | ٤ |
5 Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, “I am restricted. I can’t go into the LORD’s house.
| وَأَوْصَى إِرْمِيَا بَارُوخَ قَائِلًا: «أَنَا مَحْبُوسٌ لَا أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَدْخُلَ بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٥ |
6 Therefore you go, and read from the scroll which you have written from my mouth, the LORD’s words, in the ears of the people in the LORD’s house on the fast day. Also you shall read them in the ears of all Judah who come out of their cities.
| فَٱدْخُلْ أَنْتَ وَٱقْرَأْ فِي ٱلدَّرْجِ ٱلَّذِي كَتَبْتَ عَنْ فَمِي كُلَّ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي آذَانِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلصَّوْمِ، وَٱقْرَأْهُ أَيْضًا فِي آذَانِ كُلِّ يَهُوذَا ٱلْقَادِمِينَ مِنْ مُدُنِهِمْ. | ٦ |
7 It may be they will present their supplication before the LORD, and will each return from his evil way; for the LORD has pronounced great anger and wrath against this people.”
| لَعَلَّ تَضَرُّعَهُمْ يَقَعُ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَيَرْجِعُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ طَرِيقِهِ ٱلرَّدِيءِ، لِأَنَّهُ عَظِيمٌ ٱلْغَضَبُ وَٱلْغَيْظُ ٱللَّذَانِ تَكَلَّمَ بِهِمَا ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ». | ٧ |
8 Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the LORD’s words in the LORD’s house.
| فَفَعَلَ بَارُوخُ بْنُ نِيرِيَّا حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَوْصَاهُ بِهِ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ، بِقِرَاءَتِهِ فِي ٱلسِّفْرِ كَلَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٨ |
9 Now in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem, proclaimed a fast before the LORD.
| وَكَانَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْخَامِسَةِ لِيَهُويَاقِيمَ بْنِ يُوشِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلتَّاسِعِ، أَنَّهُمْ نَادَوْا لِصَوْمٍ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، كُلَّ ٱلشَّعْبِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَكُلَّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْقَادِمِينَ مِنْ مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ٩ |
10 Then Baruch read the words of Jeremiah from the book in the LORD’s house, in the room of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of the LORD’s house, in the ears of all the people.
| فَقَرَأَ بَارُوخُ فِي ٱلسِّفْرِ كَلَامَ إِرْمِيَا فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي مِخْدَعِ جَمَرْيَا بْنِ شَافَانَ ٱلْكَاتِبِ، فِي ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْعُلْيَا، فِي مَدْخَلِ بَابِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْجَدِيدِ، فِي آذَانِ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ١٠ |
11 When Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the LORD’s words,
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ مِيخَايَا بْنُ جَمَرْيَا بْنِ شَافَانَ كُلَّ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنَ ٱلسِّفْرِ، | ١١ |
12 he went down into the king’s house, into the scribe’s room; and behold, all the princes were sitting there, Elishama the scribe, Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
| نَزَلَ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، إِلَى مِخْدَعِ ٱلْكَاتِبِ، وَإِذَا كُلُّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ جُلُوسٌ هُنَاكَ: أَلِيشَامَاعُ ٱلْكَاتِبُ، وَدَلَايَا بْنُ شِمْعِيَا، وَأَلْنَاثَانُ بْنُ عَكْبُورَ، وَجَمَرْيَا بْنُ شَافَانَ، وَصِدْقِيَّا بْنُ حَنَنِيَّا، وَكُلُّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ. | ١٢ |
13 Then Micaiah declared to them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
| فَأَخْبَرَهُمْ مِيخَايَا بِكُلِّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعَهُ عِنْدَمَا قَرَأَ بَارُوخُ ٱلسِّفْرَ فِي آذَانِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. | ١٣ |
14 Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the scroll in which you have read in the ears of the people, and come.” So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand, and came to them.
| فَأَرْسَلَ كُلُّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ إِلَى بَارُوخَ يَهُودِيَ بْنَ نَثَنْيَا بْنِ شَلَمْيَا بْنِ كُوشِي قَائِلِينَ: «ٱلدَّرْجُ ٱلَّذِي قَرَأْتَ فِيهِ فِي آذَانِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، خُذْهُ بِيَدِكَ وَتَعَالَ». فَأَخَذَ بَارُوخُ بْنُ نِيرِيَّا ٱلدَّرْجَ بِيَدِهِ وَأَتَى إِلَيْهِمْ. | ١٤ |
15 They said to him, “Sit down now, and read it in our hearing.” So Baruch read it in their hearing.
| فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «ٱجْلِسْ وَٱقْرَأْهُ فِي آذَانِنَا». فَقَرَأَ بَارُوخُ فِي آذَانِهِمْ. | ١٥ |
16 Now when they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one towards another, and said to Baruch, “We will surely tell the king of all these words.”
| فَكَانَ لَمَّا سَمِعُوا كُلَّ ٱلْكَلَامِ أَنَّهُمْ خَافُوا نَاظِرِينَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى بَعْضٍ، وَقَالُوا لِبَارُوخَ: «إِخْبَارًا نُخْبِرُ ٱلْمَلِكَ بِكُلِّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ». | ١٦ |
17 They asked Baruch, saying, “Tell us now, how did you write all these words at his mouth?”
| ثُمَّ سَأَلُوا بَارُوخَ قَائِلِينَ: «أَخْبِرْنَا كَيْفَ كَتَبْتَ كُلَّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ عَنْ فَمِهِ؟» | ١٧ |
18 Then Baruch answered them, “He dictated all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.”
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ بَارُوخُ: «بِفَمِهِ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ لِي كُلَّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ، وَأَنَا كُنْتُ أَكْتُبُ فِي ٱلسِّفْرِ بِٱلْحِبْرِ». | ١٨ |
19 Then the princes said to Baruch, “You and Jeremiah go hide. Don’t let anyone know where you are.”
| فَقَالَ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ لِبَارُوخَ: «ٱذْهَبْ وَٱخْتَبِئْ أَنْتَ وَإِرْمِيَا وَلَا يَعْلَمُ إِنْسَانٌ أَيْنَ أَنْتُمَا». | ١٩ |
20 They went in to the king into the court, but they had laid up the scroll in the room of Elishama the scribe. Then they told all the words in the hearing of the king.
| ثُمَّ دَخَلُوا إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ إِلَى ٱلدَّارِ، وَأَوْدَعُوا ٱلدَّرْجَ فِي مِخْدَعِ أَلِيشَامَاعَ ٱلْكَاتِبِ، وَأَخْبَرُوا فِي أُذُنَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ بِكُلِّ ٱلْكَلَامِ. | ٢٠ |
21 So the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it out of the room of Elishama the scribe. Jehudi read it in the hearing of the king, and in the hearing of all the princes who stood beside the king.
| فَأَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ يَهُودِيَ لِيَأْخُذَ ٱلدَّرْجَ، فَأَخَذَهُ مِنْ مِخْدَعِ أَلِيشَامَاعَ ٱلْكَاتِبِ، وَقَرَأَهُ يَهُودِيَ فِي أُذُنَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَفِي آذَانِ كُلِّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ ٱلْوَاقِفِينَ لَدَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٢١ |
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter house in the ninth month, and there was a fire in the brazier burning before him.
| وَكَانَ ٱلْمَلِكُ جَالِسًا فِي بَيْتِ ٱلشِّتَاءِ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلتَّاسِعِ، وَٱلْكَانُونُ قُدَّامَهُ مُتَّقِدٌ. | ٢٢ |
23 When Jehudi had read three or four columns, the king cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا قَرَأَ يَهُودِيُ ثَلَاثَةَ شُطُورٍ أَوْ أَرْبَعَةً أَنَّهُ شَقَّهُ بِمِبْرَاةِ ٱلْكَاتِبِ، وَأَلْقَاهُ إِلَى ٱلنَّارِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْكَانُونِ، حَتَّى فَنِيَ كُلُّ ٱلدَّرْجِ فِي ٱلنَّارِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْكَانُونِ. | ٢٣ |
24 The king and his servants who heard all these words were not afraid, and didn’t tear their garments.
| وَلَمْ يَخَفِ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَلَا كُلُّ عَبِيدِهِ ٱلسَّامِعِينَ كُلَّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ، وَلَا شَقَّقُوا ثِيَابَهُمْ. | ٢٤ |
25 Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the scroll; but he would not listen to them.
| وَلَكِنَّ أَلْنَاثَانَ وَدَلَايَا وَجَمَرْيَا تَرَجَّوْا ٱلْمَلِكَ أَنْ لَا يُحْرِقَ ٱلدَّرْجَ فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُمْ. | ٢٥ |
26 The king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to arrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but the LORD hid them.
| بَلْ أَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ يَرْحَمْئِيلَ ٱبْنَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَسَرَايَا بْنَ عَزَرْئِيلَ، وَشَلَمْيَا بْنَ عَبْدِئِيلَ، أَنْ يَقْبِضُوا عَلَى بَارُوخَ ٱلْكَاتِبِ وَإِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ خَبَّأَهُمَا. | ٢٦ |
27 Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, after the king had burnt the scroll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
| ثُمَّ صَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا بَعْدَ إِحْرَاقِ ٱلْمَلِكِ ٱلدَّرْجَ وَٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي كَتَبَهُ بَارُوخُ عَنْ فَمِ إِرْمِيَا قَائِلَةً: | ٢٧ |
28 “Take again another scroll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah has burnt.
| «عُدْ فَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ دَرْجًا آخَرَ، وَٱكْتُبْ فِيهِ كُلَّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ فِي ٱلدَّرْجِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ ٱلَّذِي أَحْرَقَهُ يَهُويَاقِيمُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا، | ٢٨ |
29 Concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ‘The LORD says: “You have burnt this scroll, saying, ‘Why have you written therein, saying, “The king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will cause to cease from there man and animal”?’”
| وَقُلْ لِيَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَنْتَ قَدْ أَحْرَقْتَ ذَلِكَ ٱلدَّرْجَ قَائِلًا: لِمَاذَا كَتَبْتَ فِيهِ قَائِلًا: مَجِيئًا يَجِيءُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ وَيُهْلِكُ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَيُلَاشِي مِنْهَا ٱلْإِنْسَانَ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَ؟ | ٢٩ |
30 Therefore the LORD says concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: “He will have no one to sit on David’s throne. His dead body will be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
| لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ يَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا: لَا يَكُونُ لَهُ جَالِسٌ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ دَاوُدَ، وَتَكُونُ جُثَّتُهُ مَطْرُوحَةً لِلْحَرِّ نَهَارًا، وَلِلْبَرْدِ لَيْلًا. | ٣٠ |
31 I will punish him, his offspring, and his servants for their iniquity. I will bring on them, on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and on the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they didn’t listen.”’”
| وَأُعَاقِبُهُ وَنَسْلَهُ وَعَبِيدَهُ عَلَى إِثْمِهِمْ، وَأَجْلِبُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَعَلَى سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَعَلَى رِجَالِ يَهُوذَا كُلَّ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمْتُهُمْ عَنْهُ وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا». | ٣١ |
32 Then Jeremiah took another scroll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burnt in the fire; and many similar words were added to them.
| فَأَخَذَ إِرْمِيَا دَرْجًا آخَرَ وَدَفَعَهُ لِبَارُوخَ بْنِ نِيرِيَّا ٱلْكَاتِبِ، فَكَتَبَ فِيهِ عَنْ فَمِ إِرْمِيَا كُلَّ كَلَامِ ٱلسِّفْرِ ٱلَّذِي أَحْرَقَهُ يَهُويَاقِيمُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا بِٱلنَّارِ، وَزِيدَ عَلَيْهِ أَيْضًا كَلَامٌ كَثِيرٌ مِثْلُهُ. | ٣٢ |
