< 2 Chronicles 20 >

1 Aftir these thingis the sones of Moab, and the sones of Amon, and with hem of Idumeis, weren gaderid togidere to Josaphat, for to fiyte ayens hym.
ثُمَّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَتَى بَنُو مُوآبَ وَبَنُو عَمُّونَ وَمَعَهُمُ ٱلْعَمُّونِيُّونَ عَلَى يَهُوشَافَاطَ لِلْمُحَارَبَةِ.١
2 And messangeris camen, and schewiden to Josaphat, seiden, A greet multitude of tho placis that ben biyondis the see, and of Sirie, is comun ayens thee; and, lo! thei stonden in Asasonthamar, which is Engaddi.
فَجَاءَ أُنَاسٌ وَأَخْبَرُوا يَهُوشَافَاطَ قَائِلِينَ: «قَدْ جَاءَ عَلَيْكَ جُمْهُورٌ كَثِيرٌ مِنْ عَبْرِ ٱلْبَحْرِ مِنْ أَرَامَ، وَهَا هُمْ فِي حَصُّونَ تَامَارَ». هِيَ عَيْنُ جَدْيٍ.٢
3 Forsothe Josaphat was aferd by drede, and `yaf hym silf al for to preye `the Lord, and prechide fastynge to al Juda.
فَخَافَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ وَجَعَلَ وَجْهَهُ لِيَطْلُبَ ٱلرَّبَّ، وَنَادَى بِصَوْمٍ فِي كُلِّ يَهُوذَا.٣
4 And Juda was gaderid togidere for to preye the Lord, but also alle men camen fro her citees for to biseche hym.
وَٱجْتَمَعَ يَهُوذَا لِيَسْأَلُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. جَاءُوا أَيْضًا مِنْ كُلِّ مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا لِيَسْأَلُوا ٱلرَّبَّ.٤
5 And whanne Josaphat hadde stonde in the myddis of the cumpeny of Juda and of Jerusalem, in the hows of the Lord, bifor the newe large place,
فَوَقَفَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ فِي جَمَاعَةِ يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَمَامَ ٱلدَّارِ ٱلْجَدِيدَةِ٥
6 he seide, Lord God of oure fadris, thou art God in heuene, and thou art lord of alle rewmes of folkis; strengthe and power ben in thin hond, `and noon may ayenstonde thee.
وَقَالَ: «يَارَبُّ إِلَهَ آبَائِنَا، أَمَا أَنْتَ هُوَ ٱللهُ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَأَنْتَ ٱلْمُتَسَلِّطُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَبِيَدِكَ قُوَّةٌ وَجَبَرُوتٌ وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَقِفُ مَعَكَ؟٦
7 Whether not thou, oure God, hast slayn alle the dwelleris of this lond bifor thi puple Israel, and hast youe it to the seed of Abraham, thi freend, withouten ende?
أَلَسْتَ أَنْتَ إِلَهَنَا ٱلَّذِي طَرَدْتَ سُكَّانَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ أَمَامِ شَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَأَعْطَيْتَهَا لِنَسْلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلِكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ؟٧
8 And thei dwelliden therynne, and bildiden therinne a seyntuarie to thi name, and seiden,
فَسَكَنُوا فِيهَا وَبَنَوْا لَكَ فِيهَا مَقْدِسًا لِٱسْمِكَ قَائِلِينَ:٨
9 If yuelis comen on vs, the swerd of doom, pestilence, and hungur, we schulen stonde bifor this hows withouten ende in thi siyt, in which hows thi name is clepid, and we schulen crie to thee in oure tribulaciouns; and thou schalt here vs, and schalt make vs saaf.
إِذَا جَاءَ عَلَيْنَا شَرٌّ، سَيْفٌ قَضَاءٌ أَوْ وَبَأٌ أَوْ جُوعٌ، وَوَقَفْنَا أَمَامَ هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتِ وَأَمَامَكَ، لِأَنَّ ٱسْمَكَ فِي هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتِ، وَصَرَخْنَا إِلَيْكَ مِنْ ضِيقِنَا فَإِنَّكَ تَسْمَعُ وَتُخَلِّصُ.٩
10 Now therfor lo! the sones of Amon and of Moab and the hil of Seir, bi whiche thou grauntidist not to the sones of Israel for to passe, whanne thei yeden out of Egipt, but thei bowiden awei fro hem, and killiden not hem,
وَٱلْآنَ هُوَذَا بَنُو عَمُّونَ وَمُوآبُ وَجَبَلُ سَاعِيرَ، ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ تَدَعْ إِسْرَائِيلَ يَدْخُلُونَ إِلَيْهِمْ حِينَ جَاءُوا مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، بَلْ مَالُوا عَنْهُمْ وَلَمْ يُهْلِكُوهُمْ،١٠
11 thei doon ayenward, and enforsen to caste vs out of the possessioun, which thou, oure God, hast youe to vs;
فَهُوَذَا هُمْ يُكَافِئُونَنَا بِمَجِيئِهِمْ لِطَرْدِنَا مِنْ مُلْكِكَ ٱلَّذِي مَلَّكْتَنَا إِيَّاهُ.١١
12 therfor whether thou schalt not deme hem? Treuli in vs is not so greet strengthe, that we moun ayenstonde this multitude, that felde yn on vs; but sithen we witen not what we owen to do, we `han oneli this residue, that we dresse oure iyen to thee.
يَا إِلَهَنَا أَمَا تَقْضِي عَلَيْهِمْ، لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِينَا قُوَّةٌ أَمَامَ هَذَا ٱلْجُمْهُورِ ٱلْكَثِيرِ ٱلْآتِي عَلَيْنَا، وَنَحْنُ لَا نَعْلَمُ مَاذَا نَعْمَلُ وَلَكِنْ نَحْوَكَ أَعْيُنُنَا».١٢
13 Sotheli al Juda stood bifor the Lord, with her litle children and wyues and fre children.
وَكَانَ كُلُّ يَهُوذَا وَاقِفِينَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ مَعَ أَطْفَالِهِمْ وَنِسَائِهِمْ وَبَنِيهِمْ.١٣
14 Forsothe Hiaziel, the sone of Zacarie, sone of Ananye, sone of Hieyel, sone of Machanye, was a dekene, and of the sones of Asaph, on whom the Spirit of the Lord was maad in the myddis of the cumpeny,
وَإِنَّ يَحْزَئِيلَ بْنَ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ بَنَايَا بْنِ يَعِيئِيلَ بْنِ مَتَّنِيَّا ٱللَّاوِيِّ مِنْ بَنِي آسَافَ، كَانَ عَلَيْهِ رُوحُ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ،١٤
15 and he seide, Al Juda, and ye that dwellen in Jerusalem, and thou, king Josaphat, perseyue ye, the Lord seith these thingis to you, Nyle ye drede, nether be ye aferd of this multitude, for it is not youre batel, but Goddis batel.
فَقَالَ: «ٱصْغَوْا يَا جَمِيعَ يَهُوذَا وَسُكَّانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَأَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ يَهُوشَافَاطُ. هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لَكُمْ: لَا تَخَافُوا وَلَا تَرْتَاعُوا بِسَبَبِ هَذَا ٱلْجُمْهُورِ ٱلْكَثِيرِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْحَرْبَ لَيْسَتْ لَكُمْ بَلْ لِلهِ.١٥
16 To morewe ye schulen stie `ayens hem; for thei schulen stie bi the side of the hil, `bi name Seys, and ye schulen fynde hem in the hiynesse of the stronde, which is ayens the wildirnesse of Jheruhel.
غَدًا ٱنْزِلُوا عَلَيْهِمْ. هُوَذَا هُمْ صَاعِدُونَ فِي عَقَبَةِ صِيصَ فَتَجِدُوهُمْ فِي أَقْصَى ٱلْوَادِي أَمَامَ بَرِّيَّةِ يَرُوئِيلَ.١٦
17 For it schulen not be ye, that schulen fiyte; but oneli stonde ye trustili, and ye schulen se the help of the Lord on you. A! Juda and Jerusalem, nyle ye drede, nether be ye aferd; to morewe ye schulen go out ayens hem, and the Lord schal be with you.
لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تُحَارِبُوا فِي هَذِهِ. قِفُوا ٱثْبُتُوا وَٱنْظُرُوا خَلَاصَ ٱلرَّبِّ مَعَكُمْ يَا يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمُ. لَا تَخَافُوا وَلَا تَرْتَاعُوا. غَدًا ٱخْرُجُوا لِلِقَائِهِمْ وَٱلرَّبُّ مَعَكُمْ».١٧
18 Therfor Josaphat, and Juda, and alle the dwelleris of Jerusalem, felden lowli on the erthe bifor the Lord, and worschypiden hym.
فَخَرَّ يَهُوشَافَاطُ لِوَجْهِهِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَكُلُّ يَهُوذَا وَسُكَّانُ أُورُشَلِيمَ سَقَطُوا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ سُجُودًا لِلرَّبِّ.١٨
19 Forsothe the dekenes of the sones of Caath, and of the sones of Chore, herieden the Lord God of Israel with greet vois an hiy.
فَقَامَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ مِنْ بَنِي ٱلْقَهَاتِيِّينَ وَمِنْ بَنِي ٱلْقُورَحِيِّينَ لِيُسَبِّحُوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ جِدًّا.١٩
20 And whanne thei hadden rise eerli, thei yeden not bi the deseert of Thecue; and whanne thei `hadden gon forth, Josaphat stood in the myddis of hem, and seide, Juda and alle the dwelleris of Jerusalem, here ye me; bileue ye in `youre Lord God, and ye schulen be sikur; bileue ye to hise prophetis, and alle prosperitees schulen come.
وَبَكَّرُوا صَبَاحًا وَخَرَجُوا إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ تَقُوعَ. وَعِنْدَ خُرُوجِهِمْ وَقَفَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ وَقَالَ: «ٱسْمَعُوا يَايَهُوذَا وَسُكَّانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، آمِنُوا بِٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ فَتَأْمَنُوا. آمِنُوا بِأَنْبِيَائِهِ فَتُفْلِحُوا».٢٠
21 And he yaf counsel to the puple, and he ordeynede the syngeris of the Lord, that thei schulden herye hym in her cumpanyes, and that thei schulden go bifor the oost, and seie with acordynge vois, Knouleche ye to the Lord, for he is good; for his merci is `in to the world.
وَلَمَّا ٱسْتَشَارَ ٱلشَّعْبَ أَقَامَ مُغَنِّينَ لِلرَّبِّ وَمُسَبِّحِينَ فِي زِينَةٍ مُقَدَّسَةٍ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِهِمْ أَمَامَ ٱلْمُتَجَرِّدِينَ وَقَائِلِينَ: «ٱحْمَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ».٢١
22 And whanne thei bigunnen to synge heriyngis, the Lord turnede the buyschementis of hem `in to hem silf, that is, of the sones of Amon and of Moab and of the hil of Seir, that yeden out to fiyte ayens Juda; and thei weren slayn.
وَلَمَّا ٱبْتَدَأُوا فِي ٱلْغِنَاءِ وَٱلتَّسْبِيحِ جَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ أَكْمِنَةً عَلَى بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَمُوآبَ وَجَبَلِ سَاعِيرَ ٱلْآتِينَ عَلَى يَهُوذَا فَٱنْكَسَرُوا.٢٢
23 For whi the sones of Amon and of Moab risiden togidere ayens the dwelleris of the hil of Seir, to sle, and to do awey hem; and whanne thei hadden do this in werk, thei weren `turned also `in to hem silf, and felden doun togidere bi woundis ech of othere.
وَقَامَ بَنُو عَمُّونَ وَمُوآبُ عَلَى سُكَّانِ جَبَلِ سَاعِيرَ لِيُحَرِّمُوهُمْ وَيُهْلِكُوهُمْ. وَلَمَّا فَرَغُوا مِنْ سُكَّانِ سَاعِيرَ سَاعَدَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى إِهْلَاكِ بَعْضٍ.٢٣
24 Certis whanne Juda was comun to the denne, that biholdith the wildirnesse, he siy afer al the large cuntrei ful of deed bodies, and that noon was left, that miyte ascape deeth.
وَلَمَّا جَاءَ يَهُوذَا إِلَى ٱلْمَرْقَبِ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ تَطَلَّعُوا نَحْوَ ٱلْجُمْهُورِ وَإِذَا هُمْ جُثَثٌ سَاقِطَةٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَمْ يَنْفَلِتْ أَحَدٌ.٢٤
25 Therfor Josaphat cam, and al the puple with hym, to drawe awey the spuylis of deed men, and thei founden among the deed bodies dyuerse purtenaunce of houshold, and clothis, and ful preciouse vessels; and thei rauyischiden in dyuerse maneres, so that thei myyten not bere alle thingis, nether thei myyten take awei the spuylis bi thre daies, for the greetnesse of prey.
فَأَتَى يَهُوشَافَاطُ وَشَعْبُهُ لِنَهْبِ أَمْوَالِهِمْ، فَوَجَدُوا بَيْنَهُمْ أَمْوَالًا وَجُثَثًا وَأَمْتِعَةً ثَمِينَةً بِكَثْرَةٍ، فَأَخَذُوهَا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ حَتَّى لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَحْمِلُوهَا. وَكَانُوا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ يَنْهَبُونَ ٱلْغَنِيمَةَ لِأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ كَثِيرَةً.٢٥
26 Sotheli in the fourthe dai thei weren gaderid togidere in the valey of Blessyng; `forsothe for thei blessiden the Lord there, thei clepiden that place the valei of Blessyng `til in to present dai.
وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعِ ٱجْتَمَعُوا فِي وَادِي بَرَكَةَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ هُنَاكَ بَارَكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ، لِذَلِكَ دَعَوْا ٱسْمَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَكَانِ «وَادِي بَرَكَةَ» إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ.٢٦
27 And ech man of Juda turnede ayen, and the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and Josaphat bifor hem, in to Jerusalem with greet gladnesse; for the Lord God hadde youe to hem ioye of her enemyes.
ثُمَّ ٱرْتَدَّ كُلُّ رِجَالِ يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ وَيَهُوشَافَاطُ بِرَأْسِهِمْ لِيَرْجِعُوا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ بِفَرَحٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ فَرَّحَهُمْ عَلَى أَعْدَائِهِمْ.٢٧
28 And thei entriden in to Jerusalem with sawtrees, and harpis, and trumpis, in to the hows of the Lord.
وَدَخَلُوا أُورُشَلِيمَ بِٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلْعِيدَانِ وَٱلْأَبْوَاقِ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ.٢٨
29 Forsothe the drede of the Lord felde on alle the rewmes of londis, whanne thei hadden herd, that the Lord hadde fouyte ayens the enemies of Israel.
وَكَانَتْ هَيْبَةُ ٱللهِ عَلَى كُلِّ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي حِينَ سَمِعُوا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ حَارَبَ أَعْدَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ.٢٩
30 And the rewme of Josaphat restide; and the Lord yaf `pees to hym `bi cumpas.
وَٱسْتَرَاحَتْ مَمْلَكَةُ يَهُوشَافَاطَ، وَأَرَاحَهُ إِلَهُهُ مِنْ كُلِّ جِهَةٍ.٣٠
31 Therfor Josaphat regnede on Juda; and he was of fyue and thritti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne; sotheli he regnede fyue and twenti yeer in Jerusalem; and the name of his modir was Azuba, the douytir of Selathi.
وَمَلَكَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ عَلَى يَهُوذَا. كَانَ ٱبْنَ خَمْسٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ خَمْسًا وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ عَزُوبَةُ بِنْتُ شَلْحِي.٣١
32 And he yede in the weie of Asa his fadir, and bowide not fro it, and he dide what euer thingis weren plesaunt bifor the Lord.
وَسَارَ فِي طَرِيقِ أَبِيهِ آسَا وَلَمْ يَحِدْ عَنْهَا إِذْ عَمِلَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ.٣٢
33 Netheles he dide not awei hiy thingis; yit the puple hadde not dressid her herte to the Lord God of her fadris.
إِلَّا أَنَّ ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ لَمْ تُنْتَزَعْ، بَلْ كَانَ ٱلشَّعْبُ لَمْ يُعِدُّوا بَعْدُ قُلُوبَهُمْ لِإِلَهِ آبَائِهِمْ.٣٣
34 Forsothe the residue of the formere and the laste dedis of Josaphat ben writun in the book of Hieu, the sone of Anany, which he ordeynede in the book of kyngis of Israel.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ يَهُوشَافَاطَ ٱلْأُولَى وَٱلْأَخِيرَةِ، هَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي أَخْبَارِ يَاهُوَ بْنِ حَنَانِي ٱلْمَذْكُورِ فِي سِفْرِ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.٣٤
35 After these thingis Josaphat, kyng of Juda, made frendschipis with Ocozie, kyng of Israel, whose werkis weren ful yuele;
ثُمَّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ٱتَّحَدَ يَهُوشَافَاطُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا مَعَ أَخَزْيَا مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي أَسَاءَ فِي عَمَلِهِ.٣٥
36 and he was parcener that thei maden schippis, that schulden go in to Tharsis; and thei maden o schip in to Asiongaber.
فَٱتَّحَدَ مَعَهُ فِي عَمَلِ سُفُنٍ تَسِيرُ إِلَى تَرْشِيشَ، فَعَمِلَا ٱلسُّفُنَ فِي عِصْيُونَ جَابِرَ.٣٦
37 Sotheli Eliezer, sone of Dodan, of Maresa, profesiede to Josaphat, and seide, For thou haddist boond of pees with Ocozie, the Lord smoot thi werkis; and the schippis ben brokun, and myyten not go in to Tharsis.
وَتَنَبَّأَ أَلِيعَزَرُ بْنُ دُودَاوَاهُو مِنْ مَرِيشَةَ عَلَى يَهُوشَافَاطَ قَائِلًا: «لِأَنَّكَ ٱتَّحَدْتَ مَعَ أَخَزْيَا، قَدِ ٱقْتَحَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ أَعْمَالَكَ». فَتَكَسَّرَتِ ٱلسُّفُنُ وَلَمْ تَسْتَطِعِ ٱلسَّيْرَ إِلَى تَرْشِيشَ.٣٧
