< Jeremiah 25 >

1 The word that hath been unto Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, — it [is] the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, —
اَلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي صَارَ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا عَنْ كُلِّ شَعْبِ يَهُوذَا، فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلرَّابِعَةِ لِيَهُويَاقِيمَ بْنِ يُوشِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، هِيَ ٱلسَّنَةُ ٱلْأُولَى لِنَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ،١
2 Which Jeremiah the prophet hath spoken concerning all the people of Judah, even unto all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying:
ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ عَلَى كُلِّ شَعْبِ يَهُوذَا وَعَلَى كُلِّ سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ قَائِلًا:٢
3 'From the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah, and unto this day — this three and twentieth year — hath the word of Jehovah been unto me, and I speak unto you, rising early and speaking, and ye have not hearkened;
«مِنَ ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّالِثَةِ عَشَرَةَ لِيُوشِيَّا بْنِ آمُونَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، هَذِهِ ٱلثَّلَاثِ وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً، صَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَيَّ فَكَلَّمْتُكُمْ مُبَكِّرًا وَمُكَلِّمًا فَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا.٣
4 And Jehovah hath sent unto you all His servants, the prophets, rising early and sending, and ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear, saying:
وَقَدْ أَرْسَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَيْكُمْ كُلَّ عَبِيدِهِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ مُبَكِّرًا وَمُرْسِلًا فَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا وَلَمْ تُمِيلُوا أُذُنَكُمْ لِلسَّمْعِ،٤
5 'Turn back, I pray you, each from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell on the ground that Jehovah hath given to you and to your fathers from age unto age,
قَائِلِينَ: ٱرْجِعُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ طَرِيقِهِ ٱلرَّدِيءِ وَعَنْ شَرِّ أَعْمَالِكُمْ وَٱسْكُنُوا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِيَّاهَا وَآبَاءَكُمْ مِنَ ٱلْأَزَلِ وَإِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.٥
6 And ye do not go after other gods to serve them, and to bow yourselves to them, nor do ye provoke Me to anger with the work of your hands, and I do no evil to you;
وَلَا تَسْلُكُوا وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى لِتَعْبُدُوهَا وَتَسْجُدُوا لَهَا، وَلَا تَغِيظُونِي بِعَمَلِ أَيْدِيكُمْ فَلَا أُسِيءَ إِلَيْكُمْ.٦
7 And ye have not hearkened unto Me — an affirmation of Jehovah — so as to provoke Me to anger with the work of your hands for evil to you.
فَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِتَغِيظُونِي بِعَمَلِ أَيْدِيكُمْ شَرًّا لَكُمْ.٧
8 'Therefore thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Because that ye have not obeyed My words,
«لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِكَلَامِي٨
9 Lo, I am sending, and have taken all the families of the north — an affirmation of Jehovah — even unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and have brought them in against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations round about, and have devoted them, and appointed them for an astonishment, and for a hissing, and for wastes age-during.
هَأَنَذَا أُرْسِلُ فَآخُذُ كُلَّ عَشَائِرِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَإِلَى نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرَ عَبْدِي مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، وَآتِي بِهِمْ عَلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَعَلَى كُلِّ سُكَّانِهَا وَعَلَى كُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ حَوَالَيْهَا، فَأُحَرِّمُهُمْ وَأَجْعَلُهُمْ دَهَشًا وَصَفِيرًا وَخِرَبًا أَبَدِيَّةً.٩
10 And I have destroyed from them the voice of rejoicing, and the voice of joy, voice of bridegroom and voice of bride, noise of millstones, and the light of lamps.
وَأُبِيدُ مِنْهُمْ صَوْتَ ٱلطَّرَبِ وَصَوْتَ ٱلْفَرَحِ، صَوْتَ ٱلْعَرِيسِ وَصَوْتَ ٱلْعَرُوسِ، صَوْتَ ٱلْأَرْحِيَةِ وَنُورَ ٱلسِّرَاجِ.١٠
11 And all this land hath been for a waste, for an astonishment, and these nations have served the king of Babylon seventy years.
وَتَصِيرُ كُلُّ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ خَرَابًا وَدَهَشًا، وَتَخْدِمُ هَذِهِ ٱلشُّعُوبُ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ سَبْعِينَ سَنَةً.١١
12 'And it hath come to pass, at the fulness of seventy years, I charge against the king of Babylon, and against that nation — an affirmation of Jehovah — their iniquity, and against the land of the Chaldeans, and have appointed it for desolations age-during.
«وَيَكُونُ عِنْدَ تَمَامِ ٱلسَّبْعِينَ سَنَةً أَنِّي أُعَاقِبُ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ، وَتِلْكَ ٱلْأُمَّةَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، عَلَى إِثْمِهِمْ وَأَرْضَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، وَأَجْعَلُهَا خِرَبًا أَبَدِيَّةً.١٢
13 And I have brought in on that land all My words that I have spoken against it, all that is written in this book, that Jeremiah hath prophesied concerning all the nations.
وَأَجْلِبُ عَلَى تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلَّ كَلَامِي ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهِ عَلَيْهَا، كُلَّ مَا كُتِبَ فِي هَذَا ٱلسِّفْرِ ٱلَّذِي تَنَبَّأَ بِهِ إِرْمِيَا عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ.١٣
14 For laid service on them — also them — have many nations and great kings, and I have given recompence to them according to their doing, and according to the work of their hands.
لِأَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱسْتَعْبَدَهُمْ أَيْضًا أُمَمٌ كَثِيرَةٌ وَمُلُوكٌ عِظَامٌ، فَأُجَازِيهِمْ حَسَبَ أَعْمَالِهِمْ وَحَسَبَ عَمَلِ أَيَادِيهِمْ».١٤
15 'For thus said Jehovah God of Israel unto me, Take the wine cup of this fury out of My hand, and thou hast caused all the nations to drink it unto whom I am sending thee;
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ لِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «خُذْ كَأْسَ خَمْرِ هَذَا ٱلسَّخَطِ مِنْ يَدِي، وَٱسْقِ جَمِيعَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ أُرْسِلُكَ أَنَا إِلَيْهِمْ إِيَّاهَا.١٥
16 And they have drunk, and shaken themselves and shewn themselves foolish, because of the sword that I am sending among them.
فَيَشْرَبُوا وَيَتَرَنَّحُوا وَيَتَجَنَّنُوا مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلسَّيْفِ ٱلَّذِي أُرْسِلُهُ أَنَا بَيْنَهُمْ».١٦
17 'And I take the cup out of the hand of Jehovah, and cause all the nations to drink unto whom Jehovah sent me:
فَأَخَذْتُ ٱلْكَأْسَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَسَقَيْتُ كُلَّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَرْسَلَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ.١٧
18 Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, And its kings, its heads, To give them to waste, to astonishment, To hissing, and to reviling, as [at] this day.
أُورُشَلِيمَ وَمُدُنَ يَهُوذَا وَمُلُوكَهَا وَرُؤَسَاءَهَا، لِجَعْلِهَا خَرَابًا وَدَهَشًا وَصَفِيرًا وَلَعْنَةً كَهَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ.١٨
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, And his heads, and all his people,
وَفِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكَ مِصْرَ وَعَبِيدَهُ وَرُؤَسَاءَهُ وَكُلَّ شَعْبِهِ.١٩
20 And all the mixed people, And all the kings of the land of Uz, And all the kings of the land of the Philistines, And Ashkelon, and Gazzah, and Ekron, And the remnant of Ashdod,
وَكُلَّ ٱللَّفِيفِ، وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ أَرْضِ عُوصَ، وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ أَرْضِ فِلِسْطِينَ وَأَشْقَلُونَ وَغَزَّةَ وَعَقْرُونَ وَبَقِيَّةَ أَشْدُودَ،٢٠
21 Edom, and Moab, and the sons of Ammon,
وَأَدُومَ وَمُوآبَ وَبَنِي عَمُّونَ،٢١
22 And all the kings of Tyre, And all the kings of Zidon, And the kings of the isle that [is] beyond the sea,
وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ صُورَ، وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ صِيدُونَ، وَمُلُوكِ ٱلْجَزَائِرِ ٱلَّتِي فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْبَحْرِ،٢٢
23 Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, And all cutting the corners [of the beard],
وَدَدَانَ وَتَيْمَاءَ وَبُوزَ، وَكُلَّ مَقْصُوصِي ٱلشَّعْرِ مُسْتَدِيرًا،٢٣
24 And all the kings of Arabia, And all the kings of the mixed people, Who are dwelling in the wilderness,
وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ ٱلْعَرَبِ، وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ ٱللَّفِيفِ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ،٢٤
25 And all the kings of Zimri, And all the kings of Elam, And all the kings of Media,
وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ زِمْرِي، وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ عِيلَامَ، وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ مَادِي،٢٥
26 And all the kings of the north, The near and the far off, one unto another, And all the kingdoms of the earth, That [are] on the face of the ground, And king Sheshach drinketh after them.
وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِ ٱلشِّمَالِ ٱلْقَرِيبِينَ وَٱلْبَعِيدِينَ، كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مَعَ أَخِيهِ، وَكُلَّ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَمَلِكُ شِيشَكَ يَشْرَبُ بَعْدَهُمْ.٢٦
27 And thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts God of Israel, Drink ye, yea drink abundantly, And vomit, and fall, and rise not, Because of the sword that I am sending among you.
وَتَقُولُ لَهُمْ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: ٱشْرَبُوا وَٱسْكَرُوا وَتَقَيَّأُوا وَٱسْقُطُوا وَلَا تَقُومُوا مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلسَّيْفِ ٱلَّذِي أُرْسِلُهُ أَنَا بَيْنَكُمْ.٢٧
28 And it hath come to pass, When they refuse to receive the cup out of thy hand to drink, That thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Ye do certainly drink.
وَيَكُونُ إِذَا أَبَوْا أَنْ يَأْخُذُوا ٱلْكَأْسَ مِنْ يَدِكَ لِيَشْرَبُوا، أَنَّكَ تَقُولُ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: تَشْرَبُونَ شُرْبًا.٢٨
29 For lo, in the city over which My name is called, I am beginning to do evil, And ye — ye are entirely acquitted! Ye are not acquitted, for a sword I am proclaiming, For all inhabitants of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts.
لِأَنِّي هَأَنَذَا أَبْتَدِئُ أُسِيءُ إِلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي دُعِيَ ٱسْمِي عَلَيْهَا، فَهَلْ تَتَبَرَّأُونَ أَنْتُمْ؟ لَا تَتَبَرَّأُونَ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا أَدْعُو ٱلسَّيْفَ عَلَى كُلِّ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ.٢٩
30 And thou, thou dost prophesy unto them all these words, and hast said unto them: Jehovah from the high place doth roar, And from His holy habitation giveth forth His voice, He surely roareth for His habitation, A shout as of treaders down, God answereth all the inhabitants of the land,
وَأَنْتَ فَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَيْهِمْ بِكُلِّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ، وَقُلْ لَهُمْ: ٱلرَّبُّ مِنَ ٱلْعَلَاءِ يُزَمْجِرُ، وَمِنْ مَسْكَنِ قُدْسِهِ يُطْلِقُ صَوْتَهُ، يَزْأَرُ زَئِيرًا عَلَى مَسْكَنِهِ، بِهُتَافٍ كَٱلدَّائِسِينَ يَصْرُخُ ضِدَّ كُلِّ سُكَّانِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.٣٠
31 Wasting hath come unto the end of the earth, For a controversy hath Jehovah with nations, He hath executed judgment for all flesh, The wicked! He hath given them to the sword, An affirmation of Jehovah.
بَلَغَ ٱلضَّجِيجُ إِلَى أَطْرَافِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّ لِلرَّبِّ خُصُومَةً مَعَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. هُوَ يُحَاكِمُ كُلَّ ذِي جَسَدٍ. يَدْفَعُ ٱلْأَشْرَارَ لِلسَّيْفِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.٣١
32 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Lo, evil is going out from nation to nation, And a great whirlwind is stirred up from the sides of the earth.
هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: هُوَذَا ٱلشَّرُّ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ إِلَى أُمَّةٍ، وَيَنْهَضُ نَوْءٌ عَظِيمٌ مِنْ أَطْرَافِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.٣٢
33 And the pierced of Jehovah have been in that day, From the end of the earth even unto the end of the earth, They are not lamented, nor gathered, nor buried, For dung on the face of the ground they are.
وَتَكُونُ قَتْلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ مِنْ أَقْصَاءِ ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى أَقْصَاءِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. لَا يُنْدَبُونَ وَلَا يُضَمُّونَ وَلَا يُدْفَنُونَ. يَكُونُونَ دِمْنَةً عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ».٣٣
34 Howl, ye shepherds, and cry, And roll yourselves, ye honourable of the flock, For full have been your days, For slaughtering, and [for] your scatterings, And ye have fallen as a desirable vessel.
وَلْوِلُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلرُّعَاةُ وَٱصْرُخُوا، وَتَمَرَّغُوا يَا رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْغَنَمِ، لِأَنَّ أَيَّامَكُمْ قَدْ كَمَلَتْ لِلذَّبْحِ. وَأُبَدِّدُكُمْ فَتَسْقُطُونَ كَإِنَاءٍ شَهِيٍّ.٣٤
35 And perished hath refuge from the shepherds, And escape from the honourable of the flock.
وَيَبِيدُ ٱلْمَنَاصُ عَنِ ٱلرُّعَاةِ، وَٱلنَّجَاةُ عَنْ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْغَنَمِ.٣٥
36 A voice [is] of the cry of the shepherds, And a howling of the honourable of the flock, For Jehovah is spoiling their pasture.
صَوْتُ صُرَاخِ ٱلرُّعَاةِ، وَوَلْوَلَةِ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْغَنَمِ. لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ أَهْلَكَ مَرْعَاهُمْ.٣٦
37 And the peaceable habitations have been cut down, Because of the fierceness of the anger of Jehovah.
وَبَادَتْ مَرَاعِي ٱلسَّلَامِ مِنْ أَجْلِ حُمُوِّ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ.٣٧
38 He hath forsaken, as a young lion, His covert, Surely their land hath become a desolation, Because of the oppressing fierceness, And because of the fierceness of His anger!
تَرَكَ كَشِبْلٍ عِيصَهُ، لِأَنَّ أَرْضَهُمْ صَارَتْ خَرَابًا مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلظَّالِمِ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ حُمُوِّ غَضَبِهِ.٣٨
