Micah 5
1 Now gather thyself together, O daughter of troops, A siege he hath laid against us, With a rod they smite on the cheek the judge of Israel.
| الآنَ احْشُدِي جُيُوشَكِ يَا مَدِينَةَ الْجُيُوشِ، لأَنَّ الْعَدُوَّ يُقِيمُ عَلَيْكِ حِصَاراً، وَسَيَضْرِبُ خَدَّ قَاضِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِالْقَضِيبِ. | ١ |
2 And thou, Beth-Lehem Ephratah, Little to be among the chiefs of Judah! From thee to Me he cometh forth — to be ruler in Israel, And his comings forth [are] of old, From the days of antiquity.
| أَمَّا أَنْتِ يَا بَيْتَ لَحْمِ أَفْرَاتَةَ، مَعَ أَنَّكِ قَرْيَةٌ صَغِيرَةٌ بَيْنَ أُلُوفِ قُرَى يَهُوذَا، إِلّا أَنَّ مِنْكِ يَخْرُجُ لِي مَنْ يُصْبِحُ مَلِكاً فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَأَصْلُهُ مُنْذُ الْقَدِيمِ، مُنْذُ الأَزَلِ. | ٢ |
3 Therefore he doth give them out till the time She who bringeth forth hath brought forth, And the remnant of his brethren return to the sons of Israel.
| لِذَلِكَ يُسَلِّمُ الرَّبُّ شَعْبَهُ إِلَى أَعْدَائِهِمْ إِلَى أَنْ تَلِدَ مَنْ تُقَاسِي مِنَ الْمَخَاضِ، عِنْدَئِذٍ تَرْجِعُ بَقِيَّةُ إِخْوَتِهِ مِنَ السَّبْيِ إِلَى شَعْبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣ |
4 And he hath stood and delighted in the strength of Jehovah, In the excellency of the name of Jehovah his God, And they have remained, For now he is great unto the ends of earth.
| فَيَقُومُ وَيَرْعَى شَعْبَهُ بِقُوَّةِ الرَّبِّ وَبِجَلالِ اسْمِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ، فَيَعِيشُونَ بِأَمْنٍ، لأَنَّ عَظَمَتَهُ تَمْتَدُّ إِلَى أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ. | ٤ |
5 And this [one] hath been peace, Asshur! when he doth come into our land, And when he doth tread in our palaces, We have raised against him seven shepherds, And eight anointed of man.
| وَيُصْبِحُ الرَّبُّ سَلامَهُمْ، إِذْ حِينَ يَزْحَفُ الأَشُّورِيُّونَ إِلَى أَرْضِنَا وَيَطَأُونَ تُرَابَنَا، فَإِنَّنَا نُثِيرُ عَلَيْهِمْ سَبْعَةَ رُعَاةٍ وَثَمَانِيَةَ أُمَرَاءَ مِنَ النَّاسِ، | ٥ |
6 And they have afflicted the land of Asshur with the sword, And the land of Nimrod at its openings, And he hath delivered from Asshur when he doth come into our land, And when he treadeth in our borders.
| فَيَحْكُمُونَ بِلادَ أَشُّورَ بِقُوَّةِ السَّيْفِ، وَيَقْتَحِمُونَ بَوَّابَاتِ أَرْضِ نِمْرُودَ، وَيُنْقِذُنَا (اللهُ) مِنَ الأَشُّورِيِّينَ عِنْدَمَا يَزْحَفُونَ إِلَى أَرْضِنَا وَيَطَأُونَ تُخُومَنَا. | ٦ |
7 And the remnant of Jacob hath been in the midst of many peoples, As dew from Jehovah — as showers on the herb, That waiteth not for man, nor stayeth for the sons of men.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ تَغْدُو بَقِيَّةُ ذُرِّيَّةِ يَعْقُوبَ بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ الْكَثِيرَةِ كَنَدىً مِنْ لَدُنِ الرَّبِّ، كَالْمَطَرِ الْوَابِلِ عَلَى الْعُشْبِ الَّذِي لَا يَتَوَانَى مِنْ أَجْلِ النَّاسِ أَوْ يَرْجُو أَبْنَاءَ الْبَشَرِ. | ٧ |
8 Yea, the remnant of Jacob hath been among nations, In the midst of many peoples, As a lion among beasts of a forest, As a young lion among ranks of a flock, Which if it hath passed through, Hath both trodden down and hath torn, And there is no deliverer.
| وَتَكُونُ بَقِيَّةُ ذُرِّيَّةِ يَعْقُوبَ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ الْكَثِيرَةِ كَأَسَدٍ بَيْنَ وُحُوشِ الْغَابَةِ، أَوْ كَشِبْلٍ بَيْنَ قُطْعَانِ الْغَنَمِ، الَّذِي إِنِ اقْتَحَمَ يَدُوسُ وَيَفْتَرِسُ وَلَيْسَ مِنْ مُنْقِذٍ. | ٨ |
9 High is thy hand above thine adversaries, And all thine enemies are cut off.
| فَتَتَعَاظَمُ يَا شَعْبِي عَلَى مُبْغِضِيكَ، وَيَبِيدُ جَمِيعُ أَعْدَائِكَ. | ٩ |
10 And it hath come to pass in that day, An affirmation of Jehovah, I have cut off thy horses from thy midst, And I have destroyed thy chariots,
| وَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَسْتَأْصِلُ خُيُولَكُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِكُمْ وَأُدَمِّرُ مَرْكَبَاتِ حَرْبِكُمْ، | ١٠ |
11 And I have cut off the cities of thy land, And I have thrown down all thy fortresses,
| وَأُخَرِّبُ مُدُنَكُمْ وَأَهْدِمُ جَمِيعَ حُصُونِكُمْ، | ١١ |
12 And have cut off sorcerers out of thy hand, And observers of clouds thou hast none.
| وَأَقْضِي عَلَى السِّحْرِ فِي دِيَارِكُمْ وَلا يَبْقَى لَكُمْ عَرَّافُونَ، | ١٢ |
13 And I have cut off thy graven images, And thy standing-pillars out of thy midst, And thou dost not bow thyself any more To the work of thy hands.
| وَأَنْتَزِعُ تَمَاثِيلَكُمْ وَأَنْصَابَكُمْ مِنْ وَسَطِكُمْ، فَلا تَعُودُونَ تَسْجُدُونَ لأَصْنَامٍ مِنْ صُنْعِ أَيْدِيكُمْ. | ١٣ |
14 And I have plucked up thy shrines out of thy midst, And I have destroyed thine enemies.
| وَأُفْنِي عَشْتَارُوثَ مِنْ بَيْنِكُمْ، وَأَهْدِمُ مُدُنَكُمْ، | ١٤ |
15 And I have done vengeance in anger and in fury, With the nations who have not hearkened!
| وَبِغَضَبٍ وَسَخَطٍ أَنْتَقِمُ مِنَ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي لَمْ تُطِعْنِي. | ١٥ |
