دوم پادشاهان 21
| مَنَسی دوازده ساله بود که پادشاه یهودا شد و پنجاه و پنج سال در اورشلیم سلطنت نمود. (اسم مادرش حفصیبه بود.) | 1 |
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to rule. He ruled Judah for 55 years from Jerusalem. His mother was Hephzibah.
| او از اعمال زشت قومهای بت‌پرستی که خداوند آنها را از کنعان بیرون رانده بود، پیروی می‌کرد و نسبت به خداوند گناه می‌ورزید. | 2 |
He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He imitated the disgusting things that were formerly done by the people of the nations that Yahweh had expelled from the land of Israel as his people advanced [through the land].
| مَنَسی معبدهای بالای تپه‌ها را که پدرش حِزِقیا خراب کرده بود، دوباره بنا نمود، مذبحهایی برای بعل درست کرد و بت شرم‌آور اشیره را همان‌طور که اَخاب، پادشاه اسرائیل درست کرده بود، دوباره ساخت. مَنَسی آفتاب و ماه و ستارگان را پرستش می‌کرد و برای آنها مذبحهایی ساخت و آنها را در حیاط خانهٔ خداوند قرار داد، یعنی در همان خانه و در اورشلیم که خداوند برای نام خود برگزیده بود. | 3 |
He commanded his workers to rebuild the shrines [for worshiping Yahweh] that his father Hezekiah had destroyed [because they were not in the place that Yahweh had said they should worship him]. He directed his workers to build altars for worshiping Baal. He made [a statue of the goddess] Asherah, like Ahab the king of Israel had done [previously]. And Manasseh worshiped [DOU] the stars.
| 4 |
He directed his workers to build altars [for worshiping foreign gods] in the temple of Yahweh, about which Yahweh had said, “It is here in Jerusalem where I want people to worship [MTY] me, forever.”
| 5 |
He directed that altars for worshiping the stars be built in both of the courtyards outside the temple.
| مَنَسی پسر خود را به عنوان قربانی سوزانید. او جادوگری و فالگیری می‌کرد و با احضارکنندگان ارواح و جادوگران مشورت می‌نمود. او با این کارهای شرارت‌آمیز، خداوند را به خشم آورد. | 6 |
He even sacrificed his own son by burning [him in a fire]. He performed rituals to practice sorcery and magic rituals. He also went to people who consulted the spirits of dead people to find out what would happen in the future. He did many things that Yahweh considered to be extremely evil, things that caused Yahweh to become very angry.
| او حتی بت شرم‌آور اشیره را در خانهٔ خداوند بر پا نمود، یعنی در همان مکانی که خداوند راجع به آن به داوود و سلیمان گفته بود: «نام خود را تا به ابد بر این خانه و بر اورشلیم، شهری که از میان شهرهای قبایل اسرائیل برای خود انتخاب کرده‌ام، خواهم نهاد. | 7 |
He placed the statue of the goddess Asherah in the temple, the place about which Yahweh had said to David and his son Solomon, “My temple will be here in Jerusalem. This is the city that I have chosen from all the territory of the twelve tribes of Israel, where I want people to worship me, forever.
| اگر قوم اسرائیل از دستورهایی که من به‌وسیلۀ خادمم موسی به آنها داده‌ام پیروی نمایند، بار دیگر هرگز ایشان را از این سرزمین که به اجداد ایشان دادم، بیرون نخواهم راند.» | 8 |
And if the Israeli people obey all my commands and all the laws that I gave to Moses, the man who served me [very well], I will not again force them to leave this land that I gave to their ancestors.”
| اما ایشان نه فقط از خداوند اطاعت نکردند، بلکه بدتر از قومهایی که خداوند آنها را از کنعان بیرون رانده بود، رفتار نمودند زیرا مَنَسی ایشان را گمراه نموده بود. | 9 |
But the people did not heed Yahweh. And Manasseh persuaded them to commit sins that are more evil than the sins that were committed by the people of the nations that Yahweh had expelled from the land as the Israeli people advanced.
| پس خداوند به‌وسیلۀ خدمتگزاران خود، انبیا چنین فرمود: | 10 |
[These are some of the things that] the prophets said many times, messages that Yahweh had given them:
| «چون مَنَسی، پادشاه یهودا این اعمال قبیح را انجام داده و حتی بدتر از اموری‌هایی که در گذشته در این سرزمین ساکن بودند، رفتار نموده و مردم یهودا را به بت‌پرستی کشانیده است؛ | 11 |
“Manasseh, the king of Judah, has done these abominable things, things that are much worse than the things that the Amor people-group did in this land long ago. He has persuaded the people of Judah to sin by [worshiping] idols.
| من نیز بر اورشلیم و یهودا چنان بلایی نازل خواهم کرد که هر که آن را بشنود وحشت کند. | 12 |
Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh, the God whom you Israeli people worship, say: I will the cause the people of Jerusalem and the rest of Judah to experience great disasters. It will be terrible, with the result that everyone who hears about it will be stunned [MTY].
| همان بلایی را سر اورشلیم می‌آورم که بر سر سامره و خاندان اَخاب آوردم. اورشلیم را از لوث وجود ساکنانش پاک می‌کنم، درست همان‌طور که ظرف را پاک کرده، می‌شویند و آن را وارونه می‌گذارند تا خشک شود. | 13 |
I will judge and punish [MET] the people of Jerusalem like I punished the family of King Ahab [of Israel]. I will (wipe Jerusalem clean/remove all the people from Jerusalem), like [MET] people wipe a plate and then turn it upside down [after they have finished eating, to show that they are now satisfied].
| بازماندگان قوم را نیز ترک خواهم گفت و ایشان را به دست دشمن خواهم سپرد تا آنها را غارت کنند، | 14 |
And I will abandon the people who remain alive, and I will allow their enemies to conquer them and steal everything valuable from their land.
| زیرا ایشان نسبت به من گناه ورزیده‌اند و از روزی که اجدادشان را از مصر بیرون آوردم تا به امروز مرا خشمگین نموده‌اند.» | 15 |
I will do this because my people have done things that I consider to be very evil, things which have caused me to become very angry. They have caused me to become angry continually, ever since their ancestors left Egypt.”
| مَنَسی علاوه بر این که اهالی یهودا را به بت‌پرستی کشانده، باعث شد آنها نسبت به خداوند گناه ورزند، افراد بی‌گناه بی‌شماری را نیز کشت و اورشلیم را با خون آنها رنگین ساخت. | 16 |
Manasseh [commanded his officials to] kill many innocent people in Jerusalem, with the result that their blood flowed in the streets. He did this in addition to persuading the people of Judah to sin against Yahweh [by worshiping idols].
| شرح بقیهٔ رویدادهای دوران سلطنت مَنَسی و اعمال گناه‌آلود او در کتاب تاریخ پادشاهان یهودا نوشته شده است. | 17 |
[If you want to know more about] all the things that Manasseh did, they are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
| وقتی مَنَسی مرد او را در باغ کاخ خودش که عوزا نام داشت دفن کردند و پسرش آمون به جای وی پادشاه شد. | 18 |
Manasseh died [EUP] and was buried in the garden outside his palace, the garden that Uzza [had made]. Then Manasseh’s son Amon became the king.
| آمون بیست و دو ساله بود که پادشاه یهودا شد و دو سال در اورشلیم سلطنت کرد. (مادرش مِشُلِمِت، دختر حاروص از اهالی یطبه بود.) | 19 |
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king. He ruled Judah from Jerusalem for [only] two years. His mother’s name was Meshullemeth. She was from Jotbah [town], and was the granddaughter of Haruz.
| او نیز مانند پدرش مَنَسی نسبت به خداوند گناه ورزید. | 20 |
Amon did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, like his father Manasseh had done.
| آمون از تمام راههای بد پدرش پیروی می‌نمود و بتهای پدرش را می‌پرستید. | 21 |
He imitated the behavior of his father, and he worshiped the same idols that his father had worshiped [DOU].
| او از خداوند، خدای اجدادش برگشت و به دستورهای خداوند عمل نکرد. | 22 |
He abandoned Yahweh, the God whom his ancestors [had worshiped], and did not behave as Yahweh wanted him to.
| سرانجام افرادش بر ضد او توطئه چیدند و او را در کاخ سلطنتی‌اش به قتل رساندند. | 23 |
Then one day some of his officials plotted to kill him. They assassinated him in the palace.
| مردم قاتلان آمون را کشتند و پسرش یوشیا را به جای او بر تخت سلطنت نشاندند. | 24 |
But then the people of Judah killed all those who had assassinated King Amon, and they appointed his son Josiah to be their king.
| شرح بقیه رویدادهای دوران سلطنت آمون در کتاب تاریخ پادشاهان یهودا ثبت گردیده است. | 25 |
[If you want to read about] [RHQ] the other things that Amon did, they are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
| او را در آرامگاه باغ عوزا دفن کردند و پسرش یوشیا به جای او پادشاه شد. | 26 |
Amon was also buried in the tomb in the garden that Uzza [had made]. Then Amon’s son Josiah became the king.
