صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 6
| وَكَانَ تَابُوتُ ٱللهِ فِي بِلَادِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ سَبْعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ. | ١ 1 |
And the ark of Jehovah was in the country of the Philistines seven months.
| فَدَعَا ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ وَٱلْعَرَّافِينَ قَائِلِينَ: «مَاذَا نَعْمَلُ بِتَابُوتِ ٱلرَّبِّ؟ أَخْبِرُونَا بِمَاذَا نُرْسِلُهُ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ». | ٢ 2 |
And the Philistines called for the priests and the psychics, saying, What shall we do with the ark of Jehovah? Show us with what we shall sent it to its place.
| فَقَالُوا: «إِذَا أَرْسَلْتُمْ تَابُوتَ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَلَا تُرْسِلُوهُ فَارِغًا، بَلْ رُدُّوا لَهُ قُرْبَانَ إِثْمٍ. حِينَئِذٍ تَشْفَوْنَ وَيُعْلَمُ عِنْدَكُمْ لِمَاذَا لَا تَرْتَفِعُ يَدُهُ عَنْكُمْ». | ٣ 3 |
And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it empty, but by all means return for him a trespass offering. Then ye shall be healed, and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed from you.
| فَقَالُوا: «وَمَا هُوَ قُرْبَانُ ٱلْإِثْمِ ٱلَّذِي نَرُدُّهُ لَهُ؟» فَقَالُوا: «حَسَبَ عَدَدِ أَقْطَابِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ: خَمْسَةَ بَوَاسِيرَ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَخَمْسَةَ فِيرَانٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ. لِأَنَّ ٱلضَّرْبَةَ وَاحِدَةٌ عَلَيْكُمْ جَمِيعًا وَعَلَى أَقْطَابِكُمْ. | ٤ 4 |
Then they said, What shall be the trespass offering which we shall return to him? And they said, Five golden tumors, and five golden mice, according to the number of the lords of the Philistines, for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.
| وَٱصْنَعُوا تَمَاثِيلَ بَوَاسِيرِكُمْ وَتَمَاثِيلَ فِيرَانِكُمُ ٱلَّتِي تُفْسِدُ ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَأَعْطُوا إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَجْدًا لَعَلَّهُ يُخَفِّفُ يَدَهُ عَنْكُمْ وَعَنْ آلِهَتِكُمْ وَعَنْ أَرْضِكُمْ. | ٥ 5 |
Therefore ye shall make images of your tumors, and images of your mice that mar the land. And ye shall give glory to the God of Israel. Perhaps he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.
| وَلِمَاذَا تُغْلِظُونَ قُلُوبَكُمْ كَمَا أَغْلَظَ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ وَفِرْعَوْنُ قُلُوبَهُمْ؟ أَلَيْسَ عَلَى مَا فَعَلَ بِهِمْ أَطْلَقُوهُمْ فَذَهَبُوا؟ | ٦ 6 |
Why then do ye harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When he had wrought wonderfully among them, did they not let the people go, and they departed?
| فَٱلْآنَ خُذُوا وَٱعْمَلُوا عَجَلَةً وَاحِدَةً جَدِيدَةً وَبَقَرَتَيْنِ مُرْضِعَتَيْنِ لَمْ يَعْلُهُمَا نِيرٌ، وَٱرْبِطُوا ٱلْبَقَرَتَيْنِ إِلَى ٱلْعَجَلَةِ، وَأَرْجِعُوا وَلَدَيْهِمَا عَنْهُمَا إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ. | ٧ 7 |
Now therefore take and prepare for you a new cart, and two milk cows on which there has come no yoke. And tie the cows to the cart, and bring their calves home from them.
| وَخُذُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَٱجْعَلُوهُ عَلَى ٱلْعَجَلَةِ، وَضَعُوا أَمْتِعَةَ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّتِي تَرُدُّونَهَا لَهُ قُرْبَانَ إِثْمٍ فِي صُنْدُوقٍ بِجَانِبِهِ وَأَطْلِقُوهُ فَيَذْهَبَ. | ٨ 8 |
And take the ark of Jehovah, and lay it upon the cart. And put the jewels of gold, which ye return to him for a trespass offering, in a coffer by the side of it, and send it away, that it may go.
| وَٱنْظُرُوا، فَإِنْ صَعِدَ فِي طَرِيقِ تُخْمِهِ إِلَى بَيْتَشَمْسَ فَإِنَّهُ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي فَعَلَ بِنَا هَذَا ٱلشَّرَّ ٱلْعَظِيمَ. وَإِلَّا فَنَعْلَمُ أَنْ يَدَهُ لَمْ تَضْرِبْنَا. كَانَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْنَا عَرَضًا». | ٩ 9 |
And watch. If it goes up by the way of its own border to Beth-shemesh, then he has done to us this great evil, but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that smote us; it was a chance that happened to us.
| فَفَعَلَ ٱلرِّجَالُ كَذَلِكَ، وَأَخَذُوا بَقَرَتَيْنِ مُرْضِعَتَيْنِ وَرَبَطُوهُمَا إِلَى ٱلْعَجَلَةِ، وَحَبَسُوا وَلَدَيْهِمَا فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ، | ١٠ 10 |
And the men did so, and took two milk cows, and tied them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home.
| وَوَضَعُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى ٱلْعَجَلَةِ مَعَ ٱلصُّنْدُوقِ وَفِيرَانِ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَتَمَاثِيلِ بَوَاسِيرِهِمْ. | ١١ 11 |
And they put the ark of Jehovah upon the cart, and the coffer with the mice of gold and the images of their tumors.
| فَٱسْتَقَامَتِ ٱلْبَقَرَتَانِ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ إِلَى طَرِيقِ بَيْتَشَمْسَ، وَكَانَتَا تَسِيرَانِ فِي سِكَّةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَتَجْأَرَانِ، وَلَمْ تَمِيلَا يَمِينًا وَلَا شِمَالًا، وَأَقْطَابُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ يَسِيرُونَ وَرَاءَهُمَا إِلَى تُخْمِ بَيْتَشَمْسَ. | ١٢ 12 |
And the cows took the straight way by the way to Beth-shemesh. They went along the highway, lowing as they went, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left. And the lords of the Philistines went behind them to the border of Beth-shemesh.
| وَكَانَ أَهْلُ بَيْتَشَمْسَ يَحْصُدُونَ حَصَادَ ٱلْحِنْطَةِ فِي ٱلْوَادِي، فَرَفَعُوا أَعْيُنَهُمْ وَرَأَوْا ٱلتَّابُوتَ وَفَرِحُوا بِرُؤْيَتِهِ. | ١٣ 13 |
And those of Beth-shemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley. And they lifted up their eyes, and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.
| فَأَتَتِ ٱلْعَجَلَةُ إِلَى حَقْلِ يَهُوشَعَ ٱلْبَيْتَشَمْسِيِّ وَوَقَفَتْ هُنَاكَ. وَهُنَاكَ حَجَرٌ كَبِيرٌ. فَشَقَّقُوا خَشَبَ ٱلْعَجَلَةِ وَأَصْعَدُوا ٱلْبَقَرَتَيْنِ مُحْرَقَةً لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٤ 14 |
And the cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite, and stood there where there was a great stone. And they split the wood of the cart, and offered up the cows for a burnt offering to Jehovah.
| فَأَنْزَلَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ تَابُوتَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَٱلصُّنْدُوقَ ٱلَّذِي مَعَهُ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ أَمْتِعَةُ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَوَضَعُوهُمَا عَلَى ٱلْحَجَرِ ٱلْكَبِيرِ. وَأَصْعَدَ أَهْلُ بَيْتَشَمْسَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ وَذَبَحُوا ذَبَائِحَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٥ 15 |
And the Levites took down the ark of Jehovah, and the coffer that was with it, in which the jewels of gold were, and put them on the great stone. And the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day to Jehovah.
| فَرَأَى أَقْطَابُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ ٱلْخَمْسَةُ وَرَجَعُوا إِلَى عَقْرُونَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And when the five lords of the Philistines had seen it, they returned to Ekron the same day.
| وَهَذِهِ هِيَ بَوَاسِيرُ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّتِي رَدَّهَا ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ قُرْبَانَ إِثْمٍ لِلرَّبِّ: وَاحِدٌ لِأَشْدُودَ، وَوَاحِدٌ لِغَزَّةَ، وَوَاحِدٌ لِأَشْقَلُونَ، وَوَاحِدٌ لِجَتَّ، وَوَاحِدٌ لِعَقْرُونَ. | ١٧ 17 |
And these are the golden tumors which the Philistines returned for a trespass offering to Jehovah: for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Ashkelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one.
| وَفِيرَانُ ٱلذَّهَبِ بِعَدَدِ جَمِيعِ مُدُنِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ لِلْخَمْسَةِ ٱلْأَقْطَابِ مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلْمُحَصَّنَةِ إِلَى قَرْيَةِ ٱلصَّحْرَاءِ. وَشَاهِدٌ هُوَ ٱلْحَجَرُ ٱلْكَبِيرُ ٱلَّذِي وَضَعُوا عَلَيْهِ تَابُوتَ ٱلرَّبِّ. هُوَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ فِي حَقْلِ يَهُوشَعَ ٱلْبَيْتِشَمْسِيِّ. | ١٨ 18 |
And the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both of fortified cities and of country villages, even to the great stone on which they set down the ark of Jehovah, which stone remains to this day in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite.
| وَضَرَبَ أَهْلَ بَيْتَشَمْسَ لِأَنَّهُمْ نَظَرُوا إِلَى تَابُوتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. وَضَرَبَ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ خَمْسِينَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ وَسَبْعِينَ رَجُلًا. فَنَاحَ ٱلشَّعْبُ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ضَرَبَ ٱلشَّعْبَ ضَرْبَةً عَظِيمَةً. | ١٩ 19 |
And he smote of the men of Beth-shemesh, because they had looked into the ark of Jehovah. He smote of the people fifty thousand and seventy men. And the people mourned, because Jehovah had smitten the people with a great slaughter.
| وَقَالَ أَهْلُ بَيْتَشَمْسَ: «مَنْ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَقِفَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْإِلَهِ ٱلْقُدُّوسِ هَذَا؟ وَإِلَى مَنْ يَصْعَدُ عَنَّا؟» | ٢٠ 20 |
And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to stand before Jehovah, this holy God? And to whom shall he go up from us?
| وَأَرْسَلُوا رُسُلًا إِلَى سُكَّانِ قَرْيَةِ يَعَارِيمَ قَائِلِينَ: «قَدْ رَدَّ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ تَابُوتَ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَٱنْزِلُوا وَأَصْعِدُوهُ إِلَيْكُمْ». | ٢١ 21 |
And they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kiriath-jearim, saying, The Philistines have brought back the ark of Jehovah. Come ye down, and fetch it up to you.
