< ٢ أخبار 24 >
كَانَ يُوآشُ ٱبْنَ سَبْعِ سِنِينَ حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ ظَبْيَةُ مِنْ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ١ 1 |
Joas was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Sabia of Bersabee.
وَعَمِلَ يُوآشُ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ. | ٢ 2 |
And Joas did that which right in the sight of the Lord all the days of Jodae the priest.
وَٱتَّخَذَ يَهُويَادَاعُ لَهُ ٱمْرَأَتَيْنِ فَوَلَدَ بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ. | ٣ 3 |
And Jodae took to himself two wives, and they bore sons and daughters.
وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِ يُوآشَ أَنْ يُجَدِّدَ بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٤ 4 |
And it came to pass afterward that it came into the heart of Joas to repair the house of the Lord.
فَجَمَعَ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱخْرُجُوا إِلَى مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا وَٱجْمَعُوا مِنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِضَّةً لِأَجْلِ تَرْمِيمِ بَيْتِ إِلَهِكُمْ مِنْ سَنَةٍ إِلَى سَنَةٍ، وَبَادِرُوا أَنْتُمْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ». فَلَمْ يُبَادِرِ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ. | ٥ 5 |
And he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out into the cities of Juda, and collect money of all Israel to repair the house of the Lord from year to year, and make haste to speak [of it]. But the Levites hasted not.
فَدَعَا ٱلْمَلِكُ يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلرَّأْسَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَطْلُبْ مِنَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ أَنْ يَأْتُوا مِنْ يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ بِجِزْيَةِ مُوسَى عَبْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَجَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِخَيْمَةِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ؟ | ٦ 6 |
And king Joas called Jodae the chief, and said to him, Why hast thou not looked after the Levites, so that they should bring from Juda and Jerusalem that which was prescribed by Moses the man of God, when he assembled Israel at the tabernacle of witness?
لِأَنَّ بَنِي عَثَلْيَا ٱلْخَبِيثَةِ قَدْ هَدَمُوا بَيْتَ ٱللهِ، وَصَيَّرُوا كُلَّ أَقْدَاسِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِلْبَعْلِيمِ». | ٧ 7 |
For Gotholia was a transgressor, and her sons tore down the house of God; for they offered the holy things of the house of the Lord to Baalim.
وَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فَعَمِلُوا صُنْدُوقًا وَجَعَلُوهُ فِي بَابِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ خَارِجًا، | ٨ 8 |
And the king said, Let a box be made, and let it be put at the gate of the house of the Lord without.
وَنَادَوْا فِي يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ بِأَنْ يَأْتُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ بِجِزْيَةِ مُوسَى عَبْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْمَفْرُوضَةِ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٩ 9 |
And let [men] proclaim in Juda an in Jerusalem, that [the people] should bring to the Lord, as Moses the servant of God spoke concerning Israel in the wilderness.
فَفَرِحَ كُلُّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَأَدْخَلُوا وَأَلْقَوْا فِي ٱلصُّنْدُوقِ حَتَّى ٱمْتَلَأَ. | ١٠ 10 |
And all the princes and all the people gave, and brought in, and cast into the box until it was filled.
وَحِينَمَا كَانَ يُؤْتَى بِٱلصُّنْدُوقِ إِلَى وَكَالَةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ بِيَدِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ، عِنْدَمَا يَرَوْنَ أَنَّ ٱلْفِضَّةَ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ، كَانَ يَأْتِي كَاتِبُ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَوَكِيلُ ٱلْكَاهِنِ ٱلرَّأْسِ وَيُفْرِغَانِ ٱلصُّنْدُوقَ، ثُمَّ يَحْمِلَانِهِ وَيَرُدَّانِهِ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ. هَكَذَا كَانُوا يَفْعَلُونَ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا، حَتَّى جَمَعُوا فِضَّةً بِكَثْرَةٍ. | ١١ 11 |
And it came to pass, when they brought in the box to the officers of the king by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that the money was more than sufficient, then came the king's scribe, and the officer of the high priest, and emptied the box, and restored it to its place. Thus they did day by day, and collected much money.
وَدَفَعَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ وَيَهُويَادَاعُ لِعَامِلِي شُغْلِ خِدْمَةِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَكَانُوا يَسْتَأْجِرُونَ نَحَّاتِينَ وَنَجَّارِينَ لِتَجْدِيدِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلِلْعَامِلِينَ فِي ٱلْحَدِيدِ وَٱلنُّحَاسِ أَيْضًا لِتَرْمِيمِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١٢ 12 |
And the king and Jodae the priest gave it to the workmen employed in the service of the house of the Lord, and they hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the Lord, also smiths and braziers to repair the house of the Lord.
فَعَمِلَ عَامِلُو ٱلشُّغْلِ وَنَجَحَ ٱلْعَمَلُ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ، وَأَقَامُوا بَيْتَ ٱللهِ عَلَى رَسْمِهِ وَثَبَّتُوهُ. | ١٣ 13 |
And the workmen wrought, and the works prospered in their hands, and they established the house of the Lord on its foundation, and strengthened [it].
وَلَمَّا أَكْمَلُوا أَتَوْا إِلَى مَا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَيَهُويَادَاعَ بِبَقِيَّةِ ٱلْفِضَّةِ وَعَمِلُوهَا آنِيَةً لِبَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، آنِيَةَ خِدْمَةٍ وَإِصْعَادٍ وَصُحُونًا وَآنِيَةَ ذَهَبٍ وَفِضَّةٍ. وَكَانُوا يُصْعِدُونَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ دَائِمًا كُلَّ أَيَّامِ يَهُويَادَاعَ. | ١٤ 14 |
And when they had finished [it], they brought to the king and to Jodae the remainder of the money, and they made vessels for the house of the Lord, vessels of service for whole-burnt-offerings, and gold and silver [censers]: and they offered up whole-burnt-offerings in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Jodae.
وَشَاخَ يَهُويَادَاعُ وَشَبِعَ مِنَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ وَمَاتَ. كَانَ ٱبْنَ مِئَةٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً عِنْدَ وَفَاتِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
And Jodae grew old, being full of days, and he died, being a hundred and thirty years old at his death.
فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ مَعَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ لِأَنَّهُ عَمِلَ خَيْرًا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمَعَ ٱللهِ وَبَيْتِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And they buried him with the kings in the city of David, because he had dealt well with Israel, and with God and his house.
وَبَعْدَ مَوْتِ يَهُويَادَاعَ جَاءَ رُؤَسَاءُ يَهُوذَا وَسَجَدُوا لِلْمَلِكِ. حِينَئِذٍ سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لَهُمْ. | ١٧ 17 |
And it came to pass after the death of Jodae, [that] the princes of Juda went in, and did obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened to them.
وَتَرَكُوا بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ آبَائِهِمْ وَعَبَدُوا ٱلسَّوَارِيَ وَٱلْأَصْنَامَ، فَكَانَ غَضَبٌ عَلَى يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ لِأَجْلِ إِثْمِهِمْ هَذَا. | ١٨ 18 |
And they forsook the house of the Lord God of their fathers, and served the Astartes and idols: and there was wrath upon Juda and Jerusalem in that day.
وَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنْبِيَاءَ لِإِرْجَاعِهِمْ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ، وَأَشْهَدُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ يُصْغُوا. | ١٩ 19 |
yet he sent prophets to them, to turn them to the Lord; but they hearkened not: and he testified to them, but they obeyed not.
وَلَبِسَ رُوحُ ٱللهِ زَكَرِيَّا بْنَ يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ فَوَقَفَ فَوْقَ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱللهُ: لِمَاذَا تَتَعَدَّوْنَ وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ فَلَا تُفْلِحُونَ؟ لِأَنَّكُمْ تَرَكْتُمُ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ تَرَكَكُمْ». | ٢٠ 20 |
And the Spirit of God came upon Azarias the son of Jodae the priest, and he stood up above the people, and said, Thus saith the Lord, Why do ye transgress the commandments of the Lord? so shall ye not prosper; for ye have forsaken the Lord, and he will forsake you.
فَفَتَنُوا عَلَيْهِ وَرَجَمُوهُ بِحِجَارَةٍ بِأَمْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي دَارِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٢١ 21 |
And they conspired against him, and stone him by command of king Joas in the court of the Lord's house.
وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ يُوآشُ ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْمَعْرُوفَ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَهُ يَهُويَادَاعُ أَبُوهُ مَعَهُ، بَلْ قَتَلَ ٱبْنَهُ. وَعِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ قَالَ: «ٱلرَّبُّ يَنْظُرُ وَيُطَالِبُ». | ٢٢ 22 |
So Joas remembered not the kindness which his father Jodae had exercised towards him, but slew his son. And as he died, he said, The Lord look upon [it], and judge.
وَفِي مَدَارِ ٱلسَّنَةِ صَعِدَ عَلَيْهِ جَيْشُ أَرَامَ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ وَأَهْلَكُوا كُلَّ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَجَمِيعَ غَنِيمَتِهِمْ أَرْسَلُوهَا إِلَى مَلِكِ دِمَشْقَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And it came to pass after the end of the year, [that] the host of Syria went up against him, and came against Juda and Jerusalem: and they slew all the chiefs of the people among the people, and all their spoils they sent to the king of Damascus.
لِأَنَّ جَيْشَ أَرَامَ جَاءَ بِشِرْذِمَةٍ قَلِيلَةٍ، وَدَفَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَدِهِمْ جَيْشًا كَثِيرًا جِدًّا لِأَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ آبَائِهِمْ. فَأَجْرَوْا قَضَاءً عَلَى يُوآشَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
For the army of Syria came with few men, yet God gave into their hands a very large army, because they had forsaken the God of their fathers; and he brought judgments on Joas.
وَعِنْدَ ذَهَابِهِمْ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوهُ بِأَمْرَاضٍ كَثِيرَةٍ، فَتَنَ عَلَيْهِ عَبِيدُهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ دِمَاءِ بَنِي يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ، وَقَتَلُوهُ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ فَمَاتَ. فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، وَلَمْ يَدْفِنُوهُ فِي قُبُورِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And after they had departed from him, when they had left him in sore diseases, then his servants conspired against him because of the blood of the son of Jodae the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died, and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchre of the kings.
وَهَذَانِ هُمَا ٱلْفَاتِنَانِ عَلَيْهِ: زَابَادُ بْنُ شِمْعَةَ ٱلْعَمُّونِيَّةِ، وَيَهُوزَابَادُ بْنُ شِمْرِيتَ ٱلْمُوآبِيَّةِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And they that conspired against him were Zabed the son of Samaath the Ammanite, and Jozabed the son of Samareth the Moabite.
وَأَمَّا بَنُوهُ وَكَثْرَةُ مَا حُمِلَ عَلَيْهِ وَمَرَمَّةُ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ، هَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي مِدْرَسِ سِفْرِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ. وَمَلَكَ أَمَصْيَا ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ | ٢٧ 27 |
And all his sons, and the five came to him: and the other [matters], behold, they are written in the book of the kings. And Amasias his son reigned in his stead.
