وَأَخَذَ كُلُّ شَعْبِ يَهُوذَا عُزِّيَّا وَهُوَ ٱبْنُ سِتَّ عَشَرَةَ سَنَةً وَمَلَّكُوهُ عِوَضًا عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَمَصْيَا. ١ 1
All the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in the place of his father Amaziah.
هُوَ بَنَى أَيْلَةَ وَرَدَّهَا لِيَهُوذَا بَعْدَ ٱضْطِجَاعِ ٱلْمَلِكِ مَعَ آبَائِهِ. ٢ 2
He built Eloth and restored it to Judah. After that the king slept with his fathers.
كَانَ عُزِّيَّا ٱبْنَ سِتَّ عَشَرَةَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ ٱثْنَتَيْنِ وَخَمْسِينَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ يَكُلْيَا مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ. ٣ 3
Uzziah was sixteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jechiliah, of Jerusalem.
وَعَمِلَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا عَمِلَ أَمَصْيَا أَبُوهُ. ٤ 4
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.
وَكَانَ يَطْلُبُ ٱللهَ فِي أَيَّامِ زَكَرِيَّا ٱلْفَاهِمِ بِمَنَاظِرِ ٱللهِ. وَفِي أَيَّامِ طَلَبِهِ ٱلرَّبَّ أَنْجَحَهُ ٱللهُ. ٥ 5
He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the vision of God; and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him prosper.
وَخَرَجَ وَحَارَبَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَهَدَمَ سُورَ جَتَّ وَسُورَ يَبْنَةَ وَسُورَ أَشْدُودَ، وَبَنَى مُدُنًا فِي أَرْضِ أَشْدُودَ وَٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. ٦ 6
He went out and fought against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities in the country of Ashdod, and among the Philistines.
وَسَاعَدَهُ ٱللهُ عَلَى ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَعَلَى ٱلْعَرَبِ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي جُورِ بَعْلَ وَٱلْمَعُونِيِّينَ. ٧ 7
God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians who lived in Gur Baal, and the Meunim.
وَأَعْطَى ٱلْعَمُّونِيُّونَ عُزِّيَّا هَدَايَا، وَٱمْتَدَّ ٱسْمُهُ إِلَى مَدْخَلِ مِصْرَ لِأَنَّهُ تَشَدَّدَ جِدًّا. ٨ 8
The Ammonites gave tribute to Uzziah. His name spread abroad even to the entrance of Egypt, for he grew exceedingly strong.
وَبَنَى عُزِّيَّا أَبْرَاجًا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ عِنْدَ بَابِ ٱلزَّاوِيَةِ وَعِنْدَ بَابِ ٱلْوَادِي وَعِنْدَ ٱلزَّاوِيَةِ وَحَصَّنَهَا. ٩ 9
Moreover Uzziah built towers in Jerusalem at the corner gate, at the valley gate, and at the turning of the wall, and fortified them.
وَبَنَى أَبْرَاجًا فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَحَفَرَ آبَارًا كَثِيرَةً لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ لَهُ مَاشِيَةٌ كَثِيرَةٌ فِي ٱلسَّاحِلِ وَٱلسَّهْلِ، وَفَلَاّحُونَ وَكَرَّامُونَ فِي ٱلْجِبَالِ وَفِي ٱلْكَرْمَلِ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْفِلَاحَةَ. ١٠ 10
He built towers in the wilderness, and dug out many cisterns, for he had much livestock, both in the lowlands and in the plains. He had farmers and vineyard keepers in the mountains and in the fruitful fields, for he loved farming.
وَكَانَ لِعُزِّيَّا جَيْشٌ مِنَ ٱلْمُقَاتِلِينَ يَخْرُجُونَ لِلْحَرْبِ أَحْزَابًا حَسَبَ عَدَدِ إِحْصَائِهِمْ عَنْ يَدِ يَعِيئِيلَ ٱلْكَاتِبِ وَمَعَسِيَا ٱلْعَرِيفِ تَحْتَ يَدِ حَنَنْيَّا وَاحِدٍ مِنْ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. ١١ 11
Moreover Uzziah had an army of fighting men who went out to war by bands, according to the number of their reckoning made by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the officer, under the hand of Hananiah, one of the king’s captains.
كُلُّ عَدَدِ رُؤُوسِ ٱلْآبَاءِ مِنْ جَبَابِرَةِ ٱلْبَأْسِ أَلْفَانِ وَسِتُّ مِئَةٍ. ١٢ 12
The whole number of the heads of fathers’ households, even the mighty men of valor, was two thousand six hundred.
وَتَحْتَ يَدِهِمْ جَيْشُ جُنُودٍ ثَلَاثُ مِئَةِ أَلْفٍ وَسَبْعَةُ آلَافٍ وَخَمْسُ مِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْمُقَاتِلِينَ بِقُوَّةٍ شَدِيدَةٍ لِمُسَاعَدَةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ عَلَى ٱلْعَدُوِّ. ١٣ 13
Under their hand was an army, three hundred seven thousand five hundred, who made war with mighty power, to help the king against the enemy.
وَهَيَّأَ لَهُمْ عُزِّيَّا، لِكُلِّ ٱلْجَيْشِ، أَتْرَاسًا وَرِمَاحًا وَخُوَذًا وَدُرُوعًا وَقِسِيًّا وَحِجَارَةَ مَقَالِيعَ. ١٤ 14
Uzziah prepared for them, even for all the army, shields, spears, helmets, coats of mail, bows, and stones for slinging.
وَعَمِلَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ مَنْجَنِيقَاتٍ ٱخْتِرَاعَ مُخْتَرِعِينَ لِتَكُونَ عَلَى ٱلْأَبْرَاجِ وَعَلَى ٱلزَّوَايَا، لِتُرْمَى بِهَا ٱلسِّهَامُ وَٱلْحِجَارَةُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ. وَٱمْتَدَّ ٱسْمُهُ إِلَى بَعِيدٍ إِذْ عَجِبَتْ مُسَاعَدَتُهُ حَتَّى تَشَدَّدَ. ١٥ 15
In Jerusalem, he made devices, invented by skillful men, to be on the towers and on the battlements, with which to shoot arrows and great stones. His name spread far abroad, because he was marvelously helped until he was strong.
وَلَمَّا تَشَدَّدَ ٱرْتَفَعَ قَلْبُهُ إِلَى ٱلْهَلَاكِ وَخَانَ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَهُ، وَدَخَلَ هَيْكَلَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِيُوقِدَ عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلْبَخُورِ. ١٦ 16
But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly and he trespassed against the LORD his God, for he went into the LORD’s temple to burn incense on the altar of incense.
وَدَخَلَ وَرَاءَهُ عَزَرْيَا ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَمَعَهُ ثَمَانُونَ مِنْ كَهَنَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ بَنِي ٱلْبَأْسِ. ١٧ 17
Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of the LORD, who were valiant men.
وَقَاوَمُوا عُزِّيَّا ٱلْمَلِكَ وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «لَيْسَ لَكَ يَا عُزِّيَّا أَنْ تُوقِدَ لِلرَّبِّ، بَلْ لِلْكَهَنَةِ بَنِي هَارُونَ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِينَ لِلْإِيقَادِ. اُخْرُجْ مِنَ ٱلْمَقْدِسِ لِأَنَّكَ خُنْتَ وَلَيْسَ لَكَ مِنْ كَرَامَةٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْإِلَهِ». ١٨ 18
They resisted Uzziah the king, and said to him, “It isn’t for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to the LORD, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary, for you have trespassed. It will not be for your honor from the LORD God.”
فَحَنِقَ عُزِّيَّا. وَكَانَ فِي يَدِهِ مِجْمَرَةٌ لِلْإِيقَادِ. وَعِنْدَ حَنَقِهِ عَلَى ٱلْكَهَنَةِ خَرَجَ بَرَصٌ فِي جَبْهَتِهِ أَمَامَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ بِجَانِبِ مَذْبَحِ ٱلْبَخُورِ. ١٩ 19
Then Uzziah was angry. He had a censer in his hand to burn incense, and while he was angry with the priests, the leprosy broke out on his forehead before the priests in the LORD’s house, beside the altar of incense.
فَٱلْتَفَتَ نَحْوَهُ عَزَرْيَاهُو ٱلْكَاهِنُ ٱلرَّأْسُ وَكُلُّ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَإِذَا هُوَ أَبْرَصُ فِي جَبْهَتِهِ، فَطَرَدُوهُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ حَتَّى إِنَّهُ هُوَ نَفْسُهُ بَادَرَ إِلَى ٱلْخُرُوجِ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ضَرَبَهُ. ٢٠ 20
Azariah the chief priest and all the priests looked at him, and behold, he was leprous in his forehead; and they thrust him out quickly from there. Indeed, he himself also hurried to go out, because the LORD had struck him.
وَكَانَ عُزِّيَّا ٱلْمَلِكُ أَبْرَصَ إِلَى يَوْمِ وَفَاتِهِ، وَأَقَامَ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلْمَرَضِ أَبْرَصَ لِأَنَّهُ قُطِعَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَكَانَ يُوثَامُ ٱبْنُهُ عَلَى بَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ يَحْكُمُ عَلَى شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٢١ 21
Uzziah the king was a leper to the day of his death, and lived in a separate house, being a leper; for he was cut off from the LORD’s house. Jotham his son was over the king’s house, judging the people of the land.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ عُزِّيَّا ٱلْأُولَى وَٱلْأَخِيرَةُ كَتَبَهَا إِشَعْيَاءُ بْنُ آمُوصَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ. ٢٢ 22
Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, wrote.
ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ عُزِّيَّا مَعَ آبَائِهِ وَدَفَنُوهُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ فِي حَقْلِ ٱلْمِقْبَرَةِ ٱلَّتِي لِلْمُلُوكِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا إِنَّهُ أَبْرَصُ. وَمَلَكَ يُوثَامُ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. ٢٣ 23
So Uzziah slept with his fathers; and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial which belonged to the kings, for they said, “He is a leper.” Jotham his son reigned in his place.
