< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلثَّانِي 13 >

فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّالِثَةِ وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ لِيُوآشَ بْنِ أَخَزْيَا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، مَلَكَ يَهُوأَحَازُ بْنُ يَاهُو عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ سَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً. ١ 1
Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, became king of Israel in the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, son of Ahaziah, king of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for seventeen years.
وَعَمِلَ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَسَارَ وَرَاءَ خَطَايَا يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ نَبَاطَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُخْطِئُ. لَمْ يَحِدْ عَنْهَا. ٢ 2
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and followed the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat, had made Israel commit; he did not end them.
فَحَمِيَ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَدَفَعَهُمْ لِيَدِ حَزَائِيلَ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ، وَلِيَدِ بَنْهَدَدَ بْنِ حَزَائِيلَ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. ٣ 3
So the Lord was angry with Israel, and he repeatedly allowed them to be defeated by Hazael, king of Aram, and his son Ben-hadad.
وَتَضَرَّعَ يَهُوأَحَازُ إِلَى وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَسَمِعَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِأَنَّهُ رَأَى ضِيقَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، لِأَنَّ مَلِكَ أَرَامَ ضَايَقَهُمْ. ٤ 4
Jehoahaz asked the Lord for help, and the Lord responded to his request because he saw how badly the king of Aram was treating Israel.
وَأَعْطَى ٱلرَّبُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مُخَلِّصًا، فَخَرَجُوا مِنْ تَحْتِ يَدِ ٱلْأَرَامِيِّينَ. وَأَقَامَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي خِيَامِهِمْ كَأَمْسِ وَمَا قَبْلَهُ. ٥ 5
The Lord gave Israel someone who would save them so they no longer were under Aramean rule. Then the Israelites were able to go back to living in safety as before.
وَلَكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَحِيدُوا عَنْ خَطَايَا بَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُخْطِئُ، بَلْ سَارُوا بِهَا. وَوَقَفَتِ ٱلسَّارِيَةُ أَيْضًا فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ. ٦ 6
Even so they did not end the sins that the house of Jeroboam had made Israel commit—they continued to follow them. The Asherah idol still stood in Samaria.
لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُبْقِ لِيَهُوأَحَازَ شَعْبًا إِلَّا خَمْسِينَ فَارِسًا وَعَشَرَ مَرْكَبَاتٍ وَعَشْرَةَ آلَافِ رَاجِلٍ، لِأَنَّ مَلِكَ أَرَامَ أَفْنَاهُمْ وَوَضَعَهُمْ كَٱلتُّرَابِ لِلدَّوْسِ. ٧ 7
All that was left of Jehoahaz's army were fifty horsemen, ten chariots, and ten thousand soldiers, for the king of Aram had destroyed the rest, turning them into dust like that when grain is threshed.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ يَهُوأَحَازَ وَكُلُّ مَا عَمِلَ وَجَبَرُوتُهُ، أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ ٨ 8
The rest of what happened in Jehoahaz's reign, all he did, and his great achievements are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ يَهُوأَحَازُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، وَمَلَكَ يُوآشُ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. ٩ 9
Jehoahaz died and was buried in Samaria. His son Jehoash succeeded him as king.
فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلسَّابِعَةِ وَٱلثَّلَاثِينَ لِيُوآشَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، مَلَكَ يَهُوآشُ بْنُ يَهُوأَحَازَ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً. ١٠ 10
Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, became king of Israel in Samaria in the thirty-seventh year of the reign of King Joash of Judah, and he reigned for sixteen years.
وَعَمِلَ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلَمْ يَحِدْ عَنْ جَمِيعِ خَطَايَا يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ نَبَاطَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُخْطِئُ، بَلْ سَارَ بِهَا. ١١ 11
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and did not end all the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit—he continued to follow them.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ يُوآشَ وَكُلُّ مَا عَمِلَ وَجَبَرُوتُهُ وَكَيْفَ حَارَبَ أَمَصْيَا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا، أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ ١٢ 12
The rest of what happened in Jehoash's reign, all he did, and his great achievements such as his war against Amaziah, king of Judah, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ يُوآشُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، وَجَلَسَ يَرُبْعَامُ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ. وَدُفِنَ يُوآشُ فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ مَعَ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ١٣ 13
Jehoash died, and Jeroboam sat on his throne. Jehoash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
وَمَرِضَ أَلِيشَعُ مَرَضَهُ ٱلَّذِي مَاتَ بِهِ، فَنَزَلَ إِلَيْهِ يُوآشُ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَبَكَى عَلَى وَجْهِهِ وَقَالَ: «يَا أَبِي، يَا أَبِي، يَا مَرْكَبَةَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفُرْسَانَهَا». ١٤ 14
Elisha had become ill with a disease that would eventually kill him. Jehoash, king of Israel, went to visit him, and wept over him, saying, “My father, my father, the chariots and the horsemen of Israel!”
فَقَالَ لَهُ أَلِيشَعُ: «خُذْ قَوْسًا وَسِهَامًا». فَأَخَذَ لِنَفْسِهِ قَوْسًا وَسِهَامًا. ١٥ 15
Elisha told him, “Find a bow and some arrows.” So Jehoash found a bow and some arrows.
ثُمَّ قَالَ لِمَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «رَكِّبْ يَدَكَ عَلَى ٱلْقَوْسِ». فَرَكَّبَ يَدَهُ، ثُمَّ وَضَعَ أَلِيشَعُ يَدَهُ عَلَى يَدَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ ١٦ 16
Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Pick up the bow.” So the king picked up the bow. Elisha placed his hands on the king's hands.
وَقَالَ: «ٱفْتَحِ ٱلْكَوَّةَ لِجِهَةِ ٱلشَّرْقِ». فَفَتَحَهَا. فَقَالَ أَلِيشَعُ: «ٱرْمِ». فَرَمَى. فَقَالَ: «سَهْمُ خَلَاصٍ لِلرَّبِّ وَسَهْمُ خَلَاصٍ مِنْ أَرَامَ، فَإِنَّكَ تَضْرِبُ أَرَامَ فِي أَفِيقَ إِلَى ٱلْفَنَاءِ». ١٧ 17
“Open the east window,” he told him. So the king opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot!” So he fired an arrow. Then Elisha explained, “This is the Lord's victory arrow representing the arrow of victory over the Arameans. You will attack the Arameans in Aphek and finish them off.”
ثُمَّ قَالَ: «خُذِ ٱلسِّهَامَ». فَأَخَذَهَا. ثُمَّ قَالَ لِمَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «ٱضْرِبْ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ». فَضَرَبَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَوَقَفَ. ١٨ 18
Then Elisha said, “Pick up the arrows!” So he picked them up. Elisha told the king of Israel, “Hit the ground with them!” He hit the ground three times, and then stopped.
فَغَضِبَ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلُ ٱللهِ وَقَالَ: «لَوْ ضَرَبْتَ خَمْسَ أَوْ سِتَّ مَرَّاتٍ، حِينَئِذٍ ضَرَبْتَ أَرَامَ إِلَى ٱلْفَنَاءِ. وَأَمَّا ٱلْآنَ فَإِنَّكَ إِنَّمَا تَضْرِبُ أَرَامَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ». ١٩ 19
The man of God got angry with him, telling him, “You should have hit the ground five or six times. Then you would have attacked the Arameans until you had completely destroyed them. But now you will only attack the Arameans three times.”
وَمَاتَ أَلِيشَعُ فَدَفَنُوهُ. وَكَانَ غُزَاةُ مُوآبَ تَدْخُلُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ عِنْدَ دُخُولِ ٱلسَّنَةِ. ٢٠ 20
Elisha died and was buried. Raiders from the country of Moab used to invade Israel every spring.
وَفِيمَا كَانُوا يَدْفِنُونَ رَجُلًا إِذَا بِهِمْ قَدْ رَأَوْا ٱلْغُزَاةَ، فَطَرَحُوا ٱلرَّجُلَ فِي قَبْرِ أَلِيشَعَ، فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ ٱلرَّجُلُ وَمَسَّ عِظَامَ أَلِيشَعَ عَاشَ وَقَامَ عَلَى رِجْلَيْهِ. ٢١ 21
On time some Israelites were burying a man when suddenly they saw some raiders coming, so they quickly threw the man into Elisha's tomb. As soon as he touched Elisha's bones, the man came back to life and stood up.
وَأَمَّا حَزَائِيلُ مَلِكُ أَرَامَ فَضَايَقَ إِسْرَائِيلَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ يَهُوأَحَازَ، ٢٢ 22
Hazael, king of Aram, caused problems for Israel through all Jehoahaz's reign.
فَحَنَّ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِمْ وَرَحِمَهُمْ وَٱلْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِمْ لِأَجْلِ عَهْدِهِ مَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ، وَلَمْ يَشَأْ أَنْ يَسْتَأْصِلَهُمْ، وَلَمْ يَطْرَحْهُمْ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ. ٢٣ 23
But the Lord graciously helped them and was kind to them. He looked after them because of his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Even to this day he's been unwilling to destroy them or to throw them out of his presence.
ثُمَّ مَاتَ حَزَائِيلُ مَلِكُ أَرَامَ، وَمَلَكَ بَنْهَدَدُ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. ٢٤ 24
When Hazael, king of Aram, died, his son Ben-hadad succeeded him as king.
فَعَادَ يَهُوآشُ بْنُ يَهُوأَحَازَ وَأَخَذَ ٱلْمُدُنَ مِنْ يَدِ بَنْهَدَدَ بْنِ حَزَائِيلَ ٱلَّتِي أَخَذَهَا مِنْ يَدِ يَهُوأَحَازَ أَبِيهِ بِٱلْحَرْبِ. ضَرَبَهُ يُوآشُ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَٱسْتَرَدَّ مُدُنَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٢٥ 25
Then Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, recovered from Ben-hadad son of Hazael, the towns that Hazael had captured from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash defeated Ben-hadad three times, and so recaptured the Israelite towns.
