< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلثَّانِي 16 >

فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلسَّابِعَةَ عَشْرَةَ لِفَقْحَ بْنِ رَمَلْيَا، مَلَكَ آحَازُ بْنُ يُوثَامَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا. ١ 1
In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham king of Judah, began to reign.
كَانَ آحَازُ ٱبْنَ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ. وَلَمْ يَعْمَلِ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ كَدَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ، ٢ 2
Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of Yahweh his God, as David his ancestor had done.
بَلْ سَارَ فِي طَرِيقِ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، حَتَّى إِنَّهُ عَبَّرَ ٱبْنَهُ فِي ٱلنَّارِ حَسَبَ أَرْجَاسِ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ طَرَدَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣ 3
Instead, he walked in the way of the kings of Israel; indeed, he made his son pass through the fire, following the detestable practices of the nations, which Yahweh had driven out before the people of Israel.
وَذَبَحَ وَأَوْقَدَ عَلَى ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ وَعَلَى ٱلتِّلَالِ وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ. ٤ 4
He offered sacrifices and burned incense at the high places, on the hilltops, and under every green tree.
حِينَئِذٍ صَعِدَ رَصِينُ مَلِكُ أَرَامَ وَفَقْحُ بْنُ رَمَلْيَا مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِلْمُحَارَبَةِ، فَحَاصَرُوا آحَازَ وَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَغْلِبُوهُ. ٥ 5
Then Rezin, king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to attack. They besieged Ahaz, but they could not conquer him.
فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ أَرْجَعَ رَصِينُ مَلِكُ أَرَامَ أَيْلَةَ لِلْأَرَامِيِّينَ، وَطَرَدَ ٱلْيَهُودَ مِنْ أَيْلَةَ. وَجَاءَ ٱلْأَرَامِيُّونَ إِلَى أَيْلَةَ وَأَقَامُوا هُنَاكَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ٦ 6
At that time, Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath for Aram and drove the men of Judah out of Elath. Then the Arameans came to Elath where they have lived to this day.
وَأَرْسَلَ آحَازُ رُسُلًا إِلَى تَغْلَثَ فَلَاسِرَ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ قَائِلًا: «أَنَا عَبْدُكَ وَٱبْنُكَ. ٱصْعَدْ وَخَلِّصْنِي مِنْ يَدِ مَلِكِ أَرَامَ وَمِنْ يَدِ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْقَائِمَيْنِ عَلَيَّ». ٧ 7
So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria, saying, “I am your servant and your son. Come up and save me from the hand of the king of Aram and from the hand of the king of Israel, who have attacked me.”
فَأَخَذَ آحَازُ ٱلْفِضَّةَ وَٱلذَّهَبَ ٱلْمَوْجُودَةَ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَفِي خَزَائِنِ بَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَأَرْسَلَهَا إِلَى مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ هَدِيَّةً. ٨ 8
So Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of Yahweh and among the treasures of the king's palace and he sent it as a gift to the king of Assyria.
فَسَمِعَ لَهُ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ، وَصَعِدَ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ إِلَى دِمَشْقَ وَأَخَذَهَا وَسَبَاهَا إِلَى قِيرَ، وَقَتَلَ رَصِينَ. ٩ 9
Then the king of Assyria listened to him, and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, conquered it and carried off its people as prisoners to Kir. He also killed Rezin the king of Aram.
وَسَارَ ٱلْمَلِكُ آحَازُ لِلِقَاءِ تَغْلَثَ فَلَاسِرَ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ، إِلَى دِمَشْقَ. وَرَأَى ٱلْمَذْبَحَ ٱلَّذِي فِي دِمَشْقَ. وَأَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ آحَازُ إِلَى أُورِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنِ شِبْهَ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ وَشَكْلَهُ حَسَبَ كُلِّ صِنَاعَتِهِ. ١٠ 10
King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria. At Damascus he saw an altar. He sent to Uriah the priest a model of the altar and its pattern and the design for all the workmanship needed.
فَبَنَى أُورِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنُ مَذْبَحًا. حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ آحَازُ مِنْ دِمَشْقَ كَذَلِكَ عَمِلَ أُورِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنُ، رَيْثَمَا جَاءَ ٱلْمَلِكُ آحَازُ مِنْ دِمَشْقَ. ١١ 11
So Uriah the priest built an altar to be just like the plans that King Ahaz had sent from Damascus. He finished it before King Ahaz arrived back from Damascus.
فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ ٱلْمَلِكُ مِنْ دِمَشْقَ رَأَى ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْمَذْبَحَ، فَتَقَدَّمَ ٱلْمَلِكُ إِلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ وَأَصْعَدَ عَلَيْهِ، ١٢ 12
When the king came from Damascus he saw the altar; the king approached the altar and made offerings on it.
وَأَوْقَدَ مُحْرَقَتَهُ وَتَقْدِمَتَهُ وَسَكَبَ سَكِيبَهُ، وَرَشَّ دَمَ ذَبِيحَةِ ٱلسَّلَامَةِ ٱلَّتِي لَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ. ١٣ 13
He made his burnt offering and his grain offering, poured out his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his fellowship offerings on the altar.
وَمَذْبَحُ ٱلنُّحَاسِ ٱلَّذِي أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ قَدَّمَهُ مِنْ أَمَامِ ٱلْبَيْتِ مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ وَبَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَجَعَلَهُ عَلَى جَانِبِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ ٱلشِّمَالِيِّ. ١٤ 14
The bronze altar that was before Yahweh—he brought it from the front of the temple, from between his altar and the temple of Yahweh and put it on the north side of his altar.
وَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ آحَازُ أُورِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنَ قَائِلًا: «عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ أَوْقِدْ مُحْرَقَةَ ٱلصَّبَاحِ وَتَقْدِمَةَ ٱلْمَسَاءِ، وَمُحْرَقَةَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَتَقْدِمَتَهُ، مَعَ مُحْرَقَةِ كُلِّ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَتَقْدِمَتِهِمْ وَسَكَائِبِهِمْ، وَرُشَّ عَلَيْهِ كُلَّ دَمِ مُحْرَقَةٍ وَكُلَّ دَمِ ذَبِيحَةٍ. وَمَذْبَحُ ٱلنُّحَاسِ يَكُونُ لِي لِلسُّؤَالِ». ١٥ 15
Then King Ahaz commanded Uriah the priest, saying, “On the large altar burn the morning burnt offering and the evening grain offering, and the king's burnt offering and his grain offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their grain offering and their drink offerings. Sprinkle on it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice. But the bronze altar will be for me to consult for guidance.”
فَعَمِلَ أُورِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنُ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ ٱلْمَلِكُ آحَازُ. ١٦ 16
Uriah the priest did just what King Ahaz commanded.
وَقَطَعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ آحَازُ أَتْرَاسَ ٱلْقَوَاعِدِ وَرَفَعَ عَنْهَا ٱلْمِرْحَضَةَ، وَأَنْزَلَ ٱلْبَحْرَ عَنْ ثِيرَانِ ٱلنُّحَاسِ ٱلَّتِي تَحْتَهُ وَجَعَلَهُ عَلَى رَصِيفٍ مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ. ١٧ 17
Then King Ahaz removed the panels and the basins from the portable stands; he also took down the sea from off the bronze oxen that were under it and put it on a stone pavement.
وَرِوَاقَ ٱلسَّبْتِ ٱلَّذِي بَنَوْهُ فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ، وَمَدْخَلَ ٱلْمَلِكِ مِنْ خَارِجٍ، غَيَّرَهُ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنْ أَجْلِ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ. ١٨ 18
He removed the covered walkway for the Sabbath that they had built at the temple, along with the king's entry outside the temple of Yahweh, because of the king of Assyria.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ آحَازَ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَ، أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا؟ ١٩ 19
As for the other matters concerning Ahaz and what he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ آحَازُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، وَدُفِنَ مَعَ آبَائِهِ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، وَمَلَكَ حَزَقِيَّا ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. ٢٠ 20
Ahaz slept with his ancestors and was buried with his ancestors in the city of David. Hezekiah his son became king in his place.
