< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلثَّانِي 17 >

فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيةَ عَشْرَةَ لِآحَازَ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، مَلَكَ هُوشَعُ بْنُ أَيْلَةَ فِي ٱلسَّامِرَةِ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ تِسْعَ سِنِينَ. ١ 1
In the twelft yeere of Ahaz King of Iudah began Hoshea the sonne of Elah to reigne in Samaria ouer Israel, and reigned nine yeeres.
وَعَمِلَ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ كَمُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا قَبْلَهُ. ٢ 2
And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, but not as the Kinges of Israel, that were before him.
وَصَعِدَ عَلَيْهِ شَلْمَنْأَسَرُ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ، فَصَارَ لَهُ هُوشَعُ عَبْدًا وَدَفَعَ لَهُ جِزْيَةً. ٣ 3
And Shalmaneser king of Asshur came vp against him, and Hoshea became his seruant, and gaue him presents.
وَوَجَدَ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ فِي هُوشَعَ خِيَانَةً، لِأَنَّهُ أَرْسَلَ رُسُلًا إِلَى سَوَا مَلِكِ مِصْرَ، وَلَمْ يُؤَدِّ جِزْيَةً إِلَى مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ سَنَةٍ، فَقَبَضَ عَلَيْهِ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ وَأَوْثَقَهُ فِي ٱلسِّجْنِ. ٤ 4
And the King of Asshur founde treason in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So King of Egypt, and brought no present vnto the King of Asshur, as he had done yeerely: therfore the king of Asshur shut him vp, and put him in prison.
وَصَعِدَ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَصَعِدَ إِلَى ٱلسَّامِرَةِ وَحَاصَرَهَا ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ. ٥ 5
Then the king of Asshur came vp throughout all the lande, and went against Samaria, and besieged it three yeere.
فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلتَّاسِعَةِ لِهُوشَعَ أَخَذَ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ ٱلسَّامِرَةَ، وَسَبَى إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى أَشُّورَ وَأَسْكَنَهُمْ فِي حَلَحَ وَخَابُورَ نَهْرِ جُوزَانَ وَفِي مُدُنِ مَادِي. ٦ 6
In the ninth yeere of Hoshea, the King of Asshur tooke Samaria, and caryed Israel away vnto Asshur, and put them in Halah, and in Habor by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
وَكَانَ أَنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَخْطَأُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمِ ٱلَّذِي أَصْعَدَهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ مِنْ تَحْتِ يَدِ فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ، وَٱتَّقَوْا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، ٧ 7
For when the children of Israel sinned against the Lord their God, which had brought them out of the land of Egypt, from vnder ye hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and feared other gods,
وَسَلَكُوا حَسَبَ فَرَائِضِ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ طَرَدَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَقَامُوهُمْ. ٨ 8
And walked according to the facions of the Heathen, whom the Lord had cast out before the children of Israel, and after the maners of the Kings of Israel, which they vsed,
وَعَمِلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ سِرًّا ضِدَّ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ أُمُورًا لَيْسَتْ بِمُسْتَقِيمَةٍ، وَبَنَوْا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ مُرْتَفَعَاتٍ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِهِمْ، مِنْ بُرْجِ ٱلنَّوَاطِيرِ إِلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلْمُحَصَّنَةِ. ٩ 9
And the children of Israel had done secretly things that were not vpright before the Lord their God, and throughout all their cities had built hie places, both from the tower of the watch, to the defensed citie,
وَأَقَامُوا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ أَنْصَابًا وَسَوَارِيَ عَلَى كُلِّ تَلٍّ عَالٍ وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ. ١٠ 10
And had made them images and groues vpon euery hie hill, and vnder euery greene tree,
وَأَوْقَدُوا هُنَاكَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ مِثْلَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ سَاقَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِهِمْ، وَعَمِلُوا أُمُورًا قَبِيحَةً لِإِغَاظَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١١ 11
And there burnt incense in all the hie places, as did the heathen, whom the Lord had taken away before them, and wrought wicked things to anger the Lord,
وَعَبَدُوا ٱلْأَصْنَامَ ٱلَّتِي قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لَهُمْ عَنْهَا: «لَا تَعْمَلُوا هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ». ١٢ 12
And serued idoles: whereof the Lord had sayd vnto them, Ye shall do no such thing,
وَأَشْهَدَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ وَعَلَى يَهُوذَا عَنْ يَدِ جَمِيعِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَكُلِّ رَاءٍ قَائِلًا: «ٱرْجِعُوا عَنْ طُرُقِكُمُ ٱلرَّدِيئَةِ وَٱحْفَظُوا وَصَايَايَ، فَرَائِضِي، حَسَبَ كُلِّ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَوْصَيْتُ بِهَا آبَاءَكُمْ، وَٱلَّتِي أَرْسَلْتُهَا إِلَيْكُمْ عَنْ يَدِ عَبِيدِي ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ». ١٣ 13
Notwithstanding the Lord testified to Israel, and to Iudah by all the Prophets, and by all the Seers, saying, Turne from your euill wayes, and keepe my commandements and my statutes, according to all the Lawe, which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my seruants the Prophets.
فَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا بَلْ صَلَّبُوا أَقْفِيَتَهُمْ كَأَقْفِيَةِ آبَائِهِمِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يُؤْمِنُوا بِٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ. ١٤ 14
Neuerthelesse they would not obey, but hardened their neckes, like to the neckes of their fathers, that did not beleeue in the Lord their God.
وَرَفَضُوا فَرَائِضَهُ وَعَهْدَهُ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعَهُ مَعَ آبَائِهِمْ وَشَهَادَاتِهِ ٱلَّتِي شَهِدَ بِهَا عَلَيْهِمْ، وَسَارُوا وَرَاءَ ٱلْبَاطِلِ، وَصَارُوا بَاطِلًا وَرَاءَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوْلَهُمُ، ٱلَّذِينَ أَمَرَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ أَنْ لَا يَعْمَلُوا مِثْلَهُمْ. ١٥ 15
And they refused his statutes and his couenant, that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies (wherewith he witnessed vnto them) and they followed vanitie, and became vaine, and followed the heathen that were round about them: concerning whome the Lord had charged them, that they should not do like them.
وَتَرَكُوا جَمِيعَ وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ وَعَمِلُوا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ مَسْبُوكَاتٍ عِجْلَيْنِ، وَعَمِلُوا سَوَارِيَ، وَسَجَدُوا لِجَمِيعِ جُنْدِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَعَبَدُوا ٱلْبَعْلَ. ١٦ 16
Finally they left all the commandements of the Lord their God, and made them molten images, euen two calues, and made a groue, and worshipped all the hoste of heauen, and serued Baal.
وَعَبَّرُوا بَنِيهِمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ فِي ٱلنَّارِ، وَعَرَفُوا عِرَافَةً وَتَفَاءَلُوا، وَبَاعُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ لِعَمَلِ ٱلشَّرِّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِإِغَاظَتِهِ. ١٧ 17
And they made their sonnes and their daughters passe thorowe the fire, and vsed witchcraft and inchantments, yea, solde them selues to doe euill in the sight of the Lord, to anger him.
فَغَضِبَ ٱلرَّبُّ جِدًّا عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ وَنَحَّاهُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ، وَلَمْ يَبْقَ إِلَّا سِبْطُ يَهُوذَا وَحْدَهُ. ١٨ 18
Therefore the Lord was exceeding wroth with Israel, and put them out of his sight, and none was left but the tribe of Iudah onely.
وَيَهُوذَا أَيْضًا لَمْ يَحْفَظُوا وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ، بَلْ سَلَكُوا فِي فَرَائِضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلُوهَا. ١٩ 19
Yet Iudah kept not the commandements of the Lord their God, but walked according to the facion of Israel, which they vsed.
فَرَذَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ كُلَّ نَسْلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَذَلَّهُمْ وَدَفَعَهُمْ لِيَدِ نَاهِبِينَ حَتَّى طَرَحَهُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ، ٢٠ 20
Therefore the Lord cast off all the seede of Israel, and afflicted them, and deliuered them into the handes of spoylers, vntill he had cast them out of his sight.
لِأَنَّهُ شَقَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ، فَمَلَّكُوا يَرُبْعَامَ بْنَ نَبَاطَ، فَأَبْعَدَ يَرُبْعَامُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ وَرَاءِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَجَعَلَهُمْ يُخْطِئُونَ خَطِيَّةً عَظِيمَةً. ٢١ 21
For he cut off Israel from the house of Dauid, and they made Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat King: and Ieroboam drewe Israel away from following the Lord, and made them sinne a great sinne.
وَسَلَكَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي جَمِيعِ خَطَايَا يَرُبْعَامَ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَ. لَمْ يَحِيدُوا عَنْهَا ٢٢ 22
For the children of Israel walked in all the sinnes of Ieroboam, which he did, and departed not therefrom,
حَتَّى نَحَّى ٱلرَّبُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ عَنْ يَدِ جَمِيعِ عَبِيدِهِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ، فَسُبِيَ إِسْرَائِيلُ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ إِلَى أَشُّورَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ٢٣ 23
Vntill the Lord put Israel away out of his sight, as he had said by all his seruants the Prophets, and caryed Israel away out of their land to Asshur vnto this day.
وَأَتَى مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ بِقَوْمٍ مِنْ بَابِلَ وَكُوثَ وَعَوَّا وَحَمَاةَ وَسَفَرْوَايِمَ، وَأَسْكَنَهُمْ فِي مُدُنِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ عِوَضًا عَنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَٱمْتَلَكُوا ٱلسَّامِرَةَ وَسَكَنُوا فِي مُدُنِهَا. ٢٤ 24
And the King of Asshur brought folke from Babel, and from Cuthah, and from Aua, and from Hamath, and from Sepharuaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria in steade of the children of Israel: so they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
وَكَانَ فِي ٱبْتِدَاءِ سَكَنِهِمْ هُنَاكَ أَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَتَّقُوا ٱلرَّبَّ، فَأَرْسَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِمِ ٱلسِّبَاعَ فَكَانَتْ تَقْتُلُ مِنْهُمْ. ٢٥ 25
And at the beginning of their dwelling there, they feared not the Lord: therefore the Lord sent lions among them, which slewe them.
فَكَلَّمُوا مَلِكَ أَشُّورَ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّ ٱلْأُمَمَ ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَيْتَهُمْ وَأَسْكَنْتَهُمْ فِي مُدُنِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، لَا يَعْرِفُونَ قَضَاءَ إِلَهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَأَرْسَلَ عَلَيْهِمِ ٱلسِّبَاعَ فَهِيَ تَقْتُلُهُمْ لِأَنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ قَضَاءَ إِلَهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ». ٢٦ 26
Wherefore they spake to the King of Asshur, saying, The nations which thou hast remoued, and placed in the cities of Samaria, knowe not the maner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and behold, they slay them, because they knowe not the maner of the God of the land.
فَأَمَرَ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ قَائِلًا: «ٱبْعَثُوا إِلَى هُنَاكَ وَاحِدًا مِنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَيْتُمُوهُمْ مِنْ هُنَاكَ فَيَذْهَبَ وَيَسْكُنَ هُنَاكَ، وَيُعَلِّمَهُمْ قَضَاءَ إِلَهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ». ٢٧ 27
Then the King of Asshur commanded, saying, Carie thither one of the Priestes whome ye brought thence, and let him goe and dwell there, and teache them the maner of the God of the countrey.
فَأَتَى وَاحِدٌ مِنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَوْهُمْ مِنَ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، وَسَكَنَ فِي بَيْتِ إِيلَ وَعَلَّمَهُمْ كَيْفَ يَتَّقُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ. ٢٨ 28
So one of the Priestes, which they had caryed from Samaria, came and dwelt in Beth-el, and taught them how they shoulde feare the Lord.
فَكَانَتْ كُلُّ أُمَّةٍ تَعْمَلُ آلِهَتَهَا وَوَضَعُوهَا فِي بُيُوتِ ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَهَا ٱلسَّامِرِيُّونَ، كُلُّ أُمَّةٍ فِي مُدُنِهَا ٱلَّتِي سَكَنَتْ فِيهَا. ٢٩ 29
Howbeit euery nation made their gods, and put them in the houses of the hie places, which the Samaritanes had made, euery nation in their cities, wherein they dwelt.
فَعَمِلَ أَهْلُ بَابِلَ سُكُّوثَ بَنُوثَ، وَأَهْلُ كُوثَ عَمِلُوا نَرْجَلَ، وَأَهْلُ حَمَاةَ عَمِلُوا أَشِيمَا، ٣٠ 30
For the men of Babel made Succoth-Benoth: and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
وَٱلْعُوِّيُّونَ عَمِلُوا نِبْحَزَ وَتَرْتَاقَ، وَٱلسَّفَرْوَايِمِيُّونَ كَانُوا يُحْرِقُونَ بَنِيهِمْ بِٱلنَّارِ لِأَدْرَمَّلَكَ وَعَنَمَّلَكَ إِلَهَيْ سَفَرْوَايِمَ. ٣١ 31
And the Auims made Nibhaz, and Tartak: and the Sepharuims burnt their children in the fire to Adrammelech, and Anammelech the gods of Sepharuaim.
فَكَانُوا يَتَّقُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ، وَيَعْمَلُونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ مِنْ أَطْرَافِهِمْ كَهَنَةَ مُرْتَفَعَاتٍ، كَانُوا يُقَرِّبُونَ لِأَجْلِهِمْ فِي بُيُوتِ ٱلْمُرْتَفَعَاتِ. ٣٢ 32
Thus they feared the Lord, and appoynted out Priestes out of them selues for the hie places, who prepared for them sacrifices in the houses of the hie places.
كَانُوا يَتَّقُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ وَيَعْبُدُونَ آلِهتَهُمْ كَعَادَةِ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَوْهُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ ٣٣ 33
They feared the Lord, but serued their gods after the maner of the nations whome they caryed thence.
إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ يَعْمَلُونَ كَعَادَاتِهِمِ ٱلْأُوَلِ. لَا يَتَّقُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ وَلَا يَعْمَلُونَ حَسَبَ فَرَائِضِهِمْ وَعَوَائِدِهِمْ وَلَا حَسَبَ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ وَٱلْوَصِيَّةِ ٱلَّتِي أَمَرَ بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ، ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ ٱسْمَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣٤ 34
Vnto this day they doe after the olde maner: they neyther feare God, neyther doe after their ordinances, nor after their customes, nor after the Lawe, nor after the commandement, which the Lord commanded the children of Iaakob, whom he named Israel,
وَقَطَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ مَعَهُمْ عَهْدًا وَأَمَرَهُمْ قَائِلًا: «لَا تَتَّقُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، وَلَا تَسْجُدُوا لَهَا وَلَا تَعْبُدُوهَا وَلَا تَذْبَحُوا لَهَا. ٣٥ 35
And with whom the Lord had made a couenant, and charged them, saying, Feare none other gods, nor bowe your selues to them, nor serue them, nor sacrifice to them:
بَلْ إِنَّمَا ٱتَّقُوا ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلَّذِي أَصْعَدَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ بِقُوَّةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ مَمْدُودَةٍ، وَلَهُ ٱسْجُدُوا، وَلَهُ ٱذْبَحُوا. ٣٦ 36
But feare the Lord which brought you out of the land of Egypt with great power, and a stretched out arme: him feare ye, and worshippe him, and sacrifice to him.
وَٱحْفَظُوا ٱلْفَرَائِضَ وَٱلْأَحْكَامَ وَٱلشَّرِيعَةَ وَٱلْوَصِيَّةَ ٱلَّتِي كَتَبَهَا لَكُمْ لِتَعْمَلُوا بِهَا كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، وَلَا تَتَّقُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى. ٣٧ 37
Also keepe ye diligently the statutes and the ordinances, and the Lawe, and the commandement, which he wrote for you, that ye do them continually, and feare not other gods.
وَلَا تَنْسَوْا ٱلْعَهْدَ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعْتُهُ مَعَكُمْ، وَلَا تَتَّقُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى. ٣٨ 38
And forget not the couenant that I haue made with you, neither feare ye other gods,
بَلْ إِنَّمَا ٱتَّقُوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ وَهُوَ يُنْقِذُكُمْ مِنْ أَيْدِي جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِكُمْ». ٣٩ 39
But feare the Lord your God, and he will deliuer you out of the handes of all your enemies.
فَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا بَلْ عَمِلُوا حَسَبَ عَادَتِهِمِ ٱلْأُولَى. ٤٠ 40
Howbeit they obeyed not, but did after their olde custome.
فَكَانَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْأُمَمُ يَتَّقُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ، وَيَعْبُدُونَ تَمَاثِيلَهُمْ، وَأَيْضًا بَنُوهُمْ وَبَنُو بَنِيهِمْ. فَكَمَا عَمِلَ آبَاؤُهُمْ هَكَذَا هُمْ عَامِلُونَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ٤١ 41
So these nations feared the Lord, and serued their images also: so did their children, and their childrens children: as did their fathers, so do they vnto this day.
