< صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلثَّانِي 24 >
وَعَادَ فَحَمِيَ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَأَهَاجَ عَلَيْهِمْ دَاوُدَ قَائِلًا: «ٱمْضِ وَأَحْصِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا». | ١ 1 |
And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah.
فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِيُوآبَ رَئِيسِ ٱلْجَيْشِ ٱلَّذِي عِنْدَهُ: «طُفْ فِي جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دَانَ إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ وَعُدُّوا ٱلشَّعْبَ، فَأَعْلَمَ عَدَدَ ٱلشَّعْبِ». | ٢ 2 |
For the king said to Joab the captain of the host, who was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and number ye the people, that I may know the number of the people.
فَقَالَ يُوآبُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «لِيَزِدِ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ ٱلشَّعْبَ أَمْثَالَهُمْ مِئَةَ ضِعْفٍ، وَعَيْنَا سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكِ نَاظِرَتَانِ. وَلَكِنْ لِمَاذَا يُسَرُّ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ بِهَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ؟» | ٣ 3 |
And Joab said to the king, Now the LORD thy God add to the people, as many as they may be, an hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see it: but why doth my lord the king delight in this thing?
فَٱشْتَدَّ كَلَامُ ٱلْمَلِكِ عَلَى يُوآبَ وَعَلَى رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْجَيْشِ، فَخَرَجَ يُوآبُ وَرُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْجَيْشِ مِنْ عِنْدِ ٱلْمَلِكِ لِيَعُدُّوا ٱلْشَّعْبَ،أَيْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٤ 4 |
But the king’s word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. And Joab and the captains of the host went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel.
فَعَبَرُوا ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ وَنَزَلُوا فِي عَرُوعِيرَ عَنْ يَمِينِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي وَسَطِ وَادِي جَادَ وَتُجَاهَ يَعْزِيرَ. | ٥ 5 |
And they passed over Jordan, and encamped in Aroer, on the right side of the city that lieth in the midst of the river of Gad, and toward Jazer:
وَأَتَوْا إِلَى جِلْعَادَ وَإِلَى أَرْضِ تَحْتِيمَ إِلَى حُدْشِي، ثُمَّ أَتَوْا إِلَى دَانِ يَعَنَ، وَٱسْتَدَارُوا إِلَى صِيْدُونَ. | ٦ 6 |
Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtimhodshi; and they came to Danjaan, and about to Zidon,
ثُمَّ أَتَوْا إِلَى حِصْنِ صُورٍ وَجَمِيعِ مُدُنِ ٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ وَٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ، ثُمَّ خَرَجُوا إِلَى جَنُوبِيِّ يَهُوذَا، إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ٧ 7 |
And came to the strong hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites: and they went out to the south of Judah, even to Beersheba.
وَطَافُوا كُلَّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَجَاءُوا فِي نِهَايَةِ تِسْعَةِ أَشْهُرٍ وَعِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ٨ 8 |
So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
فَدَفَعَ يُوآبُ جُمْلَةَ عَدَدِ ٱلشَّعْبِ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ، فَكَانَ إِسْرَائِيلُ ثَمَانَ مِئَةِ أَلْفِ رَجُلٍ ذِي بَأْسٍ مُسْتَلِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ، وَرِجَالُ يَهُوذَا خَمْسَ مِئَةِ أَلْفِ رَجُلٍ. | ٩ 9 |
And Joab presented the sum of the number of the people to the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
وَضَرَبَ دَاوُدَ قَلْبُهُ بَعْدَمَا عَدَّ ٱلشَّعْبَ. فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِلرَّبِّ: «لَقَدْ أَخْطَأْتُ جِدًّا فِي مَا فَعَلْتُ، وَٱلْآنَ يَارَبُّ أَزِلْ إِثْمَ عَبْدِكَ لِأَنِّي ٱنْحَمَقْتُ جِدًّا». | ١٠ 10 |
And David’s heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said to the LORD, I have sinned greatly in what I have done: and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
وَلَمَّا قَامَ دَاوُدُ صَبَاحًا، كَانَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى جَادٍ ٱلنَّبِيِّ رَائِي دَاوُدَ قَائِلًا: | ١١ 11 |
For when David had risen in the morning, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying,
«اِذْهَبْ وَقُلْ لِدَاوُدَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: ثَلَاثَةً أَنَا عَارِضٌ عَلَيْكَ، فَٱخْتَرْ لِنَفْسِكَ وَاحِدًا مِنْهَا فَأَفْعَلَهُ بِكَ». | ١٢ 12 |
Go and say to David, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things; choose thee one of them, that I may do it to thee.
فَأَتَى جَادُ إِلَى دَاوُدَ وَأَخبَرهُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَتَأْتِي عَلَيْكَ سَبْعُ سِنِي جُوعٍ فِي أَرْضِكَ، أَمْ تَهْرُبُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْهُرٍ أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِكَ وَهُمْ يَتْبَعُونَكَ، أَمْ يَكُونُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَبَأٌ فِي أَرْضِكَ؟ فَٱلْآنَ ٱعْرِفْ وَٱنْظُرْ مَاذَا أَرُدُّ جَوَابًا عَلَى مُرْسِلِي». | ١٣ 13 |
So Gad came to David, and told him, and said to him, Shall seven years of famine come upon thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thy enemies, while they pursue thee? or that there be three days’ pestilence in thy land? now consider, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.
فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِجَادٍ: «قَدْ ضَاقَ بِيَ ٱلْأَمْرُ جِدًّا. فَلْنَسْقُطْ فِي يَدِ ٱلرَّبِّ، لِأَنَّ مَرَاحِمَهُ كَثِيرَةٌ وَلَا أَسْقُطْ فِي يَدِ إِنْسَانٍ». | ١٤ 14 |
And David said to Gad, I am in deep distress: let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies are great: and let me not fall into the hand of man.
فَجَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ وَبَأً فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنَ ٱلصَّبَاحِ إِلَى ٱلْمِيعَادِ، فَمَاتَ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنْ دَانٍ إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ. | ١٥ 15 |
So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men.
وَبَسَطَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ يَدَهُ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيُهْلِكَهَا، فَنَدِمَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنِ ٱلشَّرِّ، وَقَالَ لِلْمَلَاكِ ٱلْمُهْلِكِ ٱلشَّعْبَ: «كَفَى! ٱلْآنَ رُدَّ يَدَكَ». وَكَانَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ عِنْدَ بَيْدَرِ أَرُونَةَ ٱلْيَبُوسِيِّ. | ١٦ 16 |
And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now thy hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshingplace of Araunah the Jebusite.
فَكَلَّمَ دَاوُدُ ٱلرَّبَّ عِنْدَمَا رَأَى ٱلْمَلَاكَ ٱلضَّارِبَ ٱلشَّعْبَ وَقَالَ: «هَا أَنَا أَخْطَأْتُ، وَأَنَا أَذْنَبْتُ، وَأَمَّا هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْخِرَافُ فَمَاذَا فَعَلُوا؟ فَلْتَكُنْ يَدُكَ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَى بَيْتِ أَبِي». | ١٧ 17 |
And David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said, Lo, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly: but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father’s house.
فَجَاءَ جَادُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ إِلَى دَاوُدَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱصْعَدْ وَأَقِمْ لِلرَّبِّ مَذْبَحًا فِي بَيْدَرِ أَرُونَةَ ٱلْيَبُوسِيِّ». | ١٨ 18 |
And Gad came that day to David, and said to him, Go up, rear an altar to the LORD in the threshingfloor of Araunah the Jebusite.
فَصَعِدَ دَاوُدُ حَسَبَ كَلَامِ جَادَ كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٩ 19 |
And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as the LORD commanded.
فَتَطَلَّعَ أَرُونَةُ وَرَأَى ٱلْمَلِكَ وَعَبِيدَهُ يُقْبِلُونَ إِلَيْهِ، فَخَرَجَ أَرُونَةُ وَسَجَدَ لِلْمَلِكِ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king on his face upon the ground.
وَقَالَ أَرُونَةُ: «لِمَاذَا جَاءَ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ إِلَى عَبْدِهِ؟» فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ: «لِأَشْتَرِيَ مِنْكَ ٱلْبَيْدَرَ لِكَيْ أَبْنِيَ مَذْبَحًا لِلرَّبِّ فَتَكُفَّ ٱلضَّرْبَةُ عَنِ ٱلشَّعْبِ». | ٢١ 21 |
And Araunah said, Why is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshingfloor of thee, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
فَقَالَ أَرُونَةُ لِدَاوُدَ: «فَلْيَأْخُذْهُ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ وَيُصْعِدْ مَا يَحْسُنُ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ. اُنْظُرْ. اَلْبَقَرُ لِلْمُحْرَقَةِ، وَٱلنَّوَارِجُ وَأَدَوَاتُ ٱلْبَقَرِ حَطَبًا». | ٢٢ 22 |
And Araunah said to David, Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good to him: behold, here are oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing instruments and other instruments of the oxen for wood.
اَلْكُلُّ دَفَعَهُ أَرُونَةُ ٱلْمَالِكُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. وَقَالَ أَرُونَةُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ يَرْضَى عَنْكَ». | ٢٣ 23 |
All these things did Araunah, as a king, give to the king. And Araunah said to the king, The LORD thy God accept thee.
فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِأَرُونَةَ: «لَا، بَلْ أَشْتَرِي مِنْكَ بِثَمَنٍ، وَلَا أُصْعِدُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِي مُحْرَقَاتٍ مَجَّانِيَّةً». فَٱشْتَرَى دَاوُدُ ٱلْبَيْدَرَ وَٱلْبَقَرَ بِخَمْسِينَ شَاقِلًا مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And the king said to Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
وَبَنَى دَاوُدُ هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحًا لِلرَّبِّ وَأَصْعَدَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ وَذَبَائِحَ سَلَامَةٍ، وَٱسْتَجَابَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَكَفَّتِ ٱلضَّرْبَةُ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And David built there an altar to the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
