نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ ٱلْمَلِكُ صَنَعَ تِمْثَالًا مِنْ ذَهَبٍ طُولُهُ سِتُّونَ ذِرَاعًا وَعَرْضُهُ سِتُّ أَذْرُعٍ، وَنَصَبَهُ فِي بُقْعَةِ دُورَا فِي وِلَايَةِ بَابِلَ. ١ 1
King Nebuchadnezzar made a golden statue sixty cubits high and six cubits wide, and he set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon.
ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِيَجْمَعَ ٱلْمَرَازِبَةَ وَٱلشِّحَنَ وَٱلْوُلَاةَ وَٱلْقُضَاةَ وَٱلْخَزَنَةَ وَٱلْفُقَهَاءَ وَٱلْمُفْتِينَ وَكُلَّ حُكَّامِ ٱلْوِلَايَاتِ، لِيَأْتُوا لِتَدْشِينِ ٱلتِّمْثَالِ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ ٱلْمَلِكُ. ٢ 2
Then King Nebuchadnezzar sent word to assemble the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the other officials of the provinces to attend the dedication of the statue he had set up.
حِينَئِذٍ ٱجْتَمَعَ ٱلْمَرَازِبَةُ وَٱلشِّحَنُ وَٱلْوُلَاةُ وَٱلْقُضَاةُ وَٱلْخَزَنَةُ وَٱلْفُقَهَاءُ وَٱلْمُفْتُونَ وَكُلُّ حُكَّامِ ٱلْوِلَايَاتِ لِتَدْشِينِ ٱلتِّمْثَالِ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ ٱلْمَلِكُ، وَوَقَفُوا أَمَامَ ٱلتِّمْثَالِ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ. ٣ 3
So the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the rulers of the provinces assembled for the dedication of the statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up, and they stood before it.
وَنَادَى مُنَادٍ بِشِدَّةٍ: «قَدْ أُمِرْتُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلشُّعُوبُ وَٱلْأُمَمُ وَٱلْأَلْسِنَةُ، ٤ 4
Then the herald loudly proclaimed, “O people of every nation and language, this is what you are commanded:
عِنْدَمَا تَسْمَعُونَ صَوْتَ ٱلْقَرْنِ وَٱلنَّايِ وَٱلْعُودِ وَٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلسِّنْطِيرِ وَٱلْمِزْمَارِ وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ ٱلْعَزْفِ، أَنْ تَخِرُّوا وَتَسْجُدُوا لِتِمْثَالِ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ ٱلْمَلِكُ. ٥ 5
As soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up.
وَمَنْ لَا يَخِرُّ وَيَسْجُدُ، فَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ يُلْقَى فِي وَسَطِ أَتُّونِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ». ٦ 6
And whoever does not fall down and worship will immediately be thrown into the blazing fiery furnace.”
لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ وَقْتَمَا سَمِعَ كُلُّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ صَوْتَ ٱلْقَرْنِ وَٱلنَّايِ وَٱلْعُودِ وَٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلسِّنْطِيرِ وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ ٱلْعَزْفِ، خَرَّ كُلُّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ وَٱلْأُمَمِ وَٱلْأَلْسِنَةِ وَسَجَدُوا لِتِمْثَالِ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبَهُ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ ٱلْمَلِكُ. ٧ 7
Therefore, as soon as all the people heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, and all kinds of music, the people of every nation and language would fall down and worship the golden statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ تَقَدَّمَ حِينَئِذٍ رِجَالٌ كَلْدَانِيُّونَ وَٱشْتَكَوْا عَلَى ٱلْيَهُودِ، ٨ 8
At this time some astrologers came forward and maliciously accused the Jews,
أَجَابُوا وَقَالُوا لِلْمَلِكِ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرَ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، عِشْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ! ٩ 9
saying to King Nebuchadnezzar, “O king, may you live forever!
أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ قَدْ أَصْدَرْتَ أَمْرًا بِأَنَّ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ يَسْمَعُ صَوْتَ ٱلْقَرْنِ وَٱلنَّايِ وَٱلْعُودِ وَٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلسِّنْطِيرِ وَٱلْمِزْمَارِ وَكُلِّ أَنْوَاعِ ٱلْعَزْفِ، يَخِرُّ وَيَسْجُدُ لِتِمْثَالِ ٱلذَّهَبِ. ١٠ 10
You, O king, have issued a decree that everyone who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music must fall down and worship the golden statue,
وَمَنْ لَا يَخِرُّ وَيَسْجُدُ فَإِنَّهُ يُلْقَى فِي وَسَطِ أَتُّونِ نَارٍ مُتَّقِدَةٍ. ١١ 11
and that whoever does not fall down and worship will be thrown into the blazing fiery furnace.
يُوجَدُ رِجَالٌ يَهُودٌ، ٱلَّذِينَ وَكَّلْتَهُمْ عَلَى أَعْمَالِ وِلَايَةِ بَابِلَ: شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ. هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ لَمْ يَجْعَلُوا لَكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱعْتِبَارًا. آلِهَتُكَ لَا يَعْبُدُونَ، وَلِتِمْثَالِ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبْتَ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ». ١٢ 12
But there are some Jews you have appointed to manage the province of Babylon—Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego—who have ignored you, O king, and have refused to serve your gods or worship the golden statue you have set up.”
حِينَئِذٍ أَمَرَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ بِغَضَبٍ وَغَيْظٍ بِإِحْضَارِ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ. فَأَتَوْا بِهَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالِ قُدَّامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ. ١٣ 13
Then Nebuchadnezzar, furious with rage, summoned Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. So these men were brought before the king,
فَأَجَابَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «تَعَمُّدًا يَا شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ لَا تَعْبُدُونَ آلِهَتِي وَلَا تَسْجُدُونَ لِتِمْثَالِ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبْتُ! ١٤ 14
and Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, is it true that you do not serve my gods or worship the golden statue I have set up?
فَإِنْ كُنْتُمُ ٱلْآنَ مُسْتَعِدِّينَ عِنْدَمَا تَسْمَعُونَ صَوْتَ ٱلْقَرْنِ وَٱلنَّايِ وَٱلْعُودِ وَٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلسِّنْطِيرِ وَٱلْمِزْمَارِ وَكُلَّ أَنْوَاعِ ٱلْعَزْفِ إِلَى أَنْ تَخِرُّوا وَتَسْجُدُوا لِلتِّمْثَالِ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلْتُهُ. وَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْجُدُوا فَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ تُلْقَوْنَ فِي وَسَطِ أَتُّونِ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلْمُتَّقِدَةِ. وَمَنْ هُوَ ٱلْإِلَهُ ٱلَّذِي يُنْقِذُكُمْ مِنْ يَدَيَّ؟». ١٥ 15
Now, if you are ready, as soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipes, and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the statue I have made. But if you refuse to worship, you will be thrown at once into the blazing fiery furnace. Then what god will be able to deliver you from my hands?”
فَأَجَابَ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ وَقَالُوا لِلمَلِكِ: «يَا نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ، لَا يَلْزَمُنَا أَنْ نُجِيبَكَ عَنْ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ. ١٦ 16
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego replied to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter.
هُوَذَا يُوجَدُ إِلَهُنَا ٱلَّذِي نَعْبُدُهُ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُنَجِّيَنَا مِنْ أَتُّونِ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلْمُتَّقِدَةِ، وَأَنْ يُنْقِذَنَا مِنْ يَدِكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ. ١٧ 17
If the God whom we serve exists, then He is able to deliver us from the blazing fiery furnace and from your hand, O king.
وَإِلَّا فَلْيَكُنْ مَعْلُومًا لَكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ، أَنَّنَا لَا نَعْبُدُ آلِهَتَكَ وَلَا نَسْجُدُ لِتِمْثَالِ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي نَصَبْتَهُ». ١٨ 18
But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden statue you have set up.”
حِينَئِذٍ ٱمْتَلَأَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ غَيْظًا وَتَغَيَّرَ مَنْظَرُ وَجْهِهِ عَلَى شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ، فَأَجَابَ وَأَمَرَ بِأَنْ يَحْمُوا ٱلْأَتُونَ سَبْعَةَ أَضْعَافٍ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا كَانَ مُعْتَادًا أَنْ يُحْمَى. ١٩ 19
At this, Nebuchadnezzar was filled with rage, and the expression on his face changed toward Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He gave orders to heat the furnace seven times hotter than usual,
وَأَمَرَ جَبَابِرَةَ ٱلْقُوَّةِ فِي جَيْشِهِ بِأَنْ يُوثِقُوا شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ وَيُلْقُوهُمْ فِي أَتُّونِ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلْمُتَّقِدَةِ. ٢٠ 20
and he commanded some mighty men of valor in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and throw them into the blazing fiery furnace.
ثُمَّ أُوثِقَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالُ فِي سَرَاوِيلِهِمْ وَأَقْمِصَتِهِمْ وَأَرْدِيَتِهِمْ وَلِبَاسِهِمْ وَأُلْقُوا فِي وَسَطِ أَتُّونِ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلْمُتَّقِدَةِ. ٢١ 21
So they were tied up, wearing robes, trousers, turbans, and other clothes, and they were thrown into the blazing fiery furnace.
وَمِنْ حَيْثُ إِنَّ كَلِمَةَ ٱلْمَلِكِ شَدِيدَةٌ وَٱلْأَتُونَ قَدْ حَمِيَ جِدًّا، قَتَلَ لَهِيبُ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلرِّجَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ رَفَعُوا شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ. ٢٢ 22
The king’s command was so urgent and the furnace so hot that the fiery flames killed the men who carried up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.
وَهَؤُلَاءِ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ ٱلرِّجَالِ، شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ، سَقَطُوا مُوثَقِينَ فِي وَسَطِ أَتُّونِ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلْمُتَّقِدَةِ. ٢٣ 23
And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, firmly bound, fell into the blazing fiery furnace.
حِينَئِذٍ تَحَيَّرَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَامَ مُسْرِعًا فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ لِمُشِيرِيهِ: «أَلَمْ نُلْقِ ثَلَاثَةَ رِجَالٍ مُوثَقِينَ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ؟» فَأَجَابُوا وَقَالُوا لِلْمَلِكِ: «صَحِيحٌ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ». ٢٤ 24
Suddenly King Nebuchadnezzar jumped up in amazement and asked his advisers, “Did we not throw three men, firmly bound, into the fire?” “Certainly, O king,” they replied.
أَجَابَ وَقَالَ: «هَا أَنَا نَاظِرٌ أَرْبَعَةَ رِجَالٍ مَحْلُولِينَ يَتَمَشَّوْنَ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ وَمَا بِهِمْ ضَرَرٌ، وَمَنْظَرُ ٱلرَّابِعِ شَبِيهٌ بِٱبْنِ ٱلْآلِهَةِ». ٢٥ 25
“Look!” he exclaimed. “I see four men, unbound and unharmed, walking around in the fire—and the fourth looks like a son of the gods!”
ثُمَّ ٱقْتَرَبَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ إِلَى بَابِ أَتُّونِ ٱلنَّارِ ٱلْمُتَّقِدَةِ وَأَجَابَ، فَقَالَ: «يَا شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو، يَا عَبِيدَ ٱللهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ، ٱخْرُجُوا وَتَعَالَوْا». فَخَرَجَ شَدْرَخُ وَمِيشَخُ وَعَبْدَنَغُو مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلنَّارِ. ٢٦ 26
Then Nebuchadnezzar approached the door of the blazing fiery furnace and called out, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out!” So Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came out of the fire,
فَٱجْتَمَعَتِ ٱلْمَرَازِبَةُ وَٱلشِّحَنُ وَٱلْوُلَاةُ وَمُشِيرُو ٱلْمَلِكِ وَرَأَوْا هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلرِّجَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ تَكُنْ لِلنَّارِ قُوَّةٌ عَلَى أَجْسَامِهِمْ، وَشَعْرَةٌ مِنْ رُؤُوسِهِمْ لَمْ تَحْتَرِقْ، وَسَرَاوِيلُهُمْ لَمْ تَتَغَيَّرْ، وَرَائِحَةُ ٱلنَّارِ لَمْ تَأْتِ عَلَيْهِمْ. ٢٧ 27
and when the satraps, prefects, governors, and royal advisers had gathered around, they saw that the fire had no effect on the bodies of these men. Not a hair of their heads was singed, their robes were unaffected, and there was no smell of fire on them.
فَأَجَابَ نَبُوخَذْنَصَّرُ وَقَالَ: «تَبَارَكَ إِلَهُ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ، ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَ مَلَاكَهُ وَأَنْقَذَ عَبِيدَهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّكَلُوا عَلَيْهِ وَغَيَّرُوا كَلِمَةَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَأَسْلَمُوا أَجْسَادَهُمْ لِكَيْلَا يَعْبُدُوا أَوْ يَسْجُدُوا لِإِلَهٍ غَيْرِ إِلَهِهِمْ. ٢٨ 28
Nebuchadnezzar declared, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent His angel and delivered His servants who trusted in Him. They violated the king’s command and risked their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God.
فَمِنِّي قَدْ صَدَرَ أَمْرٌ بِأَنَّ كُلَّ شَعْبٍ وَأُمَّةٍ وَلِسَانٍ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِٱلسُّوءِ عَلَى إِلَهِ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ، فَإِنَّهُمْ يُصَيَّرُونَ إِرْبًا إِرْبًا، وَتُجْعَلُ بُيُوتُهُمْ مَزْبَلَةً، إِذْ لَيْسَ إِلَهٌ آخَرُ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُنَجِّيَ هَكَذَا». ٢٩ 29
Therefore I decree that the people of any nation or language who say anything offensive against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego will be cut into pieces and their houses reduced to rubble. For there is no other god who can deliver in this way.”
حِينَئِذٍ قَدَّمَ ٱلْمَلِكُ شَدْرَخَ وَمِيشَخَ وَعَبْدَنَغُوَ فِي وِلَايَةِ بَابِلَ. ٣٠ 30
Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the province of Babylon.
