< اَلتَّثْنِيَة 12 >

«هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْفَرَائِضُ وَٱلْأَحْكَامُ ٱلَّتِي تَحْفَظُونَ لِتَعْمَلُوهَا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ آبَائِكَ لِتَمْتَلِكَهَا، كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي تَحْيَوْنَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ: ١ 1
And these [are] the ordinances and the judgements, which you shall observe to do in the land, which the Lord God of your fathers gives you for an inheritance, all the days which you live upon the land.
تُخْرِبُونَ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَمَاكِنِ حَيْثُ عَبَدَتِ ٱلْأُمَمُ ٱلَّتِي تَرِثُونَهَا آلِهَتَهَا عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلشَّامِخَةِ، وَعَلَى ٱلتِّلَالِ، وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ. ٢ 2
You shall utterly destroy all the places in which they served their gods, whose [land] you inherit, on the high mountains and on the hills, and under the thick tree.
وَتَهْدِمُونَ مَذَابِحَهُمْ، وَتُكَسِّرُونَ أَنْصَابَهُمْ، وَتُحْرِقُونَ سَوَارِيَهُمْ بِٱلنَّارِ، وَتُقَطِّعُونَ تَمَاثِيلَ آلِهَتِهِمْ، وَتَمْحُونَ ٱسْمَهُمْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَكَانِ. ٣ 3
And you shall destroy their altars, and break in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their groves, and you shall burn with fire the graven images of their gods, and you shall abolish their name out of that place.
لَا تَفْعَلُوا هَكَذَا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ. ٤ 4
You shall not do so to the Lord your God.
بَلِ ٱلْمَكَانُ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِكُمْ لِيَضَعَ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ، سُكْنَاهُ تَطْلُبُونَ وَإِلَى هُنَاكَ تَأْتُونَ، ٥ 5
But in the place which the Lord your God shall choose in one of your cities to name his name there, and to be called upon, you shall even seek [him] out and go there.
وَتُقَدِّمُونَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ: مُحْرَقَاتِكُمْ وَذَبَائِحَكُمْ وَعُشُورَكُمْ وَرَفَائِعَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَنُذُورَكُمْ وَنَوَافِلَكُمْ وَأَبْكَارَ بَقَرِكُمْ وَغَنَمِكُمْ، ٦ 6
And you shall carry there your whole burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your first fruits, and your vowed-offerings, and your free will offerings, and your offerings of thanksgiving, the firstborn of your herds, and of your flocks.
وَتَأْكُلُونَ هُنَاكَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَتَفْرَحُونَ بِكُلِّ مَا تَمْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِ أَيْدِيكُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَبُيُوتُكُمْ كَمَا بَارَكَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. ٧ 7
And you shall eat there before the Lord your God, and you shall rejoice in all the things on which you shall lay your hand, you and your houses, as the Lord your God has blessed you.
«لَا تَعْمَلُوا حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا نَحْنُ عَامِلُونَ هُنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، أَيْ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مَهْمَا صَلَحَ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ. ٨ 8
You shall not do altogether as we do here today, every man that which is pleasing in his own sight.
لِأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَدْخُلُوا حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ إِلَى ٱلْمَقَرِّ وَٱلنَّصِيبِ ٱللَّذَيْنِ يُعْطِيكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. ٩ 9
For hitherto you have not arrived at the rest and the inheritance, which the Lord our God gives you.
فَمَتَى عَبَرْتُمُ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ وَسَكَنْتُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي يَقْسِمُهَا لَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ، وَأَرَاحَكُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوَالَيْكُمْ وَسَكَنْتُمْ آمِنِينَ، ١٠ 10
And you shall go over Jordan, and shall dwell in the land, which the Lord our God takes as an inheritance for you; and he shall give you rest from all your enemies round about, and you shall dwell safely.
فَٱلْمَكَانُ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ لِيُحِلَّ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ، تَحْمِلُونَ إِلَيْهِ كُلَّ مَا أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ: مُحْرَقَاتِكُمْ وَذَبَائِحَكُمْ وَعُشُورَكُمْ وَرَفَائِعَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَكُلَّ خِيَارِ نُذُورِكُمُ ٱلَّتِي تَنْذُرُونَهَا لِلرَّبِّ. ١١ 11
And there shall be a place which the Lord your God shall choose for his name to be called there, there shall you bring all things that I order you today; your whole burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and the first fruits of your hands, and every choice gift of yours, whatever you shall vow to the Lord your God.
وَتَفْرَحُونَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَبَنُوكُمْ وَبَنَاتُكُمْ وَعَبِيدُكُمْ وَإِمَاؤُكُمْ، وَٱللَّاوِيُّ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَبْوَابِكُمْ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ قِسْمٌ وَلَا نَصِيبٌ مَعَكُمْ. ١٢ 12
And you shall rejoice before the Lord your God, you and your sons, and your daughters, and your menservants and your maidservants, and the Levite that is at your gates; because he has no portion or inheritance with you.
«اِحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تُصْعِدَ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ تَرَاهُ. ١٣ 13
Take heed to yourself that you offer not your whole burnt offerings in any place which you shall see;
بَلْ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي أَحَدِ أَسْبَاطِكَ. هُنَاكَ تُصْعِدُ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ، وَهُنَاكَ تَعْمَلُ كُلَّ مَا أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهِ. ١٤ 14
save in the place which the Lord your God shall choose, in one of your tribes, there shall you offer your whole burnt offerings, and there shall you do all things whatever I charge you this day.
وَلَكِنْ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا تَشْتَهِي نَفْسُكَ تَذْبَحُ وَتَأْكُلُ لَحْمًا فِي جَمِيعِ أَبْوَابِكَ، حَسَبَ بَرَكَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ. ٱلنَّجِسُ وَٱلطَّاهِرُ يَأْكُلَانِهِ كَٱلظَّبْيِ وَٱلْإِيَّلِ. ١٥ 15
But you shall kill according to all your desire, and shall eat flesh according to the blessing of the Lord your God, which he has given you in every city; the unclean that is within you and the clean shall eat it on equal terms, as the doe or the stag.
وَأَمَّا ٱلدَّمُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْهُ. عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَسْفِكُهُ كَٱلْمَاءِ. ١٦ 16
Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it out on the ground as water.
لَا يَحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ فِي أَبْوَابِكَ عُشْرَ حِنْطَتِكَ وَخَمْرِكَ وَزَيْتِكَ، وَلَا أَبْكَارَ بَقَرِكَ وَغَنَمِكَ، وَلَا شَيْئًا مِنْ نُذُورِكَ ٱلَّتِي تَنْذُرُ، وَنَوَافِلِكَ وَرَفَائِعِ يَدِكَ. ١٧ 17
You shall not be able to eat in your cities the tithe of your corn, and of your wine, and of your oil, the firstborn of your herd and of your flock, and all [your] vows as many as you shall have vowed, and your thank-offerings, and the first fruits of your hands.
بَلْ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ تَأْكُلُهَا فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، أَنْتَ وَٱبْنُكَ وَٱبْنَتُكَ وَعَبْدُكَ وَأَمَتُكَ وَٱللَّاوِيُّ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَبْوَابِكَ، وَتَفْرَحُ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ بِكُلِّ مَا ٱمْتَدَّتْ إِلَيْهِ يَدُكَ. ١٨ 18
But before the Lord your God you shall eat it, in the place which the Lord your God shall choose for himself, you, and your son, and your daughter, your man-servant, and your maidservant, and the stranger that is within your gates; and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God, on whatever you shall lay your hand.
اِحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تَتْرُكَ ٱللَّاوِيَّ، كُلَّ أَيَّامِكَ عَلَى أَرْضِكَ. ١٩ 19
Take heed to yourself that you do not desert the Levite all the time that you live upon the earth.
«إِذَا وَسَّعَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ تُخُومَكَ كَمَا كَلَّمَكَ وَقُلْتَ: آكُلُ لَحْمًا، لِأَنَّ نَفْسَكَ تَشْتَهِي أَنْ تَأْكُلَ لَحْمًا. فَمِنْ كُلِّ مَا تَشْتَهِي نَفْسُكَ تَأْكُلُ لَحْمًا. ٢٠ 20
And if the Lord your God shall enlarge your borders, as he said to you, and you shall say, I will eat flesh; if your soul should desire to eat flesh, you shall eat flesh according to all the desire of your soul.
إِذَا كَانَ ٱلْمَكَانُ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِيَضَعَ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ بَعِيدًا عَنْكَ، فَٱذْبَحْ مِنْ بَقَرِكَ وَغَنَمِكَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ كَمَا أَوْصَيْتُكَ، وَكُلْ فِي أَبْوَابِكَ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا ٱشْتَهَتْ نَفْسُكَ. ٢١ 21
And if the place be far from you, which the Lord your God shall choose for himself, that his name be called upon it, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock which God shall have given you, even as I commanded you, and you shall eat in your cities according to the desire of your soul.
كَمَا يُؤْكَلُ ٱلظَّبْيُ وَٱلْإِيَّلُ هَكَذَا تَأْكُلُهُ. ٱلنَّجِسُ وَٱلطَّاهِرُ يَأْكُلَانِهِ سَوَاءً. ٢٢ 22
As the doe and the stag are eaten, so shall you eat it; the unclean in you and the clean shall eat it in like manner.
لَكِنِ ٱحْتَرِزْ أَنْ لَا تَأْكُلَ ٱلدَّمَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلدَّمَ هُوَ ٱلنَّفْسُ. فَلَا تَأْكُلِ ٱلنَّفْسَ مَعَ ٱللَّحْمِ. ٢٣ 23
Take diligent heed that you eat no blood, for blood [is] the life of it; the life shall not be eaten with the flesh.
لَا تَأْكُلْهُ. عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَسْفِكُهُ كَٱلْمَاءِ. ٢٤ 24
You shall not eat [it]; you shall pour it out on the ground as water.
لَا تَأْكُلْهُ لِكَيْ يَكُونَ لَكَ وَلِأَوْلَادِكَ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ خَيْرٌ، إِذَا عَمِلْتَ ٱلْحَقَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢٥ 25
You shall not eat it, that it may be well with you and with your sons after you, if you shall do that which is good and pleasing before the Lord your God.
وَأَمَّا أَقْدَاسُكَ ٱلَّتِي لَكَ وَنُذُورُكَ، فَتَحْمِلُهَا وَتَذْهَبُ إِلَى ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٦ 26
But you shall take your holy things, if you have any, and your vowed-offerings, and come to the place which the Lord your God shall choose to have his name named upon it.
فَتَعْمَلُ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ: ٱللَّحْمَ وَٱلدَّمَ عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. وَأَمَّا ذَبَائِحُكَ فَيُسْفَكُ دَمُهَا عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، وَٱللَّحْمُ تَأْكُلُهُ. ٢٧ 27
And you shall sacrifice your whole burnt offerings, you shall offer the flesh upon the altar of the Lord your God; but the blood of your sacrifices you shall pour out at the foot of the altar of the Lord your God, but the flesh you shall eat.
اِحْفَظْ وَٱسْمَعْ جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَاتِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا لِكَيْ يَكُونَ لَكَ وَلِأَوْلَادِكَ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ خَيْرٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، إِذَا عَمِلْتَ ٱلصَّالِحَ وَٱلْحَقَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. ٢٨ 28
Beware and listen, and you shall do all the commands which I charge you, that it may be well with you and with your sons for ever, if you shall do that which is pleasing and good before the Lord your God.
«مَتَى قَرَضَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ ٱلْأُمَمَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنْتَ ذَاهِبٌ إِلَيْهِمْ لِتَرِثَهُمْ، وَوَرِثْتَهُمْ وَسَكَنْتَ أَرْضَهُمْ، ٢٩ 29
And if the Lord your God shall utterly destroy the nations, to whom you go in there to inherit their land, from before you, and you shall inherit it, and dwell in their land;
فَٱحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تُصَادَ وَرَاءَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا بَادُوا مِنْ أَمَامِكَ، وَمِنْ أَنْ تَسْأَلَ عَنْ آلِهَتِهِمْ قَائِلًا: كَيْفَ عَبَدَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْأُمَمُ آلِهَتَهُمْ، فَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَفْعَلُ هَكَذَا؟ ٣٠ 30
take heed to yourself that you seek not to follow them after they are destroyed before you, saying, How do these nations act towards their gods? I will do likewise.
لَا تَعْمَلْ هَكَذَا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ عَمِلُوا لِآلِهَتِهِمْ كُلَّ رِجْسٍ لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ مِمَّا يَكْرَهُهُ، إِذْ أَحْرَقُوا حَتَّى بَنِيهِمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ بِٱلنَّارِ لِآلِهَتِهِمْ. ٣١ 31
You shall not do so to your God; for they have sacrificed to their gods the abominations of the Lord which he hates, for they burn their sons and their daughters in fire to their gods.
كُلُّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ ٱحْرِصُوا لِتَعْمَلُوهُ. لَا تَزِدْ عَلَيْهِ وَلَا تُنَقِّصْ مِنْهُ. ٣٢ 32
Every word that I command you this day, it shall you observe to do: you shall not add to it, nor diminish from it.
