< 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
These are the statutes and the judgments which you shall observe to do in the land which Adonai, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess it, all the days that you live on the earth.
تُخْرِبُونَ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَمَاكِنِ حَيْثُ عَبَدَتِ ٱلْأُمَمُ ٱلَّتِي تَرِثُونَهَا آلِهَتَهَا عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلشَّامِخَةِ، وَعَلَى ٱلتِّلَالِ، وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ. ٢ 2
You shall surely destroy all the places in which the nations that you shall dispossess abad ·served· their deities, on the high mountains, and on the hills, and under every green tree.
وَتَهْدِمُونَ مَذَابِحَهُمْ، وَتُكَسِّرُونَ أَنْصَابَهُمْ، وَتُحْرِقُونَ سَوَارِيَهُمْ بِٱلنَّارِ، وَتُقَطِّعُونَ تَمَاثِيلَ آلِهَتِهِمْ، وَتَمْحُونَ ٱسْمَهُمْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَكَانِ. ٣ 3
You shall break down their altars, and dash their pillars in pieces, and burn their Asherah poles with fire. You shall cut down the engraved images of their deities. You shall destroy their name out of that place.
لَا تَفْعَلُوا هَكَذَا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ. ٤ 4
You shall not do so to Adonai your God.
بَلِ ٱلْمَكَانُ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِكُمْ لِيَضَعَ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ، سُكْنَاهُ تَطْلُبُونَ وَإِلَى هُنَاكَ تَأْتُونَ، ٥ 5
But to the place which Adonai your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, you shall seek his habitation, and there you shall come.
وَتُقَدِّمُونَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ: مُحْرَقَاتِكُمْ وَذَبَائِحَكُمْ وَعُشُورَكُمْ وَرَفَائِعَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَنُذُورَكُمْ وَنَوَافِلَكُمْ وَأَبْكَارَ بَقَرِكُمْ وَغَنَمِكُمْ، ٦ 6
There you shall bring your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, your vows, your free will offerings, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock.
وَتَأْكُلُونَ هُنَاكَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَتَفْرَحُونَ بِكُلِّ مَا تَمْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِ أَيْدِيكُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَبُيُوتُكُمْ كَمَا بَارَكَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. ٧ 7
There you shall eat before Adonai your God, and you shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which Adonai 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 after all the things that we do here today, every man whatever is right in his own eyes;
لِأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَدْخُلُوا حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ إِلَى ٱلْمَقَرِّ وَٱلنَّصِيبِ ٱللَّذَيْنِ يُعْطِيكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. ٩ 9
for you haven’t yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which Adonai your God gives you.
فَمَتَى عَبَرْتُمُ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ وَسَكَنْتُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي يَقْسِمُهَا لَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ، وَأَرَاحَكُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوَالَيْكُمْ وَسَكَنْتُمْ آمِنِينَ، ١٠ 10
But when you go over the Jordan [Descender], and dwell in the land which Adonai your God causes you to inherit, and he gives you rest from all your enemies around you, so that you dwell in safety;
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
then it shall happen that to the place which Adonai your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there, there you shall bring all that I enjoin you: your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the wave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which you vow to Adonai.
وَتَفْرَحُونَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَبَنُوكُمْ وَبَنَاتُكُمْ وَعَبِيدُكُمْ وَإِمَاؤُكُمْ، وَٱللَّاوِيُّ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَبْوَابِكُمْ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ قِسْمٌ وَلَا نَصِيبٌ مَعَكُمْ. ١٢ 12
You shall rejoice before Adonai your God, you, and your sons, your daughters, your male servants, your female servants, and the Levite [Descendant of United with] who is within your gates, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
«اِحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تُصْعِدَ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ تَرَاهُ. ١٣ 13
Be careful that you don’t offer your burnt offerings in every place that you see;
بَلْ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي أَحَدِ أَسْبَاطِكَ. هُنَاكَ تُصْعِدُ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ، وَهُنَاكَ تَعْمَلُ كُلَّ مَا أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهِ. ١٤ 14
but in the place which Adonai chooses in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I enjoin you.
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
Notwithstanding, you may kill and eat meat within all your gates, after all the desire of your soul, according to Adonai your God’s blessing which he has given you. The unclean and the clean may eat of it, as of the gazelle, and as of the deer.
وَأَمَّا ٱلدَّمُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْهُ. عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَسْفِكُهُ كَٱلْمَاءِ. ١٦ 16
Only you shall not eat the blood. You shall pour it out on the earth like 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 may not eat within your gates the tithe of your grain, or of your new wine, or of your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your free will offerings, nor the wave offering of your hand;
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 you shall eat them before Adonai your God in the place which Adonai your God shall choose, you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, and the Levite [Descendant of United with] who is within your gates. You shall rejoice before Adonai your God in all that you put your hand to.
اِحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تَتْرُكَ ٱللَّاوِيَّ، كُلَّ أَيَّامِكَ عَلَى أَرْضِكَ. ١٩ 19
Be careful that you don’t forsake the Levite as long as you live in your land.
«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
When Adonai your God enlarges your border, as he has promised you, and you shall say, “I want to eat meat,” because your soul desires to eat meat; you may eat meat, after 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
If the place which Adonai your God shall choose, to put his name there, is too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which Adonai has given you, as I have enjoined you; and you may eat within your gates, after all the desire of your soul.
كَمَا يُؤْكَلُ ٱلظَّبْيُ وَٱلْإِيَّلُ هَكَذَا تَأْكُلُهُ. ٱلنَّجِسُ وَٱلطَّاهِرُ يَأْكُلَانِهِ سَوَاءً. ٢٢ 22
Even as the gazelle and as the deer is eaten, so you shall eat of it. The unclean and the clean may eat of it alike.
لَكِنِ ٱحْتَرِزْ أَنْ لَا تَأْكُلَ ٱلدَّمَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلدَّمَ هُوَ ٱلنَّفْسُ. فَلَا تَأْكُلِ ٱلنَّفْسَ مَعَ ٱللَّحْمِ. ٢٣ 23
Only be sure that you don’t eat the blood; for the blood is the life. You shall not eat the life with the meat.
لَا تَأْكُلْهُ. عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَسْفِكُهُ كَٱلْمَاءِ. ٢٤ 24
You shall not eat it. You shall pour it out on the earth like 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 go well with you, and with your children after you, when you shall do that which is right in Adonai’s eyes.
وَأَمَّا أَقْدَاسُكَ ٱلَّتِي لَكَ وَنُذُورُكَ، فَتَحْمِلُهَا وَتَذْهَبُ إِلَى ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٦ 26
Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take, and go to the place which Adonai shall choose.
فَتَعْمَلُ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ: ٱللَّحْمَ وَٱلدَّمَ عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. وَأَمَّا ذَبَائِحُكَ فَيُسْفَكُ دَمُهَا عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، وَٱللَّحْمُ تَأْكُلُهُ. ٢٧ 27
You shall offer your burnt offerings, the meat and the blood, on Adonai your God’s altar; and the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out on Adonai your God’s altar; and you shall eat the meat.
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
Observe and sh'ma ·hear obey· all these words which I enjoin you, that it may go well with you, and with your children after you forever, when you do that which is good and right in Adonai your God’s eyes.
«مَتَى قَرَضَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ ٱلْأُمَمَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنْتَ ذَاهِبٌ إِلَيْهِمْ لِتَرِثَهُمْ، وَوَرِثْتَهُمْ وَسَكَنْتَ أَرْضَهُمْ، ٢٩ 29
When Adonai your God cuts off the nations from before you, where you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them, 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
be careful that you are not ensnared to follow them, after that they are destroyed from before you; and that you not inquire after their deities, saying, “How do these nations abad ·serve· their deities? 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 Adonai your God; for every abomination to Adonai, which he hates, have they done to their deities; for they even burn their sons and their daughters in the fire to their deities.
كُلُّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ ٱحْرِصُوا لِتَعْمَلُوهُ. لَا تَزِدْ عَلَيْهِ وَلَا تُنَقِّصْ مِنْهُ. ٣٢ 32
Whatever thing I enjoin you, that you shall observe to do. You shall not add to it, nor take away from it.
