اَلتَّثْنِيَة 16

١ 1 «اِحْفَظْ شَهْرَ أَبِيبَ وَٱعْمَلْ فِصْحًا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، لِأَنَّهُ فِي شَهْرِ أَبِيبَ أَخْرَجَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مِنْ مِصْرَ لَيْلًا.

Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover to YHWH your God; for in the month of Abib YHWH your God brought you forth out of Egypt by night.

٢ 2 فَتَذْبَحُ ٱلْفِصْحَ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ غَنَمًا وَبَقَرًا فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيُحِلَّ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ.

You shall sacrifice the Passover to YHWH your God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which YHWH shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.

٣ 3 لَا تَأْكُلْ عَلَيْهِ خَمِيرًا. سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ تَأْكُلُ عَلَيْهِ فَطِيرًا، خُبْزَ ٱلْمَشَقَّةِ، لِأَنَّكَ بِعَجَلَةٍ خَرَجْتَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، لِكَيْ تَذْكُرَ يَوْمَ خُرُوجِكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِكَ.

You shall eat no leavened bread with it. You shall eat unleavened bread with it seven days, even the bread of affliction; for you came forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that you may remember the day when you came forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of your life.

٤ 4 وَلَا يُرَ عِنْدَكَ خَمِيرٌ فِي جَمِيعِ تُخُومِكَ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ، وَلَا يَبِتْ شَيْءٌ مِنَ ٱللَّحْمِ ٱلَّذِي تَذْبَحُ مَسَاءً فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ إِلَى ٱلْغَدِ.

No yeast shall be seen with you in all your borders seven days; neither shall any of the flesh, which you sacrifice the first day at evening, remain all night until the morning.

٥ 5 لَا يَحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَذْبَحَ ٱلْفِصْحَ فِي أَحَدِ أَبْوَابِكَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ،

You may not sacrifice the Passover within any of your gates, which YHWH your God gives you;

٦ 6 بَلْ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِيُحِلَّ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ. هُنَاكَ تَذْبَحُ ٱلْفِصْحَ مَسَاءً نَحْوَ غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ فِي مِيعَادِ خُرُوجِكَ مِنْ مِصْرَ،

but at the place which YHWH your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell in, there you shall sacrifice the Passover at evening, at the going down of the sun, at the season that you came forth out of Egypt.

٧ 7 وَتَطْبُخُ وَتَأْكُلُ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، ثُمَّ تَنْصَرِفُ فِي ٱلْغَدِ وَتَذْهَبُ إِلَى خِيَامِكَ.

You shall roast and eat it in the place which YHWH your God shall choose: and you shall turn in the morning, and go to your tents.

٨ 8 سِتَّةَ أَيَّامٍ تَأْكُلُ فَطِيرًا، وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ ٱعْتِكَافٌ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. لَا تَعْمَلْ فِيهِ عَمَلًا.

Six days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the seventh day shall be a solemn assembly to YHWH your God; you shall do no work.

٩ 9 «سَبْعَةَ أَسَابِيعَ تَحْسُبُ لَكَ. مِنِ ٱبْتِدَاءِ ٱلْمِنْجَلِ فِي ٱلزَّرْعِ، تَبْتَدِئُ أَنْ تَحْسُبَ سَبْعَةَ أَسَابِيعَ.

You shall count for yourselves seven weeks: from the time you begin to put the sickle to the standing grain you shall begin to number seven weeks.

١٠ 10 وَتَعْمَلُ عِيدَ أَسَابِيعَ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ عَلَى قَدْرِ مَا تَسْمَحُ يَدُكَ أَنْ تُعْطِيَ، كَمَا يُبَارِكُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ.

You shall keep the feast of weeks to YHWH your God with a tribute of a freewill offering of your hand, which you shall give, according as YHWH your God blesses you:

١١ 11 وَتَفْرَحُ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ أَنْتَ وَٱبْنُكَ وَٱبْنَتُكَ وَعَبْدُكَ وَأَمَتُكَ وَٱللَّاوِيُّ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَبْوَابِكَ، وَٱلْغَرِيبُ وَٱلْيَتِيمُ وَٱلْأَرْمَلَةُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي وَسَطِكَ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِيُحِلَّ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ.

and you shall rejoice before YHWH your God, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your male servant, and your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates, and the foreigner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are in the midst of you, in the place which YHWH your God shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.

١٢ 12 وَتَذْكُرُ أَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَبْدًا فِي مِصْرَ وَتَحْفَظُ، وَتَعْمَلُ هَذِهِ ٱلْفَرَائِضَ.

You shall remember that you were a bondservant in Egypt: and you shall observe and do these statutes.

١٣ 13 «تَعْمَلُ لِنَفْسِكَ عِيدَ ٱلْمَظَالِّ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ عِنْدَمَا تَجْمَعُ مِنْ بَيْدَرِكَ وَمِنْ مِعْصَرَتِكَ.

You shall keep the feast of tents seven days, after that you have gathered in from your threshing floor and from your winepress:

١٤ 14 وَتَفْرَحُ فِي عِيدِكَ أَنْتَ وَٱبْنُكَ وَٱبْنَتُكَ وَعَبْدُكَ وَأَمَتُكَ وَاللَّاوِيُّ وَٱلْغَرِيبُ وَٱلْيَتِيمُ وَٱلْأَرْمَلَةُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي أَبْوَابِكَ.

and you shall rejoice in your feast, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your male servant, and your female servant, and the Levite, and the foreigner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within your gates.

١٥ 15 سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ تُعَيِّدُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ يُبَارِكُكَ فِي كُلِّ مَحْصُولِكَ وَفِي كُلِّ عَمَلِ يَدَيْكَ، فَلَا تَكُونُ إِلَّا فَرِحًا.

You shall keep a feast to YHWH your God seven days in the place which YHWH shall choose; because YHWH your God will bless you in all your increase, and in all the work of your hands, and you shall be altogether joyful.

١٦ 16 «ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ يَحْضُرُ جَمِيعُ ذُكُورِكَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ، فِي عِيدِ ٱلْفَطِيرِ وَعِيدِ ٱلْأَسَابِيعِ وَعِيدِ ٱلْمَظَالِّ. وَلَا يَحْضُرُوا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ فَارِغِينَ.

Three times in a year shall all your males appear before YHWH your God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tents; and they shall not appear before YHWH empty:

١٧ 17 كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ حَسْبَمَا تُعْطِي يَدُهُ، كَبَرَكَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ.

every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of YHWH your God which he has given you.

١٨ 18 «قُضَاةً وَعُرَفَاءَ تَجْعَلُ لَكَ فِي جَمِيعِ أَبْوَابِكَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ حَسَبَ أَسْبَاطِكَ، فَيَقْضُونَ لِلشَّعْبِ قَضَاءً عَادِلًا.

You shall make judges and officers in all your gates, which YHWH your God gives you, according to your tribes; and they shall judge the people with righteous judgment.

١٩ 19 لَا تُحَرِّفِ ٱلْقَضَاءَ، وَلَا تَنْظُرْ إِلَى ٱلْوُجُوهِ، وَلَا تَأْخُذْ رَشْوَةً لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّشْوَةَ تُعْمِي أَعْيُنَ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ وَتُعَوِّجُ كَلَامَ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ.

You shall not wrest justice: you shall not respect persons; neither shall you take a bribe; for a bribe does blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.

٢٠ 20 ٱلْعَدْلَ ٱلْعَدْلَ تَتَّبِعُ، لِكَيْ تَحْيَا وَتَمْتَلِكَ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ.

You shall follow that which is altogether just, that you may live, and inherit the land which YHWH your God gives you.

٢١ 21 «لَا تَنْصِبْ لِنَفْسِكَ سَارِيَةً مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ مَّا بِجَانِبِ مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ ٱلَّذِي تَصْنَعُهُ لَكَ،

You shall not plant for yourselves an Asherah of any kind of tree beside the altar of YHWH your God, which you shall make for yourselves.

٢٢ 22 وَلَا تُقِمْ لَكَ نَصْبًا. ٱلشَّيْءَ ٱلَّذِي يُبْغِضُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ.

Neither shall you set yourself up a pillar; which YHWH your God hates.
