اَلتَّثْنِيَة 28
| «وَإِنْ سَمِعْتَ سَمْعًا لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ لِتَحْرِصَ أَنْ تَعْمَلَ بِجَمِيعِ وَصَايَاهُ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، يَجْعَلُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مُسْتَعْلِيًا عَلَى جَمِيعِ قَبَائِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، | ١ 1 |
“So then, if you will listen to the voice of the Lord your God, so as to keep and do all of his commandments, which I instruct to you this day, the Lord your God will cause you to be more exalted than all the nations which exist upon the earth.
| وَتَأْتِي عَلَيْكَ جَمِيعُ هَذِهِ ٱلْبَرَكَاتِ وَتُدْرِكُكَ، إِذَا سَمِعْتَ لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. | ٢ 2 |
And all these blessings shall come to you and take hold of you, but only if you listen to his precepts.
| مُبَارَكًا تَكُونُ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَمُبَارَكًا تَكُونُ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ. | ٣ 3 |
Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed in the field.
| وَمُبَارَكَةً تَكُونُ ثَمَرَةُ بَطْنِكَ وَثَمَرَةُ أَرْضِكَ وَثَمَرَةُ بَهَائِمِكَ، نِتَاجُ بَقَرِكَ وَإِنَاثُ غَنَمِكَ. | ٤ 4 |
Blessed shall be the fruit of your loins, and the fruit of your land, and the fruit of your cattle, the droves of your herds, and the folds of your sheep.
| مُبَارَكَةً تَكُونُ سَلَّتُكَ وَمِعْجَنُكَ. | ٥ 5 |
Blessed shall be your barns, and blessed your storehouses.
| مُبَارَكًا تَكُونُ فِي دُخُولِكَ، وَمُبَارَكًا تَكُونُ فِي خُرُوجِكَ. | ٦ 6 |
Blessed shall you be entering and departing.
| يَجْعَلُ ٱلرَّبُّ أَعْدَاءَكَ ٱلْقَائِمِينَ عَلَيْكَ مُنْهَزِمِينَ أَمَامَكَ. فِي طَرِيقٍ وَاحِدَةٍ يَخْرُجُونَ عَلَيْكَ، وَفِي سَبْعِ طُرُقٍ يَهْرُبُونَ أَمَامَكَ. | ٧ 7 |
The Lord will grant that your enemies, who rise up against you, will fall down in your sight. They will come against you by one way, and they will flee from your face by seven ways.
| يَأْمُرُ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِٱلْبَرَكَةِ فِي خَزَائِنِكَ وَفِي كُلِّ مَا تَمْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِ يَدُكَ، وَيُبَارِكُكَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. | ٨ 8 |
The Lord will send forth a blessing upon your cellars, and upon all the works of your hands. And he will bless you in the land that you shall receive.
| يُقِيمُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِنَفْسِهِ شَعْبًا مُقَدَّسًا كَمَا حَلَفَ لَكَ، إِذَا حَفِظْتَ وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ وَسَلَكْتَ فِي طُرُقِهِ. | ٩ 9 |
The Lord will raise you up as a holy people for himself, just as he swore to you, if you will keep the commandments of the Lord your God, and walk in his ways.
| فَيَرَى جَمِيعُ شُعُوبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ أَنَّ ٱسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ قَدْ سُمِّيَ عَلَيْكَ وَيَخَافُونَ مِنْكَ. | ١٠ 10 |
And all the peoples of the earth shall see that the name of the Lord has been invoked over you, and they shall fear you.
| وَيَزِيدُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ خَيْرًا فِي ثَمَرَةِ بَطْنِكَ وَثَمَرَةِ بَهَائِمِكَ وَثَمَرَةِ أَرْضِكَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِآبَائِكَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَكَ. | ١١ 11 |
The Lord will cause you to be abundant in every good thing: in the fruit of your womb, and in the fruit of your cattle, and in the fruit of your land, which the Lord swore to your fathers that he would give to you.
| يَفْتَحُ لَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ كَنْزَهُ ٱلصَّالِحَ، ٱلسَّمَاءَ، لِيُعْطِيَ مَطَرَ أَرْضِكَ فِي حِينِهِ، وَلْيُبَارِكَ كُلَّ عَمَلِ يَدِكَ، فَتُقْرِضُ أُمَمًا كَثِيرَةً وَأَنْتَ لَا تَقْتَرِضُ. | ١٢ 12 |
The Lord will open his excellent treasury, the heavens, so that it may distribute rain in due time. And he will bless all the works of your hands. And you shall lend to many nations, but you yourself will borrow nothing from anyone.
| وَيَجْعَلُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ رَأْسًا لَا ذَنَبًا، وَتَكُونُ فِي ٱلِٱرْتِفَاعِ فَقَطْ وَلَا تَكُونُ فِي ٱلِٱنْحِطَاطِ، إِذَا سَمِعْتَ لِوَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، لِتَحْفَظَ وَتَعْمَلَ | ١٣ 13 |
And the Lord will appoint you as the head, and not as the tail. And you shall be always above, and not beneath. But only if you will listen to the commandments of the Lord your God, which I entrust to you this day, and will keep and do them,
| وَلَا تَزِيغَ عَنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْكَلِمَاتِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ يَمِينًا أَوْ شِمَالًا، لِكَيْ تَذْهَبَ وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى لِتَعْبُدَهَا. | ١٤ 14 |
and will not turn aside from them, neither to the right, nor to the left, nor follow strange gods, nor worship them.
| «وَلَكِنْ إِنْ لَمْ تَسْمَعْ لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ لِتَحْرِصَ أَنْ تَعْمَلَ بِجَمِيعِ وَصَايَاهُ وَفَرَائِضِهِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، تَأْتِي عَلَيْكَ جَمِيعُ هَذِهِ ٱللَّعَنَاتِ وَتُدْرِكُكَ: | ١٥ 15 |
But if you are not willing to listen to the voice of the Lord your God, so as to keep and do all his commandments and ceremonies, which I instruct to you this day, all these curses shall come to you, and take hold of you.
| مَلْعُونًا تَكُونُ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَمَلْعُونًا تَكُونُ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ. | ١٦ 16 |
Cursed shall you be in the city, cursed in the field.
| مَلْعُونَةً تَكُونُ سَلَّتُكَ وَمِعْجَنُكَ. | ١٧ 17 |
Cursed shall be your barn, and cursed your storehouses.
| مَلْعُونَةً تَكُونُ ثَمَرَةُ بَطْنِكَ وَثَمَرَةُ أَرْضِكَ، نِتَاجُ بَقَرِكَ وَإِنَاثُ غَنَمِكَ. | ١٨ 18 |
Cursed shall be the fruit of your loins, and the fruit of your land, the herds of your oxen, and the flocks of your sheep.
| مَلْعُونًا تَكُونُ فِي دُخُولِكَ، وَمَلْعُونًا تَكُونُ فِي خُرُوجِكَ. | ١٩ 19 |
Cursed shall you be entering, and cursed departing.
| يُرْسِلُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْكَ ٱللَّعْنَ وَٱلِٱضْطِرَابَ وَٱلزَّجْرَ فِي كُلِّ مَا تَمْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِ يَدُكَ لِتَعْمَلَهُ، حَتَّى تَهْلِكَ وَتَفْنَى سَرِيعًا مِنْ أَجْلِ سُوْءِ أَفْعَالِكَ إِذْ تَرَكْتَنِي. | ٢٠ 20 |
The Lord will send famine and hunger upon you, and a rebuke upon all the works that you do, until he quickly crushes and perishes you, because of your very wicked innovations, by which you have forsaken me.
| يُلْصِقُ بِكَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْوَبَأَ حَتَّى يُبِيدَكَ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا لِكَيْ تَمْتَلِكَهَا. | ٢١ 21 |
May the Lord join a pestilence to you, until he consumes you from the land, which you shall enter so as to possess.
| يَضْرِبُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِٱلسِّلِّ وَٱلْحُمَّى وَٱلْبُرَدَاءِ وَٱلِٱلْتِهَابِ وَٱلْجَفَافِ وَٱللَّفْحِ وَٱلذُّبُولِ، فَتَتَّبِعُكَ حَتَّى تُفْنِيَكَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
May the Lord strike you with destitution, with fever and cold, with burning and heat, and with polluted air and rot, and may he pursue you until you perish.
| وَتَكُونُ سَمَاؤُكَ ٱلَّتِي فَوْقَ رَأْسِكَ نُحَاسًا، وَٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي تَحْتَكَ حَدِيدًا. | ٢٣ 23 |
May the heavens which are above you be of brass, and may the ground upon which you tread be of iron.
| وَيَجْعَلُ ٱلرَّبُّ مَطَرَ أَرْضِكَ غُبَارًا، وَتُرَابًا يُنَزِّلُ عَلَيْكَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ حَتَّى تَهْلِكَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
May the Lord give you dust instead of rain upon your land, and may ashes descend from heaven over you, until you have been wiped away.
| يَجْعَلُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُنْهَزِمًا أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِكَ. فِي طَرِيقٍ وَاحِدَةٍ تَخْرُجُ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَفِي سَبْعِ طُرُقٍ تَهْرُبُ أَمَامَهُمْ، وَتَكُونُ قَلِقًا فِي جَمِيعِ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
May the Lord hand you over to fall before your enemies. May you go forth against them by one way, and flee by seven ways, and may you be scattered across all the kingdoms of the earth.
| وَتَكُونُ جُثَّتُكَ طَعَامًا لِجَمِيعِ طُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَوُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُزْعِجُهَا. | ٢٦ 26 |
And may your carcass be food for all the flying things of the air and the wild beasts of the land, and may there be no one to drive them away.
| يَضْرِبُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِقُرْحَةِ مِصْرَ وَبِالْبَوَاسِيرِ وَٱلْجَرَبِ وَٱلْحِكَّةِ حَتَّى لَا تَسْتَطِيعَ ٱلشِّفَاءَ. | ٢٧ 27 |
May the Lord strike you with the ulcer of Egypt, and may he strike the part of your body, through which the dung goes out, with disease as well as itch, so much so that you are unable to be cured.
| يَضْرِبُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِجُنُونٍ وَعَمًى وَحَيْرَةِ قَلْبٍ، | ٢٨ 28 |
May the Lord strike you with frenzy and blindness and a madness of the mind.
| فَتَتَلَمَّسُ فِي ٱلظُّهْرِ كَمَا يَتَلَمَّسُ ٱلْأَعْمَى فِي ٱلظَّلَامِ، وَلَا تَنْجَحُ فِي طُرُقِكَ بَلْ لَا تَكُونُ إِلَّا مَظْلُومًا مَغْصُوبًا كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ وَلَيْسَ مُخَلِّصٌ. | ٢٩ 29 |
And may you grope at midday, just as a blind man is accustomed to grope in darkness, and may your paths not be straight. And at all times may you suffer slander and be oppressed with violence, and may you have no one who may free you.
| تَخْطُبُ ٱمْرَأَةً وَرَجُلٌ آخَرُ يَضْطَجِعُ مَعَهَا. تَبْنِي بَيْتًا وَلَا تَسْكُنُ فِيهِ. تَغْرِسُ كَرْمًا وَلَا تَسْتَغِلُّهُ. | ٣٠ 30 |
May you take a wife, though another sleeps with her. May you build a house, but not live within it. May you plant a vineyard, and not gather its vintage.
| يُذْبَحُ ثَوْرُكَ أَمَامَ عَيْنَيْكَ وَلَا تَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ. يُغْتَصَبُ حِمَارُكَ مِنْ أَمَامِ وَجْهِكَ وَلَا يَرْجِعُ إِلَيْكَ. تُدْفَعُ غَنَمُكَ إِلَى أَعْدَائِكَ وَلَيْسَ لَكَ مُخَلِّصٌ. | ٣١ 31 |
May your ox be immolated before you, though you do not eat from it. May your donkey be seized in your sight, and not restored to you. May your sheep be given to your enemies, and may there be no one who may help you.
| يُسَلَّمُ بَنُوكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ لِشَعْبٍ آخَرَ وَعَيْنَاكَ تَنْظُرَانِ إِلَيْهِمْ طُولَ ٱلنَّهَارِ، فَتَكِلَّانِ وَلَيْسَ فِي يَدِكَ طَائِلَةٌ. | ٣٢ 32 |
May your sons and your daughters be handed over to another people, as your eyes watch and languish at the sight of them throughout the day, and may there be no strength in your hand.
| ثَمَرُ أَرْضِكَ وَكُلُّ تَعَبِكَ يَأْكُلُهُ شَعْبٌ لَا تَعْرِفُهُ، فَلَا تَكُونُ إِلَّا مَظْلُومًا وَمَسْحُوقًا كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
May a people you do not know eat the fruits of your land and of all your labors. And may you continually suffer from slander and oppression every day.
| وَتَكُونُ مَجْنُونًا مِنْ مَنْظَرِ عَيْنَيْكَ ٱلَّذِي تَنْظُرُ. | ٣٤ 34 |
And may you be stupefied at the terror of the things your eyes will see.
| يَضْرِبُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِقَرْحٍ خَبِيثٍ عَلَى ٱلرُّكْبَتَيْنِ وَعَلَى ٱلسَّاقَيْنِ، حَتَّى لَا تَسْتَطِيعَ ٱلشِّفَاءَ مِنْ أَسْفَلِ قَدَمِكَ إِلَى قِمَّةِ رَأْسِكَ. | ٣٥ 35 |
May the Lord strike you with a very grievous ulcer in the knees and in the legs, and may you be unable to attain health, from the sole of the foot to the top of the head.
| يَذْهَبُ بِكَ ٱلرَّبُّ وَبِمَلِكِكَ ٱلَّذِي تُقِيمُهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلَى أُمَّةٍ لَمْ تَعْرِفْهَا أَنْتَ وَلَا آبَاؤُكَ، وَتَعْبُدُ هُنَاكَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى مِنْ خَشَبٍ وَحَجَرٍ، | ٣٦ 36 |
May the Lord lead you and your king, whom you will have appointed over yourself, into a nation which you and your fathers have not known. And there you will serve foreign gods, of wood and of stone.
| وَتَكُونُ دَهَشًا وَمَثَلًا وَهُزْأَةً فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسُوقُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ. | ٣٧ 37 |
And you will become nothing but a proverb and a fable to all the peoples to whom the Lord will lead you.
| بِذَارًا كَثِيرًا تُخْرِجُ إِلَى ٱلْحَقْلِ، وَقَلِيلًا تَجْمَعُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْجَرَادَ يَأْكُلُهُ. | ٣٨ 38 |
You will sow much seed upon the ground, but you will harvest little. For the locusts will devour everything.
| كُرُومًا تَغْرِسُ وَتَشْتَغِلُ، وَخَمْرًا لَا تَشْرَبُ وَلَا تَجْنِي، لِأَنَّ ٱلدُّودَ يَأْكُلُهَا. | ٣٩ 39 |
You will dig and plant a vineyard, but you will not drink the wine, nor gather anything at all from it. For it will be devastated by worms.
| يَكُونُ لَكَ زَيْتُونٌ فِي جَمِيعِ تُخُومِكَ، وَبِزَيْتٍ لَا تَدَّهِنُ، لِأَنَّ زَيْتُونَكَ يَنْتَثِرُ. | ٤٠ 40 |
You will have olive trees in all your borders, but you will not be anointed with the oil. For the olives will fall off and perish.
| بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ تَلِدُ وَلَا يَكُونُونَ لَكَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ يَذْهَبُونَ. | ٤١ 41 |
You will conceive sons and daughters, and you will not enjoy them. For they will be led into captivity.
| جَمِيعُ أَشْجَارِكَ وَأَثْمَارِ أَرْضِكَ يَتَوَلَّاهُ ٱلصَّرْصَرُ. | ٤٢ 42 |
Rot will consume all the trees, as well as the fruits of your land.
| اَلْغَرِيبُ ٱلَّذِي فِي وَسَطِكَ يَسْتَعْلِي عَلَيْكَ مُتَصَاعِدًا، وَأَنْتَ تَنْحَطُّ مُتَنَازِلًا. | ٤٣ 43 |
The new arrival who lives with you in the land will ascend over you, and be higher. But you will descend, and be lower.
| هُوَ يُقْرِضُكَ وَأَنْتَ لَا تُقْرِضُهُ. هُوَ يَكُونُ رَأْسًا وَأَنْتَ تَكُونُ ذَنَبًا. | ٤٤ 44 |
He will lend to you, and you will not lend to him. He will be as the head, and you will be as the tail.
| وَتَأْتِي عَلَيْكَ جَمِيعُ هَذِهِ ٱللَّعَنَاتِ وَتَتَّبِعُكَ وَتُدْرِكُكَ حَتَّى تَهْلِكَ، لِأَنَّكَ لَمْ تَسْمَعْ لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ لِتَحْفَظَ وَصَايَاهُ وَفَرَائِضَهُ ٱلَّتِي أَوْصَاكَ بِهَا. | ٤٥ 45 |
And all these curses shall come to you, and shall pursue you, and shall take hold of you, until you pass away, because you would not listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and you would not serve his commandments and ceremonies, which he has instructed to you.
| فَتَكُونُ فِيكَ آيَةً وَأُعْجُوبَةً وَفِي نَسْلِكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ٤٦ 46 |
And there will be the signs and portents with you, and with your offspring, forever.
| مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ لَمْ تَعْبُدِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ بِفَرَحٍ وَبِطِيبَةِ قَلْبٍ لِكَثْرَةِ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ. | ٤٧ 47 |
Because you did not serve the Lord your God, with gladness and a joyful heart, over the abundance of all things.
| تُسْتَعْبَدُ لِأَعْدَائِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُرْسِلُهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْكَ فِي جُوعٍ وَعَطَشٍ وَعُرْيٍ وَعَوَزِ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ. فَيَجْعَلُ نِيرَ حَدِيدٍ عَلَى عُنُقِكَ حَتَّى يُهْلِكَكَ. | ٤٨ 48 |
You will serve your enemy, whom the Lord will send to you, in hunger and thirst and nakedness, and in destitution of all things. And he will place an iron yoke upon your neck, until he has crushed you.
| يَجْلِبُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْكَ أُمَّةً مِنْ بَعِيدٍ، مِنْ أَقْصَاءِ ٱلْأَرْضِ كَمَا يَطِيرُ ٱلنَّسْرُ، أُمَّةً لَا تَفْهَمُ لِسَانَهَا، | ٤٩ 49 |
The Lord will lead over you a nation from far away, even from the furthest parts of the earth, like an eagle flying with great force, whose language you are not able to understand:
| أُمَّةً جَافِيَةَ ٱلْوَجْهِ لَا تَهَابُ ٱلشَّيْخَ وَلَا تَحِنُّ إِلَى ٱلْوَلَدِ، | ٥٠ 50 |
a very insolent nation, which will show no deference to elders, nor take pity on little ones.
| فَتَأْكُلُ ثَمَرَةَ بَهَائِمِكَ وَثَمَرَةَ أَرْضِكَ حَتَّى تَهْلِكَ، وَلَا تُبْقِي لَكَ قَمْحًا وَلَا خَمْرًا وَلَا زَيْتًا، وَلَا نِتَاجَ بَقَرِكَ وَلَا إِنَاثَ غَنَمِكَ، حَتَّى تُفْنِيَكَ. | ٥١ 51 |
And he will devour the fruit of your cattle, and the fruits of your land, until you have passed away, without leaving behind you wheat, or wine, or oil, or herds of oxen, or flocks of sheep: until he utterly destroys you.
| وَتُحَاصِرُكَ فِي جَمِيعِ أَبْوَابِكَ حَتَّى تَهْبِطَ أَسْوَارُكَ ٱلشَّامِخَةُ ٱلْحَصِينَةُ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ تَثِقُ بِهَا فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِكَ. تُحَاصِرُكَ فِي جَمِيعِ أَبْوَابِكَ، فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِكَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. | ٥٢ 52 |
And he will crush you in all your cities. And your strong and lofty walls, in which you trusted, will be destroyed throughout all your land. You will be besieged within your gates throughout all your land, which the Lord your God will give to you.
| فَتَأْكُلُ ثَمَرَةَ بَطْنِكَ، لَحْمَ بَنِيكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَعْطَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ فِي ٱلْحِصَارِ وَٱلضِّيقَةِ ٱلَّتِي يُضَايِقُكَ بِهَا عَدُوُّكَ. | ٥٣ 53 |
And you will eat the fruit of your womb, and the flesh of your sons and of your daughters, which the Lord your God will give to you, due to the anguish and devastation with which your enemy will oppress you.
| ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْمُتَنَعِّمُ فِيكَ وَٱلْمُتَرَفِّهُ جِدًّا، تَبْخُلُ عَيْنُهُ عَلَى أَخِيهِ وَٱمْرَأَةِ حِضْنِهِ وَبَقِيَّةِ أَوْلَادِهِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُبْقِيهِمْ، | ٥٤ 54 |
The man who is pampered and very self-indulgent among you will vie with his own brother, and with the wife who lies at his bosom,
| بِأَنْ يُعْطِيَ أَحَدَهُمْ مِنْ لَحْمِ بَنِيهِ ٱلَّذِي يَأْكُلُهُ، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُبْقَ لَهُ شَيْءٌ فِي ٱلْحِصَارِ وَٱلضِّيقَةِ ٱلَّتِي يُضَايِقُكَ بِهَا عَدُوُّكَ فِي جَمِيعِ أَبْوَابِكَ. | ٥٥ 55 |
lest he give to them from the flesh of his sons, which he will eat. For he has nothing else due to the siege and the destitution, with which your enemies will devastate you within all your gates.
| وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ ٱلْمُتَنَعِّمَةُ فِيكَ وَٱلْمُتَرَفِّهَةُ ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تُجَرِّبْ أَنْ تَضَعَ أَسْفَلَ قَدَمِهَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ لِلتَّنَعُّمِ وَٱلتَّرَفُّهِ، تَبْخَلُ عَيْنُهَا عَلَى رَجُلِ حِضْنِهَا وَعَلَى ٱبْنِهَا وَبِنْتِهَا | ٥٦ 56 |
The tender and pampered woman, who would not walk upon the soil, nor step firmly with her foot due to her very great softness and tenderness, will vie with her husband, who lies at her bosom, over the flesh of son and of daughter,
| بِمَشِيمَتِهَا ٱلْخَارِجَةِ مِنْ بَيْنِ رِجْلَيْهَا وَبِأَوْلَادِهَا ٱلَّذِينَ تَلِدُهُمْ، لِأَنَّهَا تَأْكُلُهُمْ سِرًّا فِي عَوَزِ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، فِي ٱلْحِصَارِ وَٱلضِّيقَةِ ٱلَّتِي يُضَايِقُكَ بِهَا عَدُوُّكَ فِي أَبْوَابِكَ. | ٥٧ 57 |
and over the filth of the afterbirth, which goes forth from between her thighs, and over the children who are born in the same hour. For they will eat them secretly, due to the scarcity of all things during the siege and the devastation, with which your enemy will oppress you within your gates.
| إِنْ لَمْ تَحْرِصْ لِتَعْمَلَ بِجَمِيعِ كَلِمَاتِ هَذَا ٱلنَّامُوسِ ٱلْمَكْتُوبَةِ فِي هَذَا ٱلسِّفْرِ، لِتَهَابَ هَذَا ٱلِٱسْمَ ٱلْجَلِيلَ ٱلْمَرْهُوبَ، ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ، | ٥٨ 58 |
If you will not keep and do all the words of this law, which have been written in this volume, and fear his glorious and terrible name, that is, the Lord your God,
| يَجْعَلُ ٱلرَّبُّ ضَرَبَاتِكَ وَضَرَبَاتِ نَسْلِكَ عَجِيبَةً. ضَرَبَاتٍ عَظِيمَةً رَاسِخَةً، وَأَمْرَاضًا رَدِيَّةً ثَابِتَةً. | ٥٩ 59 |
then the Lord will increase your plagues, and the plagues of your offspring, plagues great and long-lasting, infirmities very grievous and continuous.
| وَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْكَ جَمِيعَ أَدْوَاءِ مِصْرَ ٱلَّتِي فَزِعْتَ مِنْهَا، فَتَلْتَصِقُ بِكَ. | ٦٠ 60 |
And he will turn back upon you all the afflictions of Egypt, which you fear, and these will cling to you.
| أَيْضًا كُلُّ مَرَضٍ وَكُلُّ ضَرْبَةٍ لَمْ تُكْتَبْ فِي سِفْرِ ٱلنَّامُوسِ هَذَا، يُسَلِّطُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْكَ حَتَّى تَهْلِكَ. | ٦١ 61 |
In addition, the Lord will lead over you all the diseases and plagues that are not written in the volume of this law, until he crushes you.
| فَتَبْقَوْنَ نَفَرًا قَلِيلًا عِوَضَ مَا كُنْتُمْ كَنُجُومِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ فِي ٱلْكَثْرَةِ، لِأَنَّكَ لَمْ تَسْمَعْ لِصَوْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. | ٦٢ 62 |
And you will remain few in number, though you were before like the stars of heaven in multitude, because you would not listen to the voice of the Lord your God.
| وَكَمَا فَرِحَ ٱلرَّبُّ لَكُمْ لِيُحْسِنَ إِلَيْكُمْ وَيُكَثِّرَكُمْ، كَذَلِكَ يَفْرَحُ ٱلرَّبُّ لَكُمْ لِيُفْنِيَكُمْ وَيُهْلِكَكُمْ، فَتُسْتَأْصَلُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ دَاخِلٌ إِلَيْهَا لِتَمْتَلِكَهَا. | ٦٣ 63 |
And just as before, when the Lord rejoiced over you, doing good for you and multiplying you, so shall he rejoice, scattering and overturning you, so as to take you away from the land, which you shall enter in order to possess.
| وَيُبَدِّدُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ مِنْ أَقْصَاءِ ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى أَقْصَائِهَا، وَتَعْبُدُ هُنَاكَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى لَمْ تَعْرِفْهَا أَنْتَ وَلَا آبَاؤُكَ، مِنْ خَشَبٍ وَحَجَرٍ. | ٦٤ 64 |
The Lord will disperse you among all the peoples, from the heights of the earth to its furthest limits. And there you will serve foreign gods of wood and of stone, which you and your fathers did not know.
| وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأُمَمِ لَا تَطْمَئِنُّ وَلَا يَكُونُ قَرَارٌ لِقَدَمِكَ، بَلْ يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ هُنَاكَ قَلْبًا مُرْتَجِفًا وَكَلَالَ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ وَذُبُولَ ٱلنَّفْسِ. | ٦٥ 65 |
Similarly, you will not have tranquility, even within those nations, nor will there be any rest for the steps of your feet. For the Lord will give to you in that place a fearful heart, and failing eyes, and a life consumed with grieving.
| وَتَكُونُ حَيَاتُكَ مُعَلَّقَةً قُدَّامَكَ، وَتَرْتَعِبُ لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا وَلَا تَأْمَنُ عَلَى حَيَاتِكَ. | ٦٦ 66 |
And your life will be as if it were hanging before you. You will be afraid night and day, and you will not have confidence in your own life.
| فِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ تَقُولُ: يَا لَيْتَهُ ٱلْمَسَاءُ، وَفِي ٱلْمَسَاءِ تَقُولُ: يَا لَيْتَهُ ٱلصَّبَاحُ، مِنِ ٱرْتِعَابِ قَلْبِكَ ٱلَّذِي تَرْتَعِبُ، وَمِنْ مَنْظَرِ عَيْنَيْكَ ٱلَّذِي تَنْظُرُ. | ٦٧ 67 |
In the morning you will say, ‘Who will grant evening to me?’ and at evening, ‘Who will grant morning to me?’ because of the dread of your heart, with which you will be terrified, and because of those things that you will see with your eyes.
| وَيَرُدُّكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَى مِصْرَ فِي سُفُنٍ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّتِي قُلْتُ لَكَ لَا تَعُدْ تَرَاهَا، فَتُبَاعُونَ هُنَاكَ لِأَعْدَائِكَ عَبِيدًا وَإِمَاءً، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَشْتَرِي». | ٦٨ 68 |
The Lord will lead you back into Egypt with a fleet of ships, along the way, about which he said to you that you would not see it again. In that place, you will be put up for sale as men and women servants to your enemies, but there will be no one willing to buy you.”
