< اَلتَّثْنِيَة 29 >

هَذِهِ هِيَ كَلِمَاتُ ٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلَّذِي أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى أَنْ يَقْطَعَهُ مَعَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي أَرْضِ مُوآبَ، فَضْلًا عَنِ ٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعَهُ مَعَهُمْ فِي حُورِيبَ. ١ 1
These [are] the words of the covenant, which the Lord commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which he made with them in Choreb.
وَدَعَا مُوسَى جَمِيعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَنْتُمْ شَاهَدْتُمْ مَا فَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِكُمْ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ بِفِرْعَوْنَ وَبِجَمِيعِ عَبِيدِهِ وَبِكُلِّ أَرْضِهِ، ٢ 2
And Moses called all the sons of Israel and said to them, You have seen all things that the Lord did in the land of Egypt before you to Pharao and his servants, and all his land;
ٱلتَّجَارِبُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ ٱلَّتِي أَبْصَرَتْهَا عَيْنَاكَ، وَتِلْكَ ٱلْآيَاتِ وَٱلْعَجَائِبَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ. ٣ 3
the great temptations which your eyes have seen, the signs, and those great wonders.
وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يُعْطِكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ قَلْبًا لِتَفْهَمُوا، وَأَعْيُنًا لِتُبْصِرُوا، وَآذَانًا لِتَسْمَعُوا إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ٤ 4
Yet the Lord God has not given you a heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, until this day.
فَقَدْ سِرْتُ بِكُمْ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، لَمْ تَبْلَ ثِيَابُكُمْ عَلَيْكُمْ، وَنَعْلُكَ لَمْ تَبْلَ عَلَى رِجْلِكَ. ٥ 5
And he led you forty years in the wilderness; your garments did not grow old, and your sandals were not worn away off your feet.
لَمْ تَأْكُلُوا خُبْزًا وَلَمْ تَشْرَبُوا خَمْرًا وَلَا مُسْكِرًا لِكَيْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. ٦ 6
You did not eat bread, you did not drink wine or strong drink, that you might know that I [am] the Lord your God.
وَلَمَّا جِئْتُمْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانِ خَرَجَ سِيحُونُ مَلِكُ حَشْبُونَ وَعُوجُ مَلِكُ بَاشَانَ لِلِقَائِنَا لِلْحَرْبِ فَكَسَّرْنَاهُمَا، ٧ 7
And you came as far as this place; and there came forth Seon king of Esebon, and Og king of Basan, to meet us in war.
وَأَخَذْنَا أَرْضَهُمَا وَأَعْطَيْنَاهَا نَصِيبًا لِرَأُوبَيْنَ وَجَادَ وَنِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى. ٨ 8
And we struck them and took their land, and I gave it for an inheritance to Ruben and Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasse.
فَٱحْفَظُوا كَلِمَاتِ هَذَا ٱلْعَهْدِ وَٱعْمَلُوا بِهَا لِكَيْ تَفْلَحُوا فِي كُلِّ مَا تَفْعَلُونَ. ٩ 9
And you shall take heed to do all the words of this covenant, that you may understand all things that you shall do.
«أَنْتُمْ وَاقِفُونَ ٱلْيَوْمَ جَمِيعُكُمْ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ: رُؤَسَاؤُكُمْ، أَسْبَاطُكُمْ، شُيُوخُكُمْ وَعُرَفَاؤُكُمْ وَكُلُّ رِجَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ١٠ 10
You all stand today before the Lord your God, the heads of your tribes, and your elders, and your judges, and your officers, every man of Israel,
وَأَطْفَالُكُمْ وَنِسَاؤُكُمْ، وَغَرِيبُكُمُ ٱلَّذِي فِي وَسَطِ مَحَلَّتِكُمْ مِمَّنْ يَحْتَطِبُ حَطَبَكُمْ إِلَى مَنْ يَسْتَقِي مَاءَكُمْ، ١١ 11
your wives, and your children, and the stranger who is in the midst of your camp, from your hewer of wood even to your drawer of water,
لِكَيْ تَدْخُلَ فِي عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ وَقَسَمِهِ ٱلَّذِي يَقْطَعُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مَعَكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ، ١٢ 12
that you should enter into the covenant of the Lord your God and into his oaths, as many as the Lord your God appoints you this day;
لِكَيْ يُقِيمَكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ لِنَفْسِهِ شَعْبًا، وَهُوَ يَكُونُ لَكَ إِلَهًا كَمَا قَالَ لَكَ، وَكَمَا حَلَفَ لِآبَائِكَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ. ١٣ 13
that he may appoint you to himself for a people, and he shall be your God, as he said to you, and as he sware to your fathers, Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob.
وَلَيْسَ مَعَكُمْ وَحْدَكُمْ أَقْطَعُ أَنَا هَذَا ٱلْعَهْدَ وَهَذَا ٱلْقَسَمَ، ١٤ 14
And I do not appoint to you alone this covenant and this oath;
بَلْ مَعَ ٱلَّذِي هُوَ هُنَا مَعَنَا وَاقِفًا ٱلْيَوْمَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا، وَمَعَ ٱلَّذِي لَيْسَ هُنَا مَعَنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ. ١٥ 15
but to those also who are here with you today before the Lord your God, and to those who are not here with you today.
لِأَنَّكُمْ قَدْ عَرَفْتُمْ كَيْفَ أَقَمْنَا فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَكَيْفَ ٱجْتَزْنَا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَرَرْتُمْ بِهِمْ، ١٦ 16
For you know how we lived in the land of Egypt, how we came through the midst of the nations through whom you came.
وَرَأَيْتُمْ أَرْجَاسَهُمْ وَأَصْنَامَهُمُ ٱلَّتِي عِنْدَهُمْ مِنْ خَشَبٍ وَحَجَرٍ وَفِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ، ١٧ 17
And you saw their abominations, and their idols, wood and stone, silver and gold, which are among them.
لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ فِيكُمْ رَجُلٌ أَوِ ٱمْرَأَةٌ أَوْ عَشِيرَةٌ أَوْ سِبْطٌ قَلْبُهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ مُنْصَرِفٌ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا لِكَيْ يَذْهَبَ لِيَعْبُدَ آلِهَةَ تِلْكَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ فِيكُمْ أَصْلٌ يُثْمِرُ عَلْقَمًا وَأَفْسَنْتِينًا. ١٨ 18
Lest there be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart has turned aside from the Lord your God, having gone to serve the gods of these nations; lest there be in you a root springing up with gall and bitterness.
فَيَكُونُ مَتَى سَمِعَ كَلَامَ هَذِهِ ٱللَّعْنَةِ، يَتَبَرَّكُ فِي قَلْبِهِ قَائِلًا: يَكُونُ لِي سَلَامٌ، إِنِّي بِإِصْرَارِ قَلْبِي أَسْلُكُ لِإِفْنَاءِ ٱلرَّيَّانِ مَعَ ٱلْعَطْشَانِ. ١٩ 19
And it shall be if one shall hear the words of this curse, and shall flatter himself in his heart, saying, Let good happen to me, for I will walk in the error of my heart, lest the sinner destroy the guiltless with [him]:
لَا يَشَاءُ ٱلرَّبُّ أَنْ يَرْفُقَ بِهِ، بَلْ يُدَخِّنُ حِينَئِذٍ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَغَيْرَتُهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ٱلرَّجُلِ، فَتَحِلُّ عَلَيْهِ كُلُّ ٱللَّعَنَاتِ ٱلْمَكْتُوبَةِ فِي هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ، وَيَمْحُو ٱلرَّبُّ ٱسْمَهُ مِنْ تَحْتِ ٱلسَمَاءِ. ٢٠ 20
God shall by no means be willing to pardon him, but then the wrath of the Lord and his jealousy shall flame out against that man; and all the curses of this covenant shall attach themselves to him, which are written in this book, and the Lord shall blot out his name from under heaven.
وَيُفْرِزُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلشَّرِّ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ جَمِيعِ لَعَنَاتِ ٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلْمَكْتُوبَةِ فِي كِتَابِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ هَذَا. ٢١ 21
And the Lord shall separate that man for evil of all the children of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that are written in the book of this law.
فَيَقُولُ ٱلْجِيلُ ٱلْأَخِيرُ، بَنُوكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَقُومُونَ بَعْدَكُمْ، وَٱلْأَجْنَبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي يَأْتِي مِنْ أَرْضٍ بَعِيدَةٍ، حِينَ يَرَوْنَ ضَرَبَاتِ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَأَمْرَاضَهَا ٱلَّتِي يُمْرِضُهَا بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٢ 22
And another generation shall say—even your sons who shall rise up after you, and the stranger who shall come from a land afar off, and shall see the plagues of that land and their diseases, which the Lord has sent upon it,
كِبْرِيتٌ وَمِلْحٌ، كُلُّ أَرْضِهَا حَرِيقٌ، لَا تُزْرَعُ وَلَا تُنْبِتُ وَلَا يَطْلُعُ فِيهَا عُشْبٌ مَّا، كَٱنْقِلَابِ سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ وَأَدْمَةَ وَصَبُويِيمَ، ٱلَّتِي قَلَبَهَا ٱلرَّبُّ بِغَضَبِهِ وَسَخَطِهِ. ٢٣ 23
brimstone and burning salt, (the whole land shall not be sown, neither shall any green thing spring, nor rise upon it, as Sodom and Gomorrha were overthrown, Adama and Seboim, which the Lord overthrew in his wrath and anger: )—
وَيَقُولُ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأُمَمِ: لِمَاذَا فَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ هَكَذَا بِهَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ؟ لِمَاذَا حُمُوُّ هَذَا ٱلْغَضَبِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ؟ ٢٤ 24
and all the nations shall say, Why has the Lord done thus to this land? what [is] this great fierceness of anger?
فَيَقُولُونَ: لِأَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوا عَهْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ آبَائِهِمِ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعَهُ مَعَهُمْ حِينَ أَخْرَجَهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، ٢٥ 25
And [men] shall say, Because they forsook the covenant of the Lord God of their fathers, the things which he appointed to their fathers, when he brought them out of the land of Egypt:
وَذَهَبُوا وَعَبَدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى وَسَجَدُوا لَهَا. آلِهَةً لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهَا وَلَا قُسِمَتْ لَهُمْ. ٢٦ 26
and they went and served other gods, which they knew not, neither did he assign [them] to them.
فَٱشْتَعَلَ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضِ حَتَّى جَلَبَ عَلَيْهَا كُلَّ ٱللَّعَنَاتِ ٱلْمَكْتُوبَةِ فِي هَذَا ٱلسِّفْرِ. ٢٧ 27
And the Lord was exceedingly angry with that land to bring upon it according to all the curses which are written in the book of this law.
وَٱسْتَأْصَلَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمْ بِغَضَبٍ وَسَخَطٍ وَغَيْظٍ عَظِيمٍ، وَأَلْقَاهُمْ إِلَى أَرْضٍ أُخْرَى كَمَا فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ٢٨ 28
And the Lord removed them from their land in anger, and wrath, and very great indignation, and cast them out into another land as at present.
ٱلسَّرَائِرُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا، وَٱلْمُعْلَنَاتُ لَنَا وَلِبَنِينَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، لِنَعْمَلَ بِجَمِيعِ كَلِمَاتِ هَذِهِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ. ٢٩ 29
The secret things [belong] to the Lord our God, but the things that are revealed [belong] to us and to our children for ever, to do all the words of this law.
