< اَلتَّثْنِيَة 32 >

«اِنْصِتِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ فَأَتَكَلَّمَ، وَلْتَسْمَعِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَقْوَالَ فَمِي. ١ 1
Attend, O heaven, and I will speak; and let the earth hear the words out of my mouth.
يَهْطِلُ كَٱلْمَطَرِ تَعْلِيمِي، وَيَقْطُرُ كَٱلنَّدَى كَلَامِي. كَٱلطَّلِّ عَلَى ٱلْكَلاءِ، وَكَالْوَابِلِ عَلَى ٱلْعُشْبِ. ٢ 2
Let my speech be looked for as the rain, and my words come down as dew, as the shower upon the herbage, and as snow upon the grass.
إِنِّي بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ أُنَادِي. أَعْطُوا عَظَمَةً لِإِلَهِنَا. ٣ 3
For I have called on the name of the Lord: assign ye greatness to our God.
هُوَ ٱلصَّخْرُ ٱلْكَامِلُ صَنِيعُهُ. إِنَّ جَمِيعَ سُبُلِهِ عَدْلٌ. إِلَهُ أَمَانَةٍ لَا جَوْرَ فِيهِ. صِدِّيقٌ وَعَادِلٌ هُوَ. ٤ 4
[As for God], his works [are] true, and all his ways [are] judgment: God [is] faithful, and there is no unrighteousness [in him]; just and holy [is] the Lord.
«أَفْسَدَ لَهُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَيْسُوا أَوْلَادَهُ عَيْبُهُمْ، جِيلٌ أَعْوَجُ مُلْتوٍ. ٥ 5
They have sinned, not [pleasing] him; spotted children, a froward and perverse generation.
أَلرَّبَّ تُكَافِئُونَ بِهَذَا يَا شَعْبًا غَبِيًّا غَيْرَ حَكِيمٍ؟ أَلَيْسَ هُوَ أَبَاكَ وَمُقْتَنِيَكَ، هُوَ عَمِلَكَ وَأَنْشَأَكَ؟ ٦ 6
Do ye thus recompense the Lord? [is the] people thus foolish and unwise? did not he himself thy father purchase thee, and make thee, and form thee?
اُذْكُرْ أَيَّامَ ٱلْقِدَمِ، وَتَأَمَّلُوا سِنِي دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ. اِسْأَلْ أَبَاكَ فَيُخْبِرَكَ، وَشُيُوخَكَ فَيَقُولُوا لَكَ. ٧ 7
Remember the days of old, consider the years for past ages: ask thy father, and he shall relate to thee, thine elders, and they shall tell thee.
«حِينَ قَسَمَ ٱلْعَلِيُّ لِلْأُمَمِ، حِينَ فَرَّقَ بَنِي آدَمَ، نَصَبَ تُخُومًا لِشُعُوبٍ حَسَبَ عَدَدِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٨ 8
When the Most High divided the nations, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of God.
إِنَّ قِسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ هُوَ شَعْبُهُ. يَعْقُوبُ حَبْلُ نَصِيبِهِ. ٩ 9
And his people Jacob became the portion of the Lord, Israel was the line of his inheritance.
وَجَدَهُ فِي أَرْضِ قَفْرٍ، وَفِي خَلَاءٍ مُسْتَوْحِشٍ خَرِبٍ. أَحَاطَ بِهِ وَلَاحَظَهُ وَصَانَهُ كَحَدَقَةِ عَيْنِهِ. ١٠ 10
He maintained him in the wilderness, in burning thirst and a dry land: he led him about and instructed him, and kept him as the apple of an eye.
كَمَا يُحَرِّكُ ٱلنَّسْرُ عُشَّهُ وَعَلَى فِرَاخِهِ يَرِفُّ، وَيَبْسُطُ جَنَاحَيْهِ وَيَأْخُذُهَا وَيَحْمِلُهَا عَلَى مَنَاكِبِهِ، ١١ 11
As an eagle would watch over his brood, and yearns over his young, receives them having spread his wings, and takes them up on his back:
هَكَذَا ٱلرَّبُّ وَحْدَهُ ٱقْتَادَهُ وَلَيْسَ مَعَهُ إِلَهٌ أَجْنَبِيٌّ. ١٢ 12
the Lord alone led them, there was no strange god with them.
أَرْكَبَهُ عَلَى مُرْتَفَعَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ فَأَكَلَ ثِمَارَ ٱلصَّحْرَاءِ، وَأَرْضَعَهُ عَسَلًا مِنْ حَجَرٍ، وَزَيْتًا مِنْ صَوَّانِ ٱلصَّخْرِ، ١٣ 13
He brought them up on the strength of the land; he fed them with the fruits of the fields; they sucked honey out of the rock, and oil out of the solid rock.
وَزُبْدَةَ بَقَرٍ وَلَبَنَ غَنَمٍ، مَعَ شَحْمِ خِرَافٍ وَكِبَاشٍ أَوْلَادِ بَاشَانَ، وَتُيُوسٍ مَعَ دَسَمِ لُبِّ ٱلْحِنْطَةِ، وَدَمَ ٱلْعِنَبِ شَرِبْتَهُ خَمْرًا. ١٤ 14
Butter of cows, and milk of sheep, with the fat of lambs and rams, of calves and kids, with fat of kidneys of wheat; and he drank wine, the blood of the grape.
«فَسَمِنَ يَشُورُونَ وَرَفَسَ. سَمِنْتَ وَغَلُظْتَ وَٱكْتَسَيْتَ شَحْمًا! فَرَفَضَ ٱلْإِلَهَ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَهُ، وَغَبِيَ عَنْ صَخْرَةِ خَلَاصِهِ. ١٥ 15
So Jacob ate and was filled, and the beloved one kicked; he grew fat, he became thick and broad: then he forsook the God that made him, and departed from God his Saviour.
أَغَارُوهُ بِٱلْأَجَانِبِ، وَأَغَاظُوهُ بِٱلْأَرْجَاسِ. ١٦ 16
They provoked me to anger with strange gods; with their abominations they bitterly angered me.
ذَبَحُوا لِأَوْثَانٍ لَيْسَتِ ٱللهَ. لِآلِهَةٍ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهَا، أَحْدَاثٍ قَدْ جَاءَتْ مِنْ قَرِيبٍ لَمْ يَرْهَبْهَا آبَاؤُكُمْ. ١٧ 17
They sacrificed to devils, and not to God; to gods whom they knew not: new and fresh [gods] came in, whom their fathers knew not.
ٱلصَّخْرُ ٱلَّذِي وَلَدَكَ تَرَكْتَهُ، وَنَسِيتَ ٱللهَ ٱلَّذِي أَبْدَأَكَ. ١٨ 18
Thou hast forsaken God that begot thee, and forgotten God who feeds thee.
«فَرَأَى ٱلرَّبُّ وَرَذَلَ مِنَ ٱلْغَيْظِ بَنِيهِ وَبَنَاتِهِ. ١٩ 19
And the Lord saw, and was jealous; and was provoked by the anger of his sons and daughters,
وَقَالَ: أَحْجُبُ وَجْهِي عَنْهُمْ، وَأَنْظُرُ مَاذَا تَكُونُ آخِرَتُهُمْ. إِنَّهُمْ جِيلٌ مُتَقَلِّبٌ، أَوْلَادٌ لَا أَمَانَةَ فِيهِمْ. ٢٠ 20
and said, I will turn away my face from them, and will show what shall happen to them in the last days; for it is a perverse generation, sons in whom is no faith.
هُمْ أَغَارُونِي بِمَا لَيْسَ إِلَهًا، أَغَاظُونِي بِأَبَاطِيلِهِمْ. فَأَنَا أُغِيرُهُمْ بِمَا لَيْسَ شَعْبًا، بِأُمَّةٍ غَبِيَّةٍ أُغِيظُهُمْ. ٢١ 21
They have provoked me to jealousy with [that which is] not God, they have exasperated me with their idols; and I will provoke them to jealousy with them that are no nation, I will anger them with a nation void of understanding.
إِنَّهُ قَدِ ٱشْتَعَلَتْ نَارٌ بِغَضَبِي فَتَتَّقِدُ إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ ٱلسُّفْلَى، وَتَأْكُلُ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَغَلَّتَهَا، وَتُحْرِقُ أُسُسَ ٱلْجِبَالِ. (Sheol h7585) ٢٢ 22
For a fire has been kindled out of my wrath, it shall burn to hell below; it shall devour the land, and the fruits of it; it shall set on fire the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)
أَجْمَعُ عَلَيْهِمْ شُرُورًا، وَأُنْفِذُ سِهَامِي فِيهِمْ، ٢٣ 23
I will gather evils upon them, and will fight with my weapons against them.
إِذْ هُمْ خَاوُونَ مِنْ جُوعٍ، وَمَنْهُوكُونَ مِنْ حُمَّى وَدَاءٍ سَامٍّ، أُرْسِلُ فِيهِمْ أَنْيَابَ ٱلْوُحُوشِ مَعَ حُمَةِ زَوَاحِفِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٢٤ 24
[They shall be] consumed with hunger and the devouring of birds, and there shall be irremediable destruction: I will send forth against them the teeth of wild beasts, with the rage of [serpents] creeping on the ground.
مِنْ خَارِجٍ ٱلسَّيْفُ يُثْكِلُ، وَمِنْ دَاخِلِ ٱلْخُدُورِ ٱلرُّعْبَةُ. ٱلْفَتَى مَعَ ٱلْفَتَاةِ وَٱلرَّضِيعُ مَعَ ٱلْأَشْيَبِ. ٢٥ 25
Without, the sword shall bereave them of children, and terror [shall issue] out of the secret chambers; the young man shall perish with the virgin, the suckling with him who has grown old.
قُلْتُ: أُبَدِّدُهُمْ إِلَى ٱلزَّوَايَا، وَأُبَطِّلُ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ ذِكْرَهُمْ. ٢٦ 26
I said, I will scatter them, and I will cause their memorial to cease from among men.
لَوْ لَمْ أَخَفْ مِنْ إِغَاظَةِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ، مِنْ أَنْ يُنْكِرَ أَضْدَادُهُمْ، مِنْ أَنْ يَقُولُوا: يَدُنَا ٱرْتَفَعَتْ وَلَيْسَ ٱلرَّبُّ فَعَلَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ. ٢٧ 27
Were it not for the wrath of the enemy, lest they should live long, lest their enemies should combine against them; lest they should say, Our own high arm, and not the Lord, has done all these things.
«إِنَّهُمْ أُمَّةٌ عَدِيمَةُ ٱلرَّأْيِ وَلَا بَصِيرَةَ فِيهِمْ. ٢٨ 28
It is a nation that has lost counsel, neither is there understanding in them.
لَوْ عَقَلُوا لَفَطِنُوا بِهَذِهِ وَتَأَمَّلُوا آخِرَتَهُمْ. ٢٩ 29
They had not sense to understand: let them reserve these things against the time to come.
كَيْفَ يَطْرُدُ وَاحِدٌ أَلْفًا، وَيَهْزِمُ ٱثْنَانِ رَبْوَةً، لَوْلَا أَنَّ صَخْرَهُمْ بَاعَهُمْ وَٱلرَّبَّ سَلَّمَهُمْ؟ ٣٠ 30
How should one pursue a thousand, and two rout tens of thousands, if God had not sold them, and the Lord delivered them up?
لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ كَصَخْرِنَا صَخْرُهُمْ، وَلَوْ كَانَ أَعْدَاؤُنَا ٱلْقُضَاةَ. ٣١ 31
For their gods are not as our God, but our enemies [are] void of understanding.
لِأَنَّ مِنْ جَفْنَةِ سَدُومَ جَفْنَتَهُمْ، وَمِنْ كُرُومِ عَمُورَةَ. عِنَبُهُمْ عِنَبُ سَمٍّ، وَلَهُمْ عَنَاقِيدُ مَرَارَةٍ. ٣٢ 32
For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom, and their vine-branch of Gomorrha: their grape [is] a grape of gall, their cluster [is] one of bitterness.
خَمْرُهُمْ حُمَةُ ٱلثَّعَابِينِ وَسَمُّ ٱلْأَصْلَالِ ٱلْقَاتِلُ. ٣٣ 33
Their wine [is] the rage of serpents, and the incurable rage of asps.
«أَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ مَكْنُوزًا عِنْدِي، مَخْتُومًا عَلَيْهِ فِي خَزَائِنِي؟ ٣٤ 34
Lo! are not these things stored up by me, and sealed among my treasures?
لِيَ ٱلنَّقْمَةُ وَٱلْجَزَاءُ. فِي وَقْتٍ تَزِلُّ أَقْدَامُهُمْ. إِنَّ يَوْمَ هَلَاكِهِمْ قَرِيبٌ وَٱلْمُهَيَّآتُ لَهُمْ مُسْرِعَةٌ. ٣٥ 35
In the day of vengeance I will recompense, whensoever their foot shall be tripped up; for the day of their destruction [is] near to them, and the judgments at hand are close upon you.
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَدِينُ شَعْبَهُ، وَعَلَى عَبِيدِهِ يُشْفِقُ. حِينَ يَرَى أَنَّ ٱلْيَدَ قَدْ مَضَتْ، وَلَمْ يَبْقَ مَحْجُوزٌ وَلَا مُطْلَقٌ، ٣٦ 36
For the Lord shall judge his people, and shall be comforted over his servants; for he saw that they were utterly weakened, and failed in the hostile invasion, and were become feeble:
يَقُولُ: أَيْنَ آلِهَتُهُمُ، ٱلصَّخْرَةُ ٱلَّتِي ٱلْتَجَأُوا إِلَيْهَا، ٣٧ 37
and the Lord said, Where are their gods on whom they trusted?
ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ تَأْكُلُ شَحْمَ ذَبَائِحِهِمْ وَتَشْرَبُ خَمْرَ سَكَائِبِهِمْ؟ لِتَقُمْ وَتُسَاعِدْكُمْ وَتَكُنْ عَلَيْكُمْ حِمَايَةً! ٣٨ 38
the fat of whose sacrifices ye ate, and ye drank the wine of their drink-offerings? let them arise and help you, and be your protectors.
اُنْظُرُوا ٱلْآنَ! أَنَا أَنَا هُوَ وَلَيْسَ إِلَهٌ مَعِي. أَنَا أُمِيتُ وَأُحْيِي. سَحَقْتُ، وَإِنِّي أَشْفِي، وَلَيْسَ مِنْ يَدِي مُخَلِّصٌ. ٣٩ 39
Behold, behold that I am [he], and there is no god beside me: I kill, and I will make to live: I will smite, and I will heal; and there is none who shall deliver out of my hands.
إِنِّي أَرْفَعُ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ يَدِي وَأَقُولُ: حَيٌّ أَنَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. ٤٠ 40
For I will lift up my hand to heaven, and swear by my right hand, and I will say, I live for ever.
إِذَا سَنَنْتُ سَيْفِي ٱلْبَارِقَ، وَأَمْسَكَتْ بِٱلْقَضَاءِ يَدِي، أَرُدُّ نَقْمَةً عَلَى أَضْدَادِي، وَأُجَازِي مُبْغِضِيَّ. ٤١ 41
For I will sharpen my sword like lightning, and my hand shall take hold of judgment; and I will render judgment to my enemies, and will recompense them that hate me.
أُسْكِرُ سِهَامِي بِدَمٍ، وَيَأْكُلُ سَيْفِي لَحْمًا. بِدَمِ ٱلْقَتْلَى وَٱلسَّبَايَا، وَمِنْ رُؤُوسِ قُوَّادِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ. ٤٢ 42
I will make my weapons drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, [it shall glut itself] with the blood of the wounded, and from the captivity of the heads of [their] enemies that rule over them.
«تَهَلَّلُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْأُمَمُ، شَعْبُهُ، لِأَنَّهُ يَنْتَقِمُ بِدَمِ عَبِيدِهِ، وَيَرُدُّ نَقْمَةً عَلَى أَضْدَادِهِ، وَيَصْفَحُ عَنْ أَرْضِهِ عَنْ شَعْبِهِ». ٤٣ 43
Rejoice, ye heavens, with him, and let all the angels of God worship him; rejoice ye Gentiles, with his people, and let all the sons of God strengthen themselves in him; for he will avenge the blood of his sons, and he will render vengeance, and recompense justice to his enemies, and will reward them that hate him; and the Lord shall purge the land of his people.
فَأَتَى مُوسَى وَنَطَقَ بِجَمِيعِ كَلِمَاتِ هَذَا ٱلنَّشِيدِ فِي مَسَامِعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، هُوَ وَيَشُوعُ بْنُ نُونَ. ٤٤ 44
And Moses wrote this song in that day, and taught it to the children of Israel; and Moses went in and spoke all the words of this law in the ears of the people, he and Joshua the [son] of Naue.
وَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مُوسَى مِنْ مُخَاطَبَةِ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِكُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَاتِ، ٤٥ 45
And Moses finished speaking to all Israel.
قَالَ لَهُمْ: «وَجِّهُوا قُلُوبَكُمْ إِلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْكَلِمَاتِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أَشْهَدُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، لِكَيْ تُوصُوا بِهَا أَوْلَادَكُمْ، لِيَحْرِصُوا أَنْ يَعْمَلُوا بِجَمِيعِ كَلِمَاتِ هَذِهِ ٱلتَّوْرَاةِ. ٤٦ 46
And he said to them, Take heed with your heart to all these words, which I testify to you this day, which ye shall command your sons, to observe and do all the words of this law.
لِأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ أَمْرًا بَاطِلًا عَلَيْكُمْ، بَلْ هِيَ حَيَاتُكُمْ. وَبِهَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ تُطِيلُونَ ٱلْأَيَّامَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتُمْ عَابِرُونَ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ إِلَيْهَا لِتَمْتَلِكُوهَا». ٤٧ 47
For this [is] no vain word to you; for it [is] your life, and because of this word ye shall live long upon the land, into which ye go over Jordan to inherit it.
وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي نَفْسِ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَائِلًا: ٤٨ 48
And the Lord spoke to Moses in this day, saying,
«اِصْعَدْ إِلَى جَبَلِ عَبَارِيمَ هَذَا، جَبَلِ نَبُو ٱلَّذِي فِي أَرْضِ مُوآبَ ٱلَّذِي قُبَالَةَ أَرِيحَا، وَٱنْظُرْ أَرْضَ كَنْعَانَ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُعْطِيهَا لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مُلْكًا، ٤٩ 49
Go up to the mount Abarim, this mountain Nabau which is in the land of Moab over against Jericho, and behold the land of Chanaan, which I give to the sons of Israel:
وَمُتْ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلَّذِي تَصْعَدُ إِلَيْهِ، وَٱنْضَمَّ إِلَى قَوْمِكَ، كَمَا مَاتَ هَارُونُ أَخُوكَ فِي جَبَلِ هُورٍ وَضُمَّ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ. ٥٠ 50
and die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be added to thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Or, and was added to his people.
لِأَنَّكُمَا خُنْتُمَانِي فِي وَسَطِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عِنْدَ مَاءِ مَرِيبَةِ قَادَشَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ صِينٍ، إِذْ لَمْ تُقَدِّسَانِي فِي وَسَطِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٥١ 51
Because ye disobeyed my word among the children of Israel, at the waters of strife of Cades in the wilderness of Sin; because ye sanctified me not among the sons of Israel.
فَإِنَّكَ تَنْظُرُ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِنْ قُبَالَتِهَا، وَلَكِنَّكَ لَا تَدْخُلُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُعْطِيهَا لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ». ٥٢ 52
Thou shalt see the land before [thee], but thou shalt not enter into it.
