< اَلتَّثْنِيَة 1 >

هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَ بِهِ مُوسَى جَمِيعَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي ٱلْعَرَبَةِ، قُبَالَةَ سُوفَ، بَيْنَ فَارَانَ وَتُوفَلَ وَلَابَانَ وَحَضَيْرُوتَ وَذِي ذَهَبٍ. ١ 1
These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel on this side the Jordan, in the wilderness, in the plain, opposite to Suph, between Paran and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab.
أَحَدَ عَشَرَ يَوْمًا مِنْ حُورِيبَ عَلَى طَرِيقِ جَبَلِ سِعِيرَ إِلَى قَادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ. ٢ 2
There are eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of mount Seir to Kadesh-barnea.
فَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْأَرْبَعِينَ، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْحَادِي عَشَرَ فِي ٱلْأَوَّلِ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ، كَلَّمَ مُوسَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَوْصَاهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ. ٣ 3
And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first of the month, that Moses spoke to the children of Israel, according to all that Jehovah had given him in command to them;
بَعْدَ مَا ضَرَبَ سِيحُونَ مَلِكَ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنَ فِي حَشْبُونَ، وَعُوجَ مَلِكَ بَاشَانَ ٱلسَّاكِنَ فِي عَشْتَارُوثَ فِي إِذْرَعِي. ٤ 4
after he had smitten Sihon the king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who dwelt at Ashtaroth [and] at Edrei.
فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، فِي أَرْضِ مُوآبَ، ٱبْتَدَأَ مُوسَى يَشْرَحُ هَذِهِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةَ قَائِلًا: ٥ 5
On this side the Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to unfold this law, saying,
«اَلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا كَلَّمَنَا فِي حُورِيبَ قَائِلًا: كَفَاكُمْ قُعُودٌ فِي هَذَا ٱلْجَبَلِ، ٦ 6
Jehovah our God spoke unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have stayed long enough in this mountain.
تَحَوَّلُوا وَٱرْتَحِلُوا وَٱدْخُلُوا جَبَلَ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ وَكُلَّ مَا يَلِيهِ مِنَ ٱلْعَرَبَةِ وَٱلْجَبَلِ وَٱلسَّهْلِ وَٱلْجَنُوبِ وَسَاحِلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ، أَرْضَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّ وَلُبْنَانَ إِلَى ٱلنَّهْرِ ٱلْكَبِيرِ، نَهْرِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ. ٧ 7
Turn and take your journey, and go to the hill-country of the Amorites, and unto all the neighbouring places in the plain, in the mountain, and in the lowland, and in the south, and by the seaside, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.
اُنْظُرْ. قَدْ جَعَلْتُ أَمَامَكُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ. ٱدْخُلُوا وَتَمَلَّكُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِآبَائِكُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهَا لَهُمْ وَلِنَسْلِهِمْ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ. ٨ 8
Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which Jehovah swore unto your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.
«وَكَلَّمْتُكُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ قَائِلًا: لَا أَقْدِرُ وَحْدِي أَنْ أَحْمِلَكُمْ. ٩ 9
And I spoke unto you at that time, saying, I am not able to bear you myself alone.
اَلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ قَدْ كَثَّرَكُمْ. وَهُوَذَا أَنْتُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ كَنُجُومِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ فِي ٱلْكَثْرَةِ. ١٠ 10
Jehovah your God hath multiplied you, and behold, ye are this day as the stars of heaven for multitude.
ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ آبَائِكُمْ يَزِيدُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِثْلَكُمْ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ، وَيُبَارِكُكُمْ كَمَا كَلَّمَكُمْ. ١١ 11
Jehovah, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times so many more as ye are, and bless you as he hath said unto you!
كَيْفَ أَحْمِلُ وَحْدِي ثِقْلَكُمْ وَحِمْلَكُمْ وَخُصُومَتَكُمْ؟ ١٢ 12
How can I myself alone sustain your wear, and your burden, and your strife?
هَاتُوا مِنْ أَسْبَاطِكُمْ رِجَالًا حُكَمَاءَ وَعُقَلَاءَ وَمَعْرُوفِينَ، فَأَجْعَلُهُمْ رُؤُوسَكُمْ. ١٣ 13
Provide you wise and understanding and known men, according to your tribes, that I may make them your chiefs.
فَأَجَبْتُمُونِي وَقُلْتُمْ: حَسَنٌ ٱلْأَمْرُ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمْتَ بِهِ أَنْ يُعْمَلَ. ١٤ 14
And ye answered me, and said, The thing that thou hast spoken is good [for us] to do.
فَأَخَذْتُ رُؤُوسَ أَسْبَاطِكُمْ رِجَالًا حُكَمَاءَ وَمَعْرُوفِينَ، وَجَعَلْتُهُمْ رُؤُوسًا عَلَيْكُمْ، رُؤَسَاءَ أُلُوفٍ، وَرُؤَسَاءَ مِئَاتٍ، وَرُؤَسَاءَ خَمَاسِينَ، وَرُؤَسَاءَ عَشَرَاتٍ، وَعُرَفَاءَ لِأَسْبَاطِكُمْ. ١٥ 15
So I took the chiefs of your tribes, wise men and known, and made them chiefs over you, captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, and captains of fifties, and captains of tens, and officers for your tribes.
وَأَمَرْتُ قُضَاتَكُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ قَائِلًا: ٱسْمَعُوا بَيْنَ إِخْوَتِكُمْ وَٱقْضُوا بِٱلْحَقِّ بَيْنَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ وَأَخِيهِ وَنَزِيلِهِ. ١٦ 16
And I commanded your judges at that time, saying, Hear [the causes] between your brethren, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and him also that sojourneth with him.
لَا تَنْظُرُوا إِلَى ٱلْوُجُوهِ فِي ٱلْقَضَاءِ. لِلصَّغِيرِ كَٱلْكَبِيرِ تَسْمَعُونَ. لَا تَهَابُوا وَجْهَ إِنْسَانٍ لِأَنَّ ٱلْقَضَاءَ لِلهِ. وَٱلْأَمْرُ ٱلَّذِي يَعْسُرُ عَلَيْكُمْ تُقَدِّمُونَهُ إِلَيَّ لِأَسْمَعَهُ. ١٧ 17
Ye shall not respect persons in judgment: ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man, for the judgment is God's; and the matter that is too hard for you shall ye bring to me, that I may hear it.
وَأَمَرْتُكُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ بِكُلِّ ٱلْأُمُورِ ٱلَّتِي تَعْمَلُونَهَا. ١٨ 18
And I commanded you at that time all the things that ye should do.
«ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلْنَا مِنْ حُورِيبَ، وَسَلَكْنَا كُلَّ ذَلِكَ ٱلْقَفْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ٱلْمَخُوفِ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْتُمْ فِي طَرِيقِ جَبَلِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ، كَمَا أَمَرَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا. وَجِئْنَا إِلَى قَادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ. ١٩ 19
And we departed from Horeb and went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw, on the way to the mountain of the Amorites, as Jehovah our God had commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.
فَقُلْتُ لَكُمْ: قَدْ جِئْتُمْ إِلَى جَبَلِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَانَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا. ٢٠ 20
And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorites, which Jehovah our God giveth us.
اُنْظُرْ. قَدْ جَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ ٱلْأَرْضَ أَمَامَكَ. ٱصْعَدْ تَمَلَّكْ كَمَا كَلَّمَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ آبَائِكَ. لَا تَخَفْ وَلَا تَرْتَعِبْ. ٢١ 21
Behold, Jehovah thy God hath set the land before thee: go up, take possession, as Jehovah the God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be dismayed.
فَتَقَدَّمْتُمْ إِلَيَّ جَمِيعُكُمْ وَقُلْتُمْ: دَعْنَا نُرْسِلْ رِجَالًا قُدَّامَنَا لِيَتَجَسَّسُوا لَنَا ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَيَرُدُّوا إِلَيْنَا خَبَرًا عَنِ ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّتِي نَصْعَدُ فِيهَا وَٱلْمُدُنِ ٱلَّتِي نَأْتِي إِلَيْهَا. ٢٢ 22
And ye came near to me all of you, and said, We will send men before us, who shall examine the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and of the cities to which we shall come.
فَحَسُنَ ٱلْكَلَامُ لَدَيَّ، فَأَخَذْتُ مِنْكُمُ ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا. رَجُلًا وَاحِدًا مِنْ كُلِّ سِبْطٍ. ٢٣ 23
And the matter was good in mine eyes; and I took twelve men of you, one man for a tribe.
فَٱنْصَرَفُوا وَصَعِدُوا إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى وَادِي أَشْكُولَ وَتَجَسَّسُوهُ، ٢٤ 24
And they turned and went up into the mountain, and came to the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.
وَأَخَذُوا فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ مِنْ أَثْمَارِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَنَزَلُوا بِهِ إِلَيْنَا، وَرَدُّوا لَنَا خَبَرًا وَقَالُوا: جَيِّدَةٌ هِيَ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَانَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا. ٢٥ 25
And they took of the fruit of the land in their hand, and brought it down unto us, and brought us answer, and said, The land is good that Jehovah our God hath given us.
«لَكِنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَشَاءُوا أَنْ تَصْعَدُوا، وَعَصَيْتُمْ قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، ٢٦ 26
But ye would not go up, and rebelled against the word of Jehovah your God;
وَتَمَرْمَرْتُمْ فِي خِيَامِكُمْ وَقُلْتُمُ: ٱلرَّبُّ بِسَبَبِ بُغْضَتِهِ لَنَا، قَدْ أَخْرَجَنَا مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ لِيَدْفَعَنَا إِلَى أَيْدِي ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ لِكَيْ يُهْلِكَنَا. ٢٧ 27
and ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because Jehovah hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.
إِلَى أَيْنَ نَحْنُ صَاعِدُونَ؟ قَدْ أَذَابَ إِخْوَتُنَا قُلُوبَنَا قَائِلِينَ: شَعْبٌ أَعْظَمُ وَأَطْوَلُ مِنَّا. مُدُنٌ عَظِيمَةٌ مُحَصَّنَةٌ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ، وَأَيْضًا قَدْ رَأَيْنَا بَنِي عَنَاقَ هُنَاكَ. ٢٨ 28
Whither shall we go up? Our brethren have made our hearts melt, saying, [They are] a people greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.
فَقُلْتُ لَكُمْ: لَا تَرْهَبُوا وَلَا تَخَافُوا مِنْهُمُ. ٢٩ 29
And I said unto you, Be not afraid, neither fear them;
ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمُ ٱلسَّائِرُ أَمَامَكُمْ هُوَ يُحَارِبُ عَنْكُمْ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا فَعَلَ مَعَكُمْ فِي مِصْرَ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِكُمْ ٣٠ 30
Jehovah your God who goeth before you, he will fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;
وَفِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، حَيْثُ رَأَيْتَ كَيْفَ حَمَلَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ كَمَا يَحْمِلُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱبْنَهُ فِي كُلِّ ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّتِي سَلَكْتُمُوهَا حَتَّى جِئْتُمْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانِ. ٣١ 31
and in the wilderness where thou hast seen that Jehovah thy God bore thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came to this place.
وَلَكِنْ فِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ لَسْتُمْ وَاثِقِينَ بِٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمُ ٣٢ 32
But In this thing ye did not believe Jehovah your God,
ٱلسَّائِرِ أَمَامَكُمْ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، لِيَلْتَمِسَ لَكُمْ مَكَانًا لِنُزُولِكُمْ، فِي نَارٍ لَيْلًا لِيُرِيَكُمُ ٱلطَّرِيقَ ٱلَّتِي تَسِيرُونَ فِيهَا، وَفِي سَحَابٍ نَهَارًا. ٣٣ 33
who went in the way before you, to search you out a place for your encamping, in fire by night, to shew you by what way ye should go, and in the cloud by day.
وَسَمِعَ ٱلرَّبُّ صَوْتَ كَلَامِكُمْ فَسَخِطَ وَأَقْسَمَ قَائِلًا: ٣٤ 34
And Jehovah heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and swore, saying,
لَنْ يَرَى إِنْسَانٌ مِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلنَّاسِ، مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ، ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلْجَيِّدَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَقْسَمْتُ أَنْ أُعْطِيَهَا لِآبَائِكُمْ، ٣٥ 35
None among these men, this evil generation, shall in any wise see that good land, which I swore to give unto your fathers!
مَا عَدَا كَالِبَ بْنَ يَفُنَّةَ. هُوَ يَرَاهَا، وَلَهُ أُعْطِي ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي وَطِئَهَا، وَلِبَنِيهِ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱتَّبَعَ ٱلرَّبَّ تَمَامًا. ٣٦ 36
Except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed Jehovah.
وَعَلَيَّ أَيْضًا غَضِبَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِسَبَبِكُمْ قَائِلًا: وَأَنْتَ أَيْضًا لَا تَدْخُلُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ. ٣٧ 37
Also Jehovah was angry with me on your account, saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither.
يَشُوعُ بْنُ نُونَ ٱلْوَاقِفُ أَمَامَكَ هُوَ يَدْخُلُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ. شَدِّدْهُ لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ يَقْسِمُهَا لِإِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣٨ 38
Joshua the son of Nun, who standeth before thee, he shall go in thither: strengthen him, for he shall cause Israel to inherit it.
وَأَمَّا أَطْفَالُكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ قُلْتُمْ يَكُونُونَ غَنِيمَةً، وَبَنُوكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلْخَيْرَ وَٱلشَّرَّ فَهُمْ يَدْخُلُونَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ، وَلَهُمْ أُعْطِيهَا وَهُمْ يَمْلِكُونَهَا. ٣٩ 39
And your little ones, of whom ye said, They shall be a prey, and your children, who this day know neither good nor evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَتَحَوَّلُوا وَٱرْتَحِلُوا إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ عَلَى طَرِيقِ بَحْرِ سُوفَ. ٤٠ 40
But ye, turn, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
«فَأَجَبْتُمْ وَقُلْتُمْ لِي: قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. نَحْنُ نَصْعَدُ وَنُحَارِبُ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا. وَتَنَطَّقْتُمْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ بِعُدَّةِ حَرْبِهِ، وَٱسْتَخْفَفْتُمُ ٱلصُّعُوْدَ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ. ٤١ 41
— And ye answered and said unto me, We have sinned against Jehovah, we will go up and fight, according to all that Jehovah our God hath commanded us. And ye girded on every man his weapons of war, and ye would go presumptuously up the hill.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: قُلْ لَهُمْ: لَا تَصْعَدُوا وَلَا تُحَارِبُوا، لِأَنِّي لَسْتُ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ لِئَلَّا تَنْكَسِرُوا أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِكُمْ. ٤٢ 42
And Jehovah said to me, Say unto them, Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.
فَكَلَّمْتُكُمْ وَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا بَلْ عَصَيْتُمْ قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَطَغَيْتُمْ، وَصَعِدْتُمْ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ. ٤٣ 43
And I spoke unto you, but ye would not hear, and ye rebelled against the word of Jehovah, and acted presumptuously, and went up the hill.
فَخَرَجَ ٱلْأَمُورِيُّونَ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْجَبَلِ لِلِقَائِكُمْ وَطَرَدُوكُمْ كَمَا يَفْعَلُ ٱلنَّحْلُ، وَكَسَرُوكُمْ فِي سِعِيرَ إِلَى حُرْمَةَ. ٤٤ 44
And the Amorite that dwelt on that hill came out against you, and chased you, like as bees do, and cut you in pieces in Seir, as far as Hormah.
فَرَجَعْتُمْ وَبَكَيْتُمْ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلَمْ يَسْمَعِ ٱلرَّبُّ لِصَوْتِكُمْ وَلَا أَصْغَى إِلَيْكُمْ. ٤٥ 45
And ye returned and wept before Jehovah, but Jehovah would not listen to your voice, nor give ear unto you.
وَقَعَدْتُمْ فِي قَادَشَ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً كَٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي قَعَدْتُمْ فِيهَا. ٤٦ 46
And ye abode in Kadesh many days, according unto the days that ye abode [there].
