< اَلْخُرُوجُ 16 >

ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلُوا مِنْ إِيلِيمَ. وَأَتَى كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ سِينٍ، ٱلَّتِي بَيْنَ إِيلِيمَ وَسِينَاءَ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْخَامِسَ عَشَرَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي بَعْدَ خُرُوجِهِمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. ١ 1
And they set out from Elim. And the entire multitude of the sons of Israel arrived at the desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month, after they departed from the land of Egypt.
فَتَذَمَّرَ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. ٢ 2
And the entire congregation of the sons of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness.
وَقَالَ لَهُمَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ: «لَيْتَنَا مُتْنَا بِيَدِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، إِذْ كُنَّا جَالِسِينَ عِنْدَ قُدُورِ ٱللَّحْمِ نَأْكُلُ خُبْزًا لِلشَّبَعِ. فَإِنَّكُمَا أَخْرَجْتُمَانَا إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْقَفْرِ لِكَيْ تُمِيتَا كُلَّ هَذَا ٱلْجُمْهُورِ بِٱلْجُوعِ». ٣ 3
And the sons of Israel said to them: “If only we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat around bowls of meat and ate bread until filled. Why have you led us away, into this desert, so that you might kill the entire multitude with famine?”
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «هَا أَنَا أُمْطِرُ لَكُمْ خُبْزًا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. فَيَخْرُجُ ٱلشَّعْبُ وَيَلْتَقِطُونَ حَاجَةَ ٱلْيَوْمِ بِيَوْمِهَا. لِكَيْ أَمْتَحِنَهُمْ، أَيَسْلُكُونَ فِي نَامُوسِي أَمْ لَا. ٤ 4
Then the Lord said to Moses: “Behold, I will rain down bread from heaven for you. Let the people go out and collect what is sufficient for each day, so that I may test them, as to whether or not they will walk in my law.
وَيَكُونُ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّادِسِ أَنَّهُمْ يُهَيِّئُونَ مَا يَجِيئُونَ بِهِ فَيَكُونُ ضِعْفَ مَا يَلْتَقِطُونَهُ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا». ٥ 5
But on the sixth day, let them prepare what they use for carrying, and let there be double what they were accustomed to collect on a single day.”
فَقَالَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ لِجَمِيعِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «فِي ٱلْمَسَاءِ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ أَخْرَجَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. ٦ 6
And Moses and Aaron said to the sons of Israel: “In the evening, you will know that the Lord has led you away from the land of Egypt.
وَفِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ تَرَوْنَ مَجْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِٱسْتِمَاعِهِ تَذَمُّرَكُمْ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَمَاذَا حَتَّى تَتَذَمَّرُوا عَلَيْنَا؟». ٧ 7
And in the morning, you will see the glory of the Lord. For he has heard your murmuring against the Lord. But as for us, truly what are we, that you would whisper against us?”
وَقَالَ مُوسَى: «ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يُعْطِيكُمْ فِي ٱلْمَسَاءِ لَحْمًا لِتَأْكُلُوا، وَفِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ خُبْزًا لِتَشْبَعُوا، لِٱسْتِمَاعِ ٱلرَّبِّ تَذَمُّرَكُمُ ٱلَّذِي تَتَذَمَّرُونَ عَلَيْهِ. وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَمَاذَا؟ لَيْسَ عَلَيْنَا تَذَمُّرُكُمْ بَلْ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ». ٨ 8
And Moses said: “In the evening, the Lord will give you flesh to eat, and in the morning, bread in fullness. For he has heard your murmurings that you have murmured against him. For what are we? Your murmuring is not against us, but against the Lord.”
وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِهَارُونَ: «قُلْ لِكُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: ٱقْتَرِبُوا إِلَى أَمَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ سَمِعَ تَذَمُّرَكُمْ». ٩ 9
Moses also said to Aaron: “Say to the whole congregation of the sons of Israel, ‘Approach before the Lord. For he has heard your murmuring.’”
فَحَدَثَ إِذْ كَانَ هَارُونُ يُكَلِّمُ كُلَّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّهُمُ ٱلْتَفَتُوا نَحْوَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَإِذَا مَجْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ قَدْ ظَهَرَ فِي ٱلسَّحَابِ. ١٠ 10
And when Aaron spoke to the entire assembly of the sons of Israel, they looked out toward the wilderness. And behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.
فَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا: ١١ 11
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
«سَمِعْتُ تَذَمُّرَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. كَلِّمْهُمْ قَائِلًا: فِي ٱلْعَشِيَّةِ تَأْكُلُونَ لَحْمًا، وَفِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ تَشْبَعُونَ خُبْزًا، وَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ». ١٢ 12
“I have heard the murmuring of the sons of Israel. Say to them: ‘In the evening, you will eat flesh, and in the morning, you will be filled with bread. And you shall know that I am the Lord your God.’”
فَكَانَ فِي ٱلْمَسَاءِ أَنَّ ٱلسَّلْوَى صَعِدَتْ وَغَطَّتِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةَ. وَفِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ كَانَ سَقِيطُ ٱلنَّدَى حَوَالَيِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ. ١٣ 13
Therefore, it happened in the evening: quails, rising up, covered the camp. Likewise, in the morning, a dew lay all around the camp.
وَلَمَّا ٱرْتَفَعَ سَقِيطُ ٱلنَّدَى إِذَا عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ شَيْءٌ دَقِيقٌ مِثْلُ قُشُورٍ. دَقِيقٌ كَٱلْجَلِيدِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. ١٤ 14
And when it had covered the face of the earth, it appeared, in the wilderness, small and as if crushed with a pestle, similar to hoar-frost on the ground.
فَلَمَّا رَأَى بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ قَالُوا بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «مَنْ هُوَ؟» لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا مَا هُوَ. فَقَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى: «هُوَ ٱلْخُبْزُ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَاكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِتَأْكُلُوا. ١٥ 15
When the sons of Israel had seen it, they said one to another: “Manhu?” which means “What is this?” For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them: “This is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat.
هَذَا هُوَ ٱلشَّيْءُ ٱلَّذِي أَمَرَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ. اِلْتَقِطُوا مِنْهُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى حَسَبِ أُكْلِهِ. عُمِرًا لِلرَّأْسِ عَلَى عَدَدِ نُفُوسِكُمْ تَأْخُذُونَ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ لِلَّذِينَ فِي خَيْمَتِهِ». ١٦ 16
This is the word that the Lord has instructed. Let each one collect as much of it as is sufficient to eat. One omer for each head. According to the number of your souls which live in a tent, so will you take of it.”
فَفَعَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ هَكَذَا، وَٱلْتَقَطُوا بَيْنَ مُكَثِّرٍ وَمُقَلِّلٍ. ١٧ 17
And the sons of Israel did so. And they collected: some more, others less.
وَلَمَّا كَالُوا بِٱلْعُمِرِ، لَمْ يُفْضِلِ ٱلْمُكَثِّرُ وَٱلْمُقَلِّلُ لَمْ يُنْقِصْ. كَانُوا قَدِ ٱلْتَقَطُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى حَسَبِ أُكْلِهِ. ١٨ 18
And they measured by the measure of an omer. He who collected more, did not have too much; nor did he who prepared less, find too little. But each one gathered according to what they were able to eat.
وَقَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى: «لَا يُبْقِ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ». ١٩ 19
And Moses said to them, “Let no one leave any of it behind until morning.”
لَكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِمُوسَى، بَلْ أَبْقَى مِنْهُ أُنَاسٌ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ، فَتَوَلَّدَ فِيهِ دُودٌ وَأَنْتَنَ. فَسَخَطَ عَلَيْهِمْ مُوسَى. ٢٠ 20
And they did not listen to him, but they left some of it behind until morning, and it began to swarm with worms, and it putrefied. And Moses became angry against them.
وَكَانُوا يَلْتَقِطُونَهُ صَبَاحًا فَصَبَاحًا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى حَسَبِ أُكْلِهِ. وَإِذَا حَمِيَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ كَانَ يَذُوبُ. ٢١ 21
Then each one collected, in the morning, as much as would be sufficient to eat. And after the sun became hot, it melted.
ثُمَّ كَانَ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّادِسِ أَنَّهُمُ ٱلْتَقَطُوا خُبْزًا مُضَاعَفًا، عُمِرَيْنِ لِلْوَاحِدِ. فَجَاءَ كُلُّ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ وَأَخْبَرُوا مُوسَى. ٢٢ 22
But on the sixth day, they collected a double portion, that is, two omers for each man. Then all the leaders among the multitude came, and they discoursed with Moses.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَذَا مَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: غَدًا عُطْلَةٌ، سَبْتٌ مُقَدَّسٌ لِلرَّبِّ. ٱخْبِزُوا مَا تَخْبِزُونَ وَٱطْبُخُوا مَا تَطْبُخُونَ. وَكُلُّ مَا فَضِلَ ضَعُوهُ عِنْدَكُمْ لِيُحْفَظَ إِلَى ٱلْغَدِ». ٢٣ 23
And he said to them: “This is what the Lord has spoken: Tomorrow, the rest day of the Sabbath, has been sanctified to the Lord. Whatever would be done, do it now. And whatever would be cooked, cook it now. Then anything that will have been left over, store it until morning.”
فَوَضَعُوهُ إِلَى ٱلْغَدِ كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى، فَلَمْ يُنْتِنْ وَلَا صَارَ فِيهِ دُودٌ. ٢٤ 24
And they did just as Moses had instructed, and it did not putrefy, nor were there any worms found in it.
فَقَالَ مُوسَى: «كُلُوهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ، لِأَنَّ لِلرَّبِّ ٱلْيَوْمَ سَبْتًا. ٱلْيَوْمَ لَا تَجِدُونَهُ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ. ٢٥ 25
And Moses said: “Eat it today, because it is the Sabbath of the Lord. Today it will not be found in the field.
سِتَّةَ أَيَّامٍ تَلْتَقِطُونَهُ، وَأَمَّا ٱلْيَوْمُ ٱلسَّابِعُ فَفِيهِ سَبْتٌ، لَا يُوجَدُ فِيهِ». ٢٦ 26
Gather for six days. But on the seventh day, it is the Sabbath of the Lord, for which reason it will not be found.”
وَحَدَثَ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ أَنَّ بَعْضَ ٱلشَّعْبِ خَرَجُوا لِيَلْتَقِطُوا فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا. ٢٧ 27
And the seventh day arrived. And some of the people, going out to collect it, did not find it.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «إِلَى مَتَى تَأْبَوْنَ أَنْ تَحْفَظُوا وَصَايَايَ وَشَرَائِعِي؟ ٢٨ 28
Then the Lord said to Moses: “How long will you be unwilling to keep my commandments and my law?
اُنْظُرُوا! إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ أَعْطَاكُمُ ٱلسَّبْتَ. لِذَلِكَ هُوَ يُعْطِيكُمْ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّادِسِ خُبْزَ يَوْمَيْنِ. ٱجْلِسُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي مَكَانِهِ. لَا يَخْرُجْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ مَكَانِهِ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ». ٢٩ 29
See how the Lord has given you the Sabbath, and, because of this, on the sixth day he distributes to you a double portion. Let each one remain with his own, and let no one go forth from his place on the seventh day.”
فَٱسْتَرَاحَ ٱلشَّعْبُ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ. ٣٠ 30
And the people kept the Sabbath on the seventh day.
وَدَعَا بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱسْمَهُ «مَنًّا». وَهُوَ كَبِزْرِ ٱلْكُزْبَرَةِ، أَبْيَضُ، وَطَعْمُهُ كَرِقَاقٍ بِعَسَلٍ. ٣١ 31
And the house of Israel called its name ‘Manna.’ It was like white coriander seed, and its taste was like wheat flour with honey.
وَقَالَ مُوسَى: «هَذَا هُوَ ٱلشَّيْءُ ٱلَّذِي أَمَرَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ. مِلْءُ ٱلْعُمِرِ مِنْهُ يَكُونُ لِلْحِفْظِ فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ. لِكَيْ يَرَوْا ٱلْخُبْزَ ٱلَّذِي أَطْعَمْتُكُمْ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ حِينَ أَخْرَجْتُكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ». ٣٢ 32
Then Moses said: “This is the word that the Lord has instructed: Fill an omer of it, and let it be kept for future generations hereafter, so that they may know the bread, with which I nourished you in the wilderness, when you had been led away from the land of Egypt.”
وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِهَارُونَ: «خُذْ قِسْطًا وَاحِدًا وَٱجْعَلْ فِيهِ مِلْءَ ٱلْعُمِرِ مَنًّا، وَضَعْهُ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِلْحِفْظِ فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ». ٣٣ 33
And Moses said to Aaron, “Take one vessel, and put manna into it, as much as an omer is able to hold. And store it in the sight of the Lord, to keep for your generations,
كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَضَعَهُ هَارُونُ أَمَامَ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ لِلْحِفْظِ. ٣٤ 34
just as the Lord instructed Moses.” And so, Aaron placed it in the tabernacle, in reserve.
وَأَكَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمَنَّ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً حَتَّى جَاءُوا إِلَى أَرْضٍ عَامِرَةٍ. أَكَلُوا ٱلْمَنَّ حَتَّى جَاءُوا إِلَى طَرَفِ أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. ٣٥ 35
Now the sons of Israel ate manna for forty years, until they arrived in a habitable land. With this food they were nourished, even until they touched the borders of the land of Canaan.
وَأَمَّا ٱلْعُمِرُ فَهُوَ عُشْرُ ٱلْإِيفَةِ. ٣٦ 36
Now an omer is a tenth part of an ephah.
