اَلْخُرُوجُ 33

١ 1 وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «ٱذْهَبِ ٱصْعَدْ مِنْ هُنَا أَنْتَ وَٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلَّذِي أَصْعَدْتَهُ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفْتُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ قَائِلًا: لِنَسْلِكَ أُعْطِيهَا.

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, Depart, go up from here, thou and the people that thou have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, To thy seed will I give it.

٢ 2 وَأَنَا أُرْسِلُ أَمَامَكَ مَلَاكًا، وَأَطْرُدُ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ وَٱلْحِثِّيِّينَ وَٱلْفِرِزِّيِّينَ وَٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيِّينَ.

And I will send an agent before thee, and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite-

٣ 3 إِلَى أَرْضٍ تَفِيضُ لَبَنًا وَعَسَلًا. فَإِنِّي لَا أَصْعَدُ فِي وَسَطِكَ لِأَنَّكَ شَعْبٌ صُلْبُ ٱلرَّقَبَةِ، لِئَلَّا أُفْنِيَكَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ».

to a land flowing with milk and honey. For I will not go up in the midst of thee, for thou are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume thee on the way.

٤ 4 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلشَّعْبُ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلسُّوءَ نَاحُوا وَلَمْ يَضَعْ أَحَدٌ زِينَتَهُ عَلَيْهِ.

And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned, and no man put his ornaments on him.

٥ 5 وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ قَدْ قَالَ لِمُوسَى: «قُلْ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: أَنْتُمْ شَعْبٌ صُلْبُ ٱلرَّقَبَةِ. إِنْ صَعِدْتُ لَحْظَةً وَاحِدَةً فِي وَسَطِكُمْ أَفْنَيْتُكُمْ. وَلَكِنِ ٱلْآنَ ٱخْلَعْ زِينَتَكَ عَنْكَ فَأَعْلَمَ مَاذَا أَصْنَعُ بِكَ».

And Jehovah said to Moses, Say to the sons of Israel, Ye are a stiff-necked people. If I go up into the midst of thee for one moment, I shall consume thee. Therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do to thee.

٦ 6 فَنَزَعَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ زِينَتَهُمْ مِنْ جَبَلِ حُورِيبَ.

And the sons of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments from mount Horeb onward.

٧ 7 وَأَخَذَ مُوسَى ٱلْخَيْمَةَ وَنَصَبَهَا لَهُ خَارِجَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، بَعِيدًا عَنِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، وَدَعَاهَا «خَيْمَةَ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ». فَكَانَ كُلُّ مَنْ يَطْلُبُ ٱلرَّبَّ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ ٱلَّتِي خَارِجَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ.

Now Moses used to take the tent and to pitch it outside the camp, afar off from the camp, and he called it, The tent of meeting. And it came to pass, that everyone who sought Jehovah went out to the tent of meeting, which was outside the camp.

٨ 8 وَكَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ إِذَا خَرَجَ مُوسَى إِلَى ٱلْخَيْمَةِ يَقُومُونَ وَيَقِفُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي بَابِ خَيْمَتِهِ وَيَنْظُرُونَ وَرَاءَ مُوسَى حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ ٱلْخَيْمَةَ.

And it came to pass, when Moses went out to the tent, that all the people rose up, and stood, every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tent.

٩ 9 وَكَانَ عَمُودُ ٱلسَّحَابِ إِذَا دَخَلَ مُوسَى ٱلْخَيْمَةَ، يَنْزِلُ وَيَقِفُ عِنْدَ بَابِ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ. وَيَتَكَلَّمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مَعَ مُوسَى.

And it came to pass, when Moses entered into the tent, the pillar of cloud descended, and stood at the door of the tent, and Jehovah spoke with Moses.

١٠ 10 فَيَرَى جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ عَمُودَ ٱلسَّحَابِ، وَاقِفًا عِنْدَ بَابِ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ، وَيَقُومُ كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَيَسْجُدُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي بَابِ خَيْمَتِهِ.

And all the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at the door of the tent. And all the people rose up and worshiped, every man at his tent door.

١١ 11 وَيُكَلِّمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَجْهًا لِوَجْهٍ، كَمَا يُكَلِّمُ ٱلرَّجُلُ صَاحِبَهُ. وَإِذَا رَجَعَ مُوسَى إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ كَانَ خَادِمُهُ يَشُوعُ بْنُ نُونَ ٱلْغُلَامُ، لَا يَبْرَحُ مِنْ دَاخِلِ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ.

And Jehovah spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend, and he turned again into the camp. But his minister Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart out of the tent.

١٢ 12 وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِلرَّبِّ: «ٱنْظُرْ. أَنْتَ قَائِلٌ لِي: أَصْعِدْ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ، وَأَنْتَ لَمْ تُعَرِّفْنِي مَنْ تُرْسِلُ مَعِي. وَأَنْتَ قَدْ قُلْتَ: عَرَفْتُكَ بِٱسْمِكَ، وَوَجَدْتَ أَيْضًا نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيَّ.

And Moses said to Jehovah, See, thou say to me, Bring up this people, and thou have not let me know whom thou will send with me. Yet thou have said, I know thee by name, and thou have also found favor in my sight.

١٣ 13 فَٱلْآنَ إِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ وَجَدْتُ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْكَ فَعَلِّمْنِي طَرِيقَكَ حَتَّى أَعْرِفَكَ لِكَيْ أَجِدَ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْكَ. وَٱنْظُرْ أَنَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمَّةَ شَعْبُكَ».

Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thy sight, show me now thy ways, that I may know thee, to the end that I may find favor in thy sight. And consider that this nation is thy people.

١٤ 14 فَقَالَ: «وَجْهِي يَسِيرُ فَأُرِيحُكَ».

And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.

١٥ 15 فَقَالَ لَهُ: «إِنْ لَمْ يَسِرْ وَجْهُكَ فَلَا تُصْعِدْنَا مِنْ هَهُنَا،

And Moses said to him, If thy presence go not, do not carry us up from here.

١٦ 16 فَإِنَّهُ بِمَاذَا يُعْلَمُ أَنِّي وَجَدْتُ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْكَ أَنَا وَشَعْبُكَ؟ أَلَيْسَ بِمَسِيرِكَ مَعَنَا؟ فَنَمْتَازَ أَنَا وَشَعْبُكَ عَنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ».

For how shall it now be known that I have found favor in thy sight, I and thy people? Is it not in that thou go with us, so that we are separated, I and thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth?

١٧ 17 فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرُ أَيْضًا ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمْتَ عَنْهُ أَفْعَلُهُ، لِأَنَّكَ وَجَدْتَ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيَّ، وَعَرَفْتُكَ بِٱسْمِكَ».

And Jehovah said to Moses, I will do this thing also that thou have spoken, for thou have found favor in my sight, and I know thee by name.

١٨ 18 فَقَالَ: «أَرِنِي مَجْدَكَ».

And he said, Show me, I pray thee, thy glory.

١٩ 19 فَقَالَ: «أُجِيزُ كُلَّ جُودَتِي قُدَّامَكَ. وَأُنَادِي بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ قُدَّامَكَ. وَأَتَرَاءَفُ عَلَى مَنْ أَتَرَاءَفُ، وَأَرْحَمُ مَنْ أَرْحَمُ».

And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and will proclaim the name of Jehovah before thee. I will be merciful to whom I may be merciful, and I will be compassionate to whomever I may be compassionate.

٢٠ 20 وَقَالَ: «لَا تَقْدِرُ أَنْ تَرَى وَجْهِي، لِأَنَّ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ لَا يَرَانِي وَيَعِيشُ».

And he said, Thou cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live.

٢١ 21 وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «هُوَذَا عِنْدِي مَكَانٌ، فَتَقِفُ عَلَى ٱلصَّخْرَةِ.

And Jehovah said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shall stand upon the rock.

٢٢ 22 وَيَكُونُ مَتَى ٱجْتَازَ مَجْدِي، أَنِّي أَضَعُكَ فِي نُقْرَةٍ مِنَ ٱلصَّخْرَةِ، وَأَسْتُرُكَ بِيَدِي حَتَّى أَجْتَازَ.

And it shall come to pass, while my glory passes by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand until I have passed by.

٢٣ 23 ثُمَّ أَرْفَعُ يَدِي فَتَنْظُرُ وَرَائِي، وَأَمَّا وَجْهِي فَلَا يُرَى».

And I will take away my hand, and thou shall see my back, but my face shall not be seen.
