لَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ أَفْرَايِمُ بِرَعْدَةٍ، تَرَفَّعَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَلَمَّا أَثِمَ بِبَعْلٍ مَاتَ. ١ 1
According to the word of Ephraim he adopted ordinances for himself in Israel; and he established them for Baal, and died.
وَٱلْآنَ يَزْدَادُونَ خَطِيَّةً، وَيَصْنَعُونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ تَمَاثِيلَ مَسْبُوكَةً مِنْ فِضَّتِهِمْ، أَصْنَامًا بِحَذَاقَتِهِمْ، كُلُّهَا عَمَلُ ٱلصُّنَّاعِ. عَنْهَا هُمْ يَقُولُونَ: «ذَابِحُو ٱلنَّاسِ يُقَبِّلُونَ ٱلْعُجُولَ». ٢ 2
And now they have sinned increasingly, and have made for themselves a molten image of their silver, according to the fashion of idols, the work of artificers accomplished for them: they say, Sacrifice men, for the calves have come to an end.
لِذَلِكَ يَكُونُونَ كَسَحَابِ ٱلصُّبْحِ، وَكَالنَّدَى ٱلْمَاضِي بَاكِرًا. كَعُصَافَةٍ تُخْطَفُ مِنَ ٱلْبَيْدَرِ، وَكَدُخَانٍ مِنَ ٱلْكُوَّةِ. ٣ 3
Therefore shall they be as a morning cloud, and as the early dew that passes away, as chaff blown away from the threshing-floor, and as a vapor from tears.
«وَأَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَإِلَهًا سُوَايَ لَسْتَ تَعْرِفُ، وَلَا مُخَلِّصَ غَيْرِي. ٤ 4
But I am the Lord thy God that establishes the heaven, and creates the earth, whose hands have framed the whole host of heaven: but I shewed them not to thee that thou shouldest go after them: and I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no God but me; and there is no Saviour beside me.
أَنَا عَرَفْتُكَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْعَطَشِ. ٥ 5
I tended thee as a shepherd in the wilderness, in an uninhabited land.
لَمَّا رَعَوْا شَبِعُوا. شَبِعُوا وَٱرْتَفَعَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ، لِذَلِكَ نَسُونِي. ٦ 6
According to their pastures, so they were completely filled; and their hearts were exalted; therefore they forgot me.
«فَأَكُونُ لَهُمْ كَأَسَدٍ. أَرْصُدُ عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقِ كَنَمِرٍ. ٧ 7
And I will be to them as a panther, and as a leopard.
أَصْدِمُهُمْ كَدُبَّةٍ مُثْكِلٍ، وَأَشُقُّ شَغَافَ قَلْبِهِمْ، وَآكُلُهُمْ هُنَاكَ كَلَبْوَةٍ. يُمَزِّقُهُمْ وَحْشُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. ٨ 8
I will meet them by the way of the Assyrians, as a she-bear excited, and I will rend the caul of their heart, and the lions' whelps of the thicket shall devour them there; the wild beasts of the field shall rend them in pieces.
«هَلَاكُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ أَنَّكَ عَلَيَّ، عَلَى عَوْنِكَ. ٩ 9
O Israel, who will aid [thee] in thy destruction?
فَأَيْنَ هُوَ مَلِكُكَ حَتَّى يُخَلِّصَكَ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِكَ؟ وَقُضَاتُكَ حَيْثُ قُلْتَ: أَعْطِنِي مَلِكًا وَرُؤَسَاءَ؟ ١٠ 10
Where is this thy king? let him even save thee in all thy cities: let him judge thee, of whom thou saidst, Give me a king and a prince.
أَنَا أَعْطَيْتُكَ مَلِكًا بِغَضَبِي وَأَخَذْتُهُ بِسَخَطِي. ١١ 11
And I gave thee a king in mine anger, and kept [him] back in my wrath.
«إِثْمُ أَفْرَايِمَ مَصْرُورٌ. خَطِيَّتُهُ مَكْنُوزَةٌ. ١٢ 12
Ephraim [has framed] a conspiracy of unrighteousness, his sin is hidden.
مَخَاضُ ٱلْوَالِدَةِ يَأْتِي عَلَيْهِ. هُوَ ٱبْنٌ غَيْرُ حَكِيمٍ، إِذْ لَمْ يَقِفْ فِي ٱلْوَقْتِ فِي مَوْلِدِ ٱلْبَنِينَ. ١٣ 13
Pains as of a woman in travail shall come upon him: he is thy wise son, because he shall not stay in the destruction of [thy] children.
«مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ أَفْدِيهِمْ. مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ أُخَلِّصُهُمْ. أَيْنَ أَوْبَاؤُكَ يَا مَوْتُ؟ أَيْنَ شَوْكَتُكِ يَا هَاوِيَةُ؟ تَخْتَفِي ٱلنَّدَامَةُ عَنْ عَيْنَيَّ». (Sheol h7585) ١٤ 14
I will deliver [them] out of the power of Hades, and will redeem them from death: where is thy penalty, O death? O Hades, where is thy sting? comfort is hidden from mine eyes. (Sheol h7585)
وَإِنْ كَانَ مُثْمِرًا بَيْنَ إِخْوَةٍ، تَأْتِي رِيحٌ شَرْقِيَّةٌ، رِيحُ ٱلرَّبِّ طَالِعَةً مِنَ ٱلْقَفْرِ فَتَجِفُّ عَيْنُهُ وَيَيْبَسُ يَنْبُوعُهُ. هِيَ تَنْهَبُ كَنْزَ كُلِّ مَتَاعٍ شَهِيٍّ. ١٥ 15
Forasmuch as he will cause a division among [his] brethren, the Lord shall bring upon him an east wind from the desert, and shall dry up his veins [and] quite drain his fountains: he shall dry up his land, and [spoil] all his precious vessels.
تُجَازَى ٱلسَّامِرَةُ لِأَنَّهَا قَدْ تَمَرَّدَتْ عَلَى إِلَهِهَا. بِٱلسَّيْفِ يَسْقُطُونَ. تُحَطَّمُ أَطْفَالُهُمْ، وَٱلْحَوَامِلُ تُشَقُّ. ١٦ 16
Samaria shall be utterly destroyed: for she has resisted her God; they shall fall by the sword, and their sucklings shall be dashed against the ground, and their women with child ripped up.
