لَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ أَفْرَايِمُ بِرَعْدَةٍ، تَرَفَّعَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَلَمَّا أَثِمَ بِبَعْلٍ مَاتَ. ١ 1
When Ephraim spoke trembling, he exalted himself in Israel; but when he offended in Baal, he 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 sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, [and] idols according to their own understanding, all of it the work of artificers: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves.
لِذَلِكَ يَكُونُونَ كَسَحَابِ ٱلصُّبْحِ، وَكَالنَّدَى ٱلْمَاضِي بَاكِرًا. كَعُصَافَةٍ تُخْطَفُ مِنَ ٱلْبَيْدَرِ، وَكَدُخَانٍ مِنَ ٱلْكُوَّةِ. ٣ 3
Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away, as the chaff [that] is driven with the whirlwind from the floor, and as the smoke from the chimney.
«وَأَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَإِلَهًا سُوَايَ لَسْتَ تَعْرِفُ، وَلَا مُخَلِّصَ غَيْرِي. ٤ 4
Yet I [am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no God but me: for [there is] no savior besides me.
أَنَا عَرَفْتُكَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْعَطَشِ. ٥ 5
I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drouth.
لَمَّا رَعَوْا شَبِعُوا. شَبِعُوا وَٱرْتَفَعَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ، لِذَلِكَ نَسُونِي. ٦ 6
According to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they forgotten me.
«فَأَكُونُ لَهُمْ كَأَسَدٍ. أَرْصُدُ عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقِ كَنَمِرٍ. ٧ 7
Therefore I will be to them as a lion: as a leopard by the way will I observe [them].
أَصْدِمُهُمْ كَدُبَّةٍ مُثْكِلٍ، وَأَشُقُّ شَغَافَ قَلْبِهِمْ، وَآكُلُهُمْ هُنَاكَ كَلَبْوَةٍ. يُمَزِّقُهُمْ وَحْشُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. ٨ 8
I will meet them as a bear [that is] bereaved [of her whelps], and will rend the caul of their heart, and there will I devour them like a lion: the wild beast shall tear them.
«هَلَاكُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ أَنَّكَ عَلَيَّ، عَلَى عَوْنِكَ. ٩ 9
O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in me [is] thy help.
فَأَيْنَ هُوَ مَلِكُكَ حَتَّى يُخَلِّصَكَ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِكَ؟ وَقُضَاتُكَ حَيْثُ قُلْتَ: أَعْطِنِي مَلِكًا وَرُؤَسَاءَ؟ ١٠ 10
I will be thy king: where [is any other] that may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges of whom thou saidst, Give me a king and princes?
أَنَا أَعْطَيْتُكَ مَلِكًا بِغَضَبِي وَأَخَذْتُهُ بِسَخَطِي. ١١ 11
I gave thee a king in my anger, and took [him] away in my wrath.
«إِثْمُ أَفْرَايِمَ مَصْرُورٌ. خَطِيَّتُهُ مَكْنُوزَةٌ. ١٢ 12
The iniquity of Ephraim [is] bound up; his sin [is] hid.
مَخَاضُ ٱلْوَالِدَةِ يَأْتِي عَلَيْهِ. هُوَ ٱبْنٌ غَيْرُ حَكِيمٍ، إِذْ لَمْ يَقِفْ فِي ٱلْوَقْتِ فِي مَوْلِدِ ٱلْبَنِينَ. ١٣ 13
The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him: he [is] an unwise son; for he should not stay long in [the place of] the breaking forth of 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 ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues, O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from my 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
Though he is fruitful among [his] brethren, an east wind shall come, the wind of the LORD shall come up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: he shall pillage the treasure of all pleasant vessels.
تُجَازَى ٱلسَّامِرَةُ لِأَنَّهَا قَدْ تَمَرَّدَتْ عَلَى إِلَهِهَا. بِٱلسَّيْفِ يَسْقُطُونَ. تُحَطَّمُ أَطْفَالُهُمْ، وَٱلْحَوَامِلُ تُشَقُّ. ١٦ 16
Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.
