< هُوشَع 9 >

لَا تَفْرَحْ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ طَرَبًا كَٱلشُّعُوبِ، لِأَنَّكَ قَدْ زَنَيْتَ عَنْ إِلَهِكَ. أَحْبَبْتَ ٱلْأُجْرَةَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ بَيَادِرِ ٱلْحِنْطَةِ. ١ 1
Rejoice not, O Israel, neither make merry, as [other] nations: for thou hast gone a-whoring from thy God; thou hast loved gifts upon every threshing-floor.
لَا يُطْعِمُهُمُ ٱلْبَيْدَرُ وَٱلْمِعْصَرَةُ، وَيَكْذِبُ عَلَيْهِمِ ٱلْمِسْطَارُ. ٢ 2
The threshing-floor and wine-press knew them not, and the wine disappointed them.
لَا يَسْكُنُونَ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلرَّبِّ، بَلْ يَرْجِعُ أَفْرَايِمُ إِلَى مِصْرَ، وَيَأْكُلُونَ ٱلنَّجِسَ فِي أَشُّورَ. ٣ 3
They dwelt not in the Lord's land: Ephraim dwelt in Egypt, and they shall eat unclean things among the Assyrians.
لَا يَسْكُبُونَ لِلرَّبِّ خَمْرًا وَلَا تَسُرُّهُ ذَبَائِحُهُمْ. إِنَّهَا لَهُمْ كَخُبْزِ ٱلْحُزْنِ. كُلُّ مَنْ أَكَلَهُ يَتَنَجَّسُ. إِنَّ خُبْزَهُمْ لِنَفْسِهِمْ. لَا يَدْخُلُ بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٤ 4
They have not offered wine to the Lord, neither have their sacrifices been sweet to him, [but] as the bread of mourning to them; all that eat them shall be defiled; for their bread for their soul shall not enter into the house of the Lord.
مَاذَا تَصْنَعُونَ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلْمَوْسِمِ، وَفِي يَوْمِ عِيدِ ٱلرَّبِّ؟ ٥ 5
What will ye do in the day of the general assembly, and in the day of the feast of the Lord?
إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ ذَهَبُوا مِنَ ٱلْخَرَابِ. تَجْمَعُهُمْ مِصْرُ. تَدْفِنُهُمْ مُوفُ. يَرِثُ ٱلْقَرِيصُ نَفَائِسَ فِضَّتِهِمْ. يَكُونُ ٱلْعَوْسَجُ فِي مَنَازِلِهِمْ. ٦ 6
Therefore, behold, they go forth from the trouble of Egypt, and Memphis shall receive them, and Machmas shall bury them: [as for] their silver, destruction shall inherit it; thorns [shall be] in their tents.
جَاءَتْ أَيَّامُ ٱلْعِقَابِ. جَاءَتْ أَيَّامُ ٱلْجَزَاءِ. سَيَعْرِفُ إِسْرَائِيلُ. اَلنَّبِيُّ أَحْمَقُ. إِنْسَانُ ٱلرُّوحِ مَجْنُونٌ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ إِثْمِكَ وَكَثْرَةِ ٱلْحِقْدِ. ٧ 7
The days of vengeance are come, the days of thy recompense are come; and Israel shall be afflicted as the prophet that is mad, as a man deranged: by reason of the multitude of thine iniquities thy madness has abounded.
أَفْرَايِمُ مُنْتَظَرٌ عِنْدَ إِلَهِي. اَلنَّبِيُّ فَخُّ صَيَّادٍ عَلَى جَمِيعِ طُرُقِهِ. حِقْدٌ فِي بَيْتِ إِلَهِهِ. ٨ 8
The watchman of Ephraim [was] with God: the prophet is a crooked snare in all his ways: they have established madness in the house of God.
قَدْ تَوَغَّلُوا، فَسَدُوا كَأَيَّامِ جِبْعَةَ. سَيَذْكُرُ إِثْمَهُمْ. سَيُعَاقِبُ خَطَايَاهُمْ. ٩ 9
They have corrupted themselves according to the days of the hill: he will remember their iniquities, he will take vengeance on their sins.
«وَجَدْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ كَعِنَبٍ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. رَأَيْتُ آبَاءَكُمْ كَبَاكُورَةٍ عَلَى تِينَةٍ فِي أَوَّلِهَا. أَمَّا هُمْ فَجَاءُوا إِلَى بَعْلِ فَغُورَ، وَنَذَرُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ لِلْخِزْيِ، وَصَارُوا رِجْسًا كَمَا أَحَبُّوا. ١٠ 10
I found Israel as grapes in the wilderness, and I saw their fathers as an early watchman in a fig-tree: they went in to Beel-phegor, and were shamefully estranged, and the abominable became as the beloved.
أَفْرَايِمُ تَطِيرُ كَرَامَتُهُمْ كَطَائِرٍ مِنَ ٱلْوِلَادَةِ وَمِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ وَمِنَ ٱلْحَبَلِ. ١١ 11
Ephraim has flown away as a bird; their glories from the birth, and the travail, and the conception.
وَإِنْ رَبَّوْا أَوْلَادَهُمْ أُثْكِلُهُمْ إِيَّاهُمْ حَتَّى لَا يَكُونَ إِنْسَانٌ. وَيْلٌ لَهُمْ أَيْضًا مَتَى ٱنْصَرَفْتُ عَنْهُمْ! ١٢ 12
For even if they should rear their children, yet shall they be utterly bereaved: wherefore also there is woe to them, [though] my flesh is of them.
أَفْرَايِمُ كَمَا أَرَى كَصُورٍ مَغْرُوسٍ فِي مَرْعًى، وَلَكِنَّ أَفْرَايِمَ سَيُخْرِجُ بَنِيهِ إِلَى ٱلْقَاتِلِ». ١٣ 13
Ephraim, [even] as I saw, gave their children for a prey; yea, Ephraim [was ready] to bring out his children to slaughter.
أَعْطِهِمْ يَارَبُّ. مَاذَا تُعْطِي؟ أَعْطِهِمْ رَحِمًا مُسْقِطًا وَثَدْيَيْنِ يَبِسَيْنِ. ١٤ 14
Give them, O Lord: what wilt thou give them? a miscarrying womb, and dry breasts.
«كُلُّ شَرِّهِمْ فِي ٱلْجِلْجَالِ. إِنِّي هُنَاكَ أَبْغَضْتُهُمْ. مِنْ أَجْلِ سُوءِ أَفْعَالِهِمْ أَطْرُدُهُمْ مِنْ بَيْتِي. لَا أَعُودُ أُحِبُّهُمْ. جَمِيعُ رُؤَسَائِهِمْ مُتَمَرِّدُونَ. ١٥ 15
All their wickedness is in Galgal: for there I hated them: because of the wickedness of their practices, I will cast them out of my house, I will not love them any more: all their princes are disobedient.
أَفْرَايِمُ مَضْرُوبٌ. أَصْلُهُمْ قَدْ جَفَّ. لَا يَصْنَعُونَ ثَمَرًا. وَإِنْ وَلَدُوا أُمِيتُ مُشْتَهَيَاتِ بُطُونِهِمْ». ١٦ 16
Ephraim is sick, he is dried up at his roots, he shall in no wise any more bear fruit: wherefore even if they should beget [children], I will kill the desired [fruit] of their womb.
يَرْفُضُهُمْ إِلَهِي لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لَهُ، فَيَكُونُونَ تَائِهِينَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. ١٧ 17
God shall reject them, because they have not hearkened to him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
