< إِرْمِيَا 11 >

اَلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي صَارَ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ١ 1
The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
«ٱسْمَعُوا كَلَامَ هَذَا ٱلْعَهْدِ، وَكَلِّمُوا رِجَالَ يَهُوذَا وَسُكَّانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ. ٢ 2
“Hear the words of this covenant, and speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
فَتَقُولُ لَهُمْ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: مَلْعُونٌ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلَّذِي لَا يَسْمَعُ كَلَامَ هَذَا ٱلْعَهْدِ، ٣ 3
and say to them, Yahweh, the God of Israel says: ‘Cursed is the man who does not hear the words of this covenant,
ٱلَّذِي أَمَرْتُ بِهِ آبَاءَكُمْ يَوْمَ أَخْرَجْتُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، مِنْ كُورِ ٱلْحَدِيدِ قَائِلًا: ٱسْمَعُوا صَوْتِي وَٱعْمَلُوا بِهِ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا آمُرُكُمْ بِهِ، فَتَكُونُوا لِي شَعْبًا، وَأَنَا أَكُونُ لَكُمْ إِلَهًا، ٤ 4
which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace,’ saying, ‘Obey my voice and do them, according to all which I command you; so you shall be my people, and I will be your God;
لِأُقِيمَ ٱلْحَلْفَ ٱلَّذِي حَلَفْتُ لِآبَائِكُمْ أَنْ أُعْطِيَهُمْ أَرْضًا تَفِيضُ لَبَنًا وَعَسَلًا كَهَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ». فَأَجَبْتُ وَقُلْتُ: «آمِينَ يَارَبُّ». ٥ 5
that I may establish the oath which I swore to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey,’ as it is today.” Then I answered, and said, “Amen, Yahweh.”
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «نَادِ بِكُلِّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ فِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا، وَفِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ قَائِلًا: ٱسْمَعُوا كَلَامَ هَذَا ٱلْعَهْدِ وَٱعْمَلُوا بِهِ. ٦ 6
Yahweh said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Hear the words of this covenant, and do them.
لِأَنِّي أَشْهَدْتُ عَلَى آبَائِكُمْ إِشْهَادًا يَوْمَ أَصْعَدْتُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، مُبْكِرًا وَمُشْهِدًا قَائِلًا: ٱسْمَعُوا صَوْتِي. ٧ 7
For I earnestly protested to your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, even to this day, rising early and protesting, saying, “Obey my voice.”
فَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا وَلَمْ يُمِيلُوا أُذُنَهُمْ، بَلْ سَلَكُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي عِنَادِ قَلْبِهِ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ. فَجَلَبْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ كُلَّ كَلَامِ هَذَا ٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلَّذِي أَمَرْتُهُمْ أَنْ يَصْنَعُوهُ وَلَمْ يَصْنَعُوهُ». ٨ 8
Yet they did not obey, nor turn their ear, but everyone walked in the stubbornness of their evil heart. Therefore I brought on them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they did not do them.’”
وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي: «تُوجَدُ فِتْنَةٌ بَيْنَ رِجَالِ يَهُوذَا وَسُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ. ٩ 9
Yahweh said to me, “A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
قَدْ رَجَعُوا إِلَى آثَامِ آبَائِهِمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَبَوْا أَنْ يَسْمَعُوا كَلَامِي، وَقَدْ ذَهَبُوا وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى لِيَعْبُدُوهَا. قَدْ نَقَضَ بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَيْتُ يَهُوذَا عَهْدِي ٱلَّذِي قَطَعْتُهُ مَعَ آبَائِهِمْ. ١٠ 10
They have turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, who refused to hear my words. They have gone after other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا جَالِبٌ عَلَيْهِمْ شَرًّا لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا مِنْهُ، وَيَصْرُخُونَ إِلَيَّ فَلَا أَسْمَعُ لَهُمْ. ١١ 11
Therefore Yahweh says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on them which they will not be able to escape; and they will cry to me, but I will not listen to them.
فَيَنْطَلِقُ مُدُنُ يَهُوذَا وَسُكَّانُ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَيَصْرُخُونَ إِلَى ٱلْآلِهَةِ ٱلَّتِي يُبَخِّرُونَ لَهَا، فَلَنْ تُخَلِّصَهُمْ فِي وَقْتِ بَلِيَّتِهِمْ. ١٢ 12
Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go and cry to the gods to which they offer incense, but they will not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
لِأَنَّهُ بِعَدَدِ مُدُنِكَ صَارَتْ آلِهَتُكَ يَا يَهُوذَا، وَبِعَدَدِ شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَضَعْتُمْ مَذَابِحَ لِلْخِزْيِ، مَذَابِحَ لِلتَّبْخِيرِ لِلْبَعْلِ. ١٣ 13
For according to the number of your cities are your gods, Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem you have set up altars to the shameful thing, even altars to burn incense to Baal.’
وَأَنْتَ فَلَا تُصَلِّ لِأَجْلِ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَلَا تَرْفَعْ لِأَجْلِهِمْ دُعَاءً وَلَا صَلَاةً، لِأَنِّي لَا أَسْمَعُ فِي وَقْتِ صُرَاخِهِمْ إِلَيَّ مِنْ قِبَلِ بَلِيَّتِهِمْ. ١٤ 14
“Therefore do not pray for this people. Do not lift up cry or prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry to me because of their trouble.
«مَا لِحَبِيبَتِي فِي بَيْتِي؟ قَدْ عَمِلَتْ فَظَائِعَ كَثِيرَةً، وَٱللَّحْمُ ٱلْمُقَدَّسُ قَدْ عَبَرَ عَنْكِ. إِذَا صَنَعْتِ ٱلشَّرَّ حِينَئِذٍ تَبْتَهِجِينَ. ١٥ 15
What has my beloved to do in my house, since she has behaved lewdly with many, and the holy flesh has passed from you? When you do evil, then you rejoice.”
زَيْتُونَةً خَضْرَاءَ ذَاتَ ثَمَرٍ جَمِيلِ ٱلصُّورَةِ دَعَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱسْمَكِ. بِصَوْتِ ضَجَّةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ أَوْقَدَ نَارًا عَلَيْهَا فَٱنْكَسَرَتْ أَغْصَانُهَا. ١٦ 16
Yahweh called your name, “A green olive tree, beautiful with goodly fruit.” With the noise of a great roar he has kindled fire on it, and its branches are broken.
وَرَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ غَارِسُكِ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ عَلَيْكِ شَرًّا، مِنْ أَجْلِ شَرِّ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَيْتِ يَهُوذَا ٱلَّذِي صَنَعُوهُ ضِدَّ أَنْفُسِهِمْ لِيُغِيظُونِي بِتَبْخِيرِهِمْ لِلْبَعْلِ». ١٧ 17
For Yahweh of Armies, who planted you, has pronounced evil against you, because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done to themselves in provoking me to anger by offering incense to Baal.
وَٱلرَّبُّ عَرَّفَنِي فَعَرَفْتُ. حِينَئِذٍ أَرَيْتَنِي أَفْعَالَهُمْ. ١٨ 18
Yahweh gave me knowledge of it, and I knew it. Then you showed me their doings.
وَأَنَا كَخَرُوفٍ دَاجِنٍ يُسَاقُ إِلَى ٱلذَّبْحِ، وَلَمْ أَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُمْ فَكَّرُوا عَلَيَّ أَفْكَارًا، قَائِلِينَ: «لِنُهْلِكِ ٱلشَّجَرَةَ بِثَمَرِهَا، وَنَقْطَعْهُ مِنْ أَرْضِ ٱلْأَحْيَاءِ، فَلَا يُذْكَرَ بَعْدُ ٱسْمُهُ». ١٩ 19
But I was like a gentle lamb that is led to the slaughter. I did not know that they had devised plans against me, saying, “Let’s destroy the tree with its fruit, and let’s cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered.”
فَيَارَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، ٱلْقَاضِيَ ٱلْعَدْلَ، فَاحِصَ ٱلْكُلَى وَٱلْقَلْبِ، دَعْنِي أَرَى ٱنْتِقَامَكَ مِنْهُمْ لِأَنِّي لَكَ كَشَفْتُ دَعْوَايَ. ٢٠ 20
But, Yahweh of Armies, who judges righteously, who tests the heart and the mind, I will see your vengeance on them; for to you I have revealed my cause.
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ أَهْلِ عَنَاثُوثَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسَكَ قَائِلِينَ: لَا تَتَنَبَّأْ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ فَلَا تَمُوتَ بِيَدِنَا. ٢١ 21
“Therefore Yahweh says concerning the men of Anathoth, who seek your life, saying, ‘You shall not prophesy in Yahweh’s name, that you not die by our hand’—
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: «هَأَنَذَا أُعَاقِبُهُمْ. يَمُوتُ ٱلشُّبَّانُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَيَمُوتُ بَنُوهُمْ وَبَنَاتُهُمْ بِٱلْجُوعِ. ٢٢ 22
therefore Yahweh of Armies says, ‘Behold, I will punish them. The young men will die by the sword. Their sons and their daughters will die by famine.
وَلَا تَكُونُ لَهُمْ بَقِيَّةٌ، لِأَنِّي أَجْلِبُ شَرًّا عَلَى أَهْلِ عَنَاثُوثَ سَنَةَ عِقَابِهِمْ». ٢٣ 23
There will be no remnant to them, for I will bring evil on the men of Anathoth, even the year of their visitation.’”
