إِرْمِيَا 28

١ 1 وَحَدَثَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّنَةِ فِي ٱبْتِدَاءِ مُلْكِ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلرَّابِعَةِ، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْخَامِسِ، أَنَّ حَنَنِيَّا بْنَ عَزُورَ ٱلنَّبِيَّ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ جِبْعُونَ: كَلَّمَنِي فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَمَامَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَكُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ قَائِلًا:

And it came to pass in the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah, the son of Azur the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

٢ 2 «هَكَذَا تَكَلَّمَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: قَدْ كَسَرْتُ نِيرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ.

Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: “I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

٣ 3 فِي سَنَتَيْنِ مِنَ ٱلزَّمَانِ أَرُدُّ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ كُلَّ آنِيَةِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّتِي أَخَذَهَا نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ، وَذَهَبَ بِهَا إِلَى بَابِلَ.

Within two full years will I bring again to this place all the vessels of the house of Jehovah, which Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon took from this place, and carried to Babylon.

٤ 4 وَأَرُدُّ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ يَكُنْيَا بْنَ يَهُويَاقِيمَ مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا وَكُلَّ سَبْيِ يَهُوذَا ٱلَّذِينَ ذَهَبُوا إِلَى بَابِلَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِأَنِّي أَكْسِرُ نِيرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ».

And Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the captives of Judah that went to Babylon, will I bring again to this place, saith Jehovah; for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”

٥ 5 فَكَلَّمَ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ حَنَنِيَّا ٱلنَّبِيَّ أَمَامَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَأَمَامَ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلْوَاقِفِينَ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ،

Then Jeremiah the prophet spake to Hananiah the prophet, in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of Jehovah.

٦ 6 وَقَالَ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ: «آمِينَ. هَكَذَا لِيَصْنَعِ ٱلرَّبُّ. لِيُقِمِ ٱلرَّبُّ كَلَامَكَ ٱلَّذِي تَنَبَّأْتَ بِهِ، فَيَرُدَّ آنِيَةَ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَكُلَّ ٱلسَّبْيِ مِنْ بَابِلَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ.

And Jeremiah the prophet said, Amen! So may Jehovah do! May Jehovah fulfill thy words which thou hast prophesied, and bring back the vessels of the house of Jehovah, and all the captives from Babylon to this place!

٧ 7 وَلَكِنِ ٱسْمَعْ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَتَكَلَّمُ أَنَا بِهَا فِي أُذُنَيْكَ وَفِي آذَانِ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ.

Nevertheless, hear now this word, which I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people.

٨ 8 إِنَّ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا قَبْلِي وَقَبْلَكَ مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ وَتَنَبَّأُوا عَلَى أَرَاضٍ كَثِيرَةٍ وَعَلَى مَمَالِكَ عَظِيمَةٍ بِٱلْحَرْبِ وَٱلشَّرِّ وَٱلْوَبَإِ.

The prophets who have been before me and before thee from ancient times have also prophesied against many nations, and against great kingdoms, of war, of calamity, and of pestilence.

٩ 9 ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي تَنَبَّأَ بِٱلسَّلَامِ، فَعِنْدَ حُصُولِ كَلِمَةِ ٱلنَّبِيِّ عُرِفَ ذَلِكَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ أَرْسَلَهُ حَقًّا».

The prophet who prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall he be known as a prophet whom Jehovah hath truly sent.

١٠ 10 ثُمَّ أَخَذَ حَنَنِيَّا ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلنِّيرَ عَنْ عُنُقِ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ وَكَسَرَهُ.

Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and broke it.

١١ 11 وَتَكَلَّمَ حَنَنِيَّا أَمَامَ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ قَائِلًا: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَكَذَا أَكْسِرُ نِيرَ نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ فِي سَنَتَيْنِ مِنَ ٱلزَّمَانِ عَنْ عُنُقِ كُلِّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ». وَٱنْطَلَقَ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ فِي سَبِيلِهِ.

And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: In this manner will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, from the neck of all the nations, within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way.

١٢ 12 ثُمَّ صَارَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ، بَعْدَ مَا كَسَرَ حَنَنِيَّا ٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلنِّيرَ عَنْ عُنُقِ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ، قَائِلًا:

Then came the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying:

١٣ 13 «ٱذْهَبْ وَكَلِّمْ حَنَنِيَّا قَائِلًا: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: قَدْ كَسَرْتَ أَنْيَارَ ٱلْخَشَبِ وَعَمِلْتَ عِوَضًا عَنْهَا أَنْيَارًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ.

Go and tell Hananiah, saying: Thou hast broken a yoke of wood, but thou shalt make instead of it a yoke of iron.

١٤ 14 لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: قَدْ جَعَلْتُ نِيرًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ عَلَى عُنُقِ كُلِّ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ لِيَخْدِمُوا نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرَ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ، فَيَخْدِمُونَهُ وَقَدْ أَعْطَيْتُهُ أَيْضًا حَيَوَانَ ٱلْحَقْلِ».

For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: A yoke of iron do I put upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon; and they shall serve him. The beasts of the field also do I give to him.

١٥ 15 فَقَالَ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ لِحَنَنِيَّا ٱلنَّبِيِّ: «ٱسْمَعْ يَا حَنَنِيَّا. إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ لَمْ يُرْسِلْكَ، وَأَنْتَ قَدْ جَعَلْتَ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ يَتَّكِلُ عَلَى ٱلْكَذِبِ.

Jeremiah the prophet said also to Hananiah the prophet: Hear now, Hananiah! Jehovah hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie.

١٦ 16 لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا طَارِدُكَ عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. هَذِهِ ٱلسَّنَةَ تَمُوتُ، لِأَنَّكَ تَكَلَّمْتَ بِعِصْيَانٍ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ».

Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will cast thee off from the face of the earth. This year thou shalt die; for thou hast spoken rebellion against Jehovah.

١٧ 17 فَمَاتَ حَنَنِيَّا ٱلنَّبِيُّ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّنَةِ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلسَّابِعِ.

And Hananiah the prophet died in the same year, in the seventh month.
