< إِرْمِيَا 31 >

«فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلزَّمَانِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَكُونُ إِلَهًا لِكُلِّ عَشَائِرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَهُمْ يَكُونُونَ لِي شَعْبًا. ١ 1
Thus has the Lord said concerning MOAB, Woe to Nabau! for it has perished: Cariathaim is taken: Amath and Agath are put to shame.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: قَدْ وَجَدَ نِعْمَةً فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، ٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلْبَاقِي عَنِ ٱلسَّيْفِ، إِسْرَائِيلُ حِينَ سِرْتُ لِأُرِيحَهُ». ٢ 2
There is no longer any healing for Moab, [nor] glorying in Esebon: he has devised evils against her: we have cut her off from [being] a nation, and she shall be completely still: after thee shall go a sword;
تَرَاءَى لِي ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ: «وَمَحَبَّةً أَبَدِيَّةً أَحْبَبْتُكِ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَدَمْتُ لَكِ ٱلرَّحْمَةَ. ٣ 3
for [there is] a voice of [men] crying out of Oronaim, destruction and great ruin.
سَأَبْنِيكِ بَعْدُ، فَتُبْنَيْنَ يَا عَذْرَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. تَتَزَيَّنِينَ بَعْدُ بِدُفُوفِكِ، وَتَخْرُجِينَ فِي رَقْصِ ٱللَّاعِبِينَ. ٤ 4
Moab is ruined, proclaim [it] to Zogora:
تَغْرِسِينَ بَعْدُ كُرُومًا فِي جِبَالِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ. يَغْرِسُ ٱلْغَارِسُونَ وَيَبْتَكِرُونَ. ٥ 5
for Aloth is filled with weeping: one shall go up weeping by the way of Oronaim; ye have heard a cry of destruction.
لِأَنَّهُ يَكُونُ يَوْمٌ يُنَادِي فِيهِ ٱلنَّوَاطِيرُ فِي جِبَالِ أَفْرَايِمَ: قُومُوا فَنَصْعَدَ إِلَى صِهْيَوْنَ، إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا. ٦ 6
Flee ye, and save your lives, and ye shall be as a wild ass in the desert.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: رَنِّمُوا لِيَعْقُوبَ فَرَحًا، وَٱهْتِفُوا بِرَأْسِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. سَمِّعُوا، سَبِّحُوا، وَقُولُوا: خَلِّصْ يَارَبُّ شَعْبَكَ بَقِيَّةَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٧ 7
Since thou hast trusted in thy strong-hold, therefore thou shalt be taken: and Chamos shall go forth into captivity, and his priests, and his princes together.
هَأَنَذَا آتِي بِهِمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، وَأَجْمَعُهُمْ مِنْ أَطْرَافِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. بَيْنَهُمُ ٱلْأَعْمَى وَٱلْأَعْرَجُ، ٱلْحُبْلَى وَٱلْمَاخِضُ مَعًا. جَمْعٌ عَظِيمٌ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى هُنَا. ٨ 8
And destruction shall come upon every city, it shall by no means escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain country shall be completely destroyed, as the Lord has said.
بِٱلْبُكَاءِ يَأْتُونَ، وَبِٱلتَّضَرُّعَاتِ أَقُودُهُمْ. أُسَيِّرُهُمْ إِلَى أَنْهَارِ مَاءٍ فِي طَرِيقٍ مُسْتَقِيمَةٍ لَا يَعْثُرُونَ فِيهَا. لِأَنِّي صِرْتُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ أَبًا، وَأَفْرَايِمُ هُوَ بِكْرِي. ٩ 9
Set marks upon Moab, for she shall be touched with a plague-spot, and all her cities shall become desolate; whence [shall there be] an inhabitant for her?
«اِسْمَعُوا كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ أَيُّهَا ٱلْأُمَمُ، وَأَخْبِرُوا فِي ٱلْجَزَائِرِ ٱلْبَعِيدَةِ، وَقُولُوا: مُبَدِّدُ إِسْرَائِيلَ يَجْمَعُهُ وَيَحْرُسُهُ كَرَاعٍ قَطِيعَهُ. ١٠ 10
Cursed is the man that does the works of the Lord carelessly, keeping back his sword from blood.
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ فَدَى يَعْقُوبَ وَفَكَّهُ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلَّذِي هُوَ أَقْوَى مِنْهُ. ١١ 11
Moab has been at ease from a child, and trusted in his glory; he has not poured out [his liquor] from vessel to vessel, and has not gone into banishment, therefore his taste remained in him, and his smell departed not.
فَيَأْتُونَ وَيُرَنِّمُونَ فِي مُرْتَفَعِ صِهْيَوْنَ، وَيَجْرُونَ إِلَى جُودِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى ٱلْحِنْطَةِ وَعَلَى ٱلْخَمْرِ وَعَلَى ٱلزَّيْتِ وَعَلَى أَبْنَاءِ ٱلْغَنَمِ وَٱلْبَقَرِ. وَتَكُونُ نَفْسُهُمْ كَجَنَّةٍ رَيَّا، وَلَا يَعُودُونَ يَذُوبُونَ بَعْدُ. ١٢ 12
Therefore, behold, his days come, saith the Lord, when I shall send upon him bad leaders, and they shall lead him astray, and they shall utterly break in pieces his possessions, and shall cut his horns asunder.
حِينَئِذٍ تَفْرَحُ ٱلْعَذْرَاءُ بِٱلرَّقْصِ، وَٱلشُّبَّانُ وَٱلشُّيُوخُ مَعًا. وَأُحَوِّلُ نَوْحَهُمْ إِلَى طَرَبٍ، وَأُعَزِّيهِمْ وَأُفَرِّحُهُمْ مِنْ حُزْنِهِمْ. ١٣ 13
And Moab shall be ashamed of Chamos, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Baethel their hope, having trusted in them.
وَأُرْوِي نَفْسَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ مِنَ ٱلدَّسَمِ، وَيَشْبَعُ شَعْبِي مِنْ جُودِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ١٤ 14
How will ye say, We are strong, and men strong for war?
«هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: صَوْتٌ سُمِعَ فِي ٱلرَّامَةِ، نَوْحٌ، بُكَاءٌ مُرٌّ. رَاحِيلُ تَبْكِي عَلَى أَوْلَادِهَا، وَتَأْبَى أَنْ تَتَعَزَّى عَنْ أَوْلَادِهَا لِأَنَّهُمْ لَيْسُوا بِمَوْجُودِينَ. ١٥ 15
Moab is ruined, [even] his city, and his choice young men have gone down to slaughter.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱمْنَعِي صَوْتَكِ عَنِ ٱلْبُكَاءِ، وَعَيْنَيْكِ عَنِ ٱلدُّمُوعِ، لِأَنَّهُ يُوجَدُ جَزَاءٌ لِعَمَلِكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. فَيَرْجِعُونَ مِنْ أَرْضِ ٱلْعَدُوِّ. ١٦ 16
The day of Moab is near at hand, and his iniquity moves swiftly [to vengeance].
وَيُوجَدُ رَجَاءٌ لِآخِرَتِكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. فَيَرْجِعُ ٱلْأَبْنَاءُ إِلَى تُخُمِهِمْ. ١٧ 17
Shake [the head] at him, all ye that are round about him; all [of you] utter his name; say ye, How is the glorious staff broken to pieces, the rod of magnificence!
«سَمْعًا سَمِعْتُ أَفْرَايِمَ يَنْتَحِبُ: أَدَّبْتَنِي فَتَأَدَّبْتُ كَعِجْلٍ غَيْرِ مَرُوضٍ. تَوِّبْنِي فَأَتُوبَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهِي. ١٨ 18
Come down from [thy] glory, and sit down in a damp place: Daebon shall be broken, because Moab is destroyed: there has gone up against thee one to ravage thy strong-hold.
لِأَنِّي بَعْدَ رُجُوعِي نَدِمْتُ، وَبَعْدَ تَعَلُّمِي صَفَقْتُ عَلَى فَخْذِي. خَزِيتُ وَخَجِلْتُ لِأَنِّي قَدْ حَمَلْتُ عَارَ صِبَايَ. ١٩ 19
Stand by the way, and look, thou that dwellest in Arer; and ask him that is fleeing, and him that escapes, and say, What has happened?
هَلْ أَفْرَايِمُ ٱبْنٌ عَزِيزٌ لَدَيَّ، أَوْ وَلَدٌ مُسِرٌّ؟ لِأَنِّي كُلَّمَا تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهِ أَذْكُرُهُ بَعْدُ ذِكْرًا. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ حَنَّتْ أَحْشَائِي إِلَيْهِ. رَحْمَةً أَرْحَمُهُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٠ 20
Moab is put to shame, because he is broken: howl and cry; proclaim in Arnon, that Moab has perished.
«اِنْصِبِي لِنَفْسِكِ صُوًى. ٱجْعَلِي لِنَفْسِكِ أَنْصَابًا. ٱجْعَلِي قَلْبَكِ نَحْوَ ٱلسِّكَّةِ، ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّتِي ذَهَبْتِ فِيهَا. ٱرْجِعِي يَا عَذْرَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٱرْجِعِي إِلَى مُدُنِكِ هَذِهِ. ٢١ 21
And judgment is coming against the land of Misor, upon Chelon, and Rephas, and Mophas,
حَتَّى مَتَى تَطُوفِينَ أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْبِنْتُ ٱلْمُرْتَدَّةُ؟ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ خَلَقَ شَيْئًا حَدِيثًا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. أُنْثَى تُحِيطُ بِرَجُلٍ. ٢٢ 22
and upon Daebon, and upon Nabau, and upon the house of Daethlathaim,
هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: سَيَقُولُونَ بَعْدُ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَةَ فِي أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا وَفِي مُدُنِهَا، عِنْدَمَا أَرُدُّ سَبْيَهُمْ: يُبَارِكُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ يَا مَسْكِنَ ٱلْبِرِّ، يَا أَيُّهَا ٱلْجَبَلُ ٱلْمُقَدَّسُ. ٢٣ 23
and upon Cariathaim, and upon the house of Gaemol, and upon the house of Maon,
فَيَسْكُنُ فِيهِ يَهُوذَا وَكُلُّ مُدُنِهِ مَعًا، ٱلْفَّلَاحُونَ وَٱلَّذِينَ يُسَرِّحُونَ ٱلْقُطْعَانَ. ٢٤ 24
and upon Carioth, and upon Bosor, and upon all the cities of Moab, far and near.
لِأَنِّي أَرْوَيْتُ ٱلنَّفْسَ ٱلْمُعْيِيَةَ، وَمَلَأْتُ كُلَّ نَفْسٍ ذَائِبَةٍ. ٢٥ 25
The horn of Moab is broken, and his arm is crushed.
عَلَى ذَلِكَ ٱسْتَيْقَظْتُ وَنَظَرْتُ وَلَذَّ لِي نَوْمِي. ٢٦ 26
Make ye him drunk; for he has magnified himself against the Lord: and Moab shall clap with his hand, and shall be also himself a laughing-stock.
«هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأَزْرَعُ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَيْتَ يَهُوذَا بِزَرْعِ إِنْسَانٍ وَزَرْعِ حَيَوَانٍ. ٢٧ 27
For surely Israel was to thee a laughing-stock, and was found among thy thefts, because thou didst fight against him.
وَيَكُونُ كَمَا سَهِرْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ لِلِٱقْتِلَاعِ وَٱلْهَدْمِ وَٱلْقَرْضِ وَٱلْإِهْلَاكِ وَٱلْأَذَى، كَذَلِكَ أَسْهَرُ عَلَيْهِمْ لِلْبِنَاءِ وَٱلْغَرْسِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٨ 28
The inhabitants of Moab have left the cities, and dwelt in rocks; they have become as doves nestling in rocks, at the mouth of a cave.
فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لَا يَقُولُونَ بَعْدُ: ٱلْآبَاءُ أَكَلُوا حِصْرِمًا، وَأَسْنَانُ ٱلْأَبْنَاءِ ضَرِسَتْ. ٢٩ 29
And I have heard of the pride of Moab, he has greatly heightened his pride and his haughtiness, and his heart has been lifted up.
بَلْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ يَمُوتُ بِذَنْبِهِ. كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ يَأْكُلُ ٱلْحِصْرِمَ تَضْرَسُ أَسْنَانُهُ. ٣٠ 30
But I know his works: is it not enough for him? has he not done thus?
«هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأَقْطَعُ مَعَ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمَعَ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا عَهْدًا جَدِيدًا. ٣١ 31
Therefore howl ye for Moab on all sides; cry out against the shorn men [in] a gloomy place. I will weep for thee,
لَيْسَ كَٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعْتُهُ مَعَ آبَائِهِمْ يَوْمَ أَمْسَكْتُهُمْ بِيَدِهِمْ لِأُخْرِجَهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، حِينَ نَقَضُوا عَهْدِي فَرَفَضْتُهُمْ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٣٢ 32
O vine of Aserema, as with the weeping of Jazer: thy branches are gone over the sea, they reached the cities of Jazer: destruction has come upon thy fruits, [and] upon thy grape-gatherers.
بَلْ هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْعَهْدُ ٱلَّذِي أَقْطَعُهُ مَعَ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَعْدَ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَجْعَلُ شَرِيعَتِي فِي دَاخِلِهِمْ وَأَكْتُبُهَا عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ، وَأَكُونُ لَهُمْ إِلَهًا وَهُمْ يَكُونُونَ لِي شَعْبًا. ٣٣ 33
Joy and gladness have been utterly swept off the land of Moab: and [though] there was wine in thy presses, in the morning they trod it not, neither in the evening did they raise the cry of joy.
وَلَا يُعَلِّمُونَ بَعْدُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ صَاحِبَهُ، وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَخَاهُ، قَائِلِينَ: ٱعْرِفُوا ٱلرَّبَّ، لِأَنَّهُمْ كُلَّهُمْ سَيَعْرِفُونَنِي مِنْ صَغِيرِهِمْ إِلَى كَبِيرِهِمْ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِأَنِّي أَصْفَحُ عَنْ إِثْمِهِمْ، وَلَا أَذْكُرُ خَطِيَّتَهُمْ بَعْدُ. ٣٤ 34
From the cry of Esebon even to Aetam their cities uttered their voice, from Zogor to Oronaim, and their tidings [as] a heifer of three years old, for the water also of Nebrin shall be dried up.
«هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْجَاعِلُ ٱلشَّمْسَ لِلْإِضَاءَةِ نَهَارًا، وَفَرَائِضَ ٱلْقَمَرِ وَٱلنُّجُومِ لِلْإِضَاءَةِ لَيْلًا، ٱلزَّاجِرُ ٱلْبَحْرَ حِينَ تَعِجُّ أَمْوَاجُهُ، رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ ٱسْمُهُ: ٣٥ 35
And I will destroy Moab, saith the Lord, as he comes up to the altar, and burns incense to his gods.
إِنْ كَانَتْ هَذِهِ ٱلْفَرَائِضُ تَزُولُ مِنْ أَمَامِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، فَإِنَّ نَسْلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَيْضًا يَكُفُّ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ أُمَّةً أَمَامِي كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. ٣٦ 36
Therefore the heart of Moab shall sound as pipes, my heart shall sound as a pipe for the shorn men; forasmuch as what [every] man has gained has perished from him.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: إِنْ كَانَتِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ تُقَاسُ مِنْ فَوْقُ وَتُفْحَصُ أَسَاسَاتُ ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ أَسْفَلُ، فَإِنِّي أَنَا أَيْضًا أَرْفُضُ كُلَّ نَسْلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَجْلِ كُلِّ مَا عَمِلُوا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٣٧ 37
They shall all have their heads shaved in every place, and every beard shall be shaved; and all hands shall beat [the breasts], and on all loins shall be sackcloth.
«هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَتُبْنَى ٱلْمَدِينَةُ لِلرَّبِّ مِنْ بُرْجِ حَنَنْئِيلَ إِلَى بَابِ ٱلزَّاوِيَةِ، ٣٨ 38
And on all the housetops of Moab, and in his streets [shall be mourning]: for I have broken [him], saith the Lord, as a vessel, which is useless.
وَيَخْرُجُ بَعْدُ خَيْطُ ٱلْقِيَاسِ مُقَابِلَهُ عَلَى أَكَمَةِ جَارِبَ، وَيَسْتَدِيرُ إِلَى جَوْعَةَ، ٣٩ 39
How has he changed! how has Moab turned [his] back! Moab is put to shame, and become a laughing-stock, and an object of anger to all that are round about him.
وَيَكُونُ كُلُّ وَادِي ٱلْجُثَثِ وَٱلرَّمَادِ، وَكُلُّ ٱلْحُقُولِ إِلَى وَادِي قَدْرُونَ إِلَى زَاوِيَةِ بَابِ ٱلْخَيْلِ شَرْقًا، قُدْسًا لِلرَّبِّ. لَا تُقْلَعُ وَلَا تُهْدَمُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». ٤٠ 40
For thus said the Lord;
٤١ 41
Carioth is taken, and the strong-holds have been taken together.
٤٢ 42
And Moab shall perish from being a multitude, because he has magnified himself against the Lord.
٤٣ 43
A snare, and fear, and the pit, are upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab.
٤٤ 44
He that flees from the terror shall fall into the pit, and he that comes up out of the pit shall even be taken in the snare: for I will bring these things upon Moab in the year of their visitation.
