< إِرْمِيَا 34 >

اَلْكَلِمَةُ ٱلَّتِي صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ حِينَ كَانَ نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ وَكُلُّ جَيْشِهِ وَكُلُّ مَمَالِكِ أَرَاضِي سُلْطَانِ يَدِهِ وَكُلُّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، يُحَارِبُونَ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَكُلُّ مُدُنِهَا قَائِلَةً: ١ 1
The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all of his army, together with all the kingdoms of the earth, the domains under his power, and all their people were waging war against Jerusalem and all of her cities, saying:
«هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: ٱذْهَبْ وَكَلِّمْ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا وَقُلْ لَهُ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أَدْفَعُ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ لِيَدِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ فَيُحْرِقُهَا بِٱلنَّارِ. ٢ 2
“Yahweh, God of Israel, says this: Go and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah and say to him, 'Yahweh says this: Look, I am about to give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon. He will burn it.
وَأَنْتَ لَا تُفْلِتُ مِنْ يَدِهِ، بَلْ تُمْسَكُ إِمْسَاكًا وَتُدْفَعُ لِيَدِهِ، وَتَرَى عَيْنَاكَ عَيْنَيْ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، وَتُكَلِّمُهُ فَمًا لِفَمٍ وَتَذْهَبُ إِلَى بَابِلَ. ٣ 3
You will not escape from his hand, for you will certainly be seized and given into his hand. Your eyes will look at the eyes of the king of Babylon; he will speak directly to you as you go to Babylon.'
وَلَكِنِ ٱسْمَعْ كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَا صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا. هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ جِهَتِكَ: لَا تَمُوتُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. ٤ 4
Listen to the word of Yahweh, Zedekiah king of Judah! Yahweh says this concerning you, 'You will not die by the sword.
بِسَلَامٍ تَمُوتُ، وَبِإِحْرَاقِ آبَائِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا قَبْلَكَ، هَكَذَا يُحْرِقُونَ لَكَ وَيَنْدُبُونَكَ قَائِلِينَ: آهِ، يَا سَيِّدُ. لِأَنِّي أَنَا تَكَلَّمْتُ بِٱلْكَلِمَةِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ». ٥ 5
You will die in peace. As in the funeral burning of your ancestors, the kings who were before you, they will burn your body. They will say, “Woe, master!” They will lament for you. Now I have spoken—this is Yahweh's declaration.'”
فَكَلَّمَ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا بِكُلِّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، ٦ 6
So Jeremiah the prophet proclaimed to Zedekiah king of Judah all these words in Jerusalem.
إِذْ كَانَ جَيْشُ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ يُحَارِبُ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَكُلَّ مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا ٱلْبَاقِيَةِ: لَخِيشَ وَعَزِيقَةَ. لِأَنَّ هَاتَيْنِ بَقِيَتَا فِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا مَدِينَتَيْنِ حَصِينَتَيْنِ. ٧ 7
The army of the king of Babylon made war against Jerusalem and all the remaining cities of Judah: Lachish and Azekah. These cities of Judah remained as fortified cities.
ٱلْكَلِمَةُ ٱلَّتِي صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، بَعْدَ قَطْعِ ٱلْمَلِكِ صِدْقِيَّا عَهْدًا مَعَ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيُنَادُوا بِٱلْعِتْقِ، ٨ 8
The word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh after King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people in Jerusalem, to proclaim freedom to them,
أَنْ يُطْلِقَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَبْدَهُ وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَمَتَهُ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّ وَٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّةَ حُرَّيْنِ، حَتَّى لَا يَسْتَعْبِدَهُمَا، أَيْ أَخَوَيْهِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّيْنِ،أَحَدٌ. ٩ 9
that each man must free his Hebrew slaves, both male and female, so one was to make a slave of a Jew, who was his brother.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ كُلُّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ دَخَلُوا فِي ٱلْعَهْدِ أَنْ يُطْلِقُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَبْدَهُ، وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَمَتَهُ حُرَّيْنِ وَلَا يَسْتَعْبِدُوهُمَا بَعْدُ، أَطَاعُوا وَأَطْلَقُوا. ١٠ 10
So all the leaders and people entered into the covenant that each person would free his male and female slaves so that they would not be enslaved any longer. They obeyed and set them free.
وَلَكِنَّهُمْ عَادُوا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَأَرْجَعُوا ٱلْعَبِيدَ وَٱلْإِمَاءَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَطْلَقُوهُمْ أَحْرَارًا، وَأَخْضَعُوهُمْ عَبِيدًا وَإِمَاءً. ١١ 11
But after this they changed their minds. They brought back the slaves whom they had freed. They forced them to become slaves again.
فَصَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلَةً: ١٢ 12
So the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, saying,
«هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: أَنَا قَطَعْتُ عَهْدًا مَعَ آبَائِكُمْ يَوْمَ أَخْرَجْتُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعَبِيدِ قَائِلًا: ١٣ 13
“Yahweh, God of Israel, says this, 'I myself made a covenant with your ancestors on the day that I brought them out from the land of Egypt, out from the house of slavery. That was when I said,
فِي نِهَايَةِ سَبْعِ سِنِينَ تُطْلِقُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَخَاهُ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّ ٱلَّذِي بِيعَ لَكَ وَخَدَمَكَ سِتَّ سِنِينَ، فَتُطْلِقُهُ حُرًّا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ. وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ آبَاؤُكُمْ لِي وَلَا أَمَالُوا أُذُنَهُمْ. ١٤ 14
“At the end of every seven years, each man must send away his brother, his fellow Hebrew who had sold himself to you and served you for six years. Send him away in freedom.” But your ancestors did not listen to me or incline their ears to me.
وَقَدْ رَجَعْتُمْ أَنْتُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ وَفَعَلْتُمْ مَا هُوَ مُسْتَقِيمٌ فِي عَيْنَيَّ، مُنَادِينَ بِٱلْعِتْقِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ، وَقَطَعْتُمْ عَهْدًا أَمَامِي فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلَّذِي دُعِيَ بِٱسْمِي. ١٥ 15
Now you yourselves repented and began to do what is right in my eyes. You proclaimed freedom, each man to his neighbor, and you made a covenant before me in the house that is called by my name.
ثُمَّ عُدْتُمْ وَدَنَّسْتُمُ ٱسْمِي وَأَرْجَعْتُمْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَبْدَهُ، وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَمَتَهُ ٱلَّذِينَ أَطْلَقْتُمُوهُمْ أَحْرَارًا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ، وَأَخْضَعْتُمُوهُمْ لِيَكُونُوا لَكُمْ عَبِيدًا وَإِمَاءً. ١٦ 16
But then you turned and polluted my name; you caused each man to bring back his male and female slaves, the ones whom you had sent out to go where they wished. You forced them to become your slaves again.'
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَنْتُمْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِي لِتُنَادُوا بِٱلْعِتْقِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَخِيهِ، وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ. هَأَنَذَا أُنَادِي لَكُمْ بِٱلْعِتْقِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِلسَّيْفِ وَٱلْوَبَإِ وَٱلْجُوعِ، وَأَجْعَلُكُمْ قَلَقًا لِكُلِّ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ١٧ 17
Therefore Yahweh says this, 'You yourselves have not listened to me. You should have proclaimed freedom, every one of you, to your brothers and fellow Israelites. So look! I am about to proclaim freedom to you—this is Yahweh's declaration—freedom for the sword, the plague, and famine, for I am going to make you a horrible thing in the sight of every kingdom on earth.
وَأَدْفَعُ ٱلنَّاسَ ٱلَّذِينَ تَعَدَّوْا عَهْدِي، ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يُقِيمُوا كَلَامَ ٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعُوهُ أَمَامِي. ٱلْعِجْلَ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعُوهُ إِلَى ٱثْنَيْنِ، وَجَازُوا بَيْنَ قِطْعَتَيْهِ. ١٨ 18
Then I will deal with the people who have broken my covenant, who did not keep the words of the covenant that they established before me when they cut a bull in two and walked between its parts,
رُؤَسَاءَ يَهُوذَا وَرُؤَسَاءَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، ٱلْخِصْيَانَ وَٱلْكَهَنَةَ وَكُلَّ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَازُوا بَيْنَ قِطْعَتَيِ ٱلْعِجْلِ، ١٩ 19
and then the leaders of Judah and Jerusalem, the eunuchs and the priests, and all the people of the land walked between the parts of the bull.
أَدْفَعُهُمْ لِيَدِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ وَلِيَدِ طَالِبِي نُفُوسِهِمْ، فَتَكُونُ جُثَثُهُمْ أُكْلًا لِطُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَوُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٢٠ 20
I will give them into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who are seeking their lives. Their bodies will be food for the birds of the skies and the beasts on the earth.
وَأَدْفَعُ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا وَرُؤَسَاءَهُ لِيَدِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ، وَلِيَدِ طَالِبِي نُفُوسِهِمْ، وَلِيَدِ جَيْشِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ ٱلَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا عَنْكُمْ. ٢١ 21
So I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his leaders into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who are seeking their life, and into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon that has risen up against you.
هَأَنَذَا آمُرُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأَرُدُّهُمْ إِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ فَيُحَارِبُونَهَا وَيَأْخُذُونَهَا وَيُحْرِقُونَهَا بِٱلنَّارِ، وَأَجْعَلُ مُدُنَ يَهُوذَا خَرِبَةً بِلَا سَاكِنٍ». ٢٢ 22
Look, I am about to give a command—this is Yahweh's declaration—and will bring them back to this city to wage war against it and take it, and to burn it. For I will turn the cities of Judah into ruined places in which there will be no inhabitants.'”
