إِرْمِيَا 5
| «طُوفُوا فِي شَوَارِعِ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَٱنْظُرُوا، وَٱعْرِفُوا وَفَتِّشُوا فِي سَاحَاتِهَا، هَلْ تَجِدُونَ إِنْسَانًا أَوْ يُوجَدُ عَامِلٌ بِٱلْعَدْلِ طَالِبُ ٱلْحَقِّ، فَأَصْفَحَ عَنْهَا؟ | ١ 1 |
"Run back and forth through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places of it, if you can find a man, if there are any who does justly, who seeks truth; and I will pardon her.
| وَإِنْ قَالُوا: حَيٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ. فَإِنَّهُمْ يَحْلِفُونَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ!» | ٢ 2 |
Though they say, 'As the LORD lives;' surely they swear falsely."
| يَارَبُّ، أَلَيْسَتْ عَيْنَاكَ عَلَى ٱلْحَقِّ؟ ضَرَبْتَهُمْ فَلَمْ يَتَوَجَّعُوا. أَفْنَيْتَهُمْ وَأَبَوْا قُبُولَ ٱلتَّأْدِيبِ. صَلَّبُوا وُجُوهَهُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ ٱلصَّخْرِ. أَبَوْا ٱلرُّجُوعَ. | ٣ 3 |
O LORD, do your eyes not look on truth? You have stricken them, but they were not grieved. You have consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction. They have made their faces harder than a rock. They have refused to return.
| أَمَّا أَنَا فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّمَا هُمْ مَسَاكِينُ. قَدْ جَهِلُوا لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا طَرِيقَ ٱلرَّبِّ، قَضَاءَ إِلَهِهِمْ. | ٤ 4 |
Then I said, "Surely these are poor. They are foolish; for they do not know the way of the LORD, nor the law of their God.
| أَنْطَلِقُ إِلَى ٱلْعُظَمَاءِ وَأُكَلِّمُهُمْ لِأَنَّهُمْ عَرَفُوا طَرِيقَ ٱلرَّبِّ، قَضَاءَ إِلَهِهِمْ. أَمَّا هُمْ فَقَدْ كَسَرُوا ٱلنِّيرَ جَمِيعًا وَقَطَعُوا ٱلرُّبُطَ. | ٥ 5 |
I will go to the great men, and will speak to them; for they know the way of the LORD, and the law of their God." But these with one accord have broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.
| مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ يَضْرِبُهُمُ ٱلْأَسَدُ مِنَ ٱلْوَعْرِ. ذِئْبُ ٱلْمَسَاءِ يُهْلِكُهُمْ. يَكْمُنُ ٱلنَّمِرُ حَوْلَ مُدُنِهِمْ. كُلُّ مَنْ خَرَجَ مِنْهَا يُفْتَرَسُ لِأَنَّ ذُنُوبَهُمْ كَثُرَتْ. تَعَاظَمَتْ مَعَاصِيهِمْ! | ٦ 6 |
Therefore a lion out of the forest shall kill them, a wolf of the evenings shall destroy them, a leopard shall watch against their cities; everyone who goes out there shall be torn in pieces; because their transgressions are many, and their backsliding is increased.
| «كَيْفَ أَصْفَحُ لَكِ عَنْ هَذِهِ؟ بَنُوكِ تَرَكُونِي وَحَلَفُوا بِمَا لَيْسَتْ آلِهَةً. وَلَمَّا أَشْبَعْتُهُمْ زَنَوْا، وَفِي بَيْتِ زَانِيَةٍ تَزَاحَمُوا. | ٧ 7 |
"How can I pardon you? Your children have forsaken me, and sworn by what are no gods. When I had fed them to the full, they committed adultery, and assembled themselves in troops at the prostitutes' houses.
| صَارُوا حُصُنًا مَعْلُوفَةً سَائِبَةً. صَهَلُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى ٱمْرَأَةِ صَاحِبِهِ. | ٨ 8 |
They were as fed horses roaming at large: everyone neighed after his neighbor's wife.
| أَمَا أُعَاقِبُ عَلَى هَذَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَوَ مَا تَنْتَقِمُ نَفْسِي مِنْ أُمَّةٍ كَهَذِهِ؟ | ٩ 9 |
Shouldn't I punish them for these things?" says the LORD; "and shouldn't my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
| «اِصْعَدُوا عَلَى أَسْوَارِهَا وَٱخْرِبُوا وَلَكِنْ لَا تُفْنُوهَا. اِنْزِعُوا أَفْنَانَهَا لِأَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٠ 10 |
"Go up on her walls, and destroy; but do not make a full end. Take away her branches; for they are not the LORD's.
| لِأَنَّهُ خِيَانَةً خَانَنِي بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَيْتُ يَهُوذَا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١١ 11 |
For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me," says the LORD.
| جَحَدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَالُوا: لَيْسَ هُوَ، وَلَا يَأْتِي عَلَيْنَا شَرٌّ، وَلَا نَرَى سَيْفًا وَلَا جُوعًا، | ١٢ 12 |
They have denied the LORD, and said, "It is not he; neither shall evil come on us; neither shall we see sword nor famine.
| وَٱلْأَنْبِيَاءُ يَصِيرُونَ رِيحًا، وَٱلْكَلِمَةُ لَيْسَتْ فِيهِمْ. هَكَذَا يُصْنَعُ بِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
The prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them. Thus shall it be done to them."
| لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ ٱلْجُنُودِ: مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكُمْ تَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِهَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَةِ، هَأَنَذَا جَاعِلٌ كَلَامِي فِي فَمِكَ نَارًا، وَهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ حَطَبًا، فَتَأْكُلُهُمْ. | ١٤ 14 |
Therefore thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, "Because you speak this word, look, I will make my words in your mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.
| هَأَنَذَا أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْكُمْ أُمَّةً مِنْ بُعْدٍ يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. أُمَّةً قَوِيَّةً. أُمَّةً مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ. أُمَّةً لَا تَعْرِفُ لِسَانَهَا وَلَا تَفْهَمُ مَا تَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Look, I will bring a nation on you from far, house of Israel," says the LORD. "It is a mighty nation. It is an ancient nation, a nation whose language you do not know, neither understand what they say.
| جُعْبَتُهُمْ كَقَبْرٍ مَفْتُوحٍ. كُلُّهُمْ جَبَابِرَةٌ. | ١٦ 16 |
Their quiver is an open tomb, they are all mighty men.
| فَيَأْكُلُونَ حَصَادَكَ وَخُبْزَكَ ٱلَّذِي يَأْكُلُهُ بَنُوكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ. يَأْكُلُونَ غَنَمَكَ وَبَقَرَكَ. يَأْكُلُونَ جَفْنَتَكَ وَتِينَكَ. يُهْلِكُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ مُدُنَكَ ٱلْحَصِينَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ مُتَّكِلٌ عَلَيْهَا. | ١٧ 17 |
They shall eat up your harvest, and your bread, which your sons and your daughters should eat. They shall eat up your flocks and your herds. They shall eat up your vines and your fig trees. They shall beat down your fortified cities, in which you trust, with the sword.
| وَأَيْضًا فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لَا أُفْنِيكُمْ. | ١٨ 18 |
"But even in those days," says the LORD, "I will not make a full end with you.
| «وَيَكُونُ حِينَ تَقُولُونَ: لِمَاذَا صَنَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا بِنَا كُلَّ هَذِهِ؟ تَقُولُ لَهُمْ: كَمَا أَنَّكُمْ تَرَكْتُمُونِي وَعَبَدْتُمْ آلِهَةً غَرِيبَةً فِي أَرْضِكُمْ، هَكَذَا تَعْبُدُونَ ٱلْغُرَبَاءَ فِي أَرْضٍ لَيْسَتْ لَكُمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
It will happen, when you say, 'Why has the LORD our God done all these things to us?' Then you shall say to them, 'Thus says the LORD, Just like you have forsaken me, and served foreign gods in your land, so you shall serve strangers in a land that is not yours.'
| أَخْبِرُوا بِهَذَا فِي بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ وَأَسْمِعُوا بِهِ فِي يَهُوذَا قَائِلِينَ: | ٢٠ 20 |
"Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,
| اِسْمَعْ هَذَا أَيُّهَا ٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلْجَاهِلُ وَٱلْعَدِيمُ ٱلْفَهْمِ، ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُمْ أَعْيُنٌ وَلَا يُبْصِرُونَ. لَهُمْ آذَانٌ وَلَا يَسْمَعُونَ. | ٢١ 21 |
'Hear now this, foolish people, and without understanding; who have eyes, and do not see; who have ears, and do not hear:
| أَإِيَّايَ لَا تَخْشَوْنَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَوَلَا تَرْتَعِدُونَ مِنْ وَجْهِي؟ أَنَا ٱلَّذِي وَضَعْتُ ٱلرَّمْلَ تُخُومًا لِلْبَحْرِ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً لَا يَتَعَدَّاهَا، فَتَتَلَاطَمُ وَلَا تَسْتَطِيعُ، وَتَعِجُّ أَمْوَاجُهُ وَلَا تَتَجَاوَزُهَا. | ٢٢ 22 |
Do you not fear me?' says the LORD 'Won't you tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand for the bound of the sea, by a perpetual decree, that it can't pass it? And though its waves toss themselves, yet they can't prevail; though they roar, yet they can't pass over it.'
| وَصَارَ لِهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ قَلْبٌ عَاصٍ وَمُتَمَرِّدٌ. عَصَوْا وَمَضَوْا. | ٢٣ 23 |
"But this people has a revolting and a rebellious heart; they have revolted and gone.
| وَلَمْ يَقُولُوا بِقُلُوبِهِمْ: لِنَخَفِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا ٱلَّذِي يُعْطِي ٱلْمَطَرَ ٱلْمُبَكِّرَ وَٱلْمُتَأَخِّرَ فِي وَقْتِهِ. يَحْفَظُ لَنَا أَسَابِيعَ ٱلْحَصَادِ ٱلْمَفْرُوضَةَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Neither do they say in their heart, 'Let us now fear the LORD our God, who gives rain, both the former and the latter, in its season; who preserves to us the appointed weeks of the harvest.'
| «آثَامُكُمْ عَكَسَتْ هَذِهِ، وَخَطَايَاكُمْ مَنَعَتِ ٱلْخَيْرَ عَنْكُمْ. | ٢٥ 25 |
"Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withheld good from you.
| لِأَنَّهُ وُجِدَ فِي شَعْبِي أَشْرَارٌ يَرْصُدُونَ كَمُنْحَنٍ مِنَ ٱلْقَانِصِينَ، يَنْصِبُونَ أَشْرَاكًا يُمْسِكُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
For among my people are found wicked men. They watch, as fowlers lie in wait. They set a trap. They catch men.
| مِثْلَ قَفَصٍ مَلْآنٍ طُيُورًا هَكَذَا بُيُوتُهُمْ مَلْآنَةٌ مَكْرًا. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ عَظُمُوا وَٱسْتَغْنَوْا. | ٢٧ 27 |
As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit. Therefore they have become great, and grew rich.
| سَمِنُوا. لَمَعُوا. أَيْضًا تَجَاوَزُوا فِي أُمُورِ ٱلشَّرِّ. لَمْ يَقْضُوا فِي ٱلدَّعْوَى، دَعْوَى ٱلْيَتِيمِ. وَقَدْ نَجَحُوا. وَبِحَقِّ ٱلْمَسَاكِينِ لَمْ يَقْضُوا. | ٢٨ 28 |
They have grown fat. They shine; yes, they excel in deeds of wickedness. They do not plead the cause, the cause of the fatherless, that they may prosper; and they do not judge the right of the needy.
| أَفَلِأَجْلِ هَذِهِ لَا أُعَاقِبُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَوَلَا تَنْتَقِمُ نَفْسِي مِنْ أُمَّةٍ كَهَذِهِ؟ | ٢٩ 29 |
"Shall I not punish for these things?" says the LORD. "Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
| «صَارَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ دَهَشٌ وَقَشْعَرِيرَةٌ. | ٣٠ 30 |
"An astonishing and horrible thing has happened in the land.
| اَلْأَنْبِيَاءُ يَتَنَبَّأُونَ بِٱلْكَذِبِ، وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ تَحْكُمُ عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ، وَشَعْبِي هَكَذَا أَحَبَّ. وَمَاذَا تَعْمَلُونَ فِي آخِرَتِهَا؟ | ٣١ 31 |
The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule by their own authority; and my people love to have it so. What will you do in the end of it?
