< يَشُوع 22 >
حِينَئِذٍ دَعَا يَشُوعُ ٱلرَّأُوبَيْنِيِّينَ وَٱلْجَادِيِّينَ وَنِصْفَ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى، | ١ 1 |
Then Joshua called together the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse,
وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنَّكُمْ قَدْ حَفِظْتُمْ كُلَّ مَا أَمَرَكُمْ بِهِ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَسَمِعْتُمْ صَوْتِي فِي كُلِّ مَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ، | ٢ 2 |
and said to them, You have heard all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, and you have listened to my voice in all that he commanded you.
وَلَمْ تَتْرُكُوا إِخْوَتَكُمْ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَيَّامَ ٱلْكَثِيرَةَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَحَفِظْتُمْ مَا يُحْفَظُ، وَصِيَّةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ. | ٣ 3 |
You have not deserted your brethren these many days: until this day you have kept the commandment of the Lord your God.
وَٱلْآنَ قَدْ أَرَاحَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ إِخْوَتَكُمْ كَمَا قَالَ لَهُمْ. فَٱنْصَرِفُوا ٱلْآنَ وَٱذْهَبُوا إِلَى خِيَامِكُمْ فِي أَرْضِ مُلْكِكُمُ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكُمْ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ، فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ٤ 4 |
And now the Lord our God has given our brethren rest, as he told them: now then return and depart to your homes, and to the land of your possession, which Moses gave you on the other side Jordan.
وَإِنَّمَا ٱحْرِصُوا جِدًّا أَنْ تَعْمَلُوا ٱلْوَصِيَّةَ وَٱلشَّرِيعَةَ ٱلَّتِي أَمَرَكُمْ بِهَا مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ: أَنْ تُحِبُّوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ، وَتَسِيرُوا فِي كُلِّ طُرُقِهِ، وَتَحْفَظُوا وَصَايَاهُ، وَتَلْصَقُوا بِهِ وَتَعْبُدُوهُ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِكُمْ وَبِكُلِّ نَفْسِكُمْ». | ٥ 5 |
But take great heed to do the commands and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you to do; to love the Lord our God, to walk in all his ways, to keep his commands, and to cleave to him, and serve him with all your mind, and with all your soul.
ثُمَّ بَارَكَهُمْ يَشُوعُ وَصَرَفَهُمْ، فَذَهَبُوا إِلَى خِيَامِهِمْ. | ٦ 6 |
And Joshua blessed them, and dismissed them; and they went to their homes.
وَلِنِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى أَعْطَى مُوسَى فِي بَاشَانَ، وَأَمَّا نِصْفُهُ ٱلْآخَرُ فَأَعْطَاهُمْ يَشُوعُ مَعَ إِخْوَتِهِمْ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ غَرْبًا. وَعِنْدَمَا صَرَفَهُمْ يَشُوعُ أَيْضًا إِلَى خِيَامِهِمْ بَارَكَهُمْ | ٧ 7 |
And to [one] half the tribe of Manasse Moses gave a portion in the land of Basan, and to [the other] half Joshua gave a portion with his brethren on the other side of Jordan westward: and when Joshua sent them away to their homes, then he blessed them.
وَكَلَّمَهُمْ قَائِلًا: «بِمَالٍ كَثِيرٍ ٱرْجِعُوا إِلَى خِيَامِكُمْ، وَبِمَوَاشٍ كَثِيرَةٍ جِدًّا، بِفِضَّةٍ وَذَهَبٍ وَنُحَاسٍ وَحَدِيدٍ وَمَلَابِسَ كَثِيرَةٍ جِدًّا. اِقْسِمُوا غَنِيمَةَ أَعْدَائِكُمْ مَعَ إِخْوَتِكُمْ». | ٨ 8 |
And they departed with much wealth to their houses, and they divided the spoil of their enemies with their brethren; very much cattle, and silver, and gold, and iron, and much raiment.
فَرَجَعَ بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنُو جَادَ وَنِصْفُ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى، وَذَهَبُوا مِنْ عِنْدِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ شِيلُوهَ ٱلَّتِي فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ لِكَيْ يَسِيرُوا إِلَى أَرْضِ جِلْعَادَ، أَرْضِ مُلْكِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي تَمَلَّكُوا بِهَا حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى يَدِ مُوسَى. | ٩ 9 |
So the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse, departed from the children of Israel in Selo in the land of Chanaan, to go away into Galaad, into the land of their possession, which they inherited by the command of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.
وَجَاءُوا إِلَى دَائِرَةِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ ٱلَّتِي فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. وَبَنَى بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنُو جَادَ وَنِصْفُ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحًا عَلَى ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، مَذْبَحًا عَظِيمَ ٱلْمَنْظَرِ. | ١٠ 10 |
And they came to Galaad of Jordan, which is in the land of Chanaan: and the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse built there an altar by Jordan, a great altar to look at.
فَسَمِعَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ قَوْلًا: «هُوَذَا قَدْ بَنَى بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنُو جَادَ وَنِصْفُ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى مَذْبَحًا فِي وَجْهِ أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ، فِي دَائِرَةِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ مُقَابِلَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ». | ١١ 11 |
And the children of Israel heard say, Behold, the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse have built an altar at the borders of the land of Chanaan at Galaad of Jordan, on the opposite side to the children of Israel.
وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱجْتَمَعَتْ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي شِيلُوهَ لِكَيْ يَصْعَدُوا إِلَيْهِمْ لِلْحَرْبِ. | ١٢ 12 |
And all the children of Israel gathered together to Selo, so as to go up and fight against them.
فَأَرْسَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى بَنِي رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنِي جَادَ وَنِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى إِلَى أَرْضِ جِلْعَادَ، فِينَحَاسَ بْنَ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ | ١٣ 13 |
And the children of Israel sent to the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and to the sons of the half tribe of Manasse into the land of Galaad, both Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest,
وَعَشْرَةَ رُؤَسَاءَ مَعَهُ، رَئِيسًا وَاحِدًا مِنْ كُلِّ بَيْتِ أَبٍ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ رَئِيسُ بَيْتِ آبَائِهِمْ فِي أُلُوفِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٤ 14 |
and ten of the chiefs with him; [there was] one chief of every household out of all the tribes of Israel; (the heads of families are the captains of thousands in Israel.)
فَجَاءُوا إِلَى بَنِي رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنِي جَادَ وَنِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى إِلَى أَرْضِ جِلْعَادَ، وَكَلَّمُوهُمْ قَائِلِينَ: | ١٥ 15 |
And they came to the sons of Ruben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasse into the land of Galaad; and they spoke to them, saying,
«هَكَذَا قَالَتْ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ: مَا هَذِهِ ٱلْخِيَانَةُ ٱلَّتِي خُنْتُمْ بِهَا إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، بِٱلرُّجُوعِ ٱلْيَوْمَ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ، بِبُنْيَانِكُمْ لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ مَذْبَحًا لِتَتَمَرَّدُوا ٱلْيَوْمَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ؟ | ١٦ 16 |
Thus says the whole congregation of the Lord, What [is] this transgression that you have transgressed before the God of Israel, to turn away today from the Lord, in that you have built for yourselves an altar, so that you should be apostates from the Lord?
أَقَلِيلٌ لَنَا إِثْمُ فَغُورَ ٱلَّذِي لَمْ نَتَطَهَّرْ مِنْهُ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَكَانَ ٱلْوَبَأُ فِي جَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ، | ١٧ 17 |
Is the sin of Phogor too little for you, whereas we have not been cleansed from it until this day, though there was a plague amongst the congregation of the Lord?
حَتَّى تَرْجِعُوا أَنْتُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ؟ فَيَكُونُ أَنَّكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ تَتَمَرَّدُونَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ، وَهُوَ غَدًا يَسْخَطُ عَلَى كُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٨ 18 |
And you have this day revolted from the Lord; and it shall come to pass if you revolt this day from the Lord, that to-morrow there shall be wrath upon all Israel.
وَلَكِنْ إِذَا كَانَتْ نَجِسَةً أَرْضُ مُلْكِكُمْ فَٱعْبُرُوا إِلَى أَرْضِ مُلْكِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّتِي يَسْكُنُ فِيهَا مَسْكَنُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَتَمَلَّكُوا بَيْنَنَا، وَعَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ لَا تَتَمَرَّدُوا، وَعَلَيْنَا لَا تَتَمَرَّدُوا بِبِنَائِكُمْ لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ مَذْبَحًا غَيْرَ مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا. | ١٩ 19 |
And now if the land of your possession [be too] little, cross over to the land of the possession of the Lord, where the tabernacle of the Lord dwells, and receive you an inheritance amongst us; and do not become apostates from God, neither do you apostatize from the Lord, because of your having built an altar apart from the altar of the Lord our God.
أَمَا خَانَ عَخَانُ بْنُ زَارَحَ خِيَانَةً فِي ٱلْحَرَامِ، فَكَانَ ٱلسَّخَطُ عَلَى كُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَهُوَ رَجُلٌ لَمْ يَهْلِكْ وَحْدَهُ بِإِثْمِهِ؟». | ٢٠ 20 |
Behold! did not Achar the [son] of Zara commit a trespass [taking] of the accursed thing, and there was wrath on the whole congregation of Israel? and he himself died alone in his own sin.
فَأَجَابَ بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنُو جَادَ وَنِصْفُ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى وَقَالُوا لِرُؤَسَاءِ أُلُوفِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: | ٢١ 21 |
And the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse answered, and spoke to the captains of the thousands of Israel, saying,
«إِلَهُ ٱلْآلِهَةِ ٱلرَّبُّ، إِلَهُ ٱلْآلِهَةِ ٱلرَّبُّ هُوَ يَعْلَمُ، وَإِسْرَائِيلُ سَيَعْلَمُ. إِنْ كَانَ بِتَمَرُّدٍ وَإِنْ كَانَ بِخِيَانَةٍ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ، لَا تُخَلِّصْنَا هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
God [even] God is the Lord, and God [even] God himself knows, and Israel he shall know; if we have transgressed before the Lord by apostasy, let him not deliver us this day.
بُنْيَانُنَا لِأَنْفُسِنَا مَذْبَحًا لِلرُّجُوعِ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ، أَوْ لِإِصْعَادِ مُحْرَقَةٍ عَلَيْهِ أَوْ تَقْدِمَةٍ أَوْ لِعَمَلِ ذَبَائِحِ سَلَامَةٍ عَلَيْهِ، فَٱلرَّبُّ هُوَ يُطَالِبُ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And if we have built to ourselves an altar, so as to apostatize from the Lord our God, so as to offer upon it a sacrifice of whole burnt offerings, so as to offer upon it a sacrifice of peace-offering, —the Lord shall require it.
وَإِنْ كُنَّا لَمْ نَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ خَوْفًا وَعَنْ سَبَبٍ قَائِلِينَ: غَدًا يُكَلِّمُ بَنُوكُمْ بَنِينَا قَائِلِينَ: مَا لَكُمْ وَلِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ! | ٢٤ 24 |
But we have done this for the sake of precaution [concerning this] thing, saying, Lest hereafter your sons should say to our sons, What have you to do with the Lord God of Israel?
قَدْ جَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ تُخْمًا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ يَا بَنِي رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنِي جَادَ: ٱلْأُرْدُنُّ. لَيْسَ لَكُمْ قِسْمٌ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ. فَيَرُدُّ بَنُوكُمْ بَنِينَا حَتَّى لَا يَخَافُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Whereas the Lord has set boundaries between us and you, even Jordan, and you have no portion in the Lord: so your sons shall alienate our sons, that they should not worship the Lord.
فَقُلْنَا نَصْنَعُ نَحْنُ لِأَنْفُسِنَا. نَبْنِي مَذْبَحًا، لَا لِلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَلَا لِلذَّبِيحَةِ، | ٢٦ 26 |
And we gave orders to do thus, to build this altar, not for burnt offerings, nor for meat-offerings;
بَلْ لِيَكُونَ هُوَ شَاهِدًا بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ أَجْيَالِنَا بَعْدَنَا، لِكَيْ نَخْدُمَ خِدْمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ أَمَامَهُ بِمُحْرَقَاتِنَا وَذَبَائِحِنَا وَذَبَائِحِ سَلَامَتِنَا، وَلَا يَقُولُ بَنُوكُمْ غَدًا لِبَنِينَا: لَيْسَ لَكُمْ قِسْمٌ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٢٧ 27 |
but that this may be a witness between you and us, and between our posterity after us, that we may do service to the Lord before him, with our burnt offerings and our meat-offerings and our peace-offerings: so your sons shall not say to our sons, hereafter, You have no portion in the Lord.
وَقُلْنَا: يَكُونُ مَتَى قَالُوا كَذَا لَنَا وَلِأَجْيَالِنَا غَدًا، أَنَّنَا نَقُولُ: اُنْظُرُوا شِبْهَ مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَ آبَاؤُنَا، لَا لِلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَلَا لِلذَّبِيحَةِ، بَلْ هُوَ شَاهِدٌ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ. | ٢٨ 28 |
And we said, If ever it should come to pass that they should speak [so] to us, or to our posterity hereafter; then shall they say, Behold the likeness of the altar of the Lord, which our fathers made, not for the sake of burnt offerings, nor for the sake of meat-offerings, but it is a witness between you and us, and between our sons.
حَاشَا لَنَا مِنْهُ أَنْ نَتَمَرَّدَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ وَنَرْجِعَ ٱلْيَوْمَ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِبِنَاءِ مَذْبَحٍ لِلْمُحْرَقَةِ أَوِ ٱلتَّقْدِمَةِ أَوِ ٱلذَّبِيحَةِ، عَدَا مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا ٱلَّذِي هُوَ قُدَّامَ مَسْكَنِهِ». | ٢٩ 29 |
Far be it from us therefore that we should turn away from the Lord this day so as to apostatize from the Lord, so as that we should build an altar for burnt offerings, and for peace-offerings, besides the altar of the Lord which is before his tabernacle.
فَسَمِعَ فِينْحَاسُ ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَرُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ وَرُؤُوسُ أُلُوفِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنُو جَادَ وَبَنُو مَنَسَّى، فَحَسُنَ فِي أَعْيُنِهِمْ. | ٣٠ 30 |
And Phinees the priest and all the chiefs of the congregation of Israel who were with him heard the words which the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse spoke; and it pleased them.
فَقَالَ فِينْحَاسُ بْنُ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ لِبَنِي رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنِي جَادَ وَبَنِي مَنَسَّى: «ٱلْيَوْمَ عَلِمْنَا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ بَيْنَنَا لِأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَخُونُوا ٱلرَّبَّ بِهَذِهِ ٱلْخِيَانَةِ. فَٱلْآنَ قَدْ أَنْقَذْتُمْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلرَّبِّ». | ٣١ 31 |
And Phinees the priest said to the sons of Ruben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half of the tribe of Manasse, To-day we know that the Lord [is] with us, because you have not trespassed grievously against the Lord, and because you have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the Lord.
ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فِينْحَاسُ بْنُ أَلِعَازَارَ ٱلكَاهِنِ وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ مِنْ عِنْدِ بَنِي رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنِي جَادَ مِنْ أَرْضِ جِلْعَادَ إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ إِلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَرَدُّوا عَلَيْهِمْ خَبَرًا. | ٣٢ 32 |
So Phinees the priest and the princes departed from the children of Ruben, and from the children of Gad, and from the half tribe of Manasse out of Galaad into the land of Chanaan to the children of Israel; and reported the words to them.
فَحَسُنَ ٱلْأَمْرُ فِي أَعْيُنِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَبَارَكَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱللهَ، وَلَمْ يَفْتَكِرُوا بِٱلصُّعُودِ إِلَيْهِمْ لِلْحَرْبِ وَتَخْرِيبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَ بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنُو جَادَ سَاكِنِينَ بِهَا. | ٣٣ 33 |
And it pleased the children of Israel; and they spoke to the children of Israel, and blessed the God of the children of Israel, and told them to go up no more to war against the others to destroy the land of the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse: so they lived upon it.
وَسَمَّى بَنُو رَأُوبَيْنَ وَبَنُو جَادَ ٱلْمَذْبَحَ «عِيدًا» لِأَنَّهُ «شَاهِدٌ بَيْنَنَا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ هُوَ ٱللهُ». | ٣٤ 34 |
And Joshua gave a name to the altar of the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse; and said, It is a testimony in the midst of them, that the Lord is their God.
