< يَشُوع 24 >

وَجَمَعَ يَشُوعُ جَمِيعَ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى شَكِيمَ. وَدَعَا شُيُوخَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَرُؤَسَاءَهُمْ وَقُضَاتَهُمْ وَعُرَفَاءَهُمْ فَمَثَلُوا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١ 1
Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and called for the elders of Israel, for their heads, for their judges, and for their officers; and they presented themselves before God.
وَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: آبَاؤُكُمْ سَكَنُوا فِي عَبْرِ ٱلنَّهْرِ مُنْذُ ٱلدَّهْرِ. تَارَحُ أَبُو إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَأَبُو نَاحُورَ، وَعَبَدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى. ٢ 2
Joshua said to all the people, "Thus says YHWH, the God of Israel, 'Your fathers lived of old time beyond the River, even Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nahor: and they served other gods.
فَأَخَذْتُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَبَاكُمْ مِنْ عَبْرِ ٱلنَّهْرِ وَسِرْتُ بِهِ فِي كُلِّ أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ، وَأَكْثَرْتُ نَسْلَهُ وَأَعْطَيْتُهُ إِسْحَاقَ. ٣ 3
I took your father Abraham from beyond the River, and led him throughout all the land of Canaan, and multiplied his descendants, and gave him Isaac.
وَأَعْطَيْتُ إِسْحَاقَ يَعْقُوبَ وَعِيسُوَ، وَأَعْطَيْتُ عِيسُوَ جَبَلَ سَعِيرَ لِيَمْلِكَهُ. وَأَمَّا يَعْقُوبُ وَبَنُوهُ فَنَزَلُوا إِلَى مِصْرَ. ٤ 4
And I gave to Isaac Jacob and Esau. And I gave to Esau Mount Seir, to possess it. And Jacob and his children went down into Egypt, and became there a great and numerous and mighty nation, and the Egyptians afflicted them.
وَأَرْسَلْتُ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ وَضَرَبْتُ مِصْرَ حَسَبَ مَا فَعَلْتُ فِي وَسَطِهَا، ثُمَّ أَخْرَجْتُكُمْ. ٥ 5
And I sent Moses and Aaron, and I plagued Egypt, according to that which I did in its midst; and afterward I brought you out
فَأَخْرَجْتُ آبَاءَكُمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ، وَدَخَلْتُمُ ٱلْبَحْرَ وَتَبِعَ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ آبَاءَكُمْ بِمَرْكَبَاتٍ وَفُرْسَانٍ إِلَى بَحْرِ سُوفٍ. ٦ 6
from Egypt. And you came to the sea, and the Egyptians pursued after your fathers with chariots and with horsemen to the Red Sea.
فَصَرَخُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ، فَجَعَلَ ظَلَامًا بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ، وَجَلَبَ عَلَيْهِمِ ٱلْبَحْرَ فَغَطَّاهُمْ. وَرَأَتْ أَعْيُنُكُمْ مَا فَعَلْتُ فِي مِصْرَ، وَأَقَمْتُمْ فِي ٱلْقَفْرِ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً. ٧ 7
When they cried out to YHWH, he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea on them, and covered them; and your eyes saw what I did in Egypt: and you lived in the wilderness many days.
ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ بِكُمْ إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ فَحَارَبُوكُمْ، وَدَفَعْتُهُمْ بِيَدِكُمْ فَمَلَكْتُمْ أَرْضَهُمْ وَأَهْلَكْتُهُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِكُمْ. ٨ 8
I brought you into the land of the Amorites, that lived beyond the Jordan: and they fought with you; and I gave them into your hand. You possessed their land; and I destroyed them from before you.
وَقَامَ بَالَاقُ بْنُ صِفُّورَ مَلِكُ مُوآبَ وَحَارَبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَرْسَلَ وَدَعَا بَلْعَامَ بْنَ بَعُورَ لِكَيْ يَلْعَنَكُمْ. ٩ 9
Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, arose and fought against Israel. He sent and called Balaam the son of Beor to curse you;
وَلَمْ أَشَأْ أَنْ أَسْمَعَ لِبَلْعَامَ، فَبَارَكَكُمْ بَرَكَةً وَأَنْقَذْتُكُمْ مِنْ يَدِهِ. ١٠ 10
but I would not listen to Balaam; therefore he blessed you still. So I delivered you out of his hand.
ثُمَّ عَبَرْتُمُ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ وَأَتَيْتُمْ إِلَى أَرِيحَا. فَحَارَبَكُمْ أَصْحَابُ أَرِيحَا: ٱلْأَمُورِيُّونَ وَٱلْفِرِزِّيُّونَ وَٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ وَٱلْحِثِّيُّونَ وَٱلْجِرْجَاشِيُّونَ وَٱلْحِوِّيُّونَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيُّونَ، فَدَفَعْتُهُمْ بِيَدِكُمْ. ١١ 11
You went over the Jordan, and came to Jericho. The men of Jericho fought against you, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hethite, the Girgashite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I delivered them into your hand.
وَأَرْسَلْتُ قُدَّامَكُمُ ٱلزَّنَابِيرَ وَطَرَدْتُهُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِكُمْ، أَيْ مَلِكَيِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ، لَا بِسَيْفِكَ وَلَا بِقَوْسِكَ. ١٢ 12
I sent the hornet before you, which drove them out from before you, even the two kings of the Amorites; not with your sword, nor with your bow.
وَأَعْطَيْتُكُمْ أَرْضًا لَمْ تَتْعَبُوا عَلَيْهَا، وَمُدُنًا لَمْ تَبْنُوهَا وَتَسْكُنُونَ بِهَا، وَمِنْ كُرُومٍ وَزَيْتُونٍ لَمْ تَغْرِسُوهَا تَأْكُلُونَ. ١٣ 13
I gave you a land whereon you had not labored, and cities which you did not build, and you live in them. You eat of vineyards and olive groves which you did not plant.'
فَٱلْآنَ ٱخْشَوْا ٱلرَّبَّ وَٱعْبُدُوهُ بِكَمَالٍ وَأَمَانَةٍ، وَٱنْزِعُوا ٱلْآلِهَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَبَدَهُمْ آبَاؤُكُمْ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلنَّهْرِ وَفِي مِصْرَ، وَٱعْبُدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. ١٤ 14
Now therefore fear YHWH, and serve him in sincerity and in truth. Put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve YHWH.
وَإِنْ سَاءَ فِي أَعْيُنِكُمْ أَنْ تَعْبُدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ، فَٱخْتَارُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ مَنْ تَعْبُدُونَ: إِنْ كَانَ ٱلْآلِهَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَبَدَهُمْ آبَاؤُكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلنَّهْرِ، وَإِنْ كَانَ آلِهَةَ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنْتُمْ سَاكِنُونَ فِي أَرْضِهِمْ. وَأَمَّا أَنَا وَبَيْتِي فَنَعْبُدُ ٱلرَّبَّ». ١٥ 15
If it seems evil to you to serve YHWH, choose this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve YHWH."
فَأَجَابَ ٱلشَّعْبُ وَقَالُوا: «حَاشَا لَنَا أَنْ نَتْرُكَ ٱلرَّبَّ لِنَعْبُدَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، ١٦ 16
The people answered, "Far be it from us that we should forsake YHWH, to serve other gods;
لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا هُوَ ٱلَّذِي أَصْعَدَنَا وَآبَاءَنَا مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ، وَٱلَّذِي عَمِلَ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِنَا تِلْكَ ٱلْآيَاتِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةَ، وَحَفِظَنَا فِي كُلِّ ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّتِي سِرْنَا فِيهَا وَفِي جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ عَبَرْنَا فِي وَسَطِهِمْ. ١٧ 17
for it is YHWH our God who brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and who did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way in which we went, and among all the peoples through the midst of whom we passed.
وَطَرَدَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ أَمَامِنَا جَمِيعَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ ٱلْأَرْضَ. فَنَحْنُ أَيْضًا نَعْبُدُ ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَنَّهُ هُوَ إِلَهُنَا». ١٨ 18
YHWH drove out from before us all the peoples, even the Amorites who lived in the land. Therefore we also will serve YHWH; for he is our God."
فَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِلشَّعْبِ: «لَا تَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ تَعْبُدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَنَّهُ إِلَهٌ قُدُّوسٌ وَإِلَهٌ غَيُورٌ هُوَ. لَا يَغْفِرُ ذُنُوبَكُمْ وَخَطَايَاكُمْ. ١٩ 19
Joshua said to the people, "You can't serve YHWH; for he is a holy God. He is a jealous God. He will not forgive your disobedience nor your sins.
وَإِذَا تَرَكْتُمُ ٱلرَّبَّ وَعَبَدْتُمْ آلِهَةً غَرِيبَةً يَرْجِعُ فَيُسِيءُ إِلَيْكُمْ وَيُفْنِيكُمْ بَعْدَ أَنْ أَحْسَنَ إِلَيْكُمْ». ٢٠ 20
If you forsake YHWH, and serve foreign gods, then he will turn and do you harm, and consume you, after he has done you good."
فَقَالَ ٱلشَّعْبُ لِيَشُوعَ: «لَا. بَلِ ٱلرَّبَّ نَعْبُدُ». ٢١ 21
The people said to Joshua, "No; but we will serve YHWH."
فَقَالَ يَشُوعُ لِلشَّعْبِ: «أَنْتُمْ شُهُودٌ عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ قَدِ ٱخْتَرْتُمْ لِأَنْفُسِكُمُ ٱلرَّبَّ لِتَعْبُدُوهُ». فَقَالُوا: «نَحْنُ شُهُودٌ». ٢٢ 22
Joshua said to the people, "You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen you YHWH, to serve him." They said, "We are witnesses."
«فَٱلْآنَ ٱنْزِعُوا ٱلْآلِهَةَ ٱلْغَرِيبَةَ ٱلَّتِي فِي وَسَطِكُمْ وَأَمِيلُوا قُلُوبَكُمْ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ». ٢٣ 23
"Now therefore put away the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to YHWH, the God of Israel."
فَقَالَ ٱلشَّعْبُ لِيَشُوعَ: «ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَنَا نَعْبُدُ وَلِصَوْتِهِ نَسْمَعُ». ٢٤ 24
The people said to Joshua, "We will serve YHWH our God, and we will listen to his voice."
وَقَطَعَ يَشُوعُ عَهْدًا لِلشَّعْبِ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَجَعَلَ لَهُمْ فَرِيضَةً وَحُكْمًا فِي شَكِيمَ. ٢٥ 25
So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and made for them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem.
وَكَتَبَ يَشُوعُ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامَ فِي سِفْرِ شَرِيعَةِ ٱللهِ. وَأَخَذَ حَجَرًا كَبِيرًا وَنَصَبَهُ هُنَاكَ تَحْتَ ٱلْبَلُّوطَةِ ٱلَّتِي عِنْدَ مَقْدِسِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢٦ 26
Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and set it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuary of YHWH.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَشُوعُ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ: «إِنَّ هَذَا ٱلْحَجَرَ يَكُونُ شَاهِدًا عَلَيْنَا، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ سَمِعَ كُلَّ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَنَا بِهِ، فَيَكُونُ شَاهِدًا عَلَيْكُمْ لِئَلَّا تَجْحَدُوا إِلَهَكُمْ». ٢٧ 27
Joshua said to all the people, "Look, this stone shall be a witness against us; for it has heard all the words of YHWH which he spoke to us. It shall be therefore a witness against you, lest you deny your God."
ثُمَّ صَرَفَ يَشُوعُ ٱلشَّعْبَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مُلْكِهِ. ٢٨ 28
So Joshua sent the people away, every man to his inheritance.
وَكَانَ بَعْدَ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ أَنَّهُ مَاتَ يَشُوعُ بْنُ نُونٍ عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱبْنَ مِئَةٍ وَعَشْرِ سِنِينَ. ٢٩ 29
It happened after these things, that Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of YHWH, died, being one hundred ten years old.
فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي تُخْمِ مُلْكِهِ، فِي تِمْنَةَ سَارَحَ ٱلَّتِي فِي جَبَلِ أَفْرَايِمَ شِمَالِيَّ جَبَلِ جَاعَشَ. ٣٠ 30
They buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath Serah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash.
وَعَبَدَ إِسْرَائِيلُ ٱلرَّبَّ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ يَشُوعَ، وَكُلَّ أَيَّامِ ٱلشُّيُوخِ ٱلَّذِينَ طَالَتْ أَيَّامُهُمْ بَعْدَ يَشُوعَ وَٱلَّذِينَ عَرَفُوا كُلَّ عَمَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣١ 31
Israel served YHWH all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, and had known all the work of YHWH, that he had worked for Israel.
وَعِظَامُ يُوسُفَ ٱلَّتِي أَصْعَدَهَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ مِصْرَ دَفَنُوهَا فِي شَكِيمَ، فِي قِطْعَةِ ٱلْحَقْلِ ٱلَّتِي ٱشْتَرَاهَا يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ بَنِي حَمُورَ أَبِي شَكِيمَ بِمِئَةِ قَسِيطَةٍ، فَصَارَتْ لِبَنِي يُوسُفَ مُلْكًا. ٣٢ 32
They buried the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt, in Shechem, in the parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for a hundred kesitahs. They became the inheritance of the descendants of Joseph.
وَمَاتَ أَلِعَازَارُ بْنُ هَارُونَ فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي جِبْعَةِ فِينْحَاسَ ٱبْنِهِ ٱلَّتِي أُعْطِيَتْ لَهُ فِي جَبَلِ أَفْرَايِمَ. ٣٣ 33
Eleazar the son of Aaron died. They buried him in the hill of Phinehas his son, which was given him in the hill country of Ephraim.
