< مَرَاثِي إِرْمِيَا 3 >

أَنَا هُوَ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي رأَى مَذَلَّةً بِقَضِيبِ سَخَطِهِ. ١ 1
I am the man that has seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
قَادَنِي وَسَيَّرَنِي فِي ٱلظَّلَامِ وَلَا نُورَ. ٢ 2
He has led me and caused me to walk in darkness, and not in light.
حَقًّا إِنَّهُ يَعُودُ وَيَرُدُّ عَلَيَّ يَدَهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. ٣ 3
Surely against me he turns his hand again and again all the day.
أَبْلَى لَحْمِي وَجِلْدِي. كَسَّرَ عِظَامِي. ٤ 4
My flesh and my skin he has made old; he has broken my bones.
بَنَى عَلَيَّ وَأَحَاطَنِي بِعَلْقَمٍ وَمَشَقَّةٍ. ٥ 5
He has built against me, and surrounded me with bitterness and hardship.
أَسْكَنَنِي فِي ظُلُمَاتٍ كَمَوْتَى ٱلْقِدَمِ. ٦ 6
He has made me to dwell in dark places, like those that have been long dead.
سَيَّجَ عَلَيَّ فَلَا أَسْتَطِيعُ ٱلْخُرُوجَ. ثَقَّلَ سِلْسِلَتِي. ٧ 7
He has walled me in, so I can't escape; he has made my chains heavy.
أَيْضًا حِينَ أَصْرُخُ وَأَسْتَغِيثُ يَصُدُّ صَلَاتِي. ٨ 8
Yes, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.
سَيَّجَ طُرُقِي بِحِجَارَةٍ مَنْحُوتَةٍ. قَلَبَ سُبُلِي. ٩ 9
He has walled up my ways with cut stone; he has made my paths crooked.
هُوَ لِي دُبٌّ كَامِنٌ، أَسَدٌ فِي مَخَابِىءَ. ١٠ 10
He is to me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in hiding.
مَيَّلَ طُرُقِي وَمَزَّقَنِي. جَعَلَنِي خَرَابًا. ١١ 11
He has obstructed my path, and torn me in pieces; he has made me desolate.
مَدَّ قَوْسَهُ وَنَصَبَنِي كَغَرَضٍ لِلسَّهْمِ. ١٢ 12
He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
أَدْخَلَ فِي كُلْيَتَيَّ نِبَالَ جُعْبَتِهِ. ١٣ 13
He has caused the arrows of his quiver to pierce my inward parts.
صِرْتُ ضُحْكَةً لِكُلِّ شَعْبِي، وَأُغْنِيَةً لَهُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. ١٤ 14
I have become a laughingstock to all peoples, and their song all the day.
أَشْبَعَنِي مَرَائِرَ وَأَرْوَانِي أَفْسَنْتِينًا، ١٥ 15
He has filled me with bitterness, he has given me in full measure wormwood.
وَجَرَشَ بِٱلْحَصَى أَسْنَانِي. كَبَسَنِي بِٱلرَّمَادِ. ١٦ 16
He has also broken my teeth with gravel; he has pressed me down in the dust.
وَقَدْ أَبْعَدْتَ عَنِ ٱلسَّلَامِ نَفْسِي. نَسِيتُ ٱلْخَيْرَ. ١٧ 17
You have removed my soul far away from peace; I have forgotten what prosperity is.
وَقُلْتُ: «بَادَتْ ثِقَتِي وَرَجَائِي مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ». ١٨ 18
And I said, "My strength and my hope has perished from YHWH."
ذِكْرُ مَذَلَّتِي وَتَيَهَانِي أَفْسَنْتِينٌ وَعَلْقَمٌ. ١٩ 19
Remember my affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
ذِكْرًا تَذْكُرُ نَفْسِي وَتَنْحَنِي فِيَّ. ٢٠ 20
My soul considers them, and is depressed.
أُرَدِّدُ هَذَا فِي قَلْبِي، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَرْجُو: ٢١ 21
But this I call to my mind; therefore I have hope:
إِنَّهُ مِنْ إِحْسَانَاتِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنَّنَا لَمْ نَفْنَ، لِأَنَّ مَرَاحِمَهُ لَا تَزُولُ. ٢٢ 22
YHWH's faithful love does not cease; his compassion does not fail.
هِيَ جَدِيدَةٌ فِي كُلِّ صَبَاحٍ. كَثِيرَةٌ أَمَانَتُكَ. ٢٣ 23
They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
نَصِيبِي هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ، قَالَتْ نَفْسِي، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَرْجُوهُ. ٢٤ 24
"YHWH is my portion," says my soul, "therefore I will hope in him."
طَيِّبٌ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلَّذِينَ يَتَرَجَّوْنَهُ، لِلنَّفْسِ ٱلَّتِي تَطْلُبُهُ. ٢٥ 25
YHWH is good to those who wait for him, to the soul that seeks him.
جَيِّدٌ أَنْ يَنْتَظِرَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ وَيَتَوَقَّعَ بِسُكُوتٍ خَلَاصَ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢٦ 26
It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of YHWH.
جَيِّدٌ لِلرَّجُلِ أَنْ يَحْمِلَ ٱلنِّيرَ فِي صِبَاهُ. ٢٧ 27
It is good for a man that he bear the yoke while he is young.
يَجْلِسُ وَحْدَهُ وَيَسْكُتُ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ وَضَعَهُ عَلَيْهِ. ٢٨ 28
Let him sit alone and keep silence when he is disciplining him.
يَجْعَلُ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ فَمَهُ لَعَلَّهُ يُوجَدُ رَجَاءٌ. ٢٩ 29
Let him put his mouth to the dust, there may yet be hope.
يُعْطِي خَدَّهُ لِضَارِبِهِ. يَشْبَعُ عَارًا. ٣٠ 30
Let him give his cheek to him who strikes him; let him be filled with insults.
لِأَنَّ ٱلسَّيِّدَ لَا يَرْفُضُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. ٣١ 31
For YHWH will not reject forever.
فَإِنَّهُ وَلَوْ أَحْزَنَ يَرْحَمُ حَسَبَ كَثْرَةِ مَرَاحِمِهِ. ٣٢ 32
For though he may cause grief, yet he will have compassion according to the abundance of his loving kindness.
لِأَنَّهُ لَا يُذِلُّ مِنْ قَلْبِهِ، وَلَا يُحْزِنُ بَنِي ٱلْإِنْسَانِ. ٣٣ 33
For he is not predisposed to bring affliction or suffering to human beings.
أَنْ يَدُوسَ أَحَدٌ تَحْتَ رِجْلَيْهِ كُلَّ أَسْرَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، ٣٤ 34
To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth;
أَنْ يُحَرِّفَ حَقَّ ٱلرَّجُلِ أَمَامَ وَجْهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ، ٣٥ 35
to deprive a man of justice before the face of the Most High,
أَنْ يَقْلِبَ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ فِي دَعْوَاهُ. ٱلسَّيِّدُ لَا يَرَى! ٣٦ 36
to subvert a man in his cause, YHWH does not approve.
مَنْ ذَا ٱلَّذِي يَقُولُ فَيَكُونَ وَٱلرَّبُّ لَمْ يَأْمُرْ؟ ٣٧ 37
Who can speak a thing and have it come to pass, unless YHWH has commanded it?
مِنْ فَمِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ أَلَا تَخْرُجُ ٱلشُّرُورُ وَٱلْخَيْرُ؟ ٣٨ 38
Doesn't both calamity and good come out of the mouth of the Most High?
لِمَاذَا يَشْتَكِي ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلْحَيُّ، ٱلرَّجُلُ مِنْ قِصَاصِ خَطَايَاهُ؟ ٣٩ 39
Why does a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
لِنَفْحَصْ طُرُقَنَا وَنَمْتَحِنْهَا وَنَرْجِعْ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. ٤٠ 40
Let us examine and search our ways, and return to YHWH.
لِنَرْفَعْ قُلُوبَنَا وَأَيْدِيَنَا إِلَى ٱللهِ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ: ٤١ 41
Let us lift up our heart with our hands to God in the heavens.
«نَحْنُ أَذْنَبْنَا وَعَصَيْنَا. أَنْتَ لَمْ تَغْفِرْ. ٤٢ 42
We have transgressed and have rebelled, and you have not forgiven.
ٱلْتَحَفْتَ بِٱلْغَضَبِ وَطَرَدْتَنَا. قَتَلْتَ وَلَمْ تَشْفِقْ. ٤٣ 43
You have covered yourself with anger and pursued us; you killed without sparing.
ٱلْتَحَفْتَ بِٱلسَّحَابِ حَتَّى لَا تَنْفُذَ ٱلصَّلَاةُ. ٤٤ 44
You have covered yourself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.
جَعَلْتَنَا وَسَخًا وَكَرْهًا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. ٤٥ 45
You have made us rubbish and refuse in the midst of the peoples.
فَتَحَ كُلُّ أَعْدَائِنَا أَفْوَاهَهُمْ عَلَيْنَا. ٤٦ 46
All our enemies have opened their mouth wide against us.
صَارَ عَلَيْنَا خَوْفٌ وَرُعْبٌ، هَلَاكٌ وَسَحْقٌ». ٤٧ 47
Fear and the pit have come on us, devastation and destruction.
سَكَبَتْ عَيْنَايَ يَنَابِيعَ مَاءٍ عَلَى سَحْقِ بِنْتِ شَعْبِي. ٤٨ 48
Streams of tears run down from my eyes because of the destruction of the daughter of my people.
عَيْنِي تَسْكُبُ وَلَا تَكُفُّ بِلَا ٱنْقِطَاعٍ ٤٩ 49
My tears flow and do not cease, without respite,
حَتَّى يُشْرِفَ وَيَنْظُرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. ٥٠ 50
until YHWH looks down and sees from heaven.
عَيْنِي تُؤَثِّرُ فِي نَفْسِي لِأَجْلِ كُلِّ بَنَاتِ مَدِينَتِي. ٥١ 51
My eyes bring my soul grief, because of all the daughters of my city.
قَدِ ٱصْطَادَتْنِي أَعْدَائِي كَعُصْفُورٍ بِلَا سَبَبٍ. ٥٢ 52
They have chased me relentlessly like a bird, those who are my enemies without cause.
قَرَضُوا فِي ٱلْجُبِّ حَيَاتِي وَأَلْقَوْا عَلَيَّ حِجَارَةً. ٥٣ 53
They have cut off my life in a pit, and have cast a stone on me.
طَفَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ فَوْقَ رَأْسِي. قُلْتُ: «قَدْ قُرِضْتُ!». ٥٤ 54
Waters flowed over my head; I said, 'I am finished.'
دَعَوْتُ بِٱسْمِكَ يَارَبُّ مِنَ ٱلْجُبِّ ٱلْأَسْفَلِ. ٥٥ 55
I called on your name, YHWH, out of the depths of the pit.
لِصَوْتِي سَمِعْتَ: «لَا تَسْتُرْ أُذُنَكَ عَنْ زَفْرَتِي، عَنْ صِيَاحِي». ٥٦ 56
You heard my voice; do not hide your ear at my sighs, to my cry.
دَنَوْتَ يَوْمَ دَعَوْتُكَ. قُلْتَ: «لَا تَخَفْ!». ٥٧ 57
You drew near in the day that I called on you; you said, "Do not be afraid."
خَاصَمْتَ يَا سَيِّدُ خُصُومَاتِ نَفْسِي. فَكَكْتَ حَيَاتِي. ٥٨ 58
YHWH, you have taken up the case for my soul; you have redeemed my life.
رَأَيْتَ يَارَبُّ ظُلْمِي. أَقِمْ دَعْوَايَ. ٥٩ 59
You have seen, YHWH, the wrong done to me; judge my case.
رَأَيْتَ كُلَّ نَقْمَتِهِمْ، كُلَّ أَفْكَارِهِمْ عَلَيَّ. ٦٠ 60
You have seen all their vengeance and all their plots against me.
سَمِعْتَ تَعْيِيرَهُمْ يَارَبُّ، كُلَّ أَفْكَارِهِمْ عَلَيَّ. ٦١ 61
You have heard their insults, YHWH, and all their plots against me.
كَلَامُ مُقَاوِمِيَّ وَمُؤَامَرَتُهُمْ عَلَيَّ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. ٦٢ 62
The lips of those that rose up against me, and their plots against me all day long.
اُنْظُرْ إِلَى جُلُوسِهِمْ وَوُقُوفِهِمْ، أَنَا أُغْنِيَتُهُمْ! ٦٣ 63
Look their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their mocking song.
رُدَّ لَهُمْ جَزَاءً يَارَبُّ حَسَبَ عَمَلِ أَيَادِيهِمْ. ٦٤ 64
You will render to them what they deserve, YHWH, according to the work of their hands.
أَعْطِهِمْ غِشَاوَةَ قَلْبٍ، لَعْنَتَكَ لَهُمْ. ٦٥ 65
You will give them hardness of heart as your curse to them.
اِتْبَعْ بِٱلْغَضَبِ وَأَهْلِكْهُمْ مِنْ تَحْتِ سَمَاوَاتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٦٦ 66
You will pursue them in anger, and destroy them from under the heavens of YHWH.
