مَرَاثِي إِرْمِيَا 3
| أَنَا هُوَ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي رأَى مَذَلَّةً بِقَضِيبِ سَخَطِهِ. | ١ 1 |
I am the man that hath seen affliction under the rod of His wrath;
| قَادَنِي وَسَيَّرَنِي فِي ٱلظَّلَامِ وَلَا نُورَ. | ٢ 2 |
He hath led me and brought me into darkness, and not into light;
| حَقًّا إِنَّهُ يَعُودُ وَيَرُدُّ عَلَيَّ يَدَهُ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. | ٣ 3 |
Yea, against me doth he again and again turn his hand all the day long.
| أَبْلَى لَحْمِي وَجِلْدِي. كَسَّرَ عِظَامِي. | ٤ 4 |
My flesh and my skin hath he made old; he hath broken my bones.
| بَنَى عَلَيَّ وَأَحَاطَنِي بِعَلْقَمٍ وَمَشَقَّةٍ. | ٥ 5 |
He hath builded against me, and encompassed me with bitterness and woe.
| أَسْكَنَنِي فِي ظُلُمَاتٍ كَمَوْتَى ٱلْقِدَمِ. | ٦ 6 |
He hath set me in dark places, as those that have long been dead.
| سَيَّجَ عَلَيَّ فَلَا أَسْتَطِيعُ ٱلْخُرُوجَ. ثَقَّلَ سِلْسِلَتِي. | ٧ 7 |
He hath hedged me about, so that I cannot get out; he hath made my chain heavy;
| أَيْضًا حِينَ أَصْرُخُ وَأَسْتَغِيثُ يَصُدُّ صَلَاتِي. | ٨ 8 |
Yea, when I cry and call aloud, he shutteth out my prayer.
| سَيَّجَ طُرُقِي بِحِجَارَةٍ مَنْحُوتَةٍ. قَلَبَ سُبُلِي. | ٩ 9 |
He blocketh up my way with hewn stone; he maketh my paths crooked.
| هُوَ لِي دُبٌّ كَامِنٌ، أَسَدٌ فِي مَخَابِىءَ. | ١٠ 10 |
A bear lying in wait hath he been to me, a lion in lurking-places.
| مَيَّلَ طُرُقِي وَمَزَّقَنِي. جَعَلَنِي خَرَابًا. | ١١ 11 |
He hath turned aside my ways, and torn me in pieces; he hath made me desolate.
| مَدَّ قَوْسَهُ وَنَصَبَنِي كَغَرَضٍ لِلسَّهْمِ. | ١٢ 12 |
He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
| أَدْخَلَ فِي كُلْيَتَيَّ نِبَالَ جُعْبَتِهِ. | ١٣ 13 |
He hath caused the sons of his quiver to pierce my reins.
| صِرْتُ ضُحْكَةً لِكُلِّ شَعْبِي، وَأُغْنِيَةً لَهُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. | ١٤ 14 |
I have been a laughing-stock to all my people, their song all the day.
| أَشْبَعَنِي مَرَائِرَ وَأَرْوَانِي أَفْسَنْتِينًا، | ١٥ 15 |
He hath filled me with bitterness; he hath made me drunk with wormwood.
| وَجَرَشَ بِٱلْحَصَى أَسْنَانِي. كَبَسَنِي بِٱلرَّمَادِ. | ١٦ 16 |
He hath also broken my teeth with gravel-stones; He hath covered me with ashes.
| وَقَدْ أَبْعَدْتَ عَنِ ٱلسَّلَامِ نَفْسِي. نَسِيتُ ٱلْخَيْرَ. | ١٧ 17 |
Yea, thou hast removed my soul far from peace; I have forgotten prosperity.
| وَقُلْتُ: «بَادَتْ ثِقَتِي وَرَجَائِي مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ». | ١٨ 18 |
And I say, “My confidence and my hope in Jehovah are gone!”
| 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 |
Yea, thou wilt remember them, for my soul sinketh within me!
| أُرَدِّدُ هَذَا فِي قَلْبِي، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَرْجُو: | ٢١ 21 |
This I recall to my mind; therefore have I hope;
| إِنَّهُ مِنْ إِحْسَانَاتِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنَّنَا لَمْ نَفْنَ، لِأَنَّ مَرَاحِمَهُ لَا تَزُولُ. | ٢٢ 22 |
It is of the mercy of Jehovah that we are not consumed; yea, his compassion faileth not;
| هِيَ جَدِيدَةٌ فِي كُلِّ صَبَاحٍ. كَثِيرَةٌ أَمَانَتُكَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
It is new every morning; great is thy faithfulness.
| نَصِيبِي هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ، قَالَتْ نَفْسِي، مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَرْجُوهُ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Jehovah is my portion, saith my soul, therefore do I hope in him.
| طَيِّبٌ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلَّذِينَ يَتَرَجَّوْنَهُ، لِلنَّفْسِ ٱلَّتِي تَطْلُبُهُ. | ٢٥ 25 |
Jehovah is good to them that trust in him, to the soul that seeketh him.
| جَيِّدٌ أَنْ يَنْتَظِرَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ وَيَتَوَقَّعَ بِسُكُوتٍ خَلَاصَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٢٦ 26 |
It is good that a man hope, and quietly wait for salvation from Jehovah.
| جَيِّدٌ لِلرَّجُلِ أَنْ يَحْمِلَ ٱلنِّيرَ فِي صِبَاهُ. | ٢٧ 27 |
It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth;
| يَجْلِسُ وَحْدَهُ وَيَسْكُتُ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ وَضَعَهُ عَلَيْهِ. | ٢٨ 28 |
That he sit alone and keep silence, since He layeth it upon him;
| يَجْعَلُ فِي ٱلتُّرَابِ فَمَهُ لَعَلَّهُ يُوجَدُ رَجَاءٌ. | ٢٩ 29 |
That he put his mouth in the dust, [[saying to himself, ]] “Perhaps there may be hope!”
| يُعْطِي خَدَّهُ لِضَارِبِهِ. يَشْبَعُ عَارًا. | ٣٠ 30 |
That he offer his cheek to the smiter; that he be filled with reproach.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلسَّيِّدَ لَا يَرْفُضُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ٣١ 31 |
For the Lord will not cast off forever;
| فَإِنَّهُ وَلَوْ أَحْزَنَ يَرْحَمُ حَسَبَ كَثْرَةِ مَرَاحِمِهِ. | ٣٢ 32 |
For though he cause grief, yet doth he have compassion according to his great mercy;
| لِأَنَّهُ لَا يُذِلُّ مِنْ قَلْبِهِ، وَلَا يُحْزِنُ بَنِي ٱلْإِنْسَانِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
For he doth not willingly afflict and grieve the children of men.
| أَنْ يَدُوسَ أَحَدٌ تَحْتَ رِجْلَيْهِ كُلَّ أَسْرَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، | ٣٤ 34 |
Doth one trample under foot all the prisoners of the earth,
| أَنْ يُحَرِّفَ حَقَّ ٱلرَّجُلِ أَمَامَ وَجْهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ، | ٣٥ 35 |
Doth he bend the right of a man before the face of the Most High,
| أَنْ يَقْلِبَ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ فِي دَعْوَاهُ. ٱلسَّيِّدُ لَا يَرَى! | ٣٦ 36 |
Doth he subvert a man in his cause, and shall not the Lord behold it?
| مَنْ ذَا ٱلَّذِي يَقُولُ فَيَكُونَ وَٱلرَّبُّ لَمْ يَأْمُرْ؟ | ٣٧ 37 |
Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord hath not commanded?
| مِنْ فَمِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ أَلَا تَخْرُجُ ٱلشُّرُورُ وَٱلْخَيْرُ؟ | ٣٨ 38 |
Cometh not evil, as well as good, from the mouth of the Most High?
| لِمَاذَا يَشْتَكِي ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلْحَيُّ، ٱلرَّجُلُ مِنْ قِصَاصِ خَطَايَاهُ؟ | ٣٩ 39 |
Wherefore then murmureth the living man? Let him murmur at his own sin!
| لِنَفْحَصْ طُرُقَنَا وَنَمْتَحِنْهَا وَنَرْجِعْ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٤٠ 40 |
Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to Jehovah!
| لِنَرْفَعْ قُلُوبَنَا وَأَيْدِيَنَا إِلَى ٱللهِ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ: | ٤١ 41 |
Let us lift up our hearts with our hands to God in the heavens!
| «نَحْنُ أَذْنَبْنَا وَعَصَيْنَا. أَنْتَ لَمْ تَغْفِرْ. | ٤٢ 42 |
We have transgressed; we have rebelled; thou hast not forgiven!
| ٱلْتَحَفْتَ بِٱلْغَضَبِ وَطَرَدْتَنَا. قَتَلْتَ وَلَمْ تَشْفِقْ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Thou hast hidden thyself in anger, and hast pursued us; thou hast slain and hast not spared;
| ٱلْتَحَفْتَ بِٱلسَّحَابِ حَتَّى لَا تَنْفُذَ ٱلصَّلَاةُ. | ٤٤ 44 |
Thou hast hidden thyself in a cloud, that our prayer may not pass through;
| جَعَلْتَنَا وَسَخًا وَكَرْهًا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. | ٤٥ 45 |
Thou hast made us the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the nations.
| فَتَحَ كُلُّ أَعْدَائِنَا أَفْوَاهَهُمْ عَلَيْنَا. | ٤٦ 46 |
All our enemies have opened their mouths against us;
| صَارَ عَلَيْنَا خَوْفٌ وَرُعْبٌ، هَلَاكٌ وَسَحْقٌ». | ٤٧ 47 |
Terror and the pit have come upon us, desolation and destruction;
| سَكَبَتْ عَيْنَايَ يَنَابِيعَ مَاءٍ عَلَى سَحْقِ بِنْتِ شَعْبِي. | ٤٨ 48 |
Mine eye runneth down with streams of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
| عَيْنِي تَسْكُبُ وَلَا تَكُفُّ بِلَا ٱنْقِطَاعٍ | ٤٩ 49 |
Mine eye trickleth down and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
| حَتَّى يُشْرِفَ وَيَنْظُرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ. | ٥٠ 50 |
Until Jehovah look down and behold from heaven.
| عَيْنِي تُؤَثِّرُ فِي نَفْسِي لِأَجْلِ كُلِّ بَنَاتِ مَدِينَتِي. | ٥١ 51 |
Mine eye is painful to me on account of all the daughters of my city.
| قَدِ ٱصْطَادَتْنِي أَعْدَائِي كَعُصْفُورٍ بِلَا سَبَبٍ. | ٥٢ 52 |
They that are my enemies without cause hunt me down like a bird;
| قَرَضُوا فِي ٱلْجُبِّ حَيَاتِي وَأَلْقَوْا عَلَيَّ حِجَارَةً. | ٥٣ 53 |
They take away my life in the dungeon; they cast a stone upon me;
| طَفَتِ ٱلْمِيَاهُ فَوْقَ رَأْسِي. قُلْتُ: «قَدْ قُرِضْتُ!». | ٥٤ 54 |
Waters flow over my head; I say, “I am undone!”
| دَعَوْتُ بِٱسْمِكَ يَارَبُّ مِنَ ٱلْجُبِّ ٱلْأَسْفَلِ. | ٥٥ 55 |
I call upon thy name, O Jehovah, from the deep dungeon;
| لِصَوْتِي سَمِعْتَ: «لَا تَسْتُرْ أُذُنَكَ عَنْ زَفْرَتِي، عَنْ صِيَاحِي». | ٥٦ 56 |
Hear thou my voice! hide not thine ear from my cry for relief!
| دَنَوْتَ يَوْمَ دَعَوْتُكَ. قُلْتَ: «لَا تَخَفْ!». | ٥٧ 57 |
Be near to me, when I call upon thee! Say, “Fear not!”
| خَاصَمْتَ يَا سَيِّدُ خُصُومَاتِ نَفْسِي. فَكَكْتَ حَيَاتِي. | ٥٨ 58 |
Thou maintainest my cause, O Lord; thou redeemest my life!
| رَأَيْتَ يَارَبُّ ظُلْمِي. أَقِمْ دَعْوَايَ. | ٥٩ 59 |
Thou, O Jehovah, seest the wrong done to me; Maintain thou my cause!
| رَأَيْتَ كُلَّ نَقْمَتِهِمْ، كُلَّ أَفْكَارِهِمْ عَلَيَّ. | ٦٠ 60 |
Thou seest all their vengeance, all their devices against me.
| سَمِعْتَ تَعْيِيرَهُمْ يَارَبُّ، كُلَّ أَفْكَارِهِمْ عَلَيَّ. | ٦١ 61 |
Thou hearest their reproach, O Jehovah, all their devices against me,
| كَلَامُ مُقَاوِمِيَّ وَمُؤَامَرَتُهُمْ عَلَيَّ ٱلْيَوْمَ كُلَّهُ. | ٦٢ 62 |
The words of my adversaries, and their machinations against me all the day long!
| اُنْظُرْ إِلَى جُلُوسِهِمْ وَوُقُوفِهِمْ، أَنَا أُغْنِيَتُهُمْ! | ٦٣ 63 |
Behold their sitting down and their rising up! I am their song.
| رُدَّ لَهُمْ جَزَاءً يَارَبُّ حَسَبَ عَمَلِ أَيَادِيهِمْ. | ٦٤ 64 |
Render to them a recompense, O Jehovah, according to the work of their hands!
| أَعْطِهِمْ غِشَاوَةَ قَلْبٍ، لَعْنَتَكَ لَهُمْ. | ٦٥ 65 |
Give them blindness of mind! thy curse be upon them!
| اِتْبَعْ بِٱلْغَضَبِ وَأَهْلِكْهُمْ مِنْ تَحْتِ سَمَاوَاتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٦٦ 66 |
Pursue them in thine anger, and destroy them from under Jehovah's heaven!
