مِيخَا 7
| وَيْلٌ لِي! لِأَنِّي صِرْتُ كَجَنَى ٱلصَّيْفِ، كَخُصَاصَةِ ٱلْقِطَافِ، لَا عُنْقُودَ لِلْأَكْلِ وَلَا بَاكُورَةَ تِينَةٍ ٱشْتَهَتْهَا نَفْسِي. | ١ 1 |
Woe is me! I live where the summer fruits are gathered, And the vintage is gleaned; There is no cluster to eat; I long for the first-ripe fig.
| قَدْ بَادَ ٱلتَّقِيُّ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلَيْسَ مُسْتَقِيمٌ بَيْنَ ٱلنَّاسِ. جَمِيعُهُمْ يَكْمُنُونَ لِلدِّمَاءِ، يَصْطَادُونَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا بِشَبَكَةٍ. | ٢ 2 |
The good man is perished from the land, And there is none upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; Every one hunteth his brother with a net.
| اَلْيَدَانِ إِلَى ٱلشَّرِّ مُجْتَهِدَتَانِ. ٱلرَّئِيسُ طَالِبٌ وَٱلْقَاضِي بِٱلْهَدِيَّةِ، وَٱلْكَبِيرُ مُتَكَلِّمٌ بِهَوَى نَفْسِهِ فَيُعَكِّشُونَهَا. | ٣ 3 |
Their hands are diligent for evil; The prince asketh a bribe, And the judge decideth for money! The great man giveth judgment according to his desire; They conspire to pervert justice.
| أَحْسَنُهُمْ مِثْلُ ٱلْعَوْسَجِ، وَأَعْدَلُهُمْ مِنْ سِيَاجِ ٱلشَّوْكِ. يَوْمَ مُرَاقِبِيكَ عِقَابُكَ قَدْ جَاءَ. ٱلْآنَ يَكُونُ ٱرْتِبَاكُهُمْ. | ٤ 4 |
The best of them is like a brier; The most upright of them is sharper than a thorn-hedge. The day of recompense, announced by thy watchmen, cometh; Then shall come their perplexity.
| لَا تَأْتَمِنُوا صَاحِبًا. لَا تَثِقُوا بِصَدِيقٍ. ٱحْفَظْ أَبْوَابَ فَمِكَ عَنِ ٱلْمُضْطَجِعَةِ فِي حِضْنِكَ. | ٥ 5 |
Trust ye not in a friend! Put no confidence in a guide! From her that lieth in thy bosom Keep the doors of thy mouth!
| لِأَنَّ ٱلِٱبْنَ مُسْتَهِينٌ بِٱلْأَبِ، وَٱلْبِنْتَ قَائِمَةٌ عَلَى أُمِّهَا، وَٱلْكَنَّةَ عَلَى حَمَاتِهَا، وَأَعْدَاءُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ أَهْلُ بَيْتِهِ. | ٦ 6 |
For the son dishonoreth his father, The daughter riseth up against her mother, And the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; The inmates of a man's house are his foes.
| وَلَكِنَّنِي أُرَاقِبُ ٱلرَّبَّ، أَصْبِرُ لِإِلَهِ خَلَاصِي. يَسْمَعُنِي إِلَهِي. | ٧ 7 |
I will look to Jehovah; I will hope in the God of my salvation; My God will hear me.
| لَا تَشْمَتِي بِي يَا عَدُوَّتِي، إِذَا سَقَطْتُ أَقُومُ. إِذَا جَلَسْتُ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ فَٱلرَّبُّ نُورٌ لِي. | ٨ 8 |
Rejoice not over me, O my enemy! Though I have fallen, I shall arise; Though I sit in darkness, Jehovah will be my light.
| أَحْتَمِلُ غَضَبَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِأَنِّي أَخْطَأْتُ إِلَيْهِ، حَتَّى يُقِيمَ دَعْوَايَ وَيُجْرِيَ حَقِّي. سَيُخْرِجُنِي إِلَى ٱلنُّورِ، سَأَنْظُرُ بِرَّهُ. | ٩ 9 |
I will bear the indignation of Jehovah, Because I have sinned against him, Until he maintain my cause, and execute judgment for me, Until he bring me to the light, And I behold his mercy.
| وَتَرَى عَدُوَّتِي فَيُغَطِّيهَا ٱلْخِزْيُ، ٱلْقَائِلَةُ لِي: «أَيْنَ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكِ؟» عَيْنَايَ سَتَنْظُرَانِ إِلَيْهَا. اَلْآنَ تَصِيرُ لِلدَّوْسِ كَطِينِ ٱلْأَزِقَّةِ. | ١٠ 10 |
She that is my enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her, That said to me, Where is Jehovah thy God? Mine eyes shall gaze upon her; Soon shall she be trodden down, as the mire of the streets.
| يَوْمَ بِنَاءِ حِيطَانِكِ، ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ يَبْعُدُ ٱلْمِيعَادُ. | ١١ 11 |
The day cometh when thy walls are to be built; In that day shall the decree be far removed.
| هُوَ يَوْمٌ يَأْتُونَ إِلَيْكِ مِنْ أَشُّورَ وَمُدُنِ مِصْرَ، وَمِنْ مِصْرَ إِلَى ٱلنَّهْرِ. وَمِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ. وَمِنَ ٱلْجَبَلِ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ. | ١٢ 12 |
In that day shall they come to thee From Assyria, and the cities of Egypt, And from Egypt to the river, From sea to sea, from mountain to mountain.
| وَلَكِنْ تَصِيرُ ٱلْأَرْضُ خَرِبَةً بِسَبَبِ سُكَّانِهَا، مِنْ أَجْلِ ثَمَرِ أَفْعَالِهِمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
But first the land shall be desolate on account of its inhabitants, For the fruit of their doings.
| اِرْعَ بِعَصَاكَ شَعْبَكَ غَنَمَ مِيرَاثِكَ، سَاكِنَةً وَحْدَهَا فِي وَعْرٍ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْكَرْمَلِ. لِتَرْعَ فِي بَاشَانَ وَجِلْعَادَ كَأَيَّامِ ٱلْقِدَمِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Feed thy people with thy crook, The flock of thine inheritance, That dwell solitarily in the forest in the midst of Carmel! Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
| «كَأَيَّامِ خُرُوجِكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ أُرِيهِ عَجَائِبَ». | ١٥ 15 |
As in the day when thou camest from Egypt, So will I show thee wonders.
| يَنْظُرُ ٱلْأُمَمُ وَيَخْجَلُونَ مِنْ كُلِّ بَطْشِهِمْ. يَضَعُونَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَلَى أَفْوَاهِهِمْ، وَتَصُمُّ آذَانُهُمْ. | ١٦ 16 |
The nations shall see, and be ashamed of all their might: They shall lay their hands upon their mouths; Their ears shall be deaf.
| يَلْحَسُونَ ٱلتُّرَابَ كَٱلْحَيَّةِ، كَزَوَاحِفِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. يَخْرُجُونَ بِٱلرِّعْدَةِ مِنْ حُصُونِهِمْ، يَأْتُونَ بِٱلرُّعْبِ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا وَيَخَافُونَ مِنْكَ. | ١٧ 17 |
They shall lick the dust like the serpent; Like the creeping things of the earth, they shall come trembling from their strongholds; To Jehovah our God shall they come with awe, And shall fear on account of thee.
| مَنْ هُوَ إِلَهٌ مِثْلُكَ غَافِرٌ ٱلْإِثْمَ وَصَافِحٌ عَنِ ٱلذَّنْبِ لِبَقِيَّةِ مِيرَاثِهِ! لَا يَحْفَظُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ غَضَبَهُ، فَإِنَّهُ يُسَرُّ بِٱلرَّأْفَةِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Who is a God like thee, that pardoneth iniquity and passeth by transgression, In the remnant of his inheritance? He retaineth not his anger forever, For he delighteth in mercy.
| يَعُودُ يَرْحَمُنَا، يَدُوسُ آثَامَنَا، وَتُطْرَحُ فِي أَعْمَاقِ ٱلْبَحْرِ جَمِيعُ خَطَايَاهُمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
He will again have compassion on us, He will blot out our iniquities; Yea, thou wilt cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.
| تَصْنَعُ ٱلْأَمَانَةَ لِيَعْقُوبَ وَٱلرَّأْفَةَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ، ٱللَّتَيْنِ حَلَفْتَ لِآبَائِنَا مُنْذُ أَيَّامِ ٱلْقِدَمِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Thou wilt show faithfulness to Jacob, And mercy to Abraham, Which thou swarest to our fathers from the days of old.
