< نَحَمْيَا 8 >

ٱجْتَمَعَ كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ كَرَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى ٱلسَّاحَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَمَامَ بَابِ ٱلْمَاءِ وَقَالُوا لِعَزْرَا ٱلْكَاتِبِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ بِسِفْرِ شَرِيعَةِ مُوسَى ٱلَّتِي أَمَرَ بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ١ 1
All the people gathered themselves together as one man into the square that was before the Water Gate; and they spoke to Ezra the scribe to bring the scroll of the law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded to Israel.
فَأَتَى عَزْرَا ٱلْكَاتِبُ بِٱلشَّرِيعَةِ أَمَامَ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ مِنَ ٱلرِّجَالِ وَٱلنِّسَاءِ وَكُلِّ فَاهِمٍ مَا يُسْمَعُ، فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلسَّابِعِ. ٢ 2
Ezra the priest brought the law before the assembly, both men and women, and all who could hear with understanding, on the first day of the seventh month.
وَقَرَأَ فِيهَا أَمَامَ ٱلسَّاحَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَمَامَ بَابِ ٱلْمَاءِ، مِنَ ٱلصَّبَاحِ إِلَى نِصْفِ ٱلنَّهَارِ، أَمَامَ ٱلرِّجَالِ وَٱلنِّسَاءِ وَٱلْفَاهِمِينَ. وَكَانَتْ آذَانُ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ نَحْوَ سِفْرِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ. ٣ 3
And he read it before the square that was before the Water Gate from early morning until midday, in the presence of the men and the women, and of those who could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive to the scroll of the law.
وَوَقَفَ عَزْرَا ٱلْكَاتِبُ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ ٱلْخَشَبِ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلُوهُ لِهَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ، وَوَقَفَ بِجَانِبِهِ مَتَّثْيَا وَشَمَعُ وَعَنَايَا وَأُورِيَّا وَحِلْقِيَّا وَمَعْسِيَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَدَايَا وَمِيشَائِيلُ وَمَلْكِيَّا وَحَشُومُ وَحَشْبَدَّانَةُ وَزَكَرِيَّا وَمَشُلَّامُ. ٤ 4
Ezra the scribe stood on a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Uriah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchijah, and Hashum, and Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam.
وَفَتَحَ عَزْرَا ٱلسِّفْرَ أَمَامَ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ فَوْقَ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ. وَعِنْدَمَا فَتَحَهُ وَقَفَ كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ. ٥ 5
Ezra opened the scroll in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people; ) and when he opened it, all the people stood up:
وَبَارَكَ عَزْرَا ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلْإِلَهَ ٱلْعَظِيمَ. وَأَجَابَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ: «آمِينَ، آمِينَ!» رَافِعِينَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ، وَخَرُّوا وَسَجَدُوا لِلرَّبِّ عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٦ 6
and Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. All the people answered, "Amen, Amen," with the lifting up of their hands. They bowed their heads, and worshiped the LORD with their faces to the ground.
وَيَشُوعُ وَبَانِي وَشَرَبْيَا وَيَامِينُ وَعَقُّوبُ وَشَبْتَايُ وَهُودِيَّا وَمَعْسِيَا وَقَلِيطَا وَعَزَرْيَا وَيُوزَابَادُ وَحَنَانُ وَفَلَايَا وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ أَفْهَمُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلشَّرِيعَةَ، وَٱلشَّعْبُ فِي أَمَاكِنِهِمْ. ٧ 7
Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, the Levites, explained the law to the people, and the people stayed in their place.
وَقَرَأُوا فِي ٱلسِّفْرِ، فِي شَرِيعَةِ ٱللهِ، بِبَيَانٍ، وَفَسَّرُوا ٱلْمَعْنَى، وَأَفْهَمُوهُمُ ٱلْقِرَاءَةَ. ٨ 8
They read in the scroll, in the law of God, distinctly; and they gave the sense, so that they understood the reading.
وَنَحَمْيَا أَيِ ٱلتِّرْشَاثَا، وَعَزْرَا ٱلْكَاهِنُ ٱلْكَاتِبُ، وَٱللَّاَوِيُّونَ ٱلْمُفْهِمُونَ ٱلشَّعْبَ قَالُوا لِجَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ: «هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمُ مُقَدَّسٌ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، لَا تَنُوحُوا وَلَا تَبْكُوا». لِأَنَّ جَمِيعَ ٱلشَّعْبِ بَكَوْا حِينَ سَمِعُوا كَلَامَ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ. ٩ 9
Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites who taught the people, said to all the people, "This day is holy to the LORD your God. Do not mourn, nor weep." For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.
فَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱذْهَبُوا كُلُوا ٱلسَّمِينَ، وَٱشْرَبُوا ٱلْحُلْوَ، وَٱبْعَثُوا أَنْصِبَةً لِمَنْ لَمْ يُعَدَّ لَهُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْيَوْمَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ مُقَدَّسٌ لِسَيِّدِنَا. وَلَا تَحْزَنُوا، لِأَنَّ فَرَحَ ٱلرَّبِّ هُوَ قُوَّتُكُمْ». ١٠ 10
Then he said to them, "Go your way. Eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not be grieved; for the joy of the LORD is your strength."
وَكَانَ ٱللَّاَوِيُّونَ يُسَكِّتُونَ كُلَّ ٱلشَّعْبِ قَائِلِينَ: «ٱسْكُتُوا، لِأَنَّ ٱلْيَوْمَ مُقَدَّسٌ فَلَا تَحْزَنُوا». ١١ 11
So the Levites stilled all the people, saying, "Hold your peace, for the day is holy; neither be grieved."
فَذَهَبَ كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ لِيَأْكُلُوا وَيَشْرَبُوا وَيَبْعَثُوا أَنْصِبَةً وَيَعْمَلُوا فَرَحًا عَظِيمًا، لِأَنَّهُمْ فَهِمُوا ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي عَلَّمُوهُمْ إِيَّاهُ. ١٢ 12
All the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared to them.
وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّانِي ٱجْتَمَعَ رُؤُوسُ آبَاءِ جَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاَوِيُّونَ إِلَى عَزْرَا ٱلْكَاتِبِ لِيُفْهِمَهُمْ كَلَامَ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ. ١٣ 13
On the second day were gathered together the heads of ancestral houses of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, to Ezra the scribe, even to give attention to the words of the law.
فَوَجَدُوا مَكْتُوبًا فِي ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَمَرَ بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ يَدِ مُوسَى أَنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ يَسْكُنُونَ فِي مَظَالَّ فِي ٱلْعِيدِ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلسَّابِعِ، ١٤ 14
They found written in the law, how that the LORD had commanded by Moses, that the children of Israel should dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh month;
وَأَنْ يُسْمِعُوا وَيُنَادُوا فِي كُلِّ مُدُنِهِمْ وَفِي أُورُشَلِيمَ قَائِلِينَ: «ٱخْرُجُوا إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ وَأْتُوا بِأَغْصَانِ زَيْتُونٍ وَأَغْصَانِ زَيْتُونٍ بَرِّيٍّ وَأَغْصَانِ آسٍ وَأَغْصَانِ نَخْلٍ وَأَغْصَانِ أَشْجَارٍ غَبْيَاءَ لِعَمَلِ مَظَالَّ، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ». ١٥ 15
and that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities, and in Jerusalem, saying, "Go out to the mountain, and get olive branches, and branches of wild olive, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of thick trees, to make booths, as it is written."
فَخَرَجَ ٱلشَّعْبُ وَجَلَبُوا وَعَمِلُوا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ مَظَالَّ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى سَطْحِهِ، وَفِي دُورِهِمْ، وَدُورِ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ، وَفِي سَاحَةِ بَابِ ٱلْمَاءِ، وَفِي سَاحَةِ بَابِ أَفْرَايِمَ. ١٦ 16
So the people went out, and brought them, and made themselves booths, everyone on the roof of his house, and in their courts, and in the courts of God's house, and in the broad place of the Water Gate, and in the broad place of the Ephraim Gate.
وَعَمِلَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ ٱلرَّاجِعِينَ مِنَ ٱلسَّبْيِ مَظَالَّ، وَسَكَنُوا فِي ٱلْمَظَالِّ، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَعْمَلْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ هَكَذَا مِنْ أَيَّامِ يَشُوعَ بْنِ نُونٍ إِلَى ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَكَانَ فَرَحٌ عَظِيمٌ جِدًّا. ١٧ 17
All the assembly of those who had come again out of the captivity made booths, and lived in the booths; for since the days of Jeshua the son of Nun to that day the children of Israel had not done so. There was very great gladness.
وَكَانَ يُقْرَأُ فِي سِفْرِ شَرِيعَةِ ٱللهِ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَخِيرِ. وَعَمِلُوا عِيدًا سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ، وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّامِنِ ٱعْتِكَافٌ حَسَبَ ٱلْمَرْسُومِ. ١٨ 18
Also day by day, from the first day to the last day, he read in the scroll of the law of God. They kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according to the ordinance.
