اَلْعَدَد 14
| فَرَفَعَتْ كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ صَوْتَهَا وَصَرَخَتْ، وَبَكَى ٱلشَّعْبُ تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةَ. | ١ 1 |
Wherefore the whole multitude crying wept that night.
| وَتَذَمَّرَ عَلَى مُوسَى وَعَلَى هَارُونَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَقَالَ لَهُمَا كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ: «لَيْتَنَا مُتْنَا فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، أَوْ لَيْتَنَا مُتْنَا فِي هَذَا ٱلْقَفْرِ! | ٢ 2 |
And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron, saying:
| وَلِمَاذَا أَتَى بِنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ لِنَسْقُطَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ؟ تَصِيرُ نِسَاؤُنَا وَأَطْفَالُنَا غَنِيمَةً. أَلَيْسَ خَيْرًا لَنَا أَنْ نَرْجِعَ إِلَى مِصْرَ؟» | ٣ 3 |
Would God that we had died in Egypt and would God we may die in this vast wilderness, and that the Lord may not bring us into this land, lest we fall by the sword, and our wives and children be led away captives. Is it not better to return into Egypt?
| فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «نُقِيمُ رَئِيسًا وَنَرْجِعُ إِلَى مِصْرَ». | ٤ 4 |
And they said one to another: Let us appoint a captain, and let us return into Egypt.
| فَسَقَطَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ عَلَى وَجْهَيْهِمَا أَمَامَ كُلِّ مَعْشَرِ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٥ 5 |
And when Moses and Aaron heard this, they fell down flat upon the ground before the multitude of the children of Israel.
| وَيَشُوعُ بْنُ نُونَ وَكَالِبُ بْنُ يَفُنَّةَ، مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ تَجَسَّسُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ، مَزَّقَا ثِيَابَهُمَا | ٦ 6 |
But Josue the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephone, who themselves also had viewed the land, rent their garments,
| وَكَلَّمَا كُلَّ جَمَاعَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلَيْنِ: «ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي مَرَرْنَا فِيهَا لِنَتَجَسَّسَهَا ٱلأَرْضُ جَيِّدَةٌ جِدًّا جِدًّا. | ٧ 7 |
And said to all the multitude of the children of Israel: The land which we have gone round is very good:
| إِنْ سُرَّ بِنَا ٱلرَّبُّ يُدْخِلْنَا إِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَيُعْطِينَا إِيَّاهَا، أَرْضًا تَفِيضُ لَبَنًا وَعَسَلًا. | ٨ 8 |
If the Lord be favourable, he will bring us into it, and give us a land flowing with milk and honey.
| إِنَّمَا لَا تَتَمَرَّدُوا عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلَا تَخَافُوا مِنْ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ لِأَنَّهُمْ خُبْزُنَا. قَدْ زَالَ عَنْهُمْ ظِلُّهُمْ، وَٱلرَّبُّ مَعَنَا. لَا تَخَافُوهُمْ». | ٩ 9 |
Be not rebellious against the Lord: and fear ye not the people of this land, for we are able to eat them up as bread. All aid is gone from them: the Lord is with us, fear ye not.
| وَلَكِنْ قَالَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ أَنْ يُرْجَمَا بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ. ثُمَّ ظَهَرَ مَجْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ لِكُلِّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٠ 10 |
And when all the multitude cried out, and would have stoned them, the glory of the Lord appeared over the tabernacle of the covenant to all the children of Israel.
| وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى: «حَتَّى مَتَى يُهِينُنِي هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبُ؟ وَحَتَّى مَتَى لَا يُصَدِّقُونَنِي بِجَمِيعِ ٱلْآيَاتِ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلْتُ فِي وَسَطِهِمْ؟ | ١١ 11 |
And the Lord said to Moses: How long will this people detract me? how long will they not believe me for all the signs that I have wrought before them?
| إِنِّي أَضْرِبُهُمْ بِٱلْوَبَإِ وَأُبِيدُهُمْ، وَأُصَيِّرُكَ شَعْبًا أَكْبَرَ وَأَعْظَمَ مِنْهُمْ». | ١٢ 12 |
I will strike them therefore with pestilence, and will consume them: but thee I will make a ruler over a great nation, and a mightier than this is.
| فَقَالَ مُوسَى لِلرَّبِّ: «فَيَسْمَعُ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَصْعَدْتَ بِقُوَّتِكَ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ مِنْ وَسَطِهِمْ، | ١٣ 13 |
And Moses said to the Lord: That the Egyptians, from the midst of whom thou hast brought forth this people,
| وَيَقُولُونَ لِسُكَّانِ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّذِينَ قَدْ سَمِعُوا أَنَّكَ يَا رَبُّ فِي وَسَطِ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ، ٱلَّذِينَ أَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ قَدْ ظَهَرْتَ لَهُمْ عَيْنًا لِعَيْنٍ، وَسَحَابَتُكَ وَاقِفَةٌ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَأَنْتَ سَائِرٌ أَمَامَهُمْ بِعَمُودِ سَحَابٍ نَهَارًا وَبِعَمُودِ نَارٍ لَيْلًا. | ١٤ 14 |
And the inhabitants of this land, (who have heard that thou, O Lord, art among this people, and art seen face to face, and thy cloud protecteth them, and thou goest before them in a pillar of a cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night, )
| فَإِنْ قَتَلْتَ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ كَرَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ، يَتَكَلَّمُ ٱلشُّعُوبُ ٱلَّذِينَ سَمِعُوا بِخَبَرِكَ قَائِلِينَ: | ١٥ 15 |
May hear that thou hast killed so great a multitude as it were one man and may say:
| لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ لَمْ يَقْدِرْ أَنْ يُدْخِلَ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفَ لَهُمْ، قَتَلَهُمْ فِي ٱلْقَفْرِ. | ١٦ 16 |
He could not bring the people into the land for which he had sworn, therefore did he kill them in the wilderness.
| فَٱلْآنَ لِتَعْظُمْ قُدْرَةُ سَيِّدِي كَمَا تَكَلَّمْتَ قَائِلًا: | ١٧ 17 |
Let their the strength of the Lord be magnified, as thou hast sworn, saying:
| ٱلرَّبُّ طَوِيلُ ٱلرُّوحِ كَثِيرُ ٱلْإِحْسَانِ، يَغْفِرُ ٱلذَّنْبَ وَٱلسَّيِّئَةَ، لَكِنَّهُ لَا يُبْرِئُ. بَلْ يَجْعَلُ ذَنْبَ ٱلْآبَاءِ عَلَى ٱلْأَبْنَاءِ إِلَى ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلثَّالِثِ وَٱلرَّابِعِ. | ١٨ 18 |
The Lord is patient and full of mercy, taking away iniquity and wickedness, and leaving no man clear, who visitest the sins of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.
| اِصْفَحْ عَنْ ذَنْبِ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ كَعَظَمَةِ نِعْمَتِكَ، وَكَمَا غَفَرْتَ لِهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنْ مِصْرَ إِلَى هَهُنَا». | ١٩ 19 |
Forgive, I beseech thee, the sins of this people, according to the greatness of thy mercy, as thou hast been merciful to them from their going out of Egypt unto this place.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «قَدْ صَفَحْتُ حَسَبَ قَوْلِكَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And the Lord said: I have forgiven according to thy word.
| وَلَكِنْ حَيٌّ أَنَا فَتُمْلَأُ كُلُّ ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ مَجْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ، | ٢١ 21 |
As I live: and the whole earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.
| إِنَّ جَمِيعَ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ رَأَوْا مَجْدِي وَآيَاتِي ٱلَّتِي عَمِلْتُهَا فِي مِصْرَ وَفِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَجَرَّبُونِي ٱلْآنَ عَشَرَ مَرَّاتٍ، وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِقَوْلِي، | ٢٢ 22 |
But yet all the men that have seen my majesty, and the signs that I have done in Egypt, and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now ten times, and have not obeyed my voice,
| لَنْ يَرَوْا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفْتُ لِآبَائِهِمْ. وَجَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ أَهَانُونِي لَا يَرَوْنَهَا. | ٢٣ 23 |
Shall not see the land for which I aware to their fathers, neither shall any one of them that hath detracted me behold it.
| وَأَمَّا عَبْدِي كَالِبُ فَمِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ كَانَتْ مَعَهُ رُوحٌ أُخْرَى، وَقَدِ ٱتَّبَعَنِي تَمَامًا، أُدْخِلُهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي ذَهَبَ إِلَيْهَا، وَزَرْعُهُ يَرِثُهَا. | ٢٤ 24 |
My servant Caleb, who being full of another spirit hath followed me, I will bring into this land which he hath gone round: and his seed shall possess it.
| وَإِذِ ٱلْعَمَالِقَةُ وَٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ سَاكِنُونَ فِي ٱلْوَادِي، فَٱنْصَرِفُوا غَدًا وَٱرْتَحِلُوا إِلَى ٱلْقَفْرِ فِي طَرِيقِ بَحْرِ سُوفَ». | ٢٥ 25 |
For the Amalecite and the Chanaanite dwell in the valleys. Tomorrow remove the camp, and return into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea.
| وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ قَائِلًا: | ٢٦ 26 |
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
| «حَتَّى مَتَى أَغْفِرُ لِهَذِهِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ ٱلشِّرِّيرَةِ ٱلْمُتَذَمِّرَةِ عَلَيَّ؟ قَدْ سَمِعْتُ تَذَمُّرَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي يَتَذَمَّرُونَهُ عَلَيَّ. | ٢٧ 27 |
How long doth this wicked multitude murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel.
| قُلْ لَهُمْ: حَيٌّ أَنَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لَأَفْعَلَنَّ بِكُمْ كَمَا تَكَلَّمْتُمْ فِي أُذُنَيَّ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Say therefore to them: As I live, saith the Lord: According as you have spoken in my hearing, so will I do to you.
| فِي هَذَا ٱلْقَفْرِ تَسْقُطُ جُثَثُكُمْ، جَمِيعُ ٱلْمَعْدُودِينَ مِنْكُمْ حَسَبَ عَدَدِكُمْ مِنِ ٱبْنِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فَصَاعِدًا ٱلَّذِينَ تَذَمَّرُوا عَلَيَّ. | ٢٩ 29 |
In the wilderness shall your carcasses lie. All you that were numbered from twenty years old and upward, and have murmured against me,
| لَنْ تَدْخُلُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي رَفَعْتُ يَدِي لِأُسْكِنَنَّكُمْ فِيهَا، مَا عَدَا كَالِبَ بْنَ يَفُنَّةَ وَيَشُوعَ بْنَ نُونٍ. | ٣٠ 30 |
Shall not enter into the land, over which I lifted up my bend to make you dwell therein, except Caleb the son of Jephone, and Josue the son of Nun.
| وَأَمَّا أَطْفَالُكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ قُلْتُمْ يَكُونُونَ غَنِيمَةً فَإِنِّي سَأُدْخِلُهُمْ، فَيَعْرِفُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي ٱحْتَقَرْتُمُوهَا. | ٣١ 31 |
But your children, of whom you said, that they should be a prey to the enemies, will I bring in: that they may see the land which you have despised.
| فَجُثَثُكُمْ أَنْتُمْ تَسْقُطُ فِي هَذَا ٱلْقَفْرِ، | ٣٢ 32 |
Your carcasses shall lie in the wilderness.
| وَبَنُوكُمْ يَكُونُونَ رُعَاةً فِي ٱلْقَفْرِ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، وَيَحْمِلُونَ فُجُورَكُمْ حَتَّى تَفْنَى جُثَثُكُمْ فِي ٱلْقَفْرِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
Your children shall wander in the desert forty years, and shall bear your fornication, until the carcasses of their fathers be consumed ill the desert,
| كَعَدَدِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي تَجَسَّسْتُمْ فِيهَا ٱلْأَرْضَ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا، لِلسَّنَةِ يَوْمٌ. تَحْمِلُونَ ذُنُوبَكُمْ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً فَتَعْرِفُونَ ٱبْتِعَادِي. | ٣٤ 34 |
According to the number of the forty days, wherein you viewed the land: year shall be counted for a day. And forty years you shall receive your iniquities, and shall know my revenge:
| أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ قَدْ تَكَلَّمْتُ. لَأَفْعَلَنَّ هَذَا بِكُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ ٱلشِّرِّيرَةِ ٱلْمُتَّفِقَةِ عَلَيَّ. فِي هَذَا ٱلْقَفْرِ يَفْنَوْنَ، وَفِيهِ يَمُوتُونَ». | ٣٥ 35 |
For as I have spoken, so will I do to all this wicked multitude, that hath risen up together against me: in this wilderness shall it faint away and die.
| أَمَّا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ أَرْسَلَهُمْ مُوسَى لِيَتَجَسَّسُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ، وَرَجَعُوا وَسَجَّسُوا عَلَيْهِ كُلَّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ بِإِشَاعَةِ ٱلْمَذَمَّةِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، | ٣٦ 36 |
Therefore all the men, whom Moses had sent to view the land, and who at their return had made the whole multitude to murmur against him, speaking ill of the land that it was naught,
| فَمَاتَ ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ أَشَاعُوا ٱلْمَذَمَّةَ ٱلرَّدِيئَةَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ بِٱلْوَبَإِ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٣٧ 37 |
Died and were struck in the sight of the Lord.
| وَأَمَّا يَشُوعُ بْنُ نُونَ وَكَالِبُ بْنُ يَفُنَّةَ، مِنْ أُولَئِكَ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ ذَهَبُوا لِيَتَجَسَّسُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ، فَعَاشَا. | ٣٨ 38 |
But Josue. the son of Nun. and Caleb the son of Jephone lived, of all them that had gone to view the land.
| وَلَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ مُوسَى بِهَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ إِلَى جَمِيعِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بَكَى ٱلشَّعْبُ جِدًّا. | ٣٩ 39 |
And Moses spoke all these words to all the children of Israel, and the people mourned exceedingly.
| ثُمَّ بَكَّرُوا صَبَاحًا وَصَعِدُوا إِلَى رَأْسِ ٱلْجَبَلِ قَائِلِينَ: «هُوَذَا نَحْنُ! نَصْعَدُ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْهُ، فَإِنَّنَا قَدْ أَخْطَأْنَا». | ٤٠ 40 |
And behold rising up very early in the morning, they went up to the top of the mountain, and said: We are ready to go up to the place, of which the Lord hath spoken: for we have sinned.
| فَقَالَ مُوسَى: «لِمَاذَا تَتَجَاوَزُونَ قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ؟ فَهَذَا لَا يَنْجَحُ. | ٤١ 41 |
And Moses said to them: Why transgress you the word of the Lord, which shall not succeed prosperously with you?
| لَا تَصْعَدُوا، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ لَيْسَ فِي وَسَطِكُمْ لِئَلَّا تَنْهَزِمُوا أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِكُمْ. | ٤٢ 42 |
Go not up, for the Lord is not with you: lest you fall before your enemies.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلْعَمَالِقَةَ وَٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ هُنَاكَ قُدَّامَكُمْ تَسْقُطُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. إِنَّكُمْ قَدِ ٱرْتَدَدْتُمْ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَٱلرَّبُّ لَا يَكُونُ مَعَكُمْ». | ٤٣ 43 |
The Amalecite and the Chanaanite are before you, and by their sword you shall fall, because you would not consent to the Lord, neither will the Lord be with you.
| لَكِنَّهُمْ تَجَبَّرُوا وَصَعِدُوا إِلَى رَأْسِ ٱلْجَبَلِ. وَأَمَّا تَابُوتُ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَمُوسَى فَلَمْ يَبْرَحَا مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ. | ٤٤ 44 |
But they being blinded went up to the top of the mountain. But the ark of the testament of the Lord and Moses departed not from the camp.
| فَنَزَلَ ٱلْعَمَالِقَةُ وَٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْجَبَلِ وَضَرَبُوهُمْ وَكَسَّرُوهُمْ إِلَى حُرْمَةَ. | ٤٥ 45 |
And the Amalecite came down, and the Chanaanite that dwelt in the mountain: and smiting and slaying them pursued them as far as Horma.
