< اَلتَّثْنِيَة 12 >

«هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْفَرَائِضُ وَٱلْأَحْكَامُ ٱلَّتِي تَحْفَظُونَ لِتَعْمَلُوهَا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ آبَائِكَ لِتَمْتَلِكَهَا، كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي تَحْيَوْنَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ: ١ 1
These are the statutes and the decrees that you will keep in the land that Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess, all the days that you live on the earth.
تُخْرِبُونَ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَمَاكِنِ حَيْثُ عَبَدَتِ ٱلْأُمَمُ ٱلَّتِي تَرِثُونَهَا آلِهَتَهَا عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلشَّامِخَةِ، وَعَلَى ٱلتِّلَالِ، وَتَحْتَ كُلِّ شَجَرَةٍ خَضْرَاءَ. ٢ 2
You will surely destroy all the places where the nations that you will dispossess worshiped their gods, on the high mountains, on the hills, and under every green tree.
وَتَهْدِمُونَ مَذَابِحَهُمْ، وَتُكَسِّرُونَ أَنْصَابَهُمْ، وَتُحْرِقُونَ سَوَارِيَهُمْ بِٱلنَّارِ، وَتُقَطِّعُونَ تَمَاثِيلَ آلِهَتِهِمْ، وَتَمْحُونَ ٱسْمَهُمْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَكَانِ. ٣ 3
You must break down their altars, dash in pieces their stone pillars, and burn their Asherah poles. You must cut down the carved figures of their gods and destroy their name out of that place.
لَا تَفْعَلُوا هَكَذَا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ. ٤ 4
You will not worship Yahweh your God like that.
بَلِ ٱلْمَكَانُ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِكُمْ لِيَضَعَ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ، سُكْنَاهُ تَطْلُبُونَ وَإِلَى هُنَاكَ تَأْتُونَ، ٥ 5
But to the place that Yahweh your God will choose out of all your tribes to put his name, that will be the place where he lives, and it is there that you will go.
وَتُقَدِّمُونَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ: مُحْرَقَاتِكُمْ وَذَبَائِحَكُمْ وَعُشُورَكُمْ وَرَفَائِعَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَنُذُورَكُمْ وَنَوَافِلَكُمْ وَأَبْكَارَ بَقَرِكُمْ وَغَنَمِكُمْ، ٦ 6
It is there that you will bring your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, and the offerings presented by your hand, your offerings for vows, your freewill offerings, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks.
وَتَأْكُلُونَ هُنَاكَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَتَفْرَحُونَ بِكُلِّ مَا تَمْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِ أَيْدِيكُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَبُيُوتُكُمْ كَمَا بَارَكَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. ٧ 7
It is there that you will eat before Yahweh your God and rejoice about everything that you have put your hand to, you and your households, where Yahweh your God has blessed you.
«لَا تَعْمَلُوا حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا نَحْنُ عَامِلُونَ هُنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، أَيْ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مَهْمَا صَلَحَ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ. ٨ 8
You will not do all the things that we are doing here today; now everyone is doing whatever is right in his own eyes;
لِأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَدْخُلُوا حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ إِلَى ٱلْمَقَرِّ وَٱلنَّصِيبِ ٱللَّذَيْنِ يُعْطِيكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ. ٩ 9
for you have not yet come to the rest, to the inheritance that Yahweh your God is giving you.
فَمَتَى عَبَرْتُمُ ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ وَسَكَنْتُمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي يَقْسِمُهَا لَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ، وَأَرَاحَكُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ حَوَالَيْكُمْ وَسَكَنْتُمْ آمِنِينَ، ١٠ 10
But when you go over the Jordan and live in the land that Yahweh your God is causing you to inherit, and he will give you rest from all your enemies round about, so that you live in safety.
فَٱلْمَكَانُ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ لِيُحِلَّ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ، تَحْمِلُونَ إِلَيْهِ كُلَّ مَا أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ: مُحْرَقَاتِكُمْ وَذَبَائِحَكُمْ وَعُشُورَكُمْ وَرَفَائِعَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَكُلَّ خِيَارِ نُذُورِكُمُ ٱلَّتِي تَنْذُرُونَهَا لِلرَّبِّ. ١١ 11
Then to the place where Yahweh your God will choose to cause his name to live there—there you will bring everything I command you: your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, and the offerings presented by your hand, and all your choice offerings for vows that you will vow to Yahweh.
وَتَفْرَحُونَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ أَنْتُمْ وَبَنُوكُمْ وَبَنَاتُكُمْ وَعَبِيدُكُمْ وَإِمَاؤُكُمْ، وَٱللَّاوِيُّ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَبْوَابِكُمْ لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ قِسْمٌ وَلَا نَصِيبٌ مَعَكُمْ. ١٢ 12
You will rejoice before Yahweh your God—you, your sons, your daughters, your male servants, your female servants, and the Levites who are within your gate, because he has no portion or inheritance among you.
«اِحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تُصْعِدَ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ تَرَاهُ. ١٣ 13
Pay attention to yourself that you do not offer your burnt offerings at every place that you see;
بَلْ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي أَحَدِ أَسْبَاطِكَ. هُنَاكَ تُصْعِدُ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ، وَهُنَاكَ تَعْمَلُ كُلَّ مَا أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهِ. ١٤ 14
but it is at the place that Yahweh will choose among one of your tribes that you will offer your burnt offerings, and there you will do everything that I command you.
وَلَكِنْ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا تَشْتَهِي نَفْسُكَ تَذْبَحُ وَتَأْكُلُ لَحْمًا فِي جَمِيعِ أَبْوَابِكَ، حَسَبَ بَرَكَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ. ٱلنَّجِسُ وَٱلطَّاهِرُ يَأْكُلَانِهِ كَٱلظَّبْيِ وَٱلْإِيَّلِ. ١٥ 15
However, you may kill and eat animals within all your gates, as you wish, receiving the blessing of Yahweh your God for all that he has given you; the unclean and the clean persons both may eat of it, animals such as the gazelle and the deer.
وَأَمَّا ٱلدَّمُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْهُ. عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَسْفِكُهُ كَٱلْمَاءِ. ١٦ 16
But you will not eat the blood; you will pour it out on the earth like water.
لَا يَحِلُّ لَكَ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ فِي أَبْوَابِكَ عُشْرَ حِنْطَتِكَ وَخَمْرِكَ وَزَيْتِكَ، وَلَا أَبْكَارَ بَقَرِكَ وَغَنَمِكَ، وَلَا شَيْئًا مِنْ نُذُورِكَ ٱلَّتِي تَنْذُرُ، وَنَوَافِلِكَ وَرَفَائِعِ يَدِكَ. ١٧ 17
You may not eat within your gates from the tithe of your grain, your new wine, your oil, or the firstborn of your herd or flock; and you may not eat any of the meat you sacrifice along with any of your vows that you make, nor that of your freewill offerings, nor that of the offering you present with your hand.
بَلْ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ تَأْكُلُهَا فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، أَنْتَ وَٱبْنُكَ وَٱبْنَتُكَ وَعَبْدُكَ وَأَمَتُكَ وَٱللَّاوِيُّ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَبْوَابِكَ، وَتَفْرَحُ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ بِكُلِّ مَا ٱمْتَدَّتْ إِلَيْهِ يَدُكَ. ١٨ 18
Instead, you will eat them before Yahweh your God in the place that Yahweh your God will choose—you, your son, your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, and the Levite who is within your gates; you will rejoice before Yahweh your God about everything to which you put your hand.
اِحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تَتْرُكَ ٱللَّاوِيَّ، كُلَّ أَيَّامِكَ عَلَى أَرْضِكَ. ١٩ 19
Pay attention to yourself so that you do not forsake the Levite as long as you live on your land.
«إِذَا وَسَّعَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ تُخُومَكَ كَمَا كَلَّمَكَ وَقُلْتَ: آكُلُ لَحْمًا، لِأَنَّ نَفْسَكَ تَشْتَهِي أَنْ تَأْكُلَ لَحْمًا. فَمِنْ كُلِّ مَا تَشْتَهِي نَفْسُكَ تَأْكُلُ لَحْمًا. ٢٠ 20
When Yahweh your God enlarges your borders, as he has promised you, and you say, 'I will eat flesh,' because of your desire to eat meat, you may eat meat, as your soul desires.
إِذَا كَانَ ٱلْمَكَانُ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ لِيَضَعَ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهِ بَعِيدًا عَنْكَ، فَٱذْبَحْ مِنْ بَقَرِكَ وَغَنَمِكَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ كَمَا أَوْصَيْتُكَ، وَكُلْ فِي أَبْوَابِكَ مِنْ كُلِّ مَا ٱشْتَهَتْ نَفْسُكَ. ٢١ 21
If the place that Yahweh your God chooses to put his name is too far from you, then you will kill some of your herd and your flock that Yahweh has given you, as I have commanded you; you may eat within your gates, as your soul desires.
كَمَا يُؤْكَلُ ٱلظَّبْيُ وَٱلْإِيَّلُ هَكَذَا تَأْكُلُهُ. ٱلنَّجِسُ وَٱلطَّاهِرُ يَأْكُلَانِهِ سَوَاءً. ٢٢ 22
Like the gazelle and the deer are eaten, so you will eat of it; the unclean and the clean persons may eat of it alike.
لَكِنِ ٱحْتَرِزْ أَنْ لَا تَأْكُلَ ٱلدَّمَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلدَّمَ هُوَ ٱلنَّفْسُ. فَلَا تَأْكُلِ ٱلنَّفْسَ مَعَ ٱللَّحْمِ. ٢٣ 23
Only be sure that you do not consume the blood, for the blood is the life; you will not eat the life with the meat.
لَا تَأْكُلْهُ. عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَسْفِكُهُ كَٱلْمَاءِ. ٢٤ 24
You will not eat it; you will pour it out on the earth like water.
لَا تَأْكُلْهُ لِكَيْ يَكُونَ لَكَ وَلِأَوْلَادِكَ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ خَيْرٌ، إِذَا عَمِلْتَ ٱلْحَقَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢٥ 25
You will not eat it, so that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, when you will do what is right in the eyes of Yahweh.
وَأَمَّا أَقْدَاسُكَ ٱلَّتِي لَكَ وَنُذُورُكَ، فَتَحْمِلُهَا وَتَذْهَبُ إِلَى ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٦ 26
But the things that belong to Yahweh that you have and the offerings for your vows—you will take these and go to the place that Yahweh chooses.
فَتَعْمَلُ مُحْرَقَاتِكَ: ٱللَّحْمَ وَٱلدَّمَ عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. وَأَمَّا ذَبَائِحُكَ فَيُسْفَكُ دَمُهَا عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، وَٱللَّحْمُ تَأْكُلُهُ. ٢٧ 27
There you will offer your burnt offerings, the meat and the blood, on the altar of Yahweh your God; the blood of your sacrifices will be poured out on the altar of Yahweh your God, and you will eat the flesh.
اِحْفَظْ وَٱسْمَعْ جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ ٱلْكَلِمَاتِ ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَا لِكَيْ يَكُونَ لَكَ وَلِأَوْلَادِكَ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ خَيْرٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، إِذَا عَمِلْتَ ٱلصَّالِحَ وَٱلْحَقَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. ٢٨ 28
Observe and listen to all these words that I command you, that it may go well with you and with your children after you forever, when you do what is good and right in the eyes of Yahweh your God.
«مَتَى قَرَضَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ ٱلْأُمَمَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَنْتَ ذَاهِبٌ إِلَيْهِمْ لِتَرِثَهُمْ، وَوَرِثْتَهُمْ وَسَكَنْتَ أَرْضَهُمْ، ٢٩ 29
When Yahweh your God cuts off the nations from before you, when you go in to dispossess them, and you dispossess them, and live in their land,
فَٱحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ تُصَادَ وَرَاءَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا بَادُوا مِنْ أَمَامِكَ، وَمِنْ أَنْ تَسْأَلَ عَنْ آلِهَتِهِمْ قَائِلًا: كَيْفَ عَبَدَ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْأُمَمُ آلِهَتَهُمْ، فَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَفْعَلُ هَكَذَا؟ ٣٠ 30
pay attention to yourself that you are not trapped into following them, after they are destroyed from before you—trapped into investigating their gods, into asking, 'How do these nations worship their gods? I will do the same.'
لَا تَعْمَلْ هَكَذَا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ عَمِلُوا لِآلِهَتِهِمْ كُلَّ رِجْسٍ لَدَى ٱلرَّبِّ مِمَّا يَكْرَهُهُ، إِذْ أَحْرَقُوا حَتَّى بَنِيهِمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ بِٱلنَّارِ لِآلِهَتِهِمْ. ٣١ 31
You must not worship Yahweh your God in that way, for everything that is an abomination to Yahweh, things that he hates—they have done these with their gods; they even burn their sons and their daughters in fire for their gods.
كُلُّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي أُوصِيكُمْ بِهِ ٱحْرِصُوا لِتَعْمَلُوهُ. لَا تَزِدْ عَلَيْهِ وَلَا تُنَقِّصْ مِنْهُ. ٣٢ 32
Whatever I command you, observe it. Do not add to it or take away from it.
