< هُوشَع 13 >
لَمَّا تَكَلَّمَ أَفْرَايِمُ بِرَعْدَةٍ، تَرَفَّعَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَلَمَّا أَثِمَ بِبَعْلٍ مَاتَ. | ١ 1 |
According to the word of Ephraim he adopted ordinances for himself in Israel; and he established them for Baal, and died.
وَٱلْآنَ يَزْدَادُونَ خَطِيَّةً، وَيَصْنَعُونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ تَمَاثِيلَ مَسْبُوكَةً مِنْ فِضَّتِهِمْ، أَصْنَامًا بِحَذَاقَتِهِمْ، كُلُّهَا عَمَلُ ٱلصُّنَّاعِ. عَنْهَا هُمْ يَقُولُونَ: «ذَابِحُو ٱلنَّاسِ يُقَبِّلُونَ ٱلْعُجُولَ». | ٢ 2 |
And now they have sinned increasingly, and have made for themselves a molten image of their silver, according to the fashion of idols, the work of artificers accomplished for them: they say, Sacrifice men, for the calves have come to an end.
لِذَلِكَ يَكُونُونَ كَسَحَابِ ٱلصُّبْحِ، وَكَالنَّدَى ٱلْمَاضِي بَاكِرًا. كَعُصَافَةٍ تُخْطَفُ مِنَ ٱلْبَيْدَرِ، وَكَدُخَانٍ مِنَ ٱلْكُوَّةِ. | ٣ 3 |
Therefore shall they be as a morning cloud, and as the early dew that passes away, as chaff blown away from the threshing floor, and as a vapor from tears.
«وَأَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَإِلَهًا سُوَايَ لَسْتَ تَعْرِفُ، وَلَا مُخَلِّصَ غَيْرِي. | ٤ 4 |
But I am the Lord your God that establishes the heaven, and creates the earth, whose hands have framed the whole host of heaven: but I showed them not to you that you should go after them: and I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and you shall know no God but me; and there is no Saviour beside me.
أَنَا عَرَفْتُكَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْعَطَشِ. | ٥ 5 |
I tended you as a shepherd in the wilderness, in an uninhabited land.
لَمَّا رَعَوْا شَبِعُوا. شَبِعُوا وَٱرْتَفَعَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ، لِذَلِكَ نَسُونِي. | ٦ 6 |
According to their pastures, so they were completely filled; and their hearts were exalted; therefore they forgot me.
«فَأَكُونُ لَهُمْ كَأَسَدٍ. أَرْصُدُ عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقِ كَنَمِرٍ. | ٧ 7 |
And I will be to them as a panther, and as a leopard.
أَصْدِمُهُمْ كَدُبَّةٍ مُثْكِلٍ، وَأَشُقُّ شَغَافَ قَلْبِهِمْ، وَآكُلُهُمْ هُنَاكَ كَلَبْوَةٍ. يُمَزِّقُهُمْ وَحْشُ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ. | ٨ 8 |
I will meet them by the way of the Assyrians, as a she-bear excited, and I will rend the caul of their heart, and the lions' whelps of the thicket shall devour them there; the wild beasts of the field shall rend them in pieces.
«هَلَاكُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ أَنَّكَ عَلَيَّ، عَلَى عَوْنِكَ. | ٩ 9 |
O Israel, who will aid [you] in your destruction?
فَأَيْنَ هُوَ مَلِكُكَ حَتَّى يُخَلِّصَكَ فِي جَمِيعِ مُدُنِكَ؟ وَقُضَاتُكَ حَيْثُ قُلْتَ: أَعْطِنِي مَلِكًا وَرُؤَسَاءَ؟ | ١٠ 10 |
Where is this your king? let him even save you in all your cities: let him judge you, of whom you said, Give me a king and a prince.
أَنَا أَعْطَيْتُكَ مَلِكًا بِغَضَبِي وَأَخَذْتُهُ بِسَخَطِي. | ١١ 11 |
And I gave you a king in mine anger, and kept [him] back in my wrath.
«إِثْمُ أَفْرَايِمَ مَصْرُورٌ. خَطِيَّتُهُ مَكْنُوزَةٌ. | ١٢ 12 |
Ephraim [has framed] a conspiracy of unrighteousness, his sin is hidden.
مَخَاضُ ٱلْوَالِدَةِ يَأْتِي عَلَيْهِ. هُوَ ٱبْنٌ غَيْرُ حَكِيمٍ، إِذْ لَمْ يَقِفْ فِي ٱلْوَقْتِ فِي مَوْلِدِ ٱلْبَنِينَ. | ١٣ 13 |
Pains as of a woman in travail shall come upon him: he is your wise son, because he shall not stay in the destruction of [your] children.
«مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ أَفْدِيهِمْ. مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ أُخَلِّصُهُمْ. أَيْنَ أَوْبَاؤُكَ يَا مَوْتُ؟ أَيْنَ شَوْكَتُكِ يَا هَاوِيَةُ؟ تَخْتَفِي ٱلنَّدَامَةُ عَنْ عَيْنَيَّ». (Sheol ) | ١٤ 14 |
I will deliver [them] out of the power of Hades, and will redeem them from death: where is your penalty, O death? O Hades, where is your sting? comfort is hidden from mine eyes. (Sheol )
وَإِنْ كَانَ مُثْمِرًا بَيْنَ إِخْوَةٍ، تَأْتِي رِيحٌ شَرْقِيَّةٌ، رِيحُ ٱلرَّبِّ طَالِعَةً مِنَ ٱلْقَفْرِ فَتَجِفُّ عَيْنُهُ وَيَيْبَسُ يَنْبُوعُهُ. هِيَ تَنْهَبُ كَنْزَ كُلِّ مَتَاعٍ شَهِيٍّ. | ١٥ 15 |
Forasmuch as he will cause a division among [his] brethren, the Lord shall bring upon him an east wind from the desert, and shall dry up his veins [and] quite drain his fountains: he shall dry up his land, and [spoil] all his precious vessels.
تُجَازَى ٱلسَّامِرَةُ لِأَنَّهَا قَدْ تَمَرَّدَتْ عَلَى إِلَهِهَا. بِٱلسَّيْفِ يَسْقُطُونَ. تُحَطَّمُ أَطْفَالُهُمْ، وَٱلْحَوَامِلُ تُشَقُّ. | ١٦ 16 |
Samaria shall be utterly destroyed: for she has resisted her God; they shall fall by the sword, and their sucklings shall be dashed against the ground, and their women with child ripped up.
