Jeremiah 32

اَلْكَلِمَةُ الَّتِي صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ الرَّبِّ،فِي السَّنَةِ الْعَاشِرَةِ لِصِدْقِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، هِيَ السَّنَةُ الثَّامِنَةُ عَشَرَةَ لِنَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرَ،

The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar.

وَكَانَ حِينَئِذٍ جَيْشُ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ يُحَاصِرُ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَكَانَ إِرْمِيَا النَّبِيُّ مَحْبُوسًا فِي دَارِ السِّجْنِ الَّذِي فِي بَيْتِ مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا،

For then the king of Babylon's army besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the king of Judah's house.

لأَنَّ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا حَبَسَهُ قَائِلاً: «لِمَاذَا تَنَبَّأْتَ قَائِلاً: هكَذَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ: هأَنَذَا أَدْفَعُ هذِهِ الْمَدِينَةَ لِيَدِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، فَيَأْخُذُهَا؟

For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, Wherefore dost thou prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it;

وَصِدْقِيَّا مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا لاَ يُفْلِتُ مِنْ يَدِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ بَلْ إِنَّمَا يُدْفَعُ لِيَدِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، وَيُكَلِّمُهُ فَمًا لِفَمٍ وَعَيْنَاهُ تَرَيَانِ عَيْنَيْهِ،

And Zedekiah king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but shall surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shall speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall behold his eyes;

وَيَسِيرُ بِصِدْقِيَّا إِلَى بَابِلَ فَيَكُونُ هُنَاكَ حَتَّى أَفْتَقِدَهُ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. إِنْ حَارَبْتُمُ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ لاَ تَنْجَحُونَ».

And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith the LORD: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper.

فَقَالَ إِرْمِيَا: «كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ صَارَتْ إِلَيَّ قَائِلَةً:

And Jeremiah said, The word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

هُوَذَا حَنَمْئِيلُ بْنُ شَلُّومَ عَمِّكَ يَأْتِي إِلَيْكَ قَائِلاً: اشْتَرِ لِنَفْسِكَ حَقْلِي الَّذِي فِي عَنَاثُوثَ، لأَنَّ لَكَ حَقَّ الْفِكَاكِ لِلشِّرَاءِ».

Behold, Hanameel the son of Shallum thine uncle shall come unto thee, saying, Buy thee my field that is in Anathoth: for the right of redemption is thine to buy it.

فَجَاءَ إِلَيَّ حَنَمْئِيلُ ابْنُ عَمِّي حَسَبَ كَلِمَةِ الرَّبِّ إِلَى دَارِ السِّجْنِ، وَقَالَ لِي: «اشْتَرِ حَقْلِي الَّذِي فِي عَنَاثُوثَ الَّذِي فِي أَرْضِ بِنْيَامِينَ، لأَنَّ لَكَ حَقَّ الإِرْثِ، وَلَكَ الْفِكَاكُ. اشْتَرِهِ لِنَفْسِكَ». فَعَرَفْتُ أَنَّهَا كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ.

So Hanameel mine uncle's son came to me in the court of the prison according to the word of the LORD, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the country of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine; buy it for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of the LORD.

فَاشْتَرَيْتُ مِنْ حَنَمْئِيلَ ابْنِ عَمِّي الْحَقْلَ الَّذِي فِي عَنَاثُوثَ، وَوَزَنْتُ لَهُ الْفِضَّةَ، سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ شَاقِلاً مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ.

And I bought the field of Hanameel my uncle's son, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver.

وَكَتَبْتُهُ فِي صَكّ وَخَتَمْتُ وَأَشْهَدْتُ شُهُودًا، وَوَزَنْتُ الْفِضَّةَ بِمَوَازِينَ.

And I subscribed the evidence, and sealed it, and took witnesses, and weighed him the money in the balances.

وَأَخَذْتُ صَكَّ الشِّرَاءِ الْمَخْتُومَ حَسَبَ الْوَصِيَّةِ وَالْفَرِيضَةِ وَالْمَفْتُوحَ.

So I took the evidence of the purchase, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open:

وَسَلَّمْتُ صَكَّ الشِّرَاءِ لِبَارُوخَ بْنِ نِيرِيَّا بْنِ مَحْسِيَا أَمَامَ حَنَمْئِيلَ ابْنِ عَمِّي، وَأَمَامَ الشُّهُودِ الَّذِينَ أَمْضَوْا صَكَّ الشِّرَاءِ أَمَامَ كُلِّ الْيَهُودِ الْجَالِسِينَ فِي دَارِ السِّجْنِ.

And I gave the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle's son, and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.

وَأَوْصَيْتُ بَارُوخَ أَمَامَهُمْ قَائِلاً:

And I charged Baruch before them, saying,

«هكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ الْجُنُودِ إِلهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: خُذْ هذَيْنِ الصَّكَّيْنِ، صَكَّ الشِّرَاءِ هذَا الْمَخْتُومَ، وَالصَّكَّ الْمَفْتُوحَ هذَا، وَاجْعَلْهُمَا فِي إِنَاءٍ مِنْ خَزَفٍ لِكَيْْ يَبْقَيَا أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً.

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Take these evidences, this evidence of the purchase, both which is sealed, and this evidence which is open; and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.

لأَنَّهُ هكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ الْجُنُودِ إِلهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: سَيَشْتَرُونَ بَعْدُ بُيُوتًا وَحُقُولاً وَكُرُومًا فِي هذِهِ الأَرْضِ».

For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Houses and fields and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.

ثُمَّ صَلَّيْتُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ بَعْدَ تَسْلِيمِ صَكِّ الشِّرَاءِ لِبَارُوخَ بْنِ نِيرِيَّا قَائِلاً:

Now when I had delivered the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed unto the LORD, saying,

«آهِ، أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، هَا إِنَّكَ قَدْ صَنَعْتَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ بِقُوَّتِكَ الْعَظِيمَةِ، وَبِذِرَاعِكَ الْمَمْدُودَةِ. لاَ يَعْسُرُ عَلَيْكَ شَيْءٌ.

Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:

صَانِعُ الإِحْسَانِ لأُلُوفٍ، وَمُجَازِي ذَنْبِ الآبَاءِ فِي حِضْنِ بَنِيهِمْ بَعْدَهُمُ، الإِلهُ الْعَظِيمُ الْجَبَّارُ، رَبُّ الْجُنُودِ اسْمُهُ.

Thou shewest lovingkindness unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: the Great, the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts, is his name,

عَظِيمٌ فِي الْمَشُورَةِ، وَقَادِرٌ فِي الْعَمَلِ، الَّذِي عَيْنَاكَ مَفْتُوحَتَانِ عَلَى كُلِّ طُرُقِ بَنِي آدَمَ لِتُعْطِيَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ حَسَبَ طُرُقِهِ، وَحَسَبَ ثَمَرِ أَعْمَالِهِ.

Great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:

الَّذِي جَعَلْتَ آيَاتٍ وَعَجَائِبَ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ إِلَى هذَا الْيَوْمِ، وَفِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفِي النَّاسِ، وَجَعَلْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ اسْمًا كَهذَا الْيَوْمِ،

Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day, and in Israel, and among other men; and hast made thee a name, as at this day;

وَأَخْرَجْتَ شَعْبَكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ بِآيَاتٍ وَعَجَائِبَ، وَبِيَدٍ شَدِيدَةٍ وَذِرَاعٍ مَمْدُودَةٍ وَمَخَافَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ،

And hast brought forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with great terror;

وَأَعْطَيْتَهُمْ هذِهِ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي حَلَفْتَ لآبَائِهِمْ أَنْ تُعْطِيَهُمْ إِيَّاهَا، أَرْضًا تَفِيضُ لَبَنًا وَعَسَلاً.

And hast given them this land, which thou didst swear to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey;

فَأَتَوْا وَامْتَلَكُوهَا، وَلَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِصَوْتِكَ، وَلاَ سَارُوا فِي شَرِيعَتِكَ. كُلُّ مَا أَوْصَيْتَهُمْ أَنْ يَعْمَلُوهُ لَمْ يَعْمَلُوهُ، فَأَوْقَعْتَ بِهِمْ كُلَّ هذَا الشَّرِّ.

And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them:

هَا الْمَتَارِسُ! قَدْ أَتَوْا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ لِيَأْخُذُوهَا، وَقَدْ دُفِعَتِ الْمَدِينَةُ لِيَدِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ يُحَارِبُونَهَا بِسَبَبِ السَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ وَالْوَبَإِ، وَمَا تَكَلَّمْتَ بِهِ فَقَدْ حَدَثَ، وَهَا أَنْتَ نَاظِرٌ.

Behold the mounts, they are come unto the city to take it; and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest it.

وَقَدْ قُلْتَ أَنْتَ لِي أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: اشْتَرِ لِنَفْسِكَ الْحَقْلَ بِفِضَّةٍ وَأَشْهِدْ شُهُودًا، وَقَدْ دُفِعَتِ الْمَدِينَةُ لِيَدِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ».

And thou hast said unto me, O Lord GOD, Buy thee the field for money, and take witnesses; for the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

ثُمَّ صَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا قَائِلَةً:

Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying,

«هأَنَذَا الرَّبُّ إِلهُ كُلِّ ذِي جَسَدٍ. هَلْ يَعْسُرُ عَلَيَّ أَمْرٌ مَا؟

Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

لِذلِكَ هكَذَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ: هأَنَذَا أَدْفَعُ هذِهِ الْمَدِينَةَ لِيَدِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ وَلِيَدِ نَبُوخَذْرَاصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ فَيَأْخُذُهَا.

Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he shall take it:

فَيَأْتِي الْكَلْدَانِيُّونَ الَّذِينَ يُحَارِبُونَ هذِهِ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَيُشْعِلُونَ هذِهِ الْمَدِينَةَ بِالنَّارِ، وَيُحْرِقُونَهَا وَالْبُيُوتَ الَّتِي بَخَّرُوا عَلَى سُطُوحِهَا لِلْبَعْلِ وَسَكَبُوا سَكَائِبَ لآلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى لِيُغِيظُونِي.

And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set fire on this city, and burn it with the houses, upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.

لأَنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَنِي يَهُوذَا إِنَّمَا صَنَعُوا الشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيَّ مُنْذُ صِبَاهُمْ. لأَنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِنَّمَا أَغَاظُونِي بِعَمَلِ أَيْدِيهِمْ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.

For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have only done evil before me from their youth: for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saith the LORD.

لأَنَّ هذِهِ الْمَدِينَةَ قَدْ صَارَتْ لِي لِغَضَبِي وَلِغَيْظِي مِنَ الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي فِيهِ بَنَوْهَا إِلَى هذَا الْيَوْمِ، لأَنْزِعَهَا مِنْ أَمَامِ وَجْهِي

For this city hath been to me as a provocation of mine anger and of my fury from the day that they built it even unto this day; that I should remove it from before my face,

مِنْ أَجْلِ كُلِّ شَرِّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَبَنِي يَهُوذَا الَّذِي عَمِلُوهُ لِيُغِيظُونِي بِهِ، هُمْ وَمُلُوكُهُمْ وَرُؤَسَاؤُهُمْ وَكَهَنَتُهُمْ وَأَنْبِيَاؤُهُمْ وَرِجَالُ يَهُوذَا وَسُكَّانُ أُورُشَلِيمَ.

Because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

وَقَدْ حَوَّلُوا لِي الْقَفَا لاَ الْوَجْهَ. وَقَدْ عَلَّمْتُهُمْ مُبَكِّرًا وَمُعَلِّمًا، وَلكِنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِيَقْبَلُوا أَدَبًا.

And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkened to receive instruction.

بَلْ وَضَعُوا مَكْرُهَاتِهِمْ فِي الْبَيْتِ الَّذِي دُعِيَ بِاسْمِي، لِيُنَجِّسُوهُ.

But they set their abominations in the house, which is called by my name, to defile it.

وَبَنَوْا الْمُرْتَفِعَاتِ لِلْبَعْلِ الَّتِي فِي وَادِي ابْنِ هِنُّومَ، لِيُجِيزُوا بَنِيهِمْ وَبَنَاتِهِمْ فِي النَّارِ لِمُولَكَ، الأَمْرَ الَّذِي لَمْ أُوصِهِمْ بِهِ، وَلاَ صَعِدَ عَلَى قَلْبِي، لِيَعْمَلُوا هذَا الرِّجْسَ، لِيَجْعَلُوا يَهُوذَا يُخْطِئُ.

And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.

«وَالآنَ لِذلِكَ هكَذَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ إِلهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ هذِهِ الْمَدِينَةِ الَّتِي تَقُولُونَ إِنَّهَا قَدْ دُفِعَتْ لِيَدِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ بِالسَّيْفِ وَالْجُوعِ وَالْوَبَإِ:

And now therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning this city, whereof ye say, It shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence;

هأَنَذَا أَجْمَعُهُمْ مِنْ كُلِّ الأَرَاضِي الَّتِي طَرَدْتُهُمْ إِلَيْهَا بِغَضَبِي وَغَيْظِي وَبِسُخْطٍ عَظِيمٍ، وَأَرُدُّهُمْ إِلَى هذَا الْمَوْضِعِ، وَأُسَكِّنُهُمْ آمِنِينَ.

Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely:

وَيَكُونُونَ لِي شَعْبًا وَأَنَا أَكُونُ لَهُمْ إِلهًا.

And they shall be my people, and I will be their God:

وَأُعْطِيهِمْ قَلْبًا وَاحِدًا وَطَرِيقًا وَاحِدًا لِيَخَافُونِي كُلَّ الأَيَّامِ، لِخَيْرِهِمْ وَخَيْرِ أَوْلاَدِهِمْ بَعْدَهُمْ.

And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:

وَأَقْطَعُ لَهُمْ عَهْدًا أَبَدِيًّا أَنِّي لاَ أَرْجِعُ عَنْهُمْ لأُحْسِنَ إِلَيْهِمْ، وَأَجْعَلُ مَخَافَتِي فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ فَلاَ يَحِيدُونَ عَنِّي.

And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.

وَأَفْرَحُ بِهِمْ لأُحْسِنَ إِلَيْهِمْ، وَأَغْرِسَهُمْ فِي هذِهِ الأَرْضِ بِالأَمَانَةِ بِكُلِّ قَلْبِي وَبِكُلِّ نَفْسِي.

Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.

لأَنَّهُ هكَذَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ: كَمَا جَلَبْتُ عَلَى هذَا الشَّعْبِ كُلَّ هذَا الشَّرِّ الْعَظِيمِ، هكَذَا أَجْلِبُ أَنَا عَلَيْهِمْ كُلَّ الْخَيْرِ الَّذِي تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهِ إِلَيْهِمْ.

For thus saith the LORD; Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.

فَتُشْتَرَى الْحُقُولُ فِي هذِهِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي تَقُولُونَ إِنَّهَا خَرِبَةٌ بِلاَ إِنْسَانٍ وَبِلاَ حَيَوَانٍ، وَقَدْ دُفِعَتْ لِيَدِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ.

And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

يَشْتَرُونَ الْحُقُولَ بِفِضَّةٍ، وَيَكْتُبُونَ ذلِكَ فِي صُكُوكٍ، وَيَخْتِمُونَ وَيُشْهِدُونَ شُهُودًا فِي أَرْضِ بِنْيَامِينَ وَحَوَالَيْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَفِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا وَمُدُنِ الْجَبَلِ وَمُدُنِ السَّهْلِ وَمُدُنِ الْجَنُوبِ، لأَنِّي أَرُدُّ سَبْيَهُمْ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ».

Men shall buy fields for money, and subscribe evidences, and seal them, and take witnesses in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south: for I will cause their captivity to return, saith the LORD.
