Jeremiah 48

عَنْ مُوآبَ: «هكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ الْجُنُودِ إِلهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: وَيْلٌ لِنَبُو لأَنَّهَا قَدْ خَرِبَتْ. خَزِيَتْ وَأُخِذَتْ قَرْيَتَايِمُ. خَزِيَتْ مِسْجَابُ وَارْتَعَبَتْ.

Against Moab thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Woe unto Nebo! for it is spoiled: Kiriathaim is confounded and taken: Misgab is confounded and dismayed.

لَيْسَ مَوْجُودًا بَعْدُ فَخْرُ مُوآبَ. فِي حَشْبُونَ فَكَّرُوا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا. هَلُمَّ فَنَقْرِضُهَا مِنْ أَنْ تَكُونَ أُمَّةً. وَأَنْتِ أَيْضًا يَا مَدْمِينُ تُصَمِّينَ وَيَذْهَبُ وَرَاءَكِ السَّيْفُ.

There shall be no more praise of Moab: in Heshbon they have devised evil against it; come, and let us cut it off from being a nation. Also thou shalt be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue thee.

صَوْتُ صِيَاحٍ مِنْ حُورُونَايِمَ، هَلاَكٌ وَسَحْقٌ عَظِيمٌ.

A voice of crying shall be from Horonaim, spoiling and great destruction.

قَدْ حُطِّمَتْ مُوآبُ، وَأَسْمَعَ صِغَارُهَا صُرَاخًا.

Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.

لأَنَّهُ فِي عَقَبَةِ لُوحِيتَ يَصْعَدُ بُكَاءٌ عَلَى بُكَاءٍ، لأَنَّهُ فِي مُنْحَدَرِ حُورُونَايِمَ سَمِعَ الأَعْدَاءُ صُرَاخَ انْكِسَارٍ.

For in the going up of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in the going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.

اهْرُبُوا نَجُّوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ، وَكُونُوا كَعَرْعَرٍ فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ.

Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.

«فَمِنْ أَجْلِ اتِّكَالِكِ عَلَى أَعْمَالِكِ وَعَلَى خَزَائِنِكِ سَتُؤْخَذِينَ أَنْتِ أَيْضًا، وَيَخْرُجُ كَمُوشُ إِلَى السَّبْيِ، كَهَنَتُهُ ورُؤَسَاؤُهُ مَعًا.

For because thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy treasures, thou shalt also be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity with his priests and his princes together.

وَيَأْتِي الْمُهْلِكُ إِلَى كُلِّ مَدِينَةٍ، فَلاَ تُفْلِتُ مَدِينَةٌ، فَيَبِيدُ الْوَطَاءُ، وَيَهْلِكُ السَّهْلُ كَمَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ.

And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape: the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed, as the LORD hath spoken.

أَعْطُوا مُوآبَ جَنَاحًا لأَنَّهَا تَخْرُجُ طَائِرَةً وَتَصِيرُ مُدُنُهَا خَرِبَةً بِلاَ سَاكِنٍ فِيهَا.

Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.

مَلْعُونٌ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ عَمَلَ الرَّبِّ بِرِخَاءٍ، وَمَلْعُونٌ مَنْ يَمْنَعُ سَيْفَهُ عَنِ الدَّمِ.

Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.

«مُسْتَرِيحٌ مُوآبُ مُنْذُ صِبَاهُ، وَهُوَ مُسْتَقِرٌّ عَلَى دُرْدِيِّهِ، وَلَمْ يُفْرَغْ مِنْ إِنَاءٍ إِلَى إِنَاءٍ، وَلَمْ يَذْهَبْ إِلَى السَّبْيِ. لِذلِكَ بَقِيَ طَعْمُهُ فِيهِ، وَرَائِحَتُهُ لَمْ تَتَغَيَّرْ.

Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is not changed.

لِذلِكَ هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، وَأُرْسِلُ إِلَيْهِ مُصْغِينَ فَيُصْغُونَهُ، وَيُفَرِّغُونَ آنِيَتَهُ، وَيَكْسِرُونَ أَوْعِيَتَهُمْ.

Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will send unto him wanderers, that shall cause him to wander, and shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles.

فَيَخْجَلُ مُوآبُ مِنْ كَمُوشَ، كَمَا خَجِلَ بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ بَيْتِ إِيلَ مُتَّكَلِهِمْ.

And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Beth–el their confidence.

«كَيْفَ تَقُولُونَ نَحْنُ جَبَابِرَةٌ وَرِجَالُ قُوَّةٍ لِلْحَرْبِ؟

How say ye, We are mighty and strong men for the war?

أُهْلِكَتْ مُوآبُ وَصَعِدَتْ مُدُنُهَا، وَخِيَارُ مُنْتَخَبِيهَا نَزَلُوا لِلْقَتْلِ، يَقُولُ الْمَلِكُ رَبُّ الْجُنُودِ اسْمُهُ.

Moab is spoiled, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.

قَرِيبٌ مَجِيءُ هَلاَكِ مُوآبَ، وَبَلِيَّتُهَا مُسْرِعَةٌ جِدًّا.

The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.

اُنْدُبُوهَا يَا جَمِيعَ الَّذِينَ حَوَالَيْهَا، وَكُلَّ الْعَارِفِينَ اسْمَهَا قُولُوا: كَيْفَ انْكَسَرَ قَضِيبُ الْعِزِّ، عَصَا الْجَلاَلِ؟

All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken, and the beautiful rod!

اِنْزِلِي مِنَ الْمَجْدِ، اجْلِسِي فِي الظَّمَاءِ أَيَّتُهَا السَّاكِنَةُ بِنْتَ دِيبُونَ، لأَنَّ مُهْلِكَ مُوآبَ قَدْ صَعِدَ إِلَيْكِ وَأَهْلَكَ حُصُونَكِ.

Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, and he shall destroy thy strong holds.

قِفِي عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ وَتَطَلَّعِي يَا سَاكِنَةَ عَرُوعِيرَ. اسْأَلِي الْهَارِبَ وَالنَّاجِيَةَ. قُولِي: مَاذَا حَدَثَ؟

O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, and say, What is done?

قَدْ خَزِيَ مُوآبُ لأَنَّهُ قَدْ نُقِضَ. وَلْوِلُوا وَاصْرُخُوا. أَخْبِرُوا فِي أَرْنُونَ أَنَّ مُوآبَ قَدْ أُهْلِكَ.

Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled,

وَقَدْ جَاءَ الْقَضَاءُ عَلَى أَرْضِ السَّهْلِ، عَلَى حُولُونَ وَعَلَى يَهْصَةَ وَعَلَى مَيْفَعَةَ،

And judgment is come upon the plain country; upon Holon, and upon Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,

وَعَلَى دِيبُونَ وَعَلَى نَبُو وَعَلَى بَيْتَِ دَبْلَتَايِمَ،

And upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Beth–diblathaim,

وَعَلَى قَرْيَتَايِمَ وَعَلَى بَيْتَِ جَامُولَ وَعَلَى بَيْتَِ مَعُونَ،

And upon Kiriathaim, and upon Beth–gamul, and upon Beth–meon,

وَعَلَى قَرْيُوتَ وَعَلَى بُصْرَةَ وَعَلَى كُلِّ مُدُنِ أَرْضِ مُوآبَ الْبَعِيدَةِ وَالْقَرِيبَةِ.

And upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.

عُضِبَ قَرْنُ مُوآبَ، وَتَحَطَّمَتْ ذِرَاعُهُ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.

The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith the LORD.

«أَسْكِرُوهُ لأَنَّهُ قَدْ تَعَاظَمَ عَلَى الرَّبِّ، فَيَتَمَرَّغَ مُوآبُ فِي قُيَائِهِ، وَهُوَ أَيْضًا يَكُونُ ضُحْكَةً.

Make ye him drunken: for he magnified himself against the LORD: Moab also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.

أَفَمَا كَانَ إِسْرَائِيلُ ضُحْكَةً لَكَ؟ هَلْ وُجِدَ بَيْنَ اللُّصُوصِ حَتَّى أَنَّكَ كُلَّمَا كُنْتَ تَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ كُنْتَ تَنْغَضُ الرَّأْسَ؟

For was not Israel a derision unto thee? was he found among thieves? for since thou spakest of him, thou skippedst for joy.

خَلُّوا الْمُدُنَ، وَاسْكُنُوا فِي الصَّخْرِ يَا سُكَّانَ مُوآبَ، وَكُونُوا كَحَمَامَةٍ تُعَشِّشُ فِي جَوَانِبِ فَمِ الْحُفْرَةِ.

O ye that dwell in Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock, and be like the dove that maketh her nest in the sides of the hole's mouth.

قَدْ سَمِعْنَا بِكِبْرِيَاءِ مُوآبَ. هُوَ مُتَكَبِّرٌ جِدًّا. بِعَظَمَتِهِ وَبِكِبْرِيَائِهِ وَجَلاَلِهِ وَارْتِفَاعِ قَلْبِهِ.

We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his loftiness, and his arrogancy, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart.

أَنَا عَرَفْتُ سَخَطَهُ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، إِنَّهُ بَاطِلٌ. أَكَاذِيبُهُ فَعَلَتْ بَاطِلاً.

I know his wrath, saith the LORD; but it shall not be so; his lies shall not so effect it.

مِنْ أَجْلِ ذلِكَ أُوَلْوِلُ عَلَى مُوآبَ، وَعَلَى مُوآبَ كُلِّهِ أَصْرُخُ. يُؤَنُّ عَلَى رِجَالِ قِيرَ حَارِسَ.

Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; mine heart shall mourn for the men of Kir–heres.

أَبْكِي عَلَيْكِ بُكَاءَ يَعْزِيرَ، يَا جَفْنَةَ سَبْمَةَ. قَدْ عَبَرَتْ قُضْبَانُكِ الْبَحْرَ، وَصَلَتْ إِلَى بَحْرِ يَعْزِيرَ. وَقَعَ الْمُهْلِكُ عَلَى جَنَاكِ، وَعَلَى قِطَافِكِ.

O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer: thy plants are gone over the sea, they reach even to the sea of Jazer: the spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.

وَنُزِعَ الْفَرَحُ وَالطَّرَبُ مِنَ الْبُسْتَانِ، وَمِنْ أَرْضِ مُوآبَ. وَقَدْ أُبْطِلَتِ الْخَمْرُ مِنَ الْمَعَاصِرِ. لاَ يُدَاسُ بِهُتَافٍ. جَلَبَةٌ لاَ هُتَافٌ.

And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall be no shouting.

قَدْ أَطْلَقُوا صَوْتَهُمْ مِنْ صُرَاخِ حَشْبُونَ إِلَى أَلْعَالَةَ إِلَى يَاهَصَ، مِنْ صُوغَرَ إِلَى حُورُونَايِمَ، كَعِجْلَةٍ ثُلاَثِيَّةٍ، لأَنَّ مِيَاهَ نِمْرِيمَ أَيْضًا تَصِيرُ خَرِبَةً.

From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, and even unto Jahaz, have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim, as an heifer of three years old: for the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate.

وَأُبَطِّلُ مِنْ مُوآبَ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، مَنْ يُصْعِدُ فِي مُرْتَفَعَةٍ، وَمَنْ يُبَخِّرُ لآلِهَتِهِ.

Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith the LORD, him that offereth in the high places, and him that burneth incense to his gods.

مِنْ أَجْلِ ذلِكَ يُصَوِّتُ قَلْبِي لِمُوآبَ كَنَايٍ، وَيُصَوِّتُ قَلْبِي لِرِجَالِ قِيرَ حَارِسَ كَنَايٍ، لأَنَّ الثَّرْوَةَ الَّتِي اكْتَسَبُوهَا قَدْ بَادَتْ.

Therefore mine heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and mine heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kir–heres: because the riches that he hath gotten are perished.

لأَنَّ كُلَّ رَأْسٍ أَقْرَعُ، وَكُلَّ لِحْيَةٍ مَجْزُوزَةٌ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ الأَيَادِي خُمُوشٌ، وَعَلَى الأَحْقَاءِ مُسُوحٌ.

For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped: upon all the hands shall be cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth.

عَلَى كُلِّ سُطُوحِ مُوآبَ وَفِي شَوَارِعِهَا كُلِّهَا نَوْحٌ، لأَنِّي قَدْ حَطَمْتُ مُوآبَ كَإِنَاءٍ لاَ مَسَرَّةَ بِهِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.

There shall be lamentation generally upon all the housetops of Moab, and in the streets thereof: for I have broken Moab like a vessel wherein is no pleasure, saith the LORD.

يُوَلْوِلُونَ قَائِلِينَ: كَيْفَ نُقِضَتْ؟ كَيْفَ حَوَّلَتْ مُوآبُ قَفَاهَا بِخِزْيٍ؟ فَقَدْ صَارَتْ مُوآبُ ضُحْكَةً وَرُعْبًا لِكُلِّ مَنْ حَوَالَيْهَا.

They shall howl, saying, How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him.

لأَنَّهُ هكَذَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ: هَا هُوَ يَطِيرُ كَنَسْرٍ، وَيَبْسُطُ جَنَاحَيْهِ عَلَى مُوآبَ.

For thus saith the LORD; Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread his wings over Moab.

قَدْ أُخِذَتْ قَرْيُوتُ، وَأُمْسِكَتِ الْحَصِينَاتُ، وَسَيَكُونُ قَلْبُ جَبَابِرَةِ مُوآبَ فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ كَقَلْبِ امْرَأَةٍ مَاخِضٍ.

Kerioth is taken, and the strong holds are surprised, and the mighty men's hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.

وَيَهْلِكُ مُوآبُ عَنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ شَعْبًا، لأَنَّهُ قَدْ تَعَاظَمَ عَلَى الرَّبِّ.

And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against the LORD.

خَوْفٌ وَحُفْرَةٌ وَفَخٌّ عَلَيْكَ يَا سَاكِنَ مُوآبَ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.

Fear, and the pit, and the snare, shall be upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith the LORD.

الَّذِي يَهْرُبُ مِنْ وَجْهِ الْخَوْفِ يَسْقُطُ فِي الْحُفْرَةِ، وَالَّذِي يَصْعَدُ مِنَ الْحُفْرَةِ يَعْلَقُ فِي الْفَخِّ، لأَنِّي أَجْلِبُ عَلَيْهَا، أيْ عَلَى مُوآبَ، سَنَةَ عِقَابِهِمْ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.

He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon it, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.

فِي ظِلِّ حَشْبُونَ وَقَفَ الْهَارِبُونَ بِلاَ قُوَّةٍ، لأَنَّهُ قَدْ خَرَجَتْ نَارٌ مِنْ حَشْبُونَ، وَلَهِيبٌ مِنْ وَسْطِ سِيحُونَ، فَأَكَلَتْ زَاوِيَةَ مُوآبَ، وَهَامَةَ بَنِي الْوَغَى.

They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the force: but a fire shall come forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.

وَيْلٌ لَكَ يَا مُوآبُ! بَادَ شَعْبُ كَمُوشَ، لأَنَّ بَنِيكَ قَدْ أُخِذُوا إِلَى السَّبْيِ وَبَنَاتِكَ إِلَى الْجَلاَءِ.

Woe be unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh perisheth: for thy sons are taken captives, and thy daughters captives.

وَلكِنَّنِي أَرُدُّ سَبْيَ مُوآبَ فِي آخِرِ الأَيَّامِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ».

Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, saith the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
