1 اَلْكَلِمَةُ ٱلَّتِي صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ حِينَ كَانَ نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ وَكُلُّ جَيْشِهِ وَكُلُّ مَمَالِكِ أَرَاضِي سُلْطَانِ يَدِهِ وَكُلُّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، يُحَارِبُونَ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَكُلُّ مُدُنِهَا قَائِلَةً:
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, with all his army, all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem and against all its cities, saying:
2 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: ٱذْهَبْ وَكَلِّمْ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا وَقُلْ لَهُ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أَدْفَعُ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ لِيَدِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ فَيُحْرِقُهَا بِٱلنَّارِ.
2 “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Yahweh says, “Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon and he will burn it with fire.
3 وَأَنْتَ لَا تُفْلِتُ مِنْ يَدِهِ، بَلْ تُمْسَكُ إِمْسَاكًا وَتُدْفَعُ لِيَدِهِ، وَتَرَى عَيْنَاكَ عَيْنَيْ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، وَتُكَلِّمُهُ فَمًا لِفَمٍ وَتَذْهَبُ إِلَى بَابِلَ.
3 You won’t escape out of his hand, but will surely be taken and delivered into his hand. Your eyes will see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with you mouth to mouth. You will go to Babylon.”’
4 وَلَكِنِ ٱسْمَعْ كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَا صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا. هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ جِهَتِكَ: لَا تَمُوتُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ.
4 “Yet hear Yahweh’s word, O Zedekiah king of Judah. Yahweh says concerning you, ‘You won’t die by the sword.
5 بِسَلَامٍ تَمُوتُ، وَبِإِحْرَاقِ آبَائِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا قَبْلَكَ، هَكَذَا يُحْرِقُونَ لَكَ وَيَنْدُبُونَكَ قَائِلِينَ: آهِ، يَا سَيِّدُ. لِأَنِّي أَنَا تَكَلَّمْتُ بِٱلْكَلِمَةِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ».
5 You will die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so they will make a burning for you. They will lament you, saying, “Ah Lord!” for I have spoken the word,’ says Yahweh.”
6 فَكَلَّمَ إِرْمِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا بِكُلِّ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ،
6 Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
7 إِذْ كَانَ جَيْشُ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ يُحَارِبُ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَكُلَّ مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا ٱلْبَاقِيَةِ: لَخِيشَ وَعَزِيقَةَ. لِأَنَّ هَاتَيْنِ بَقِيَتَا فِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا مَدِينَتَيْنِ حَصِينَتَيْنِ.
7 when the king of Babylon’s army was fighting against Jerusalem and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these alone remained of the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
8 ٱلْكَلِمَةُ ٱلَّتِي صَارَتْ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، بَعْدَ قَطْعِ ٱلْمَلِكِ صِدْقِيَّا عَهْدًا مَعَ كُلِّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيُنَادُوا بِٱلْعِتْقِ،
8 The word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, after King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them,
9 أَنْ يُطْلِقَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَبْدَهُ وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَمَتَهُ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّ وَٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّةَ حُرَّيْنِ، حَتَّى لَا يَسْتَعْبِدَهُمَا، أَيْ أَخَوَيْهِ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّيْنِ،أَحَدٌ.
9 that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, that no one should make bondservants of them, of a Jew his brother.
10 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ كُلُّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ دَخَلُوا فِي ٱلْعَهْدِ أَنْ يُطْلِقُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَبْدَهُ، وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَمَتَهُ حُرَّيْنِ وَلَا يَسْتَعْبِدُوهُمَا بَعْدُ، أَطَاعُوا وَأَطْلَقُوا.
10 All the princes and all the people obeyed who had entered into the covenant, that everyone should let his male servant and everyone his female servant go free, that no one should make bondservants of them any more. They obeyed and let them go,
11 وَلَكِنَّهُمْ عَادُوا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَأَرْجَعُوا ٱلْعَبِيدَ وَٱلْإِمَاءَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَطْلَقُوهُمْ أَحْرَارًا، وَأَخْضَعُوهُمْ عَبِيدًا وَإِمَاءً.
11 but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids whom they had let go free to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
12 فَصَارَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلَةً:
12 Therefore Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
13 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: أَنَا قَطَعْتُ عَهْدًا مَعَ آبَائِكُمْ يَوْمَ أَخْرَجْتُهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعَبِيدِ قَائِلًا:
13 “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says: ‘I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying:
14 فِي نِهَايَةِ سَبْعِ سِنِينَ تُطْلِقُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَخَاهُ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّ ٱلَّذِي بِيعَ لَكَ وَخَدَمَكَ سِتَّ سِنِينَ، فَتُطْلِقُهُ حُرًّا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ. وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ آبَاؤُكُمْ لِي وَلَا أَمَالُوا أُذُنَهُمْ.
14 At the end of seven years, every man of you shall release his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to you, and has served you six years. You shall let him go free from you. But your fathers didn’t listen to me, and didn’t incline their ear.
15 وَقَدْ رَجَعْتُمْ أَنْتُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ وَفَعَلْتُمْ مَا هُوَ مُسْتَقِيمٌ فِي عَيْنَيَّ، مُنَادِينَ بِٱلْعِتْقِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ، وَقَطَعْتُمْ عَهْدًا أَمَامِي فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلَّذِي دُعِيَ بِٱسْمِي.
15 You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in every man proclaiming liberty to his neighbor. You had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name;
16 ثُمَّ عُدْتُمْ وَدَنَّسْتُمُ ٱسْمِي وَأَرْجَعْتُمْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَبْدَهُ، وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَمَتَهُ ٱلَّذِينَ أَطْلَقْتُمُوهُمْ أَحْرَارًا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ، وَأَخْضَعْتُمُوهُمْ لِيَكُونُوا لَكُمْ عَبِيدًا وَإِمَاءً.
16 but you turned and profaned my name, and every man caused his servant and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return. You brought them into subjection, to be to you for servants and for handmaids.’”
17 لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَنْتُمْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا لِي لِتُنَادُوا بِٱلْعِتْقِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى أَخِيهِ، وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ. هَأَنَذَا أُنَادِي لَكُمْ بِٱلْعِتْقِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِلسَّيْفِ وَٱلْوَبَإِ وَٱلْجُوعِ، وَأَجْعَلُكُمْ قَلَقًا لِكُلِّ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.
17 Therefore Yahweh says: “You have not listened to me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor. Behold, I proclaim to you a liberty,” says Yahweh, “to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine. I will make you be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth.
18 وَأَدْفَعُ ٱلنَّاسَ ٱلَّذِينَ تَعَدَّوْا عَهْدِي، ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يُقِيمُوا كَلَامَ ٱلْعَهْدِ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعُوهُ أَمَامِي. ٱلْعِجْلَ ٱلَّذِي قَطَعُوهُ إِلَى ٱثْنَيْنِ، وَجَازُوا بَيْنَ قِطْعَتَيْهِ.
18 I will give the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me when they cut the calf in two and passed between its parts:
19 رُؤَسَاءَ يَهُوذَا وَرُؤَسَاءَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، ٱلْخِصْيَانَ وَٱلْكَهَنَةَ وَكُلَّ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَازُوا بَيْنَ قِطْعَتَيِ ٱلْعِجْلِ،
19 the princes of Judah, the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, the priests, and all the people of the land, who passed between the parts of the calf.
20 أَدْفَعُهُمْ لِيَدِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ وَلِيَدِ طَالِبِي نُفُوسِهِمْ، فَتَكُونُ جُثَثُهُمْ أُكْلًا لِطُيُورِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَوُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.
20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who seek their life. Their dead bodies will be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.
21 وَأَدْفَعُ صِدْقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا وَرُؤَسَاءَهُ لِيَدِ أَعْدَائِهِمْ، وَلِيَدِ طَالِبِي نُفُوسِهِمْ، وَلِيَدِ جَيْشِ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ ٱلَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا عَنْكُمْ.
21 “I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes into the hands of their enemies, into the hands of those who seek their life and into the hands of the king of Babylon’s army, who has gone away from you.
22 هَأَنَذَا آمُرُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأَرُدُّهُمْ إِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ فَيُحَارِبُونَهَا وَيَأْخُذُونَهَا وَيُحْرِقُونَهَا بِٱلنَّارِ، وَأَجْعَلُ مُدُنَ يَهُوذَا خَرِبَةً بِلَا سَاكِنٍ».
22 Behold, I will command,” says Yahweh, “and cause them to return to this city. They will fight against it, take it, and burn it with fire. I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.”
