2 Kings 3

KING JAMES BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.	1 وملك يهورام بن اخآب على اسرائيل في السامرة في السنة الثامنة عشرة ليهوشافاط ملك يهوذا. ملك اثنتي عشرة سنة.
2 And he wrought evil in the sight of the LORD; but not like his father, and like his mother: for he put away the image of Baal that his father had made.	2 وعمل الشر في عيني الرب ولكن ليس كابيه وامه فانه ازال تمثال البعل الذي عمله ابوه.
3 Nevertheless he cleaved unto the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.	3 الاّ انه لصق بخطايا يربعام بن نباط الذي جعل اسرائيل يخطئ. لم يحد عنها
4 And Mesha king of Moab was a sheepmaster, and rendered unto the king of Israel an hundred thousand lambs, and an hundred thousand rams, with the wool.	4 وكان ميشع ملك موآب صاحب مواش فأدّى لملك اسرائيل مئة الف خروف ومئة الف كبش بصوفها.
5 But it came to pass, when Ahab was dead, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.	5 وعند موت اخآب عصى ملك موآب على ملك اسرائيل.
6 And king Jehoram went out of Samaria the same time, and numbered all Israel.	6 وخرج الملك يهورام في ذلك اليوم من السامرة وعدّ كل اسرائيل
7 And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab hath rebelled against me: wilt thou go with me against Moab to battle? And he said, I will go up: I am as thou art, my people as thy people, and my horses as thy horses.	7 وذهب وارسل الى يوشافاط ملك يهوذا يقول. قد عصى عليّ ملك موآب. فهل تذهب معي الى موآب للحرب. فقال اصعد. مثلي مثلك. شعبي كشعبك وخيلي كخيلك.
8 And he said, Which way shall we go up? And he answered, The way through the wilderness of Edom.	8 فقال من اي طريق نصعد. فقال من طريق برية ادوم.
9 So the king of Israel went, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom: and they fetched a compass of seven days' journey: and there was no water for the host, and for the cattle that followed them.	9 فذهب ملك اسرائيل وملك يهوذا وملك ادوم وداروا مسيرة سبعة ايام. ولم يكن ماء للجيش والبهائم التي تبعتهم
10 And the king of Israel said, Alas! that the LORD hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab!	10 فقال ملك اسرائيل آه على ان الرب قد دعا هؤلاء الثلاثة الملوك ليدفعهم الى يد موآب.
11 But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the LORD, that we may inquire of the LORD by him? And one of the king of Israel's servants answered and said, Here is Elisha the son of Shaphat, which poured water on the hands of Elijah.	11 فقال يهوشافاط أليس هنا نبي للرب فنسأل الرب به. فاجاب واحد من عبيد ملك اسرائيل وقال. هنا اليشع بن شافاط الذي كان يصبّ ماء على يدي ايليا.
12 And Jehoshaphat said, The word of the LORD is with him. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.	12 فقال يهوشافاط عنده كلام الرب. فنزل اليه ملك اسرائيل ويهوشافاط وملك ادوم.
13 And Elisha said unto the king of Israel, What have I to do with thee? get thee to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said unto him, Nay: for the LORD hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab.	13 فقال اليشع لملك اسرائيل. ما لي ولك. اذهب الى انبياء ابيك والى انبياء امّك. فقال له ملك اسرائيل كلا. لان الرب قد دعا هؤلاء الثلاثة الملوك ليدفعهم الى يد موآب.
14 And Elisha said, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee.	14 فقال اليشع حيّ هو رب الجنود الذي انا واقف امامه انه لولا اني رافع وجه يهوشافاط ملك يهوذا لما كنت انظر اليك ولا اراك.
15 But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the LORD came upon him.	15 والآن فاتوني بعوّاد. ولما ضرب العواد بالعود كانت عليه يد الرب
16 And he said, Thus saith the LORD, Make this valley full of ditches.	16 فقال هكذا قال الرب اجعلوا هذا الوادي جبابا جبابا.
17 For thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts.	17 لانه هكذا قال الرب لا ترون ريحا ولا ترون مطرا وهذا الوادي يمتلئ ماء فتشربون انتم وماشيتكم وبهائمكم.
18 And this is but a light thing in the sight of the LORD: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand.	18 وذلك يسير في عيني الرب فيدفع موآب الى ايديكم.
19 And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.	19 فتضربون كل مدينة محصّنة وكل مدينة مختارة وتقطعون كل شجرة طيبة وتطمّون جميع عيون الماء وتفسدون كل حقلة جيدة بالحجارة.
20 And it came to pass in the morning, when the meat offering was offered, that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.	20 وفي الصباح عند اصعاد التقدمة اذا مياه آتية عن طريق ادوم فامتلأت الارض ماء.
21 And when all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them, they gathered all that were able to put on armour, and upward, and stood in the border.	21 ولما سمع كل الموآبيين ان الملوك قد صعدوا لمحاربتهم جمعوا كل متقلدي السلاح فما فوق ووقفوا على التخم.
22 And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood:	22 وبكروا صباحا والشمس اشرقت على المياه ورأى الموآبيون مقابلهم المياه حمراء كالدم.
23 And they said, This is blood: the kings are surely slain, and they have smitten one another: now therefore, Moab, to the spoil.	23 فقالوا هذا دم. قد تحارب الملوك وضرب بعضهم بعضا والآن فالى النهب يا موآب.
24 And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them: but they went forward smiting the Moabites, even in their country.	24 وأتوا الى محلّة اسرائيل فقام اسرائيل وضربوا الموآبيين فهربوا من امامهم فدخلوها وهم يضربون الموآبيين.
25 And they beat down the cities, and on every good piece of land cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the wells of water, and felled all the good trees: only in Kir-haraseth left they the stones thereof; howbeit the slingers went about it, and smote it.	25 وهدموا المدن وكان كل واحد يلقي حجره في كل حقلة جيدة حتى ملأوها وطمّوا جميع عيون الماء وقطعوا كل شجرة طيّبة. ولكنهم ابقوا في قير حارسة حجارتها واستدار اصحاب المقاليع وضربوها.
26 And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too sore for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords, to break through even unto the king of Edom: but they could not.	26 فلما رأى ملك موآب ان الحرب قد اشتدّت عليه اخذ معه سبع مئة رجل مستلّي السيوف لكي يشقوا الى ملك ادوم فلم يقدروا.
27 Then he took his eldest son that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall. And there was great indignation against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.	27 فاخذ ابنه البكر الذي كان ملك عوضا عنه واصعده محرقة على السور. فكان غيظ عظيم على اسرائيل. فانصرفوا عنه ورجعوا الى ارضهم
