SMITH VAN DYKEKING JAMES BIBLE
1 واحصى داود الشعب الذي معه وجعل عليهم رؤساء الوف ورؤساء مئات.1 And David numbered the people that were with him, and set captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them.
2 وارسل داود الشعب ثلثا بيد يوآب وثلثا بيد ابيشاي ابن صروية اخي يوآب وثلثا بيد إتاي الجتّي. وقال الملك للشعب اني انا ايضا اخرج معكم.2 And David sent forth a third part of the people under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said unto the people, I will surely go forth with you myself also.
3 فقال الشعب لا تخرج لاننا اذا هربنا لا يبالون بنا واذا مات نصفنا لا يبالون بنا. والآن انت كعشرة آلاف منا. والآن الاصلح ان تكون لنا نجدة من المدينة.3 But the people answered, Thou shalt not go forth: for if we flee away, they will not care for us; neither if half of us die, will they care for us: but now thou art worth ten thousand of us: therefore now it is better that thou succour us out of the city.
4 فقال لهم الملك ما يحسن في اعينكم افعله. فوقف الملك بجانب الباب وخرج جميع الشعب مئات والوفا.4 And the king said unto them, What seemeth you best I will do. And the king stood by the gate side, and all the people came out by hundreds and by thousands.
5 واوصى الملك يوآب وابيشاي واتّاي قائلا ترفقوا لي بالفتى ابشالوم. وسمع جميع الشعب حين اوصى الملك جميع الرؤساء بابشالوم.5 And the king commanded Joab and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Deal gently for my sake with the young man, even with Absalom. And all the people heard when the king gave all the captains charge concerning Absalom.
6 وخرج الشعب الى الحقل للقاء اسرائيل. وكان القتال في وعر افرايم.6 So the people went out into the field against Israel: and the battle was in the wood of Ephraim;
7 فانكسر هناك شعب اسرائيل امام عبيد داود وكانت هناك مقتلة عظيمة في ذلك اليوم. قتل عشرون الفا.7 Where the people of Israel were slain before the servants of David, and there was there a great slaughter that day of twenty thousand men.
8 وكان القتال هناك منتشرا على وجه كل الارض وزاد الذين اكلهم الوعر من الشعب على الذين اكلهم السيف في ذلك اليوم.8 For the battle was there scattered over the face of all the country: and the wood devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.
9 وصادف ابشالوم عبيد داود وكان ابشالوم راكبا على بغل فدخل البغل تحت اغصان البطمة العظيمة الملتفّة فتعلّق راسه بالبطمة وعلّق بين السماء والارض والبغل الذي تحته مرّ.9 And Absalom met the servants of David. And Absalom rode upon a mule, and the mule went under the thick boughs of a great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth; and the mule that was under him went away.
10 فرأه رجل واخبر يوآب وقال اني قد رأيت ابشالوم معلقا بالبطمة.10 And a certain man saw it, and told Joab, and said, Behold, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.
11 فقال يوآب للرجل الذي اخبره انك قد رأيته فلماذا لم تضربه هناك الى الارض وعليّ ان اعطيك عشرة من الفضة ومنطقة.11 And Joab said unto the man that told him, And, behold, thou sawest him, and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten shekels of silver, and a girdle.
12 فقال الرجل ليوآب فلو وزن في يدي الف من الفضة لما كنت امد يدي الى ابن الملك. لان الملك اوصاك في آذاننا انت وابيشاي واتّاي قائلا احترزوا ايّا كان منكم على الفتى ابشالوم.12 And the man said unto Joab, Though I should receive a thousand shekels of silver in mine hand, yet would I not put forth mine hand against the king's son: for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Beware that none touch the young man Absalom.
13 والا فكنت فعلت بنفسي زورا اذ لا يخفى عن الملك شيء وانت كنت وقفت ضدّي.13 Otherwise I should have wrought falsehood against mine own life: for there is no matter hid from the king, and thou thyself wouldest have set thyself against me.
14 فقال يوآب اني لا اصبر هكذا امامك. فاخذ ثلاثة سهام بيده ونشبها في قلب ابشالوم وهو بعد حيّ في قلب البطمة14 Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.
15 واحاط بها عشرة غلمان حاملو سلاح يوآب وضربوا ابشالوم واماتوه.15 And ten young men that bare Joab's armour compassed about and smote Absalom, and slew him.
16 وضرب يوآب بالبوق فرجع الشعب عن اتّباع اسرائيل لان يوآب منع الشعب.16 And Joab blew the trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing after Israel: for Joab held back the people.
17 واخذوا ابشالوم وطرحوه في الوعر في الجبّ العظيم واقاموا عليه رجمة عظيمة جدا من الحجارة. وهرب كل اسرائيل كل واحد الى خيمته.17 And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the wood, and laid a very great heap of stones upon him: and all Israel fled every one to his tent.
18 وكان ابشالوم قد اخذ واقام لنفسه وهو حيّ النصب الذي في وادي الملك لانه قال ليس لي ابن لاجل تذكير اسمي. ودعا النصب باسمه وهو يدعى يد ابشالوم الى هذا اليوم18 Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself a pillar, which is in the king's dale: for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance: and he called the pillar after his own name: and it is called unto this day, Absalom's place.
19 وقال اخيمعص بن صادوق دعني اجر فابشر الملك لان الله قد انتقم له من اعدائه.19 Then said Ahimaaz the son of Zadok, Let me now run, and bear the king tidings, how that the LORD hath avenged him of his enemies.
20 فقال له يوآب ما انت صاحب بشارة في هذا اليوم. في يوم آخر تبشّر وهذا اليوم لا تبشّر من اجل ان ابن الملك قد مات.20 And Joab said unto him, Thou shalt not bear tidings this day, but thou shalt bear tidings another day: but this day thou shalt bear no tidings, because the king's son is dead.
21 وقال يوآب لكوشي اذهب واخبر الملك بما رأيت. فسجد كوشي ليوآب وركض.21 Then said Joab to Cushi, Go tell the king what thou hast seen. And Cushi bowed himself unto Joab, and ran.
22 وعاد ايضا اخيمعص بن صادوق فقال ليوآب مهما كان فدعني أجر انا ايضا وراء كوشي. فقال يوآب لماذا تجري انت يا ابني وليس لك بشارة تجازى.22 Then said Ahimaaz the son of Zadok yet again to Joab, But howsoever, let me, I pray thee, also run after Cushi. And Joab said, Wherefore wilt thou run, my son, seeing that thou hast no tidings ready?
23 قال مهما كان اجري. فقال له اجر. فجرى اخيمعص في طريق الغور وسبق كوشي23 But howsoever, said he, let me run. And he said unto him, Run. Then Ahimaaz ran by the way of the plain, and overran Cushi.
24 وكان داود جالسا بين البابين وطلع الرقيب الى سطح الباب الى السور ورفع عينيه ونظر واذا برجل يجري وحده.24 And David sat between the two gates: and the watchman went up to the roof over the gate unto the wall, and lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold a man running alone.
25 فنادى الرقيب واخبر الملك. فقال الملك ان كان وحده ففي فمه بشارة. وكان يسعى ويقرب.25 And the watchman cried, and told the king. And the king said, If he be alone, there is tidings in his mouth. And he came apace, and drew near.
26 ثم رأى الرقيب رجلا آخر يجري. فنادى الرقيب البواب وقال هوذا رجل يجري وحده. فقال الملك وهذا ايضا مبشّر.26 And the watchman saw another man running: and the watchman called unto the porter, and said, Behold another man running alone. And the king said, He also bringeth tidings.
27 وقال الرقيب اني ارى جري الاول كجري اخيمعص بن صادوق. فقال الملك هذا رجل صالح ويأتي ببشارة صالحة.27 And the watchman said, Me thinketh the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man, and cometh with good tidings.
28 فنادى اخيمعص وقال للملك السلام وسجد للملك على وجهه الى الارض. وقال مبارك الرب الهك الذي دفع القوم الذين رفعوا ايديهم على سيدي الملك.28 And Ahimaaz called, and said unto the king, All is well. And he fell down to the earth upon his face before the king, and said, Blessed be the LORD thy God, which hath delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king.
29 فقال الملك أسلام للفتى ابشالوم. فقال اخيمعص قد رأيت جمهورا عظيما عند ارسال يوآب عبد الملك وعبدك ولم اعلم ماذا.29 And the king said, Is the young man Absalom safe? And Ahimaaz answered, When Joab sent the king's servant, and me thy servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew not what it was.
30 فقال الملك در وقف ههنا. فدار ووقف.30 And the king said unto him, Turn aside, and stand here. And he turned aside, and stood still.
31 واذا بكوشي قد اتى وقال كوشي ليبشّر سيدي الملك لان الرب قد انتقم لك اليوم من جميع القائمين عليك.31 And, behold, Cushi came; and Cushi said, Tidings, my lord the king: for the LORD hath avenged thee this day of all them that rose up against thee.
32 فقال الملك لكوشي أسلام للفتى ابشالوم. فقال كوشي ليكن كالفتى اعداء سيدي الملك وجميع الذين قاموا عليك للشرّ.32 And the king said unto Cushi, Is the young man Absalom safe? And Cushi answered, The enemies of my lord the king, and all that rise against thee to do thee hurt, be as that young man is.
33 فانزعج الملك وصعد الى علية الباب وكان يبكي ويقول هكذا وهو يتمشى يا ابني ابشالوم يا ابني يا ابني ابشالوم يا ليتني مت عوضا عنك يا ابشالوم ابني يا ابني33 And the king was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept: and as he went, thus he said, O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died for thee, O Absalom, my son, my son!
