1 الكلام الذي صار الى ارميا من قبل الرب حين ارسل اليه الملك صدقيا فشحور بن ملكيا وصفنيا بن معسيا الكاهن قائلا1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, when king Zedekiah sent Pashhur, the son of Malchiah, and Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to him, saying:
2 اسأل الرب من اجلنا لان نبوخذراصر ملك بابل يحاربنا. لعل الرب يصنع معنا حسب كل عجائبه فيصعد عنا2 “Question the Lord on our behalf, for Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, is fighting against us. Perhaps it may be that the Lord will act toward us according to all his wonders, and he may withdraw from us.”
3 فقال لهما ارميا. هكذا تقولان لصدقيا.3 And Jeremiah said to them: “This is what you shall say to Zedekiah:
4 هكذا قال الرب اله اسرائيل. هانذا ارد ادوات الحرب التي بيدكم التي انتم محاربون بها ملك بابل والكلدانيين الذين يحاصرونكم خارج السور واجمعهم في وسط هذه المدينة.4 Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which you fight against the king of Babylon and the Chaldeans, who besiege you at the surrounding walls. And I will gather these things together in the midst of this city.
5 وانا احاربكم بيد ممدودة وبذراع شديدة وبغضب وحمو وغيظ عظيم.5 And I myself will make war against you: with an outstretched hand, and with a strong arm, and in fury, and in indignation, and in great wrath.
6 واضرب سكان هذه المدينة الناس والبهائم معا. بوبإ عظيم يموتون6 And I will strike the inhabitants of this city; men and beasts will die from a great pestilence.
7 ثم بعد ذلك قال الرب ادفع صدقيا ملك يهوذا وعبيده والشعب والباقين في هذه المدينة من الوبإ والسيف والجوع ليد نبوخذراصر ملك بابل وليد اعدائهم وليد طالبي نفوسهم فيضربهم بحد السيف. لا يترأف عليهم ولا يشفق ولا يرحم7 And afterward, thus says the Lord: I will give Zedekiah, the king of Judah, and his servants, and his people, and those who have been left behind in this city after pestilence and the sword and famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their lives. And he will strike them with the edge of the sword. And he will not waver, and he will not be lenient, and he will not take pity.
8 وتقول لهذا الشعب. هكذا قال الرب. هانذا اجعل امامكم طريق الحياة وطريق الموت.8 And to this people, you shall say: Thus says the Lord: Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
9 الذي يقيم في هذه المدينة يموت بالسيف والجوع والوبإ. والذي يخرج ويسقط الى الكلدانيين الذين يحاصرونكم يحيا وتصير نفسه له غنيمة.9 Whoever lives in this city will die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence. But whoever will have departed and fled away to the Chaldeans, who besiege you, will live, and his life will be to him like a spoil.
10 لاني قد جعلت وجهي على هذه المدينة للشر لا للخير يقول الرب. ليد ملك بابل تدفع فيحرقها بالنار10 For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good, says the Lord. It will be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it with fire.
11 ولبيت ملك يهوذا تقول اسمعوا كلمة الرب.11 And to the house of the king of Judah, you shall say: Listen to the word of the Lord,
12 يا بيت داود هكذا قال الرب. اقضوا في الصباح عدلا وانقذوا المغصوب من يد الظالم لئلا يخرج كنار غضبي فيحرق وليس من يطفئ من اجل شر اعمالكم.12 O house of David! Thus says the Lord: Judge with judgment from early morning, and rescue anyone who is oppressed by violence from the hand of a false accuser. Otherwise, my indignation may go forth like a fire, and may flare up, and there will be no one who can extinguish it, because of the evil of your intentions.
13 هانذا ضدك يا ساكنة العمق صخرة السهل يقول الرب. الذين يقولون من ينزل علينا ومن يدخل الى منازلنا.13 Behold, I am against you, O inhabitants of a valley with firm and level ground, says the Lord. And you say: ‘Who can strike us? And who can enter into our houses?’
14 ولكنني اعاقبكم حسب ثمر اعمالكم يقول الرب. واشعل نارا في وعره فتاكل ما حواليها14 But I will visit against you according to the fruit of your intentions, says the Lord. And I will kindle a fire in its forest. And it shall devour everything around it.”
