SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 ثم ارتحلوا من ايليم واتى كل جماعة بني اسرائيل الى برية سين التي بين ايليم وسيناء في اليوم الخامس عشر من الشهر الثاني بعد خروجهم من ارض مصر.	1 And they set out from Elim. And the entire multitude of the sons of Israel arrived at the desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month, after they departed from the land of Egypt.
2 فتذمر كل جماعة بني اسرائيل على موسى وهرون في البرية.	2 And the entire congregation of the sons of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness.
3 وقال لهما بنو اسرائيل ليتنا متنا بيد الرب في ارض مصر اذ كنا جالسين عند قدور اللحم نأكل خبزا للشبع. فانكما اخرجتمانا الى هذا القفر لكي تميتا كل هذا الجمهور بالجوع	3 And the sons of Israel said to them: “If only we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat around bowls of meat and ate bread until filled. Why have you led us away, into this desert, so that you might kill the entire multitude with famine?”
4 فقال الرب لموسى ها انا امطر لكم خبزا من السماء. فيخرج الشعب ويلتقطون حاجة اليوم بيومها. لكي امتحنهم أيسلكون في ناموسي ام لا.	4 Then the Lord said to Moses: “Behold, I will rain down bread from heaven for you. Let the people go out and collect what is sufficient for each day, so that I may test them, as to whether or not they will walk in my law.
5 ويكون في اليوم السادس انهم يهيئون ما يجيئون به فيكون ضعف ما يلتقطونه يوما فيوما.	5 But on the sixth day, let them prepare what they use for carrying, and let there be double what they were accustomed to collect on a single day.”
6 فقال موسى وهرون لجميع بني اسرائيل في المساء تعلمون ان الرب اخرجكم من ارض مصر.	6 And Moses and Aaron said to the sons of Israel: “In the evening, you will know that the Lord has led you away from the land of Egypt.
7 وفي الصباح ترون مجد الرب لاستماعه تذمّركم على الرب. واما نحن فماذا حتى تتذمروا علينا.	7 And in the morning, you will see the glory of the Lord. For he has heard your murmuring against the Lord. But as for us, truly what are we, that you would whisper against us?”
8 وقال موسى. ذلك بان الرب يعطيكم في المساء لحما لتاكلوا وفي الصباح خبزا لتشبعوا لاستماع الرب تذمّركم الذي تتذمرون عليه. واما نحن فماذا. ليس علينا تذمّركم بل على الرب.	8 And Moses said: “In the evening, the Lord will give you flesh to eat, and in the morning, bread in fullness. For he has heard your murmurings that you have murmured against him. For what are we? Your murmuring is not against us, but against the Lord.”
9 وقال موسى لهرون قل لكل جماعة بني اسرائيل اقتربوا الى امام الرب لانه قد سمع تذمّركم.	9 Moses also said to Aaron: “Say to the whole congregation of the sons of Israel, ‘Approach before the Lord. For he has heard your murmuring.’ ”
10 فحدث اذ كان هرون يكلم كل جماعة بني اسرائيل انهم التفتوا نحو البرية. واذا مجد الرب قد ظهر في السحاب.	10 And when Aaron spoke to the entire assembly of the sons of Israel, they looked out toward the wilderness. And behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.
11 فكلم الرب موسى قائلا.	11 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
12 سمعت تذمر بني اسرائيل. كلمهم قائلا في العشية تاكلون لحما وفي الصباح تشبعون خبزا. وتعلمون اني انا الرب الهكم	12 “I have heard the murmuring of the sons of Israel. Say to them: ‘In the evening, you will eat flesh, and in the morning, you will be filled with bread. And you shall know that I am the Lord your God.’ ”
13 فكان في المساء ان السلوى صعدت وغطت المحلّة. وفي الصباح كان سقيط الندى حوالي المحلّة.	13 Therefore, it happened in the evening: quails, rising up, covered the camp. Likewise, in the morning, a dew lay all around the camp.
14 ولما ارتفع سقيط الندى اذا على وجه البرية شيء دقيق مثل قشور. دقيق كالجليد على الارض.	14 And when it had covered the face of the earth, it appeared, in the wilderness, small and as if crushed with a pestle, similar to hoar-frost on the ground.
15 فلما رأى بنو اسرائيل قالوا بعضهم لبعض من هو. لانهم لم يعرفوا ما هو. فقال لهم موسى هو الخبز الذي اعطاكم الرب لتاكلوا.	15 When the sons of Israel had seen it, they said one to another: “Manhu?” which means “What is this?” For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them: “This is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat.
16 هذا هو الشيء الذي امر به الرب التقطوا منه كل واحد على حسب اكله عمرا للراس على عدد نفوسكم تاخذون كل واحد للذين في خيمته	16 This is the word that the Lord has instructed. Let each one collect as much of it as is sufficient to eat. One omer for each head. According to the number of your souls which live in a tent, so will you take of it.”
17 ففعل بنو اسرائيل هكذا والتقطوا بين مكثّر ومقلّل.	17 And the sons of Israel did so. And they collected: some more, others less.
18 ولما كالوا بالعمر لم يفضل المكثر والمقلل لم ينقص. كانوا قد التقطوا كل واحد على حسب اكله.	18 And they measured by the measure of an omer. He who collected more, did not have too much; nor did he who prepared less, find too little. But each one gathered according to what they were able to eat.
19 وقال لهم موسى لا يبقي احد منه الى الصباح.	19 And Moses said to them, “Let no one leave any of it behind until morning.”
20 لكنهم لم يسمعوا لموسى بل ابقى منه اناس الى الصباح. فتولّد فيه دود وانتن. فسخط عليهم موسى.	20 And they did not listen to him, but they left some of it behind until morning, and it began to swarm with worms, and it putrefied. And Moses became angry against them.
21 وكانوا يلتقطونه صباحا فصباحا كل واحد على حسب اكله. واذا حميت الشمس كان يذوب	21 Then each one collected, in the morning, as much as would be sufficient to eat. And after the sun became hot, it melted.
22 ثم كان في اليوم السادس انهم التقطوا خبزا مضاعفا عمرين للواحد. فجاء كل رؤساء الجماعة واخبروا موسى.	22 But on the sixth day, they collected a double portion, that is, two omers for each man. Then all the leaders among the multitude came, and they discoursed with Moses.
23 فقال لهم هذا ما قال الرب غدا عطلة سبت مقدس للرب. اخبزوا ما تخبزون واطبخوا ما تطبخون. وكل ما فضل ضعوه عندكم ليحفظ الى الغد.	23 And he said to them: “This is what the Lord has spoken: Tomorrow, the rest day of the Sabbath, has been sanctified to the Lord. Whatever would be done, do it now. And whatever would be cooked, cook it now. Then anything that will have been left over, store it until morning.”
24 فوضعوه الى الغد كما امر موسى. فلم ينتن ولا صار فيه دود.	24 And they did just as Moses had instructed, and it did not putrefy, nor were there any worms found in it.
25 فقال موسى كلوه اليوم لان للرب اليوم سبتا. اليوم لا تجدونه في الحقل.	25 And Moses said: “Eat it today, because it is the Sabbath of the Lord. Today it will not be found in the field.
26 ستة ايام تلتقطونه. واما اليوم السابع ففيه سبت. لا يوجد فيه	26 Gather for six days. But on the seventh day, it is the Sabbath of the Lord, for which reason it will not be found.”
27 وحدث في اليوم السابع ان بعض الشعب خرجوا ليلتقطوا فلم يجدوا.	27 And the seventh day arrived. And some of the people, going out to collect it, did not find it.
28 فقال الرب لموسى الى متى تأبون ان تحفظوا وصاياي وشرائعي.	28 Then the Lord said to Moses: “How long will you be unwilling to keep my commandments and my law?
29 انظروا. ان الرب اعطاكم السبت لذلك هو يعطيكم في اليوم السادس خبز يومين. اجلسوا كل واحد في مكانه. لا يخرج احد من مكانه في اليوم السابع.	29 See how the Lord has given you the Sabbath, and, because of this, on the sixth day he distributes to you a double portion. Let each one remain with his own, and let no one go forth from his place on the seventh day.”
30 فاستراح الشعب في اليوم السابع.	30 And the people kept the Sabbath on the seventh day.
31 ودعا بيت اسرائيل اسمه منّا. وهو كبزر الكزبرة ابيض وطعمه كرقاق بعسل	31 And the house of Israel called its name ‘Manna.’ It was like white coriander seed, and its taste was like wheat flour with honey.
32 وقال موسى هذا هو الشيء الذي امر به الرب. ملء العمر منه يكون للحفظ في اجيالكم. لكي يروا الخبز الذي اطعمتكم في البرية حين اخرجتكم من ارض مصر.	32 Then Moses said: “This is the word that the Lord has instructed: Fill an omer of it, and let it be kept for future generations hereafter, so that they may know the bread, with which I nourished you in the wilderness, when you had been led away from the land of Egypt.”
33 وقال موسى لهرون خذ قسطا واحدا واجعل فيه ملء العمر منّا وضعه امام الرب للحفظ في اجيالكم.	33 And Moses said to Aaron, “Take one vessel, and put manna into it, as much as an omer is able to hold. And store it in the sight of the Lord, to keep for your generations,
34 كما امر الرب موسى وضعه هرون امام الشهادة للحفظ.	34 just as the Lord instructed Moses.” And so, Aaron placed it in the tabernacle, in reserve.
35 واكل بنو اسرائيل المنّ اربعين سنة حتى جاءوا الى ارض عامرة. اكلوا المنّ حتى جاءوا الى طرف ارض كنعان.	35 Now the sons of Israel ate manna for forty years, until they arrived in a habitable land. With this food they were nourished, even until they touched the borders of the land of Canaan.
36 واما العمر فهو عشر الإيفة	36 Now an omer is a tenth part of an ephah.
