Geremia (ارميا) 19

SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 هكذا قال الرب. اذهب واشتر ابريق فخاري من خزف وخذ من شيوخ الشعب ومن شيوخ الكهنة	1 Thus says the Lord: “Go, and take a potter’s earthen bottle from the elders of the people and from the elders of the priests.
2 واخرج الى وادي ابن هنوم الذي عند مدخل باب الفخّار وناد هناك بالكلمات التي اكلمك بها.	2 And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is near the entrance to the earthen gate, and there you shall proclaim the words that I will speak to you.
3 وقل اسمعوا كلمة الرب يا ملوك يهوذا وسكان اورشليم. هكذا قال رب الجنود اله اسرائيل. هانذا جالب على هذا الموضع شرا كل من سمع به تطن اذناه.	3 And you shall say: Listen to the word of the Lord, O kings of Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will lead an affliction over this place, so much so that it will ring in the ears of all who hear about it.
4 من اجل انهم تركوني وانكروا هذا الموضع وبخروا فيه لآلهة اخرى لم يعرفوها هم ولا آباؤهم ولا ملوك يهوذا وملأوا هذا الموضع من دم الازكياء	4 For they have abandoned me, and they have made this place foreign, and they have offered libations in it to foreign gods, whom neither they, nor their fathers, nor the kings of Judah have known. And they have filled this place with the blood of the innocent.
5 وبنوا مرتفعات للبعل ليحرقوا اولادهم بالنار محرقات للبعل الذي لم اوص ولا تكلمت به ولا صعد على قلبي.	5 And they have built the exalted places of Baal, in order to burn their children with fire as a holocaust to Baal, something that I did not instruct or speak of, nor did it enter into my heart.
6 لذلك ها ايام تأتي يقول الرب ولا يدعى بعد هذا الموضع توفة ولا وادي ابن هنوم بل وادي القتل.	6 Because of this, behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when this place will no longer be called Topheth, or the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter.
7 وانقض مشورة يهوذا واورشليم في هذا الموضع واجعلهم يسقطون بالسيف امام اعدائهم وبيد طالبي نفوسهم واجعل جثثهم اكلا لطيور السماء ولوحوش الارض.	7 And I will scatter the counsel of Judah and of Jerusalem in this place. And I will overthrow them with the sword, in the sight of their enemies and by the hand of those who seek their lives. And I will give their carcasses to the birds of the air and to the beasts of the land as food.
8 واجعل هذه المدينة للدهش والصفير. كل عابر بها يدهش ويصفر من اجل كل ضرباتها.	8 And I will set this city amid stupor and hissing. Everyone who passes by it will be stupefied, and they will hiss over all its wounds.
9 واطعمهم لحم بنيهم ولحم بناتهم فياكلون كل واحد لحم صاحبه في الحصار والضيق الذي يضايقهم به اعداؤهم وطالبو نفوسهم.	9 And I will feed them with the flesh of their sons and with the flesh of their daughters. And each one of them will eat the flesh of his friend during the blockade and the embargo by which their enemies, and those who seek their lives, will enclose them.
10 ثم تكسر الابريق امام اعين القوم الذين يسيرون معك	10 And you shall crush the bottle in the sight of the men who will go with you.
11 وتقول لهم. هكذا قال رب الجنود. هكذا اكسر هذا الشعب وهذه المدينة كما يكسر وعاء الفخاري بحيث لا يمكن جبره بعد وفي توفة يدفنون حتى لا يكون موضع للدفن.	11 And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord of hosts: In the same way, I will crush this people and this city, just as the potter’s vessel was crushed and cannot be made whole again. And they will be buried at Topheth, because there will be no other place for burial.
12 هكذا اصنع لهذا الموضع يقول الرب ولسكانه واجعل هذه المدينة مثل توفه.	12 So will I do to this place and to its inhabitants, says the Lord. And I will make this city to be like Topheth.
13 وتكون بيوت اورشليم وبيوت ملوك يهوذا كموضع توفه نجسة كل البيوت التي بخروا على سطوحها لكل جند السماء وسكبوا سكائب لآلهة اخرى	13 And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be unclean, just like the place of Topheth: all the houses on whose roofs they sacrificed to all the armies of heaven and poured out libations to strange gods.”
14 ثم جاء ارميا من توفه التي ارسله الرب اليها ليتنبأ ووقف في دار بيت الرب وقال لكل الشعب	14 Then Jeremiah arrived from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the atrium of the house of the Lord, and he said to all the people:
15 هكذا قال رب الجنود اله اسرائيل. هانذا جالب على هذه المدينة وعلى كل قراها كل الشر الذي تكلمت به عليها لانهم صلّبوا رقابهم فلم يسمعوا لكلامي	15 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will lead over this community, and over all its cities, all the evils that I have spoken against it. For they have hardened their necks, so that they would not heed my words.”
