KING JAMES BIBLESMITH VAN DYKE
1 Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.1 وقال اليشع اسمعوا كلام الرب هكذا قال الرب في مثل هذا الوقت غدا تكون كيلة الدقيق بشاقل وكيلتا الشعير بشاقل في باب السامرة.
2 Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.2 وان جنديا للملك كان يستند على يده اجاب رجل الله وقال هوذا الرب يصنع كوى في السماء. هل يكون هذا الامر. فقال انك ترى بعينيك ولكن لا تاكل منه
3 And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?3 وكان اربعة رجال برص عند مدخل الباب فقال احدهم لصاحبه لماذا نحن جالسون هنا حتى نموت.
4 If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.4 اذا قلنا ندخل المدينة فالجوع في المدينة فنموت فيها. واذا جلسنا هنا نموت. فالآن هلم نسقط الى محلّة الاراميين فان استحيونا حيينا وان قتلونا متنا.
5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there.5 فقاموا في العشاء ليذهبوا الى محلّة الاراميين فجاءوا الى آخر محلة الاراميين فلم يكن هناك احد.
6 For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.6 فان الرب اسمع جيش الاراميين صوت مركبات وصوت خيل صوت جيش عظيم فقالوا الواحد لاخيه هوذا ملك اسرائيل قد استأجر ضدنا ملوك الحثيين وملوك المصريين ليأتوا علينا.
7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.7 فقاموا وهربوا في العشاء وتركوا خيامهم وخيلهم وحميرهم والمحلّة كما هي وهربوا لاجل نجاة انفسهم.
8 And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it.8 وجاء هؤلاء البرص الى آخر المحلّة ودخلوا خيمة واحدة فاكلوا وشربوا وحملوا منها فضة وذهبا وثيابا ومضوا وطمروها ثم رجعوا ودخلوا خيمة اخرى وحملوا منها ومضوا وطمروا.
9 Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.9 ثم قال بعضهم لبعض لسنا عاملين حسنا. هذا اليوم هو يوم بشارة ونحن ساكتون. فان انتظرنا الى ضوء الصباح يصادفنا شر. فهلم الآن ندخل ونخبر بيت الملك
10 So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they were.10 فجاءوا ودعوا بواب المدينة واخبروه قائلين. اننا دخلنا محلّة الاراميين فلم يكن هناك احد ولا صوت انسان ولكن خيل مربوطة وحمير مربوطة وخيام كما هي.
11 And he called the porters; and they told it to the king's house within.11 فدعا البوابين فاخبروا بيت الملك داخلا
12 And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we be hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall catch them alive, and get into the city.12 فقام الملك ليلا وقال لعبيده لاخبرنّكم ما فعل لنا الاراميون. علموا اننا جياع فخرجوا من المحلّة ليختبئوا في حقل قائلين اذا خرجوا من المدينة قبضنا عليهم احياء ودخلنا المدينة.
13 And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, I say, they are even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed:) and let us send and see.13 فاجاب واحد من عبيده وقال فليأخذوا خمسة من الخيل الباقية التي بقيت فيها. هي نظير كل جمهور اسرائيل الذين بقوا بها او هي نظير كل جمهور اسرائيل الذين فنوا. فنرسل ونرى.
14 They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.14 فأخذوا مركبتي خيل وارسل الملك وراء جيش الاراميين قائلا اذهبوا وانظروا.
15 And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.15 فانطلقوا وراءهم الى الاردن واذا كل الطريق ملآن ثيابا وآنية قد طرحها الاراميون من عجلتهم. فرجع الرسل واخبروا الملك.
16 And the people went out, and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.16 فخرج الشعب ونهبوا محلّة الاراميين. فكانت كيلة الدقيق بشاقل وكيلتا الشعير بشاقل حسب كلام الرب
17 And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.17 واقام الملك على الباب الجندي الذي كان يستند على يده فداسه الشعب في الباب فمات كما قال رجل الله الذي تكلم عند نزول الملك اليه.
18 And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria:18 فانه لما تكلم رجل الله الى الملك قائلا كيلتا شعير بشاقل وكيلة دقيق بشاقل تكون في مثل هذا الوقت غدا في باب السامرة
19 And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.19 واجاب الجندي رجل الله وقال هوذا الرب يصنع كوى في السماء هل يكون مثل هذا الأمر قال انك ترى بعينيك ولكنك لا تأكل منه.
20 And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died.20 فكان له كذلك. داسه الشعب في الباب فمات
