Deuteronomy 12

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 “These are the precepts and judgments which you must do in the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, will give to you, so that you may possess it during all the days that you shall walk upon the soil.	1 هذه هي الفرائض والاحكام التي تحفظون لتعملوها في الارض التي اعطاك الرب اله آبائك لتمتلكها كل الايام التي تحيون على الارض.
2 Overturn all the places where the nations, which you will possess, worshipped their gods on lofty mountains, and on hills, and under every leafy tree.	2 تخربون جميع الاماكن حيث عبدت الامم التي ترثونها آلهتها على الجبال الشامخة وعلى التلال وتحت كل شجرة خضراء.
3 Scatter their altars and break their statues. Burn their sacred groves with fire and crush their idols. Abolish their names from those places.	3 وتهدمون مذابحهم وتكسّرون انصابهم وتحرقون سواريهم بالنار وتقطعون تماثيل آلهتهم وتمحون اسمهم من ذلك المكان.
4 But you shall not do the same to the Lord your God.	4 لا تفعلوا هكذا للرب الهكم.
5 Instead, you shall approach the place which the Lord your God will choose among all your tribes, so that he may set his name there, and may dwell in that place.	5 بل المكان الذي يختاره الرب الهكم من جميع اسباطكم ليضع اسمه فيه سكناه تطلبون والى هناك تأتون
6 And you shall offer, in that place, your holocausts and victims, the tithes and first-fruits of your hands, and your vows and gifts, the firstborn of the cattle and of the sheep.	6 وتقدمون الى هناك محرقاتكم وذبائحكم وعشوركم ورفائع ايديكم ونذوركم ونوافلكم وابكار بقركم وغنمكم
7 And you shall eat it there, in the sight of the Lord your God. And you shall rejoice in all the things to which you shall set your hand: you and your household, which the Lord your God has blessed for you.	7 وتأكلون هناك امام الرب الهكم وتفرحون بكل ما تمتد اليه ايديكم انتم وبيوتكم كما بارككم الرب الهكم
8 You shall not do there the things that we are doing here today: each one doing what seems good to himself.	8 لا تعملوا حسب كل ما نحن عاملون هنا اليوم اي كل انسان مهما صلح في عينيه.
9 For even until the present time, you did not arrive at the rest and the possession, which the Lord your God will give to you.	9 لانكم لم تدخلوا حتى الآن الى المقرّ والنصيب اللذين يعطيكم الرب الهكم.
10 You shall cross over the Jordan, and you shall live in the land which the Lord your God will give to you, so that you may have rest from all the surrounding enemies, and so that you may live without any fear,	10 فمتى عبرتم الاردن وسكنتم الارض التي يقسمها لكم الرب الهكم واراحكم من جميع اعدائكم الذين حواليكم وسكنتم آمنين.
11 in the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may be in it. To that place, you shall bring all the things that I instruct you: holocausts, and victims, and tithes, and the first-fruits of your hands, and whatever is best among the gifts that you shall vow to the Lord.	11 فالمكان الذي يختاره الرب الهكم ليحل اسمه فيه تحملون اليه كل ما انا اوصيكم به محرقاتكم وذبائحكم وعشوركم ورفائع ايديكم وكل خيار نذوركم التي تنذرونها للرب.
12 In that place, you shall feast before the Lord your God: you, and your sons and daughters, your men and women servants, as well as the Levite who dwells in your cities. For he has no other portion or possession among you.	12 تفرحون امام الرب الهكم انتم وبنوكم وبناتكم وعبيدكم واماؤكم واللاوي الذي في ابوابكم لانه ليس له قسم ولا نصيب معكم
13 Take care that you do not offer your holocausts in any place that you see.	13 احترز من ان تصعد محرقاتك في كل مكان تراه.
14 Instead, you shall offer sacrifices in the place which the Lord will choose within one of your tribes, and you shall do whatsoever I instruct you.	14 بل في المكان الذي يختاره الرب في احد اسباطك. هناك تصعد محرقاتك وهناك تعمل كل ما انا اوصيك به.
15 So, if you wish to eat, and if the eating of flesh pleases you, then kill and eat according to the blessing of the Lord your God, which he has given to you, in your cities: you may eat it whether it is unclean, that is, having blemish or defect, or whether it is clean, that is, whole and without blemish, of the kind which is permitted to be offered, such as the roe deer and the stag.	15 ولكن من كل ما تشتهي نفسك تذبح وتأكل لحما في جميع ابوابك حسب بركة الرب الهك التي اعطاك. النجس والطاهر ياكلانه كالضبي والايل.
16 Only the blood you shall not eat. Instead, you shall pour it upon the ground like water.	16 واما الدم فلا تاكله. على الارض تسفكه كالماء.
17 You may not eat in your towns the tithes of your crops, and your wine and oil, the firstborn of your herds and your flocks, nor anything which you will vow, or which you will offer spontaneously, nor the first-fruits of your hands.	17 لا يحل لك ان تاكل في ابوابك عشر حنطتك وخمرك وزيتك ولا ابكار بقرك وغنمك ولا شيئا من نذورك التي تنذر ونوافلك ورفائع يدك.
18 But you shall eat these before the Lord your God, in the place which the Lord your God will choose: you, and your son, and your daughter, and your man servant and woman servant, and the Levite who dwells in your cities. And you shall rejoice and be refreshed in the sight of the Lord your God by all the things to which you will extend your hand.	18 بل امام الرب الهك تأكلها في المكان الذي يختاره الرب الهك انت وابنك وابنتك وعبدك وامتك واللاوي الذي في ابوابك وتفرح امام الرب الهك بكل ما امتدّت اليه يدك.
19 Be careful, lest you abandon the Levite, at anytime while you are living in the land.	19 احترز من ان تترك اللاوي كل ايامك على ارضك
20 When the Lord your God will have enlarged your borders, just as he has spoken to you, and when you would eat the flesh that your soul desires,	20 اذا وسّع الرب الهك تخومك كما كلمك وقلت آكل لحما. لان نفسك تشتهي ان تأكل لحما. فمن كل ما تشتهي نفسك تأكل لحما.
21 but if the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may be there, is far away, you may kill, from your herds and your flocks which you will have, in the manner I have instructed to you, and you may eat in your towns, as it pleases you.	21 اذا كان المكان الذي يختاره الرب الهك ليضع اسمه فيه بعيدا عنك فاذبح من بقرك وغنمك التي اعطاك الرب كما اوصيتك وكل في ابوابك من كل ما اشتهت نفسك.
22 Just as the roe deer and the stag may be eaten, so also may you eat these: you may eat both the clean and the unclean alike.	22 كما يؤكل الضبي والايل هكذا تاكله. النجس والطاهر ياكلانه سواء.
23 Only beware of this: you may not eat the blood. For their blood is for the soul. And because of this, you must not eat the soul with the flesh.	23 لكن احترز ان لا تأكل الدم لان الدم هو النفس فلا تاكل النفس مع اللحم.
24 Instead, you shall pour it upon the ground like water,	24 لا تاكله. على الارض تسفكه كالماء.
25 so that it may be well with you, and with your sons after you, when you will do what is pleasing in the sight of the Lord.	25 لا تاكله لكي يكون لك ولاولادك من بعدك خير اذا عملت الحق في عيني الرب.
26 But the things that you have sanctified and vowed to the Lord, you shall take up and bring to the place which the Lord will choose.	26 واما اقداسك التي لك ونذورك فتحملها وتذهب الى المكان الذي يختاره الرب.
27 And you shall offer your oblations of flesh and of blood upon the altar of the Lord your God. You shall poor out the blood of your victims upon the altar. And you yourself shall eat the flesh.	27 فتعمل محرقاتك اللحم والدم على مذبح الرب الهك. واما ذبائحك فيسفك دمها على مذبح الرب الهك واللحم تاكله.
28 Observe and heed all the things that I instruct to you, so that it may be well with you, and with your sons after you, continually, when you will do what is good and pleasing in the sight of the Lord your God.	28 احفظ واسمع جميع هذه الكلمات التي انا اوصيك بها لكي يكون لك ولاولادك من بعدك خير الى الابد اذا عملت الصالح والحق في عيني الرب الهك
29 When the Lord your God will have abolished before your face the nations, which you shall enter so as to possess them, and when you will possess them and live in their land,	29 متى قرض الرب الهك من امامك الامم الذين انت ذاهب اليهم لترثهم وورثتهم وسكنت ارضهم
30 be careful that you do not imitate them, after they have been overturned at your arrival, and that you do not seek their ceremonies, saying: ‘Just as these nations have worshipped their gods, so also will I worship.’	30 فاحترز من ان تصاد وراءهم من بعد ما بادوا من امامك ومن ان تسأل عن آلهتهم قائلا كيف عبد هؤلاء الامم آلهتهم فانا ايضا افعل هكذا.
31 You shall not act in like manner toward the Lord your God. For they have done to their gods all the abominations that the Lord spurns, offering their sons and daughters, and burning them with fire.	31 لا تعمل هكذا للرب الهك لانهم قد عملوا لآلهتهم كل رجس لدى الرب مما يكرهه اذ احرقوا حتى بنيهم وبناتهم بالنار لآلهتهم.
32 What I command to you, this only shall you do, for the Lord. You may neither add nor subtract anything.”	32 كل الكلام الذي اوصيكم به احرصوا لتعملوه. لا تزد عليه ولا تنقص منه
