SMITH VAN DYKENEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 اذا خرجت للحرب على عدوك ورأيت خيلا ومراكب قوما اكثر منك فلا تخف منهم لان معك الرب الهك الذي اصعدك من ارض مصر.1 "When you go out to war against your enemies and you see horses and chariots and an army greater than your own, do not be afraid of them, for the LORD, your God, who brought you up from the land of Egypt, will be with you.
2 وعندما تقربون من الحرب يتقدم الكاهن ويخاطب الشعب2 "When you are about to go into battle, the priest shall come forward and say to the soldiers:
3 ويقول لهم اسمع يا اسرائيل. انتم قربتم اليوم من الحرب على اعدائكم. لا تضعف قلوبكم. لا تخافوا ولا ترتعدوا ولا ترهبوا وجوههم.3 'Hear, O Israel! Today you are going into battle against your enemies. Be not weakhearted or afraid; be neither alarmed nor frightened by them.
4 لان الرب الهكم سائر معكم لكي يحارب عنكم اعداءكم ليخلصكم.4 For it is the LORD, your God, who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies and give you victory.'
5 ثم يخاطب العرفاء الشعب قائلين من هو الرجل الذي بنى بيتا جديدا ولم يدشنه. ليذهب ويرجع الى بيته لئلا يموت في الحرب فيدشنه رجل آخر.5 "Then the officials shall say to the soldiers, 'Is there anyone who has built a new house and not yet had the housewarming? Let him return home, lest he die in battle and another dedicate it.
6 ومن هو الرجل الذي غرس كرما ولم يبتكره. ليذهب ويرجع الى بيته لئلا يموت في الحرب فيبتكره رجل آخر.6 Is there anyone who has planted a vineyard and never yet enjoyed its fruits? Let him return home, lest he die in battle and another enjoy its fruits in his stead.
7 ومن هو الرجل الذي خطب امرأة ولم يأخذها. ليذهب ويرجع الى بيته لئلا يموت في الحرب فياخذها رجل آخر.7 Is there anyone who has betrothed a woman and not yet taken her as his wife? Let him return home, lest he die in battle and another take her to wife.'
8 ثم يعود العرفاء يخاطبون الشعب ويقولون من هو الرجل الخائف والضعيف القلب. ليذهب ويرجع الى بيته لئلا تذوب قلوب اخوته مثل قلبه.8 In fine, the officials shall say to the soldiers, 'Is there anyone who is afraid and weakhearted? Let him return home, lest he make his fellows as fainthearted as himself.'
9 وعند فراغ العرفاء من مخاطبة الشعب يقيمون رؤساء جنود على راس الشعب.9 "When the officials have finished speaking to the soldiers, military officers shall be appointed over the army.
10 حين تقرب من مدينة لكي تحاربها استدعها الى الصلح.10 "When you march up to attack a city, first offer it terms of peace.
11 فان اجابتك الى الصلح وفتحت لك فكل الشعب الموجود فيها يكون لك للتسخير ويستعبد لك.11 If it agrees to your terms of peace and opens its gates to you, all the people to be found in it shall serve you in forced labor.
12 وان لم تسالمك بل عملت معك حربا فحاصرها.12 But if it refuses to make peace with you and instead offers you battle, lay siege to it,
13 واذا دفعها الرب الهك الى يدك فاضرب جميع ذكورها بحد السيف.13 and when the LORD, your God, delivers it into your hand, put every male in it to the sword;
14 واما النساء والاطفال والبهائم وكل ما في المدينة كل غنيمتها فتغتنمها لنفسك وتأكل غنيمة اعدائك التي اعطاك الرب الهك.14 but the women and children and livestock and all else in it that is worth plundering you may take as your booty, and you may use this plunder of your enemies which the LORD, your God, has given you.
15 هكذا تفعل بجميع المدن البعيدة منك جدا التي ليست من مدن هؤلاء الامم هنا.15 "That is how you shall deal with any city at a considerable distance from you, which does not belong to the peoples of this land.
16 واما مدن هؤلاء الشعوب التي يعطيك الرب الهك نصيبا فلا تستبق منها نسمة ما16 But in the cities of those nations which the LORD, your God, is giving you as your heritage, you shall not leave a single soul alive.
17 بل تحرّمها تحريما الحثيين والاموريين والكنعانيين والفرزّيين والحوّيين واليبوسيين كما امرك الرب الهك17 You must doom them all-the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites-as the LORD, your God, has commanded you,
18 لكي لا يعلّموكم ان تعملوا حسب جميع ارجاسهم التي عملوا لآلهتهم فتخطئوا الى الرب الهكم18 lest they teach you to make any such abominable offerings as they make to their gods, and you thus sin against the LORD, your God.
19 اذا حاصرت مدينة اياما كثيرة محاربا اياها لكي تأخذها فلا تتلف شجرها بوضع فاس عليه. انك منه تأكل. فلا تقطعه. لانه هل شجرة الحقل انسان حتى يذهب قدامك في الحصار.19 "When you are at war with a city and have to lay siege to it for a long time before you capture it, you shall not destroy its trees by putting an ax to them. You may eat their fruit, but you must not cut down the trees. After all, are the trees of the field men, that they should be included in your siege?
20 واما الشجر الذي تعرف انه ليس شجرا يؤكل منه فاياه تتلف وتقطع وتبني حصنا على المدينة التي تعمل معك حربا حتى تسقط20 However, those trees which you know are not fruit trees you may destroy, cutting them down to build siegeworks with which to reduce the city that is resisting you.
