Deuteronomy 11

1 You shall therefore love the LORD your God and always keep His charge, His statutes, His ordinances, and His commandments.

1 فَأَحِبُّوا الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ وَحَافِظُوا عَلَى حُقُوقِهِ، وَأَطِيعُوا فَرَائِضَهُ وَأَحْكَامَهُ وَوَصَايَاهُ دَائِماً.

2 Know this day that it is not your children who have known and seen the discipline of the LORD your God: His greatness, His mighty hand, and His outstretched arm;

2 وَاعْلَمُوا الْيَوْمَ أَنَّ حَدِيثِي لَيْسَ مُوَجَّهاً لأَبْنَائِكُمُ الَّذِينَ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا وَلا اخْتَبَرُوا تَأْدِيبَ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَلا شَهِدُوا عَظَمَتَهُ وَقُوَّتَهُ الشَّدِيدَةَ وَقُدْرَتَهُ الْفَائِقَةَ،

3 the signs and works He did in Egypt to Pharaoh king of Egypt and all his land;

3 وَلا آيَاتِهِ وَمُعْجِزَاتِهِ الَّتِي أَجْرَاهَا فِي مِصْرَ عَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَعَلَى أَرْضِهِ،

4 what He did to the Egyptian army and horses and chariots when He made the waters of the Red Sea engulf them as they pursued you, and how He destroyed them completely, even to this day;

4 وَالَّتِي صَنَعَهَا بِجَيْشِ مِصْرَ وَخَيْلِهِمْ وَمَرْكَبَاتِهِمْ، حَيْثُ جَعَلَ مِيَاهَ الْبَحْرِ الأَحْمَرِ تَغْمُرُهُمْ حِينَ سَعَوْا وَرَاءَكُمْ، فَأَهْلَكَهُمُ الرَّبُّ.

5 what He did for you in the wilderness until you reached this place;

5 وَالَّتِي عَمِلَهَا لَكُمْ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ حَتَّى وَصَلْتُمْ إِلَى هَذَا الْمَكَانِ،

6 and what He did in the midst of all the Israelites to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab the Reubenite, when the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, their households, their tents, and every living thing that belonged to them.

6 وَالَّتِي أَنْزَلَهَا بِدَاثَانَ وَأَبِيرَامَ ابْنَيْ أَلِيآبَ مِنْ سِبْطِ رَأُوبَيْنَ، اللَّذَيْنِ انْشَقَّتِ الأَرْضُ وَابْتَلَعَتْهُمَا مَعَ عَائِلَتَيْهِمَا وَخِيَامِهِمَا وَمُمْتَلَكَاتِهِمَا، عَلَى مَشْهَدِ كُلِّ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ،

7 For it is your own eyes that have seen every great work that the LORD has done.

7 بَلْ لَكُمْ خَاصَّةً لأَنَّ أَعْيُنَكُمْ أَنْتُمْ هِيَ الَّتِي شَهِدَتْ عَظَائِمَ الرَّبِّ الَّتِي أَجْرَاهَا.

8 You shall therefore keep every commandment I am giving you today, so that you may have the strength to go in and possess the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess,

8 لِهَذَا أَطِيعُوا كُلَّ الْوَصَايَا الَّتِي أَوْصَيْتُكُمْ بِها الْيَوْمَ، لِتَكُونَ لَدَيْكُمُ الْقُوَّةُ لِدُخُولِ وَامْتِلاكِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَنْتُمْ مَاضُونَ إِلَيْهَا لِتَرِثُوهَا،

9 and so that you may live long in the land that the LORD swore to your fathers to give them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.

9 وَلِكَيْ تُطِيلُوا أَيَّامَكُمْ عَلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَقْسَمَ الرَّبُّ لِآبَائِكُمْ أَنْ يُعْطِيَهَا لَهُمْ وَلِنَسْلِهِمْ، الأَرْضِ التي تَفِيضُ لَبَناً وَعَسَلاً.

10 For the land that you are entering to possess is not like the land of Egypt, from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and irrigated on foot, like a vegetable garden.

10 لأَنَّ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي تُوْشِكُونَ الدُّخُولَ إِلَيْهَا لامْتِلاكِهَا لَا تُمَاثِلُ أَرْضَ مِصْرَ الَّتِي خَرَجْتُمْ مِنْهَا، حَيْثُ كُنْتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَ زَرْعَكُمْ وَتَرْوُونَهُ (بِفَتْحِ سُدُودِ الْقَنَوَاتِ الصَّغِيرَةِ) بِأَرْجُلِكُمْ، وَكَأَنَّهُ بُسْتَانُ بُقُولٍ.

11 But the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess is a land of mountains and valleys that drinks in the rain from heaven.

11 بَلِ الأَرْضُ الَّتِي أَنْتُمْ مُقْبِلُونَ عَلَيْهَا لاِمْتِلاكِهَا هِيَ أَرْضُ جِبَالٍ وَأَوْدِيَةٍ، تَرْتَوِي مِنْ مَطَرِ السَّمَاءِ.

12 It is a land for which the LORD your God cares; the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning to the end of the year.

12 أَرْضٌ يَعْتَنِي بِها الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ، إذْ تَرْعَاهَا عَيْنَاهُ دَائِماً مِنْ أَوَّلِ السَّنَةِ حَتَّى آخِرِهَا.

13 So if you carefully obey the commandments I am giving you today, to love the LORD your God and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul,

13 فَإِذَا أَطَعْتُمُ الْوَصَايَا الَّتِي أُوصِيكُمْ بِها الْيَوْمَ، وَأَحْبَبْتُمُ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ وَعَبَدْتُمُوهُ مِنْ كُلِّ قُلُوبِكُمْ وَمِنْ كُلِّ نُفُوسِكُمْ،

14 then I will provide rain for your land in season, the autumn and spring rains, that you may gather your grain, new wine, and oil.

14 فَإِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَسْكُبُ عَلَى أَرْضِكُمُ الْمَطَرَ الْمُبَكِّرَ وَالْمُتَأَخِّرَ فِي أَوَانِهِ، فَتَجْمَعُونَ قَمْحَكُمْ وَخَمْرَكُمْ، وَزَيْتَكُمْ،

15 And I will provide grass in the fields for your livestock, and you will eat and be satisfied.

15 وَيُنْبِتُ لِبَهَائِمِكُمْ عُشْباً فِي حُقُولِكُمْ، فَتَأْكُلُونَ أَنْتُمْ وَتَشْبَعُونَ.

16 But be careful that you are not enticed to turn aside to worship and bow down to other gods,

16 وَلَكِنْ إِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تَغْوِيَ قُلُوبُكُمْ فَتَزِيغُوا وَتَعْبُدُوا آلِهَةً أُخْرَى وَتَسْجُدُوا لَهَا،

17 or the anger of the LORD will be kindled against you. He will shut the heavens so that there will be no rain, nor will the land yield its produce, and you will soon perish from the good land that the LORD is giving you.

17 فَيَحْتَدِمُ غَضَبُ الرَّبِّ عَلَيْكُمْ، وَيُغْلِقُ السَّمَاءَ، وَيَمْنَعُ الْمَطَرَ عَنِ الانْهِمَارِ، فَلا تُعْطِي الأَرْضُ غَلَتَهَا فَتَفْنَوْنَ سَرِيعاً عَنِ الأَرْضِ الْخَصِيبَةِ الَّتِي وَهَبَهَا لَكُمُ الرَّبُّ.

18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as reminders on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.

18 فَثَبِّتُوا كَلِمَاتِي هَذِهِ عَلَى قُلُوبِكُمْ، وَارْبِطُوهَا عَلامَةً عَلَى أَيْدِيكُمْ، وَاعْصِبُوا بِها جِبَاهَكُمْ،

19 Teach them to your children, speaking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

19 وَعَلِّمُوهَا لأَوْلادِكُمْ، وَتَحَدَّثُوا بِها حِينَ تَكُونُونَ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ، وَحِينَ تَسِيرُونَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، وَحِينَ تَأْوُونَ إِلَى فِرَاشِكُمْ، وَحِينَ تَنْهَضُونَ،

20 Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates,

20 وَاكْتُبُوهَا عَلَى قَوَائِمِ أَبْوَابِ بُيُوتِكُمْ وَبَوَّابَاتِ مُدُنِكُمْ،

21 so that as long as the heavens are above the earth, your days and those of your children may be multiplied in the land that the LORD swore to give your fathers.

21 لِكَيْ تَطُولَ أَيَّامُكُمْ وَأَيَّامُ أَوْلادِكُمْ عَلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي حَلَفَ الرَّبُّ لِآبَائِكُمْ أَنْ يَهَبَهَا لَهُمْ، فَتَكُونَ فِي كَثْرَتِهَا كَأَيَّامِ السَّمَاءِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ.

22 For if you carefully keep all these commandments I am giving you to follow—to love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways, and to hold fast to Him—

22 لأَنَّهُ إِذَا أَطَعْتُمْ جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ الْوَصَايَا الَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِها لِتُمَارِسُوهَا، وَأَحْبَبْتُمُ الرَّبَّ وَسَلَكْتُمْ فِي جَمِيعِ سُبُلِهِ وَتَمَسَّكْتُمْ بِهِ،

23 then the LORD will drive out all these nations before you, and you will dispossess nations greater and stronger than you.

23 يَطْرُدُ الرَّبُّ جَمِيعَ تِلْكَ الأُمَمِ مِنْ أَمَامِكُمْ، فَتَرِثُونَ شُعُوباً أَكْبَرَ وَأَعْظَمَ مِنْكُمْ.

24 Every place where the sole of your foot treads will be yours. Your territory will extend from the wilderness to Lebanon, and from the Euphrates River to the Western Sea.

24 وَكُلُّ مَوْضِعٍ تَطَأُهُ أَقْدَامُكُمْ يُصْبِحُ لَكُمْ، فَتَكُونُ حُدُودُكُمْ مِنَ الصَّحْرَاءِ فِي الْجَنُوبِ إِلَى لُبْنَانَ، وَمِنْ نَهْرِ الْفُرَاتِ إِلَى الْبَحْرِ الْمُتَوَسِّطِ غَرْباً.

25 No man will be able to stand against you; the LORD your God will put the fear and dread of you upon all the land, wherever you set foot, as He has promised you.

25 وَلا يَجْرُؤُ إِنْسَانٌ أَنْ يُقَاوِمَكُمْ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ يَجْعَلُ الْخَوْفَ وَالرُّعْبَ مِنْكُمْ يَسُودَانِ عَلَى كُلِّ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي تَطَأُونَهَا، كَمَا وَعَدَكُمْ.

26 See, today I am setting before you a blessing and a curse—

26 انْظُرُوا هَا أَنَا أُخَيِّرُكُمُ الْيَوْمَ بَيْنَ الْبَرَكَةِ وَاللَّعْنَةِ:

27 a blessing if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God that I am giving you today,

27 الْبَرَكَةُ لَكُمْ إِنْ أَطَعْتُمْ وَصَايَا الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمُ الَّتِي أَنَا أَوْصَيْتُكُمْ بِها الْيَوْمَ،

28 but a curse if you disobey the commandments of the LORD your God and turn aside from the path I command you today by following other gods, which you have not known.

28 وَاللَّعْنَةُ إِنْ عَصَيْتُمْ وَصَايَا الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَضَلَلْتُمْ عَنِ الطَّرِيقِ الَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكُمْ بِها الْيَوْمَ، وَعَبَدْتُمْ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى غَرِيبَةً عَنْكُمْ.

29 When the LORD your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess, you are to proclaim the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal.

29 إِذَا أَتَى بِكُمُ الرَّبُّ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي تُوْشِكُونَ الدُّخُولَ إِلَيْهَا لامْتِلاكِهَا، فَأَعْلِنُوا الْبَرَكَةَ مِنْ عَلَى جَبَلِ جِرِزِّيمَ، وَاللَّعْنَةَ مِنْ عَلَى جَبَلِ عِيبَالَ.

30 Are not these mountains across the Jordan, west of the road toward the sunset, in the land of the Canaanites who live in the Arabah opposite Gilgal near the Oak of Moreh?

30 أَوَ لَيْسَ هُمَا فِي غَرْبِيِّ نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، وَرَاءَ الطَّرِيقِ الْمُتَّجِهَةِ نَحْوَ غُرُوبِ الشَّمْسِ فِي أَرْضِ الْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ الْمُسْتَوْطِنِينَ فِي الْعَرَبَةِ مُقَابِلَ الْجِلْجَالِ عِنْدَ بَلُّوطَاتِ مُورَةَ؟

31 For you are about to cross the Jordan to enter and possess the land that the LORD your God is giving you. When you take possession of it and settle in it,

31 لأَنَّكُمْ عَابِرُونَ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ لِتَدْخُلُوا لامْتِلاكِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي يَهَبُهَا لَكُمُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ، فَتَرِثُونَهَا وَتُقِيمُونَ فِيهَا.

32 be careful to follow all the statutes and ordinances that I am setting before you today.

32 فَأَطِيعُوا جَمِيعَ الْفَرَائِضِ وَالأَحْكَامِ الَّتِي سَنَنْتُهَا الْيَوْمَ أَمَامَكُمْ لِتُمَارِسُوهَا.
