Jeremiah 30

1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD:

1 اَلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي صَارَ إِلَى إِرْمِيَا مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا:

2 “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Write in a book all the words that I have spoken to you.

2 «هَكَذَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: ٱكْتُبْ كُلَّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهِ إِلَيْكَ فِي سِفْرٍ،

3 For behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will restore from captivity My people Israel and Judah, declares the LORD. I will restore them to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.’”

3 لِأَنَّهُ هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَأَرُدُّ سَبْيَ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، وَأُرْجِعُهُمْ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُ آبَاءَهُمْ إِيَّاهَا فَيَمْتَلِكُونَهَا».

4 These are the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and Judah.

4 فَهَذَا هُوَ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَعَنْ يَهُوذَا:

5 Yes, this is what the LORD says: “A cry of panic is heard—a cry of terror, not of peace.

5 «لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: صَوْتَ ٱرْتِعَادٍ سَمِعْنَا. خَوْفٌ وَلَا سَلَامٌ.

6 Ask now, and see: Can a male give birth? Why then do I see every man with his hands on his stomach like a woman in labor and every face turned pale?

6 اِسْأَلُوا وَٱنْظُرُوا إِنْ كَانَ ذَكَرٌ يَضَعُ! لِمَاذَا أَرَى كُلَّ رَجُلٍ يَدَاهُ عَلَى حَقْوَيْهِ كَمَاخِضٍ، وَتَحَوَّلَ كُلُّ وَجْهٍ إِلَى صُفْرَةٍ؟

7 How awful that day will be! None will be like it! It is the time of Jacob’s distress, but he will be saved out of it.

7 آهِ! لِأَنَّ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ عَظِيمٌ وَلَيْسَ مِثْلُهُ. وَهُوَ وَقْتُ ضِيقٍ عَلَى يَعْقُوبَ، وَلَكِنَّهُ سَيُخَلَّصُ مِنْهُ.

8 On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, I will break the yoke off their necks and tear off their bonds, and no longer will strangers enslave them.

8 وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، أَنِّي أَكْسِرُ نِيرَهُ عَنْ عُنُقِكَ، وَأَقْطَعُ رُبُطَكَ، وَلَا يَسْتَعْبِدُهُ بَعْدُ ٱلْغُرَبَاءُ،

9 Instead, they will serve the LORD their God and David their king, whom I will raise up for them.

9 بَلْ يَخْدِمُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَهُمْ وَدَاوُدَ مَلِكَهُمُ ٱلَّذِي أُقِيمُهُ لَهُمْ.

10 As for you, O Jacob My servant, do not be afraid, declares the LORD, and do not be dismayed, O Israel. For I will surely save you out of a distant place, your descendants from the land of their captivity! Jacob will return to quiet and ease, with no one to make him afraid.

10 «أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا عَبْدِي يَعْقُوبَ فَلَا تَخَفْ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَلَا تَرْتَعِبْ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، لِأَنِّي هَأَنَذَا أُخَلِّصُكَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ، وَنَسْلَكَ مِنْ أَرْضِ سَبْيِهِ، فَيَرْجِعُ يَعْقُوبُ وَيَطْمَئِنُّ وَيَسْتَرِيحُ وَلَا مُزْعِجَ.

11 For I am with you to save you, declares the LORD. Though I will completely destroy all the nations to which I have scattered you, I will not completely destroy you. Yet I will discipline you justly, and will by no means leave you unpunished.”

11 لِأَنِّي أَنَا مَعَكَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، لِأُخَلِّصَكَ. وَإِنْ أَفْنَيْتُ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ بَدَّدْتُكَ إِلَيْهِمْ، فَأَنْتَ لَا أُفْنِيكَ، بَلْ أُؤَدِّبُكَ بِٱلْحَقِّ، وَلَا أُبَرِّئُكَ تَبْرِئَةً.

12 For this is what the LORD says: “Your injury is incurable; your wound is grievous.

12 لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: كَسْرُكِ عَدِيمُ ٱلْجَبْرِ وَجُرْحُكِ عُضَالٌ.

13 There is no one to plead your cause, no remedy for your sores, no recovery for you.

13 لَيْسَ مَنْ يَقْضِي حَاجَتَكِ لِلْعَصْرِ. لَيْسَ لَكِ عَقَاقِيرُ رِفَادَةٍ.

14 All your lovers have forgotten you; they no longer seek you, for I have struck you as an enemy would, with the discipline of someone cruel, because of your great iniquity and your numerous sins.

14 قَدْ نَسِيَكِ كُلُّ مُحِبِّيكِ. إِيَّاكِ لَمْ يَطْلُبُوا. لِأَنِّي ضَرَبْتُكِ ضِرْبَةَ عَدُوٍّ، تَأْدِيبَ قَاسٍ، لِأَنَّ إِثْمَكِ قَدْ كَثُرَ، وَخَطَايَاكِ تَعَاظَمَتْ.

15 Why do you cry out over your wound? Your pain has no cure! Because of your great iniquity and your numerous sins I have done these things to you.

15 مَا بَالُكِ تَصْرُخِينَ بِسَبَبِ كَسْرِكِ؟ جُرْحُكِ عَدِيمُ ٱلْبَرْءِ، لِأَنَّ إِثْمَكِ قَدْ كَثُرَ، وَخَطَايَاكِ تَعَاظَمَتْ، قَدْ صَنَعْتُ هَذِهِ بِكِ.

16 Nevertheless, all who devour you will be devoured, and all your adversaries—every one of them—will go off into exile. Those who plundered you will be plundered, and all who raided you will be raided.

16 لِذَلِكَ يُؤْكَلُ كُلُّ آكِلِيكِ، وَيَذْهَبُ كُلُّ أَعْدَائِكِ قَاطِبَةً إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ، وَيَكُونُ كُلُّ سَالِبِيكِ سَلْبًا، وَأَدْفَعُ كُلَّ نَاهِبِيكِ لِلنَّهْبِ.

17 But I will restore your health and heal your wounds, declares the LORD, because they call you an outcast, Zion, for whom no one cares.”

17 لِأَنِّي أَرْفُدُكِ وَأَشْفِيكِ مِنْ جُرُوحِكِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. لِأَنَّهُمْ قَدْ دَعَوْكِ مَنْفِيَّةَ صِهْيَوْنَ ٱلَّتِي لَا سَائِلَ عَنْهَا.

18 This is what the LORD says: “I will restore the fortunes of Jacob’s tents and have compassion on his dwellings. And the city will be rebuilt on her own ruins, and the palace will stand in its rightful place.

18 «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا أَرُدُّ سَبْيَ خِيَامِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَأَرْحَمُ مَسَاكِنَهُ، وَتُبْنَى ٱلْمَدِينَةُ عَلَى تَلِّهَا، وَٱلْقَصْرُ يُسْكَنُ عَلَى عَادَتِهِ.

19 Thanksgiving will proceed from them, a sound of celebration. I will multiply them, and they will not be decreased; I will honor them, and they will not be belittled.

19 وَيَخْرُجُ مِنْهُمُ ٱلْحَمْدُ وَصَوْتُ ٱللَّاعِبِينَ، وَأُكَثِّرُهُمْ وَلَا يَقِلُّونَ، وَأُعَظِّمُهُمْ وَلَا يَصْغُرُونَ.

20 Their children will be as in days of old, and their congregation will be established before Me; and I will punish all their oppressors.

20 وَيَكُونُ بَنُوهُمْ كَمَا فِي ٱلْقَدِيمِ، وَجَمَاعَتُهُمْ تَثْبُتُ أَمَامِي، وَأُعَاقِبُ كُلَّ مُضَايِقِيهِمْ.

21 Their leader will be one of their own, and their ruler will arise from their midst. And I will bring him near, and he will approach Me, for who would dare on his own to approach Me?” declares the LORD.

21 وَيَكُونُ حَاكِمُهُمْ مِنْهُمْ، وَيَخْرُجُ وَالِيهِمْ مِنْ وَسْطِهِمْ، وَأُقَرِّبُهُ فَيَدْنُو إِلَيَّ، لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ هُوَ هَذَا ٱلَّذِي أَرْهَنَ قَلْبَهُ لِيَدْنُوَ إِلَيَّ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟

22 “And you will be My people, and I will be your God.”

22 وَتَكُونُونَ لِي شَعْبًا وَأَنَا أَكُونُ لَكُمْ إِلَهًا».

23 Behold, the storm of the LORD has gone out with fury, a whirlwind swirling down upon the heads of the wicked.

23 هُوَذَا زَوْبَعَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ تَخْرُجُ بِغَضَبٍ، نَوْءٌ جَارِفٌ. عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يَثُورُ.

24 The fierce anger of the LORD will not turn back until He has fully accomplished the purposes of His heart. In the days to come you will understand this.

24 لَا يَرْتَدُّ حُمُوُّ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ حَتَّى يَفْعَلَ، وَحَتَّى يُقِيمَ مَقَاصِدَ قَلْبِهِ. فِي آخِرِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ تَفْهَمُونَهَا.
