Smith–Van Dyck Arabic Bible (فان دايك)
1Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
1كَانَ يُوآشُ ٱبْنَ سَبْعِ سِنِينَ حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ ظَبْيَةُ مِنْ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ.
2And Joash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
2وَعَمِلَ يُوآشُ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ.
3And Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he begat sons and daughters.
3وَٱتَّخَذَ يَهُويَادَاعُ لَهُ ٱمْرَأَتَيْنِ فَوَلَدَ بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ.
4¶ And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to repair the house of the LORD .
4وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِ يُوآشَ أَنْ يُجَدِّدَ بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ.
5And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that ye hasten the matter. Howbeit the Levites hastened it not.
5فَجَمَعَ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱخْرُجُوا إِلَى مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا وَٱجْمَعُوا مِنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِضَّةً لِأَجْلِ تَرْمِيمِ بَيْتِ إِلَهِكُمْ مِنْ سَنَةٍ إِلَى سَنَةٍ، وَبَادِرُوا أَنْتُمْ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ». فَلَمْ يُبَادِرِ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ.
6And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of the LORD , and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?
6فَدَعَا ٱلْمَلِكُ يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلرَّأْسَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَطْلُبْ مِنَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ أَنْ يَأْتُوا مِنْ يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ بِجِزْيَةِ مُوسَى عَبْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَجَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِخَيْمَةِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ؟
7For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up the house of God; and also all the dedicated things of the house of the LORD did they bestow upon Baalim.
7لِأَنَّ بَنِي عَثَلْيَا ٱلْخَبِيثَةِ قَدْ هَدَمُوا بَيْتَ ٱللهِ، وَصَيَّرُوا كُلَّ أَقْدَاسِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِلْبَعْلِيمِ».
8And at the king’s commandment they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the LORD .
8وَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ فَعَمِلُوا صُنْدُوقًا وَجَعَلُوهُ فِي بَابِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ خَارِجًا،
9And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in to the LORD the collection that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness.
9وَنَادَوْا فِي يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ بِأَنْ يَأْتُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ بِجِزْيَةِ مُوسَى عَبْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْمَفْرُوضَةِ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ.
10And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.
10فَفَرِحَ كُلُّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَأَدْخَلُوا وَأَلْقَوْا فِي ٱلصُّنْدُوقِ حَتَّى ٱمْتَلَأَ.
11Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king’s office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the high priest’s officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to his place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
11وَحِينَمَا كَانَ يُؤْتَى بِٱلصُّنْدُوقِ إِلَى وَكَالَةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ بِيَدِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ، عِنْدَمَا يَرَوْنَ أَنَّ ٱلْفِضَّةَ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ، كَانَ يَأْتِي كَاتِبُ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَوَكِيلُ ٱلْكَاهِنِ ٱلرَّأْسِ وَيُفْرِغَانِ ٱلصُّنْدُوقَ، ثُمَّ يَحْمِلَانِهِ وَيَرُدَّانِهِ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ. هَكَذَا كَانُوا يَفْعَلُونَ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا، حَتَّى جَمَعُوا فِضَّةً بِكَثْرَةٍ.
12And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD , and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the LORD , and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of the LORD .
12وَدَفَعَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ وَيَهُويَادَاعُ لِعَامِلِي شُغْلِ خِدْمَةِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَكَانُوا يَسْتَأْجِرُونَ نَحَّاتِينَ وَنَجَّارِينَ لِتَجْدِيدِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلِلْعَامِلِينَ فِي ٱلْحَدِيدِ وَٱلنُّحَاسِ أَيْضًا لِتَرْمِيمِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ.
13So the workmen wrought, and the work was perfected by them, and they set the house of God in his state, and strengthened it.
13فَعَمِلَ عَامِلُو ٱلشُّغْلِ وَنَجَحَ ٱلْعَمَلُ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ، وَأَقَامُوا بَيْتَ ٱللهِ عَلَى رَسْمِهِ وَثَبَّتُوهُ.
14And when they had finished it , they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of the LORD , even vessels to minister, and to offer withal , and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.
14وَلَمَّا أَكْمَلُوا أَتَوْا إِلَى مَا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَيَهُويَادَاعَ بِبَقِيَّةِ ٱلْفِضَّةِ وَعَمِلُوهَا آنِيَةً لِبَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، آنِيَةَ خِدْمَةٍ وَإِصْعَادٍ وَصُحُونًا وَآنِيَةَ ذَهَبٍ وَفِضَّةٍ. وَكَانُوا يُصْعِدُونَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ دَائِمًا كُلَّ أَيَّامِ يَهُويَادَاعَ.
15¶ But Jehoiada waxed old, and was full of days when he died; an hundred and thirty years old was he when he died.
15وَشَاخَ يَهُويَادَاعُ وَشَبِعَ مِنَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ وَمَاتَ. كَانَ ٱبْنَ مِئَةٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً عِنْدَ وَفَاتِهِ.
16And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God, and toward his house.
16فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ مَعَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ لِأَنَّهُ عَمِلَ خَيْرًا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمَعَ ٱللهِ وَبَيْتِهِ.
17Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them.
17وَبَعْدَ مَوْتِ يَهُويَادَاعَ جَاءَ رُؤَسَاءُ يَهُوذَا وَسَجَدُوا لِلْمَلِكِ. حِينَئِذٍ سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لَهُمْ.
18And they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers, and served groves and idols: and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass.
18وَتَرَكُوا بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ آبَائِهِمْ وَعَبَدُوا ٱلسَّوَارِيَ وَٱلْأَصْنَامَ، فَكَانَ غَضَبٌ عَلَى يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ لِأَجْلِ إِثْمِهِمْ هَذَا.
19Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again unto the LORD ; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear.
19وَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنْبِيَاءَ لِإِرْجَاعِهِمْ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ، وَأَشْهَدُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمْ يُصْغُوا.
20And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, which stood above the people, and said unto them, Thus saith God, Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD , that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken the LORD , he hath also forsaken you.
20وَلَبِسَ رُوحُ ٱللهِ زَكَرِيَّا بْنَ يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلْكَاهِنَ فَوَقَفَ فَوْقَ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱللهُ: لِمَاذَا تَتَعَدَّوْنَ وَصَايَا ٱلرَّبِّ فَلَا تُفْلِحُونَ؟ لِأَنَّكُمْ تَرَكْتُمُ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ تَرَكَكُمْ».
21And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the LORD .
21فَفَتَنُوا عَلَيْهِ وَرَجَمُوهُ بِحِجَارَةٍ بِأَمْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي دَارِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ.
22Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The LORD look upon it , and require it .
22وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ يُوآشُ ٱلْمَلِكُ ٱلْمَعْرُوفَ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَهُ يَهُويَادَاعُ أَبُوهُ مَعَهُ، بَلْ قَتَلَ ٱبْنَهُ. وَعِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ قَالَ: «ٱلرَّبُّ يَنْظُرُ وَيُطَالِبُ».
23¶ And it came to pass at the end of the year, that the host of Syria came up against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the king of Damascus.
23وَفِي مَدَارِ ٱلسَّنَةِ صَعِدَ عَلَيْهِ جَيْشُ أَرَامَ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ وَأَهْلَكُوا كُلَّ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَجَمِيعَ غَنِيمَتِهِمْ أَرْسَلُوهَا إِلَى مَلِكِ دِمَشْقَ.
24For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men, and the LORD delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD God of their fathers. So they executed judgment against Joash.
24لِأَنَّ جَيْشَ أَرَامَ جَاءَ بِشِرْذِمَةٍ قَلِيلَةٍ، وَدَفَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَدِهِمْ جَيْشًا كَثِيرًا جِدًّا لِأَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ آبَائِهِمْ. فَأَجْرَوْا قَضَاءً عَلَى يُوآشَ.
25And when they were departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases,) his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.
25وَعِنْدَ ذَهَابِهِمْ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوهُ بِأَمْرَاضٍ كَثِيرَةٍ، فَتَنَ عَلَيْهِ عَبِيدُهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ دِمَاءِ بَنِي يَهُويَادَاعَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ، وَقَتَلُوهُ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ فَمَاتَ. فَدَفَنُوهُ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، وَلَمْ يَدْفِنُوهُ فِي قُبُورِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ.
26And these are they that conspired against him; Zabad the son of Shimeath an Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith a Moabitess.
26وَهَذَانِ هُمَا ٱلْفَاتِنَانِ عَلَيْهِ: زَابَادُ بْنُ شِمْعَةَ ٱلْعَمُّونِيَّةِ، وَيَهُوزَابَادُ بْنُ شِمْرِيتَ ٱلْمُوآبِيَّةِ.
27¶ Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid upon him, and the repairing of the house of God, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
27وَأَمَّا بَنُوهُ وَكَثْرَةُ مَا حُمِلَ عَلَيْهِ وَمَرَمَّةُ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ، هَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي مِدْرَسِ سِفْرِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ. وَمَلَكَ أَمَصْيَا ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ
