¹Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the house of Yahweh, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.

¹وسمع فشحور بن امّير الكاهن. وهو ناظر اول في بيت الرب. ارميا يتنبأ بهذه الكلمات.

²Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of Yahweh.

²فضرب فشحور ارميا النبي وجعله في المقطرة التي في باب بنيامين الاعلى الذي عند بيت الرب.

³It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, Yahweh has not called your name Pashhur, but Magormissabib.

³وكان في الغد ان فشحور اخرج ارميا من المقطرة. فقال له ارميا لم يدع الرب اسمك فشحور بل مجور مسّا بيب.

⁴For thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it; and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to Babylon, and shall kill them with the sword.

⁴لانه هكذا قال الرب. هانذا اجعلك خوفا لنفسك ولكل محبيك فيسقطون بسيف اعدائهم وعيناك تنظران وادفع كل يهوذا ليد ملك بابل فيسبيهم الى بابل ويضربهم بالسيف.

⁵Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all the precious things of it, yes, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and they shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.

⁵وادفع كل ثروة هذه المدينة وكل تعبها وكل مثمناتها وكل خزائن ملوك يهوذا ادفعها ليد اعدائهم فيغنمونها وياخذونها ويحضرونها الى بابل.

⁶You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into captivity; and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die, and there you shall be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.

⁶وانت يا فشحور وكل سكان بيتك تذهبون في السبي وتأتي الى بابل وهناك تموت وهناك تدفن انت وكل محبيك الذين تنبأت لهم بالكذب

⁷Yahweh, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded; you are stronger than I, and have prevailed: I am become a laughing-stock all the day, every one mocks me.

⁷قد اقنعتني يا رب فاقتنعت وألححت عليّ فغلبت. صرت للضحك كل النهار كل واحد استهزأ بي.

⁸For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, Violence and destruction! because the word of Yahweh is made a reproach to me, and a derision, all the day.

⁸لاني كلما تكلمت صرخت. ناديت ظلم واغتصاب. لان كلمة الرب صارت لي للعار وللسخرة كل النهار.

⁹If I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can’t.

⁹فقلت لا اذكره ولا انطق بعد باسمه. فكان في قلبي كنار محرقة محصورة في عظامي فمللت من الامساك ولم استطع

¹⁰For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. Denounce, and we will denounce him, say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; perhaps he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.

¹⁰لاني سمعت مذمة من كثيرين. خوف من كل جانب. يقولون اشتكوا فنشتكي عليه. كل اصحابي يراقبون ظلعي قائلين لعله يطغى فنقدر عليه وننتقم منه.

¹¹But Yahweh is with me as an awesome mighty one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten.

¹¹ولكن الرب معي كجبار قدير. من اجل ذلك يعثر مضطهديّ ولا يقدرون. خزوا جدا لانهم لم ينجحوا خزيا ابديا لا ينسى.

¹²But, Yahweh of Armies, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them; for to you have I revealed my cause.

¹²فيا رب الجنود مختبر الصدّيق ناظر الكلى والقلب دعني ارى نقمتك منهم لاني لك كشفت دعواي.

¹³Sing to Yahweh, praise Yahweh; for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.

¹³رنموا للرب سبحوا الرب لانه قد انقذ نفس المسكين من يد الاشرار

¹⁴Cursed is the day in which I was born: don’t let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.

¹⁴ملعون اليوم الذي ولدت فيه. اليوم الذي ولدتني فيه امي لا يكن مباركا.

¹⁵Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, A boy is born to you; making him very glad.

¹⁵ملعون الانسان الذي بشّر ابي قائلا قد ولد لك ابن مفرحا اياه فرحا.

¹⁶Let that man be as the cities which Yahweh overthrew, and didn’t repent: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;

¹⁶وليكن ذلك الانسان كالمدن التي قلبها الرب ولم يندم فيسمع صياحا في الصباح وجلبة في وقت الظهيرة.

¹⁷because he didn’t kill me from the womb; and so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.

¹⁷لانه لم يقتلني من الرحم فكانت لي امي قبري ورحمها حبلى الى الابد.

¹⁸Why came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?

¹⁸لماذا خرجت من الرحم لارى تعبا وحزنا فتفنى بالخزي ايامي
