Jeremiah 32:44
Arabic 2016 (الكِتاب المُقَدَّس: التَّرْجَمَةُ العَرَبِيَّةُ المُبَسَّطَةُ)
سَيَشْتَرُونَ الحُقُولَ بِفِضَّةٍ، وَسَيَكْتُبُونَ صُكُوكًا يَخْتِمُونَهَا وَيُشهِدُونَ آخَرِينَ عَلَيْهَا فِي أرْضِ بَنْيَامِينَ وَالمَنَاطِقِ المُحِيطَةِ بِالقُدْسِ وَفِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا وَمُدُنِ المَنَاطِقِ الجَبَلِيَّةِ وَفِي مُدُنِ التِّلَالِ الغَربِيَّةِ وَفِي مُدُنِ النَّقَبِ. سَيَحْدُثُ ذَلِكَ لِأنِّي سَأُرجِعُ مَا أُخِذَ مِنْهُمْ.» يَقُولُ اللهُ.
