إِشَعْيَاءَ 10
| وَيْلٌ لِلَّذِينَ يَقْضُونَ أَقْضِيَةَ ٱلْبُطْلِ، وَلِلْكَتَبَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُسَجِّلُونَ جَوْرًا | ١ 1 |
Woe to those who enact unjust statutes and issue oppressive decrees,
| لِيَصُدُّوا ٱلضُّعَفَاءَ عَنِ ٱلْحُكْمِ، وَيَسْلُبُوا حَقَّ بَائِسِي شَعْبِي، لِتَكُونَ ٱلْأَرَامِلُ غَنِيمَتَهُمْ وَيَنْهَبُوا ٱلْأَيْتَامَ. | ٢ 2 |
to deprive the poor of fair treatment and withhold justice from the oppressed of My people, to make widows their prey and orphans their plunder.
| وَمَاذَا تَفْعَلُونَ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلْعِقَابِ، حِينَ تَأْتِي ٱلتَّهْلُكَةُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ؟ إِلَى مَنْ تَهْرُبُونَ لِلْمَعُونَةِ، وَأَيْنَ تَتْرُكُونَ مَجْدَكُمْ؟ | ٣ 3 |
What will you do on the day of reckoning when devastation comes from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth?
| إِمَّا يَجْثُونَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَسْرَى، وَإِمَّا يَسْقُطُونَ تَحْتَ ٱلْقَتْلَى. مَعَ كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ، بَلْ يَدُهُ مَمْدُودَةٌ بَعْدُ! | ٤ 4 |
Nothing will remain but to crouch among the captives or fall among the slain. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
| «وَيْلٌ لِأَشُّورَ قَضِيبِ غَضَبِي، وَٱلْعَصَا فِي يَدِهِمْ هِيَ سَخَطِي. | ٥ 5 |
Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger; the staff in their hands is My wrath.
| عَلَى أُمَّةٍ مُنَافِقَةٍ أُرْسِلُهُ، وَعَلَى شَعْبِ سَخَطِي أُوصِيهِ، لِيَغْتَنِمَ غَنِيمَةً وَيَنْهَبَ نَهْبًا، وَيَجْعَلَهُمْ مَدُوسِينَ كَطِينِ ٱلْأَزِقَّةِ. | ٦ 6 |
I will send him against a godless nation; I will dispatch him against a people destined for My rage, to take spoils and seize plunder, and to trample them down like clay in the streets.
| أَمَّا هُوَ فَلَا يَفْتَكِرُ هَكَذَا، وَلَا يَحْسِبُ قَلْبُهُ هَكَذَا. بَلْ فِي قَلْبِهِ أَنْ يُبِيدَ وَيَقْرِضَ أُمَمًا لَيْسَتْ بِقَلِيلَةٍ. | ٧ 7 |
But this is not his intention; this is not his plan. For it is in his heart to destroy and cut off many nations.
| فَإِنَّهُ يَقُولُ: أَلَيْسَتْ رُؤَسَائِي جَمِيعًا مُلُوكًا؟ | ٨ 8 |
“Are not all my commanders kings?” he says.
| أَلَيْسَتْ كَلْنُو مِثْلَ كَرْكَمِيشَ؟ أَلَيْسَتْ حَمَاةُ مِثْلَ أَرْفَادَ؟ أَلَيْسَتِ ٱلسَّامِرَةُ مِثْلَ دِمَشْقَ؟ | ٩ 9 |
“Is not Calno like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus?
| كَمَا أَصَابَتْ يَدِي مَمَالِكَ ٱلْأَوْثَانِ، وَأَصْنَامُهَا ٱلْمَنْحُوتَةُ هِيَ أَكْثَرُ مِنَ ٱلَّتِي لِأُورُشَلِيمَ وَلِلسَّامِرَةِ، | ١٠ 10 |
As my hand seized the idolatrous kingdoms whose images surpassed those of Jerusalem and Samaria,
| أَفَلَيْسَ كَمَا صَنَعْتُ بِٱلسَّامِرَةِ وَبِأَوْثَانِهَا أَصْنَعُ بِأُورُشَلِيمَ وَأَصْنَامِهَا؟». | ١١ 11 |
and as I have done to Samaria and its idols, will I not also do to Jerusalem and her idols?”
| فَيَكُونُ مَتَى أَكْمَلَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ كُلَّ عَمَلِهِ بِجَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ وَبِأُورُشَلِيمَ، أَنِّي أُعَاقِبُ ثَمَرَ عَظَمَةِ قَلْبِ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ وَفَخْرَ رِفْعَةِ عَيْنَيْهِ. | ١٢ 12 |
So when the Lord has completed all His work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, He will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the fruit of his arrogant heart and the proud look in his eyes.
| لِأَنَّهُ قَالَ: «بِقُدْرَةِ يَدِي صَنَعْتُ، وَبِحِكْمَتِي. لِأَنِّي فَهِيمٌ. وَنَقَلْتُ تُخُومَ شُعُوبٍ، وَنَهَبْتُ ذَخَائِرَهُمْ، وَحَطَطْتُ ٱلْمُلُوكَ كَبَطَلٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
For he says: ‘By the strength of my hand I have done this, and by my wisdom, for I am clever. I have removed the boundaries of nations and plundered their treasures; like a mighty one I subdued their rulers.
| فَأَصَابَتْ يَدِي ثَرْوَةَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ كَعُشٍّ، وَكَمَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْضٌ مَهْجُورٌ، جَمَعْتُ أَنَا كُلَّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مُرَفْرِفُ جَنَاحٍ وَلَا فَاتِحُ فَمٍ وَلَا مُصَفْصِفٌ». | ١٤ 14 |
My hand reached as into a nest to seize the wealth of the nations. Like one gathering abandoned eggs, I gathered all the earth. No wing fluttered, no beak opened or chirped.’”
| هَلْ تَفْتَخِرُ ٱلْفَأْسُ عَلَى ٱلْقَاطِعِ بِهَا، أَوْ يَتَكَبَّرُ ٱلْمِنْشَارُ عَلَى مُرَدِّدِهِ؟ كَأَنَّ ٱلْقَضِيبَ يُحَرِّكُ رَافِعَهُ! كَأَنَّ ٱلْعَصَا تَرْفَعُ مَنْ لَيْسَ هُوَ عُودًا! | ١٥ 15 |
Does an axe raise itself above the one who swings it? Does a saw boast over him who saws with it? It would be like a rod waving the one who lifts it, or a staff lifting him who is not wood!
| لِذَلِكَ يُرْسِلُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ، سَيِّدُ ٱلْجُنُودِ، عَلَى سِمَانِهِ هُزَالًا، وَيُوقِدُ تَحْتَ مَجْدِهِ وَقِيدًا كَوَقِيدِ ٱلنَّارِ. | ١٦ 16 |
Therefore the Lord GOD of Hosts will send a wasting disease among Assyria’s stout warriors, and under his pomp will be kindled a fire like a burning flame.
| وَيَصِيرُ نُورُ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَارًا وَقُدُّوسُهُ لَهِيبًا، فَيُحْرِقُ وَيَأْكُلُ حَسَكَهُ وَشَوْكَهُ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ، | ١٧ 17 |
And the Light of Israel will become a fire, and its Holy One a flame. In a single day it will burn and devour Assyria’s thorns and thistles.
| وَيُفْنِي مَجْدَ وَعْرِهِ وَبُسْتَانِهِ، ٱلنَّفْسَ وَٱلْجَسَدَ جَمِيعًا. فَيَكُونُ كَذَوَبَانِ ٱلْمَرِيضِ. | ١٨ 18 |
The splendor of its forests and orchards, both soul and body, it will completely destroy, as a sickness consumes a man.
| وَبَقِيَّةُ أَشْجَارِ وَعْرِهِ تَكُونُ قَلِيلَةً حَتَّى يَكْتُبَهَا صَبِيٌّ. | ١٩ 19 |
The remaining trees of its forests will be so few that a child could count them.
| وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّ بَقِيَّةَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَٱلنَّاجِينَ مِنْ بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ لَا يَعُودُونَ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ أَيْضًا عَلَى ضَارِبِهِمْ، بَلْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِٱلْحَقِّ. | ٢٠ 20 |
On that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no longer depend on him who struck them, but they will truly rely on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel.
| تَرْجِعُ ٱلْبَقِيَّةُ، بَقِيَّةُ يَعْقُوبَ، إِلَى ٱللهِ ٱلْقَدِيرِ. | ٢١ 21 |
A remnant will return —a remnant of Jacob— to the Mighty God.
| لِأَنَّهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ شَعْبُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ كَرَمْلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ تَرْجِعُ بَقِيَّةٌ مِنْهُ. قَدْ قُضِيَ بِفَنَاءٍ فَائِضٍ بِٱلْعَدْلِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Though your people, O Israel, be like the sand of the sea, only a remnant will return. Destruction has been decreed, overflowing with righteousness.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلسَّيِّدَ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ يَصْنَعُ فَنَاءً وَقَضَاءً فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
For the Lord GOD of Hosts will carry out the destruction decreed upon the whole land.
| وَلَكِنْ هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: «لَا تَخَفْ مِنْ أَشُّورَ يَا شَعْبِي ٱلسَّاكِنُ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ. يَضْرِبُكَ بِٱلْقَضِيبِ، وَيَرْفَعُ عَصَاهُ عَلَيْكَ عَلَى أُسْلُوبِ مِصْرَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: “O My people who dwell in Zion, do not fear Assyria, who strikes you with a rod and lifts his staff against you as the Egyptians did.
| لِأَنَّهُ بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ جِدًّا يَتِمُّ ٱلسَّخَطُ وَغَضَبِي فِي إِبَادَتِهِمْ». | ٢٥ 25 |
For in just a little while My fury against you will subside, and My anger will turn to their destruction.”
| وَيُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ سَوْطًا، كَضَرْبَةِ مِدْيَانَ عِنْدَ صَخْرَةِ غُرَابَ، وَعَصَاهُ عَلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَيَرْفَعُهَا عَلَى أُسْلُوبِ مِصْرَ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And the LORD of Hosts will brandish a whip against them, as when He struck Midian at the rock of Oreb. He will raise His staff over the sea, as He did in Egypt.
| وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّ حِمْلَهُ يَزُولُ عَنْ كَتِفِكَ، وَنِيرَهُ عَنْ عُنُقِكَ، وَيَتْلَفُ ٱلنِّيرُ بِسَبَبِ ٱلسَّمَانَةِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
On that day the burden will be lifted from your shoulders, and the yoke from your neck. The yoke will be broken because your neck will be too large.
| قَدْ جَاءَ إِلَى عَيَّاثَ. عَبَرَ بِمِجْرُونَ. وَضَعَ فِي مِخْمَاشَ أَمْتِعَتَهُ. | ٢٨ 28 |
Assyria has entered Aiath and passed through Migron, storing their supplies at Michmash.
| عَبَرُوا ٱلْمَعْبَرَ. بَاتُوا فِي جَبَعَ. ٱرْتَعَدَتِ ٱلرَّامَةُ. هَرَبَتْ جِبْعَةُ شَاوُلَ. | ٢٩ 29 |
They have crossed at the ford: “We will spend the night at Geba.” Ramah trembles; Gibeah of Saul flees.
| اِصْهِلِي بِصَوْتِكِ يَا بِنْتَ جَلِّيمَ. ٱسْمَعِي يَا لَيْشَةُ. مِسْكِينَةٌ هِيَ عَنَاثُوثُ. | ٣٠ 30 |
Cry aloud, O Daughter of Gallim! Listen, O Laishah! O wretched Anathoth!
| هَرَبَتْ مَدْمِينَةُ. ٱحْتَمَى سُكَّانُ جِيبِيمَ. | ٣١ 31 |
Madmenah flees; the people of Gebim take refuge.
| ٱلْيَوْمَ يَقِفُ فِي نُوبَ. يَهُزُّ يَدَهُ عَلَى جَبَلِ بِنْتِ صِهْيَوْنَ، أَكَمَةِ أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ٣٢ 32 |
Yet today they will halt at Nob, shaking a fist at the mount of Daughter Zion, at the hill of Jerusalem.
| هُوَذَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ يَقْضِبُ ٱلْأَغْصَانَ بِرُعْبٍ، وَٱلْمُرْتَفِعُو ٱلْقَامَةِ يُقْطَعُونَ، وَٱلْمُتَشَامِخُونَ يَنْخَفِضُونَ. | ٣٣ 33 |
Behold, the Lord GOD of Hosts will lop off the branches with terrifying power. The tall trees will be cut down, the lofty ones will be felled.
| وَيُقْطَعُ غَابُ ٱلْوَعْرِ بِٱلْحَدِيدِ، وَيَسْقُطُ لُبْنَانُ بِقَدِيرٍ. | ٣٤ 34 |
He will clear the forest thickets with an axe, and Lebanon will fall before the Mighty One.
