< إِشَعْيَاءَ 10 >

وَيْلٌ لِلَّذِينَ يَقْضُونَ أَقْضِيَةَ ٱلْبُطْلِ، وَلِلْكَتَبَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُسَجِّلُونَ جَوْرًا ١ 1
Tragedy is coming to those who pass evil decrees and who write laws to harm people.
لِيَصُدُّوا ٱلضُّعَفَاءَ عَنِ ٱلْحُكْمِ، وَيَسْلُبُوا حَقَّ بَائِسِي شَعْبِي، لِتَكُونَ ٱلْأَرَامِلُ غَنِيمَتَهُمْ وَيَنْهَبُوا ٱلْأَيْتَامَ. ٢ 2
They pervert the legal rights of the needy, and rob justice from the poor of my people. They steal from widows and cheat orphans.
وَمَاذَا تَفْعَلُونَ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلْعِقَابِ، حِينَ تَأْتِي ٱلتَّهْلُكَةُ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ؟ إِلَى مَنْ تَهْرُبُونَ لِلْمَعُونَةِ، وَأَيْنَ تَتْرُكُونَ مَجْدَكُمْ؟ ٣ 3
What are you going to do on the day you're punished, when disaster falls on you from far away? Who are you going to run to so you can get help? Where are you going to leave all your wealth?
إِمَّا يَجْثُونَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَسْرَى، وَإِمَّا يَسْقُطُونَ تَحْتَ ٱلْقَتْلَى. مَعَ كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ، بَلْ يَدُهُ مَمْدُودَةٌ بَعْدُ! ٤ 4
All you'll be able to do is to bow down as prisoners, or lie among the dead! In all of this he is still angry and his hand is still raised.
«وَيْلٌ لِأَشُّورَ قَضِيبِ غَضَبِي، وَٱلْعَصَا فِي يَدِهِمْ هِيَ سَخَطِي. ٥ 5
Tragedy is coming to the Assyrians, even though the rod they use represents my anger and the stick they hold in their hands represents my fury!
عَلَى أُمَّةٍ مُنَافِقَةٍ أُرْسِلُهُ، وَعَلَى شَعْبِ سَخَطِي أُوصِيهِ، لِيَغْتَنِمَ غَنِيمَةً وَيَنْهَبَ نَهْبًا، وَيَجْعَلَهُمْ مَدُوسِينَ كَطِينِ ٱلْأَزِقَّةِ. ٦ 6
I am sending the Assyrians against a nation that has given up on its God, against a people that make me angry. I order the Assyrians to loot them, to take their possessions, and to trample them down like mud in the street.
أَمَّا هُوَ فَلَا يَفْتَكِرُ هَكَذَا، وَلَا يَحْسِبُ قَلْبُهُ هَكَذَا. بَلْ فِي قَلْبِهِ أَنْ يُبِيدَ وَيَقْرِضَ أُمَمًا لَيْسَتْ بِقَلِيلَةٍ. ٧ 7
But this isn't what is behind the thinking of the king of Assyria. This isn't the plan he has in mind. What he wants to do is to destroy and eliminate many nations.
فَإِنَّهُ يَقُولُ: أَلَيْسَتْ رُؤَسَائِي جَمِيعًا مُلُوكًا؟ ٨ 8
He says: “All my commanders are kings!
أَلَيْسَتْ كَلْنُو مِثْلَ كَرْكَمِيشَ؟ أَلَيْسَتْ حَمَاةُ مِثْلَ أَرْفَادَ؟ أَلَيْسَتِ ٱلسَّامِرَةُ مِثْلَ دِمَشْقَ؟ ٩ 9
We conquered Calno like we did Carchemish; Hamath like Arpad; Samaria like Damascus.
كَمَا أَصَابَتْ يَدِي مَمَالِكَ ٱلْأَوْثَانِ، وَأَصْنَامُهَا ٱلْمَنْحُوتَةُ هِيَ أَكْثَرُ مِنَ ٱلَّتِي لِأُورُشَلِيمَ وَلِلسَّامِرَةِ، ١٠ 10
I was the one who conquered these kingdoms along with the idols of their gods. These kingdoms had images of their gods that were better than those of Jerusalem and Samaria.
أَفَلَيْسَ كَمَا صَنَعْتُ بِٱلسَّامِرَةِ وَبِأَوْثَانِهَا أَصْنَعُ بِأُورُشَلِيمَ وَأَصْنَامِهَا؟». ١١ 11
Why shouldn't I do to Jerusalem and her idols just what I did to Samaria and her idols?”
فَيَكُونُ مَتَى أَكْمَلَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ كُلَّ عَمَلِهِ بِجَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ وَبِأُورُشَلِيمَ، أَنِّي أُعَاقِبُ ثَمَرَ عَظَمَةِ قَلْبِ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ وَفَخْرَ رِفْعَةِ عَيْنَيْهِ. ١٢ 12
Once the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will punish the king of Assyria for his terrible arrogance and for the conceited look in his eyes.
لِأَنَّهُ قَالَ: «بِقُدْرَةِ يَدِي صَنَعْتُ، وَبِحِكْمَتِي. لِأَنِّي فَهِيمٌ. وَنَقَلْتُ تُخُومَ شُعُوبٍ، وَنَهَبْتُ ذَخَائِرَهُمْ، وَحَطَطْتُ ٱلْمُلُوكَ كَبَطَلٍ. ١٣ 13
For the king of Assyria says: “I have done this in my own strength. It was through my wisdom, because I'm clever. I have wiped out the boundaries of nations and looted their treasures. Like a bull I knocked their rulers off their thrones.
فَأَصَابَتْ يَدِي ثَرْوَةَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ كَعُشٍّ، وَكَمَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْضٌ مَهْجُورٌ، جَمَعْتُ أَنَا كُلَّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مُرَفْرِفُ جَنَاحٍ وَلَا فَاتِحُ فَمٍ وَلَا مُصَفْصِفٌ». ١٤ 14
Like robbing a bird's nest, I took the wealth of the nations. Like collecting abandoned eggs, I collected the whole the earth. There wasn't a fluttering wing or an open beak, not even a chirp!”
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 ax say it's more important than the person swinging it? Does a saw boast that it's greater than the person sawing with it? It would be as if a rod waved the person holding it, or a walking stick lifted up a person—who certainly wasn't wood!
لِذَلِكَ يُرْسِلُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ، سَيِّدُ ٱلْجُنُودِ، عَلَى سِمَانِهِ هُزَالًا، وَيُوقِدُ تَحْتَ مَجْدِهِ وَقِيدًا كَوَقِيدِ ٱلنَّارِ. ١٦ 16
So the Lord, the Lord Almighty, will send a disease on the king of Assyria's strong warriors that will make them waste away; a flaming fire will be set under everything he's so proud of.
وَيَصِيرُ نُورُ إِسْرَائِيلَ نَارًا وَقُدُّوسُهُ لَهِيبًا، فَيُحْرِقُ وَيَأْكُلُ حَسَكَهُ وَشَوْكَهُ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ، ١٧ 17
Israel's light will become a fire, and his Holy One will become a flame. It will burn up his thorns and brambles in just one day.
وَيُفْنِي مَجْدَ وَعْرِهِ وَبُسْتَانِهِ، ٱلنَّفْسَ وَٱلْجَسَدَ جَمِيعًا. فَيَكُونُ كَذَوَبَانِ ٱلْمَرِيضِ. ١٨ 18
It will totally destroy its splendid forests and orchards. Assyria will waste away, staggering off like someone sick.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أَشْجَارِ وَعْرِهِ تَكُونُ قَلِيلَةً حَتَّى يَكْتُبَهَا صَبِيٌّ. ١٩ 19
The trees left in 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
At that time those who are left in Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no longer trust in those who turn on them, but they will truly trust in the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.
تَرْجِعُ ٱلْبَقِيَّةُ، بَقِيَّةُ يَعْقُوبَ، إِلَى ٱللهِ ٱلْقَدِيرِ. ٢١ 21
A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob will come back to the Mighty God.
لِأَنَّهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ شَعْبُكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ كَرَمْلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ تَرْجِعُ بَقِيَّةٌ مِنْهُ. قَدْ قُضِيَ بِفَنَاءٍ فَائِضٍ بِٱلْعَدْلِ. ٢٢ 22
Israel, even though your people are as numerous as sand on the seashore, only a remnant will return. The Lord has rightly decided to destroy his people.
لِأَنَّ ٱلسَّيِّدَ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ يَصْنَعُ فَنَاءً وَقَضَاءً فِي كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٢٣ 23
The Lord God Almighty has rightly decided to bring destruction throughout the whole country.
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
So this is what the Lord, the Lord Almighty, says, My people living in Zion, don't be afraid of the Assyrians who beat you with rods and hit you with clubs, just like the Egyptians did.
لِأَنَّهُ بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ جِدًّا يَتِمُّ ٱلسَّخَطُ وَغَضَبِي فِي إِبَادَتِهِمْ». ٢٥ 25
Very shortly I will stop being angry with you. Then I will turn my anger on them and I will destroy them.
وَيُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ سَوْطًا، كَضَرْبَةِ مِدْيَانَ عِنْدَ صَخْرَةِ غُرَابَ، وَعَصَاهُ عَلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَيَرْفَعُهَا عَلَى أُسْلُوبِ مِصْرَ. ٢٦ 26
The Lord Almighty will lash them with a whip, just as he did when he attacked the Midianites at the rock of Oreb. He will hold up his rod over the sea, just as he did in Egypt.
وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّ حِمْلَهُ يَزُولُ عَنْ كَتِفِكَ، وَنِيرَهُ عَنْ عُنُقِكَ، وَيَتْلَفُ ٱلنِّيرُ بِسَبَبِ ٱلسَّمَانَةِ. ٢٧ 27
At that time he will remove the burden from your shoulders and the yoke from your neck. The yoke will be broken because of the anointing with oil.
قَدْ جَاءَ إِلَى عَيَّاثَ. عَبَرَ بِمِجْرُونَ. وَضَعَ فِي مِخْمَاشَ أَمْتِعَتَهُ. ٢٨ 28
The Assyrians came to Aiath, passed through Migron, and stored their supplies at Michmash.
عَبَرُوا ٱلْمَعْبَرَ. بَاتُوا فِي جَبَعَ. ٱرْتَعَدَتِ ٱلرَّامَةُ. هَرَبَتْ جِبْعَةُ شَاوُلَ. ٢٩ 29
They cross the pass, saying, “We'll stay overnight at Geba.” The people of Ramah tremble in fear; the inhabitants of Gibeah of Saul run away.
اِصْهِلِي بِصَوْتِكِ يَا بِنْتَ جَلِّيمَ. ٱسْمَعِي يَا لَيْشَةُ. مِسْكِينَةٌ هِيَ عَنَاثُوثُ. ٣٠ 30
Shout out a warning, people of Gallim! Pay attention, those living in Laishah! You poor people of Anathoth!
هَرَبَتْ مَدْمِينَةُ. ٱحْتَمَى سُكَّانُ جِيبِيمَ. ٣١ 31
The people of Madmenah, are all running away. The inhabitants of Gebim are looking for somewhere safe.
ٱلْيَوْمَ يَقِفُ فِي نُوبَ. يَهُزُّ يَدَهُ عَلَى جَبَلِ بِنْتِ صِهْيَوْنَ، أَكَمَةِ أُورُشَلِيمَ. ٣٢ 32
Today the invaders stop at Nob, shaking their fists at the mountain of the Daughter of Zion, at the hill of Jerusalem.
هُوَذَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ يَقْضِبُ ٱلْأَغْصَانَ بِرُعْبٍ، وَٱلْمُرْتَفِعُو ٱلْقَامَةِ يُقْطَعُونَ، وَٱلْمُتَشَامِخُونَ يَنْخَفِضُونَ. ٣٣ 33
Look how the Lord Almighty is going to chop off the branches with great force. The tall trees will be cut down, the proud trees will be brought crashing down.
وَيُقْطَعُ غَابُ ٱلْوَعْرِ بِٱلْحَدِيدِ، وَيَسْقُطُ لُبْنَانُ بِقَدِيرٍ. ٣٤ 34
He will cut down the thick forest with an ax, and Lebanon will fall at the hand of the Mighty One.
