< إِشَعْيَاءَ 31 >

وَيْلٌ لِلَّذِينَ يَنْزِلُونَ إِلَى مِصْرَ لِلْمَعُونَةِ، وَيَسْتَنِدُونَ عَلَى ٱلْخَيْلِ وَيَتَوَكَّلُونَ عَلَى ٱلْمَرْكَبَاتِ لِأَنَّهَا كَثِيرَةٌ، وَعَلَى ٱلْفُرْسَانِ لِأَنَّهُمْ أَقْوِيَاءُ جِدًّا، وَلَا يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَلَا يَطْلُبُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ. ١ 1
Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, who trust in horses and chariots, for they are many; and in horses, [which are] a great multitude; and have not trusted in the Holy One of Israel, and have not sought the Lord.
وَهُوَ أَيْضًا حَكِيمٌ وَيَأْتِي بِٱلشَّرِّ وَلَا يَرْجِعُ بِكَلَامِهِ، وَيَقُومُ عَلَى بَيْتِ فَاعِلِي ٱلشَّرِّ وَعَلَى مَعُونَةِ فَاعِلِي ٱلْإِثْمِ. ٢ 2
Therefore he has wisely brought evils upon them, and his word shall not be frustrated; and he shall rise up against the houses of wicked men, and against their vain hope,
وَأَمَّا ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ فَهُمْ أُنَاسٌ لَا آلِهَةٌ، وَخَيْلُهُمْ جَسَدٌ لَا رُوحٌ. وَٱلرَّبُّ يَمُدُّ يَدَهُ فَيَعْثُرُ ٱلْمُعِينُ، وَيَسْقُطُ ٱلْمُعَانُ وَيَفْنَيَانِ كِلَاهُمَا مَعًا. ٣ 3
[even] an Egyptian, a man, and not God; the flesh of horses, and there is no help [in them]: but the Lord shall bring his hand upon them, and the helpers shall fail, and all shall perish together.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ لِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «كَمَا يَهِرُّ فَوْقَ فَرِيسَتِهِ ٱلْأَسَدُ وَٱلشِّبْلُ ٱلَّذِي يُدْعَى عَلَيْهِ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنَ ٱلرُّعَاةِ وَهُوَ لَا يَرْتَاعُ مِنْ صَوْتِهِمْ وَلَا يَتَذَلَّلُ لِجُمْهُورِهِمْ، هَكَذَا يَنْزِلُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ لِلْمُحَارَبَةِ عَنْ جَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ وَعَنْ أَكَمَتِهَا. ٤ 4
For thus said the Lord to me, As a lion would roar, or a lion's whelp over prey which he has taken, and cry over it, until the mountains are filled with his voice, and [the animals] are awe-struck and tremble at the fierceness of his wrath: so the Lord of hosts shall descend to fight upon the mount Sion, [even] upon her mountains.
كَطُيُورٍ مُرِفَّةٍ هَكَذَا يُحَامِي رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ. يُحَامِي فَيُنْقِذُ. يَعْفُو فَيُنَجِّي». ٥ 5
As birds flying, so shall the Lord of hosts defend; he shall defend Jerusalem, and he shall rescue, and save and deliver.
اِرْجِعُوا إِلَى ٱلَّذِي ٱرْتَدَّ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْهُ مُتَعَمِّقِينَ. ٦ 6
Turn, ye children of Israel, who devise a deep and sinful counsel.
لِأَنْ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ يَرْفُضُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَوْثَانَ فِضَّتِهِ وَأَوْثَانَ ذَهَبِهِ ٱلَّتِي صَنَعَتْهَا لَكُمْ أَيْدِيكُمْ خَطِيئَةً. ٧ 7
For in that day men shall renounce their silver idols and [their] golden idols, which their hands made.
وَيَسْقُطُ أَشُّورُ بِسَيْفِ غَيْرِ رَجُلٍ، وَسَيْفُ غَيْرِ إِنْسَانٍ يَأْكُلُهُ، فَيَهْرُبُ مِنْ أَمَامِ ٱلسَّيْفِ، وَيَكُونُ مُخْتَارُوهُ تَحْتَ ٱلْجِزْيَةِ. ٨ 8
And the Assyrian shall fall: not the sword of a great man, nor the sword of a mean man shall devour him; neither shall he flee from the face of the sword: but the young men shall be overthrown:
وَصَخْرُهُ مِنَ ٱلْخَوْفِ يَزُولُ، وَمِنَ ٱلرَّايَةِ يَرْتَعِبُ رُؤَسَاؤُهُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي لَهُ نَارٌ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ، وَلَهُ تَنُّورٌ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ. ٩ 9
for they shall be compassed with rocks as with a trench, and shall be worsted; and he that flees shall be taken. Thus saith the Lord, Blesses is he that has a seed in Sion, and household friends in Jerusalem.
