< إِشَعْيَاءَ 37 >

فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ حَزَقِيَّا ذَلِكَ مَزَّقَ ثِيَابَهُ وَتَغَطَّى بِمِسْحٍ وَدَخَلَ بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١ 1
And it came to pass, when king Ezekias heard [it, that] he tore his clothes, and put on sackcloth, and went up to the house of the Lord.
وَأَرْسَلَ أَلِيَاقِيمَ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَشَبْنَةَ ٱلْكَاتِبَ وَشُيُوخَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ مُتَغَطِّينَ بِمُسُوحٍ إِلَى إِشَعْيَاءَ بْنِ آمُوصَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ. ٢ 2
And he sent Heliakim the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and the elders of the priests clothed with sackcloth, to Esaias the son of Amos, the prophet. And they said to him, Thus says Ezekias,
فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ حَزَقِيَّا: هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمُ يَوْمُ شِدَّةٍ وَتَأْدِيبٍ وَإِهَانَةٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَجِنَّةَ دَنَتْ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْلِدِ وَلَا قُوَّةَ عَلَى ٱلْوِلَادَةِ. ٣ 3
To-day is a day of affliction, and reproach, and rebuke, and anger: for the pangs are come upon the travailing [woman], but she has not strength to bring forth.
لَعَلَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ يَسْمَعُ كَلَامَ رَبْشَاقَى ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَهُ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ سَيِّدُهُ لِيُعَيِّرَ ٱلْإِلَهَ ٱلْحَيَّ، فَيُوَبِّخَ عَلَى ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. فَٱرْفَعْ صَلَاةً لِأَجْلِ ٱلْبَقِيَّةِ ٱلْمَوْجُودَةِ». ٤ 4
May the Lord your God hear the words of Rabsaces, which the king of the Assyrians has sent, to reproach the living God, even to reproach with the words which the Lord your God has heard: therefore you shall pray to your Lord for these that are left.
فَجَاءَ عَبِيدُ ٱلْمَلِكِ حَزَقِيَّا إِلَى إِشَعْيَاءَ. ٥ 5
So the servants of king Ezekias came to Esaias.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ إِشَعْيَاءُ: «هَكَذَا تَقُولُونَ لِسَيِّدِكُمْ: هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا تَخَفْ بِسَبَبِ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعْتَهُ، ٱلَّذِي جَدَّفَ عَلَيَّ بِهِ غِلْمَانُ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ. ٦ 6
And Esaias said to them, Thus shall you say to your master, Thus says the Lord, Be not you afraid at the words which you have heard, wherewith the ambassadors of the king of the Assyrians have reproached me,
هَأَنَذَا أَجْعَلُ فِيهِ رُوحًا فَيَسْمَعُ خَبَرًا وَيَرْجِعُ إِلَى أَرْضِهِ، وَأُسْقِطُهُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ فِي أَرْضِهِ». ٧ 7
Behold, I [will] send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a report, and return to his own country, and he shall fall by the sword in his own land.
فَرَجَعَ رَبْشَاقَى وَوَجَدَ مَلِكَ أَشُّورَ يُحَارِبُ لِبْنَةَ، لِأَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَّهُ ٱرْتَحَلَ عَنْ لَخِيشَ. ٨ 8
So Rabsaces returned, and found the king of the Assyrians besieging Lobna: for he had heard that he had departed from Lachis.
وَسَمِعَ عَنْ تِرْهَاقَةَ مَلِكِ كُوشَ قَوْلًا: «قَدْ خَرَجَ لِيُحَارِبَكَ». فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَرْسَلَ رُسُلًا إِلَى حَزَقِيَّا قَائِلًا: ٩ 9
And Tharaca king of the Ethiopians went forth to attack him. And when he heard it, he turned aside, and sent messengers to Ezekias, saying,
«هَكَذَا تُكَلِّمُونَ حَزَقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا قَائِلِينَ: لَا يَخْدَعْكَ إِلَهُكَ ٱلَّذِي أَنْتَ مُتَوَكِّلٌ عَلَيْهِ، قَائِلًا: لَا تُدْفَعُ أُورُشَلِيمُ إِلَى يَدِ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ. ١٠ 10
Thus shall you say to Ezekias king of Judea, Let not your God, in whom you trust, deceive you, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.
إِنَّكَ قَدْ سَمِعْتَ مَا فَعَلَ مُلُوكُ أَشُّورَ بِجَمِيعِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي لِتَحْرِيمِهَا. وَهَلْ تَنْجُو أَنْتَ؟ ١١ 11
Hast you not heard what the kings of the Assyrians have done, how they have destroyed the whole earth? and shall you be delivered?
هَلْ أَنْقَذَ آلِهَةُ ٱلْأُمَمِ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَهْلَكَهُمْ آبَائِي، جُوزَانَ وَحَارَانَ وَرَصَفَ وَبَنِي عَدَنَ، ٱلَّذِينَ فِي تَلَسَّارَ؟ ١٢ 12
Have the gods of the nations which my fathers destroyed delivered them, both Gozan, and Charrhan, and Rapheth, which are in the land of Theemath?
أَيْنَ مَلِكُ حَمَاةَ وَمَلِكُ أَرْفَادَ وَمَلِكُ مَدِينَةِ سَفَرْوَايِمَ وَهَيْنَعَ وَعِوَّا؟». ١٣ 13
Where are the kings of Emath? and where [is the king of] Arphath? and where [is the king] of the city of Eppharuaim, [and of] Anagugana?
فَأَخَذَ حَزَقِيَّا ٱلرَّسَائِلَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلرُّسُلِ وَقَرَأَهَا، ثُمَّ صَعِدَ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَنَشَرَهَا حَزَقِيَّا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، ١٤ 14
And Ezekias received the letter from the messengers, and read it, and went up to the house of the Lord, and opened it before the Lord.
وَصَلَّى حَزَقِيَّا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ١٥ 15
And Ezekias prayed to the Lord, saying,
«يَارَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْجَالِسَ فَوْقَ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ، أَنْتَ هُوَ ٱلْإِلَهُ وَحْدَكَ لِكُلِّ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. أَنْتَ صَنَعْتَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ. ١٦ 16
O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, who sit upon the cherubs, you alone are the God of every kingdom of the world: you have made heaven and earth.
أَمِلْ يَارَبُّ أُذُنَكَ وَٱسْمَعِ. ٱفْتَحْ يَارَبُّ عَيْنَيْكَ وَٱنْظُرْ، وَٱسْمَعْ كُلَّ كَلَامِ سَنْحَارِيبَ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَهُ لِيُعَيِّرَ ٱللهَ ٱلْحَيَّ. ١٧ 17
Incline your ear, O Lord, listen, O Lord; open your eyes, O Lord, look, O Lord: and behold the words of Sennacherim, which he has sent to reproach the living God.
حَقًّا يَارَبُّ إِنَّ مُلُوكَ أَشُّورَ قَدْ خَرَّبُوا كُلَّ ٱلْأُمَمِ وَأَرْضَهُمْ، ١٨ 18
For of a truth, Lord, the kings of the Assyrians have laid waste the whole world, and the countries thereof,
وَدَفَعُوا آلِهَتَهُمْ إِلَى ٱلنَّارِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَيْسُوا آلِهَةً بَلْ صَنْعَةُ أَيْدِي ٱلنَّاسِ، خَشَبٌ وَحَجَرٌ، فَأَبَادُوهُمْ. ١٩ 19
and have cast their idols into the fire: for, they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; and they have cast them away.
وَٱلْآنَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا خَلِّصْنَا مِنْ يَدِهِ، فَتَعْلَمَ مَمَالِكُ ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ ٱلرَّبُّ وَحْدَكَ». ٢٠ 20
But now, O Lord our God, deliver us from his hands, that every kingdom of the earth may know that you are God alone.
فَأَرْسَلَ إِشَعْيَاءُ بْنُ آمُوصَ إِلَى حَزَقِيَّا قَائِلًا: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي صَلَّيْتَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ جِهَةِ سَنْحَارِيبَ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ: ٢١ 21
And Esaias the son of Amos was sent to Ezekias, and said to him, Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, I have heard your prayer to me concerning Sennacherim king of the Assyrians.
هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِ: اِحْتَقَرَتْكَ. ٱسْتَهْزَأَتْ بِكَ ٱلْعَذْرَاءُ ٱبْنَةُ صِهْيَوْنَ. نَحْوَكَ أَنْغَضَتِ ٱبْنَةُ أُورُشَلِيمَ رَأْسَهَا. ٢٢ 22
This is the word which God has spoken concerning him; The virgin daughter of Sion has despised you, and mocked you; the daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at you.
مَنْ عَيَّرْتَ وَجَدَّفْتَ، وَعَلَى مَنْ عَلَّيْتَ صَوْتًا، وَقَدْ رَفَعْتَ إِلَى ٱلْعَلَاءِ عَيْنَيْكَ؟ عَلَى قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ! ٢٣ 23
Whom have you reproached and provoked? and against whom have you lifted up your voice? and have you not lifted up your eyes on high against the Holy One of Israel?
عَنْ يَدِ عَبِيدِكَ عَيَّرْتَ ٱلسَّيِّدَ، وَقُلْتَ: بِكَثْرَةِ مَرْكَبَاتِي قَدْ صَعِدْتُ إِلَى عُلُوِّ ٱلْجِبَالِ، عِقَابِ لُبْنَانَ، فَأَقْطَعُ أَرْزَهُ ٱلطَّوِيلَ وَأَفْضَلَ سَرْوِهِ، وَأَدْخُلُ أَقْصَى عُلُوِّهِ، وَعْرَ كَرْمَلِهِ. ٢٤ 24
For you have reproached the Lord by messengers; for you have said, With the multitude of chariots have I ascended to the height of mountains, and to the sides of Libanus; and I have cropped the height of his cedars and the beauty of his cypresses; and I entered into the height of the forest region:
أَنَا قَدْ حَفَرْتُ وَشَرِبْتُ مِيَاهًا، وَأُنَشِّفُ بِبَطْنِ قَدَمِي جَمِيعَ خُلْجَانِ مِصْرَ. ٢٥ 25
and I have made a bridge, and dried up the waters, and every pool of water.
أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ؟ مُنْذُ ٱلْبَعِيدِ صَنَعْتُهُ. مُنْذُ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْقَدِيمَةِ صَوَّرْتُهُ. ٱلْآنَ أَتَيْتُ بِهِ. فَتَكُونُ لِتَخْرِيبِ مُدُنٍ مُحَصَّنَةٍ حَتَّى تَصِيرَ رَوَابِيَ خَرِبَةً. ٢٦ 26
Hast you not heard of these things which I did of old? I appointed [them] from ancient times; but now have I manifested [my purpose] of desolating nations in [their] strong holds, and them that dwell in strong cities.
فَسُكَّانُهَا قِصَارُ ٱلْأَيْدِي قَدِ ٱرْتَاعُوا وَخَجِلُوا. صَارُوا كَعُشْبِ ٱلْحَقْلِ وَكَٱلنَّبَاتِ ٱلْأَخْضَرِ، كَحَشِيشِ ٱلسُّطُوحِ، وَكَٱلْمَلْفُوحِ قَبْلَ نُمُوِّهِ. ٢٧ 27
I weakened [their] hands, and they withered; and they became as dry grass on the housetops, and as grass.
وَلَكِنَّنِي عَالِمٌ بِجُلُوسِكَ وَخُرُوجِكَ وَدُخُولِكَ وَهَيَجَانِكَ عَلَيَّ. ٢٨ 28
But now I know your rest, and your going out, and your coming in.
لِأَنَّ هَيَجَانَكَ عَلَيَّ وَعَجْرَفَتَكَ قَدْ صَعِدَا إِلَى أُذُنَيَّ، أَضَعُ خِزَامَتِي فِي أَنْفِكَ وَشَكِيمَتِي فِي شَفَتَيْكَ، وَأَرُدُّكَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي جِئْتَ فِيهِ. ٢٩ 29
And your wrath wherewith you have been enraged, and your rancour has come up to me; therefore I will put a hook in your nose, and a bit in your lips, and will turn you back by the way by which you came.
«وَهَذِهِ لَكَ ٱلْعَلَامَةُ: تَأْكُلُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلسَّنَةَ زِرِّيعًا، وَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ خِلْفَةً، وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّنَةُ ٱلثَّالِثَةُ فَفِيهَا تَزْرَعُونَ وَتَحْصِدُونَ، وَتَغْرِسُونَ كُرُومًا وَتَأْكُلُونَ أَثْمَارَهَا. ٣٠ 30
And this shall be a sign to you, Eat this year what you have sown; and the second year that which is left: and the third year sow, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
وَيَعُودُ ٱلنَّاجُونَ مِنْ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا ٱلْبَاقُونَ يَتَأَصَّلُونَ إِلَى أَسْفَلَ، وَيَصْنَعُونَ ثَمَرًا إِلَى مَا فَوْقُ. ٣١ 31
And they that are left in Judea shall take root downward, and bear fruit upward:
لِأَنَّهُ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ تَخْرُجُ بَقِيَّةٌ، وَنَاجُونَ مِنْ جَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ. غَيْرَةُ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ تَصْنَعُ هَذَا. ٣٢ 32
for out of Jerusalem there shall be a remnant, and the saved ones out of mount Sion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts shall perform this.
«لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ: لَا يَدْخُلُ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ، وَلَا يَرْمِي هُنَاكَ سَهْمًا، وَلَا يَتَقَدَّمُ عَلَيْهَا بِتُرْسٍ، وَلَا يُقِيمُ عَلَيْهَا مِتْرَسَةً. ٣٣ 33
Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the king of the Assyrians, He shall not enter into this city, nor cast a weapon against it, nor bring a shield against it, nor make a rampart round it.
فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي جَاءَ فِيهِ يَرْجِعُ، وَإِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لَا يَدْخُلُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٣٤ 34
But by the way by which he came, by it shall he return, and shall not enter into this city: thus says the Lord.
وَأُحَامِي عَنْ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لِأُخَلِّصَهَا مِنْ أَجْلِ نَفْسِي، وَمِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي». ٣٥ 35
I will protect this city to save it for my own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
فَخَرَجَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَضَرَبَ مِنْ جَيْشِ أَشُّورَ مِئَةً وَخَمْسَةً وَثَمَانِينَ أَلْفًا. فَلَمَّا بَكَّرُوا صَبَاحًا إِذَا هُمْ جَمِيعًا جُثَثٌ مَيِّتَةٌ. ٣٦ 36
And the angel of the Lord went forth, and killed out of the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand: and they arose in the morning and found all [these] bodies dead.
فَٱنْصَرَفَ سَنْحَارِيبُ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ وَذَهَبَ رَاجِعًا وَأَقَامَ فِي نِينَوَى. ٣٧ 37
And Sennacherim king of the Assyrians turned and departed, and lived in Nineve.
وَفِيمَا هُوَ سَاجِدٌ فِي بَيْتِ نِسْرُوخَ إِلَهِهِ ضَرَبَهُ أَدْرَمَّلَكُ وَشَرْآصَرُ ٱبْنَاهُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَنَجَوَا إِلَى أَرْضِ أَرَارَاطَ. وَمَلَكَ أَسَرْحَدُّونَ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. ٣٨ 38
And while he was worshipping Nasarach his country's god in the house, Adramelech and Sarasar his sons struck him with swords; and they escaped into Armenia: and Asordan his son reigned in his stead.
