< إِشَعْيَاءَ 45 >

هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمَسِيحِهِ، لِكُورَشَ ٱلَّذِي أَمْسَكْتُ بِيَمِينِهِ لِأَدُوسَ أَمَامَهُ أُمَمًا، وَأَحْقَاءَ مُلُوكٍ أَحُلُّ، لِأَفْتَحَ أَمَامَهُ ٱلْمِصْرَاعَيْنِ، وَٱلْأَبْوَابُ لَا تُغْلَقُ: ١ 1
Cyrus is the one whom Yahweh has appointed [to be the emperor of Persia] and to whom he will give great power [IDM]; Yahweh will enable him to defeat other nations and to take away the power of their kings. He will cause gates of cities to be opened, and no one will ever be able to shut them.
«أَنَا أَسِيرُ قُدَّامَكَ وَٱلْهِضَابَ أُمَهِّدُ. أُكَسِّرُ مِصْرَاعَيِ ٱلنُّحَاسِ، وَمَغَالِيقَ ٱلْحَدِيدِ أَقْصِفُ. ٢ 2
This is what Yahweh says to him: “Cyrus, I will go ahead of you and level the mountains. I will smash down bronze gates and cut through iron bars.
وَأُعْطِيكَ ذَخَائِرَ ٱلظُّلْمَةِ وَكُنُوزَ ٱلْمَخَابِئِ، لِكَيْ تَعْرِفَ أَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلَّذِي يَدْعُوكَ بِٱسْمِكَ، إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣ 3
I will give you treasures [that people have hidden] in dark secret places [DOU]. I will do that in order that you will know that I am Yahweh, the God to whom the Israelis belong, the God who calls you by your name.
لِأَجْلِ عَبْدِي يَعْقُوبَ، وَإِسْرَائِيلَ مُخْتَارِي، دَعَوْتُكَ بِٱسْمِكَ. لَقَّبْتُكَ وَأَنْتَ لَسْتَ تَعْرِفُنِي. ٤ 4
I have summoned you, calling out your name, for the sake of [the people of] Israel [DOU] whom I have chosen, who serve me. Even though you do not know me, I will give you a title which has great honor.
أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ وَلَيْسَ آخَرُ. لَا إِلَهَ سِوَايَ. نَطَّقْتُكَ وَأَنْتَ لَمْ تَعْرِفْنِي. ٥ 5
I am Yahweh, and there is no other God [DOU]. Even though you do not know me, I will give you power
لِكَيْ يَعْلَمُوا مِنْ مَشْرِقِ ٱلشَّمْسِ وَمِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا أَنْ لَيْسَ غَيْرِي. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ وَلَيْسَ آخَرُ. ٦ 6
in order that everyone in the world, from the east to the west, will know that there is no other [God]. I am Yahweh, and there is no other [God].
مُصَوِّرُ ٱلنُّورِ وَخَالِقُ ٱلظُّلْمَةِ، صَانِعُ ٱلسَّلَامِ وَخَالِقُ ٱلشَّرِّ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ صَانِعُ كُلِّ هَذِهِ. ٧ 7
I created the light and the darkness. I cause there to be peace and I cause there to be disasters. I, Yahweh, do all those things.”
اُقْطُرِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ مِنْ فَوْقُ، وَلْيُنْزِلُ ٱلْجَوُّ بِرًّا. لِتَنْفَتِحِ ٱلْأَرْضُ فَيُثْمِرَ ٱلْخَلَاصُ، وَلْتُنْبِتْ بِرًّا مَعًا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ خَلَقْتُهُ. ٨ 8
[And Yahweh also says, “I want my] rescue [of my people] [MET] to fall from the sky like rain. Just like the earth opens wide to accept rain, I will rescue/save my people and cause them to be treated justly. I, Yahweh, am the one who will cause both of those things to happen.
«وَيْلٌ لِمَنْ يُخَاصِمُ جَابِلَهُ. خَزَفٌ بَيْنَ أَخْزَافِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. هَلْ يَقُولُ ٱلطِّينُ لِجَابِلِهِ: مَاذَا تَصْنَعُ؟ أَوْ يَقُولُ: عَمَلُكَ لَيْسَ لَهُ يَدَانِ؟ ٩ 9
Terrible things will happen to those who argue with me, the one who created them. [They are like] [MET] a clay pot and [I am like] the one who made it; so they certainly cannot [RHQ] criticize me. A lump of clay certainly cannot [RHQ] argue with the one who shapes it [to form a pot], saying, ‘Why are you making me like this?’ The pot cannot say ‘[You have no skill, because] what you made has no handles!’
وَيْلٌ لِلَّذِي يَقُولُ لِأَبِيهِ: مَاذَا تَلِدُ؟ وَلِلْمَرْأَةِ: مَاذَا تَلِدِينَ؟». ١٠ 10
And it would be terrible if an unborn baby would say to its father, ‘Why are you [RHQ] causing me to be born?’ or if it said to its mother, ‘The result of your labor pains will be useless?’”
هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ قُدُّوسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَجَابِلُهُ: «اِسْأَلُونِي عَنِ ٱلْآتِيَاتِ! مِنْ جِهَةِ بَنِيَّ وَمِنْ جِهَةِ عَمَلِ يَدِي أَوْصُونِي! ١١ 11
Yahweh, the Holy One of the Israeli people, the one who created Israel, says this to them: “(Why do you ask questions about [what I do for you], my children?/You should not ask questions about [what I do for you], my children.) [RHQ] (Why do you tell me about the work that I should do?/You should not tell me about the work that I should do.) [RHQ]
أَنَا صَنَعْتُ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَخَلَقْتُ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ عَلَيْهَا. يَدَايَ أَنَا نَشَرَتَا ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، وَكُلَّ جُنْدِهَا أَنَا أَمَرْتُ. ١٢ 12
I am the one who created the earth and created people to live on it. I stretched out the sky with my hands, and I put the stars in their places.
أَنَا قَدْ أَنْهَضْتُهُ بِٱلنَّصْرِ، وَكُلَّ طُرُقِهِ أُسَهِّلُ. هُوَ يَبْنِي مَدِينَتِي وَيُطْلِقُ سَبْيِي، لَا بِثَمَنٍ وَلَا بِهَدِيَّةٍ، قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ». ١٣ 13
And I will appoint Cyrus to do things that are right/just, and I will enable him to do all those things easily [MET]. His [workers] will rebuild my city, and he will free my people who have been (exiled/forced to leave their country). And he will do it without my rewarding/paying him! [Those things will surely happen because] I, the Commander of the armies of angels, have said it.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «تَعَبُ مِصْرَ وَتِجَارَةُ كُوشٍ وَٱلسَّبَئِيُّونَ ذَوُو ٱلْقَامَةِ إِلَيْكِ يَعْبُرُونَ وَلَكِ يَكُونُونَ. خَلْفَكِ يَمْشُونَ. بِٱلْقُيُودِ يَمُرُّونَ وَلَكِ يَسْجُدُونَ. إِلَيْكِ يَتَضَرَّعُونَ قَائِلِينَ: فِيكِ وَحْدَكِ ٱللهُ وَلَيْسَ آخَرُ. لَيْسَ إِلَهٌ». ١٤ 14
And this is [also] what [I], Yahweh, say [to you, my people]: ‘You will rule the people of Egypt and Ethiopia, and the tall people of Seba [in Arabia] will become your slaves. They will come to you bringing all the things that they sell, and it will all be yours. [As prisoners], they will have chains on their arms as they follow you. They will prostrate themselves in front of you and say, “God is with/helping you and he is the only God; there is no other God.” '”
حَقًّا أَنْتَ إِلَهٌ مُحْتَجِبٌ يَا إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمُخَلِّصَ. ١٥ 15
God, although we cannot see you, you are the one to whom [we] Israeli people belong, the one who saves us.
قَدْ خَزُوا وَخَجِلُوا كُلُّهُمْ. مَضَوْا بِٱلْخَجَلِ جَمِيعًا، ٱلصَّانِعُونَ ٱلتَّمَاثِيلَ. ١٦ 16
All those who make idols will be humiliated. They will all be disgraced together.
أَمَّا إِسْرَائِيلُ فَيَخْلُصُ بِٱلرَّبِّ خَلَاصًا أَبَدِيًّا. لَا تَخْزَوْنَ وَلَا تَخْجَلُونَ إِلَى دُهُورِ ٱلْأَبَدِ. ١٧ 17
But you, Yahweh, will rescue [us, your] Israeli people, and we will be free forever. Never again will we again be humiliated and disgraced.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «خَالِقُ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ هُوَ ٱللهُ. مُصَوِّرُ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَصَانِعُهَا. هُوَ قَرَّرَهَا. لَمْ يَخْلُقْهَا بَاطِلًا. لِلسَّكَنِ صَوَّرَهَا. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ وَلَيْسَ آخَرُ. ١٨ 18
Yahweh is God; he is the one who created the sky and created and formed the earth. He did not want it to remain with nothing living on it; he wanted people to live on it. [He says], “I am Yahweh; there is no other [God].
لَمْ أَتَكَلَّمْ بِٱلْخِفَاءِ فِي مَكَانٍ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ مُظْلِمٍ. لَمْ أَقُلْ لِنَسْلِ يَعْقُوبَ: بَاطِلًا ٱطْلُبُونِي. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُتَكَلِّمٌ بِٱلصِّدْقِ، مُخْبِرٌ بِٱلِٱسْتِقَامَةِ. ١٩ 19
[What I proclaimed], I did not speak secretly or [hide what I was saying by speaking] in a dark place. When I spoke to the descendants of Jacob, I did not tell them ‘It will be useless for you to (seek for/pray to) me!’ I, Yahweh, speak [only] what is true and what is right.
«اِجْتَمِعُوا وَهَلُمُّوا تَقَدَّمُوا مَعًا أَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاجُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. لَا يَعْلَمُ ٱلْحَامِلُونَ خَشَبَ صَنَمِهِمْ، وَٱلْمُصَلُّونَ إِلَى إِلَهٍ لَا يُخَلِّصُ. ٢٠ 20
You people who are still alive after experiencing great disasters, should come and gather together [and listen to this]: The people who carry around their wooden idols and pray to them are foolish, because those idols cannot rescue them!
أَخْبِرُوا. قَدِّمُوا. وَلْيَتَشَاوَرُوا مَعًا. مَنْ أَعْلَمَ بِهَذِهِ مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ، أَخْبَرَ بِهَا مُنْذُ زَمَانٍ؟ أَلَيْسَ أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ وَلَا إِلَهَ آخَرَ غَيْرِي؟ إِلَهٌ بَارٌّ وَمُخَلِّصٌ. لَيْسَ سِوَايَ. ٢١ 21
Talk among yourselves, and decide what you will say to prove that [your praying to idols is good]. [And when you do that, I will ask you], ‘Who predicted long ago [what has now happened]? Did any idol tell you [that those things would happen] [RHQ]?’ No, it was [RHQ] only I, Yahweh, who told you, because I am the only God; there is no other God. I am a God who acts righteously and saves people; there is no other one [who does these things].
اِلْتَفِتُوا إِلَيَّ وَٱخْلُصُوا يَا جَمِيعَ أَقَاصِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱللهُ وَلَيْسَ آخَرَ. ٢٢ 22
Everyone in the world should ask me to save them, because I am the only God who can do that; there is no other one.
بِذَاتِي أَقْسَمْتُ، خَرَجَ مِنْ فَمِي ٱلصِّدْقُ كَلِمَةٌ لَا تَرْجِعُ: إِنَّهُ لِي تَجْثُو كُلُّ رُكْبَةٍ، يَحْلِفُ كُلُّ لِسَانٍ. ٢٣ 23
I have solemnly declared, using my own name; I [SYN] have spoken what is true, and I will never change what I have said: [Some day], everyone [SYN] will bow in front of me, and they will all solemnly promise to be loyal to me.
قَالَ لِي: إِنَّمَا بِٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْبِرُّ وَٱلْقُوَّةُ. إِلَيْهِ يَأْتِي، وَيَخْزَى جَمِيعُ ٱلْمُغْتَاظِينَ عَلَيْهِ. ٢٤ 24
They will declare, ‘Yahweh is the one who enables us to live righteously and to be strong.’” And all those who have been angry at him will come to him, and they will be ashamed [for having been angry with him].
بِٱلرَّبِّ يَتَبَرَّرُ وَيَفْتَخِرُ كُلُّ نَسْلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ». ٢٥ 25
Yahweh is the only one who will enable [us] Israeli people in the future to defeat our enemies, [and then] we will boast about what he [has done for us].
