< إِشَعْيَاءَ 47 >

«اِنْزِلِي وَٱجْلِسِي عَلَى ٱلتُّرَابِ أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْعَذْرَاءُ ٱبْنَةُ بَابِلَ. ٱجْلِسِي عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ بِلَا كُرْسِيٍّ يَا ٱبْنَةَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، لِأَنَّكِ لَا تَعُودِينَ تُدْعَيْنَ نَاعِمَةً وَمُتَرَفِّهَةً. ١ 1
"Come down, and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans: for you shall no more be called tender and delicate.
خُذِي ٱلرَّحَى وَٱطْحَنِي دَقِيقًا. ٱكْشِفِي نِقَابَكِ. شَمِّرِي ٱلذَّيْلَ. ٱكْشِفِي ٱلسَّاقَ. ٱعْبُرِي ٱلْأَنْهَارَ. ٢ 2
Take the millstones, and grind meal; remove your veil, strip off the train, uncover the leg, pass through the rivers.
تَنْكَشِفُ عَوْرَتُكِ وَتُرَى مَعَارِيكِ. آخُذُ نَقْمَةً وَلَا أُصَالِحُ أَحَدًا». ٣ 3
Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yes, your shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and will spare no man,"
فَادِينَا رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ ٱسْمُهُ. قُدُّوسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٤ 4
says our Redeemer; Jehovah of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.
«ٱجْلِسِي صَامِتَةً وَٱدْخُلِي فِي ٱلظَّلَامِ يَا ٱبْنَةَ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ، لِأَنَّكِ لَا تَعُودِينَ تُدْعَيْنَ سَيِّدَةَ ٱلْمَمَالِكِ. ٥ 5
"Sit in silence, and go into darkness, daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called the mistress of kingdoms.
«غَضِبْتُ عَلَى شَعْبِي. دَنَّسْتُ مِيرَاثِي وَدَفَعْتُهُمْ إِلَى يَدِكِ. لَمْ تَصْنَعِي لَهُمْ رَحْمَةً. عَلَى ٱلشَّيْخِ ثَقَّلْتِ نِيرَكِ جِدًّا. ٦ 6
I was angry with my people, I profaned my inheritance, and gave them into your hand: you showed them no mercy; on the aged you have very heavily laid your yoke.
وَقُلْتِ: إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ أَكُونُ سَيِّدَةً! حَتَّى لَمْ تَضَعِي هَذِهِ فِي قَلْبِكِ. لَمْ تَذْكُرِي آخِرَتَهَا. ٧ 7
You said, 'I shall be a mistress forever;' so that you did not lay these things to your heart, nor did you remember the latter end of it.
فَٱلْآنَ ٱسْمَعِي هَذَا أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْمُتَنَعِّمَةُ ٱلْجَالِسَةُ بِٱلطُّمَأْنِينَةِ، ٱلْقَائِلَةُ فِي قَلْبِهَا: أَنَا وَلَيْسَ غَيْرِي. لَا أَقْعُدُ أَرْمَلَةً وَلَا أَعْرِفُ ٱلثَّكَلَ. ٨ 8
"Now therefore hear this, you who are given to pleasures, who sit securely, who say in your heart, 'I am, and there is no other besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:'
فَيَأْتِي عَلَيْكِ هَذَانِ ٱلِٱثْنَانِ بَغْتَةً فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ: ٱلثَّكَلُ وَٱلتَّرَمُّلُ. بِٱلتَّمَامِ قَدْ أَتَيَا عَلَيْكِ مَعَ كَثْرَةِ سُحُورِكِ، مَعَ وُفُورِ رُقَاكِ جِدًّا. ٩ 9
but these two things shall come to you in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood; in their full measure shall they come on you, in spite of your many sorceries and the potency of your spells.
وَأَنْتِ ٱطْمَأْنَنْتِ فِي شَرِّكِ. قُلْتِ: لَيْسَ مَنْ يَرَانِي. حِكْمَتُكِ وَمَعْرِفَتُكِ هُمَا أَفْتَنَاكِ، فَقُلْتِ فِي قَلْبِكِ: أَنَا وَلَيْسَ غَيْرِي. ١٠ 10
For you have trusted in your wickedness; you have said, No one sees me; your wisdom and your knowledge, it has perverted you, and you have said in your heart, 'I am, and there is no other besides me.'
فَيَأْتِي عَلَيْكِ شَرٌّ لَا تَعْرِفِينَ فَجْرَهُ، وَتَقَعُ عَلَيْكِ مُصِيبَةٌ لَا تَقْدِرِينَ أَنْ تَصُدِّيهَا، وَتَأْتِي عَلَيْكِ بَغْتَةً تَهْلُكَةٌ لَا تَعْرِفِينَ بِهَا. ١١ 11
Therefore disaster will come on you; you won't know when it dawns: and calamity will fall on you; you will not be able to put it away: and desolation shall come on you suddenly and unexpectedly.
«قِفِي فِي رُقَاكِ وَفِي كَثْرَةِ سُحُورِكِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا تَعِبْتِ مُنْذُ صِبَاكِ، رُبَّمَا يُمْكِنُكِ أَنْ تَنْفَعِي، رُبَّمَا تُرْعِبِينَ. ١٢ 12
"Stand now with your enchantments, and with the multitude of your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth; if so be you shall be able to profit, if so be you may prevail.
قَدْ ضَعُفْتِ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ مَشُورَاتِكِ. لِيَقِفْ قَاسِمُو ٱلسَّمَاءِ ٱلرَّاصِدُونَ ٱلنُّجُومَ، ٱلْمُعَرِّفُونَ عِنْدَ رُؤُوسِ ٱلشُّهُورِ، وَيُخَلِّصُوكِ مِمَّا يَأْتِي عَلَيْكِ. ١٣ 13
You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels; those who conjure the heavens, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save you from the things that shall come on you.
هَا إِنَّهُمْ قَدْ صَارُوا كَٱلْقَشِّ. أَحْرَقَتْهُمُ ٱلنَّارُ. لَا يُنَجُّونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ مِنْ يَدِ ٱللَّهِيبِ. لَيْسَ هُوَ جَمْرًا لِلِٱسْتِدْفَاءِ وَلَا نَارًا لِلْجُلُوسِ تُجَاهَهَا. ١٤ 14
Look, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: it shall not be a coal to warm at, nor a fire to sit before.
هَكَذَا صَارَ لَكِ ٱلَّذِينَ تَعِبْتِ فِيهِمْ. تُجَّارُكِ مُنْذُ صِبَاكِ قَدْ شَرَدُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُخَلِّصُكِ. ١٥ 15
Thus shall the things be to you in which you have labored: those who have trafficked with you from your youth shall wander everyone to his quarter; there shall be none to save you.
