إِشَعْيَاءَ 51

١ 1 «اِسْمَعُوا لِي أَيُّهَا ٱلتَّابِعُونَ ٱلْبِرَّ ٱلطَّالِبُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ: ٱنْظُرُوا إِلَى ٱلصَّخْرِ ٱلَّذِي مِنْهُ قُطِعْتُمْ، وَإِلَى نُقْرَةِ ٱلْجُبِّ ٱلَّتِي مِنْهَا حُفِرْتُمُ.

Hearken to me, ye who follow after righteousness, ye who seek Jehovah. Look to the rock from where ye were hewn, and to the hold of the pit from where ye were dug.

٢ 2 ٱنْظُرُوا إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَبِيكُمْ، وَإِلَى سَارَةَ ٱلَّتِي وَلَدَتْكُمْ. لِأَنِّي دَعَوْتُهُ وَهُوَ وَاحِدٌ وَبَارَكْتُهُ وَأَكْثَرْتُهُ.

Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you. For when he was but one I called him, and I blessed him, and made him many.

٣ 3 فَإِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ عَزَّى صِهْيَوْنَ. عَزَّى كُلَّ خِرَبِهَا، وَيَجْعَلُ بَرِّيَّتَهَا كَعَدْنٍ، وَبَادِيَتَهَا كَجَنَّةِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٱلْفَرَحُ وَٱلِٱبْتِهَاجُ يُوجَدَانِ فِيهَا. ٱلْحَمْدُ وَصَوْتُ ٱلتَّرَنُّمِ.

For Jehovah has comforted Zion. He has comforted all her waste places, and has made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of Jehovah. Joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.

٤ 4 «اُنْصُتُوا إِلَيَّ يَا شَعْبِي، وَيَا أُمَّتِي ٱصْغِي إِلَيَّ: لِأَنَّ شَرِيعَةً مِنْ عِنْدِي تَخْرُجُ، وَحَقِّي أُثَبِّتُهُ نُورًا لِلشُّعُوبِ.

Attend to me, O my people, and give ear to me, O my nation. For a law shall go forth from me, and I will establish my justice for a light of the peoples.

٥ 5 قَرِيبٌ بِرِّي. قَدْ بَرَزَ خَلَاصِي، وَذِرَاعَايَ يَقْضِيَانِ لِلشُّعُوبِ. إِيَّايَ تَرْجُو ٱلْجَزَائِرُ وَتَنْتَظِرُ ذِرَاعِي.

My righteousness is near. My salvation has gone forth, and my arms shall judge the peoples. The isles shall wait for me, and on my arm they shall trust.

٦ 6 «اِرْفَعُوا إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ عُيُونَكُمْ، وَٱنْظُرُوا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ تَحْتَ. فَإِنَّ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ كَٱلدُّخَانِ تَضْمَحِلُّ، وَٱلْأَرْضَ كَٱلثَّوْبِ تَبْلَى، وَسُكَّانَهَا كَٱلْبَعُوضِ يَمُوتُونَ. أَمَّا خَلَاصِي فَإِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يَكُونُ وَبِرِّي لَا يُنْقَضُ.

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath. For the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall grow old like a garment, and those who dwell in it shall die in like manner. But my salvation shall be forever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.

٧ 7 اِسْمَعُوا لِي يَا عَارِفِي ٱلْبِرِّ، ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلَّذِي شَرِيعَتِي فِي قَلْبِهِ: لَا تَخَافُوا مِنْ تَعْيِيرِ ٱلنَّاسِ، وَمِنْ شَتَائِمِهِمْ لَا تَرْتَاعُوا،

Hearken to me, ye who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law. Fear ye not the reproach of men, nor be ye dismayed at their revilings.

٨ 8 لِأَنَّهُ كَٱلثَّوْبِ يَأْكُلُهُمُ ٱلْعُثُّ، وَكَالصُّوفِ يَأْكُلُهُمُ ٱلسُّوسُ. أَمَّا بِرِّي فَإِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ يَكُونُ، وَخَلَاصِي إِلَى دَوْرِ ٱلْأَدْوَارِ».

For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool. But my righteousness shall be forever, and my salvation to all generations.

٩ 9 اِسْتَيْقِظِي، ٱسْتَيْقِظِي! ٱلْبَسِي قُوَّةً يَا ذِرَاعَ ٱلرَّبِّ! ٱسْتَيْقِظِي كَمَا فِي أَيَّامِ ٱلْقِدَمِ، كَمَا فِي ٱلْأَدْوَارِ ٱلْقَدِيمَةِ. أَلَسْتِ أَنْتِ ٱلْقَاطِعَةَ رَهَبَ، ٱلطَّاعِنَةَ ٱلتِّنِّينَ؟

Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of Jehovah. Awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Is it not thou who cut Rahab in pieces, who pierced the monster?

١٠ 10 أَلَسْتِ أَنْتِ هِيَ ٱلْمُنَشِّفَةَ ٱلْبَحْرَ، مِيَاهَ ٱلْغَمْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ، ٱلْجَاعِلَةَ أَعْمَاقَ ٱلْبَحْرِ طَرِيقًا لِعُبُورِ ٱلْمَفْدِيِّينَ؟

Is it not thou who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep, who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?

١١ 11 وَمَفْدِيُّو ٱلرَّبِّ يَرْجِعُونَ وَيَأْتُونَ إِلَى صِهْيَوْنَ بِٱلتَّرَنُّمِ، وَعَلَى رُؤُوسِهِمْ فَرَحٌ أَبَدِيٌّ. ٱبْتِهَاجٌ وَفَرَحٌ يُدْرِكَانِهِمْ. يَهْرُبُ ٱلْحُزْنُ وَٱلتَّنَهُّدُ.

And the ransomed of Jehovah shall return, and come with singing to Zion, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads. They shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

١٢ 12 «أَنَا أَنَا هُوَ مُعَزِّيكُمْ. مَنْ أَنْتِ حَتَّى تَخَافِي مِنْ إِنْسَانٍ يَمُوتُ، وَمِنِ ٱبْنِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي يُجْعَلُ كَٱلْعُشْبِ؟

I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are thou, that thou are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who shall be made as grass,

١٣ 13 وَتَنْسَى ٱلرَّبَّ صَانِعَكَ، بَاسِطَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَمُؤَسِّسَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَتَفْزَعُ دَائِمًا كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مِنْ غَضَبِ ٱلْمُضَايِقِ عِنْدَمَا هَيَّأَ لِلْإِهْلَاكِ. وَأَيْنَ غَضَبُ ٱلْمُضَايِقِ؟

and have forgotten Jehovah thy maker, who stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth, and fear continually all the day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he makes ready to destroy? And where is the fury of the oppressor?

١٤ 14 سَرِيعًا يُطْلَقُ ٱلْمُنْحَنِي، وَلَا يَمُوتُ فِي ٱلْجُبِّ وَلَا يُعْدَمُ خُبْزُهُ.

The captive exile shall speedily be loosed, and he shall not die in the pit, nor shall his bread fail.

١٥ 15 وَأَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مُزْعِجُ ٱلْبَحْرِ فَتَعِجُّ لُجَجُهُ. رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ ٱسْمُهُ.

For I am Jehovah thy God, who stirs up the sea so that the waves of it roar. Jehovah of hosts is his name.

١٦ 16 وَقَدْ جَعَلْتُ أَقْوَالِي فِي فَمِكَ، وَبِظِلِّ يَدِي سَتَرْتُكَ لِغَرْسِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَتَأْسِيسِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلِتَقُولَ لِصِهْيَوْنَ: أَنْتِ شَعْبِي».

And I have put my words in thy mouth, and have covered thee in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say to Zion, Thou are my people.

١٧ 17 اِنْهَضِي، ٱنْهَضِي! قُومِي يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ ٱلَّتِي شَرِبْتِ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَأْسَ غَضَبِهِ، ثُفْلَ كَأْسِ ٱلتَّرَنُّحِ شَرِبْتِ. مَصَصْتِ.

Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, who have drunk at the hand of Jehovah the cup of his wrath. Thou have drunk the bowl of the cup of staggering, and drained it.

١٨ 18 لَيْسَ لَهَا مَنْ يَقُودُهَا مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْبَنِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ وَلَدَتْهُمْ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُمْسِكُ بِيَدِهَا مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلْبَنِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ رَبَّتْهُمْ.

There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she has brought forth, nor is there any who takes her by the hand among all the sons that she has brought up.

١٩ 19 اِثْنَانِ هُمَا مُلَاقِيَاكِ. مَنْ يَرْثِي لَكِ؟ ٱلْخَرَابُ وَالِٱنْسِحَاقُ وَٱلْجُوعُ وَٱلسَّيْفُ. بِمَنْ أُعَزِّيكِ؟

These two things have befallen thee (Who shall bemoan thee?): Desolation and destruction, and the famine and the sword. How shall I comfort thee?

٢٠ 20 بَنُوكِ قَدْ أَعْيَوْا. ٱضْطَجَعُوا فِي رَأْسِ كُلِّ زُقَاقٍ كَٱلْوَعْلِ فِي شَبَكَةٍ. ٱلْمَلآنُونَ مِنْ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ، مِنْ زَجْرَةِ إِلَهِكِ.

Thy sons have fainted. They lie at the head of all the streets, as an antelope in a net. They are full of the wrath of Jehovah, the rebuke of thy God.

٢١ 21 لِذَلِكَ ٱسْمَعِي هَذَا أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْبَائِسَةُ وَٱلسَّكْرَى وَلَيْسَ بِٱلْخَمْرِ.

Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine.

٢٢ 22 هَكَذَا قَالَ سَيِّدُكِ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَإِلَهُكِ ٱلَّذِي يُحَاكِمُ لِشَعْبِهِ: «هَأَنَذَا قَدْ أَخَذْتُ مِنْ يَدِكِ كَأْسَ ٱلتَّرَنُّحِ، ثُفْلَ كَأْسِ غَضَبِي. لَا تَعُودِينَ تَشْرَبِينَهَا فِي مَا بَعْدُ.

Thus says thy lord Jehovah, and thy God who pleads the cause of his people: Behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of staggering, even the bowl of the cup of my wrath. Thou shall no more drink it again.

٢٣ 23 وَأَضَعُهَا فِي يَدِ مُعَذِّبِيكِ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوا لِنَفْسِكِ: ٱنْحَنِي لِنَعْبُرَ. فَوَضَعْتِ كَٱلْأَرْضِ ظَهْرَكِ وَكَالزُّقَاقِ لِلْعَابِرِينَ».

And I will put it into the hand of those who afflict thee, who have said to thy soul, Bow down, that we may go over, and thou have laid thy back as the ground, and as the street, to those who go over.
