< إِشَعْيَاءَ 7 >

وَحَدَثَ فِي أَيَّامِ آحَازَ بْنِ يُوثَامَ بْنِ عُزِّيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، أَنَّ رَصِينَ مَلِكَ أَرَامَ صَعِدَ مَعَ فَقَحَ بْنِ رَمَلْيَا مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِمُحَارَبَتِهَا، فَلَمْ يَقْدِرْ أَنْ يُحَارِبَهَا. ١ 1
In the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah [Praised], Rezin the king of Syria [Elevated], and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel [God prevails], went up to Jerusalem [City of peace] to war against it, but could not prevail against it.
وَأُخْبِرَ بَيْتُ دَاوُدَ وَقِيلَ لَهُ: «قَدْ حَلَّتْ أَرَامُ فِي أَفْرَايِمَ». فَرَجَفَ قَلْبُهُ وَقُلُوبُ شَعْبِهِ كَرَجَفَانِ شَجَرِ ٱلْوَعْرِ قُدَّامَ ٱلرِّيحِ. ٢ 2
David [Beloved]’s house was told, “Syria [Elevated] is allied with Ephraim [Fruit].” His heart trembled, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest tremble with the wind.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِإِشَعْيَاءَ: «ٱخْرُجْ لِمُلَاقَاةِ آحَازَ، أَنْتَ وَشَآرَ يَاشُوبَ ٱبْنُكَ، إِلَى طَرَفِ قَنَاةِ ٱلْبِرْكَةِ ٱلْعُلْيَا، إِلَى سِكَّةِ حَقْلِ ٱلْقَصَّارِ، ٣ 3
Then Adonai said to Isaiah [Salvation of Yah], “Go out now to meet Ahaz, you, and Shearjashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway of the fuller’s field.
وَقُلْ لَهُ: اِحْتَرِزْ وَٱهْدَأْ. لَا تَخَفْ وَلَا يَضْعُفْ قَلْبُكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَنَبَيْ هَاتَيْنِ ٱلشُّعْلَتَيْنِ ٱلْمُدَخِّنَتَيْنِ، بِحُمُوِّ غَضَبِ رَصِينَ وَأَرَامَ وَٱبْنِ رَمَلْيَا. ٤ 4
Tell him, ‘Be careful, and keep calm. Don’t be afraid, neither let your heart be faint because of these two tails of smoking torches, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria [Elevated], and of the son of Remaliah.
لِأَنَّ أَرَامَ تَآمَرَتْ عَلَيْكَ بِشَرٍّ مَعَ أَفْرَايِمَ وَٱبْنِ رَمَلْيَا قَائِلَةً: ٥ 5
Because Syria [Elevated], Ephraim [Fruit], and the son of Remaliah, have plotted evil against you, saying,
نَصْعَدُ عَلَى يَهُوذَا وَنُقَوِّضُهَا وَنَسْتَفْتِحُهَا لِأَنْفُسِنَا، وَنُمَلِّكُ فِي وَسَطِهَا مَلِكًا، ٱبْنَ طَبْئِيلَ. ٦ 6
“Let’s go up against Judah [Praised], and tear it apart, and let’s divide it among ourselves, and set up a king within it, even the son of Tabeel.”
هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا تَقُومُ! لَا تَكُونُ! ٧ 7
This is what the Lord Adonai says: “It shall not stand, neither shall it happen.”
لِأَنَّ رَأْسَ أَرَامَ دِمَشْقَ، وَرَأْسَ دِمَشْقَ رَصِينُ. وَفِي مُدَّةِ خَمْسٍ وَسِتِّينَ سَنَةً يَنْكَسِرُ أَفْرَايِمُ حَتَّى لَا يَكُونَ شَعْبًا. ٨ 8
For the head of Syria [Elevated] is Damascus [Bucket of blood], and the head of Damascus [Bucket of blood] is Rezin; and within sixty-five years Ephraim [Fruit] shall be broken in pieces, so that it shall not be a people;
وَرَأْسُ أَفْرَايِمَ ٱلسَّامِرَةُ، وَرَأْسُ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ ٱبْنُ رَمَلْيَا. إِنْ لَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا فَلَا تَأْمَنُوا». ٩ 9
and the head of Ephraim [Fruit] is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If you will not believe, surely you shall not be established.’”
ثُمَّ عَادَ ٱلرَّبُّ فَكَلَّمَ آحَازَ قَائِلًا: ١٠ 10
Adonai spoke again to Ahaz, saying,
«اُطْلُبْ لِنَفْسِكَ آيَةً مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. عَمِّقْ طَلَبَكَ أَوْ رَفِّعْهُ إِلَى فَوْقٍ». (Sheol h7585) ١١ 11
“Ask a sign of Adonai your God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.” (Sheol h7585)
فَقَالَ آحَازُ: «لَا أَطْلُبُ وَلَا أُجَرِّبُ ٱلرَّبَّ». ١٢ 12
But Ahaz said, “I will not ask, neither will I tempt Adonai.”
فَقَالَ: «ٱسْمَعُوا يَا بَيْتَ دَاوُدَ! هَلْ هُوَ قَلِيلٌ عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تُضْجِرُوا ٱلنَّاسَ حَتَّى تُضْجِرُوا إِلَهِي أَيْضًا؟ ١٣ 13
He said, “Sh'ma ·Hear obey· now, house of David [Beloved]. Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men, that you will try the patience of my God also?
وَلَكِنْ يُعْطِيكُمُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ نَفْسُهُ آيَةً: هَا ٱلْعَذْرَاءُ تَحْبَلُ وَتَلِدُ ٱبْنًا وَتَدْعُو ٱسْمَهُ «عِمَّانُوئِيلَ». ١٤ 14
Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin will conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name 'Immanu El [God is with us].
زُبْدًا وَعَسَلًا يَأْكُلُ مَتَى عَرَفَ أَنْ يَرْفُضَ ٱلشَّرَّ وَيَخْتَارَ ٱلْخَيْرَ. ١٥ 15
He shall eat butter and honey when he knows to refuse the evil, and choose the good.
لِأَنَّهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَعْرِفَ ٱلصَّبِيُّ أَنْ يَرْفُضَ ٱلشَّرَّ وَيَخْتَارَ ٱلْخَيْرَ، تُخْلَى ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ خَاشٍ مِنْ مَلِكَيْهَا». ١٦ 16
For before the child knows to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land whose two kings you abhor shall be forsaken.
يَجْلِبُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى شَعْبِكَ وَعَلَى بَيْتِ أَبِيكَ، أَيَّامًا لَمْ تَأْتِ مُنْذُ يَوْمِ ٱعْتِزَالِ أَفْرَايِمَ عَنْ يَهُوذَا، أَيْ مَلِكَ أَشُّورَ. ١٧ 17
Adonai will bring on you, on your people, and on your father’s house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim [Fruit] departed from Judah [Praised]; even the king of Assyria [Level plain].
وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَصْفِرُ لِلذُّبَابِ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَقْصَى تُرَعِ مِصْرَ، وَلِلنَّحْلِ ٱلَّذِي فِي أَرْضِ أَشُّورَ، ١٨ 18
It will happen in that day that Adonai will whistle for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria [Level plain].
فَتَأْتِي وَتَحِلُّ جَمِيعُهَا فِي ٱلْأَوْدِيَةِ ٱلْخَرِبَةِ وَفِي شُقُوقِ ٱلصُّخُورِ، وَفِي كُلِّ غَابِ ٱلشَّوْكِ، وَفِي كُلِّ ٱلْمَرَاعِي. ١٩ 19
They shall come, and shall all rest in the desolate valleys, in the clefts of the rocks, on all thorn hedges, and on all pastures.
فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ يَحْلِقُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ بِمُوسَى مُسْتَأْجَرَةٍ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلنَّهْرِ، بِمَلِكِ أَشُّورَ، ٱلرَّأْسَ وَشَعْرَ ٱلرِّجْلَيْنِ، وَتَنْزِعُ ٱللِّحْيَةَ أَيْضًا. ٢٠ 20
In that day the Lord will shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of Assyria [Level plain], the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.
وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ يُرَبِّي عِجْلَةَ بَقَرٍ وَشَاتَيْنِ، ٢١ 21
It shall happen in that day that a man shall keep alive a young cow, and two sheep;
وَيَكُونُ أَنَّهُ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ صُنْعِهَا ٱللَّبَنَ يَأْكُلُ زُبْدًا، فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ أُبْقِيَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ يَأْكُلُ زُبْدًا وَعَسَلًا. ٢٢ 22
and it shall happen, that because of the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat butter: for everyone will eat butter and honey that is left within the land.
وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَوْضِعٍ كَانَ فِيهِ أَلْفُ جَفْنَةٍ بِأَلْفٍ مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ، يَكُونُ لِلشَّوْكِ وَٱلْحَسَكِ. ٢٣ 23
It will happen in that day that every place where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silver shekels [25 lb; 11.34 kg], shall be for briers and thorns.
بِٱلسِّهَامِ وَٱلْقَوْسِ يُؤْتَى إِلَى هُنَاكَ، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ ٱلْأَرْضِ تَكُونُ شَوْكًا وَحَسَكًا. ٢٤ 24
People will go there with arrows and with bow, because all the land will be briers and thorns.
وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلَّتِي تُنْقَبُ بِٱلْمِعْوَلِ، لَا يُؤْتَى إِلَيْهَا خَوْفًا مِنَ ٱلشَّوْكِ وَٱلْحَسَكِ، فَتَكُونُ لِسَرْحِ ٱلْبَقَرِ وَلِدَوْسِ ٱلْغَنَمِ. ٢٥ 25
All the hills that were cultivated with the hoe, you shall not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending out of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.”
