< إِشَعْيَاءَ 9 >

وَلَكِنْ لَا يَكُونُ ظَلَامٌ لِلَّتِي عَلَيْهَا ضِيقٌ. كَمَا أَهَانَ ٱلزَّمَانُ ٱلْأَوَّلُ أَرْضَ زَبُولُونَ وَأَرْضَ نَفْتَالِي، يُكْرِمُ ٱلْأَخِيرُ طَرِيقَ ٱلْبَحْرِ، عَبْرَ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، جَلِيلَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. ١ 1
But there shall be no more gloom for her who was in anguish. In the former time, he brought into contempt the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali; but in the latter time he has made it glorious, by the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
اَلشَّعْبُ ٱلسَّالِكُ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ أَبْصَرَ نُورًا عَظِيمًا. ٱلْجَالِسُونَ فِي أَرْضِ ظِلَالِ ٱلْمَوْتِ أَشْرَقَ عَلَيْهِمْ نُورٌ. ٢ 2
The people sitting in darkness have seen a great light. Those living in the land and shadow of death, on them a light has shined.
أَكْثَرْتَ ٱلْأُمَّةَ. عَظَّمْتَ لَهَا ٱلْفَرَحَ. يَفْرَحُونَ أَمَامَكَ كَٱلْفَرَحِ فِي ٱلْحَصَادِ. كَٱلَّذِينَ يَبْتَهِجُونَ عِنْدَمَا يَقْتَسِمُونَ غَنِيمَةً. ٣ 3
You have multiplied the nation. You have increased his joy. They rejoice before you according to the joy in harvest, as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
لِأَنَّ نِيرَ ثِقْلِهِ، وَعَصَا كَتِفِهِ، وَقَضِيبَ مُسَخِّرِهِ كَسَّرْتَهُنَّ كَمَا فِي يَوْمِ مِدْيَانَ. ٤ 4
For the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, you have broken as in the day of Midian.
لِأَنَّ كُلَّ سِلَاحِ ٱلْمُتَسَلِّحِ فِي ٱلْوَغَى وَكُلَّ رِدَاءٍ مُدَحْرَجٍ فِي ٱلدِّمَاءِ، يَكُونُ لِلْحَرِيقِ، مَأْكَلًا لِلنَّارِ. ٥ 5
For all the armor of the armed man in the noisy battle, and the garments rolled in blood, will be for burning, fuel for the fire.
لِأَنَّهُ يُولَدُ لَنَا وَلَدٌ وَنُعْطَى ٱبْنًا، وَتَكُونُ ٱلرِّيَاسَةُ عَلَى كَتِفِهِ، وَيُدْعَى ٱسْمُهُ عَجِيبًا، مُشِيرًا، إِلَهًا قَدِيرًا، أَبًا أَبَدِيًّا، رَئِيسَ ٱلسَّلَامِ. ٦ 6
For to us a child is born. To us a son is given; and the government will be on his shoulders, and his name is called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
لِنُمُوِّ رِيَاسَتِهِ، وَلِلسَّلَامِ لَا نِهَايَةَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ دَاوُدَ وَعَلَى مَمْلَكَتِهِ، لِيُثَبِّتَهَا وَيَعْضُدَهَا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَٱلْبِرِّ، مِنَ ٱلْآنَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. غَيْرَةُ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ تَصْنَعُ هَذَا. ٧ 7
Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, on the throne of David, and on his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from that time on, even forever. The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this.
أَرْسَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ قَوْلًا فِي يَعْقُوبَ فَوَقَعَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٨ 8
Jehovah sent a word into Jacob, and it falls on Israel.
فَيَعْرِفُ ٱلشَّعْبُ كُلُّهُ، أَفْرَايِمُ وَسُكَّانُ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، ٱلْقَائِلُونَ بِكِبْرِيَاءَ وَبِعَظَمَةِ قَلْبٍ: ٩ 9
All the people will know, including Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria, who say in pride and in arrogance of heart,
«قَدْ هَبَطَ ٱللِّبْنُ فَنَبْنِي بِحِجَارَةٍ مَنْحُوتَةٍ. قُطِعَ ٱلْجُمَّيْزُ فَنَسْتَخْلِفُهُ بِأَرْزٍ». ١٠ 10
"The bricks have fallen, but we will build with cut stone. The sycamore fig trees have been cut down, but we will put cedars in their place."
فَيَرْفَعُ ٱلرَّبُّ أَخْصَامَ رَصِينَ عَلَيْهِ وَيُهَيِّجُ أَعْدَاءَهُ: ١١ 11
Therefore Jehovah will set up on high against him the adversaries of Rezin, and will stir up his enemies,
ٱلْأَرَامِيِّينَ مِنْ قُدَّامُ وَٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مِنْ وَرَاءُ، فَيَأْكُلُونَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِكُلِّ ٱلْفَمِ. مَعَ كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ، بَلْ يَدُهُ مَمْدُودَةٌ بَعْدُ! ١٢ 12
The Arameans in front, and the Philistines behind; and they will devour Israel with open mouth. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
وَٱلشَّعْبُ لَمْ يَرْجِعْ إِلَى ضَارِبِهِ وَلَمْ يَطْلُبْ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. ١٣ 13
Yet the people have not turned to him who struck them, neither have they sought Jehovah of hosts.
فَيَقْطَعُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلرَّأْسَ وَٱلذَّنَبَ، ٱلنَّخْلَ وَٱلْأَسَلَ، فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ. ١٤ 14
Therefore Jehovah will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm branch and reed, in one day.
اَلشَّيْخُ وَٱلْمُعْتَبَرُ هُوَ ٱلرَّأْسُ، وَٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي يُعَلِّمُ بِٱلْكَذِبِ هُوَ ٱلذَّنَبُ. ١٥ 15
The elder and the honorable man is the head, and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail.
وَصَارَ مُرْشِدُو هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ مُضِلِّينَ، وَمُرْشَدُوهُ مُبْتَلَعِينَ. ١٦ 16
For those who lead this people lead them astray; and those who are led by them are destroyed.
لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ لَا يَفْرَحُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ بِفِتْيَانِهِ، وَلَا يَرْحَمُ يَتَامَاهُ وَأَرَامِلَهُ، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ مُنَافِقٌ وَفَاعِلُ شَرٍّ. وَكُلُّ فَمٍ مُتَكَلِّمٌ بِٱلْحَمَاقَةِ. مَعَ كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ، بَلْ يَدُهُ مَمْدُودَةٌ بَعْدُ! ١٧ 17
Therefore Jehovah will not rejoice over their young men, neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows; for everyone is profane and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
لِأَنَّ ٱلْفُجُورَ يُحْرِقُ كَٱلنَّارِ، تَأْكُلُ ٱلشَّوْكَ وَٱلْحَسَكَ، وَتُشْعِلُ غَابَ ٱلْوَعْرِ فَتَلْتَفُّ عَمُودَ دُخَانٍ. ١٨ 18
For wickedness burns like a fire. It devours the briers and thorns; yes, it kindles in the thickets of the forest, and they roll upward in a column of smoke.
بِسَخَطِ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ تُحْرَقُ ٱلْأَرْضُ، وَيَكُونُ ٱلشَّعْبُ كَمَأْكَلٍ لِلنَّارِ. لَا يُشْفِقُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ عَلَى أَخِيهِ. ١٩ 19
Through the wrath of Jehovah of hosts, the land is burnt up; and the people are the fuel for the fire. No one spares his brother.
يَلْتَهِمُ عَلَى ٱلْيَمِينِ فَيَجُوعُ، وَيَأْكُلُ عَلَى ٱلشَّمَالِ فَلَا يَشْبَعُ. يَأْكُلُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ لَحْمَ ذِرَاعِهِ: ٢٠ 20
One will devour on the right hand, and be hungry; and he will eat on the left hand, and they will not be satisfied. Everyone will eat the flesh of his own arm:
مَنَسَّى أَفْرَايِمَ، وَأَفْرَايِمُ مَنَسَّى، وَهُمَا مَعًا عَلَى يَهُوذَا. مَعَ كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ، بَلْ يَدُهُ مَمْدُودَةٌ بَعْدُ! ٢١ 21
Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
