Isaiah 33
1 Woe to you who destroy, but you weren’t destroyed, and who betray, but nobody betrayed you! When you have finished destroying, you will be destroyed; and when you have finished betrayal, you will be betrayed.
| وَيْلٌ لَكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُخْرِبُ وَأَنْتَ لَمْ تُخْرَبْ، وَأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاهِبُ وَلَمْ يَنْهَبُوكَ. حِينَ تَنْتَهِي مِنَ ٱلتَّخْرِيبِ تُخْرَبُ، وَحِينَ تَفْرَغُ مِنَ ٱلنَّهْبِ يَنْهَبُونَكَ. | ١ |
2 Yahweh, be gracious to us. We have waited for you. Be our strength every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
| يَارَبُّ، تَرَاءَفْ عَلَيْنَا. إِيَّاكَ ٱنْتَظَرْنَا. كُنْ عَضُدَهُمْ فِي ٱلْغَدَوَاتِ. خَلَاصَنَا أَيْضًا فِي وَقْتِ ٱلشِّدَّةِ. | ٢ |
3 At the noise of the thunder, the peoples have fled. When you lift yourself up, the nations are scattered.
| مِنْ صَوْتِ ٱلضَّجِيجِ هَرَبَتِ ٱلشُّعُوبُ. مِنِ ٱرْتِفَاعِكَ تَبَدَّدَتِ ٱلْأُمَمُ. | ٣ |
4 Your plunder will be gathered as the caterpillar gathers. Men will leap on it as locusts leap.
| وَيُجْنَى سَلَبُكُمْ جَنَى ٱلْجَرَادِ. كَتَرَاكُضِ ٱلْجُنْدُبِ يُتَرَاكَضُ عَلَيْهِ. | ٤ |
5 Yahweh is exalted, for he dwells on high. He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
| تَعَالَى ٱلرَّبُّ لِأَنَّهُ سَاكِنٌ فِي ٱلْعَلَاءِ. مَلَأَ صِهْيَوْنَ حَقًّا وَعَدْلًا. | ٥ |
6 There will be stability in your times, abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge. The fear of Yahweh is your treasure.
| فَيَكُونُ أَمَانُ أَوْقَاتِكَ وَفْرَةَ خَلَاصٍ وَحِكْمَةٍ وَمَعْرِفَةٍ. مَخَافَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ هِيَ كَنْزُهُ. | ٦ |
7 Behold, their valiant ones cry outside; the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
| هُوَذَا أَبْطَالُهُمْ قَدْ صَرَخُوا خَارِجًا. رُسُلُ ٱلسَّلَامِ يَبْكُونَ بِمَرَارَةٍ. | ٧ |
8 The highways are desolate. The traveling man ceases. The covenant is broken. He has despised the cities. He doesn’t respect man.
| خَلَتِ ٱلسِّكَكُ. بَادَ عَابِرُ ٱلسَّبِيلِ. نَكَثَ ٱلْعَهْدَ. رَذَلَ ٱلْمُدُنَ. لَمْ يَعْتَدَّ بِإِنْسَانٍ. | ٨ |
9 The land mourns and languishes. Lebanon is confounded and withers away. Sharon is like a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare.
| نَاحَتْ، ذَبُلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ. خَجِلَ لُبْنَانُ وَتَلِفَ. صَارَ شَارُونُ كَٱلْبَادِيَةِ. نُثِرَ بَاشَانُ وَكَرْمَلُ. | ٩ |
10 “Now I will arise,” says Yahweh. “Now I will lift myself up. Now I will be exalted.
| «اَلْآنَ أَقُومُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٱلْآنَ أَصْعَدُ. ٱلْآنَ أَرْتَفِعُ. | ١٠ |
11 You will conceive chaff. You will give birth to stubble. Your breath is a fire that will devour you.
| تَحْبَلُونَ بِحَشِيشٍ، تَلِدُونَ قَشِيشًا. نَفَسُكُمْ نَارٌ تَأْكُلُكمْ. | ١١ |
12 The peoples will be like the burning of lime, like thorns that are cut down and burned in the fire.
| وَتَصِيرُ ٱلشُّعُوبُ وَقُودَ كِلْسٍ، أَشْوَاكًا مَقْطُوعَةً تُحْرَقُ بِٱلنَّارِ». | ١٢ |
13 Hear, you who are far off, what I have done; and, you who are near, acknowledge my might.”
| اِسْمَعُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْبَعِيدُونَ مَا صَنَعْتُ، وَٱعْرِفُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْقَرِيبُونَ بَطْشِي. | ١٣ |
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid. Trembling has seized the godless ones. Who among us can live with the devouring fire? Who among us can live with everlasting burning?
| ٱرْتَعَبَ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ ٱلْخُطَاةُ. أَخَذَتِ ٱلرِّعْدَةُ ٱلْمُنَافِقِينَ: «مَنْ مِنَّا يَسْكُنُ فِي نَارٍ آكِلَةٍ؟ مَنْ مِنَّا يَسْكُنُ فِي وَقَائِدَ أَبَدِيَّةٍ؟» | ١٤ |
15 He who walks righteously and speaks blamelessly, he who despises the gain of oppressions, who gestures with his hands, refusing to take a bribe, who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed, and shuts his eyes from looking at evil—
| ٱلسَّالِكُ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَٱلْمُتَكَلِّمُ بِٱلِٱسْتِقَامَةِ، ٱلرَّاذِلُ مَكْسَبَ ٱلْمَظَالِمِ، ٱلنَّافِضُ يَدَيْهِ مِنْ قَبْضِ ٱلرَّشْوَةِ، ٱلَّذِي يَسُدُّ أُذُنَيْهِ عَنْ سَمْعِ ٱلدِّمَاءِ، وَيُغَمِّضُ عَيْنَيْهِ عَنِ ٱلنَّظَرِ إِلَى ٱلشَّرِّ | ١٥ |
16 he will dwell on high. His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks. His bread will be supplied. His waters will be sure.
| هُوَ فِي ٱلْأَعَالِي يَسْكُنُ. حُصُونُ ٱلصُّخُورِ مَلْجَأُهُ. يُعْطَى خُبْزَهُ، وَمِيَاهُهُ مَأْمُونَةٌ. | ١٦ |
17 Your eyes will see the king in his beauty. They will see a distant land.
| اَلْمَلِكَ بِبَهَائِهِ تَنْظُرُ عَيْنَاكَ. تَرَيَانِ أَرْضًا بَعِيدَةً. | ١٧ |
18 Your heart will meditate on the terror. Where is he who counted? Where is he who weighed? Where is he who counted the towers?
| قَلْبُكَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلرُّعْبَ: «أَيْنَ ٱلْكَاتِبُ؟ أَيْنَ ٱلْجَابِي؟ أَيْنَ ٱلَّذِي عَدَّ ٱلْأَبْرَاجَ؟» | ١٨ |
19 You will no longer see the fierce people, a people of a deep speech that you can’t comprehend, with a strange language that you can’t understand.
| ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلشَّرِسَ لَا تَرَى. ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلْغَامِضَ ٱللُّغَةِ عَنِ ٱلْإِدْرَاكِ، ٱلْعَيِيَّ بِلِسَانٍ لَا يُفْهَمُ. | ١٩ |
20 Look at Zion, the city of our appointed festivals. Your eyes will see Jerusalem, a quiet habitation, a tent that won’t be removed. Its stakes will never be plucked up, nor will any of its cords be broken.
| اُنْظُرْ صِهْيَوْنَ مَدِينَةَ أَعْيَادِنَا. عَيْنَاكَ تَرَيَانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ مَسْكِنًا مُطْمَئِنًّا، خَيْمَةً لَا تَنْتَقِلُ، لَا تُقْلَعُ أَوْتَادُهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَشَيْءٌ مِنْ أَطْنَابِهَا لَا يَنْقَطِعُ. | ٢٠ |
21 But there Yahweh will be with us in majesty, a place of wide rivers and streams, in which no galley with oars will go, neither will any gallant ship pass by there.
| بَلْ هُنَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْعَزِيزُ لَنَا مَكَانُ أَنْهَارٍ وَتُرَعٍ وَاسِعَةِ ٱلشَّوَاطِئِ. لَا يَسِيرُ فِيهَا قَارِبٌ بِمِقْذَافٍ، وَسَفِينَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ لَا تَجْتَازُ فِيهَا. | ٢١ |
22 For Yahweh is our judge. Yahweh is our lawgiver. Yahweh is our king. He will save us.
| فَإِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَاضِينَا. ٱلرَّبُّ شَارِعُنَا. ٱلرَّبُّ مَلِكُنَا هُوَ يُخَلِّصُنَا. | ٢٢ |
23 Your rigging is untied. They couldn’t strengthen the foot of their mast. They couldn’t spread the sail. Then the prey of a great plunder was divided. The lame took the prey.
| ٱرْتَخَتْ حِبَالُكِ. لَا يُشَدِّدُونَ قَاعِدَةَ سَارِيَتِهِمْ. لَا يَنْشُرُونَ قِلْعًا. حِينَئِذٍ قُسِمَ سَلَبُ غَنِيمَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ. ٱلْعُرْجُ نَهَبُوا نَهْبًا. | ٢٣ |
24 The inhabitant won’t say, “I am sick.” The people who dwell therein will be forgiven their iniquity.
| وَلَا يَقُولُ سَاكِنٌ: «أَنَا مَرِضْتُ». ٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلسَّاكِنُ فِيهَا مَغْفُورُ ٱلْإِثْمِ. | ٢٤ |
