< إِشَعْيَاءَ 1 >
رُؤْيَا إِشَعْيَاءَ بْنِ آمُوصَ، ٱلَّتِي رَآهَا عَلَى يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ، فِي أَيَّامِ عُزِّيَّا وَيُوثَامَ وَآحَازَ وَحِزْقِيَّا مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا: | ١ 1 |
The vision of Isaiah, the son of Amoz, which he saw about Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
اِسْمَعِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ وَأَصْغِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْأَرْضُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَتَكَلَّمُ: «رَبَّيْتُ بَنِينَ وَنَشَّأْتُهُمْ، أَمَّا هُمْ فَعَصَوْا عَلَيَّ. | ٢ 2 |
Give ear, O heavens, and you, O earth, to the word which the Lord has said: I have taken care of my children till they became men, but their hearts have been turned away from me.
اَلثَّوْرُ يَعْرِفُ قَانِيَهُ وَٱلْحِمَارُ مِعْلَفَ صَاحِبِهِ، أَمَّا إِسْرَائِيلُ فَلَا يَعْرِفُ. شَعْبِي لَا يَفْهَمُ». | ٣ 3 |
Even the ox has knowledge of its owner, and the ass of the place where its master puts its food: but Israel has no knowledge, my people give no thought to me.
وَيْلٌ لِلْأُمَّةِ ٱلْخَاطِئَةِ، ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلثَّقِيلِ ٱلْإِثْمِ، نَسْلِ فَاعِلِي ٱلشَّرِّ، أَوْلَادِ مُفْسِدِينَ! تَرَكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ، ٱسْتَهَانُوا بِقُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱرْتَدُّوا إِلَى وَرَاءٍ. | ٤ 4 |
O nation full of sin, a people weighted down with crime, a generation of evil-doers, false-hearted children: they have gone away from the Lord, they have no respect for the Holy One of Israel, their hearts are turned back from him.
عَلَى مَ تُضْرَبُونَ بَعْدُ؟ تَزْدَادُونَ زَيَغَانًا! كُلُّ ٱلرَّأْسِ مَرِيضٌ، وَكُلُّ ٱلْقَلْبِ سَقِيمٌ. | ٥ 5 |
Why will you have more and more punishment? why keep on in your evil ways? Every head is tired and every heart is feeble.
مِنْ أَسْفَلِ ٱلْقَدَمِ إِلَى ٱلرَّأْسِ لَيْسَ فِيهِ صِحَّةٌ، بَلْ جُرْحٌ وَأَحْبَاطٌ وَضَرْبَةٌ طَرِيَّةٌ لَمْ تُعْصَرْ وَلَمْ تُعْصَبْ وَلَمْ تُلَيَّنْ بِٱلزَّيْتِ. | ٦ 6 |
The body, from head to foot, is all diseased; it is a mass of open wounds, marks of blows, and broken flesh: the flow of blood has not been stopped, and no oil has been put on the wounds.
بِلَادُكُمْ خَرِبَةٌ. مُدُنُكُمْ مُحْرَقَةٌ بِٱلنَّارِ. أَرْضُكُمْ تَأْكُلُهَا غُرَبَاءُ قُدَّامَكُمْ، وَهِيَ خَرِبَةٌ كَٱنْقِلَابِ ٱلْغُرَبَاءِ. | ٧ 7 |
Your country has become waste; your towns are burned with fire; as for your land, it is overturned before your eyes, made waste and overcome by men from strange lands.
فَبَقِيَتِ ٱبْنَةُ صِهْيَوْنَ كَمِظَلَّةٍ فِي كَرْمٍ، كَخَيْمَةٍ فِي مَقْثَأَةٍ، كَمَدِينَةٍ مُحَاصَرَةٍ. | ٨ 8 |
And the daughter of Zion has become like a tent in a vine-garden, like a watchman's house in a field of fruit, like a town shut in by armies.
لَوْلَا أَنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ أَبْقَى لَنَا بَقِيَّةً صَغِيرَةً، لَصِرْنَا مِثْلَ سَدُومَ وَشَابَهْنَا عَمُورَةَ. | ٩ 9 |
If the Lord of armies had not kept some at least of us safe, we would have been like Sodom, and the fate of Gomorrah would have been ours.
اِسْمَعُوا كَلَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَا قُضَاةَ سَدُومَ! أَصْغُوا إِلَى شَرِيعَةِ إِلَهِنَا يَا شَعْبَ عَمُورَةَ: | ١٠ 10 |
Give ear to the word of the Lord, you rulers of Sodom; let your hearts be turned to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah.
«لِمَاذَا لِي كَثْرَةُ ذَبَائِحِكُمْ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٱتَّخَمْتُ مِنْ مُحْرَقَاتِ كِبَاشٍ وَشَحْمِ مُسَمَّنَاتٍ، وَبِدَمِ عُجُولٍ وَخِرْفَانٍ وَتُيُوسٍ مَا أُسَرُّ. | ١١ 11 |
What use to me is the number of the offerings which you give me? says the Lord; your burned offerings of sheep, and the best parts of fat cattle, are a weariness to me; I take no pleasure in the blood of oxen, or of lambs, or of he-goats.
حِينَمَا تَأْتُونَ لِتَظْهَرُوا أَمَامِي، مَنْ طَلَبَ هَذَا مِنْ أَيْدِيكُمْ أَنْ تَدُوسُوا دُورِي؟ | ١٢ 12 |
At whose request do you come before me, making my house unclean with your feet?
لَا تَعُودُوا تَأْتُونَ بِتَقْدِمَةٍ بَاطِلَةٍ. ٱلْبَخُورُ هُوَ مَكْرَهَةٌ لِي. رَأْسُ ٱلشَّهْرِ وَٱلسَّبْتُ وَنِدَاءُ ٱلْمَحْفَلِ. لَسْتُ أُطِيقُ ٱلْإِثْمَ وَٱلِٱعْتِكَافَ. | ١٣ 13 |
Give me no more false offerings; the smoke of burning flesh is disgusting to me, so are your new moons and Sabbaths and your holy meetings.
رُؤُوسُ شُهُورِكُمْ وَأَعْيَادُكُمْ بَغَضَتْهَا نَفْسِي. صَارَتْ عَلَيَّ ثِقْلًا. مَلِلْتُ حَمْلَهَا. | ١٤ 14 |
Your new moons and your regular feasts are a grief to my soul: they are a weight in my spirit; I am crushed under them.
فَحِينَ تَبْسُطُونَ أَيْدِيَكُمْ أَسْتُرُ عَيْنَيَّ عَنْكُمْ، وَإِنْ كَثَّرْتُمُ ٱلصَّلَاةَ لَا أَسْمَعُ. أَيْدِيكُمْ مَلْآنَةٌ دَمًا. | ١٥ 15 |
And when your hands are stretched out to me, my eyes will be turned away from you: even though you go on making prayers, I will not give ear: your hands are full of blood.
اِغْتَسِلُوا. تَنَقَّوْا. ٱعْزِلُوا شَرَّ أَفْعَالِكُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِ عَيْنَيَّ. كُفُّوا عَنْ فِعْلِ ٱلشَّرِّ. | ١٦ 16 |
Be washed, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; let there be an end of sinning;
تَعَلَّمُوا فَعْلَ ٱلْخَيْرِ. ٱطْلُبُوا ٱلْحَقَّ. ٱنْصِفُوا ٱلْمَظْلُومَ. ٱقْضُوا لِلْيَتِيمِ. حَامُوا عَنِ ٱلْأَرْمَلَةِ. | ١٧ 17 |
Take pleasure in well-doing; let your ways be upright, keep down the cruel, give a right decision for the child who has no father, see to the cause of the widow.
هَلُمَّ نَتَحَاجَجْ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. إِنْ كَانَتْ خَطَايَاكُمْ كَٱلْقِرْمِزِ تَبْيَضُّ كَٱلثَّلْجِ. إِنْ كَانَتْ حَمْرَاءَ كَٱلدُّودِيِّ تَصِيرُ كَٱلصُّوفِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Come now, and let us have an argument together, says the Lord: how may your sins which are red like blood be white as snow? how may their dark purple seem like wool?
إِنْ شِئْتُمْ وَسَمِعْتُمْ تَأْكُلُونَ خَيْرَ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٩ 19 |
If you will give ear to my word and do it, the good things of the land will be yours;
وَإِنْ أَبَيْتُمْ وَتَمَرَّدْتُمْ تُؤْكَلُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ». لِأَنَّ فَمَ ٱلرَّبِّ تَكَلَّمَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
But if your hearts are turned against me, I will send destruction on you by the sword; so the Lord has said.
كَيْفَ صَارَتِ ٱلْقَرْيَةُ ٱلْأَمِينَةُ زَانِيَةً! مَلآنَةً حَقًّا. كَانَ ٱلْعَدْلُ يَبِيتُ فِيهَا، وَأَمَّا ٱلْآنَ فَٱلْقَاتِلُونَ. | ٢١ 21 |
The upright town has become untrue; there was a time when her judges gave right decisions, when righteousness had a resting-place in her, but now she is full of those who take men's lives.
صَارَتْ فِضَّتُكِ زَغَلًا وَخَمْرُكِ مَغْشُوشَةً بِمَاءٍ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Your silver is no longer true metal, your wine is mixed with water.
رُؤَسَاؤُكِ مُتَمَرِّدُونَ وَلُغَفَاءُ ٱللُّصُوصِ. كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ يُحِبُّ ٱلرَّشْوَةَ وَيَتْبَعُ ٱلْعَطَايَا. لَا يَقْضُونَ لِلْيَتِيمِ، وَدَعْوَى ٱلْأَرْمَلَةِ لَا تَصِلُ إِلَيْهِمْ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Your chiefs have gone against the Lord, they have become friends of thieves; every one of them is looking for profit and going after rewards; they do not give right decisions for the child who has no father, and they do not let the cause of the widow come before them.
لِذَلِكَ يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ عَزِيزُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «آهِ! إِنِّي أَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْ خُصَمَائِي وَأَنْتَقِمُ مِنْ أَعْدَائِي، | ٢٤ 24 |
For this reason the Lord, the Lord of armies, the Strong One of Israel, has said, I will put an end to my haters, and send punishment on those who are against me;
وَأَرُدُّ يَدِي عَلَيْكِ، وَأُنَقِّي زَغَلَكِ كَأَنَّهُ بِٱلْبَوْرَقِ، وَأَنْزِعُ كُلَّ قَصْدِيرِكِ، | ٢٥ 25 |
And my hand will again be on you, washing away what is unclean as with soap, and taking away all your false metal;
وَأُعِيدُ قُضَاتَكِ كَمَا فِي ٱلْأَوَّلِ، وَمُشِيرِيكِ كَمَا فِي ٱلْبَدَاءَةِ. بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ تُدْعَيْنَ مَدِينَةَ ٱلْعَدْلِ، ٱلْقَرْيَةَ ٱلْأَمِينَةَ». | ٢٦ 26 |
And I will give you judges again as at the first, and wise guides as in the past; then you will be named, The Town of Righteousness, the true town.
صِهْيَوْنُ تُفْدَى بِٱلْحَقِّ، وَتَائِبُوهَا بِٱلْبِرِّ. | ٢٧ 27 |
Upright acts will be the price of Zion's forgiveness, and by righteousness will men be living there.
وَهَلَاكُ ٱلْمُذْنِبِينَ وَٱلْخُطَاةِ يَكُونُ سَوَاءً، وَتَارِكُو ٱلرَّبِّ يَفْنَوْنَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
But a common destruction will overtake sinners and evil-doers together, and those who have gone away from the Lord will be cut off.
لِأَنَّهُمْ يَخْجَلُونَ مِنْ أَشْجَارِ ٱلْبُطْمِ ٱلَّتِي ٱشْتَهَيْتُمُوهَا، وَتُخْزَوْنَ مِنَ ٱلْجَنَّاتِ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَرْتُمُوهَا. | ٢٩ 29 |
For you will be put to shame because of the trees of your desire, and because of the gardens of your pleasure.
لِأَنَّكُمْ تَصِيرُونَ كَبُطْمَةٍ قَدْ ذَبُلَ وَرَقُهَا، وَكَجَنَّةٍ لَيْسَ لَهَا مَاءٌ. | ٣٠ 30 |
For you will be like a tree whose leaves have become dry, and like a garden without water.
وَيَصِيرُ ٱلْقَوِيُّ مَشَاقَةً وَعَمَلُهُ شَرَارًا، فَيَحْتَرِقَانِ كِلَاهُمَا مَعًا وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُطْفِئُ. | ٣١ 31 |
And the strong will be as food for the fire, and his work as a flame; and they will be burned together, with no one to put out the fire.
