< إشَعْياء 14 >

وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ يُنْعِمُ بِرَحْمَتِهِ عَلَى ذُرِّيَّةِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَيَصْطَفِي شَعْبَ إِسْرَائِيلَ ثَانِيَةً وَيُحِلُّهُمْ فِي أَرْضِهِمْ، فَيَنْضَمُّ الْغُرَبَاءُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَيَلْحَقُونَ بِبَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ. ١ 1
For Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob, And will yet choose Israel, And will give them rest upon their own soil, —And the sojourner, shall join himself, unto them, And they shall attach themselves unto the house of Jacob;
وَتَمُدُّ شُعُوبُ الأَرْضِ إِلَيْهِمْ يَدَ الْعَوْنِ لِيُسَاعِدُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى الْعَوْدَةِ لِدِيَارِهِ. وَيَصِيرُونَ عَبِيداً لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، فِي أَرْضِ الرَّبِّ، وَيَتَسَلَّطُونَ عَلَى آسِرِيهِمْ وَظَالِمِيهِمْ. ٢ 2
And peoples shall take them, and bring them into their own place, And the house of Israel shall possess themselves of them upon the soil of Yahweh for servants and for handmaids, —Thus shall they be taking captive their captors, And shall tread down their oppressors.
فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يُرِيحُكُمُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ عَنَائِكُمْ وَشَقَائِكُمْ وَعُبُودِيَّتِكُمُ الْقَاسِيَةِ، ٣ 3
And it shall come to pass, in the day when Yahweh shall give thee rest from thy toil, and from thy disquiet, —and from the hard service which had been laid upon thee,
فَتَسْخَرُونَ مِنْ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ قَائِلِينَ: كَيْفَ اسْتَكَانَ الظَّالِمُ، وَكَيْفَ خَمَدَتْ غَضْبَتُهُ الْمُتَعَجْرِفَةُ؟ ٤ 4
that thou shalt take up this taunt over the king of Babylon, and shalt say: —How hath ceased the oppressor! Ceased the exactress!
قَدْ حَطَّمَ الرَّبُّ عَصَا الْمُنَافِقِ وَصَوْلَجَانَ الْمُتَسَلِّطِينَ، ٥ 5
Broke hath Yahweh the staff of the lawless, —The sceptre of despots;
الَّذِينَ انْهَالُوا عَلَى النَّاسِ ضَرْباً بِسَخَطٍ لاَ يَتَوَقَّفُ؛ الَّذِينَ تَسَلَّطُوا عَلَى الأُمَمِ بِغَضَبٍ وَاضْطِهَادٍ شَدِيدٍ. ٦ 6
Smiting peoples in passion With stroke unremitting, —Trampling, in anger, on nations, Persecution unhindered.
فَاسْتَرَاحَتِ الأَرْضُ كُلُّهَا وَسَادَهَا الْهُدُوءُ، فَتَغَنَّتْ شُعُوبُهَا تَرَنُّماً. ٧ 7
Quiet, at rest, the whole earth, —Men have burst into shouting!
حَتَّى شَجَرُ السَّرْوِ وَأَرْزُ لُبْنَانَ عَمَّهَا الْفَرَحُ فَقَالَتْ: «مُنْذُ أَنِ انْكَسَرَتْ شَوْكَتُكَ لَمْ يَصْعَدْ إِلَيْنَا قَاطِعُ حَطَبٍ» ٨ 8
Yea the pine-trees, make mirth at thee, Cedars of Lebanon, Since thou wast laid low, No feller hath come up against us!
ثَارَتِ الْهَاوِيَةُ مِنْ أَسْفَلُ لاِسْتِقْبَالِكَ عِنْدَ قُدُومِكَ وَحَشَدَتِ الأَخْيِلَةَ، مِنْ كُلِّ الْعُظَمَاءِ، لِتَحِيَّتِكَ؛ أَنْهَضَتْ كُلَّ مُلُوكِ الأُمَمِ عَنْ عُرُوشِهِمْ (Sheol h7585) ٩ 9
Hades beneath, is excited about thee To meet thine arrival, —Rousing up, for thee Shades, All the he-goats of earth! Maketh rise from their thrones, All the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
كُلُّهُمْ يُخَاطِبُونَكَ قَائِلِينَ: لَقَدْ صِرْتَ ضَعِيفاً مِثْلَنَا، أَصْبَحْتَ مُمَاثِلاً لَنَا! ١٠ 10
All of them, answer, and say to thee, —Thou too, made strengthless, as we! Unto us, art thou like!
طُرِحَتْ كُلُّ عَظَمَتِكَ فِي الْهَاوِيَةِ مَعَ رَنَّةِ عِيدَانِكَ، وَأَصْبَحَتِ الرِّمَمُ فِرَاشَكَ وَالدُّودُ غِطَاءً لَكَ! (Sheol h7585) ١١ 11
Brought down to Hades, thy pride. The hum of thy harps, Beneath thee, is spread out corruption, And, thy coverlet—worms! (Sheol h7585)
كَيْفَ هَوَيْتِ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ يَازُهَرَةُ بِنْتَ الصُّبْحِ؟ كَيْفَ قُطِعْتَ وَطُرِحْتَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ يَاقَاهِرَ الأُمَمِ؟ ١٢ 12
How hast thou fallen from heaven, O Shining One—Son of the Dawn! Hewn down to the earth, O crusher of nations!
قَدْ قُلْتَ فِي قَلْبِكَ: إِنِّي أَرْتَقِي إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَأَرْفَعُ عَرْشِي فَوْقَ كَوَاكِبِ اللهِ، وَأَجْلِسُ عَلَى جَبَلِ الاجْتِمَاعِ فِي أَقْصَى الشَّمَالِ ١٣ 13
Yet, thou, didst say in thy heart—The heavens, will I ascend, Above the stars of GOD, will I lift up my throne, —That I may sit in the Mount of Assembly In the Recesses of the North:
أَرْتَقِي فَوْقَ أَعَالِي السَّحَابِ، وَأُصْبِحُ مِثْلَ الْعَلِيِّ. ١٤ 14
I will mount on the hills of the clouds, I will match the Most High!
وَلَكِنَّكَ طُرِحْتَ إِلَى الْهَاوِيَةِ، إِلَى أَعْمَاقِ الْجُبِّ. (Sheol h7585) ١٥ 15
Howbeit, to Hades, shalt thou be brought down, —To the Recesses of the Pit! (Sheol h7585)
وَالَّذِينَ يَرَوْنَكَ يُحَمْلِقُونَ فِيكَ وَيَتَأَمَّلُونَ مُتَسَائِلِينَ: أَهَذَا هُوَ الإِنْسَانُ الَّذِي زَعْزَعَ الأَرْضَ وَهَزَّ الْمَمَالِكَ؟ ١٦ 16
They who see thee, upon thee, will gaze, Upon thee, will thoughtfully muse, —Is this the man who startled the earth? Who terrified kingdoms?
الَّذِي حَوَّلَ الْمَسْكُونَةَ إِلَى مِثْلِ الْقَفْرِ، وَقَلَبَ مُدُنَهَا، وَلَمْ يُطْلِقْ أَسْرَاهُ لِيَرْجِعُوا إِلَى بُيُوتِهِمْ؟ ١٧ 17
Who made the world like a desert? And its cities, brake down? Its prisoners, he loosed not, Each one to his home?
لَقَدْ رَقَدَ كُلُّ مُلُوكِ الأُمَمِ بِكَرَامَةٍ، كُلٌّ فِي ضَرِيحِهِ، ١٨ 18
All the kings of the nations—they all, are lying in state Each one in his crypt;
أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَقَدْ طُرِحْتَ بَعِيداً عَنْ قَبْرِكَ كَغُصْنٍ مَكْسُورٍ تُغَطِّيكَ رِمَمُ قَتْلَى الْمَعَارِكِ الَّذِينَ انْحَدَرُوا إِلَى مَقَرِّ الْمَوْتَى، وَصِرْتَ كَجَنَّةٍ دَاسَتْهَا حَوَافِرُ الْخَيْلِ ١٩ 19
But, thou, art flung out from thy grave, Like a scion detested, Beshrouded with slain, the pierced of the sword, Like a carcase trod underfoot:
لاَ تَنْضَمُّ إِلَيْهِمْ فِي مَدْفَنٍ، لأَنَّكَ خَرَّبْتَ أَرْضَكَ، وَذَبَحْتَ شَعْبَكَ، فَذُرِّيَّةُ فَاعِلِي الإِثْمِ يَبِيدُ ذِكْرُهَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ. ٢٠ 20
As for them who go down to the stones of the Pit, Thou shalt not be united with them in burial; For thy land, thou didst ruin Thy people, didst slay, —Unnamed to times age-abiding, Be the seed of the wicked!
أَعِدُّوا مَذْبَحَةً لأَبْنَائِهِ جَزَاءَ إِثْمِ آبَائِهِمْ، لِئَلاَّ يَقُومُوا وَيَرِثُوا الأَرْضَ فَيَمْلأُوا وَجْهَ الْبَسِيطَةِ مُدُناً. ٢١ 21
Prepare—for his sons—shambles. For the iniquity of their fathers, —They shall not rise nor possess the earth, Nor fill the face of the world with cities.
إِنِّي أَهُبُّ ضِدَّهُمْ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ، وَأَمْحُو مِنْ بَابِلَ اسْماً وَبَقِيَّةً وَنَسْلاً وَذُرِّيَّةً، ٢٢ 22
I will rise. Then. against them, Declareth Yahweh of hosts, —And will cut off from Babylon Record and remnant And scion and seed, Declareth Yahweh.
وَأَجْعَلُهَا مِيرَاثاً لِلْقَنَافِذِ، وَمُسْتَنْقَعَاتٍ لِلْمِيَاهِ، وَأَكْنِسُهَا بِمِكْنَسَةِ الدَّمَارِ». ٢٣ 23
And will make her a possession for the bittern, And marshes of water, —And will sweep it with the besom of destruction, Declareth Yahweh of hosts.
لَقَدْ أَقْسَمَ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ قَائِلاً: «حَقّاً مَا عَزَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ لاَبُدَّ أَنْ يَتَحَقَّقَ، وَمَا نَوَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ حَتْماً يَتِمُّ: ٢٤ 24
Yahweh of hosts, hath sworn, saying, —Surely as I intended, so, hath it come to pass, And as I purposed, the same, shall stand: —
أَنْ أُحَطِّمَ أَشُورَ فِي أَرْضِي وَأَطَأَهُ عَلَى جِبَالِي، فَيُلْقِيَ عَنْهُمْ نِيرَهُ، وَيَزُولَ عَنْ كَاهِلِهِمْ حِمْلُهُ. ٢٥ 25
That I will break in pieces the Assyrian in my land, Yea upon my mountains, will I tread him underfoot, —So shall be removed from off them his yoke, And his burden, from off their shoulder shall be removed.
هَذَا هُوَ الْقَضَاءُ الَّذِي حَكَمْتُ بِهِ عَلَى الأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا، وَهَذِهِ هِي الْيَدُ الَّتِي امْتَدَّتْ عَلَى كُلِّ الأُمَمِ. ٢٦ 26
This, is the purpose that is purposed upon all the earth, —And, this, the hand outstretched over all the nations;
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ قَدْ قَضَى، فَمَنْ يُبْطِلُ قَضَاءَهُ؟ وَيَدُهُ قَدِ امْتَدَّتْ فَمَنْ يَرُدُّهَا؟» ٢٧ 27
For, Yahweh of hosts, hath purposed, —And who shall frustrate? And, his, is the hand outstretched, And who shall turn it back?
وَفِي السَّنَةِ الَّتِي تُوُفِّيَ فِيهَا الْمَلِكُ آحَازُ أَوْحَى الرَّبُّ لإِشَعْيَاءَ: ٢٨ 28
In the year that King Ahaz died, came this oracle: —
«لاَ تَفْرَحِي يَاكُلَّ فِلِسْطِينَ، لأَنَّ الْقَضِيبَ الَّذِي ضَرَبَكِ قَدِ انْكَسَرَ. فَإِنَّ مِنْ أَصْلِ تِلْكَ الأَفْعَى يَخْرُجُ أُفْعُوَانٌ، وَذُرِّيَّتُهُ تَكُونُ ثُعْبَاناً سَامّاً طَيَّاراً ٢٩ 29
Do not rejoice, Philistia, any of thee, In that the rod of him that smote thee, is broken, —For, out of the root of the serpent, shall come forth, a viper, And his fruit be a fiery dragon that flieth.
أَمَّا أَبْكَارُ الْبَائِسِينَ فَيَرْعَوْنَ، وَالْمَسَاكِينُ يَرْبِضُونَ آمِنِينَ. لَكِنَّنِي أُهْلِكُ أَصْلَكِ بِالْمَجَاعَةِ وَأَقْضِي عَلَى بَقِيَّتِكِ. ٣٠ 30
Then shall feed the firstborn of the poor, And the needy, in confidence lie down, —And I will kill with famine thy root, And thy residue, shall be slain.
وَلْوِلْ أَيُّهَا البَابُ وَنُوحِي أَيَّتُهَا الْمَدِينَةُ! ذُوبِي خَوْفاً يَافِلِسْطِينُ قَاطِبَةً لأَنَّ جَيْشاً مُدَرَّباً قَدْ زَحَفَ نَحْوَكِ مِنَ الشِّمَالِ ٣١ 31
Howl—O gate, Make outcry—O city, Dispersed art thou Philistia, all of thee, —For out of the north, a smoke cometh in, With no straggler in his ranks.
فَبِمَاذَا نُجِيبُ رُسُلَ الأُمَّةِ؟ لِتَقُلْ لَهُمْ: قَدْ أَسَّسَ الرَّبُّ أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيَلُوذَ بِهَا مَنْكُوبُو شَعْبِهِ». ٣٢ 32
What, then, shall one answer the messengers of a nation? That Yahweh, hath founded Zion, And in her, shall seek refuge the oppressed of his people.
