إِشَعْيَاءَ 14

١ 1 لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ سَيَرْحَمُ يَعْقُوبَ وَيَخْتَارُ أَيْضًا إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَيُرِيحُهُمْ فِي أَرْضِهِمْ، فَتَقْتَرِنُ بِهِمِ ٱلْغُرَبَاءُ وَيَنْضَمُّونَ إِلَى بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ.

Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob; he will again choose Israel and restore them into their own land. Foreigners will join with them and attach themselves to the house of Jacob.

٢ 2 وَيَأْخُذُهُمْ شُعُوبٌ وَيَأْتُونَ بِهِمْ إِلَى مَوْضِعِهِمْ، وَيَمْتَلِكُهُمْ بَيْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَبِيدًا وَإِمَاءً، وَيَسْبُونَ ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَوْهُمْ وَيَتَسَلَّطُونَ عَلَى ظَالِمِيهِمْ.

The nations will bring them to their own place. Then the house of Israel will take them in the land of Yahweh as male and female servants. They will take captive those who had captured them, and they will rule over their oppressors.

٣ 3 وَيَكُونُ فِي يَوْمٍ يُرِيحُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ تَعَبِكَ وَمِنِ ٱنْزِعَاجِكَ، وَمِنَ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ ٱلْقَاسِيَةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱسْتُعْبِدْتَ بِهَا،

On the day that Yahweh gives you rest from your suffering and anguish, and from the hard labor which you were required to perform,

٤ 4 أَنَّكَ تَنْطِقُ بِهَذَا ٱلْهَجْوِ عَلَى مَلِكِ بَابِلَ وَتَقُولُ: «كَيْفَ بَادَ ٱلظَّالِمُ، بَادَتِ ٱلْمُغَطْرِسَةُ؟

you will sing this taunt song against the king of Babylon, “How the oppressor has come to an end, the proud fury ended!

٥ 5 قَدْ كَسَّرَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَصَا ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، قَضِيبَ ٱلْمُتَسَلِّطِينَ.

Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of those rulers,

٦ 6 ٱلضَّارِبُ ٱلشُّعُوبَ بِسَخَطٍ، ضَرْبَةً بِلَا فُتُورٍ. ٱلْمُتَسَلِّطُ بِغَضَبٍ عَلَى ٱلْأُمَمِ، بِٱضْطِهَادٍ بِلَا إمْسَاكٍ.

that struck the peoples in wrath with unceasing blows, that ruled the nations in anger, with an attack that was unrestrained.

٧ 7 اِسْتَرَاحَتِ، ٱطْمَأَنَّتْ كُلُّ ٱلْأَرْضِ. هَتَفُوا تَرَنُّمًا.

The whole earth is at rest and is quiet; they begin celebrating with singing.

٨ 8 حَتَّى ٱلسَّرْوُ يَفْرَحُ عَلَيْكَ، وَأَرْزُ لُبْنَانَ قَائِلًا: مُنْذُ ٱضْطَجَعْتَ لَمْ يَصْعَدْ عَلَيْنَا قَاطِعٌ.

Even the cypress trees rejoice over you with the cedars of Lebanon; they say, 'Since you are laid low, no woodcutter comes up to cut us down.'

٩ 9 اَلْهَاوِيَةُ مِنْ أَسْفَلُ مُهْتَزَّةٌ لَكَ، لِٱسْتِقْبَالِ قُدُومِكَ، مُنْهِضَةٌ لَكَ ٱلْأَخْيِلَةَ، جَمِيعَ عُظَمَاءِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. أَقَامَتْ كُلَّ مُلُوكِ ٱلْأُمَمِ عَنْ كَرَاسِيِّهِمْ. (Sheol h7585)

Sheol below is eager to meet you when you go there. It arouses the dead for you, all the kings of the earth, making them rise up from their thrones, all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)

١٠ 10 كُلُّهُمْ يُجِيبُونَ وَيَقُولُونَ لَكَ: أَأَنْتَ أَيْضًا قَدْ ضَعُفْتَ نَظِيرَنَا وَصِرْتَ مِثْلَنَا؟

They all will speak and say to you, 'You have become as weak as us. You have become like us.

١١ 11 أُهْبِطَ إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ فَخْرُكَ، رَنَّةُ أَعْوَادِكَ. تَحْتَكَ تُفْرَشُ ٱلرِّمَّةُ، وَغِطَاؤُكَ ٱلدُّودُ. (Sheol h7585)

Your pomp has been brought down to Sheol with the sound of your string instruments. Maggots are spread under you, and worms cover you.' (Sheol h7585)

١٢ 12 كَيْفَ سَقَطْتِ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ يَا زُهَرَةُ، بِنْتَ ٱلصُّبْحِ؟ كَيْفَ قُطِعْتَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ يَا قَاهِرَ ٱلْأُمَمِ؟

How you are fallen from heaven, daystar, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who conquered the nations!

١٣ 13 وَأَنْتَ قُلْتَ فِي قَلْبِكَ: أَصْعَدُ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ. أَرْفَعُ كُرْسِيِّي فَوْقَ كَوَاكِبِ ٱللهِ، وَأَجْلِسُ عَلَى جَبَلِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ فِي أَقَاصِي ٱلشَّمَالِ.

You had said in your heart, 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, and I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north.

١٤ 14 أَصْعَدُ فَوْقَ مُرْتَفَعَاتِ ٱلسَّحَابِ. أَصِيرُ مِثْلَ ٱلْعَلِيِّ.

I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High God.'

١٥ 15 لَكِنَّكَ ٱنْحَدَرْتَ إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ، إِلَى أَسَافِلِ ٱلْجُبِّ. (Sheol h7585)

Yet you are now brought down to Sheol, to the depths of the pit. (Sheol h7585)

١٦ 16 اَلَّذِينَ يَرَوْنَكَ يَتَطَلَّعُونَ إِلَيْكَ، يَتَأَمَّلُونَ فِيكَ. أَهَذَا هُوَ ٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلَّذِي زَلْزَلَ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَزَعْزَعَ ٱلْمَمَالِكَ،

Those who see you will gaze at you and they will pay attention to you. They will say, 'Is this the man who made the earth tremble, who shook kingdoms,

١٧ 17 ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ ٱلْعَالَمَ كَقَفْرٍ، وَهَدَمَ مُدُنَهُ، ٱلَّذِي لَمْ يُطْلِقْ أَسْرَاهُ إِلَى بُيُوتِهِمْ؟

who made the world like a wilderness, who overthrew its cities and did not let his prisoners go home?'

١٨ 18 كُلُّ مُلُوكِ ٱلْأُمَمِ بِأَجْمَعِهِمِ ٱضْطَجَعُوا بِٱلْكَرَامَةِ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي بَيْتِهِ.

All the kings of the nations, all of them lie down in honor, each one in his own tomb.

١٩ 19 وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَقَدْ طُرِحْتَ مِنْ قَبْرِكَ كَغُصْنٍ أَشْنَعَ، كَلِبَاسِ ٱلْقَتْلَى ٱلْمَضْرُوبِينَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، ٱلْهَابِطِينَ إِلَى حِجَارَةِ ٱلْجُبِّ، كَجُثَّةٍ مَدُوسَةٍ.

But you are cast out of your grave like a branch thrown away. The dead cover you like a garment, those pierced by the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit.

٢٠ 20 لَا تَتَّحِدُ بِهِمْ فِي ٱلْقَبْرِ لِأَنَّكَ أَخْرَبْتَ أَرْضَكَ، قَتَلْتَ شَعْبَكَ. لَا يُسَمَّى إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ نَسْلُ فَاعِلِي ٱلشَّرِّ.

You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land and killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will never be mentioned again.”

٢١ 21 هَيِّئُوا لِبَنِيهِ قَتْلًا بِإِثْمِ آبَائِهِمْ، فَلَا يَقُومُوا وَلَا يَرِثُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ وَلَا يَمْلَأُوا وَجْهَ ٱلْعَالَمِ مُدُنًا».

Prepare your slaughter for his children, for the iniquity of their ancestors, so they will not rise up and possess the earth and fill the whole world with cities.

٢٢ 22 «فَأَقُومُ عَلَيْهِمْ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. وَأَقْطَعُ مِنْ بَابِلَ ٱسْمًا وَبَقِيَّةً وَنَسْلًا وَذُرِّيَّةً، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

“I will rise up against them”—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts. “I will cut off from Babylon name, descendant, and posterity”—this is Yahweh's declaration.

٢٣ 23 وَأَجْعَلُهَا مِيرَاثًا لِلْقُنْفُذِ، وَآجَامَ مِيَاهٍ، وَأُكَنِّسُهَا بِمِكْنَسَةِ ٱلْهَلَاكِ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ».

“I will also make her into a possession of owls, and into pools of water, and I will sweep her with the broom of destruction”—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts.

٢٤ 24 قَدْ حَلَفَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَائِلًا: «إِنَّهُ كَمَا قَصَدْتُ يَصِيرُ، وَكَمَا نَوَيْتُ يَثْبُتُ:

Yahweh of hosts has sworn, “Surely, as I have intended, so it will come about; and as I have purposed, so it will be:

٢٥ 25 أَنْ أُحَطِّمَ أَشُّورَ فِي أَرْضِي وَأَدُوسَهُ عَلَى جِبَالِي، فَيَزُولَ عَنْهُمْ نِيرُهُ، وَيَزُولَ عَنْ كَتِفِهِمْ حِمْلُهُ».

I will break the Assyrian in my land, and on my mountains trample him underfoot. Then his yoke will be lifted from off them and his burden from off their shoulder.” Then his yoke will be lifted from off them and his burden from off their shoulder.”

٢٦ 26 هَذَا هُوَ ٱلقَضَاءُ ٱلْمَقْضِيُّ بِهِ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَهَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْيَدُ ٱلْمَمْدُودَةُ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ.

This is the plan that is intended for the whole earth, and this is the hand that is raised over all the nations.

٢٧ 27 فَإِنَّ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ قَدْ قَضَى، فَمَنْ يُبَطِّلُ؟ وَيَدُهُ هِيَ ٱلْمَمْدُودَةُ، فَمَنْ يَرُدُّهَا؟

For Yahweh of hosts has planned this; who will stop him? His hand is raised, and who will turn it back?

٢٨ 28 فِي سَنَةِ وَفَاةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ آحَازَ كَانَ هَذَا ٱلْوَحْيُ:

In the year that king Ahaz died this declaration came:

٢٩ 29 لَا تَفْرَحِي يَا جَمِيعَ فِلِسْطِينَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْقَضِيبَ ٱلضَّارِبَكِ ٱنْكَسَرَ، فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ أَصْلِ ٱلْحَيَّةِ يَخْرُجُ أُفْعُوانٌ، وَثَمَرَتُهُ تَكُونُ ثُعْبَانًا مُسِمًّا طَيَّارًا.

Do not rejoice, all you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken. For out of the serpent's root will grow out an adder, and his offspring will be a fiery flying serpent.

٣٠ 30 وَتَرْعَى أَبْكَارُ ٱلْمَسَاكِينِ، وَيَرْبِضُ ٱلْبَائِسُونَ بِٱلْأَمَانِ، وَأُمِيتُ أَصْلَكِ بِٱلْجُوعِ، فَيَقْتُلُ بَقِيَّتَكِ.

The firstborn of the poor will graze their sheep in my pastures, and the needy will lie down in safety. I will kill your root with famine that will put to death all your survivors.

٣١ 31 وَلْوِلْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْبَابُ. ٱصْرُخِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْمَدِينَةُ. قَدْ ذَابَ جَمِيعُكِ يَا فِلِسْطِينُ، لِأَنَّهُ مِنَ ٱلشَّمَالِ يَأْتِي دُخَانٌ، وَلَيْسَ شَاذٌّ فِي جُيُوشِهِ.

Howl, gate; cry, city; all of you will melt away, Philistia. For out of the north comes a cloud of smoke, and there is no straggler in his ranks.

٣٢ 32 فَبِمَاذَا يُجَابُ رُسُلُ ٱلْأُمَمِ؟ إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ أَسَّسَ صِهْيَوْنَ، وَبِهَا يَحْتَمِي بَائِسُو شَعْبِهِ.

How will they respond to the messengers of that nation? “Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will find refuge.”
