إِشَعْيَاءَ 17
| وَحْيٌ مِنْ جِهَةِ دِمَشْقَ: هُوَذَا دِمَشْقُ تُزَالُ مِنْ بَيْنِ ٱلْمُدُنِ وَتَكُونُ رُجْمَةَ رَدْمٍ. | ١ 1 |
THE WORD AGAINST DAMASCUS. Behold, Damascus shall be taken away from amongst cities, and shall become a ruin;
| مُدُنُ عَرُوعِيرَ مَتْرُوكَةٌ. تَكُونُ لِلْقُطْعَانِ، فَتَرْبِضُ وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُخِيفُ. | ٢ 2 |
abandoned for ever, to [be] a fold and resting-place for flocks, and there shall be none to go after them.
| وَيَزُولُ ٱلْحِصْنُ مِنْ أَفْرَايِمَ وَٱلْمُلْكُ مِنْ دِمَشْقَ وَبَقِيَّةِ أَرَامَ. فَتَصِيرُ كَمَجْدِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. | ٣ 3 |
And she shall no longer be a strong place for Ephraim to flee to, and there shall no longer be a kingdom in Damascus, or a remnant of Syrians; for you are no better than the children of Israel, [even] than their glory; thus says the Lord of hosts.
| وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنَّ مَجْدَ يَعْقُوبَ يُذَلُّ، وَسَمَانَةَ لَحْمِهِ تَهْزُلُ، | ٤ 4 |
There shall be in that day a failure of the glory of Jacob, and the riches of his glory shall be shaken.
| وَيَكُونُ كَجَمْعِ ٱلْحَصَّادِينَ ٱلزَّرْعَ، وَذِرَاعُهُ تَحْصِدُ ٱلسَّنَابِلَ، وَيَكُونُ كَمَنْ يَلْقُطُ سَنَابِلَ فِي وَادِي رَفَايِمَ. | ٥ 5 |
And it shall be as if one should gather standing corn, and reap the grain of the ears; and it shall be as if one should gather ears in a rich valley;
| وَتَبْقَى فِيهِ خُصَاصَةٌ كَنَفْضِ زَيْتُونَةٍ، حَبَّتَانِ أَوْ ثَلَاثٌ فِي رَأْسِ ٱلْفَرْعِ، وَأَرْبَعٌ أَوْ خَمْسٌ فِي أَفْنَانِ ٱلْمُثْمِرَةِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٦ 6 |
and [as if] there should be left stubble therein, or [as it were] the berries of an olive tree, two or three on the topmost bough, or [as if] four or five should be left on their branches; thus says the Lord, the God of Israel.
| فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ يَلْتَفِتُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ إِلَى صَانِعِهِ وَتَنْظُرُ عَيْنَاهُ إِلَى قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ٧ 7 |
In that day a man shall trust in him that made him, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.
| وَلَا يَلْتَفِتُ إِلَى ٱلْمَذَابِحِ صَنْعَةِ يَدَيْهِ، وَلَا يَنْظُرُ إِلَى مَا صَنَعَتْهُ أَصَابِعُهُ: ٱلسَّوَارِيَ وَٱلشَّمْسَاتِ. | ٨ 8 |
And they shall not at all trust in their altars, nor in the works of their hands, which their fingers made; and they shall not look to the trees, nor to their abominations.
| فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ تَصِيرُ مُدُنُهُ ٱلْحَصِينَةُ كَٱلرَّدْمِ فِي ٱلْغَابِ، وَٱلشَّوَامِخُ ٱلَّتِي تَرَكُوهَا مِنْ وَجْهِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَصَارَتْ خَرَابًا. | ٩ 9 |
In that day your cities shall be deserted, as the Amorites and the Evaeans deserted [theirs], because of the children of Israel; and they shall be desolate.
| لِأَنَّكِ نَسِيتِ إِلَهَ خَلَاصِكِ وَلَمْ تَذْكُرِي صَخْرَةَ حِصْنِكِ، لِذَلِكَ تَغْرِسِينَ أَغْرَاسًا نَزِهَةً وَتَنْصِبِينَ نُصْبَةً غَرِيبَةً. | ١٠ 10 |
Because you have forsaken God your Saviour, and have not been mindful of the Lord your helper; therefore shall you plant a false plant, and a false seed.
| يَوْمَ غَرْسِكِ تُسَيِّجِينَهَا، وَفِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ تَجْعَلِينَ زَرْعَكِ يُزْهِرُ. وَلَكِنْ يَهْرُبُ ٱلْحَصِيدُ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلضَّرْبَةِ ٱلْمُهْلِكَةِ وَٱلْكَآبَةِ ٱلْعَدِيمَةِ ٱلرَّجَاءِ. | ١١ 11 |
In the day wherein you shall plant you shall be deceived; but if you sow in the morning, [the seed] shall spring up for a crop in the day wherein you shall obtain an inheritance, and as a man's father, you shall obtain an inheritance for your sons.
| آهِ! ضَجِيجُ شُعُوبٍ كَثِيرَةٍ تَضِجُّ كَضَجِيجِ ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَهَدِيرِ قَبَائِلَ تَهْدِرُ كَهَدِيرِ مِيَاهٍ غَزِيرَةٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
Woe [to] the multitude of many nations, as the swelling sea, so shall you be confounded; and the force of many nations shall sound like water;
| قَبَائِلُ تَهْدِرُ كَهَدِيرِ مِيَاهٍ كَثِيرَةٍ. وَلَكِنَّهُ يَنْتَهِرُهَا فَتَهْرُبُ بَعِيدًا، وَتُطْرَدُ كَعُصَافَةِ ٱلْجِبَالِ أَمَامَ ٱلرِّيحِ، وَكَالْجُلِّ أَمَامَ ٱلزَّوْبَعَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
many nations like much water, as when much water rushes violently: and they shall drive him away, and pursue him afar, as the dust of chaff when men winnow before the wind, and as a storm whirling the dust of the wheel.
| فِي وَقْتِ ٱلْمَسَاءِ إِذَا رُعْبٌ. قَبْلَ ٱلصُّبْحِ لَيْسُوا هُمْ. هَذَا نَصِيبُ نَاهِبِينَا وَحَظُّ سَالِبِينَا. | ١٤ 14 |
Towards evening, and there shall be grief; before the morning, and he shall not be. This is the portion of them that spoiled you, and the inheritance to them that robbed you of your inheritance.
