< إِشَعْيَاءَ 18 >
يَا أَرْضَ حَفِيفِ ٱلْأَجْنِحَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي عَبْرِ أَنْهَارِ كُوشَ، | ١ 1 |
Ha! land shadowing with wings, which art beyond the rivers of Cush,
ٱلْمُرْسِلَةَ رُسُلًا فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ وَفِي قَوَارِبَ مِنَ ٱلْبَرْدِيِّ عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْمِيَاهِ. ٱذْهَبُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلرُّسُلُ ٱلسَّرِيعُونَ إِلَى أُمَّةٍ طَوِيلَةٍ وَجَرْدَاءَ، إِلَى شَعْبٍ مَخُوفٍ مُنْذُ كَانَ فَصَاعِدًا، أُمَّةِ قُوَّةٍ وَشِدَّةٍ وَدَوْسٍ، قَدْ خَرَقَتِ ٱلْأَنْهَارُ أَرْضَهَا. | ٢ 2 |
that sendest ambassadors over the sea, and in vessels of papyrus upon the waters, [saying, ] Go, swift messengers, to a nation scattered and ravaged, to a people terrible from their existence and thenceforth; to a nation of continued waiting and of treading down, whose land the rivers have spoiled!
يَا جَمِيعَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْمَسْكُونَةِ وَقَاطِنِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، عِنْدَمَا تَرْتَفِعُ ٱلرَّايَةُ عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ تَنْظُرُونَ، وَعِنْدَمَا يُضْرَبُ بِٱلْبُوقِ تَسْمَعُونَ. | ٣ 3 |
All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, when a banner is lifted up on the mountains, see ye, and when a trumpet is blown, hear ye!
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ لِيَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «إِنِّي أَهْدَأُ وَأَنْظُرُ فِي مَسْكَنِي كَٱلْحَرِّ ٱلصَّافِي عَلَى ٱلْبَقْلِ، كَغَيْمِ ٱلنَّدَى فِي حَرِّ ٱلْحَصَادِ». | ٤ 4 |
For thus hath Jehovah said unto me: I will take my rest, and I will observe from my dwelling-place like clear heat upon herbs, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
فَإِنَّهُ قَبْلَ ٱلْحَصَادِ، عِنْدَ تَمَامِ ٱلزَّهْرِ، وَعِنْدَمَا يَصِيرُ ٱلزَّهْرُ حِصْرِمًا نَضِيجًا، يَقْطَعُ ٱلْقُضْبَانَ بِٱلْمَنَاجِلِ، وَيَنْزِعُ ٱلْأَفْنَانَ وَيَطْرَحُهَا. | ٥ 5 |
For before the harvest, when the blossoming is over, and the flower becometh a ripening grape, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning-knives, and take away [and] cut down the branches.
تُتْرَكُ مَعًا لِجَوَارِحِ ٱلْجِبَالِ وَلِوُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَتُصَيِّفُ عَلَيْهَا ٱلْجَوَارِحُ، وَتُشَتِّي عَلَيْهَا جَمِيعُ وُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٦ 6 |
They shall be left together unto the mountain birds of prey, and to the beasts of the earth; and the birds of prey shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.
فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ تُقَدَّمُ هَدِيَّةٌ لِرَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ مِنْ شَعْبٍ طَوِيلٍ وَأَجْرَدَ، وَمِنْ شَعْبٍ مَخُوفٍ مُنْذُ كَانَ فَصَاعِدًا، مِنْ أُمَّةٍ ذَاتِ قُوَّةٍ وَشِدَّةٍ وَدَوْسٍ، قَدْ خَرَقَتِ ٱلْأَنْهَارُ أَرْضَهَا، إِلَى مَوْضِعِ ٱسْمِ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، جَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ. | ٧ 7 |
In that time shall a present be brought unto Jehovah of hosts of a people scattered and ravaged, — and from a people terrible from their existence and thenceforth, a nation of continued waiting and of treading down, whose land the rivers have spoiled, ...to the place of the name of Jehovah of hosts, the mount Zion.
