إِشَعْيَاءَ 18
| يَا أَرْضَ حَفِيفِ ٱلْأَجْنِحَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي عَبْرِ أَنْهَارِ كُوشَ، | ١ 1 |
Ah, the land of the rustling of wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia:
| 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 sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of papyrus upon the waters, [saying], Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation tall and smooth, to a people terrible from their beginning onward; a nation that meteth out and treadeth down, whose land the rivers divide!
| 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 ye dwellers on the earth, when an ensign is lifted up on the mountains, see ye; and when the 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 the LORD said unto me, I will be still, and I will behold in my dwelling place; like clear heat in sunshine, 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 afore the harvest, when the blossom is over, and the flower becometh a ripening grape, he shall cut off the sprigs with pruning-hooks, and the spreading branches shall he take away [and] cut down.
| تُتْرَكُ مَعًا لِجَوَارِحِ ٱلْجِبَالِ وَلِوُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَتُصَيِّفُ عَلَيْهَا ٱلْجَوَارِحُ، وَتُشَتِّي عَلَيْهَا جَمِيعُ وُحُوشِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٦ 6 |
They shall be left together unto the ravenous birds of the mountains, and to the beasts of the earth: and the ravenous birds 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 the LORD of hosts of a people tall and smooth, and from a people terrible from their beginning onward; a nation that meteth out and treadeth down, whose land the rivers divide, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion.
