إِشَعْيَاءَ 25

١ 1 يَارَبُّ، أَنْتَ إِلَهِي أُعَظِّمُكَ. أَحْمَدُ ٱسْمَكَ لِأَنَّكَ صَنَعْتَ عَجَبًا. مَقَاصِدُكَ مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ أَمَانَةٌ وَصِدْقٌ.

O Jehovah, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things, [even] counsels of old, in faithfulness [and] truth.

٢ 2 لِأَنَّكَ جَعَلْتَ مَدِينَةً رُجْمَةً. قَرْيَةً حَصِينَةً رَدْمًا. قَصْرَ أَعَاجِمَ أَنْ لَا تَكُونَ مَدِينَةً. لَا يُبْنَى إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ.

For thou hast made of a city a heap, of a fortified city a ruin, a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.

٣ 3 لِذَلِكَ يُكْرِمُكَ شَعْبٌ قَوِيٌّ، وَتَخَافُ مِنْكَ قَرْيَةُ أُمَمٍ عُتَاةٍ.

Therefore shall a strong people glorify thee; a city of terrible nations shall fear thee.

٤ 4 لِأَنَّكَ كُنْتَ حِصْنًا لِلْمِسْكِينِ، حِصْنًا لِلْبَائِسِ فِي ضِيقِهِ، مَلْجَأً مِنَ ٱلسَّيْلِ، ظِلًّا مِنَ ٱلْحَرِّ، إِذْ كَانَتْ نَفْخَةُ ٱلْعُتَاةِ كَسَيْلٍ عَلَى حَائِطٍ.

For thou hast been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.

٥ 5 كَحَرٍّ فِي يَبَسٍ تَخْفِضُ ضَجِيجَ ٱلْأَعَاجِمِ. كَحَرٍّ بِظِلِّ غَيْمٍ يُذَلُّ غِنَاءُ ٱلْعُتَاةِ.

As the heat in a dry place wilt thou bring down the noise of strangers; as the heat by the shade of a cloud, the song of the terrible ones shall be brought low.

٦ 6 وَيَصْنَعُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ فِي هَذَا ٱلْجَبَلِ وَلِيمَةَ سَمَائِنَ، وَلِيمَةَ خَمْرٍ عَلَى دَرْدِيٍّ، سَمَائِنَ مُمِخَّةٍ، دَرْدِيٍّ مُصَفًّى.

And in this mountain will Jehovah of hosts make unto all peoples a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.

٧ 7 وَيُفْنِي فِي هَذَا ٱلْجَبَلِ وَجْهَ ٱلنِّقَابِ. ٱلنِّقَابِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ، وَٱلْغِطَاءَ ٱلْمُغَطَّى بِهِ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ.

And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering that covereth all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations.

٨ 8 يَبْلَعُ ٱلْمَوْتَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَيَمْسَحُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلدُّمُوعَ عَنْ كُلِّ ٱلْوُجُوهِ، وَيَنْزِعُ عَارَ شَعْبِهِ عَنْ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ.

He hath swallowed up death for ever; and the Lord Jehovah will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the reproach of his people will he take away from off all the earth: for Jehovah hath spoken it.

٩ 9 وَيُقَالُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ: «هُوَذَا هَذَا إِلَهُنَا. ٱنْتَظَرْنَاهُ فَخَلَّصَنَا. هَذَا هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱنْتَظَرْنَاهُ. نَبْتَهِجُ وَنَفْرَحُ بِخَلَاصِهِ».

And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is Jehovah; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّ يَدَ ٱلرَّبِّ تَسْتَقِرُّ عَلَى هَذَا ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَيُدَاسُ مُوآبُ فِي مَكَانِهِ كَمَا يُدَاسُ ٱلتِّبْنُ فِي مَاءِ ٱلْمَزْبَلَةِ.

For in this mountain will the hand of Jehovah rest; and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the water of the dunghill.

١١ 11 فَيَبْسِطُ يَدَيْهِ فِيهِ كَمَا يَبْسِطُ ٱلسَّابِحُ لِيَسْبَحَ، فَيَضَعُ كِبْرِيَاءَهُ مَعَ مَكَايِدِ يَدَيْهِ.

And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth [his hands] to swim; but [Jehovah] will lay low his pride together with the craft of his hands.

١٢ 12 وَصَرْحَ ٱرْتِفَاعِ أَسْوَارِكِ يَخْفِضُهُ، يَضَعُهُ، يُلْصِقُهُ بِٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى ٱلتُّرَابِ.

And the high fortress of thy walls hath he brought down, laid low, and brought to the ground, even to the dust.
