إِشَعْيَاءَ 25

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

O YHWH, You [are] my God, I exalt You, I confess Your Name, For You have done a wonderful thing, Counsels of old, steadfastness, O steadfast One.

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

For You made of a city a heap, Of a fortified city a ruin, A high place of strangers from [being] a city, It is not built for all time.

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

Therefore a strong people honors You, A city of the terrible nations fears You.

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

For You have been a stronghold for the poor, A stronghold for the needy in his distress, A refuge from storm, a shadow from heat, When the spirit of the terrible [is] as a storm—a wall.

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

As heat in a dry place, You humble the noise of strangers, [As] heat with the shadow of a thick cloud, The singing of the terrible is humbled.

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

And YHWH of Hosts has made, For all the peoples in this mountain, A banquet of fat things, A banquet of preserved things, Fat things full of marrow, Preserved things—refined.

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

And He has swallowed up in this mountain The face of the wrapping that is wrapped over all the peoples, And of the covering that is spread over all the 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 has swallowed up death in victory, And Lord YHWH has wiped [the] tear from off all faces, And He turns aside the reproach of His people from off all the earth, For YHWH has spoken.

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

And [one] has said in that day, “Behold, this [is] our God, We waited for Him, and He saves us, This [is] YHWH, we have waited for Him, We are 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 the hand of YHWH rests on this mountain, And Moab is trodden down under Him, As straw is trodden down on a dunghill.

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

And He spread out His hands in its midst, As the swimmer spreads out to swim; And He has humbled his excellence With the machinations of his hands.

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

And the fortress of the high place of your walls He has bowed down—He has made low, He has caused [it] to come to the earth—to dust.
