إِشَعْيَاءَ 33

١ 1 وَيْلٌ لَكَ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُخْرِبُ وَأَنْتَ لَمْ تُخْرَبْ، وَأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاهِبُ وَلَمْ يَنْهَبُوكَ. حِينَ تَنْتَهِي مِنَ ٱلتَّخْرِيبِ تُخْرَبُ، وَحِينَ تَفْرَغُ مِنَ ٱلنَّهْبِ يَنْهَبُونَكَ.

Woe to them that afflict you; but no one makes you miserable: and he that deals perfidiously with you does not deal perfidiously: they that deal perfidiously shall be taken and given up, and as a moth on a garment, so shall they be spoiled.

٢ 2 يَارَبُّ، تَرَاءَفْ عَلَيْنَا. إِيَّاكَ ٱنْتَظَرْنَا. كُنْ عَضُدَهُمْ فِي ٱلْغَدَوَاتِ. خَلَاصَنَا أَيْضًا فِي وَقْتِ ٱلشِّدَّةِ.

Lord, have mercy upon us; for we have trusted in you: the seed of the rebellious is gone to destruction, but our deliverance was in a time of affliction.

٣ 3 مِنْ صَوْتِ ٱلضَّجِيجِ هَرَبَتِ ٱلشُّعُوبُ. مِنِ ٱرْتِفَاعِكَ تَبَدَّدَتِ ٱلْأُمَمُ.

By reason of the terrible sound the nations were dismayed for fear of you, and the heathen were scattered.

٤ 4 وَيُجْنَى سَلَبُكُمْ جَنَى ٱلْجَرَادِ. كَتَرَاكُضِ ٱلْجُنْدُبِ يُتَرَاكَضُ عَلَيْهِ.

And now shall the spoils of your small and great be gathered: as if one should gather locusts, so shall they mock you.

٥ 5 تَعَالَى ٱلرَّبُّ لِأَنَّهُ سَاكِنٌ فِي ٱلْعَلَاءِ. مَلَأَ صِهْيَوْنَ حَقًّا وَعَدْلًا.

The God who dwells on high is holy: Sion is filled with judgment and righteousness.

٦ 6 فَيَكُونُ أَمَانُ أَوْقَاتِكَ وَفْرَةَ خَلَاصٍ وَحِكْمَةٍ وَمَعْرِفَةٍ. مَخَافَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ هِيَ كَنْزُهُ.

They shall be delivered up to the law: our salvation is our treasure: there are wisdom and knowledge and piety toward the Lord; these are the treasures of righteousness.

٧ 7 هُوَذَا أَبْطَالُهُمْ قَدْ صَرَخُوا خَارِجًا. رُسُلُ ٱلسَّلَامِ يَبْكُونَ بِمَرَارَةٍ.

Behold now, these shall be terrified with fear of you: those whom you feared shall cry out because of you: messengers shall be sent, bitterly weeping, entreating for peace.

٨ 8 خَلَتِ ٱلسِّكَكُ. بَادَ عَابِرُ ٱلسَّبِيلِ. نَكَثَ ٱلْعَهْدَ. رَذَلَ ٱلْمُدُنَ. لَمْ يَعْتَدَّ بِإِنْسَانٍ.

For the ways of these shall be made desolate: the terror of the nations has been made to cease, and the covenant with these is taken away, and you shall by no means deem them men.

٩ 9 نَاحَتْ، ذَبُلَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ. خَجِلَ لُبْنَانُ وَتَلِفَ. صَارَ شَارُونُ كَٱلْبَادِيَةِ. نُثِرَ بَاشَانُ وَكَرْمَلُ.

The land mourns; Libanus is ashamed: Saron is become marshes; Galilee shall be laid bare, and Chermel.

١٠ 10 «اَلْآنَ أَقُومُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٱلْآنَ أَصْعَدُ. ٱلْآنَ أَرْتَفِعُ.

Now will I arise, says the Lord, now will I be glorified; now will I be exalted.

١١ 11 تَحْبَلُونَ بِحَشِيشٍ، تَلِدُونَ قَشِيشًا. نَفَسُكُمْ نَارٌ تَأْكُلُكمْ.

Now shall you see, now shall you perceive; the strength of your breath, shall be vain; fire shall devour you.

١٢ 12 وَتَصِيرُ ٱلشُّعُوبُ وَقُودَ كِلْسٍ، أَشْوَاكًا مَقْطُوعَةً تُحْرَقُ بِٱلنَّارِ».

And the nations shall be burnt up; as a thorn in the field cast out and burnt up.

١٣ 13 اِسْمَعُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْبَعِيدُونَ مَا صَنَعْتُ، وَٱعْرِفُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْقَرِيبُونَ بَطْشِي.

They that are afar off shall hear what I have done; they that draw near shall know my strength.

١٤ 14 ٱرْتَعَبَ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ ٱلْخُطَاةُ. أَخَذَتِ ٱلرِّعْدَةُ ٱلْمُنَافِقِينَ: «مَنْ مِنَّا يَسْكُنُ فِي نَارٍ آكِلَةٍ؟ مَنْ مِنَّا يَسْكُنُ فِي وَقَائِدَ أَبَدِيَّةٍ؟»

The sinners in Sion have departed; trembling shall seize the ungodly. Who will tell you that a fire is kindled? Who will tell you of the eternal place?

١٥ 15 ٱلسَّالِكُ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَٱلْمُتَكَلِّمُ بِٱلِٱسْتِقَامَةِ، ٱلرَّاذِلُ مَكْسَبَ ٱلْمَظَالِمِ، ٱلنَّافِضُ يَدَيْهِ مِنْ قَبْضِ ٱلرَّشْوَةِ، ٱلَّذِي يَسُدُّ أُذُنَيْهِ عَنْ سَمْعِ ٱلدِّمَاءِ، وَيُغَمِّضُ عَيْنَيْهِ عَنِ ٱلنَّظَرِ إِلَى ٱلشَّرِّ

He that walks in righteousness, speaking rightly, hating transgression and iniquity, and shaking his hands from gifts, stopping his ears that he should not hear the judgment of blood, shutting his eyes that he should not see injustice.

١٦ 16 هُوَ فِي ٱلْأَعَالِي يَسْكُنُ. حُصُونُ ٱلصُّخُورِ مَلْجَأُهُ. يُعْطَى خُبْزَهُ، وَمِيَاهُهُ مَأْمُونَةٌ.

he shall dwell in a high cave of a strong rock: bread shall be given him, and his water shall be sure.

١٧ 17 اَلْمَلِكَ بِبَهَائِهِ تَنْظُرُ عَيْنَاكَ. تَرَيَانِ أَرْضًا بَعِيدَةً.

You shall see a king with glory: your eyes shall behold a land from afar.

١٨ 18 قَلْبُكَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلرُّعْبَ: «أَيْنَ ٱلْكَاتِبُ؟ أَيْنَ ٱلْجَابِي؟ أَيْنَ ٱلَّذِي عَدَّ ٱلْأَبْرَاجَ؟»

Your soul shall meditate terror. Where are the scribes? where are the counselors, where is he that numbers them that are growing up,

١٩ 19 ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلشَّرِسَ لَا تَرَى. ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلْغَامِضَ ٱللُّغَةِ عَنِ ٱلْإِدْرَاكِ، ٱلْعَيِيَّ بِلِسَانٍ لَا يُفْهَمُ.

[even] the small and great people? with whom he took not counsel, neither did he understand [a people] of deep speech, so that a despised people should not hear, and there is no understanding to him that hears.

٢٠ 20 اُنْظُرْ صِهْيَوْنَ مَدِينَةَ أَعْيَادِنَا. عَيْنَاكَ تَرَيَانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ مَسْكِنًا مُطْمَئِنًّا، خَيْمَةً لَا تَنْتَقِلُ، لَا تُقْلَعُ أَوْتَادُهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَشَيْءٌ مِنْ أَطْنَابِهَا لَا يَنْقَطِعُ.

Behold the city of Sion, our refuge: your eyes shall behold Jerusalem, a rich city, tabernacles which shall not be shaken, neither shall the pins of her tabernacle be moved for ever, neither shall her cords be at all broken:

٢١ 21 بَلْ هُنَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْعَزِيزُ لَنَا مَكَانُ أَنْهَارٍ وَتُرَعٍ وَاسِعَةِ ٱلشَّوَاطِئِ. لَا يَسِيرُ فِيهَا قَارِبٌ بِمِقْذَافٍ، وَسَفِينَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ لَا تَجْتَازُ فِيهَا.

for the name of the Lord is great to you: you shall have a place, [even] rivers and wide and spacious channels: you shall not go this way, neither a vessel with oars go [thereby].

٢٢ 22 فَإِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَاضِينَا. ٱلرَّبُّ شَارِعُنَا. ٱلرَّبُّ مَلِكُنَا هُوَ يُخَلِّصُنَا.

For my God is great: the Lord our judge shall not pass me by: the Lord is our prince, the Lord is our king; the Lord, he shall save us.

٢٣ 23 ٱرْتَخَتْ حِبَالُكِ. لَا يُشَدِّدُونَ قَاعِدَةَ سَارِيَتِهِمْ. لَا يَنْشُرُونَ قِلْعًا. حِينَئِذٍ قُسِمَ سَلَبُ غَنِيمَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ. ٱلْعُرْجُ نَهَبُوا نَهْبًا.

Your cords are broken, for they had no strength: your meat has given way, it shall not spread the sails, it shall not bear a signal, until it be given up for plunder; therefore shall many lame men take spoil.

٢٤ 24 وَلَا يَقُولُ سَاكِنٌ: «أَنَا مَرِضْتُ». ٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلسَّاكِنُ فِيهَا مَغْفُورُ ٱلْإِثْمِ.

And the people dwelling among them shall by no means say, I am in pain: for their sin shall be forgiven them.
