إِشَعْيَاءَ 37
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ حَزَقِيَّا ذَلِكَ مَزَّقَ ثِيَابَهُ وَتَغَطَّى بِمِسْحٍ وَدَخَلَ بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١ 1 |
And it comes to pass, at King Hezekiah’s hearing, that he tears his garments, and covers himself with sackcloth, and enters the house of YHWH,
| وَأَرْسَلَ أَلِيَاقِيمَ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَشَبْنَةَ ٱلْكَاتِبَ وَشُيُوخَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ مُتَغَطِّينَ بِمُسُوحٍ إِلَى إِشَعْيَاءَ بْنِ آمُوصَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ. | ٢ 2 |
and sends Eliakim, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and [the] elderly of the priests, covering themselves with sackcloth, to Isaiah son of Amoz the prophet,
| فَقَالُوا لَهُ: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ حَزَقِيَّا: هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمُ يَوْمُ شِدَّةٍ وَتَأْدِيبٍ وَإِهَانَةٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَجِنَّةَ دَنَتْ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْلِدِ وَلَا قُوَّةَ عَلَى ٱلْوِلَادَةِ. | ٣ 3 |
and they say to him, “Thus said Hezekiah: A day of distress, and rebuke, and despising, [is] this day; for sons have come to the birth, and there is not power to bear.
| لَعَلَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ يَسْمَعُ كَلَامَ رَبْشَاقَى ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَهُ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ سَيِّدُهُ لِيُعَيِّرَ ٱلْإِلَهَ ٱلْحَيَّ، فَيُوَبِّخَ عَلَى ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. فَٱرْفَعْ صَلَاةً لِأَجْلِ ٱلْبَقِيَّةِ ٱلْمَوْجُودَةِ». | ٤ 4 |
It may be your God YHWH hears the words of Rabshakeh with which the king of Asshur his lord has sent him to reproach the living God, and has decided concerning the words that your God YHWH has heard, and you have lifted up prayer for the remnant that is found.”
| فَجَاءَ عَبِيدُ ٱلْمَلِكِ حَزَقِيَّا إِلَى إِشَعْيَاءَ. | ٥ 5 |
And the servants of King Hezekiah come to Isaiah,
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ إِشَعْيَاءُ: «هَكَذَا تَقُولُونَ لِسَيِّدِكُمْ: هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ: لَا تَخَفْ بِسَبَبِ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعْتَهُ، ٱلَّذِي جَدَّفَ عَلَيَّ بِهِ غِلْمَانُ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ. | ٦ 6 |
and Isaiah says to them, “Thus you say to your lord, Thus said YHWH: Do not be afraid because of the words that you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Asshur have reviled Me.
| هَأَنَذَا أَجْعَلُ فِيهِ رُوحًا فَيَسْمَعُ خَبَرًا وَيَرْجِعُ إِلَى أَرْضِهِ، وَأُسْقِطُهُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ فِي أَرْضِهِ». | ٧ 7 |
Behold, I am giving a spirit in him, and he has heard a report, and has turned back to his land, and I have caused him to fall by the sword in his land.”
| فَرَجَعَ رَبْشَاقَى وَوَجَدَ مَلِكَ أَشُّورَ يُحَارِبُ لِبْنَةَ، لِأَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَّهُ ٱرْتَحَلَ عَنْ لَخِيشَ. | ٨ 8 |
And Rabshakeh turns back and finds the king of Asshur fighting against Libnah, for he has heard that he has journeyed from Lachish.
| وَسَمِعَ عَنْ تِرْهَاقَةَ مَلِكِ كُوشَ قَوْلًا: «قَدْ خَرَجَ لِيُحَارِبَكَ». فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَرْسَلَ رُسُلًا إِلَى حَزَقِيَّا قَائِلًا: | ٩ 9 |
And he hears concerning Tirhakah king of Cush, saying, “He has come out to fight with you”; and he hears, and sends messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
| «هَكَذَا تُكَلِّمُونَ حَزَقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا قَائِلِينَ: لَا يَخْدَعْكَ إِلَهُكَ ٱلَّذِي أَنْتَ مُتَوَكِّلٌ عَلَيْهِ، قَائِلًا: لَا تُدْفَعُ أُورُشَلِيمُ إِلَى يَدِ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ. | ١٠ 10 |
“Thus you speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Do not let your God in whom you are trusting lift you up, saying, Jerusalem is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.
| إِنَّكَ قَدْ سَمِعْتَ مَا فَعَلَ مُلُوكُ أَشُّورَ بِجَمِيعِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي لِتَحْرِيمِهَا. وَهَلْ تَنْجُو أَنْتَ؟ | ١١ 11 |
Behold, you have heard that which the kings of Asshur have done to all the lands—to devote them—and you are delivered!
| هَلْ أَنْقَذَ آلِهَةُ ٱلْأُمَمِ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَهْلَكَهُمْ آبَائِي، جُوزَانَ وَحَارَانَ وَرَصَفَ وَبَنِي عَدَنَ، ٱلَّذِينَ فِي تَلَسَّارَ؟ | ١٢ 12 |
Did the gods of the nations deliver them whom my fathers destroyed—Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the sons of Eden, who [are] in Telassar?
| أَيْنَ مَلِكُ حَمَاةَ وَمَلِكُ أَرْفَادَ وَمَلِكُ مَدِينَةِ سَفَرْوَايِمَ وَهَيْنَعَ وَعِوَّا؟». | ١٣ 13 |
Where [is] the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?”
| فَأَخَذَ حَزَقِيَّا ٱلرَّسَائِلَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلرُّسُلِ وَقَرَأَهَا، ثُمَّ صَعِدَ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَنَشَرَهَا حَزَقِيَّا أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، | ١٤ 14 |
And Hezekiah takes the letters out of the hand of the messengers, and reads them, and Hezekiah goes up to the house of YHWH, and Hezekiah spreads it before YHWH.
| وَصَلَّى حَزَقِيَّا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: | ١٥ 15 |
And Hezekiah prays to YHWH, saying,
| «يَارَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ، إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْجَالِسَ فَوْقَ ٱلْكَرُوبِيمِ، أَنْتَ هُوَ ٱلْإِلَهُ وَحْدَكَ لِكُلِّ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. أَنْتَ صَنَعْتَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ. | ١٦ 16 |
“YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, inhabiting the cherubim, You [are] God Himself—You alone—to all kingdoms of the earth, You have made the heavens and the earth.
| أَمِلْ يَارَبُّ أُذُنَكَ وَٱسْمَعِ. ٱفْتَحْ يَارَبُّ عَيْنَيْكَ وَٱنْظُرْ، وَٱسْمَعْ كُلَّ كَلَامِ سَنْحَارِيبَ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَهُ لِيُعَيِّرَ ٱللهَ ٱلْحَيَّ. | ١٧ 17 |
Incline, O YHWH, Your ear, and hear; open, O YHWH, Your eyes and see; and hear all the words of Sennacherib that he has sent to reproach the living God.
| حَقًّا يَارَبُّ إِنَّ مُلُوكَ أَشُّورَ قَدْ خَرَّبُوا كُلَّ ٱلْأُمَمِ وَأَرْضَهُمْ، | ١٨ 18 |
Truly, O YHWH, kings of Asshur have laid waste all the lands and their land,
| وَدَفَعُوا آلِهَتَهُمْ إِلَى ٱلنَّارِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَيْسُوا آلِهَةً بَلْ صَنْعَةُ أَيْدِي ٱلنَّاسِ، خَشَبٌ وَحَجَرٌ، فَأَبَادُوهُمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
so as to put their gods into fire—for they [are] no gods, but work of the hands of man, wood and stone—and they destroy them.
| وَٱلْآنَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا خَلِّصْنَا مِنْ يَدِهِ، فَتَعْلَمَ مَمَالِكُ ٱلْأَرْضِ كُلِّهَا أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ ٱلرَّبُّ وَحْدَكَ». | ٢٠ 20 |
And now, our God YHWH, save us from his hand, and all kingdoms of the earth know that You [are] YHWH, You alone.”
| فَأَرْسَلَ إِشَعْيَاءُ بْنُ آمُوصَ إِلَى حَزَقِيَّا قَائِلًا: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي صَلَّيْتَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ جِهَةِ سَنْحَارِيبَ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ: | ٢١ 21 |
And Isaiah son of Amoz sends to Hezekiah, saying, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: That which you have prayed to Me concerning Sennacherib king of Asshur—
| هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِ: اِحْتَقَرَتْكَ. ٱسْتَهْزَأَتْ بِكَ ٱلْعَذْرَاءُ ٱبْنَةُ صِهْيَوْنَ. نَحْوَكَ أَنْغَضَتِ ٱبْنَةُ أُورُشَلِيمَ رَأْسَهَا. | ٢٢ 22 |
this [is] the word that YHWH spoke concerning him: Trampled on you, laughed at you, Has the virgin daughter of Zion, The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken the head behind you.
| مَنْ عَيَّرْتَ وَجَدَّفْتَ، وَعَلَى مَنْ عَلَّيْتَ صَوْتًا، وَقَدْ رَفَعْتَ إِلَى ٱلْعَلَاءِ عَيْنَيْكَ؟ عَلَى قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ! | ٢٣ 23 |
Whom have you reproached and reviled? And against whom—lifted up the voice? Indeed, you lift up your eyes on high Against the Holy One of Israel.
| عَنْ يَدِ عَبِيدِكَ عَيَّرْتَ ٱلسَّيِّدَ، وَقُلْتَ: بِكَثْرَةِ مَرْكَبَاتِي قَدْ صَعِدْتُ إِلَى عُلُوِّ ٱلْجِبَالِ، عِقَابِ لُبْنَانَ، فَأَقْطَعُ أَرْزَهُ ٱلطَّوِيلَ وَأَفْضَلَ سَرْوِهِ، وَأَدْخُلُ أَقْصَى عُلُوِّهِ، وَعْرَ كَرْمَلِهِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
By the hand of your servants You have reviled the Lord, and say: In the multitude of my chariots I have come up to a high place of hills, The sides of Lebanon, And I cut down the height of its cedars, The choice of its firs, And I enter the high place of its extremity, The forest of its Carmel.
| أَنَا قَدْ حَفَرْتُ وَشَرِبْتُ مِيَاهًا، وَأُنَشِّفُ بِبَطْنِ قَدَمِي جَمِيعَ خُلْجَانِ مِصْرَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
I have dug and drunk waters, And I dry up with the sole of my steps All floods of a bulwark.
| أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ؟ مُنْذُ ٱلْبَعِيدِ صَنَعْتُهُ. مُنْذُ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْقَدِيمَةِ صَوَّرْتُهُ. ٱلْآنَ أَتَيْتُ بِهِ. فَتَكُونُ لِتَخْرِيبِ مُدُنٍ مُحَصَّنَةٍ حَتَّى تَصِيرَ رَوَابِيَ خَرِبَةً. | ٢٦ 26 |
Have you not heard from afar [that] I did it, From days of old—that I formed it? Now I have brought it in, And it is to make desolate, Ruinous heaps—fortified cities,
| فَسُكَّانُهَا قِصَارُ ٱلْأَيْدِي قَدِ ٱرْتَاعُوا وَخَجِلُوا. صَارُوا كَعُشْبِ ٱلْحَقْلِ وَكَٱلنَّبَاتِ ٱلْأَخْضَرِ، كَحَشِيشِ ٱلسُّطُوحِ، وَكَٱلْمَلْفُوحِ قَبْلَ نُمُوِّهِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
And their inhabitants are feeble-handed, They were broken down, and are dried up. They have been the herb of the field, And the greenness of the tender grass, Grass of the roofs, And blasted grain, before it has risen up.
| وَلَكِنَّنِي عَالِمٌ بِجُلُوسِكَ وَخُرُوجِكَ وَدُخُولِكَ وَهَيَجَانِكَ عَلَيَّ. | ٢٨ 28 |
And your sitting down, and your going out, And your coming in, I have known, And your anger toward Me.
| لِأَنَّ هَيَجَانَكَ عَلَيَّ وَعَجْرَفَتَكَ قَدْ صَعِدَا إِلَى أُذُنَيَّ، أَضَعُ خِزَامَتِي فِي أَنْفِكَ وَشَكِيمَتِي فِي شَفَتَيْكَ، وَأَرُدُّكَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي جِئْتَ فِيهِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Because of your anger toward Me, And your noise—it came up into My ears, I have put My hook in your nose, And My bridle in your lips, And I have caused you to turn back In the way in which you came.
| «وَهَذِهِ لَكَ ٱلْعَلَامَةُ: تَأْكُلُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلسَّنَةَ زِرِّيعًا، وَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ خِلْفَةً، وَأَمَّا ٱلسَّنَةُ ٱلثَّالِثَةُ فَفِيهَا تَزْرَعُونَ وَتَحْصِدُونَ، وَتَغْرِسُونَ كُرُومًا وَتَأْكُلُونَ أَثْمَارَهَا. | ٣٠ 30 |
And this [is] the sign to you, Self-sown grain [is] food of the year, And in the second year the spontaneous growth, And in the third year, sow and reap, And plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
| وَيَعُودُ ٱلنَّاجُونَ مِنْ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا ٱلْبَاقُونَ يَتَأَصَّلُونَ إِلَى أَسْفَلَ، وَيَصْنَعُونَ ثَمَرًا إِلَى مَا فَوْقُ. | ٣١ 31 |
And it has continued—The escaped of the house of Judah that has been left—To take root beneath, And it has made fruit upward.
| لِأَنَّهُ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ تَخْرُجُ بَقِيَّةٌ، وَنَاجُونَ مِنْ جَبَلِ صِهْيَوْنَ. غَيْرَةُ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ تَصْنَعُ هَذَا. | ٣٢ 32 |
For a remnant goes forth from Jerusalem, And an escape from Mount Zion, The zeal of YHWH of Hosts does this.
| «لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنْ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ: لَا يَدْخُلُ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ، وَلَا يَرْمِي هُنَاكَ سَهْمًا، وَلَا يَتَقَدَّمُ عَلَيْهَا بِتُرْسٍ، وَلَا يُقِيمُ عَلَيْهَا مِتْرَسَةً. | ٣٣ 33 |
Therefore, thus said YHWH, Concerning the king of Asshur: He does not come into this city, Nor does he shoot an arrow there, Nor does he come before it [with] shield, Nor does he pour out a mound against it.
| فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي جَاءَ فِيهِ يَرْجِعُ، وَإِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لَا يَدْخُلُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ٣٤ 34 |
In the way that he came, in it he turns back, And to this city he does not come in, A declaration of YHWH,
| وَأُحَامِي عَنْ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ لِأُخَلِّصَهَا مِنْ أَجْلِ نَفْسِي، وَمِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي». | ٣٥ 35 |
And I have covered over this city, To save it, for My own sake, And for the sake of My servant David.”
| فَخَرَجَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَضَرَبَ مِنْ جَيْشِ أَشُّورَ مِئَةً وَخَمْسَةً وَثَمَانِينَ أَلْفًا. فَلَمَّا بَكَّرُوا صَبَاحًا إِذَا هُمْ جَمِيعًا جُثَثٌ مَيِّتَةٌ. | ٣٦ 36 |
And a messenger of YHWH goes out, and strikes in the camp of Asshur one hundred and eighty-five thousand; and [men] rise early in the morning, and behold, all of them [are] dead corpses.
| فَٱنْصَرَفَ سَنْحَارِيبُ مَلِكُ أَشُّورَ وَذَهَبَ رَاجِعًا وَأَقَامَ فِي نِينَوَى. | ٣٧ 37 |
And he journeys, and goes, and Sennacherib king of Asshur turns back, and dwells in Nineveh.
| وَفِيمَا هُوَ سَاجِدٌ فِي بَيْتِ نِسْرُوخَ إِلَهِهِ ضَرَبَهُ أَدْرَمَّلَكُ وَشَرْآصَرُ ٱبْنَاهُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَنَجَوَا إِلَى أَرْضِ أَرَارَاطَ. وَمَلَكَ أَسَرْحَدُّونَ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. | ٣٨ 38 |
And it comes to pass, he is bowing himself in the house of his god Nisroch, and his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer have struck him with the sword, and they have escaped to the land of Ararat, and his son Esar-Haddon reigns in his stead.
