إِشَعْيَاءَ 38
| فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ مَرِضَ حَزَقِيَّا لِلْمَوْتِ، فَجَاءَ إِلَيْهِ إِشَعْيَاءُ بْنُ آمُوصَ ٱلنَّبِيُّ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَوْصِ بَيْتَكَ لِأَنَّكَ تَمُوتُ وَلَا تَعِيشُ». | ١ 1 |
In those days has Hezekiah been sick to death, and Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, comes to him and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Give a charge to your house, for you [are] dying, and do not live.”
| فَوَجَّهَ حَزَقِيَّا وَجْهَهُ إِلَى ٱلْحَائِطِ وَصَلَّى إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ | ٢ 2 |
And Hezekiah turns around his face to the wall, and prays to YHWH,
| وَقَالَ: «آهِ يَارَبُّ، ٱذْكُرْ كَيْفَ سِرْتُ أَمَامَكَ بِٱلْأَمَانَةِ وَبِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ وَفَعَلْتُ ٱلْحَسَنَ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ». وَبَكَى حَزَقِيَّا بُكَاءً عَظِيمًا. | ٣ 3 |
and says, “Ah, now, O YHWH, please remember how I have habitually walked before You in truth, and with a perfect heart, and I have done that which [is] good in your eyes”; and Hezekiah weeps [with] a great weeping.
| فَصَارَ قَوْلُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى إِشَعْيَاءَ قَائِلًا: | ٤ 4 |
And a word of YHWH is to Isaiah, saying,
| «ٱذْهَبْ وَقُلْ لِحَزَقِيَّا: هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ دَاوُدَ أَبِيكَ: قَدْ سَمِعْتُ صَلَاتَكَ. قَدْ رَأَيْتُ دُمُوعَكَ. هَأَنَذَا أُضِيفُ إِلَى أَيَّامِكَ خَمْسَ عَشَرَةَ سَنَةً. | ٥ 5 |
“Go, and you have said to Hezekiah, Thus said YHWH, God of your father David: I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tear, behold, I am adding fifteen years to your days,
| وَمِنْ يَدِ مَلِكِ أَشُّورَ أُنْقِذُكَ وَهَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ. وَأُحَامِي عَنْ هَذِهِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. | ٦ 6 |
and out of the hand of the king of Asshur I deliver you and this city, and have covered over this city.
| وَهَذِهِ لَكَ ٱلْعَلَامَةُ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَفْعَلُ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ: | ٧ 7 |
And this [is] to you the sign from YHWH, that YHWH does this thing that He has spoken.
| هَأَنَذَا أُرَجِّعُ ظِلَّ ٱلدَّرَجَاتِ ٱلَّذِي نَزَلَ فِي دَرَجَاتِ آحَازَ بِٱلشَّمْسِ عَشَرَ دَرَجَاتٍ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ». فَرَجَعَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ عَشَرَ دَرَجَاتٍ فِي ٱلدَّرَجَاتِ ٱلَّتِي نَزَلَتْهَا. | ٨ 8 |
Behold, I am bringing back the shadow of the degrees that it has gone down on the degrees of Ahaz, by the sun, backward ten degrees”; and the sun turns back ten degrees in the degrees that it had gone down.
| كِتَابَةٌ لِحَزَقِيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا إِذْ مَرِضَ وَشُفِيَ مِنْ مَرَضِهِ: | ٩ 9 |
A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah concerning his being sick when he revives from his sickness:
| أَنَا قُلْتُ: «فِي عِزِّ أَيَّامِي أَذْهَبُ إِلَى أَبْوَابِ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ. قَدْ أُعْدِمْتُ بَقِيَّةَ سِنِيَّ. (Sheol h7585) | ١٠ 10 |
“I said in the cutting off of my days, I go to the gates of Sheol, I have numbered the remnant of my years. (Sheol h7585)
| قُلْتُ: لَا أَرَى ٱلرَّبَّ. ٱلرَّبَّ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْأَحْيَاءِ. لَا أَنْظُرُ إِنْسَانًا بَعْدُ مَعَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْفَانِيَةِ. | ١١ 11 |
I said, I do not see YAH—YAH! In the land of the living, I do not behold man anymore, With the inhabitants of the world.
| مَسْكِنِي قَدِ ٱنْقَلَعَ وَٱنْتَقَلَ عَنِّي كَخَيْمَةِ ٱلرَّاعِي. لَفَفْتُ كَٱلْحَائِكِ حَيَاتِي. مِنَ ٱلنَّوْلِ يَقْطَعُنِي. ٱلنَّهَارَ وَٱللَّيْلَ تُفْنِينِي. | ١٢ 12 |
My sojourning has departed, And been removed from me as a shepherd’s tent, I have drawn together, as a weaver, my life, By weakness it cuts me off, From day to night You end me.
| صَرَخْتُ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ. كَٱلْأَسَدِ هَكَذَا يُهَشِّمُ جَمِيعَ عِظَامِي. ٱلنَّهَارَ وَٱلَّلَيْلَ تُفْنِينِي. | ١٣ 13 |
I have set [Him] as a lion until morning, So He breaks all my bones, From day to night You end me.
| كَسُنُونةٍ مُزَقْزِقةٍ هَكَذَا أَصِيحُ. أَهْدِرُ كَحَمَامَةٍ. قَدْ ضَعُفَتْ عَيْنَايَ نَاظِرَةً إِلَى ٱلعَلَاءِ. يَارَبُّ، قَدْ تَضَايَقْتُ. كُنْ لِي ضَامِنًا. | ١٤ 14 |
As a crane—a swallow—so I chatter, I mourn as a dove, My eyes have been drawn up on high, O YHWH, oppression [is] on me, be my guarantor.
| بِمَاذَا أَتَكَلَّمُ، فَإِنَّهُ قَالَ لِي وَهُوَ قَدْ فَعَلَ. أَتَمَشَّى مُتَمَهِّلًا كُلَّ سِنِيَّ مِن أَجْلِ مَرَارَةِ نَفْسِي. | ١٥ 15 |
What do I say? Seeing He spoke to me, And He Himself has worked, I go softly all my years for the bitterness of my soul.
| أَيُّهَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ، بِهَذِهِ يَحْيَوْنَ، وَبِهَا كُلُّ حَيَاةِ رُوحِي فَتَشْفِينِي وَتُحْيِينِي. | ١٦ 16 |
Lord, [men] live by these, And by all in them [is] the life of my spirit, And You save me, make me to also live,
| هُوَذَا لِلسَّلَامَةِ قَدْ تَحَوَّلَتْ لِيَ ٱلْمَرَارَةُ، وَأَنْتَ تَعَلَّقْتَ بِنَفْسِي مِنْ وَهْدَةِ ٱلْهَلَاكِ، فَإِنَّكَ طَرَحْتَ وَرَاءَ ظَهْرِكَ كُلَّ خَطَايَايَ. | ١٧ 17 |
Behold, He changed bitterness to peace for me, And You have delighted in my soul without corruption, For You have cast all my sins behind Your back.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلْهَاوِيَةَ لَا تَحْمَدُكَ. ٱلْمَوْتُ لَا يُسَبِّحُكَ. لَا يَرْجُو ٱلْهَابِطُونَ إِلَى ٱلْجُبِّ أَمَانَتَكَ. (Sheol h7585) | ١٨ 18 |
For Sheol does not confess You, Death does not praise You, Those going down to the pit do not hope for Your truth. (Sheol h7585)
| ٱلْحَيُّ ٱلْحَيُّ هُوَ يَحْمَدُكَ كَمَا أَنَا ٱلْيَوْمَ. ٱلْأَبُ يُعَرِّفُ ٱلْبَنِينَ حَقَّكَ. | ١٩ 19 |
The living, the living, he confesses You,
| ٱلرَّبُّ لِخَلَاصِي. فَنَعْزِفُ بِأَوْتَارِنَا كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِنَا فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ». | ٢٠ 20 |
Like myself today; A father makes known to [his] sons of Your faithfulness, O YHWH—to save me: And we sing my songs all [the] days of our lives In the house of YHWH.”
| وَكَانَ إِشَعْيَاءُ قَدْ قَالَ: «لِيَأْخُذُوا قُرْصَ تِينٍ وَيَضْمُدُوهُ عَلَى ٱلدَّبْلِ فَيَبْرَأَ». | ٢١ 21 |
And Isaiah says, “Let them take a bunch of figs, and plaster over the ulcer, and he lives.”
| وَحَزَقِيَّا قَالَ: «مَا هِيَ ٱلْعَلَامَةُ أَنِّي أَصْعَدُ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ؟». | ٢٢ 22 |
And Hezekiah says, “What [is] the sign that I go up to the house of YHWH?”
