إِشَعْيَاءَ 46

١ 1 قَدْ جَثَا بِيلُ، ٱنْحَنَى نَبُو. صَارَتْ تَمَاثِيلُهُمَا عَلَى ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمِ. مَحْمُولَاتُكُمْ مُحَمَّلَةٌ حِمْلًا لِلْمُعْيِي.

Bel bows down, Nebo stoops, their idols are upon the beasts, and upon the cattle. The things that ye carried about are made a load, a burden to the weary beast.

٢ 2 قَدِ ٱنْحَنَتْ. جَثَتْ مَعًا. لَمْ تَقْدِرْ أَنْ تُنَجِّيَ ٱلْحِمْلَ، وَهِيَ نَفْسُهَا قَدْ مَضَتْ فِي ٱلسَّبْيِ.

They stoop, they bow down together. They could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity.

٣ 3 «اِسْمَعُوا لِي يَا بَيْتَ يَعْقُوبَ وَكُلَّ بَقِيَّةِ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلْمُحَمَّلِينَ عَلَيَّ مِنَ ٱلْبَطْنِ، ٱلْمَحْمُولِينَ مِنَ ٱلرَّحِمِ.

Hearken to me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, who have been borne by me from their birth, who have been carried from the womb.

٤ 4 وَإِلَى ٱلشَّيْخُوخَةِ أَنَا هُوَ، وَإِلَى ٱلشَّيْبَةِ أَنَا أَحْمِلُ. قَدْ فَعَلْتُ، وَأَنَا أَرْفَعُ، وَأَنَا أَحْمِلُ وَأُنَجِّي.

And even to old age I am he, and even to hoar hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear, yea, I will carry, and will deliver.

٥ 5 بِمَنْ تُشَبِّهُونَنِي وَتُسَوُّونَنِي وَتُمَثِّلُونَنِي لِنَتَشَابَهَ؟.

To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be alike?

٦ 6 «اَلَّذِينَ يُفْرِغُونَ ٱلذَّهَبَ مِنَ ٱلْكِيسِ، وَٱلْفِضَّةَ بِٱلْمِيزَانِ يَزِنُونَ. يَسْتَأْجِرُونَ صَائِغًا لِيَصْنَعَهَا إِلَهًا، يَخُرُّونَ وَيَسْجُدُونَ!

Such as lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, they hire a goldsmith, and he makes it a god. They fall down, yea, they worship.

٧ 7 يَرْفَعُونَهُ عَلَى ٱلْكَتِفِ. يَحْمِلُونَهُ وَيَضَعُونَهُ فِي مَكَانِهِ لِيَقِفَ. مِنْ مَوْضِعِهِ لَا يَبْرَحُ. يَزْعَقُ أَحَدٌ إِلَيْهِ فَلَا يُجِيبُ. مِنْ شِدَّتِهِ لَا يُخَلِّصُهُ.

They bear it upon the shoulder. They carry it, and set it in its place, and it stands. From its place it shall not remove. Yea, he may cry to it, yet it cannot answer, nor save him out of his trouble.

٨ 8 «اُذْكُرُوا هَذَا وَكُونُوا رِجَالًا. رَدِّدُوهُ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْعُصَاةُ.

Remember this, and show yourselves men. Bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors.

٩ 9 اُذْكُرُوا ٱلْأَوَّلِيَّاتِ مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ، لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱللهُ وَلَيْسَ آخَرُ. ٱلْإِلَهُ وَلَيْسَ مِثْلِي.

Remember the former things of old, for I am God, and there is none else. I am God, and there is none like me,

١٠ 10 مُخْبِرٌ مُنْذُ ٱلْبَدْءِ بِٱلْأَخِيرِ، وَمُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ بِمَا لَمْ يُفْعَلْ، قَائِلًا: رَأْيِي يَقُومُ وَأَفْعَلُ كُلَّ مَسَرَّتِي.

declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure,

١١ 11 دَاعٍ مِنَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ ٱلْكَاسِرَ، مِنْ أَرْضٍ بَعِيدَةٍ رَجُلَ مَشُورَتِي. قَدْ تَكَلَّمْتُ فَأُجْرِيهِ. قَضَيْتُ فَأَفْعَلُهُ.

calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country. Yea, I have spoken. I will also bring it to pass. I have purposed. I will also do it.

١٢ 12 «اِسْمَعُوا لِي يَا أَشِدَّاءَ ٱلْقُلُوبِ ٱلْبَعِيدِينَ عَنِ ٱلْبِرِّ.

Hearken to me, ye stout-hearted, who are far from righteousness:

١٣ 13 قَدْ قَرَّبْتُ بِرِّي، لَا يَبْعُدُ. وَخَلَاصِي لَا يَتَأَخَّرُ. وَأَجْعَلُ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ خَلَاصًا، لِإِسْرَائِيلَ جَلَالِي.

I bring near my righteousness. It shall not be far off. And my salvation shall not tarry, and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
