إِشَعْيَاءَ 54

١ 1 «تَرَنَّمِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْعَاقِرُ ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَلِدْ. أَشِيدِي بِٱلتَّرَنُّمِ أَيَّتُهَا ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَمْخَضْ، لِأَنَّ بَنِي ٱلْمُسْتَوْحِشَةِ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ بَنِي ذَاتِ ٱلْبَعْلِ، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith Yhwh.

٢ 2 أَوْسِعِي مَكَانَ خَيْمَتِكِ، وَلْتُبْسَطْ شُقَقُ مَسَاكِنِكِ. لَا تُمْسِكِي. أَطِيلِي أَطْنَابَكِ وَشَدِّدِي أَوْتَادَكِ،

Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

٣ 3 لِأَنَّكِ تَمْتَدِّينَ إِلَى ٱلْيَمِينِ وَإِلَى ٱلْيَسَارِ، وَيَرِثُ نَسْلُكِ أُمَمًا، وَيُعْمِرُ مُدُنًا خَرِبَةً.

For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

٤ 4 لَا تَخَافِي لِأَنَّكِ لَا تَخْزَيْنَ، وَلَا تَخْجَلِي لِأَنَّكِ لَا تَسْتَحِينَ. فَإِنَّكِ تَنْسَيْنَ خِزْيَ صَبَاكِ، وَعَارُ تَرَمُّلِكِ لَا تَذْكُرِينَهُ بَعْدُ.

Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.

٥ 5 لِأَنَّ بَعْلَكِ هُوَ صَانِعُكِ، رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ ٱسْمُهُ، وَوَلِيُّكِ قُدُّوسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِلَهَ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ يُدْعَى.

For thy Maker is thine husband; Yhwh of Armies is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.

٦ 6 لِأَنَّهُ كَٱمْرَأَةٍ مَهْجُورَةٍ وَمَحْزُونَةِ ٱلرُّوحِ دَعَاكِ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَكَزَوْجَةِ ٱلصِّبَا إِذَا رُذِلَتْ، قَالَ إِلَهُكِ.

For Yhwh hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.

٧ 7 لُحَيْظَةً تَرَكْتُكِ، وَبِمَرَاحِمَ عَظِيمَةٍ سَأَجْمَعُكِ.

For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.

٨ 8 بِفَيَضَانِ ٱلْغَضَبِ حَجَبْتُ وَجْهِي عَنْكِ لَحْظَةً، وَبِإِحْسَانٍ أَبَدِيٍّ أَرْحَمُكِ، قَالَ وَلِيُّكِ ٱلرَّبُّ.

In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith Yhwh thy Redeemer.

٩ 9 لِأَنَّهُ كَمِيَاهِ نُوحٍ هَذِهِ لِي. كَمَا حَلَفْتُ أَنْ لَا تَعْبُرَ بَعْدُ مِيَاهُ نُوحٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، هَكَذَا حَلَفْتُ أَنْ لَا أَغْضَبَ عَلَيْكِ وَلَا أَزْجُرَكِ.

For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.

١٠ 10 فَإِنَّ ٱلْجِبَالَ تَزُولُ، وَٱلْآكَامَ تَتَزَعْزَعُ، أَمَّا إِحْسَانِي فَلَا يَزُولُ عَنْكِ، وَعَهْدُ سَلَامِي لَا يَتَزَعْزَعُ، قَالَ رَاحِمُكِ ٱلرَّبُّ.

For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith Yhwh that hath mercy on thee.

١١ 11 «أَيَّتُهَا ٱلذَّلِيلَةُ ٱلْمُضْطَرِبَةُ غَيْرُ ٱلْمُتَعَزِّيَةِ، هَأَنَذَا أَبْنِي بِٱلْأُثْمُدِ حِجَارَتَكِ، وَبِٱلْيَاقُوتِ ٱلْأَزْرَقِ أُؤَسِّسُكِ،

O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.

١٢ 12 وَأَجْعَلُ شُرَفَكِ يَاقُوتًا، وَأَبْوَابَكِ حِجَارَةً بَهْرَمَانِيَّةً، وَكُلَّ تُخُومِكِ حِجَارَةً كَرِيمَةً

And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.

١٣ 13 وَكُلَّ بَنِيكِ تَلَامِيذَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَسَلَامَ بَنِيكِ كَثِيرًا.

And all thy children shall be taught of Yhwh; and great shall be the peace of thy children.

١٤ 14 بِٱلْبِرِّ تُثَبَّتِينَ بَعِيدَةً عَنِ ٱلظُّلْمِ فَلَا تَخَافِينَ، وَعَنِ ٱلِٱرْتِعَابِ فَلَا يَدْنُو مِنْكِ.

In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.

١٥ 15 هَا إِنَّهُمْ يَجْتَمِعُونَ ٱجْتِمَاعًا لَيْسَ مِنْ عِنْدِي. مَنِ ٱجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْكِ فَإِلَيْكِ يَسْقُطُ.

Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.

١٦ 16 هَأَنَذَا قَدْ خَلَقْتُ ٱلْحَدَّادَ ٱلَّذِي يَنْفُخُ ٱلْفَحْمَ فِي ٱلنَّارِ وَيُخْرِجُ آلَةً لِعَمَلِهِ، وَأَنَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْمُهْلِكَ لِيَخْرِبَ.

Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.

١٧ 17 «كُلُّ آلَةٍ صُوِّرَتْ ضِدَّكِ لَا تَنْجَحُ، وَكُلُّ لِسَانٍ يَقُومُ عَلَيْكِ فِي ٱلْقَضَاءِ تَحْكُمِينَ عَلَيْهِ. هَذَا هُوَ مِيرَاثُ عَبِيدِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَبِرُّهُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of Yhwh, and their righteousness is of me, saith Yhwh.
