إِشَعْيَاءَ 55

١ 1 «أَيُّهَا ٱلْعِطَاشُ جَمِيعًا هَلُمُّوا إِلَى ٱلْمِيَاهِ، وَٱلَّذِي لَيْسَ لَهُ فِضَّةٌ تَعَالَوْا ٱشْتَرُوا وَكُلُوا. هَلُمُّوا ٱشْتَرُوا بِلَا فِضَّةٍ وَبِلَا ثَمَنٍ خَمْرًا وَلَبَنًا.

Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters; and he that hath no money, come ye, buy, and eat: yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price!

٢ 2 لِمَاذَا تَزِنُونَ فِضَّةً لِغَيْرِ خُبْزٍ، وَتَعَبَكُمْ لِغَيْرِ شَبَعٍ؟ ٱسْتَمِعُوا لِي ٱسْتِمَاعًا وَكُلُوا ٱلطَّيِّبَ، وَلْتَتَلَذَّذْ بِٱلدَّسَمِ أَنْفُسُكُمْ.

Wherefore do ye spend money for [that which is] not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? Hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye [that which is] good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

٣ 3 أَمِيلُوا آذَانَكُمْ وَهَلُمُّوا إِلَيَّ. ٱسْمَعُوا فَتَحْيَا أَنْفُسُكُمْ. وَأَقْطَعَ لَكُمْ عَهْدًا أَبَدِيًّا، مَرَاحِمَ دَاوُدَ ٱلصَّادِقَةَ.

Incline your ear, and come unto me; hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the sure mercies of David.

٤ 4 هُوَذَا قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ شَارِعًا لِلشُّعُوبِ، رَئِيسًا وَمُوصِيًا لِلشُّعُوبِ.

Behold, I have given him [for] a witness to the peoples, a prince and commander to the peoples.

٥ 5 هَا أُمَّةٌ لَا تَعْرِفُهَا تَدْعُوهَا، وَأُمَّةٌ لَمْ تَعْرِفْكَ تَرْكُضُ إِلَيْكَ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ وَقُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ مَجَّدَكَ».

Behold, thou shalt call a nation thou knowest not, and a nation [that] knew not thee shall run unto thee, because of Jehovah thy God, and the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

٦ 6 اُطْلُبُوا ٱلرَّبَّ مَا دَامَ يُوجَدُ. ٱدْعُوهُ وَهُوَ قَرِيبٌ.

Seek ye Jehovah while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near.

٧ 7 لِيَتْرُكِ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ طَرِيقَهُ، وَرَجُلُ ٱلْإِثْمِ أَفْكَارَهُ، وَلْيَتُبْ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فَيَرْحَمَهُ، وَإِلَى إِلَهِنَا لِأَنَّهُ يُكْثِرُ ٱلْغُفْرَانَ.

Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

٨ 8 «لِأَنَّ أَفْكَارِي لَيْسَتْ أَفْكَارَكُمْ، وَلَا طُرُقُكُمْ طُرُقِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith Jehovah.

٩ 9 لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا عَلَتِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، هَكَذَا عَلَتْ طُرُقِي عَنْ طُرُقِكُمْ وَأَفْكَارِي عَنْ أَفْكَارِكُمْ.

For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا يَنْزِلُ ٱلْمَطَرُ وَٱلثَّلْجُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَلَا يَرْجِعَانِ إِلَى هُنَاكَ، بَلْ يُرْوِيَانِ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَيَجْعَلَانِهَا تَلِدُ وَتُنْبِتُ وَتُعْطِي زَرْعًا لِلزَّارِعِ وَخُبْزًا لِلْآكِلِ،

For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

١١ 11 هَكَذَا تَكُونُ كَلِمَتِي ٱلَّتِي تَخْرُجُ مِنْ فَمِي. لَا تَرْجِعُ إِلَيَّ فَارِغَةً، بَلْ تَعْمَلُ مَا سُرِرْتُ بِهِ وَتَنْجَحُ فِي مَا أَرْسَلْتُهَا لَهُ.

so shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall do that which I please, and it shall accomplish that for which I send it.

١٢ 12 لِأَنَّكُمْ بِفَرَحٍ تَخْرُجُونَ وَبِسَلَامٍ تُحْضَرُونَ. ٱلْجِبَالُ وَٱلْآكَامُ تُشِيدُ أَمَامَكُمْ تَرَنُّمًا، وَكُلُّ شَجَرِ ٱلْحَقْلِ تُصَفِّقُ بِٱلْأَيَادِي.

For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.

١٣ 13 عِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلشَّوْكِ يَنْبُتُ سَرْوٌ، وَعِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلْقَرِيسِ يَطْلَعُ آسٌ. وَيَكُونُ لِلرَّبِّ ٱسْمًا، عَلَامَةً أَبَدِيَّةً لَا تَنْقَطِعُ».

Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress, and instead of the nettle shall come up the myrtle; and it shall be to Jehovah for a name, for an everlasting sign [that] shall not be cut off.
