< إِشَعْيَاءَ 56 >
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «ٱحْفَظُوا ٱلْحَقَّ وَأَجْرُوا ٱلْعَدْلَ. لِأَنَّهُ قَرِيبٌ مَجِيءُ خَلَاصِي وَٱسْتِعْلَانُ بِرِّي. | ١ 1 |
This is what the LORD says: “Maintain justice and do what is right, for My salvation is coming soon, and My righteousness will be revealed.
طُوبَى لِلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَعْمَلُ هَذَا، وَلِٱبْنِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَتَمَسَّكُ بِهِ، ٱلْحَافِظِ ٱلسَّبْتَ لِئَلَّا يُنَجِّسَهُ، وَٱلْحَافِظِ يَدَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ عَمَلِ شَرٍّ». | ٢ 2 |
Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast, who keeps the Sabbath without profaning it and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
فَلَا يَتَكَلَّمِ ٱبْنُ ٱلْغَرِيبِ ٱلَّذِي ٱقْتَرَنَ بِٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: «إِفْرَازًا أَفْرَزَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ شَعْبِهِ». وَلَا يَقُلِ ٱلْخَصِيُّ: «هَا أَنَا شَجَرَةٌ يَابِسَةٌ». | ٣ 3 |
Let no foreigner who has joined himself to the LORD say, “The LORD will utterly exclude me from His people.” And let the eunuch not say, “I am but a dry tree.”
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلْخِصْيَانِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْفَظُونَ سُبُوتِي، وَيَخْتَارُونَ مَا يَسُرُّنِي، وَيَتَمَسَّكُونَ بِعَهْدِي: | ٤ 4 |
For this is what the LORD says: “To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, who choose what pleases Me and hold fast to My covenant—
«إِنِّي أُعْطِيهِمْ فِي بَيْتِي وَفِي أَسْوَارِي نُصُبًا وَٱسْمًا أَفْضَلَ مِنَ ٱلْبَنِينَ وَٱلْبَنَاتِ. أُعْطِيهِمْ ٱسْمًا أَبَدِيًّا لَا يَنْقَطِعُ. | ٥ 5 |
I will give them, in My house and within My walls, a memorial and a name better than that of sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting name that will not be cut off.
وَأَبْنَاءُ ٱلْغَرِيبِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَقْتَرِنُونَ بِٱلرَّبِّ لِيَخْدِمُوهُ وَلِيُحِبُّوا ٱسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِيَكُونُوا لَهُ عَبِيدًا، كُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْفَظُونَ ٱلسَّبْتَ لِئَلَّا يُنَجِّسُوهُ، وَيَتَمَسَّكُونَ بِعَهْدِي، | ٦ 6 |
And the foreigners who join themselves to the LORD to minister to Him, to love the name of the LORD, and to be His servants— all who keep the Sabbath without profaning it and who hold fast to My covenant—
آتِي بِهِمْ إِلَى جَبَلِ قُدْسِي، وَأُفَرِّحُهُمْ فِي بَيْتِ صَلَاتِي، وَتَكُونُ مُحْرَقَاتُهُمْ وَذَبَائِحُهُمْ مَقْبُولَةً عَلَى مَذْبَحِي، لِأَنَّ بَيْتِي بَيْتَ ٱلصَّلَاةِ يُدْعَى لِكُلِّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ». | ٧ 7 |
I will bring them to My holy mountain and make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on My altar, for My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations.”
يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ جَامِعُ مَنْفِيِّي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «أَجْمَعُ بَعْدُ إِلَيْهِ، إِلَى مَجْمُوعِيهِ». | ٨ 8 |
Thus declares the Lord GOD, who gathers the dispersed of Israel: “I will gather to them still others besides those already gathered.”
يَا جَمِيعَ وُحُوشِ ٱلْبَرِّ تَعَالَيْ لِلْأَكْلِ. يَا جَمِيعَ ٱلْوُحُوشِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْوَعْرِ. | ٩ 9 |
Come, all you beasts of the field; eat greedily, all you beasts of the forest.
مُرَاقِبُوهُ عُمْيٌ كُلُّهُمْ. لَا يَعْرِفُونَ. كُلُّهُمْ كِلَابٌ بُكْمٌ لَا تَقْدِرُ أَنْ تَنْبَحَ. حَالِمُونَ مُضْطَجِعُونَ، مُحِبُّو ٱلنَّوْمِ. | ١٠ 10 |
Israel’s watchmen are blind, they are all oblivious; they are all mute dogs, they cannot bark; they are dreamers lying around, loving to slumber.
وَٱلْكِلَابُ شَرِهَةٌ لَا تَعْرِفُ ٱلشَّبَعَ. وَهُمْ رُعَاةٌ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ ٱلْفَهْمَ. ٱلْتَفَتُوا جَمِيعًا إِلَى طُرُقِهِمْ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى ٱلرِّبْحِ عَنْ أَقْصَى. | ١١ 11 |
Like ravenous dogs, they are never satisfied. They are shepherds with no discernment; they all turn to their own way, each one seeking his own gain:
«هَلُمُّوا آخُذُ خَمْرًا وَلْنَشْتَفَّ مُسْكِرًا، وَيَكُونُ ٱلْغَدُ كَهَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ عَظِيمًا بَلْ أَزْيَدَ جِدًّا». | ١٢ 12 |
“Come, let me get the wine, let us imbibe the strong drink, and tomorrow will be like today, only far better!”
