إِشَعْيَاءَ 56

١ 1 هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «ٱحْفَظُوا ٱلْحَقَّ وَأَجْرُوا ٱلْعَدْلَ. لِأَنَّهُ قَرِيبٌ مَجِيءُ خَلَاصِي وَٱسْتِعْلَانُ بِرِّي.

Thus said YHWH: “Keep judgment, and do righteousness, For My salvation [is] near to come, And My righteousness to be revealed.”

٢ 2 طُوبَى لِلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَعْمَلُ هَذَا، وَلِٱبْنِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَتَمَسَّكُ بِهِ، ٱلْحَافِظِ ٱلسَّبْتَ لِئَلَّا يُنَجِّسَهُ، وَٱلْحَافِظِ يَدَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ عَمَلِ شَرٍّ».

O the blessedness of a man who does this, And of a son of man who keeps hold on it, Keeping the Sabbath from defiling it, And keeping his hand from doing any evil.

٣ 3 فَلَا يَتَكَلَّمِ ٱبْنُ ٱلْغَرِيبِ ٱلَّذِي ٱقْتَرَنَ بِٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: «إِفْرَازًا أَفْرَزَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ شَعْبِهِ». وَلَا يَقُلِ ٱلْخَصِيُّ: «هَا أَنَا شَجَرَةٌ يَابِسَةٌ».

Do not let a son of the stranger speak, Who is joined to YHWH, saying, “YHWH certainly separates me from His people.” Nor let the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dried up tree,”

٤ 4 لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِلْخِصْيَانِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْفَظُونَ سُبُوتِي، وَيَخْتَارُونَ مَا يَسُرُّنِي، وَيَتَمَسَّكُونَ بِعَهْدِي:

For thus said YHWH: “To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, And have fixed on that which I desired, And are keeping hold on My covenant:

٥ 5 «إِنِّي أُعْطِيهِمْ فِي بَيْتِي وَفِي أَسْوَارِي نُصُبًا وَٱسْمًا أَفْضَلَ مِنَ ٱلْبَنِينَ وَٱلْبَنَاتِ. أُعْطِيهِمْ ٱسْمًا أَبَدِيًّا لَا يَنْقَطِعُ.

I have given to them in My house, And within My walls a station and a name, Better than sons and than daughters, I give a continuous name to him That is not cut off.

٦ 6 وَأَبْنَاءُ ٱلْغَرِيبِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَقْتَرِنُونَ بِٱلرَّبِّ لِيَخْدِمُوهُ وَلِيُحِبُّوا ٱسْمَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِيَكُونُوا لَهُ عَبِيدًا، كُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْفَظُونَ ٱلسَّبْتَ لِئَلَّا يُنَجِّسُوهُ، وَيَتَمَسَّكُونَ بِعَهْدِي،

And sons of the stranger, who are joined to YHWH, To serve Him, and to love the Name of YHWH, To be for servants to Him, All keeping from defiling the Sabbath, And those keeping hold on My covenant,

٧ 7 آتِي بِهِمْ إِلَى جَبَلِ قُدْسِي، وَأُفَرِّحُهُمْ فِي بَيْتِ صَلَاتِي، وَتَكُونُ مُحْرَقَاتُهُمْ وَذَبَائِحُهُمْ مَقْبُولَةً عَلَى مَذْبَحِي، لِأَنَّ بَيْتِي بَيْتَ ٱلصَّلَاةِ يُدْعَى لِكُلِّ ٱلشُّعُوبِ».

I have brought them to My holy mountain, And caused them to rejoice in My house of prayer, Their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices [Are] for a pleasing thing on My altar, For My house is called a house of prayer for all the peoples.”

٨ 8 يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ جَامِعُ مَنْفِيِّي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «أَجْمَعُ بَعْدُ إِلَيْهِ، إِلَى مَجْمُوعِيهِ».

A declaration of Lord YHWH, Who is gathering the outcasts of Israel: “Again I gather to him—to his gathered ones.”

٩ 9 يَا جَمِيعَ وُحُوشِ ٱلْبَرِّ تَعَالَيْ لِلْأَكْلِ. يَا جَمِيعَ ٱلْوُحُوشِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْوَعْرِ.

Every beast of the field, Come to devour, every beast in the forest.

١٠ 10 مُرَاقِبُوهُ عُمْيٌ كُلُّهُمْ. لَا يَعْرِفُونَ. كُلُّهُمْ كِلَابٌ بُكْمٌ لَا تَقْدِرُ أَنْ تَنْبَحَ. حَالِمُونَ مُضْطَجِعُونَ، مُحِبُّو ٱلنَّوْمِ.

His watchmen [are] blind—all of them, They have not known, All of them [are] mute dogs, they are not able to bark, Dozing, lying down, loving to slumber.

١١ 11 وَٱلْكِلَابُ شَرِهَةٌ لَا تَعْرِفُ ٱلشَّبَعَ. وَهُمْ رُعَاةٌ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ ٱلْفَهْمَ. ٱلْتَفَتُوا جَمِيعًا إِلَى طُرُقِهِمْ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى ٱلرِّبْحِ عَنْ أَقْصَى.

And the dogs [are] strong of desire, They have not known sufficiency, And they [are] shepherds! They have not known understanding, All of them turned to their own way, Each to his dishonest gain from his quarter:

١٢ 12 «هَلُمُّوا آخُذُ خَمْرًا وَلْنَشْتَفَّ مُسْكِرًا، وَيَكُونُ ٱلْغَدُ كَهَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ عَظِيمًا بَلْ أَزْيَدَ جِدًّا».

“Come, I take wine, And we drink, gulp strong drink, And tomorrow has been as this day, Great—exceedingly abundant!”
