< إِشَعْيَاءَ 6 >
فِي سَنَةِ وَفَاةِ عُزِّيَّا ٱلْمَلِكِ، رَأَيْتُ ٱلسَّيِّدَ جَالِسًا عَلَى كُرْسِيٍّ عَالٍ وَمُرْتَفِعٍ، وَأَذْيَالُهُ تَمْلَأُ ٱلْهَيْكَلَ. | ١ 1 |
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated in majesty on a high throne, and the train of his robe filled the Temple.
ٱلسَّرَافِيمُ وَاقِفُونَ فَوْقَهُ، لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ سِتَّةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ، بِٱثْنَيْنِ يُغَطِّي وَجْهَهُ، وَبِٱثْنَيْنِ يُغَطِّي رِجْلَيْهِ، وَبَٱثْنَيْنِ يَطِيرُ. | ٢ 2 |
Seraphim stood above him, and each of them had six wings: They used two wings to cover their faces, two to cover their feet, and two to fly.
وَهَذَا نَادَى ذَاكَ وَقَالَ: «قُدُّوسٌ، قُدُّوسٌ، قُدُّوسٌ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. مَجْدُهُ مِلْءُ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ٣ 3 |
They were calling out to one another: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; his glory fills the whole earth.
فَٱهْتَزَّتْ أَسَاسَاتُ ٱلْعَتَبِ مِنْ صَوْتِ ٱلصَّارِخِ، وَٱمْتَلَأَ ٱلْبَيْتُ دُخَانًا. | ٤ 4 |
The sound of their shouts made the doorposts and doorsteps shake, and the Temple was filled with smoke.
فَقُلْتُ: «وَيْلٌ لِي! إِنِّي هَلَكْتُ، لِأَنِّي إِنْسَانٌ نَجِسُ ٱلشَّفَتَيْنِ، وَأَنَا سَاكِنٌ بَيْنَ شَعْبٍ نَجِسِ ٱلشَّفَتَيْنِ، لِأَنَّ عَيْنَيَّ قَدْ رَأَتَا ٱلْمَلِكَ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ». | ٥ 5 |
I cried out, “I'm doomed! I'm going to die because I'm a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, for I've seen the King, the Lord Almighty!”
فَطَارَ إِلَيَّ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّرَافِيمِ وَبِيَدِهِ جَمْرَةٌ قَدْ أَخَذَهَا بِمِلْقَطٍ مِنْ عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ، | ٦ 6 |
Then one of the seraphim flew over to me. He was holding a glowing coal that he had picked up with tongs from the altar.
وَمَسَّ بِهَا فَمِي وَقَالَ: «إِنَّ هَذِهِ قَدْ مَسَّتْ شَفَتَيْكَ، فَٱنْتُزِعَ إِثْمُكَ، وَكُفِّرَ عَنْ خَطِيَّتِكَ». | ٧ 7 |
He touched me on my mouth with it and told me, “Look! This has touched your lips, so now your guilt is taken away and your sin is forgiven.”
ثُمَّ سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ ٱلسَّيِّدِ قَائِلًا: «مَنْ أُرْسِلُ؟ وَمَنْ يَذْهَبُ مِنْ أَجْلِنَا؟» فَقُلْتُ: «هَأَنَذَا أَرْسِلْنِي». | ٨ 8 |
Then I heard the Lord asking, “Who shall I send? Who will go and speak for us?” So I said, “I'm here! Please send me!”
فَقَالَ: «ٱذْهَبْ وَقُلْ لِهَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ: ٱسْمَعُوا سَمْعًا وَلَا تَفْهَمُوا، وَأَبْصِرُوا إِبْصَارًا وَلَا تَعْرِفُوا. | ٩ 9 |
He replied, “Go and tell this people: ‘Keep on listening, but never understanding. Keep on seeing, but never comprehending.’
غَلِّظْ قَلْبَ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ وَثَقِّلْ أُذُنَيْهِ وَٱطْمُسْ عَيْنَيْهِ، لِئَلَّا يُبْصِرَ بِعَيْنَيْهِ وَيَسْمَعَ بِأُذُنَيْهِ وَيَفْهَمَ بِقَلْبِهِ، وَيَرْجِعَ فَيُشْفَى». | ١٠ 10 |
Make the minds of this people insensitive; make their ears deaf and shut their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their minds, and repent and be healed.”
فَقُلْتُ: «إِلَى مَتَى أَيُّهَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ؟» فَقَالَ: «إِلَى أَنْ تَصِيرَ ٱلْمُدُنُ خَرِبَةً بِلَا سَاكِنٍ، وَٱلْبُيُوتُ بِلَا إِنْسَانٍ، وَتَخْرَبَ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَتُقْفِرَ، | ١١ 11 |
Then I asked, “How long will this last, Lord?” He replied, “Until towns are ruined and empty, houses are abandoned, and the land is devastated and destroyed;
وَيُبْعِدَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ، وَيَكْثُرَ ٱلْخَرَابُ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٢ 12 |
until the Lord sends the people far away and the country is totally deserted.
وَإِنْ بَقِيَ فِيهَا عُشْرٌ بَعْدُ، فَيَعُودُ وَيَصِيرُ لِلْخَرَابِ، وَلَكِنْ كَٱلْبُطْمَةِ وَٱلْبَلُّوطَةِ، ٱلَّتِي وَإِنْ قُطِعَتْ فَلَهَا سَاقٌ، يَكُونُ سَاقُهُ زَرْعًا مُقَدَّسًا». | ١٣ 13 |
Even though a tenth of the population remains in the land, it will be destroyed again. But in the same way as the terebinth and oak trees leave stumps when they're cut down, so the holy seed will remain as stump.”
