إِشَعْيَاءَ 63

١ 1 مَنْ ذَا ٱلْآتِي مِنْ أَدُومَ، بِثِيَابٍ حُمْرٍ مِنْ بُصْرَةَ؟ هَذَا ٱلْبَهِيُّ بِمَلَابِسِهِ، ٱلْمُتَعَظِّمُ بِكَثْرَةِ قُوَّتِهِ. «أَنَا ٱلْمُتَكَلِّمُ بِٱلْبِرِّ، ٱلْعَظِيمُ لِلْخَلَاصِ».

Who is this that is come from Edom, [with] red garments from Bosor? thus fair in his apparel, with mighty strength? I speak of righteousness and saving judgement.

٢ 2 مَا بَالُ لِبَاسِكَ مُحَمَّرٌ، وَثِيَابُكَ كَدَائِسِ ٱلْمِعْصَرَةِ؟

Therefore are your garments red, and your raiment as [if fresh] from a trodden winepress?

٣ 3 «قَدْ دُسْتُ ٱلْمِعْصَرَةَ وَحْدِي، وَمِنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ لَمْ يَكُنْ مَعِي أَحَدٌ. فَدُسْتُهُمْ بِغَضَبِي، وَوَطِئْتُهُمْ بِغَيْظِي. فَرُشَّ عَصِيرُهُمْ عَلَى ثِيَابِي، فَلَطَخْتُ كُلَّ مَلَابِسِي.

I am full of trodden [grape], and of the nations there is not a man with me; and I trampled them in my fury, and dashed them to pieces as earth, and brought down their blood to the earth.

٤ 4 لِأَنَّ يَوْمَ ٱلنَّقْمَةِ فِي قَلْبِي، وَسَنَةَ مَفْدِيِّيَّ قَدْ أَتَتْ.

For the day of recompence has come upon them, and the year of redemption is at hand.

٥ 5 فَنَظَرْتُ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مُعِينٌ، وَتَحَيَّرْتُ إِذْ لَمْ يَكُنْ عَاضِدٌ، فَخَلَّصَتْ لِي ذِرَاعِي، وَغَيْظِي عَضَدَنِي.

And I looked, and there was no helper; and I observed, and none upheld: therefore my arm delivered them, and mine anger drew near.

٦ 6 فَدُسْتُ شُعُوبًا بِغَضَبِي وَأَسْكَرْتُهُمْ بِغَيْظِي، وَأَجْرَيْتُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ عَصِيرَهُمْ».

And I trampled them in mine anger, and brought down their blood to the earth.

٧ 7 إِحْسَانَاتِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَذْكُرُ، تَسَابِيحَ ٱلرَّبِّ، حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا كَافَأَنَا بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَٱلْخَيْرَ ٱلْعَظِيمَ لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي كَافَأَهُمْ بِهِ حَسَبَ مَرَاحِمِهِ، وَحَسَبَ كَثْرَةِ إِحْسَانَاتِهِ.

I remembered the mercy of the Lord, the praises of the Lord in all things wherein he recompenses us. The Lord is a good judge to the house of Israel; he deals with us according to his mercy, and according to the abundance of his righteousness.

٨ 8 وَقَدْ قَالَ حَقًّا: «إِنَّهُمْ شَعْبِي، بَنُونَ لَا يَخُونُونَ». فَصَارَ لَهُمْ مُخَلِّصًا.

And he said, Is it not my people? the children surely will not be rebellious: and he became to them deliverance

٩ 9 فِي كُلِّ ضِيقِهِمْ تَضَايَقَ، وَمَلَاكُ حَضْرَتِهِ خَلَّصَهُمْ. بِمَحَبَّتِهِ وَرَأْفَتِهِ هُوَ فَكَّهُمْ وَرَفَعَهُمْ وَحَمَلَهُمْ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلْقَدِيمَةِ.

out of all their affliction: not an ambassador, nor a messenger, but himself saved them, because he loved them and spared them: he himself redeemed them, and took them up, and lifted them up all the days of old.

١٠ 10 وَلَكِنَّهُمْ تَمَرَّدُوا وَأَحْزَنُوا رُوحَ قُدْسِهِ، فَتَحَوَّلَ لَهُمْ عَدُوًّا، وَهُوَ حَارَبَهُمْ.

But they disobeyed, and provoked his Holy Spirit: so he turned to be an enemy, he himself contended against them.

١١ 11 ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ ٱلْأَيَّامَ ٱلْقَدِيمَةَ، مُوسَى وَشَعْبَهُ: «أَيْنَ ٱلَّذِي أَصْعَدَهُمْ مِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ مَعَ رَاعِي غَنَمِهِ؟ أَيْنَ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي وَسَطِهِمْ رُوحَ قُدْسِهِ،

Then he remembered the ancient days, [saying], Where is he that brought up from the sea the shepherd of the sheep? where is he that put his Holy Spirit in them?

١٢ 12 ٱلَّذِي سَيَّرَ لِيَمِينِ مُوسَى ذِرَاعَ مَجْدِهِ، ٱلَّذِي شَقَّ ٱلْمِيَاهَ قُدَّامَهُمْ لِيَصْنَعَ لِنَفْسِهِ ٱسْمًا أَبَدِيًّا،

who led Moses with his right hand, the arm of his glory? he forced the water [to separate] from before him, to make himself an everlasting name.

١٣ 13 ٱلَّذِي سَيَّرَهُمْ فِي ٱللُّجَجِ، كَفَرَسٍ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ فَلَمْ يَعْثُرُوا؟

He led them through the deep, as a horse through the wilderness, and they fainted not,

١٤ 14 كَبَهَائِمَ تَنْزِلُ إِلَى وَطَاءٍ، رُوحُ ٱلرَّبِّ أَرَاحَهُمْ». هَكَذَا قُدْتَ شَعْبَكَ لِتَصْنَعَ لِنَفْسِكَ ٱسْمَ مَجْدٍ.

and as cattle through a plain: the Spirit came down from the Lord, and guided them: thus you led your people, to make yourself a glorious name.

١٥ 15 تَطَلَّعْ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَٱنْظُرْ مِنْ مَسْكَنِ قُدْسِكَ وَمَجْدِكَ: أَيْنَ غَيْرَتُكَ وَجَبَرُوتُكَ؟ زَفِيرُ أَحْشَائِكَ وَمَرَاحِمُكَ نَحْوِي ٱمْتَنَعَتْ.

Turn from heaven, and look from your holy habitation and [from] your glory: where is your zeal and your strength? where is the abundance of your mercy and of your compassions, that you have withholden yourself from us?

١٦ 16 فَإِنَّكَ أَنْتَ أَبُونَا وَإِنْ لَمْ يَعْرِفْنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَدْرِنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ. أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ أَبُونَا، وَلِيُّنَا مُنْذُ ٱلْأَبَدِ ٱسْمُكَ.

For you are our Father; for [though] Abraham knew us not, and Israel did not acknowledge us, yet do you, O Lord, our Father, deliver us: your name has been upon us from the beginning.

١٧ 17 لِمَاذَا أَضْلَلْتَنَا يَارَبُّ عَنْ طُرُقِكَ، قَسَّيْتَ قُلُوبَنَا عَنْ مَخَافَتِكَ؟ ٱرْجِعْ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَبِيدِكَ، أَسْبَاطِ مِيرَاثِكَ.

Why have you caused us to err, O Lord, from your way? [and] has hardened our hearts, that we should not fear you? Return for your servants' sake, for the sake of the tribes of your inheritance,

١٨ 18 إِلَى قَلِيلٍ ٱمْتَلَكَ شَعْبُ قُدْسِكَ. مُضَايِقُونَا دَاسُوا مَقْدِسَكَ.

that we may inherit a small part of your holy mountain.

١٩ 19 قَدْ كُنَّا مُنْذُ زَمَانٍ كَٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ تَحْكُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَلَمْ يُدْعَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِٱسْمِكَ.

We are become as at the beginning, when you did not rule over us, and your name was not called upon us.
