إِشَعْيَاءَ 9
| وَلَكِنْ لَا يَكُونُ ظَلَامٌ لِلَّتِي عَلَيْهَا ضِيقٌ. كَمَا أَهَانَ ٱلزَّمَانُ ٱلْأَوَّلُ أَرْضَ زَبُولُونَ وَأَرْضَ نَفْتَالِي، يُكْرِمُ ٱلْأَخِيرُ طَرِيقَ ٱلْبَحْرِ، عَبْرَ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ، جَلِيلَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. | ١ 1 |
In earlier times he made the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali of small value, but after that he gave it glory, by the way of the sea, on the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
| اَلشَّعْبُ ٱلسَّالِكُ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ أَبْصَرَ نُورًا عَظِيمًا. ٱلْجَالِسُونَ فِي أَرْضِ ظِلَالِ ٱلْمَوْتِ أَشْرَقَ عَلَيْهِمْ نُورٌ. | ٢ 2 |
The people who went in the dark have seen a great light, and for those who were living in the land of the deepest night, the light is shining.
| أَكْثَرْتَ ٱلْأُمَّةَ. عَظَّمْتَ لَهَا ٱلْفَرَحَ. يَفْرَحُونَ أَمَامَكَ كَٱلْفَرَحِ فِي ٱلْحَصَادِ. كَٱلَّذِينَ يَبْتَهِجُونَ عِنْدَمَا يَقْتَسِمُونَ غَنِيمَةً. | ٣ 3 |
You have made them very glad, increasing their joy. They are glad before you as men are glad in the time of getting in the grain, or when they make division of the goods taken in war.
| لِأَنَّ نِيرَ ثِقْلِهِ، وَعَصَا كَتِفِهِ، وَقَضِيبَ مُسَخِّرِهِ كَسَّرْتَهُنَّ كَمَا فِي يَوْمِ مِدْيَانَ. | ٤ 4 |
For by your hand the yoke on his neck and the rod on his back, even the rod of his cruel master, have been broken, as in the day of Midian.
| لِأَنَّ كُلَّ سِلَاحِ ٱلْمُتَسَلِّحِ فِي ٱلْوَغَى وَكُلَّ رِدَاءٍ مُدَحْرَجٍ فِي ٱلدِّمَاءِ، يَكُونُ لِلْحَرِيقِ، مَأْكَلًا لِلنَّارِ. | ٥ 5 |
For every boot of the man of war with his sounding step, and the clothing rolled in blood, will be for burning, food for the fire.
| لِأَنَّهُ يُولَدُ لَنَا وَلَدٌ وَنُعْطَى ٱبْنًا، وَتَكُونُ ٱلرِّيَاسَةُ عَلَى كَتِفِهِ، وَيُدْعَى ٱسْمُهُ عَجِيبًا، مُشِيرًا، إِلَهًا قَدِيرًا، أَبًا أَبَدِيًّا، رَئِيسَ ٱلسَّلَامِ. | ٦ 6 |
For to us a child has come, to us a son is given; and the government has been placed in his hands; and he has been named Wise Guide, Strong God, Father for ever, Prince of Peace.
| لِنُمُوِّ رِيَاسَتِهِ، وَلِلسَّلَامِ لَا نِهَايَةَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ دَاوُدَ وَعَلَى مَمْلَكَتِهِ، لِيُثَبِّتَهَا وَيَعْضُدَهَا بِٱلْحَقِّ وَٱلْبِرِّ، مِنَ ٱلْآنَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. غَيْرَةُ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ تَصْنَعُ هَذَا. | ٧ 7 |
Of the increase of his rule and of peace there will be no end, on the seat of David, and in his kingdom; to make it strong, supporting it with wise decision and righteousness, now and for ever. By the fixed purpose of the Lord of armies this will be done.
| أَرْسَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ قَوْلًا فِي يَعْقُوبَ فَوَقَعَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٨ 8 |
The Lord has sent a word to Jacob, and it has come on Israel;
| فَيَعْرِفُ ٱلشَّعْبُ كُلُّهُ، أَفْرَايِمُ وَسُكَّانُ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، ٱلْقَائِلُونَ بِكِبْرِيَاءَ وَبِعَظَمَةِ قَلْبٍ: | ٩ 9 |
And all the people will have experience of it, even Ephraim and the men of Samaria, who say in the pride of their uplifted hearts,
| «قَدْ هَبَطَ ٱللِّبْنُ فَنَبْنِي بِحِجَارَةٍ مَنْحُوتَةٍ. قُطِعَ ٱلْجُمَّيْزُ فَنَسْتَخْلِفُهُ بِأَرْزٍ». | ١٠ 10 |
The bricks have come down, but we will put up buildings of cut stone in their place: the sycamores are cut down, but they will be changed to cedars.
| فَيَرْفَعُ ٱلرَّبُّ أَخْصَامَ رَصِينَ عَلَيْهِ وَيُهَيِّجُ أَعْدَاءَهُ: | ١١ 11 |
For this cause the Lord has made strong the haters of Israel, driving them on to make war against him;
| ٱلْأَرَامِيِّينَ مِنْ قُدَّامُ وَٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مِنْ وَرَاءُ، فَيَأْكُلُونَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِكُلِّ ٱلْفَمِ. مَعَ كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ، بَلْ يَدُهُ مَمْدُودَةٌ بَعْدُ! | ١٢ 12 |
Aram on the east, and the Philistines on the west, who have come against Israel with open mouths. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
| وَٱلشَّعْبُ لَمْ يَرْجِعْ إِلَى ضَارِبِهِ وَلَمْ يَطْلُبْ رَبَّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. | ١٣ 13 |
But the heart of the people was not turned to him who sent punishment on them, and they made no prayer to the Lord of armies.
| فَيَقْطَعُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلرَّأْسَ وَٱلذَّنَبَ، ٱلنَّخْلَ وَٱلْأَسَلَ، فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
For this cause the Lord took away from Israel head and tail, high and low, in one day.
| اَلشَّيْخُ وَٱلْمُعْتَبَرُ هُوَ ٱلرَّأْسُ، وَٱلنَّبِيُّ ٱلَّذِي يُعَلِّمُ بِٱلْكَذِبِ هُوَ ٱلذَّنَبُ. | ١٥ 15 |
The man who is honoured and responsible is the head, and the prophet who gives false teaching is the tail.
| وَصَارَ مُرْشِدُو هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ مُضِلِّينَ، وَمُرْشَدُوهُ مُبْتَلَعِينَ. | ١٦ 16 |
For the guides of this people are the cause of their wandering from the right way, and those who are guided by them come to destruction.
| لِأَجْلِ ذَلِكَ لَا يَفْرَحُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ بِفِتْيَانِهِ، وَلَا يَرْحَمُ يَتَامَاهُ وَأَرَامِلَهُ، لِأَنَّ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ مُنَافِقٌ وَفَاعِلُ شَرٍّ. وَكُلُّ فَمٍ مُتَكَلِّمٌ بِٱلْحَمَاقَةِ. مَعَ كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ، بَلْ يَدُهُ مَمْدُودَةٌ بَعْدُ! | ١٧ 17 |
For this cause the Lord will have no pleasure in their young men, and no pity on their widows and the children without fathers: for they are all haters of God and evil-doers, and foolish words come from every mouth. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
| لِأَنَّ ٱلْفُجُورَ يُحْرِقُ كَٱلنَّارِ، تَأْكُلُ ٱلشَّوْكَ وَٱلْحَسَكَ، وَتُشْعِلُ غَابَ ٱلْوَعْرِ فَتَلْتَفُّ عَمُودَ دُخَانٍ. | ١٨ 18 |
For evil was burning like a fire; the blackberries and thorns were burned up; the thick woods took fire, rolling up in dark clouds of smoke.
| بِسَخَطِ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ تُحْرَقُ ٱلْأَرْضُ، وَيَكُونُ ٱلشَّعْبُ كَمَأْكَلٍ لِلنَّارِ. لَا يُشْفِقُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ عَلَى أَخِيهِ. | ١٩ 19 |
The land was dark with the wrath of the Lord of armies: the people were like those who take men's flesh for food.
| يَلْتَهِمُ عَلَى ٱلْيَمِينِ فَيَجُوعُ، وَيَأْكُلُ عَلَى ٱلشَّمَالِ فَلَا يَشْبَعُ. يَأْكُلُونَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ لَحْمَ ذِرَاعِهِ: | ٢٠ 20 |
On the right a man was cutting off bits and was still in need; on the left a man took a meal but had not enough; no man had pity on his brother; every man was making a meal of the flesh of his neighbour.
| مَنَسَّى أَفْرَايِمَ، وَأَفْرَايِمُ مَنَسَّى، وَهُمَا مَعًا عَلَى يَهُوذَا. مَعَ كُلِّ هَذَا لَمْ يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ، بَلْ يَدُهُ مَمْدُودَةٌ بَعْدُ! | ٢١ 21 |
Manasseh was making a meal of Ephraim, and Ephraim of Manasseh; and together they were attacking Judah. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
