إشَعْياء 17
| نُبُوءَةٌ بِشَأْنِ دِمَشْقَ: «انْظُرُوا هَا دِمَشْقُ تَنْقَرِضُ مِنْ بَيْنِ الْمُدُنِ وَتُصْبِحُ كَوْمَةَ أَنْقَاضٍ. | ١ 1 |
The burden of Damascus. “Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it will be a ruinous heap.
| تُهْجَرُ مُدُنُ عَرُوعِيرَ، وَتُصْبِحُ مَرَاعِيَ لِلْقُطْعَانِ، تَرْبِضُ فِيهَا وَلا أَحَدَ يُخِيفُهَا | ٢ 2 |
The cities of Aroer are forsaken. They will be for flocks, which shall lie down, and no one shall make them afraid.
| تَزُولُ الْمَدِينَةُ الْمُحَصَّنَةُ مِنْ أَفْرَايِمَ، وَالْمُلْكُ مِنْ دِمَشْقَ، وَتُصْبِحُ بَقِيَّةُ أَرَامَ مُمَاثِلَةً لِمَجْدِ أَبْنَاءِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الزَّائِلِ، هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ. | ٣ 3 |
The fortress shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria. They will be as the glory of the children of Israel,” says the LORD of Hosts.
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَخْبُو مَجْدُ يَعْقُوبَ وَتَذُوبُ سَمَانَةُ بَدَنِهِ، | ٤ 4 |
“It will happen in that day that the glory of Jacob will be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh will become lean.
| فَتُصْبِحُ جَرْدَاءَ كَحَقْلٍ جَمَعَ الْحَصَّادُونَ زَرْعَهُ، أَوْ حَصَدَتْ ذِرَاعُهُ السَّنَابِلَ، أَوْ كَرَجُلٍ يَلْتَقِطُ السَّنَابِلَ فِي وَادِي رَفَايِمَ. | ٥ 5 |
It will be like when the harvester gathers the wheat, and his arm reaps the grain. Yes, it will be like when one gleans grain in the valley of Rephaim.
| وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ تَبْقَى فِيهِ خُصَاصَةٌ، كَزَيْتُونَةٍ نُفِضَتْ حَبَّاتُهَا، فَتَسَاقَطَتْ إِلّا حَبَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاثاً ظَلَّتْ فِي رَأْسِ أَعْلَى غُصْنٍ، أَوْ أَرْبَعَ أَوْ خَمْسَ حَبَّاتٍ فِي الأَفْنَانِ الْمُثْمِرَةِ، هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ. | ٦ 6 |
Yet gleanings will be left there, like the shaking of an olive tree, two or three olives in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outermost branches of a fruitful tree,” says the LORD, the God of Israel.
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَرْنُو النَّاسُ إِلَى صَانِعِهِمْ وَيَلْتَفِتُونَ بِعُيُونِهِمْ إِلَى قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ٧ 7 |
In that day, people will look to their Maker, and their eyes will have respect for the Holy One of Israel.
| وَلا يَلْتَفِتُونَ إِلَى الْمَذَابِحِ الَّتِي صَنَعَتْهَا أَيْدِيهِمْ، وَلا يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى تَمَاثِيلِ السَّوَارِي وَالشُّمُوسِ، وَلا إِلَى مَذَابِحِ الْبَخُورِ صَنْعَةِ أَصَابِعِهِمْ. | ٨ 8 |
They will not look to the altars, the work of their hands; neither shall they respect that which their fingers have made, either the Asherah poles or the incense altars.
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ تُصْبِحُ مُدُنُهُمُ الْمَنِيعَةُ مُقْفِرَةً كَمُدُنِ الْحِثِّيِّينَ وَالأَمُورِيِّينَ الَّتيِ هَجَرُوهَا هَرَباً مِنَ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ فَأَصْبَحَتْ خَرَاباً. | ٩ 9 |
In that day, their strong cities will be like the forsaken places in the woods and on the mountain top, which were forsaken from before the children of Israel; and it will be a desolation.
| لأَنَّكُمْ قَدْ نَسِيتُمْ إِلَهَ خَلاصِكُمْ، وَلَمْ تَذْكُرُوا صَخْرَةَ عِزِّكُمْ. لِذَلِكَ وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَ غَرْساً مُبْهِجاً وَتَغْرِسُونَ زَرْعاً غَرِيباً، | ١٠ 10 |
For you have forgotten the God of your salvation, and have not remembered the rock of your strength. Therefore you plant pleasant plants, and set out foreign seedlings.
| وَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ يَوْمَ تَغْرِسُونَهُ تُنَمُّونَهُ، وَفِي الصَّبَاحِ عِنْدَمَا تَزْرَعُونَهُ تَجْعَلُونَهُ يُزْهِرُ، فَإِنَّ الْحَصِيدَ لَا يَكُونُ مُنْتِجاً فِي يَوْمِ الضَّرْبَةِ الْمُهْلِكَةِ الَّتِي لَا بُرْءَ مِنْهَا. | ١١ 11 |
In the day of your planting, you hedge it in. In the morning, you make your seed blossom, but the harvest flees away in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
| يَالَجَلَبَةِ شُعُوبٍ كَثِيرَةٍ يَضِجُّونَ كَبَحْرٍ عَجَّاجٍ! يَالَصَخَبِ الأُمَمِ! فَإِنَّهُمْ يَصْخَبُونَ كَعَجِيجِ لُجَجٍ غَامِرَةٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
Ah, the uproar of many peoples who roar like the roaring of the seas; and the rushing of nations that rush like the rushing of mighty waters!
| أُمَمٌ تَهْدِرُ كَهَدِيرِ الْمِيَاهِ، وَلَكِنْ حَالَمَا يَزْجُرُهَا الرَّبُّ تَهْرُبُ بَعِيداً، وَتَتَطَايَرُ كَمَا تَتَطَايَرُ عُصَافَةُ الْجِبَالِ أَمَامَ الرِّيحِ، أَوْ كَالْهَبَاءِ أَمَامَ الْعَاصِفَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
The nations will rush like the rushing of many waters, but he will rebuke them, and they will flee far off, and will be chased like the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like the whirling dust before the storm.
| فِي الْمَسَاءِ يَطْغَى عَلَيْهِمْ رُعْبٌ، وَفِي الصَّبَاحِ يَتَلاشَوْنَ. هَذَا هُوَ نَصِيبُ نَاهِبِينَا وَحَظُّ سَالِبِينَا. | ١٤ 14 |
At evening, behold, terror! Before the morning, they are no more. This is the portion of those who plunder us, and the lot of those who rob us.
