إشَعْياء 2

١ 1 الإِعْلانُ الَّذِي رَآهُ إِشَعْيَاءُ بْنُ آمُوصَ بِشَأْنِ يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ:

The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz foresaw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

٢ 2 وَيَحْدُثُ فِي آخِرِ الأَيَّامِ، أَنَّ جَبَلَ هَيْكَلِ الرَّبِّ يُصْبِحُ أَسْمَى مِنْ كُلِّ الْجِبَالِ، وَيَعْلُو فَوْقَ كُلِّ التِّلالِ، فَتَتَوَافَدُ إِلَيْهِ جَمِيعُ الأُمَمِ.

And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be firmly established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and unto it shall flow all the nations.

٣ 3 وَتُقْبِلُ شُعُوبٌ كَثِيرَةٌ وَتَقُولُ: تَعَالَوْا لِنَذْهَبْ إِلَى جَبَلِ الرَّبِّ، إِلَى بَيْتِ إِلَهِ يَعْقُوبَ، فَيُعَلِّمَنَا طُرُقَهُ، وَنَسْلُكَ فِي سُبُلِهِ، لأَنَّ مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ تَخْرُجُ الشَّرِيعَةُ، وَمِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ تُعْلَنُ كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ.

And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; that he may teach us of his ways, and we may walk in his paths; for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord out of Jerusalem.

٤ 4 فَيَقْضِي بَيْنَ الأُمَمِ وَيَحْكُمُ بَيْنَ الشُّعُوبِ الْكَثِيرَةِ، فَيَصْنَعُونَ سُيُوفَهُمْ مَحَارِيثَ وَرِمَاحَهُمْ مَنَاجِلَ، وَلا تَرْفَعُ أُمَّةٌ عَلَى أُمَّةٍ سَيْفاً، وَلا يَتَدَرَّبُونَ عَلَى الْحَرْبِ فِيمَا بَعْدُ.

And he will judge among the nations, and decide for many people; and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-knives: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, and they shall not learn any more war.

٥ 5 يَا بَيْتَ يَعْقُوبَ، هَيَّا لِنَسْلُكْ فِي نُورِ الرَّبِّ.

O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the Lord.

٦ 6 فَأَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ قَدْ نَبَذْتَ شَعْبَكَ، بَيْتَ يَعْقُوبَ، فَكَثُرَ بَيْنَهُمُ الْعَرَّافُونَ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمُتَنَبِّئُونَ، كَالْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، وَتَعَاهَدُوا مَعَ الْغُرَبَاءِ.

For thou hast abandoned thy people, the house of Jacob, because they are full of [witchcraft] more than the east, and are soothsayers like the Philistines, and with the children of strangers they unite themselves.

٧ 7 امْتَلأَتْ أَرْضُهُمْ فِضَّةً وَذَهَباً، وَكُنُوزُهُمْ لَا نِهَايَةَ لَهَا، وَامْتَلأَتْ بِلادُهُمْ بِالْخَيْلِ، وَمَرْكَبَاتُهُمْ لَا تُحْصَى.

And full became their land of silver and gold, and there is no end to their treasures; and full became their land of horses, and there is no end to their chariots;

٨ 8 امْتَلأَتْ أَرْضُهُمْ بِالأَصْنَامِ، وَعَبَدُوا صَنْعَةَ أَيْدِيهِمْ، وَسَجَدُوا لِعَمَلِ أَصَابِعِهِمْ.

And full became their land of idols; to the work of their own hands they bow themselves, to what their own fingers have made.

٩ 9 لِذَلِكَ يَنْحَطُّ الإِنْسَانُ، وَيَذِلُّ الْبَشَرُ، وَلا تَصْفَحُ عَنْهُمْ.

And so is bent down the son of earth, and humbled the man; and thou wilt not forgive them.

١٠ 10 اخْتَفِ فِي مَغَاوِرِ الْجِبَالِ، وَاخْتَبِئْ فِي حُفَرِ الأَرْضِ خَشْيَةً مِنْ هَيْبَةِ الرَّبِّ وَمِنْ جَلالِ مَجْدِهِ.

Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty.

١١ 11 فَعُيُونُ الْبَشَرِ الْمُتَشَامِخَةُ تُخْفَضُ، وَكِبْرِيَاؤُهُمْ تَذِلُّ، وَيَتَعَظَّمُ الرَّبُّ وَحْدَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ.

The looks of human pride shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bent down: and exalted shall be the Lord alone on that day.

١٢ 12 فَإِنَّ لِلرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ يَوْماً فِيهِ يُوْضَعُ كُلُّ مُتَعَظِّمٍ وَمُتَكَبِّرٍ وَمُتَغَطْرِسٍ.

For there is a day [of judgment] unto the Lord of hosts over every proud and lofty one; and over every exalted one, that he be brought low;

١٣ 13 وَيَسْمُو عَلَى أَرْزِ لُبْنَانَ الْمُتَعَالِي الشَّامِخِ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ بَلُّوطِ بَاشَانَ،

And over all the cedars of the Lebanon, the high and exalted, and over all the oaks of Bashan;

١٤ 14 وَعَلَى كُلِّ جَبَلٍ أَشَمَّ، وَعَلَى التِّلالِ الْمُرْتَفِعَةِ،

And over all the high mountains, and over all the exalted hills;

١٥ 15 وَعَلَى كُلِّ بُرْجٍ عَالٍ، وَسُورٍ حَصِينٍ،

And over every high tower, and over every fortified wall;

١٦ 16 وَعَلَى كُلِّ سُفُنِ تَرْشِيشَ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ صَنْعَةٍ جَمِيلَةٍ،

And over all the ships of Tharshish; and over all desirable palaces.

١٧ 17 فَيَعْتَرِي الْهَوَانُ غَطْرَسَةَ كُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ، وَيُذَلُّ تَشَامُخُ الْبَشَرِ، وَيَتَعَظَّمُ الرَّبُّ وَحْدَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ،

And the pride of man shall be bent down, and the haughtiness of men shall be humbled: and exalted shall be the Lord alone on that day.

١٨ 18 وَتُبَادُ الأَصْنَامُ كُلُّهَا،

And the idols will he utterly abolish.

١٩ 19 وَيَلْجَأُ النَّاسُ إِلَى مَغَاوِرِ الْجِبَالِ، وَإِلَى حَفَائِرِ الأَرْضِ، مُتَوَارِينَ مِنْ هَيْبَةِ الرَّبِّ وَمِنْ مَجْدِ جَلالِهِ، عِنْدَمَا يَهُبُّ لِيُزَلْزِلَ الأَرْضَ.

And men shall enter into the caverns of rocks, and into the rifts of the earth, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to terrify the earth.

٢٠ 20 فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَطْرَحُ النَّاسُ لِلْجُرْذَانِ وَالْخَفَافِيشِ أَوْثَانَهُمُ الْفِضِّيَّةَ وَأَصْنَامَهُمُ الذَّهَبِيَّةَ الَّتِي صَنَعُوهَا لِيَعْبُدُوهَا،

On that day shall a man cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which have been made for him to worship, to the moles and to the bats;

٢١ 21 وَيَدْخُلُونَ فِي كُهُوفِ الصَّخْرِ، وَفِي شُقُوقِ الْجُرُوفِ الْجَبَلِيَّةِ هَرَباً مِنْ هَيْبَةِ الرَّبِّ وَمِنْ مَجْدِ جَلالِهِ عِنْدَمَا يَهُبُّ لِيُزَلْزِلَ الأَرْضَ.

To enter into the clefts of the rocks, and into the hollows of the cliffs, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to terrify the earth.

٢٢ 22 كُفُّوا عَنِ الاتِّكَالِ عَلَى الإِنْسَانِ الْمُعَرَّضِ لِلْمَوْتِ؛ فَأَيُّ قِيمَةٍ لَهُ؟

Withdraw yourselves [then] from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; because, for what is he to be esteemed?
