إشَعْياء 22
| نُبُوءَةٌ بِشَأْنِ أُورُشَلِيمَ: مَاذَا حَدَثَ حَتَّى إِنَّكُمْ جَمِيعاً صَعِدْتُمْ إِلَى سُطُوحِ الْمَنَازِلِ؟ | ١ 1 |
A message about the Valley of Vision (Jerusalem). What's happening? Why has everyone gone up onto the rooftops?
| أَيَّتُهَا الْمَدِينَةُ الْمُمْتَلِئَةُ جَلَبَةً، الْعَجَّاجَةُ الْمَرِحَةُ، إِنَّ قَتْلاكِ لَيْسُوا قَتْلَى سَيْفٍ أَوْ صَرْعَى حَرْبٍ. | ٢ 2 |
There are shouts and commotion all over the city with people celebrating. Your dead weren't killed by the sword or in battle.
| قَدْ فَرَّ رُؤَسَاؤُكِ جَمِيعاً. أُسِرُوا مِنْ غَيْرِ مُقَاوَمَةٍ. وَسُبِيَ كُلُّ مَنْ عُثِرَ عَلَيْهِ، مَعَ أَنَّهُمْ هَرَبُوا بَعِيداً. | ٣ 3 |
All your leaders ran away together; they were captured without resistance. All your people trying to escape were captured together, even though they had run a long way away.
| لِذَلِكَ أَقُولُ: «ابْتَعِدُوا عَنِّي لأَبْكِيَ بِمَرَارَةٍ، لَا تَتَكَبَّدُوا جَهْداً فِي تَعْزِيَتِي مِنْ أَجْلِ دَمَارِ ابْنَةِ شَعْبِي». | ٤ 4 |
That's why I said, “Go away! Let me mourn in peace. Don't insist on comforting me as the daughter of my people is ruined.”
| لأَنَّ لِلسَّيِّدِ الرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ يَوْماً يَبُثُّ فِيهِ الرُّعْبَ، وَالذِّلَّةَ، وَالْفَوْضَى. فِيهِ يَنْقُبُ أَهْلُهَا الأَسْوَارَ وَيَسْتَجِيروُنَ بِالْجِبَالِ. | ٥ 5 |
For the Lord has a day of defeat, of panic and confusion in the Valley of Vision, a day of tearing down walls and crying for help to the mountains.
| إِذْ أَنَّ عِيلامَ قَدْ حَمَلَتِ السِّهَامَ وَاجْتَمَعَتْ بِمَرْكَبَاتٍ وَفُرْسَانٍ، وَقِيرَ جَرَّدَتِ الدُّرُوعَ، | ٦ 6 |
The Elamites pick up their quivers full of arrows, and prepare their chariots and horsemen, while the people of Kir uncover their shields ready for battle.
| فَاكْتَظَّتْ خَيْرُ أَوْدِيَتِكِ بِالْمَرْكَبَاتِ، وَاصْطَفَّ الْفُرْسَانُ عِنْدَ الْبَوَّابَاتِ، | ٧ 7 |
Your most productive valleys are now full of enemy chariots; and their cavalry are at your gates!
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ هَتَكَ سِتْرَ يَهُوذَا. فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ تَبْحَثُونَ عَنْ سِلاحِ بَيْتِ الْغَابَةِ، | ٨ 8 |
Judah's defenses have been stripped away and so at that time you went looking for weapons in the Palace of the Forest.
| وَتَجِدُونَ أَنَّ صُدُوعَ مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ، وَتَجْمَعُونَ الْمِيَاهَ مِنَ الْبُحَيْرَةِ السُّفْلَى، | ٩ 9 |
You examined the breaks in the walls of the City of David and found there were many. You had water collect in the lower pool.
| ثُمَّ تَعُدُّونَ بُيُوتَ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَتَهْدِمُونَ بَعْضاً مِنْهَا لِتُحَصِّنُوا السُّورَ. | ١٠ 10 |
Your reviewed the number of houses in the city and demolished some to provide stone to repair the walls.
| وَتَبْنُونَ خَزَّاناً بَيْنَ السُّورَيْنِ لِتَخْزِينِ مَاءِ الْبِرْكَةِ الْقَدِيمَةِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَأَبَهُوا لِبَانِيهَا، أَوْ تَكْتَرِثُوا لِمَنْ صَمَّمَهَا مُنْذُ زَمَنٍ بَعِيدٍ. | ١١ 11 |
You built a reservoir inside the walls for the waters from the old pool, but you did not respect its Maker or think about the One who planned it long ago.
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَدْعُوكُمُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ لِلْبُكَاءِ وَالنَّوْحِ وَحَلْقِ الشَّعْرِ وَالتَّنَطُّقِ بِالْمُسُوحِ. | ١٢ 12 |
At that time the Lord, the Lord Almighty, was calling you to weep and mourn, to shave your heads and wear sackcloth.
| وَلَكِنَّكُمُ انْهَمَكْتُمْ بِالْفَرَحِ وَالسُّرُورِ وَذَبْحِ الثِّيَرانِ وَتَضْحِيَةِ الْغَنَمِ وَأَكْلِ اللَّحْمِ وَشُرْبِ الْخَمْرِ قَائِلِينَ: «لِنَأْكُلْ وَنَشْرَبْ لأَنَّنَا غَداً نَمُوتُ». | ١٣ 13 |
Instead, you go on happily partying! You slaughter cattle and sheep so you can have your feasts, eating meat and drinking wine, saying, “Let's eat and drink, because we're going to die tomorrow!”
| فَقَالَ لِي الْقَدِيرُ: «لَنْ تُغْفَرَ لَكُمْ آثَامُكُمْ حَتَّى تَمُوتُوا». | ١٤ 14 |
The Lord Almighty has made this clear to me: “I will not forgive this sin till your dying day, says the Lord, the Lord Almighty.”
| هَكَذَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: «تَوَجَّهْ إِلَى شَبْنَا رَئِيسِ دِيوَانِ الْقَصْرِ وَقُلْ لَهُ: | ١٥ 15 |
This is what the Lord, the Lord Almighty, told me to do. “Go to Shebna, the palace manager, and give him this message:
| مَالَكَ هُنَا، وَمَنْ لَكَ حَتَّى نَقَرْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ ضَرِيحاً، أَيُّهَا النَّاقِرُ لَهُ قَبْراً فِي الأَعَالِي، وَالنَّاحِتُ لِنَفْسِهِ مَسْكَناً فِي الصَّخْرِ؟ | ١٦ 16 |
‘What are you doing here? Who do you think you are, cutting out a tomb for yourself high up on a hill, carving out for yourself a place to rest?
| هَا الرَّبُّ مُزْمِعٌ أَنْ يَطْرَحَكَ بِعُنْفٍ أَيُّهَا الْجَبَّارُ وَيُمْسِكَكَ بِقُوَّةٍ، | ١٧ 17 |
Watch out, you “great man”! The Lord is about to grab you and violently toss you aside.
| وَيُلَوِّحَ بِكَ تَلْوِيحاً، وَيَقْذِفَكَ كَكُرَةٍ فِي أَرْضٍ وَاسِعَةٍ، فَتَمُوتُ هُنَاكَ، وَهُنَاكَ أَيْضاً تُطْرَحُ مَرْكَبَاتُ مَجْدِكَ يَا عَارَ بَيْتِ سَيِّدِكَ. | ١٨ 18 |
He's going to roll you up into a ball, and throw you far away into a vast country. You will die there, and that's where the chariots you were so proud of will remain. You're a disgrace to your lord's royal family.
| وَأَطْرُدُكَ مِنْ مَنْصِبِكَ فَتُعْزَلُ مِنْ مَقَامِكَ. | ١٩ 19 |
I will push you out of office, I will strip you of your position.
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أَدْعُو عَبْدِي أَلْيَاقِيمَ بنَ حِلْقِيَّا، | ٢٠ 20 |
After that I will call for my servant, Eliakim, son of Hilkiah.
| وَأَخْلَعُ عَلَيْهِ حُلَّتَكَ، وَأَشُدُّهُ بِمِنْطَقَتِكَ، وَأَعْهَدُ بِسُلْطَانِكَ إِلَى يَدِهِ، فَيُصْبِحُ أَباً لِكُلِّ سُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَلِبَيْتِ يَهُوذَا، | ٢١ 21 |
I will put your robe and place your sash around him, and I will give your authority to him. He will be a father to the people living in Jerusalem and Judah.
| وَأُعْطِيهِ السُّلْطَةَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ شَعْبِي، فَمَا يَأْمُرْ بِهِ يُطَعْ. | ٢٢ 22 |
I will give him the key to the house of David. What he opens, nobody can shut; what he shuts, nobody can open.
| وَأُرَسِّخُهُ كَوَتَدٍ فِي مَوْضِعٍ أَمِينٍ، فَيُصْبِحُ عَرْشَ مَجْدٍ لِبَيْتِ أَبِيهِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
I will drive him like a nail hammered securely into a wall. He will bring honor to his family.
| وَيَضَعُونَ عَلَيْهِ كُلَّ مَجْدِ بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ بِفُرُوعِهِ وَأُصُولِهِ، كُلَّ آنِيَةٍ صَغِيرَةٍ مِنْ آنِيَةِ الطُّسُوسِ إِلَى آنِيَةِ القَنَانِيِّ. | ٢٤ 24 |
The heavy burden of his father's family will hang on him—all the descendants and the inlaws—all the little containers, bowls and all kinds of jars.
| وَلَكَنَّ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ يَقُولُ، فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَومِ يُقْتَلَعُ الْوَتَدُ الْمُتَرَسِّخُ بِإِحْكَامٍ مِنْ مَوْضِعِهِ الأَمِينِ وَيُسْتأْصَلُ وَيُطْرَحُ عَلَى الأرْضِ وَيَبِيدُ مَعَهُ كُلُّ الَّذِينَ اتَّكَلُوا عَلَيْهِ». | ٢٥ 25 |
So the time will come, declares the Lord Almighty, when the nail will come out of the wall, even though it was hammered in securely. It will break off and fall down, and everything hanging on it will fall down too. The Lord has spoken.
