إشَعْياء 23
| نُبُوءَةٌ بِشَأْنِ صُورَ: وَلْوِلِي يَا سُفُنَ تَرْشِيشَ، لأَنَّ صُورَ قَدْ هُدِمَتْ، فَلَمْ يَبْقَ بَيْتٌ وَلا مَرْفَأٌ. تَمَاماً كَمَا بَلَغَكُمُ النَّبَأُ وَأَنْتُمْ فِي أَرْضِ قُبْرُصَ. | ١ 1 |
THE WORD CONCERNING TYRE. Howl, you ships of Carthage; for she has perished, and [men] no longer arrive from the land of the Citians: she is led captive.
| اصْمُتُوا يَا أَهْلَ السَّاحِلِ، يَا تُجَّارَ صَيْدُونَ، عَابِرِي الْبَحْرِ الَّذِينَ مَلَأْتُمُوهَا، | ٢ 2 |
To whom are the dwellers in the island become like, the merchants of Phoenice, passing over the sea
| فَقَدْ قَدِمَتْ فَوْقَ الْمِيَاهِ الْكَثِيرَةِ سُفُنٌ مُحَمَّلَةٌ بِقَمْحِ شِيحُورَ وَحَصَادِ النِّيلِ، فَصَارَتْ هِيَ مَتْجَرَةَ الأُمَمِ. | ٣ 3 |
in great waters, a generation of merchants? as when the harvest is gathered in, [so are] these traders with the nations.
| فَاخْجَلِي يَا صَيْدَا لأَنَّ الْبَحْرَ وَحِصْنَهُ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَا قَائِلَيْنِ: لَمْ أَتَمَخَّضْ وَلَمْ أَلِدْ، لَمْ أُنْشِئْ شَبَاباً وَلا رَبَّيْتُ عَذَارَى. | ٤ 4 |
Be ashamed, O Sidon: the sea has said, yes, the strength of the sea has said, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, nor have I brought up young men, nor reared virgins.
| عِنْدَمَا يَذِيعُ النَّبَأُ فِي مِصْرَ، يَتَوَجَّعُونَ لأَخْبَارِ صُورَ. | ٥ 5 |
Moreover when it shall be heard in Egypt, sorrow shall seize them for Tyre.
| اعْبُرُوا إِلَى تَرْشِيشَ، انْتَحِبُوا يَا أَهْلَ السَّاحِلِ. | ٦ 6 |
Depart you to Carthage; howl, you that dwell in this island.
| أَهَذِهِ هِيَ مَدِينَتُكُمُ الْمُبْتَهِجَةُ الَّتِي نَشَأَتْ مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ، وَالَّتِي تَنْقُلُهَا قَدَمَاهَا لِلتَغَرُّبِ فِي أَرْضٍ بَعِيدَةٍ؟ | ٧ 7 |
Was not this your pride from the beginning, before she was given up?
| مَنْ قَضَى بِهَذَا عَلَى صُورَ وَاهِبَةِ التِّيجَانِ، الَّتِي تُجَّارُهَا أُمَرَاءُ، وَمُتَكَسِّبُوهَا شُرَفَاءُ الأَرْضِ؟ | ٨ 8 |
Who has devised this counsel against Tyre? Is she inferior? or has she no strength? her merchants were the glorious princes of the earth.
| إِنَّ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ هُوَ الَّذِي قَضَى بِذَلِكَ، لِيَحُطَّ مِنْ كِبْرِيَاءِ كُلِّ مَجْدٍ، وَلِيُذِلَّ كُلَّ شُرَفَاءِ الأَرْضِ. | ٩ 9 |
The Lord of hosts has purposed to bring down all the pride of the glorious ones, and to disgrace every glorious thing on the earth.
| امْخُرِي عُبَابَ الْبَحْرِ يَا ابْنَةَ تَرْشِيشَ كَمَا يَخْتَرِقُ النِّيلُ أَرْضَ مِصْرَ إِذْ زَالَ مَرْفَأُكِ مِنَ الوُجُودِ. | ١٠ 10 |
Till your land; for ships no more come out of Carthage.
| بَسَطَ الرَّبُّ يَدَهُ عَلَى الْبَحْرِ، وَزَعْزَعَ مَمَالِكَ، أَصْدَرَ أَمْرَهُ عَلَى كَنْعَانَ كَيْ تُدَمَّرَ حُصُونُهَا، | ١١ 11 |
And your hand prevails no more by sea, which troubled kings: the Lord of hosts has given a command concerning Chanaan, to destroy the strength thereof.
| وَقَالَ: «لَنْ تَعُودِي تُعَرْبِدِينَ أَيَّتُهَا الْعَذْرَاءُ الَّتِي فَقَدَتْ شَرَفَهَا، يَا ابْنَةَ صَيْدُونَ هُبِّي وَاعْبُرِي إِلَى قُبْرُصَ، وَلَكِنَّكِ لَنْ تَجِدِي هُنَاكَ رَاحَةً». | ١٢ 12 |
And [men] shall say, You shall no longer at all continue to insult and injure the daughter of Sidon: and if you depart to the Citians, neither there shall you have rest.
| تَأَمَّلِي فِي أَرْضِ الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ وَانْظُرِي إِلَى شَعْبِهَا، فَهُمْ وَلَيْسَ الأَشُورِيُّونَ الَّذِينَ سَيَجْعَلُونَ صُورَ مَرْتَعاً لِلْوُحُوشِ، وَسَيَنْصِبُونَ حَوْلَهَا أَبْرَاجَهُمْ، وَيَمْسَحُونَ قُصُورَهَا عَنْ وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ، وَيُحَوِّلُونَهَا إِلَى خَرَابٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
And [if you depart] to the land of the Chaldeans, this also is laid waste by the Assyrians, for her wall is fallen.
| انْتَحِبِي يَا سُفُنَ تَرْشِيشَ لأَنَّ حُصُونَكِ قَدْ تَهَدَّمَتْ. | ١٤ 14 |
Howl, you ships of Carthage: for your strong hold is destroyed.
| وَفِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ تَظَلُّ صُورُ مَنْسِيَّةً طَوَالَ سَبْعِينَ سَنَةً، كَحِقْبَةِ حَيَاةِ مَلِكٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَفِي نِهَايَةِ السَّبْعِينَ سَنَةً يُصِيبُ صُورَ مِثْلُ مَا جَاءَ فِي أُغْنِيَةِ الْعَاهِرَةِ: | ١٥ 15 |
And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] Tyre shall be left seventy years, as the time of a king, as the time of a man: and it shall come to pass after seventy years, [that] Tyre shall be as the song of a harlot.
| «خُذِي عُوداً وَطُوفِي فِي الْمَدِيَنةِ أَيَّتُهَا الْعَاهِرَةُ الْمَنْسِيَّةُ. أَتْقِنِي الْعَزْفَ عَلَى الْعُودِ وَأَكْثِرِي الْغِنَاءَ لَعَلَّكِ تُذْكَرِينَ». | ١٦ 16 |
Take a harp, go about, O city, you harlot that have been forgotten; play well on the harp, sing many [songs], that you may be remembered.
| وَفِى نِهَايَةِ السَّبْعِينَ سَنَةً يَفْتَقِدُ الرَّبُّ صُورَ، فَتَرْجِعُ إِلَى عَهْدِهَا، وَتَزْنِي مَعَ كُلِّ مَمَالِكِ الأَرْضِ. | ١٧ 17 |
And it shall come to pass after the seventy years, [that] God will visit Tyre, and she shall be again restored to her primitive state, and she shall be a mart for all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.
| أَمَّا تِجَارَتُهَا وَأُجْرَتُهَا فَتُصْبِحُ قُدْساً لِلرَّبِّ. لَا تُخْزَنُ وَلا تُدَّخَرُ لأَنَّ تِجَارَتَهَا تُوَفِّرُ غِذَاءً وَفِيراً، وَثِيَاباً فَاخِرَةً لِلسَّاكِنِينَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ. | ١٨ 18 |
And her trade and her gain shall be holiness to the Lord: it shall not be gathered for them, but for those that dwell before the Lord, [even] all her trade, to eat and drink and be filled, and for a covenant [and] a memorial before the Lord.
