إشَعْياء 40
| يَقُولُ إِلَهُكُمْ: «وَاسُوا، وَاسُوا شَعْبِي! | ١ 1 |
"Comfort, comfort my people," says your God.
| طَيِّبُوا خَاطِرَ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَبَلِّغُوهَا أَنَّ أَيَّامَ مِحْنَتِهَا قَدِ انْتَهَتْ، وَإِثْمَهَا قَدْ غُفِرَ، وَتَلَقَّتْ مِنْ يَدِ الرَّبِّ ضِعْفَيْنِ عَنْ جَمِيعِ مَا ارْتَكَبَتْهُ مِنْ خَطَايَا». | ٢ 2 |
"Speak tenderly to Jerusalem; and call out to her that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received of the LORD's hand double for all her sins."
| صَوْتٌ يَصْرُخُ وَيَقُولُ: «أَعِدُّوا فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ طَرِيقَ الرَّبِّ، وَأَقِيمُوا طَرِيقاً مُسْتَقِيماً لإِلَهِنَا. | ٣ 3 |
The voice of one who calls out in the wilderness, "Prepare the way of the LORD. Make his roads straight.
| كُلُّ وَادٍ يَرْتَفِعُ، وَكُلُّ تَلٍّ يَنْخَفِضُ. وَتُمَهَّدُ كُلُّ أَرْضٍ مُعْوَجَّةٍ وتُعَبَّدُ كُلُّ بُقْعَةٍ وَعِرَةٍ | ٤ 4 |
Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be made low, and the uneven will be made level, and the rough places a plain.
| وَيَتَجَلَّى مَجْدُ اللهِ، فَيُشَاهِدُهُ كُلُّ ذِي جَسَدٍ، لأَنَّ فَمَ الرَّبِّ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ». | ٥ 5 |
And the glory of the LORD will be revealed, and all humanity will see the salvation of God together; for the mouth of the LORD has spoken."
| وَعِنْدَئِذٍ قَالَ صَوْتٌ: «نَادِ بِرِسَالَةٍ». فَأَجَبْتُ: «أَيَّةُ رِسَالَةٍ؟» فَقَالَ: «كُلُّ ذِي جَسَدٍ عُشْبٌ، وَكُلُّ بَهَائِهِ كَزَهْرِ الصَّحْرَاءِ. | ٦ 6 |
The voice of one saying, "Cry." And I said, "What shall I cry?" "All flesh is like grass, and all its glory is like the flower of the field.
| يَذْبُلُ الْعُشْبُ وَيَذْوِي الزَّهْرُ لأَنَّ نَفْخَةَ الرَّبِّ تَهُبُّ عَلَيْهِ. حَقّاً إِنَّ الشَّعْبَ عُشْبٌ. | ٧ 7 |
The grass withers, the flower fades, because the LORD's breath blows on it. Surely the people are like grass.
| يَذْبُلُ الْعُشْبُ وَيَذْوِي الزَّهْرُ، أَمَّا كَلِمَةُ إِلَهِنَا فَتَثْبُتُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ». | ٨ 8 |
The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of the LORD stands forever."
| اصْعَدِي إِلَى جَبَلٍ شَامِخٍ يَا حَامِلَةَ الْبِشَارَةِ إِلَى صِهْيَوْنَ. ارْفَعِي صَوْتَكِ بِقُوَّةٍ يَا مُبَشِّرَةَ أُورُشَلِيمَ. اهْتِفِي وَلا تَجْزَعِي. قُولِي لِمُدُنِ يَهُوذَا: هَا إِلَهُكُمْ قَادِمٌ | ٩ 9 |
You who tell good news to Zion, go up on a high mountain. You who tell good news to Jerusalem, lift up your voice with strength. Lift it up. Do not be afraid. Say to the cities of Judah, "Look, your God."
| بِقُدْرَتِهِ وَقُوَّتِهِ، وَذِرَاعُهُ تَحْكُمُ لَهُ، وَهَا أُجْرَتُهُ مَعَهُ وَمُكَافَأَتُهُ أَمَامَهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
Look, the LORD will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him. Look, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.
| يَرْعَى قَطِيعَهُ كَرَاعٍ، وَيَجْمَعُ الْحُمْلانَ بِذِرَاعِهِ، وَفِي أَحْضَانِهِ يَحْمِلُهَا وَيَقُودُ الْمُرْضِعَاتِ بِرِفْقٍ. | ١١ 11 |
He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom. He will gently lead those who have their young.
| مَنْ كَالَ الْمِيَاهَ بِكَفِّهِ وَقَاسَ السَّمَاوَاتِ بِالشِّبْرِ وَكَالَ تُرَابَ الأَرْضِ بِالْكَيْلِ وَوَزَنَ الْجِبَالَ بِقَبَّانٍ، وَالتِّلالَ بِمِيزَانٍ؟ | ١٢ 12 |
Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and marked off the sky with his span, and calculated the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?
| مَنْ أَرْشَدَ رُوحَ الرَّبِّ أَوْ كَانَ لَهُ مُشِيراً فَعَلَّمَهُ؟ | ١٣ 13 |
Who has known the mind of the LORD, or who has instructed him as his counselor?
| هَلْ طَلَبَ الرَّبُّ مَشُورَةً مِنْ أَحَدٍ؟ مَنْ عَلَّمَهُ طَرِيقَ الْعَدْلِ وَلَقَّنَهُ الْمَعْرِفَةَ وَأَرَاهُ سَبِيلَ الْفَهْمِ؟ | ١٤ 14 |
From whom did he take counsel with, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and showed him the way of understanding? Or who has first given to him, and it will be repaid to him again?
| إِنَّ الشُّعُوبَ كَنُقْطَةٍ مِنْ دَلْوٍ، وَكَغُبَارِ الْمِيزَانِ. يَرْفَعُ الْجَزَائِرَ وَكَأَنَّهَا ذَرَّةُ هَبَاءٍ. | ١٥ 15 |
Look, the nations are like a drop in a bucket, and are regarded as a speck of dust on a balance. Look, he lifts up the islands like a very little thing.
| لُبْنَانُ بِأَسْرِهِ لَا يَكْفِي أَنْ يَكُونَ لِلْوَقُودِ، وَحَيَوَانُهُ لَا يَكْفِي لِذَبِيحَةِ مُحْرَقَةٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, nor its animals sufficient for a burnt offering.
| جَمِيعُ الأُمَمِ لَا تُحْسَبُ لَدَيْهِ شَيْئاً، وَهِي فِي عَيْنَيْهِ عَدَمٌ وَخَوَاءٌ. | ١٧ 17 |
All the nations are like nothing before him. They are regarded by him as less than nothing, and vanity.
| بِمَنْ تُشَبِّهُونَ اللهَ وَبِمَنْ تُقَارِنُونَهُ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
To whom then will you liken God? Or what likeness will you compare to him?
| إِنْ كَانَ تِمْثَالاً فَالتِّمْثَالُ يَصُوغُهُ الصَّانِعُ وَيُغَشِّيهِ الصَّائِغُ بِالذَّهَبِ، وَيَسْبِكُ لَهُ سَلاسِلَ مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ. | ١٩ 19 |
A workman has cast an image, and the goldsmith overlays it with gold, and casts silver chains for it.
| أَمَّا الْفَقِيرُ فَإِنَّهُ يَخْتَارُ قِطْعَةَ خَشَبٍ لَا تُنْخَرُ، وَيَلْتَمِسُ صَانِعاً حَاذِقاً يَنْحَتُ لَهُ مِنْهَا صَنَماً ثَابِتاً. | ٢٠ 20 |
He who is too impoverished for such an offering chooses a tree that will not rot. He seeks a skillful workman to set up an engraved image for him that will not be moved.
| أَلَمْ تَعْلَمُوا؟ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا؟ أَلَمْ يَبْلُغْكُمْ مُنْذُ الْبَدْءِ؟ أَلَمْ تَفْهَمُوا مِنْ إِرْسَاءِ أُسُسِ الأَرْضِ؟ | ٢١ 21 |
Haven't you known? Haven't you heard, yet? Haven't you been told from the beginning? Haven't you understood from the foundations of the earth?
| إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْجَالِسُ عَلَى كُرَةِ الأَرْضِ وَسُكَّانُهَا كَالْجَرَادِ. هُوَ الْبَاسِطُ السَّمَاوَاتِ كَسُرَادَقَ، وَيَنْشُرُهَا كَخَيْمَةٍ لِلسُّكْنَى، | ٢٢ 22 |
It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them out like a tent to dwell in;
| يَجْعَلُ الْعُظَمَاءَ كَالْعَدَمِ، وَالْحُكَّامَ كَلا شَيْءٍ. | ٢٣ 23 |
who brings princes to nothing; who makes the judges of the earth meaningless.
| فَمَا كَادُوا يُغْرَسُونَ وَيُزْرَعُونَ وَيَتَأَصَّلُونَ فِي الأَرْضِ حَتَّى نَفَخَ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَذَوَوْا وَعَصَفَتْ بِهِمْ زَوْبَعَةٌ كَالتِّبْنِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
They are planted scarcely. They are sown scarcely. Their stock has scarcely taken root in the ground. He merely blows on them, and they wither, and the whirlwind takes them away as stubble.
| فَبِمَنْ إِذاً تُقَارِنُونَنِي فَأَكُونَ نَظِيرَهُ؟ يَقُولُ الْقُدُّوسُ. | ٢٥ 25 |
"To whom then will you liken me? Who is my equal?" says the Holy One.
| ارْفَعُوا عُيُونَكُمْ إِلَى الْعَلاءِ وَانْظُرُوا. مَنْ خَلَقَ هَذِهِ؟ وَمَنْ يُبْرِزُ كَوَاكِبَهَا بِمَجْمُوعَاتٍ وَيَدْعُوهَا بِأَسْمَاءَ؟ إِنَّ وَاحِدَةً مِنْهَا لَا تُفْقَدُ لأَنَّهُ يُحَافِظُ عَلَيْهَا بِعَظَمَةِ قُدْرَتِهِ، وَلأَنَّهُ شَدِيدُ الْقُوَّةِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Lift up your eyes on high, and see who has created these, who brings out their host by number. He calls them all by name; by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power, not one is lacking.
| فَكَيْفَ تَجْرُؤُ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ أَنْ تَقُولَ إِنَّ الرَّبَّ لَا يَرَى مِحْنَتِي وَطَرِيقِي خَافِيَةٌ عَلَيْهِ؟ | ٢٧ 27 |
Why do you say, Jacob, and why do you assert, Israel, "My way is hidden from the LORD, and the justice due me is disregarded by my God?"
| أَلَمْ تَعْلَمُوا؟ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا؟ إِنَّ الرَّبَّ هُوَ إِلَهٌ سَرْمَدِيٌّ وَخَالِقُ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ. لَا يَهِنُ وَلا يَخُورُ، وَفَهْمُهُ لَا يُسْتَقْصَى. | ٢٨ 28 |
And now, haven't you known? Haven't you heard? The everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the farthest parts of the earth, doesn't faint. He isn't weary. His understanding is unsearchable.
| يَهِبُ الْمَنْهُوكَ قُوَّةً وَيَمْنَحُ الضَّعِيفَ قُدْرَةً عَظِيمَةً. | ٢٩ 29 |
He gives power to the weak. He increases the strength of him who has no might.
| إِنَّ الشَّبِيبَةَ يَنَالُهَا الإِعْيَاءُ وَالإِرْهَاقُ، وَالْفِتْيَانُ يَتَعَثَّرُونَ أَشَدَّ تَعَثُّرٍ، | ٣٠ 30 |
Even the youths faint and get weary, and the young men utterly fall;
| أَمَّا الرَّاجُونَ الرَّبَّ فَإِنَّهُمْ يُجَدِّدُونَ قُوَّتَهُمْ، وَيُحَلِّقُونَ بِأَجْنِحَةِ النُّسُورِ. يَرْكُضُونَ وَلا يُعْيُونَ. يَمْشُونَ وَلا يَتْعَبُونَ. | ٣١ 31 |
But those who wait for the LORD will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint.
