إشَعْياء 41
| اصْمُتِي وَاسْمَعِي لِي أَيَّتُهَا الْجَزَائِرُ. لِتُجَدِّدِ الأُمَمُ قُوَّتَهَا وَلْيَتَقَدَّمُوا لِيَعْرِضُوا حُجَجَهُمْ. لِنَجْتَمِعْ مَعاً لِلْمُثُولِ أَمَامَ الْقَضَاءِ. | ١ 1 |
“Keep silent before me, islands, and let the peoples renew their strength. Let them come near, then let them speak. Let’s meet together for judgement.
| مَنْ أَقَامَ مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ قَائِداً مُظَفَّراً، يُوَاكِبُ النَّصْرُ كُلَّ خُطْوَةٍ مِنْ خُطْوَاتِهِ، وَأَسْلَمَ الأُمَمَ إِلَيْهِ وَأَخْضَعَ لَهُ الْمُلُوكَ، وَجَعَلَهُمْ كَالتُّرَابِ بِسَيْفِهِ، وَكَالْعُصَافَةِ الْمُذَرَّاةِ بِقَوْسِهِ؟ | ٢ 2 |
Who has raised up one from the east? Who called him to his feet in righteousness? He hands over nations to him and makes him rule over kings. He gives them like the dust to his sword, like the driven stubble to his bow.
| يَتَعَقَّبُهُمْ وَيَجُوزُ آمِناً فِي دُرُوبٍ لَمْ يَطَأْهَا بِقَدَمَيْهِ. | ٣ 3 |
He pursues them and passes by safely, even by a way that he had not gone with his feet.
| مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا وَأَنْجَزَهُ دَاعِياً الأَجْيَالَ مُنْذُ الْبَدْءِ؟ أَنَا الرَّبُّ. أَنَا الأَوَّلُ وَالآخِرُ. | ٤ 4 |
Who has worked and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I, the LORD, the first, and with the last, I am he.”
| شَاهَدَتِ الْجَزَائِرُ فِعْلِي وَخَافَتْ، وَارْتَجَفَتْ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ فَتَجَمَّعُوا مَعاً. | ٥ 5 |
The islands have seen, and fear. The ends of the earth tremble. They approach, and come.
| شَرَعَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ يُشَجِّعُ جَارَهُ قَائِلاً لَهُ: تَشَدَّدْ. | ٦ 6 |
Everyone helps his neighbour. They say to their brothers, “Be strong!”
| فَشَجَّعَ الصَّانِعُ الصَّائِغَ، وَالصَّاقِلُ بِالْمِطْرَقَةِ الضَّارِبَ عَلَى السَّنْدَانِ قَائِلاً عَنِ الإِلْحَامِ: هَذَا عَمَلٌ جَيِّدٌ. ثُمَّ يُثَبِّتُ الصَّنَمَ بِمَسَامِيرَ كَيْ لَا يَتَقَلْقَلَ. | ٧ 7 |
So the carpenter encourages the goldsmith. He who smooths with the hammer encourages him who strikes the anvil, saying of the soldering, “It is good;” and he fastens it with nails, that it might not totter.
| أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَبْدِي. يَا يَعْقُوبُ الَّذِي اصْطَفَيْتُهُ، يَا ذُرِّيَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلِي، | ٨ 8 |
“But you, Israel, my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the offspring of Abraham my friend,
| يَا مَنْ أَخَذْتُكَ مِنْ أَقَاصِي الأَرْضِ، وَدَعَوْتُكَ مِنْ أَبْعَدِ أَطْرَافِهَا قَائِلاً لَكَ: أَنْتَ عَبْدِي. لَقَدِ اصْطَفَيْتُكَ وَلَمْ أَنْبِذْكَ. | ٩ 9 |
you whom I have taken hold of from the ends of the earth, and called from its corners, and said to you, ‘You are my servant. I have chosen you and have not cast you away.’
| لَا تَخَفْ لأَنِّي مَعَكَ. لَا تَتَلَفَّتْ حَوْلَكَ جَزَعاً، لأَنِّي إِلَهُكَ، أُشَدِّدُكَ وَأُعِينُكَ وَأَعْضُدُكَ بِيَمِينِ بِرِّي | ١٠ 10 |
Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.
| يَعْتَرِي الْخِزْيُ وَالْعَارُ كُلَّ مَنْ يَغْتَاظُ مِنْكَ، وَيَتَلاشَى مُقَاوِمُوكَ كَالْعَدَمِ. | ١١ 11 |
Behold, all those who are incensed against you will be disappointed and confounded. Those who strive with you will be like nothing, and shall perish.
| تَبْحَثُ عَنْ خُصُومِكَ فَلا تَجِدُ أَحَداً مِنْهُمْ، وَيُصْبِحُ مُحَارِبُوكَ كَلا شَيْءٍ، | ١٢ 12 |
You will seek them, and won’t find them, even those who contend with you. Those who war against you will be as nothing, as a nonexistent thing.
| لأَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ الَّذِي يُمْسِكُ بِيَمِينِكَ قَائِلاً لَكَ: لَا تَخَفْ. سَأُعِينُكَ. | ١٣ 13 |
For I, the LORD your God, will hold your right hand, saying to you, ‘Don’t be afraid. I will help you.’
| لَا تَخَفْ يَا يَعْقُوبُ الضَّعِيفُ كَالْحَشَرَةِ، وَيَا إِسْرَائِيلُ الْعَلِيلُ كَالشِّرْذِمَةِ، لأَنِّي سَأُعِينُكَ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ فَادِيكَ قُدُّوسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٤ 14 |
Don’t be afraid, you worm Jacob, and you men of Israel. I will help you,” says the LORD. “Your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.
| وَهَا أَنَا أَجْعَلُكَ نَوْرَجاً مُحَدَّداً جَدِيداً مُسَنَّناً، فَتَدْرُسُ الْجِبَالَ وَتَجْعَلُ التِّلالَ كَالْعُصَافَةِ، | ١٥ 15 |
Behold, I have made you into a new sharp threshing instrument with teeth. You will thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and will make the hills like chaff.
| فَتُذَرِّيهَا، وَتَحْمِلُهَا الرِّيحُ بَعِيداً، وَتُبَدِّدُهَا الزَّوْبَعَةُ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَتَبْتَهِجُ بِالرَّبِّ وَتُمَجِّدُ قُدُّوسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٦ 16 |
You will winnow them, and the wind will carry them away, and the whirlwind will scatter them. You will rejoice in the LORD. You will glory in the Holy One of Israel.
| وَعِنْدَمَا يَلْتَمِسُ الْبَائِسُونَ وَالْمَسَاكِينُ مَاءً وَلا يَجِدُونَهُ، وَتَتَشَقَّقُ أَلْسِنَتُهُمْ مِنَ الْعَطَشِ، أَنَا الرَّبُّ أَسْتَجِيبُ لَهُمْ، أَنَا إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ لَا أَتَخَلَّى عَنْهُمْ. | ١٧ 17 |
The poor and needy seek water, and there is none. Their tongue fails for thirst. I, the LORD, will answer them. I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them.
| فَأُفَجِّرُ أَنْهَاراً عَلَى الْهِضَابِ وَيَنَابِيعَ فِي وَسَطِ الأَوْدِيَةِ، وَأُحَوِّلُ الْبَرِّيَّةَ إِلَى وَاحَةِ مَاءٍ وَالأَرْضَ الْقَاحِلَةَ إِلَى جَدَاوِلَ. | ١٨ 18 |
I will open rivers on the bare heights, and springs in the middle of the valleys. I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.
| وَأُنْبِتُ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ الأَرْزَ وَالسَّنْطَ وَالآسَ وَشَجَرَ الزَّيْتُونِ، وَأُنَمِّي فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ أَشْجَارَ السَّرْوِ وَالسِّنْدِيَانَ وَالشَّرْبِينَ جَمِيعاً، | ١٩ 19 |
I will put cedar, acacia, myrtle, and oil trees in the wilderness. I will set cypress trees, pine, and box trees together in the desert;
| حَتَّى يَرَى النَّاسُ وَيُدْرِكُوا وَيَتَأَمَّلُوا وَيَفْهَمُوا مَعاً أَنَّ يَدَ الرَّبِّ هِيَ الَّتِي صَنَعَتْ هَذَا، وَأَنَّ قُدُّوسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ هُوَ الَّذِي أَبْدَعَهُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
that they may see, know, consider, and understand together, that the LORD’s hand has done this, and the Holy One of Israel has created it.
| اعْرِضُوا دَعْوَاكُمْ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، وَقَدِّمُوا حُجَجَكُمْ يَقُولُ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Produce your cause,” says the LORD. “Bring out your strong reasons!” says the King of Jacob.
| أَحْضِرُوا أَصْنَامَكُمْ لِيُنْبِئُونَا عَمَّا يَأْتِي بِهِ الْمُسْتَقْبَلُ، وَعَنِ الأُمُورِ الْغَابِرَةِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
“Let them announce and declare to us what will happen! Declare the former things, what they are, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or show us things to come.
| أَطْلِعُونَا عَلَى أَحْدَاثِ الْغَيْبِ فَنَعْلَمَ أَنَّكُمْ آلِهَةٌ حَقّاً. إِيتُوا بِمُعْجِزَةٍ خَيْراً كَانَتْ أَمْ شَرّاً، تُثِيرُ دَهْشَتَنَا أَوْ رُعْبَنَا. | ٢٣ 23 |
Declare the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods. Yes, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and see it together.
| وَلَكِنْ أَنْتُمْ لَا شَيْءَ، وَفِعْلُكُمْ عَدَمٌ، وَلا يَصْطَفِيكُمْ سِوَى الرِّجْسِ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Behold, you are nothing, and your work is nothing. He who chooses you is an abomination.
| قَدْ آثَرْتُ رَجُلاً مِنَ الشَّمَالِ، هَا هُوَ مُقْبِلٌ مِنْ مَشْرِقِ الشَّمْسِ يَدْعُو بِاسْمِي، يَطَأُ الْوُلاةَ كَمَا يَطَأُ فَوْقَ الْوَحْلِ، وَيَدُوسُ عَلَيْهِمْ كَمَا يَدُوسُ الْخَزَّافُ فَوْقَ الطِّينِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
“I have raised up one from the north, and he has come, from the rising of the sun, one who calls on my name, and he shall come on rulers as on mortar, and as the potter treads clay.
| مَنْ أَنْبَأَ بِهَذَا الْحَدَثِ مُنْذُ الْبَدْءِ حَتَّى نَعْلَمَ بِهِ؟ وَقَبْلَ أَوَانِ حُدُوثِهِ حَتَّى نَقُولَ: هُوَ صَادِقٌ. لَمْ يُوْجَدْ مُنْبِئٌ أَوْ مُعْلِنٌ، وَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ أَحَدٌ كَلِمَةً مِنْكُمْ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Who has declared it from the beginning, that we may know? and before, that we may say, ‘He is right’? Surely, there is no one who declares. Surely, there is no one who shows. Surely, there is no one who hears your words.
| أَنَا أَوَّلُ قَائِلٍ لِصِهْيَوْنَ: انْظُرُوا هَا هُمْ، وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ أَقَامَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ بَشِيراً، | ٢٧ 27 |
I am the first to say to Zion, ‘Behold, look at them;’ and I will give one who brings good news to Jerusalem.
| وَلَكِنْ عِنْدَمَا تَطَلَّعْتُ إِلَى الأَصْنَامِ لَمْ أَجِدْ أَحَداً، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ هُنَاكَ بَيْنَهُمْ مُشِيرٌ أَسْأَلُهُ فَيُجِيبُ. | ٢٨ 28 |
When I look, there is no man, even amongst them there is no counsellor who, when I ask, can answer a word.
| انْظُرُوا، إِنَّهُمْ جَمِيعاً وَهْمٌ بَاطِلٌ، وَأَعْمَالَهُمْ وَأَصْنَامَهُمُ الْمَسْبُوكَةَ رِيحٌ وَخَوَاءٌ. | ٢٩ 29 |
Behold, all of their deeds are vanity and nothing. Their molten images are wind and confusion.
