إشَعْياء 59
| انْظُرُوا، إِنَّ ذِرَاعَ الرَّبِّ لَيْسَتْ قَاصِرَةً حَتَّى تَعْجِزَ عَنْ أَنْ تُخَلِّصَ، وَلا أُذُنَهُ ثَقِيلَةٌ حَتَّى لَا تَسْمَعَ. | ١ 1 |
Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it can’t save; nor his ear dull, that it can’t hear.
| إِنَّمَا خَطَايَاكُمْ أَضْحَتْ تَفْصِلُ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَآثَامُكُمْ حَجَبَتْ وَجْهَهُ عَنْكُمْ، فَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ، | ٢ 2 |
But your iniquities have separated you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.
| لأَنَّ أَيْدِيَكُمْ تَلَوَّثَتْ بِالدَّمِ وَأَصَابِعَكُمْ بِالإِثْمِ، وَنَطَقَتْ شِفَاهُكُمْ بِالْكَذِبِ، وَلَهَجَتْ أَلْسِنَتُكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ. | ٣ 3 |
For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity. Your lips have spoken lies. Your tongue mutters wickedness.
| لَيْسَ بَيْنَكُمْ مَنْ يُطَالِبُ بِالْعَدْلِ، أَوْ يَحْكُمُ بِالْحَقِّ. يَتَّكِلُونَ عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ وَيَتَفَوَّهُونَ بِالزُّورِ، يَحْبَلُونَ بِالْغِشِّ، وَيَلِدُونَ بِالإِثْمِ. | ٤ 4 |
No one sues in righteousness, and no one pleads in truth. They trust in vanity and speak lies. They conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.
| يَفْقِسُونَ بَيْضَ أَفْعَى، وَيَنْسِجُونَ خُيُوطَ الْعَنْكَبُوتِ. مَنْ يَأْكُلُ مِنْ بَيْضِهِمْ يَمُوتُ، وَمِنَ الْبَيْضَةِ الْمَكْسُورَةِ تَخْرُجُ حَيَّةٌ. | ٥ 5 |
They hatch adders’ eggs and weave the spider’s web. He who eats of their eggs dies; and that which is crushed breaks out into a viper.
| لَا تَصْلُحُ خُيُوطُهُمْ لِنَسِيجِ الثِّيَابِ، وَلا يَكْتَسُونَ بِأَعْمَالِهِمْ، لأَنَّ أَعْمَالَهُمْ هِيَ أَعْمَالُ إِثْمٍ، وَأَفْعَالُ الظُّلْمِ قَدِ ارْتَكَبَتْهَا أَيْدِيهِمْ. | ٦ 6 |
Their webs won’t become garments. They won’t cover themselves with their works. Their works are works of iniquity, and acts of violence are in their hands.
| تُسْرِعُ أَرْجُلُهُمْ لاِقْتِرَافِ الشَّرِّ، وَيُهَرْوِلُونَ لِسَفْكِ دَمِ الْبَرِيءِ، أَفْكَارُهُمْ أَفْكَارٌ أَثِيمَةٌ، وَفِي طُرُقِهِمْ دَمَارٌ وَخَرَابٌ، | ٧ 7 |
Their feet run to evil, and they hurry to shed innocent blood. Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity. Desolation and destruction are in their paths.
| لَمْ يَعْرِفُوا سَبِيلَ السَّلامِ، وَلا عَدْلَ فِي مَسَالِكِهِمْ. عَوَّجُوا طُرُقَهُمْ، وَالسَّالِكُ فِيهَا لَا يَعْرِفُ سَلاماً. | ٨ 8 |
They don’t know the way of peace; and there is no justice in their ways. They have made crooked paths for themselves; whoever goes in them doesn’t know peace.
| الْحَقُّ ابْتَعَدَ عَنَّا، وَلَمْ يُدْرِكْنَا الْعَدْلُ. نَرْتَقِبُ نُوراً، فَيُحْدِقُ بِنَا الظَّلامُ، وَنَنْشُدُ ضَوْءاً فَنَسْلُكُ فِي الْعَتْمَةِ. | ٩ 9 |
Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness doesn’t overtake us. We look for light, but see darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.
| نَتَحَسَّسُ الْحَائِطَ كَالأَعْمَى، وَنَتَلَمَّسُ كَالْمَكْفُوفِ، نَتَعَثَّرُ فِي الظَّهِيرَةِ كَمَا لَوْ كُنَّا نَسِيرُ فِي عَتْمَةِ اللَّيْلِ وَنَكُونُ كَالأَمْوَاتِ بَيْنَ الْمُتَدَفِّقِينَ بِالْحَيَاةِ. | ١٠ 10 |
We grope for the wall like the blind. Yes, we grope as those who have no eyes. We stumble at noon as if it were twilight. Amongst those who are strong, we are like dead men.
| كُلُّنَا نُزَمْجِرُ كَالدِّبَبَةِ، وَنَنُوحُ كَالْحَمَامِ. نَبْحَثُ عَنِ الْعَدْلِ فَلا نَجِدُهُ، وَعَنِ الْخَلاصِ وَإذَا بِهِ قَدِ ابْتَعَدَ عَنَّا، | ١١ 11 |
We all roar like bears and moan sadly like doves. We look for justice, but there is none, for salvation, but it is far off from us.
| لأَنَّ مَعَاصِيَنَا كَثُرَتْ أَمَامَكَ، وَآثَامَنَا تَشْهَدُ عَلَيْنَا. فَمَعَاصِينَا مَعَنَا، وَذُنُوبُنَا نَعْرِفُهَا. | ١٢ 12 |
For our transgressions are multiplied before you, and our sins testify against us; for our transgressions are with us, and as for our iniquities, we know them:
| تَمَرَّدْنَا وَتَنَكَّرْنَا لِلرَّبِّ. ارْتَدَدْنَا عَنِ اتِّبَاعِ طُرُقِ إِلَهِنَا، تَفَوَّهْنَا بِالظُّلْمِ وَالْعِصْيَانِ افْتِرَاءً، وَبِكَلامِ زُورٍ مِنَ الْقَلْبِ. | ١٣ 13 |
transgressing and denying the LORD, and turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
| قَدِ ارْتَدَّ عَنَّا الإِنْصَافُ، وَوَقَفَ الْعَدْلُ بَعِيداً، إِذْ سَقَطَ الْحَقُّ صَرِيعاً فِي الشَّوَارِعِ، وَالْبِرُّ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعِ الدُّخُولَ. | ١٤ 14 |
Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has fallen in the street, and uprightness can’t enter.
| أَضْحَى الْحَقُّ مَفْقُوداً، وَالْحَائِدُ عَنِ الشَّرِّ ضَحِيَّةً. رَأَى الرَّبُّ ذَلِكَ فَأَسْخَطَهُ فُقْدَانُ الإِنْصَافِ. | ١٥ 15 |
Yes, truth is lacking; and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey. The LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no justice.
| وَإِذْ لَمْ يَجِدْ إِنْسَاناً يَنْتَصِرُ لِلْحَقِّ، وَأَدْهَشَهُ أَنْ لَا يَرَى شَفِيعاً، أَحْرَزَتْ لَهُ ذِرَاعُهُ انْتِصَاراً، وَعَضَدَهُ بِرُّهُ. | ١٦ 16 |
He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor. Therefore his own arm brought salvation to him; and his righteousness sustained him.
| فَتَدَرَّعَ بِالْبِرِّ وَارْتَدَى عَلَى رَأْسِهِ خُوذَةَ الْخَلاصِ، وَاكْتَسَى بِثِيَابِ الانْتِقَامِ، وَالْتَفَّ بِعَبَاءَةِ الْغَضَبِ. | ١٧ 17 |
He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on his head. He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a mantle.
| فَهُوَ يُجَازِيهِمْ بِمُقْتَضَى أَعْمَالِهِمْ. يُجَازِي أَعْدَاءَهُ، وَيُعَاقِبُ خُصُومَهُ، وَيُنْزِلُ الْقَصَاصَ بِالْجَزَائِرِ، | ١٨ 18 |
According to their deeds, he will repay as appropriate: wrath to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies. He will repay the islands their due.
| فَيَتَّقُونَ مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ اسْمَ الرَّبِّ، وَمِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ يَخْشَوْنَ مَجْدَ الرَّبِّ، لأَنَّهُ سَيَأْتِي الْعَدُوُّ كَنَهْرٍ مُتَدَفِّقٍ فَتَدْفَعُهُ رِيحُ الرَّبِّ. | ١٩ 19 |
So they will fear the LORD’s name from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come as a rushing stream, which the LORD’s breath drives.
| وَيُقْبِلُ الْفَادِي إِلَى صِهْيَوْنَ، وَإِلَى التَّائِبِينَ عَنْ مَعَاصِيهِمْ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ يَعْقُوبَ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٢٠ 20 |
“A Redeemer will come to Zion, and to those who turn from disobedience in Jacob,” says the LORD.
| أَمَّا أَنَا، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، فَهَذَا عَهْدِي مَعَهُمْ: إِنَّ رُوحِي الْحَالَّ عَلَيْكَ وَكَلامِي الَّذِي لَقَّنْتُكَ إِيَّاهُ، لَا يَزُولُ مِنْ فَمِكَ أَوْ مِنْ فَمِ أَبْنَائِكَ أَوْ أَحْفَادِكَ، مِنَ الآنَ وَإِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٢١ 21 |
“As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says the LORD. “My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your offspring, nor out of the mouth of your offspring’s offspring,” says the LORD, “from now on and forever.”
