< إشَعْياء 6 >

وَفِي سَنَةِ وَفَاةِ الْمَلِكِ عُزِّيَّا، شَاهَدْتُ السَّيِّدَ جَالِساً عَلَى عَرْشٍ مُرْتَفِعٍ سَامٍ، وَقَدِ امْتَلأَ الْهَيْكَلُ مِنْ أَهْدَابِهِ، ١ 1
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and His train filled the temple.
وَأَحَاطَ بِهِ مَلائِكَةُ السَّرَافِيمِ، لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ سِتَّةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ، أَخْفَى وَجْهَهُ بِجَنَاحَيْنِ، وَغَطَّى قَدَمَيْهِ بِجَنَاحَيْنِ، وَيَطِيرُ بِالْجَنَاحَيْنِ الْبَاقِيَيْنِ. ٢ 2
Above Him stood the seraphim; each one had six wings: with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
وَنَادَى أَحَدُهُمُ الآخَرَ: «قُدُّوسٌ، قُدُّوسٌ، قُدُّوسٌ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ. مَجْدُهُ مِلْءُ كُلِّ الأَرْضِ». ٣ 3
And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.
فَاهْتَزَّتْ أُسُسُ أَرْكَانِ الْهَيْكَلِ مِنْ صَوْتِ الْمُنَادِي، وَامْتَلأَ الْهَيْكَلُ بِالدُّخَانِ. ٤ 4
And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke.
فَقُلْتُ: «وَيْلٌ لِي لأَنِّي هَلَكْتُ لأَنِّي إِنْسَانٌ نَجِسُ الشَّفَتَيْنِ، وَأَسْكُنُ وَسَطَ قَوْمٍ دَنِسِي الشِّفَاهِ. فَإِنَّ عَيْنَيَّ قَدْ أَبْصَرَتَا الْمَلِكَ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ». ٥ 5
Then said I: Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
فَطَارَ أَحَدُ السَّرَافِيمِ إِلَيَّ وَبِيَدِهِ جَمْرَةٌ أَخَذَهَا مِنْ عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ، ٦ 6
Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, with a glowing stone in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar;
وَمَسَّ بِها فَمِي قَائِلاً: «انْظُرْ، هَا إِنَّ هَذِهِ قَدْ مَسَّتْ شَفَتَيْكَ فَانْتُزِعَ إِثْمُكَ وَتَمَّ التَّكْفِيرُ عَنْ خَطِيئَتِكَ». ٧ 7
and he touched my mouth with it, and said: Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.
وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ الرَّبِّ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ أُرْسِلُ، وَمَنْ يَذْهَبُ مِنْ أَجْلِنَا؟» عِنْدَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «هَا أَنَا أَرْسِلْنِي». ٨ 8
And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said: 'Here am I; send me.'
فَقَالَ: «امْضِ وَقُلْ لِهَذَا الشَّعْبِ: اسْمَعُوا سَمْعاً وَلَكِنْ لَا تَفْهَمُوا. انْظُرُوا نَظَراً وَلَكِنْ لَا تُدْرِكُوا. ٩ 9
And He said: 'Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
قَسِّ قَلْبَ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ، وَثَقِّلْ أُذْنَيْهِ وَأَغْمِضْ عَيْنَيْهِ لِئَلَّا يَرَى بِعَيْنَيْهِ وَيَسْمَعَ بِأُذْنَيْهِ وَيَفْهَمَ بِقَلْبِهِ، فَيَرْجِعَ عَنْ غَيِّهِ وَيَبْرَأَ». ١٠ 10
Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.'
ثُمَّ قُلْتُ: «إِلَى مَتَى يَا رَبُّ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «إِلَى أَنْ تُصْبِحَ الْمُدُنُ خَرِبَةً مَهْجُورَةً، وَالْبُيُوتُ خَالِيَةً مِنَ الرِّجَالِ، وَالْحُقُولُ خَرَاباً مُقْفِراً. ١١ 11
Then said I: 'Lord, how long?' And He answered: 'Until cities be waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land become utterly waste,
وَيَنْفِيَ الرَّبُّ الإِنْسَانَ بَعِيداً، وَتَكْثُرَ الأَمَاكِنُ الْمُوْحِشَةُ فِي وَسَطِ الأَرْضِ. ١٢ 12
And the LORD have removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land.
وَحَتَّى لَوْ بَقِيَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ عُشْرُ أَهْلِهَا، فَإِنَّهَا سَتُحْرَقُ ثَانِيَةً، وَلَكِنَّهَا تَكُونُ كَالْبُطْمَةِ وَالْبَلُّوطَةِ، الَّتِي وَإِنْ قُطِعَتْ يَبْقَى سَاقُهَا قَائِماً: هَكَذَا يَبْقَى سَاقُهَا زَرْعاً مُقَدَّساً». ١٣ 13
And if there be yet a tenth in it, it shall again be eaten up; as a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stock remaineth, when they cast their leaves, so the holy seed shall be the stock thereof.'
