Isaiah 60

1 “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the LORD’s glory has risen on you!

١ قُومِي اسْتَضِيئِي، فَإِنَّ نُورَكِ قَدْ جَاءَ، وَمَجْدَ الرَّبِّ أَشْرَقَ عَلَيْكِ.

2 For behold, darkness will cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the LORD will arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.

٢ هَا إِنَّ الظُّلْمَةَ تَغْمُرُ الأَرْضَ، وَاللَّيْلَ الدَّامِسَ يَكْتَنِفُ الشُّعُوبَ، وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ يُشْرِقُ عَلَيْكِ، وَيَتَجَلَّى مَجْدُهُ حَوْلَكِ،

3 Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.

٣ فَتُقْبِلُ الأُمَمُ إِلَى نُورِكِ، وَتَتَوَافَدُ الْمُلُوكُ إِلَى إِشْرَاقِ ضِيَائِكِ.

4 “Lift up your eyes all around, and see: they all gather themselves together. They come to you. Your sons will come from far away, and your daughters will be carried in arms.

٤ تَأَمَّلِي حَوْلَكِ وَانْظُرِي، فَهَا هُمْ جَمِيعاً قَدِ اجْتَمَعُوا، وَأَتَوْا إِلَيْكِ. يَجِيءُ أَبْنَاؤُكِ مِنْ مَكَانٍ بَعِيدٍ، وَتُحْمَلُ بَنَاتُكِ عَلَى الأَذْرُعِ.

5 Then you shall see and be radiant, and your heart will thrill and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you. The wealth of the nations will come to you.

٥ عِنْدَئِذٍ تَنْظُرِينَ وَتَتَهَلَّلِينَ، وَتَطْغَى الإِثَارَةُ عَلَى قَلْبِكِ، وَتَمْتَلِئِينَ فَرَحاً لأَنَّ ثَرْوَاتِ الْبَحْرِ تَتَحَوَّلُ إِلَيْكِ وَغِنَى الأُمَمِ يَتَدَفَّقُ عَلَيْكِ.

6 A multitude of camels will cover you, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah. All from Sheba will come. They will bring gold and frankincense, and will proclaim the praises of the LORD.

٦ تَكْتَظُّ أَرْضُكِ بِكَثْرَةِ الإِبِلِ. مِنْ أَرْضِ مِدْيَانَ وَعِيفَةَ تَغْشَاكِ بَوَاكِيرُ، تَتَقَاطَرُ إِلَيْكِ مِنْ شَبَا مُحَمَّلَةً بِالذَّهَبِ وَاللُّبَانِ وَتُذِيعُ تَسْبِيحَ الرَّبِّ.

7 All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered together to you. The rams of Nebaioth will serve you. They will be accepted as offerings on my altar; and I will beautify my glorious house.

٧ جَمِيعُ قُطْعَانِ قِيدَارَ تَجْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكِ، وَكِبَاشُ نَبَايُوتَ تَخْدُمُكِ، تُقَدِّمُ قَرَابِينَ مَقْبُولَةً عَلَى مَذْبَحِي، وَأُمَجِّدُ بَيْتِي الْبَهِيَّ.

8 “Who are these who fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?

٨ مَنْ هُؤُلاءِ الطَّائِرُونَ كَالسَّحَابِ وَكَالْحَمَامِ إِلَى أَعْشَاشِهَا؟

9 Surely the islands will wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring your sons from far away, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD your God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because he has glorified you.

٩ فَالْجَزَائِرُ تَنْتَظِرُنِي، وَفِي الطَّلِيعَةِ سُفُنُ تَرْشِيشَ حَامِلَةٌ أَبْنَاءَكِ لِتَأْتِيَ بِهِمْ مِنْ أَرْضٍ بَعِيدَةٍ، وَمَعَهُمْ فِضَّتُهُمْ وَذَهَبُهُمْ، تَكْرِيماً لاسْمِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكِ وَلِقُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لأَنَّهُ قَدْ مَجَّدَكِ.

10 “Foreigners will build up your walls, and their kings will serve you; for in my wrath I struck you, but in my favor I have had mercy on you.

١٠ يُعَمِّرُ الْغُرَبَاءُ أَسْوَارَكِ، وَيَخْدُمُكِ مُلُوكُهُمْ، لأَنِّي فِي غَضَبِي عَاقَبْتُكِ، وَفِي رِضَايَ رَحَمْتُكِ.

11 Your gates also shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night, that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations, and their kings led captive.

١١ تَنْفَتِحُ أَبْوَابُكِ دَائِماً وَلا تُوْصَدُ لَيْلَ نَهَارَ، لِيَحْمِلَ إِلَيْكِ النَّاسُ ثَرْوَةَ الأُمَمِ، وَفِي مَوْكِبٍ يُسَاقُ إِلَيْكِ مُلُوكُهُمْ،

12 For that nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yes, those nations shall be utterly wasted.

١٢ لأَنَّ الأُمَّةَ وَالْمَمْلَكَةَ الَّتِي لَا تَخْضَعُ لَكِ تَهْلِكُ، وَهَذِهِ الشُّعُوبُ تَتَعَرَّضُ لِلْخَرَابِ السَّاحِقِ.

13 “The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, the cypress tree, the pine, and the box tree together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.

١٣ يَأْتِي إِلَيْكِ مَجْدُ لُبْنَانَ بِسَرْوِهِ وَسِنْدِيَانِهِ وَشِرْبِينِهِ لِتَزْيِينِ مَوْضِعِ مَقْدِسِي، فَأَجْعَلُ مَوْطِئَ قَدَمَيَّ مَجِيداً.

14 The sons of those who afflicted you will come bowing to you; and all those who despised you will bow themselves down at the soles of your feet. They will call you the LORD’s City, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

١٤ وَيُقْبِلُ إِلَيْكِ أَبْنَاءُ مُضَايِقِيكِ خَاضِعِينَ، وَكُلُّ الَّذِينَ احْتَقَرُوكِ يَنْحَنُونَ عِنْدَ قَدَمَيْكِ، وَيَدْعُونَكِ مَدِينَةَ الرَّبِّ، صِهْيَوْنَ قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

15 “Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, so that no one passed through you, I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.

١٥ وَبَعْدَ أَنْ كُنْتِ مَهْجُورَةً مَمْقُوتَةً لَا يَعْبُرُ بِكِ أَحَدٌ، سَأَجْعَلُكِ بَهِيَّةً إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَفَرَحَ كُلِّ الأَجْيَالِ،

16 You will also drink the milk of the nations, and will nurse from royal breasts. Then you will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

١٦ وَتَشْرَبِينَ لَبَنَ الأُمَمِ، وَتَرْضَعِينَ ثُدِيَّ الْمُلُوكِ، وَتُدْرِكِينَ أَنِّي أَنَا الرَّبُّ مُخَلِّصُكِ وَفَادِيكِ عَزِيزُ يَعْقُوبَ.

17 For bronze I will bring gold; for iron I will bring silver; for wood, bronze, and for stones, iron. I will also make peace your governor, and righteousness your ruler.

١٧ وَعِوَضاً عَنِ النُّحَاسِ أَجْلِبُ لَكِ الذَّهَبَ، وَبَدَلَ الْحَدِيدِ آتِي لَكِ بِالْفِضَّةِ، وَعِوَضَ الْخَشَبِ نُحَاساً، وَبَدَلَ الْحِجَارَةِ حَدِيداً، وَأَجْعَلُ وُلاتَكِ مَصْدَرَ سَلامٍ، وَمُسَخِّرِيكِ يَعَامِلُونَكِ بِالْعَدْلِ.

18 Violence shall no more be heard in your land, nor desolation or destruction within your borders; but you will call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise.

١٨ وَلا يُسْمَعُ بِظُلْمٍ فِي أَرْضِكِ، وَلا بِدَمَارٍ أَوْ خَرَابٍ دَاخِلَ تُخُومِكِ، وَتَدْعِينَ أَسْوَارَكِ خَلاصاً، وَبَوَّابَاتِكِ تَسَابِيحَ.

19 The sun will be no more your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon give light to you, but the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.

١٩ وَلا تَعُودُ الشَّمْسُ نُوراً لَكِ فِي النَّهَارِ وَلا يُشْرِقُ ضَوْءُ الْقَمَرِ عَلَيْكِ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَكُونُ نُورَكِ الأَبَدِيَّ، وَإِلَهُكِ يَكُونُ مَجْدَكِ.

20 Your sun will not go down any more, nor will your moon withdraw itself; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning will end.

٢٠ وَلا تَغْرُبُ شَمْسُكِ مِنْ بَعْدُ، وَلا يَتَضَاءَلُ قَمَرُكِ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ يَكُونُ نُورَكِ الأَبَدِيَّ، وَتَنْقَضِي أَيَّامُ مَنَاحَتِكِ.

21 Then your people will all be righteous. They will inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

٢١ وَيَكُونُ شَعْبُكِ جَمِيعاً أَبْرَاراً وَيَرِثُونَ الأَرْضَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فَهُمْ غُصْنُ غَرْسِي وَعَمَلُ يَدَيَّ لأَتَمَجَّدَ.

22 The little one will become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation. I, the LORD, will do this quickly in its time.”

٢٢ وَيَضْحَى أَقَلُّهُمْ أَلْفاً، وَأَصْغَرُهُمْ أُمَّةً قَوِيَّةً، أَنَا الرَّبُّ أُسْرِعُ فِي تَحْقِيقِ ذَلِكَ فِي حِينِهِ.
