Isaiah 56
1 This is what the Lord says: Follow the law, and do what is right, for my salvation will soon arrive, and my goodness will be revealed.
| هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: أَجْرُوا الْحَقَّ، وَاصْنَعُوا الْعَدْلَ، لأَنَّ خَلاصِي بَاتَ وَشِيكاً وَبِرِّي حَانَ أَنْ يُسْتَعْلَنَ. | ١ |
2 Blessed is everyone who does this—those who keep to it, who observe the Sabbath without violating it, and who don't do anything wrong.
| طُوبَى لِمَنْ يُمَارِسُ هَذِهِ وَيَعْمَلُ بِها وَيُكَرِّمُ سُبُوتِي؛ وَطُوبَى لِمَنْ يَصُونُ يَدَهُ عَنِ ارْتِكَابِ الشَّرِّ. | ٢ |
3 Don't allow foreigners who have dedicated themselves to the Lord say, “The Lord will definitely exclude me from his people.” And don't allow eunuchs to say, “Look at me—I'm as worthless as a dried-up tree because I'm childless.”
| لَا يَقُلِ ابْنُ الْغَرِيبِ الْمُنْضَمُّ إِلَى الرَّبِّ: إِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَفْصِلُنِي عَنْ شَعْبِهِ. وَلا يَقُولَنَّ الْخَصِيُّ: أَنَا شَجَرَةٌ يَابِسَةٌ. | ٣ |
4 For this is what the Lord says: To the eunuchs who observe my Sabbaths, who choose to do what pleases me, and to keep my agreement,
| لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ لِلْخِصْيَانِ الَّذِينَ يُحَافِظُونَ عَلَى سُبُوتِي، وَيَخْتَارُونَ مَا يَسُرُّنِي وَيَتَمَسَّكُونَ بِعَهْدِي: | ٤ |
5 I will give them, in my house and within my walls, a place to remember them and a reputation better than that of sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting reputation that will never fade.
| أَهَبُهُمْ دَاخِلَ بَيْتِي وَأَسْوَارِي نَصِيباً وَاسْماً أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْبَنِينَ وَالْبَنَاتِ. أُعْطِيهِمِ اسْماً مُخَلَّداً لَا يَنْقَرِضُ. | ٥ |
6 About the foreigners who have dedicated themselves to the Lord, who worship him, who love the Lord, and who are his servants, everyone who observes the Sabbath without violating it and who keep to my agreement—
| وَأَمَّا أَبْنَاءُ الْغُرَبَاءِ الْمُنْضَمُّونَ إِلَى الرَّبِّ لِيَخْدِمُوهُ وَيُحِبُّوا اسْمَهُ لِيَكُونُوا لَهُ عَبِيداً، فَكُلُّ مَنْ يُحَافِظُ عَلَى السَّبْتِ مِنْهُمْ وَلا يَنْقُضُهُ، وَيَتَمَسَّكُ بِعَهْدِي، | ٦ |
7 I will bring these foreigners to my holy mountain and make them happy in my house of prayer. I will accept their burnt offerings and sacrifices, because my Temple will be called a house of prayer for all nations.
| فَهَؤُلاءِ آتِي بِهِمْ إِلَى جَبَلِي الْمُقَدَّسِ وَأَفِيضُ عَلَيْهِمِ الْفَرَحَ فِي بَيْتِ صَلاتِي، وَتَكُونُ مُحْرَقَاتُهُمْ وَقَرَابِينُهُمْ مَقْبُولَةً عَلَى مَذْبَحِي، لأَنَّ بَيْتِي سَيُدْعَى بَيْتَ الصَّلاةِ لِجَمِيعِ الأُمَمِ. | ٧ |
8 This is what the Lord God says, who brought back the scattered people of Israel: I will bring back still others to join you.
| وَهَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي يَلُمُّ شَتَاتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ: سَأَجْمَعُ إِلَيْهِ آخَرِينَ بَعْدُ، فَضْلاً عَنِ الَّذِينَ جَمَعْتُهُمْ. | ٨ |
9 Come, wild animals, wild animals of the countryside and forests, come and eat my people!
| تَعَالَيْ يَا جَمِيعَ وُحُوشِ الصَّحْرَاءِ لِلالْتِهَامِ، وَيَا جَمِيعَ وُحُوشِ الْغَابِ أَيْضاً. | ٩ |
10 For all the watchmen are blind. None of them know what's going on. They're all silent—they can't bark. They spend their time lying down, dreaming, loving to sleep.
| فَإِنَّ رُقَبَاءَهُمْ عُمْيٌ، وَكُلَّهُمْ جُهَّالٌ، وَكِلابٌ بُكْمٌ عَاجِزُونَ عَنِ النِّبَاحِ، حَالِمُونَ رَاقِدُونَ مُوْلَعُونَ بِالنَّوْمِ. | ١٠ |
11 They're greedy dogs that are never satisfied. They're sheepdogs who don't know their job. All of them go their own way, each of them looking out for themselves.
| هُمْ كِلابٌ نَهِمَةٌ لَا تَعْرِفُ الشَّبَعَ، وَرُعَاةٌ أَيْضاً مُجَرَّدُونَ مِنَ الْفَهْمِ، كُلٌّ مَالَ إِلَى طَرِيقِهِ طَمَعاً فِي الرِّبْحِ، | ١١ |
12 “Come on,” they say, “I'll get some wine and let's get drunk! We'll do this today, and tomorrow we'll drink so much more!”
| قَائِلِينَ: تَعَالَوْا نَأْتِي بِالْخَمْرِ، وَنَشْرَبُ مُسْكِراً حَتَّى الثُّمَالَةِ، فَالْغَدُ يَكُونُ مُمَاثِلاً لِهَذَا الْيَوْمِ، بَلْ أَعْظَمَ مِنْهُ. | ١٢ |
