< Isaiah 6 >

1 In the yeere of the death of King Vzziah, I saw also the Lord sitting vpon an high throne, and lifted vp, and the lower partes thereof filled the Temple.
وَفِي سَنَةِ وَفَاةِ الْمَلِكِ عُزِّيَّا، شَاهَدْتُ السَّيِّدَ جَالِساً عَلَى عَرْشٍ مُرْتَفِعٍ سَامٍ، وَقَدِ امْتَلأَ الْهَيْكَلُ مِنْ أَهْدَابِهِ،١
2 The Seraphims stoode vpon it: euery one had sixe wings: with twaine he couered his face, and with twaine hee couered his feete, and with twaine he did flie.
وَأَحَاطَ بِهِ مَلائِكَةُ السَّرَافِيمِ، لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ سِتَّةُ أَجْنِحَةٍ، أَخْفَى وَجْهَهُ بِجَنَاحَيْنِ، وَغَطَّى قَدَمَيْهِ بِجَنَاحَيْنِ، وَيَطِيرُ بِالْجَنَاحَيْنِ الْبَاقِيَيْنِ.٢
3 And one cryed to another, and sayde, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hostes: the whole world is full of his glory.
وَنَادَى أَحَدُهُمُ الآخَرَ: «قُدُّوسٌ، قُدُّوسٌ، قُدُّوسٌ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ. مَجْدُهُ مِلْءُ كُلِّ الأَرْضِ».٣
4 And the lintles of the doore cheekes moued at the voyce of him that cryed, and the house was filled with smoke.
فَاهْتَزَّتْ أُسُسُ أَرْكَانِ الْهَيْكَلِ مِنْ صَوْتِ الْمُنَادِي، وَامْتَلأَ الْهَيْكَلُ بِالدُّخَانِ.٤
5 Then I sayd, Wo is me: for I am vndone, because I am a man of polluted lips, and I dwell in the middes of a people of polluted lips: for mine eyes haue seene the King and Lord of hostes.
فَقُلْتُ: «وَيْلٌ لِي لأَنِّي هَلَكْتُ لأَنِّي إِنْسَانٌ نَجِسُ الشَّفَتَيْنِ، وَأَسْكُنُ وَسَطَ قَوْمٍ دَنِسِي الشِّفَاهِ. فَإِنَّ عَيْنَيَّ قَدْ أَبْصَرَتَا الْمَلِكَ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ».٥
6 Then flewe one of the Seraphims vnto me with an hote cole in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with the tongs:
فَطَارَ أَحَدُ السَّرَافِيمِ إِلَيَّ وَبِيَدِهِ جَمْرَةٌ أَخَذَهَا مِنْ عَلَى الْمَذْبَحِ،٦
7 And he touched my mouth, and sayd, Loe, this hath touched thy lips, and thine iniquitie shall be taken away, and thy sinne shalbe purged.
وَمَسَّ بِها فَمِي قَائِلاً: «انْظُرْ، هَا إِنَّ هَذِهِ قَدْ مَسَّتْ شَفَتَيْكَ فَانْتُزِعَ إِثْمُكَ وَتَمَّ التَّكْفِيرُ عَنْ خَطِيئَتِكَ».٧
8 Also I heard the voyce of the Lord, saying, Whome shall I send? and who shall goe for vs? Then I sayd, Here am I, send me.
وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ الرَّبِّ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ أُرْسِلُ، وَمَنْ يَذْهَبُ مِنْ أَجْلِنَا؟» عِنْدَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «هَا أَنَا أَرْسِلْنِي».٨
9 And he sayd, Goe, and say vnto this people, Ye shall heare in deede, but ye shall not vnderstand: ye shall plainely see, and not perceiue.
فَقَالَ: «امْضِ وَقُلْ لِهَذَا الشَّعْبِ: اسْمَعُوا سَمْعاً وَلَكِنْ لَا تَفْهَمُوا. انْظُرُوا نَظَراً وَلَكِنْ لَا تُدْرِكُوا.٩
10 Make the heart of this people fatte, make their eares heauie, and shut their eyes, lest they see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and vnderstand with their hearts, and conuert, and he heale them.
قَسِّ قَلْبَ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ، وَثَقِّلْ أُذْنَيْهِ وَأَغْمِضْ عَيْنَيْهِ لِئَلَّا يَرَى بِعَيْنَيْهِ وَيَسْمَعَ بِأُذْنَيْهِ وَيَفْهَمَ بِقَلْبِهِ، فَيَرْجِعَ عَنْ غَيِّهِ وَيَبْرَأَ».١٠
11 Then sayd I, Lord, howe long? And he answered, Vntill the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be vtterly desolate,
ثُمَّ قُلْتُ: «إِلَى مَتَى يَا رَبُّ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «إِلَى أَنْ تُصْبِحَ الْمُدُنُ خَرِبَةً مَهْجُورَةً، وَالْبُيُوتُ خَالِيَةً مِنَ الرِّجَالِ، وَالْحُقُولُ خَرَاباً مُقْفِراً.١١
12 And the Lord haue remoued men farre away, and there be a great desolation in the mids of the land.
وَيَنْفِيَ الرَّبُّ الإِنْسَانَ بَعِيداً، وَتَكْثُرَ الأَمَاكِنُ الْمُوْحِشَةُ فِي وَسَطِ الأَرْضِ.١٢
13 But yet in it shalbe a tenth, and shall returne, and shalbe eaten vp as an elme or an oke, which haue a substance in them, when they cast their leaues: so the holy seede shall be the substance thereof.
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
