Isaiah 55

1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

١ تَعَالَوْا أَيُّهَا الْعِطَاشُ جَمِيعاً إِلَى الْمِيَاهِ، وَهَلُمُّوا أَيُّهَا الْمُعْدَمُونَ مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ، ابْتَاعُوا وَكُلُوا، ابْتَاعُوا خَمْراً وَلَبَناً مَجَّاناً مِنْ غَيْرِ فِضَّةٍ.

2 Wherefore do ye spend money for [that which is] not bread? and your labour for [that which] satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye [that which is] good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

٢ لِمَاذَا تُنْفِقُونَ الْفِضَّةَ عَلَى مَا لَيْسَ بِخُبْزٍ، وَتَتْعَبُونَ لِغَيْرِ شَبَعٍ؟ أَحْسِنُوا الاسْتِمَاعَ إِلَيَّ، وَكُلُوا الشَّهِيَّ وَلْتَتَمَتَّعْ أَنْفُسُكُمْ بِالدَّسَمِ.

3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, [even] the sure mercies of David.

٣ أَرْهِفُوا السَّمْعَ وَتَعَالَوْا إِلَيَّ؛ أَصْغُوا فَتَحْيَا نُفُوسُكُمْ، وَأُعَاهِدَكُمْ عَهْداً أَبَدِيًّا، هِيَ مَرَاحِمُ دَاوُدَ الثَّابِتَةُ الأَمِينَةُ

4 Behold, I have given him [for] a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.

٤ هَا أَنَا قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ شَاهِداً لِلشُّعُوبِ زَعِيماً وَقَائِداً لِلأُمَمِ.

5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation [that] thou knowest not, and nations [that] knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

٥ انْظُرْ، إِنَّكَ تَدْعُو أُمَماً لَا تَعْرِفُهَا، وَتَسْعَى إِلَيْكَ أُمَمٌ لَمْ تَعْرِفْكَ، بِفَضْلِ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ، وَمِنْ أَجْلِ قُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، لأَنَّهُ قَدْ مَجَّدَكَ.

6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

٦ اطْلُبُوا الرَّبَّ مَادَامَ مَوْجُوداً، ادْعُوهُ وَهُوَ قَرِيبٌ.

7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

٧ لِيَتْرُكِ الشِّرِّيرُ طَرِيقَهُ وَالأَثِيمُ أَفْكَارَهُ، وَلْيَتُبْ إِلَى الرَّبِّ فَيَرْحَمَهُ، وَلْيَرْجِعْ إِلَى إِلَهِنَا لأَنَّهُ يُكْثِرُ الْغُفْرَانَ.

8 For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

٨ لأَنَّ أَفْكَارِي لَيْسَتْ مُمَاثِلَةً لأَفْكَارِكُمْ، وَلا طُرُقَكُمْ مِثْلُ طُرُقِي، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.

9 For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

٩ فَكَمَا ارْتَفَعَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ عَنِ الأَرْضِ، كَذَلِكَ ارْتَفَعَتْ طُرُقِي عَنْ طُرُقِكُمْ، وَأَفْكَارِي عَنْ أَفْكَارِكُمْ.

10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

١٠ وَكَمَا تَهْطِلُ الأَمْطَارُ وَيَنْهَمِرُ الثَّلْجُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، وَلا تَرْجِعُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ، بَلْ تُرْوِي الْحُقُولَ وَالأَشْجَارَ، وَتَجْعَلُ الْبُذُورَ تُنْبِتُ وَتَنْمُو وَتُثْمِرُ زَرْعاً لِلزَّارِعِ وَخُبْزاً لِلْجِيَاعِ،

11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it.

١١ هَكَذَا تَكُونُ كَلِمَتِي الَّتِي تَصْدُرُ عَنِّي مُثْمِرَةً دَائِماً، وَتُحَقِّقُ مَا أَرْغَبُ فِيهِ وَتُفْلِحُ بِمَا أَعْهَدُ بِهِ إِلَيْهَا.

12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap [their] hands.

١٢ لأَنَّكُمْ سَتَتْرُكُونَ بَابِلَ بِفَرَحٍ وَسَلامٍ فَتَتَرَنَّمُ الْجِبَالُ وَالتِّلالُ أَمَامَكُمْ بَهْجَةً وَتُصَفِّقُ أَشْجَارُ الْحَقْلِ بِأَيْدِيهَا غِبْطَةً،

13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign [that] shall not be cut off.

١٣ وَحَيْثُ كَانَ الشَّوْكُ وَالْقُرَّاصُ، تَنْمُو أَشْجَارُ السَّرْوِ وَالآسِ: فَيَكُونُ ذَلِكَ تَخْلِيداً لاسْمِ الرَّبِّ وَعَلامَةً أَبَدِيَّةً لَا تُمْحَى.
