Esias 48
1 Hear these [words], you house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come forth out of Juda, who swear by the name of the Lord God of Israel, making mention [of it, but] not with truth, nor with righteousness;
| اسْمَعُوا هَذَا يَا بَيْتَ يَعْقُوبَ الْمَدْعُوِّينَ بِاسْمِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الْخَارِجِينَ مِنْ صُلْبِ يَهُوذَا، الْحَالِفِينَ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ، الْمُسْتَشْهِدِينَ بِإِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَاطِلاً وَكَذِباً | ١ |
2 maintaining also the name of the holy city, and staying themselves on the God of Israel: the Lord of hosts is his name. The former things I have already declared;
| الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ، وَيَعْتَمِدُونَ عَلَى إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، الرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ: | ٢ |
3 and they that have proceeded out of my mouth, and it became well known; I wrought suddenly, and [the events] came to pass.
| قَدْ أَنْبَأْتُ بِالأُمُورِ الْغَابِرَةِ مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ، نَطَقْتُ بِها وَأَذَعْتُهَا، ثُمَّ فَجْأَةً صَنَعْتُهَا وَأَتْمَمْتُهَا | ٣ |
4 I know that you are stubborn, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your forehead brazen.
| لأَنِّي عَالِمٌ بِعِنَادِكَ، وَأَنَّ رَقَبَتَكَ ذَاتُ عَضَلٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَجَبْهَتَكَ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ. | ٤ |
5 And I told you of old what [should be] before it came upon you; I made it known to you, lest you should say, [My] idols have done [it] for me; and should say, [My] graven and molten images have commanded me.
| لِهَذَا أَنْبَأْتُ بِها مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ وَأَعْلَنْتُهَا لَكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَتَحَقَّقَ، لِئَلَّا تَقُولَ: إِنَّ وَثَنِي قَدْ صَنَعَهَا، وَتِمْثَالِي الْمَنْحُوتَ وَإِلَهِي الْمَسْبُوكَ قَدَ قَضَى بِها. | ٥ |
6 You have heard all this, but you have not known: yet I have made known to you the new things from henceforth, which are coming to pass, and you said not,
| قَدْ سَمِعْتَ، فَتَأَمَّلْ فِيهَا كُلِّهَا، أَلا تُقِرُّ بِها؟ مُنْذُ الآنَ وَصَاعِداً سَأُطْلِعُكَ عَلَى أُمُورٍ جَدِيدَةٍ، عَلَى أَسْرَارٍ لَمْ تَعْرِفْهَا مِنْ قَبْلُ. | ٦ |
7 Now they come to pass, and not formerly: and you heard not of them in former days: say not you, Yes, I know them.
| قَدْ خُلِقَتِ الآنَ وَلَيْسَ مُنْذُ زَمَنٍ بَعِيدٍ، لَمْ تَسْمَعْ بِها قَطُّ قَبْلَ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ، لِئَلَّا تَقُولَ: كُنْتُ أَعْرِفُهَا. | ٧ |
8 You have neither known, nor understood, neither from the beginning have I opened your ears: for I knew that you would surely deal treacherously, and would be called a transgressor even from the womb.
| أَنْتَ لَمْ تَسْمَعْ قَطُّ وَلَمْ تَعْرِفْ أَبَداً، فَمُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ لَمْ تَنْفَتِحْ أُذُنَاكَ، لأَنِّي عَرَفْتُ أَنَّكَ تَتَصَرَّفُ بِغَدْرٍ، وَمُنْذُ مَوْلِدِكَ دُعِيتَ مُتَمَرِّداً | ٨ |
9 For mine own sake will I show you my wrath, and will bring before you my glorious acts, that I may not utterly destroy you.
| وَلَكِنْ مِنْ أَجْلِ اسْمِي أُبَطِّئُ غَضَبِي، وَأَكْبَحُهُ عَنْكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ حَمْدِي حَتَّى لَا أَسْتَأْصِلَكَ. | ٩ |
10 Behold, I have sold you, [but] not for silver; but I have rescued you from the furnace of affliction.
| نَقَّيْتُكَ وَلَيْسَ كَالْفِضَّةِ وَامْتَحَنْتُكَ فِي كُورِ الأَلَمِ. | ١٠ |
11 For mine own sake I will do [this] for you, because my name is profaned; and I will not give my glory to another.
| قَدْ فَعَلْتُ هَذَا مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَاتِي، نَعَمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَاتِي إِذْ كَيْفَ يُدَنَّسُ اسْمِي؟ أَنَا لَا أُعْطِي مَجْدِي لِآخَرَ. | ١١ |
12 Hear me, O Jacob, and Israel whom I call; I am the first, and I endure for ever.
| اسْمَعْ لِي يَا يَعْقُوبُ، وَيَا إِسْرَائِيلُ الَّذِي دَعَوْتُهُ. أَنَا هُوَ الأَوَّلُ وَالآخِرُ. | ١٢ |
13 My hand also has founded the earth, and my right hand has fixed the sky: I will call them, and they shall stand together.
| قَدْ أَرْسَتْ يَدِي قَوَاعِدَ الأَرْضِ، وَبَسَطَتْ يَمِينِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، أَدْعُوهُنَّ فَيَمْثُلْنَ مَعاً. | ١٣ |
14 And all shall be gathered, and shall hear: who has told them these things? Out of love to you I have fulfilled your desire on Babylon, to abolish the seed of the Chaldeans.
| اجْتَمِعُوا كُلُّكُمْ وَأَنْصِتُوا: مَنْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَصْنَامِ أَنْبَأَ بِهَذِهِ؟ إِنَّ الرَّبَّ أَحَبَّ كُورَشَ، وَهُوَ يُنَفِّذُ قَضَاءَهُ عَلَى بَابِلَ وَيَكُونُ ذِرَاعُهُ عَلَى الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ. | ١٤ |
15 I have spoken, I have called, I have brought him, and made his way prosperous.
| لَقَدْ دَعَوْتُ أَنَا بِذَاتِي كُورُشَ وَعَهِدْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِمَا أُرِيدُ، وَسَأُكَلِّلُ أَعْمَالَهُ بِالْنَّجَاحِ | ١٥ |
16 Draw near to me, and hear you these words; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning: when it took place, there was I, and now the Lord, [even] the Lord, and his Spirit, has sent me.
| اقْتَرِبُوا مِنِّي وَاسْمَعُوا: مُنْذُ الْبَدْءِ لَمْ أَتَكَلَّمْ خُفْيَةً، وَلَدَى حُدُوثِهَا كُنْتُ حَاضِراً هُنَاكَ. وَالآنَ، قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ وَرُوحُهُ بِهَذِهِ الرِّسَالَةِ: | ١٦ |
17 Thus says the Lord that delivered you, the Holy One of Israel; I am your God, I have shown you how you should find the way wherein you should walk.
| هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ فَادِيكَ قُدُّوسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: أَنَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ الَّذِي يُعَلِّمُكَ مَا فِيهِ نَفْعٌ لَكَ، وَيَهْدِيكَ فِي النَّهْجِ الَّذِي عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تَسْلُكَهُ. | ١٧ |
18 And if you had listened to my commandments, [then] would your peace have been like a river, and your righteousness as a wave of the sea.
| لَيْتَكَ أَطَعْتَ وَصَايَايَ لَكَانَ سَلامُكَ كَالنَّهْرِ، وَبِرُّكَ كَأَمْوَاجِ الْبَحْرِ، | ١٨ |
19 Your seed also would have been as the sand, and the offspring of your belly as the dust of the ground: neither now shall you by any means be utterly destroyed, neither shall your name perish before me.
| وَلَكَانَتْ ذُرِّيَّتُكَ كَالرَّمْلِ، وَنَسْلُ أَحْشَائِكَ كَعَدَدِ حَبَّاتِهِ، فَلا يُسْتَأْصَلُ أَوْ يَنْقَرِضُ اسْمُهُ مِنْ أَمَامِي. | ١٩ |
20 Go forth of Babylon, you that flee from the Chaldeans: utter aloud a voice of joy, and let this be made known, proclaim it to the end of the earth; say you, The Lord has delivered his servant Jacob.
| اكْسِرُوا أَغْلالَ الأَسْرِ. ارْحَلُوا عَنْ بَابِلَ. ارْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ بِالْغِنَاءِ حَتَّى يَذِيعَ فِي أَرْجَاءِ الدُّنْيَا أَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ فَدَى عَبْدَهُ يَعْقُوبَ. | ٢٠ |
21 And if they shall thirst, he shall lead them through the desert; he shall bring forth water to them out of the rock: the rock shall be cloven, and the water shall flow forth, and my people shall drink.
| لَمْ يَعْطَشُوا عِنْدَمَا اجْتَازَ بِهِمْ عَبْرَ الصَّحْرَاءِ. فَجَّرَ لَهُمُ الْمِيَاهَ مِنَ الصَّخْرِ. شَقَّهُ فَتَدَفَّقَتْ مِنْهُ الْمِيَاهُ. | ٢١ |
22 There is no joy, says the Lord, to the ungodly.
| أَمَّا الأَشْرَارُ فَلا سَلامَ لَهُمْ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٢٢ |
