Isaiah 61

1 The Spirit of the Lord Eternal is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to announce good tidings unto the meek: he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim to captives Liberty, and to prisoners Release;

١ رُوحُ ٱلسَّيِّدِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيَّ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مَسَحَنِي لِأُبَشِّرَ ٱلْمَسَاكِينَ، أَرْسَلَنِي لِأَعْصِبَ مُنْكَسِرِي ٱلْقَلْبِ، لِأُنَادِيَ لِلْمَسْبِيِّينَ بِٱلْعِتْقِ، وَلِلْمَأْسُورِينَ بِٱلْإِطْلَاقِ.

2 To proclaim a year of favor of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all mourners;

٢ لِأُنَادِيَ بِسَنَةٍ مَقْبُولَةٍ لِلرَّبِّ، وَبِيَوْمِ ٱنْتِقَامٍ لِإِلَهِنَا. لِأُعَزِّيَ كُلَّ ٱلنَّائِحِينَ.

3 To grant unto the mourners of Zion, —to give unto them ornament in the place of ashes, oil of gladness in the place of mourning, garments of praise in the place of a grieved spirit; that they may be called, Oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified.

٣ لِأَجْعَلَ لِنَائِحِي صِهْيَوْنَ، لِأُعْطِيَهُمْ جَمَالًا عِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلرَّمَادِ، وَدُهْنَ فَرَحٍ عِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلنَّوْحِ، وَرِدَاءَ تَسْبِيحٍ عِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْيَائِسَةِ، فَيُدْعَوْنَ أَشْجَارَ ٱلْبِرِّ، غَرْسَ ٱلرَّبِّ لِلتَّمْجِيدِ.

4 And they shall build up the ancient ruins, desolate places of former times shall they raise up, and they shall renew ruined cities, the desolate places of many generations.

٤ وَيَبْنُونَ ٱلْخِرَبَ ٱلْقَدِيمَةَ. يُقِيمُونَ ٱلْمُوحِشَاتِ ٱلْأُوَلَ، وَيُجَدِّدُونَ ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلْخَرِبَةَ، مُوحِشَاتِ دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ.

5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your ploughmen and your vintners.

٥ وَيَقِفُ ٱلْأَجَانِبُ وَيَرْعَوْنَ غَنَمَكُمْ، وَيَكُونُ بَنُو ٱلْغَرِيبِ حَرَّاثِيكُمْ وَكَرَّامِيكُمْ.

6 But ye, ye shall be called, Priests of the Lord; Ministers of our God, shall be said unto you: the wealth of nations shall ye consume, and in their glory shall ye be placed as possessors.

٦ أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَتُدْعَوْنَ كَهَنَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ، تُسَمَّوْنَ خُدَّامَ إِلَهِنَا. تَأْكُلُونَ ثَرْوَةَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَعَلَى مَجْدِهِمْ تَتَأَمَّرُونَ.

7 In the place of your twofold shame, —and the confusion of which they loudly complained as their portion: therefore in their land shall they possess a twofold [portion]; everlasting joy shall be granted unto them.

٧ عِوَضًا عَنْ خِزْيِكُمْ ضِعْفَانِ، وَعِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلْخَجَلِ يَبْتَهِجُونَ بِنَصِيبِهِمْ. لِذَلِكَ يَرِثُونَ فِي أَرْضِهِمْ ضِعْفَيْنِ. بَهْجَةٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ تَكُونُ لَهُمْ.

8 For I the Lord love justice, I hate robbery with burnt-offering: therefore will I give them the recompense of their work in truth, and an everlasting covenant will I make with them.

٨ «لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُحِبُّ ٱلْعَدْلِ، مُبْغِضُ ٱلْمُخْتَلِسِ بِٱلظُّلْمِ. وَأَجْعَلُ أُجْرَتَهُمْ أَمِينَةً، وَأَقْطَعُ لَهُمْ عَهْدًا أَبَدِيًّا.

9 And among the nations shall their seed be known, and their offspring in the midst of the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed whom the Lord hath blessed.

٩ وَيُعْرَفُ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ نَسْلُهُمْ، وَذُرِّيَّتُهُمْ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. كُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَرَوْنَهُمْ يَعْرِفُونَهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ نَسْلٌ بَارَكَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

10 I will be greatly glad in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, with the mantle of righteousness hath he enveloped me, as a bridegroom decketh himself with elegant attire, and as a bride adorneth herself with her bridal array.

١٠ فَرَحًا أَفْرَحُ بِٱلرَّبِّ. تَبْتَهِجُ نَفْسِي بِإِلَهِي، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ أَلْبَسَنِي ثِيَابَ ٱلْخَلَاصِ. كَسَانِي رِدَاءَ ٱلْبِرِّ، مِثْلَ عَرِيسٍ يَتَزَيَّنُ بِعِمَامَةٍ، وَمِثْلَ عَرُوسٍ تَتَزَيَّنُ بِحُلِيِّهَا.

11 For, as the earth bringeth forth her growth, and as a garden causeth what is sown therein to spring forth: thus will the Lord Eternal cause righteousness and praise to spring forth in the presence of all the nations.

١١ لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ تُخْرِجُ نَبَاتَهَا، وَكَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْجَنَّةَ تُنْبِتُ مَزْرُوعَاتِهَا، هَكَذَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ يُنْبِتُ بِرًّا وَتَسْبِيحًا أَمَامَ كُلِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ.
