Isaiah 33
1 Woe, spoiler! And you not spoiled, And treacherous! And they did not deal treacherously with you, When you finish, O spoiler, you are spoiled, When you finish dealing treacherously, They deal treacherously with you.
| وَيْلٌ لَكَ أَيُّهَا الْمُدَمِّرُ الَّذِي لَمْ تُدَمَّرْ بَعْدُ، وَالنَّاهِبُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَنْهَبُوكَ، فَعِنْدَمَا تَكُفُّ عَنِ التَّدْمِيرِ تُدَمَّرُ، وَحِينَ تَمْتَنِعُ عَنِ النَّهْبِ يَنْهَبُونَكَ. | ١ |
2 O YHWH, favor us, We have waited for You, Be their arm, in the mornings, Indeed, our salvation in time of adversity.
| يَا رَبُّ ارْحَمْنَا. إِيَّاكَ انْتَظَرْنَا، كُنْ عَضُدَنَا فِي الصَّبَاحِ، وَخَلاصَنَا فِي أَثْنَاءِ الْمِحْنَةِ. | ٢ |
3 From the voice of a multitude peoples have fled, From Your exaltation nations have been scattered.
| مِنْ صَوْتِ ضَجِيجِكَ هَرَبَتِ الشُّعُوبُ، وَمِنَ ارْتِفَاعِكَ تَبَدَّدَتِ الأُمَمُ، | ٣ |
4 And Your spoil has been gathered, A gathering of the caterpillar, As a running to and fro of locusts He is running on it.
| وَكَمَا يَلْتَهِمُ الْجَرَادُ كُلَّ مَا هُوَ أَخْضَرُ، هَكَذَا يُجْمَعُ سَلَبُكُمْ، وَيَتَوَاثَبُ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ كَتَوَاثُبِ الْجَنَادِبِ. | ٤ |
5 YHWH is set on high, for He is dwelling on high, He filled Zion [with] judgment and righteousness,
| الرَّبُّ مُتَعَظِّمٌ لأَنَّهُ سَاكِنٌ فِي الْعَلاءِ. يَمْلأُ صِهْيَوْنَ عَدْلاً وَحَقّاً. | ٥ |
6 And has been the steadfastness of your times, The strength of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge, Fear of YHWH—it [is] His treasure.
| هُوَ ضَمَانُ أَزْمَانِكَ وَوَفْرَةُ خَلاصٍ وَحِكْمَةٍ وَمَعْرِفَةٍ، وَتَكُونُ مَخَافَةُ الرَّبِّ كَنْزَهُ. | ٦ |
7 Behold, “Their Ariel,” they have cried outside, Messengers of peace weep bitterly.
| هَا رُسُلُكُمْ يَنُوحُونَ خَارِجاً، وَمُمَثِّلُو السَّلامِ يَبْكُونَ بِمَرَارَةٍ. | ٧ |
8 Highways have been desolated, He who passes along the path has ceased, He has broken covenant, He has despised enemies, He has not esteemed a man.
| أَقْفَرَتِ الطُّرُقُ وَخَلَتْ مِنْ عَابِرِي السَّبِيلِ، نَقَضَ الْعَهْدَ وَازْدَرَى شُهُودَهُ، وَلَمْ تَعُدْ لِلإِنْسَانِ قِيمَةٌ. | ٨ |
9 The land has mourned, languished, Lebanon has been confounded, Sharon has been withered as a wilderness, And Bashan and Carmel are shaking.
| نَاحَتِ الأَرْضُ وَذَوَتْ. خَجِلَ لُبْنَانُ وَذَبُلَ، وَصَارَ شَارُونُ كَالْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَنَفَضَ بَاشَانُ وَالْكَرْمَلُ عَنْهُمَا أَوْرَاقَهُمَا. | ٩ |
10 Now I arise, says YHWH, Now I am exalted, now I am lifted up.
| فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «الآنَ أَقُومُ، الآنَ أَنْهَضُ وَأَتَعَظَّمُ، | ١٠ |
11 You conceive chaff, you bear stubble; Your spirit—a fire [that] devours you.
| فَكُلُّ مَا بَذَلْتُمُوهُ مِنْ جَهْدٍ أَيُّهَا الأَشُورِيُّونَ لَا جَدْوَى مِنْهُ كَالْحَشِيْشِ وَالتِّبْنِ وَصَارَتْ أَنْفَاسُكُمْ نَاراً تَلْتَهِمُكُمْ. | ١١ |
12 And peoples have been [as] burnings of lime, Thorns, as sweepings, they burn with fire.
| وَتُصْبِحُ الشُّعُوبُ كَوَقُودِ الْكِلْسِ، كَأَشْوَاكٍ مُسْتَأْصَلَةٍ مُحْتَرِقَةٍ بِالنَّارِ». | ١٢ |
13 Hear, you far off, that which I have done, And know, you near ones, My might.
| اسْمَعُوا أَيُّهَا الْبَعِيدُونَ مَا صَنَعْتُ، وَأَنْتُمْ أَيُّهَا الْقَرِيبُونَ اعْرِفُوا قُوَّتِي. | ١٣ |
14 Sinners have been afraid in Zion, Trembling has seized the profane: Who dwells for us—consuming fire, Who dwells for us—burnings of the age?
| قَدِ ارْتَعَبَ الْخُطَاةُ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ، وَاسْتَوْلَتِ الرَّعْدَةُ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ، فَهَتَفُوا: مَنْ مِنَّا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَسْكُنَ مَعَ نَارٍ آكِلَةٍ؟ وَمَنْ مِنَّا يُمْكِنُهُ أَنْ يُقِيمَ فِي وَقَائِدَ أَبَدِيَّةٍ؟ | ١٤ |
15 Whoever is walking righteously, And is speaking uprightly, Kicking against gain of oppressions, Shaking his hands from taking hold on a bribe, Stopping his ear from hearing of blood, And shutting his eyes from looking on evil,
| السَّالِكُ فِي الْبِرِّ، وَالنَّاطِقُ بِالْحَقِّ، وَالنَّابِذُ رِبْحَ الظُّلْمِ، وَالنَّافِضُ يَدَيْهِ مِنْ قَبْضِ الرِّشْوَةِ، الصَّامُّ أُذُنَيْهِ عَنِ الاسْتِمَاعِ إِلَى مُؤَامَرَاتِ سَفْكِ الدِّمَاءِ، الْمُغْمِضُ عَيْنَيْهِ عَنِ التَّأَمُّلِ فِي الشَّرِّ، | ١٥ |
16 He inhabits high places, Strongholds of rock [are] his high tower, His bread has been given, his waters steadfast.
| هُوَ الَّذِي يَسْكُنُ فِي الْعَلاءِ، وَمَلْجَأُهُ مَعَاقِلُ الصُّخُورِ، يُؤَمَّنُ لَهُ خُبْزُهُ. وَيُكْفَلُ لَهُ مَاؤُهُ. | ١٦ |
17 Your eyes see a king in his beauty, They see a far-off land.
| سَتَشْهَدُ عَيْنَاكَ الْمَلِكَ فِي بَهَائِهِ، وَتُبْصِرُ أَرْضاً تَمْتَدُّ بَعِيداً. | ١٧ |
18 Your heart meditates [on] terror, Where [is] he who is counting? Where [is] he who is weighing? Where [is] he who is counting the towers?
| يَتَذَكَّرُ قَلْبُكَ أَزْمِنَةَ الرُّعْبِ فَتَتَسَاءَلُ: أَيْنَ الْكَاتِبُ الْحَاسِبُ؟ أَيْنَ جَابِي الْجِزْيَةِ؟ أَيْنَ مَنْ يُحْصِي الأَبْرَاجَ؟ | ١٨ |
19 You do not see the strong people, A people deeper of lip than to be understood, Of a scorned tongue, there is no understanding.
| لَنْ تَرَى الشَّعْبَ الشَّرِسَ فِيمَا بَعْدُ، الَّذِي يَتَكَلَّمُ لُغَةً أَجْنَبِيَّةً لَا تَفْهَمُهَا. | ١٩ |
20 See Zion, the city of our meetings, Your eyes see Jerusalem—a quiet habitation, A tent not taken down, its pins are not removed forever, And none of its cords are broken.
| التَفِتْ إِلَى صِهْيَوْنَ مَدِينَةِ أَعْيَادِنَا، فَتَكْتَحِلَ عَيْنَاكَ بِمَرْأَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، الْمَسْكَنِ الْمُطْمَئِنِّ وَالْخَيْمَةِ الثَّابِتَةِ الَّتِي لَا تُقْلَعُ أَوْتَادُهَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ وَلا تَنْقَطِعُ حِبَالُهَا | ٢٠ |
21 But YHWH [is] mighty for us there, A place of rivers—streams of broad sides, No ship with oars goes into it, And a mighty ship does not pass over it.
| هُنَاكَ يَكُونُ الرَّبُّ لَنَا بِجَلالِهِ مَكَانَ أَنْهَارٍ وَجَدَاوِلَ وَاسِعَةٍ لَا يَبْحُرُ فِيهَا قَارِبٌ ذُو مِجْدَافٍ، وَلا تَمْخُرُ فِيهَا سَفِينَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ، | ٢١ |
22 For YHWH, ours who is judging, YHWH our lawgiver, YHWH our King—He saves us.
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ هُوَ قَاضِينَا، الرَّبُّ هُوَ مُشْتَرِعُنَا، هُوَ مَلِكُنَا وَسَيُخَلِّصُنَا | ٢٢ |
23 Your ropes have been left, They do not correctly strengthen their mast, They have not spread out a sail, Then a prey of much spoil has been apportioned, The lame have taken spoil.
| لَقَدِ اسْتَرْخَتْ حِبَالُ أَشْرِعَتِكَ، فَلا يُمْكِنُهَا شَدُّ قَاعِدَةِ السَّارِيَةِ أَوْ نَشْرُ الشِّرَاعِ، حِينَئِذٍ نَقْسِمُ الْغَنَائِمَ الْوَفِيرَةَ. حَتَّى الْعُرْجُ يَنْهَبُونَ السَّلَبَ. | ٢٣ |
24 Nor does an inhabitant say, “I was sick”; The people dwelling in it [are] forgiven of [their] iniquity!
| لَنْ يَقُولَ مُقِيمٌ فِي صِهْيَوْنَ إِنَّهُ مَرِيضٌ، وَيَنْزِعُ الرَّبُّ إِثْمَ الشَّعْبِ السَّاكِنِ فِيهَا. | ٢٤ |
