< Isaiah 25 >

1 The LORD, you are my God. I will exalt you. I will praise your name, for you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago, in complete faithfulness and truth.
يَا رَبُّ أَنْتَ إِلَهِي، أُعَظِّمُكَ وَأَحْمَدُ اسْمَكَ لأَنَّكَ صَنَعْتَ عَجَائِبَ كُنْتُ قَد قَضَيْتَ بِها مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ، وَهِيَ حَقٌّ وَصِدْقٌ.١
2 For you have made a city into a heap, a fortified city into a ruin, a palace of the insolent is a city no more; it will never be rebuilt.
حَوَّلْتَ الْمَدِينَةَ إِلَى كَوْمَةِ رِكَامٍ، وَالْقَرْيَةَ الْحَصِينَةَ إِلَى أَطْلالٍ، وَلَنْ يَكُونَ قَصْرُ الْغُرَبَاءِ مَدِينَةً بَعْدُ، وَلَنْ يُبْنَى أَبَداً.٢
3 Therefore a strong people will glorify you. A city of awesome nations will fear you.
لِذَلِكَ يُمَجِّدُكَ شَعْبٌ قَوِيٌّ وَتَخْشَاكَ مُدُنٌ آهِلَةٌ بِأُمَمٍ فَظَّةٍ٣
4 For you have been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the blast of the dreaded ones is like a storm against the wall.
لأَنَّكَ كُنْتَ حِصْناً لِلْبَائِسِ، وَمَلاذاً مَنِيعاً لِلْمِسْكِينِ فِي ضِيقِهِ، وَمَلْجَأً لَهُ مِنَ الْعَاصِفَةِ، وَظِلًّا تَقِيهِ وَهَجَ الْحَرِّ، لأَنَّ نَفْخَةَ العُتَاةِ كَسَيْلٍ يَرْتَطِمُ بِحَائِطٍ.٤
5 As the heat in a dry place will you bring down the noise of strangers; as the heat by the shade of a cloud, the song of the dreaded ones will be brought low.
تُخْرِسُ ضَجِيجَ الْغُرَبَاءِ كَمَا تُطْفِئُ الْحَرَّ فِي أَرْضٍ جَافَّةٍ وَتُسْكِتُ غِنَاءَ العُتَاةِ كَمَا تُبَرِّدُ الْحَرَّ بِظِلِّ سَحَابَةٍ.٥
6 In this mountain, the LORD of hosts will make all peoples a feast of fat things, a feast of choice wines, of fat things full of marrow, of well refined choice wines.
فِي هَذَا الْجَبَلِ، فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، يُقِيمُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ مَأْدُبَةَ مُسَمَّنَاتٍ لِجَمِيعِ الشُّعُوبِ، مَأْدُبَةَ خَمْرٍ صَافِيَةٍ مُعَتَّقَةٍ، مَأْدُبَةَ لُحُومٍ وَأَمْخَاخٍ.٦
7 He will destroy in this mountain the surface of the covering that covers all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations.
وَيُمَزِّقُ فِي هَذَا الْجَبَلِ النِّقَابَ الْمَسْدُولَ عَلَى كُلِّ الشُّعُوبِ، وَالْحِجَابَ الَّذِي يُغَطِّي جَمِيعَ الأُمَمِ،٧
8 He has swallowed up death in victory. The LORD will wipe away tears from off all faces. He will take the reproach of his people away from off all the earth, for the LORD has spoken it.
وَيُبْتَلَعُ الْمَوْتُ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَيَمْسَحُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ الدُّمُوعَ الْمُنْهَمِرَةَ عَلَى الْوجُوهِ، وَيُزِيلُ عَارَ شَعْبِهِ مِنْ كُلِّ الأَرْضِ. هَذَا مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ الرَّبُّ.٨
9 It shall be said in that day, "Look, this is our God. We have waited for him, and he will save us. This is the LORD. We have waited for him. We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation."
وَيَقُولُونَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ: «هَا هُوَ إِلَهُنَا الَّذِي انْتَظَرْنَاهُ فَخَلَّصَنَا. هَذَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي انْتَظَرْنَاهُ نَبْتَهِجُ وَنَفْرَحُ بِخَلاصِهِ».٩
10 For in this mountain the hand of the LORD will rest. Moab will be trodden down in his place, even like straw is trodden down in a dunghill.
لأَنَّ يَدَ الرَّبِّ تَسْتَقِرُّ عَلَى هَذَا الْجَبَلِ وَيُوْطَأُ مُوآبُ فِي مَكَانِهِ كَمَا يُوْطَأُ التِّبْنُ فِي الطِّينِ.١٠
11 He will spread out his hands in its midst, like one who swims spreads out hands to swim, but his pride will be humbled together with the craft of his hands.
وَيَبْسِطُ يَدَيْهِ فِي وَسَطِ مُوآبَ كَمَا يَبْسِطُ السَّابِحُ يَدَيْهِ لِيَسْبَحَ، وَيَخْفِضُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ كِبْرِيَائِهِ وَمِنْ مَكَايِدِ يَدَيْهِ،١١
12 He has brought the high fortress of your walls down, laid low, and brought to the ground, even to the dust.
وَيَهْدِمُ أَسْوَارَهُ الْحَصِينَةَ الشَّامِخَةَ، وَيَخْفِضُهَا حَتَّى تَتَسَاوَى مَعَ التُّرَابِ.١٢
