< Isaiah 61 >

1 The Spirit of YHWH is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and an opening of the eyes to the blind;
رُوحُ ٱلسَّيِّدِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيَّ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مَسَحَنِي لِأُبَشِّرَ ٱلْمَسَاكِينَ، أَرْسَلَنِي لِأَعْصِبَ مُنْكَسِرِي ٱلْقَلْبِ، لِأُنَادِيَ لِلْمَسْبِيِّينَ بِٱلْعِتْقِ، وَلِلْمَأْسُورِينَ بِٱلْإِطْلَاقِ.١
2 to proclaim the year of YHWH's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn;
لِأُنَادِيَ بِسَنَةٍ مَقْبُولَةٍ لِلرَّبِّ، وَبِيَوْمِ ٱنْتِقَامٍ لِإِلَهِنَا. لِأُعَزِّيَ كُلَّ ٱلنَّائِحِينَ.٢
3 to appoint to those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of YHWH, that he may be glorified.
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.٣
4 They shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
وَيَبْنُونَ ٱلْخِرَبَ ٱلْقَدِيمَةَ. يُقِيمُونَ ٱلْمُوحِشَاتِ ٱلْأُوَلَ، وَيُجَدِّدُونَ ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلْخَرِبَةَ، مُوحِشَاتِ دَوْرٍ فَدَوْرٍ.٤
5 Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and foreigners shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
وَيَقِفُ ٱلْأَجَانِبُ وَيَرْعَوْنَ غَنَمَكُمْ، وَيَكُونُ بَنُو ٱلْغَرِيبِ حَرَّاثِيكُمْ وَكَرَّامِيكُمْ.٥
6 But you shall be named the priests of YHWH; men will call you the ministers of our God: you will eat the wealth of the nations, and you will boast in their glory.
أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَتُدْعَوْنَ كَهَنَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ، تُسَمَّوْنَ خُدَّامَ إِلَهِنَا. تَأْكُلُونَ ثَرْوَةَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، وَعَلَى مَجْدِهِمْ تَتَأَمَّرُونَ.٦
7 Instead of your shame you shall have double; and instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess double; everlasting joy shall be to them.
عِوَضًا عَنْ خِزْيِكُمْ ضِعْفَانِ، وَعِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلْخَجَلِ يَبْتَهِجُونَ بِنَصِيبِهِمْ. لِذَلِكَ يَرِثُونَ فِي أَرْضِهِمْ ضِعْفَيْنِ. بَهْجَةٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ تَكُونُ لَهُمْ.٧
8 "For I, YHWH, love justice, and I hate robbery with iniquity; and I will give them their recompense in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
«لِأَنِّي أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُحِبُّ ٱلْعَدْلِ، مُبْغِضُ ٱلْمُخْتَلِسِ بِٱلظُّلْمِ. وَأَجْعَلُ أُجْرَتَهُمْ أَمِينَةً، وَأَقْطَعُ لَهُمْ عَهْدًا أَبَدِيًّا.٨
9 Their offspring shall be known among the nations, and their descendants among the peoples; all who see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the offspring which YHWH has blessed."
وَيُعْرَفُ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ نَسْلُهُمْ، وَذُرِّيَّتُهُمْ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. كُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَرَوْنَهُمْ يَعْرِفُونَهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ نَسْلٌ بَارَكَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ».٩
10 I will greatly rejoice in YHWH, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation, he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
فَرَحًا أَفْرَحُ بِٱلرَّبِّ. تَبْتَهِجُ نَفْسِي بِإِلَهِي، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ أَلْبَسَنِي ثِيَابَ ٱلْخَلَاصِ. كَسَانِي رِدَاءَ ٱلْبِرِّ، مِثْلَ عَرِيسٍ يَتَزَيَّنُ بِعِمَامَةٍ، وَمِثْلَ عَرُوسٍ تَتَزَيَّنُ بِحُلِيِّهَا.١٠
11 For as the earth brings forth its bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so YHWH will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ تُخْرِجُ نَبَاتَهَا، وَكَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْجَنَّةَ تُنْبِتُ مَزْرُوعَاتِهَا، هَكَذَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ يُنْبِتُ بِرًّا وَتَسْبِيحًا أَمَامَ كُلِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ.١١
