< Isaiah 54 >

1 Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD.
تَرَنَّمِي أَيَّتُهَا الْعَاقِرُ الَّتِي لَمْ تُنْجِبْ، أَشِيدِي بِالتَّرَنُّمِ وَالْهُتَافِ يَا مَنْ لَمْ تُقَاسِي مِنَ الْمَخَاضِ، لأَنَّ أَبْنَاءَ الْمُسْتَوْحِشَةِ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ ذَاتِ الزَّوْجِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.١
2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations; spare not: lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes.
وَسِّعِي فَسْحَةَ خَيْمَتِكِ وَابْسُطِي سَتَائِرَ مَسَاكِنِكِ، لَا تُضَيِّقِي. أَطِيلِي حِبَالَ خَيْمَتِكِ وَرَسِّخِي أَوْتَادَكِ،٢
3 For thou shalt spread abroad on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall possess the nations, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
لأَنَّكِ سَتَمْتَدِّينَ يَمِيناً وَشِمَالاً، وَيَرِثُ نَسْلُكِ أُمَماً وَيُعْمِرُونَ الْمُدُنَ الْخَرِبَةَ،٣
4 Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and the reproach of thy widowhood shalt thou remember no more.
لَا تَجْزَعِي لأَنَّكِ لَنْ تَخْزَيْ، وَلا تَخْجَلِي لأَنَّهُ لَنْ يَلْحَقَ بِكِ عَارٌ، فَأَنْتِ سَتَنْسَيْنَ خِزْيَ صِبَاكِ، وَلَنْ تَذْكُرِي مِنْ بَعْدُ عَارَ تَرَمُّلِكِ.٤
5 For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name: and the Holy One of Israel is thy redeemer; the God of the whole earth shall he be called.
لأَنَّ صَانِعَكِ هُوَ زَوْجُكِ، وَالرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ اسْمُهُ، وَفَادِيكِ هُوَ قُدُّوسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي يُدْعَى إِلَهَ كُلِّ الأَرْضِ.٥
6 For the LORD hath called thee as a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, even a wife of youth, when she is cast off, saith thy God.
قَدْ دَعَاكِ الرَّبُّ كَزَوْجَةٍ مَهْجُورَةٍ مَكْرُوبَةِ الرُّوحِ، كَزَوْجَةِ عَهْدِ الصِّبَا الْمَنْبُوذَةِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.٦
7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
لَقَدْ هَجَرْتُكِ لَحْظَةً، وَلَكِنِّي بِمَرَاحِمَ كَثِيرَةٍ أَجْمَعُكِ.٧
8 In overflowing wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy redeemer.
فِي لَحْظَةِ غَضَبٍ جَامِحٍ حَجَبْتُ وَجْهِي عَنْكِ، وَلَكِنِّي بِحُبٍّ أَبَدِيٍّ أَرْحَمُكِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ فَادِيكِ.٨
9 For this is [as] the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth, so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
لأَنَّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ نَظِيرُ أَيَّامِ نُوحٍ، حِينَ أَقْسَمْتُ أَنْ لَا تَعُودَ مِيَاهُ طُوفَانٍ تَفِيضُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، كَذَلِكَ أَقْسَمْتُ أَنْ لَا أَغْضَبَ عَلَيْكِ أَوْ أَزْجُرَكِ.٩
10 For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall my covenant of peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.
إِنَّ الْجِبَالَ تَزُولُ وَالتِّلالَ تَتَزَحْزَحُ، أَمَّا رَحْمَتِي الثَّابِتَةُ فَلا تُفَارِقُكِ، وَعَهْدُ سَلامِي لَا يَتَزَعْزَعُ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ رَاحِمُكِ.١٠
11 O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will set thy stones in fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.
أَيَّتُهَا الْمَنْكُوبَةُ وَغَيْرُ الْمُتَعَزِّيَةِ، الَّتِي اقْتَلَعَتْهَا الْعَاصِفَةُ، هَا أَنَا أَبْنِي بِالأُثْمُدِ حِجَارَتَكِ، وَأُرْسِي أَسَاسَاتِكِ بِالْيَاقُوتِ الأَزْرَقِ،١١
12 And I will make thy pinnacles of rubies, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy border of pleasant stones.
وَأَصْنَعُ شُرَفَكِ مِنْ يَاقُوتٍ، وَأَبْوَابَكِ مِنْ حِجَارَةِ بَهْرَمَانَ، وَكُلَّ أَسْوَارِكِ مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ كَرِيمَةٍ١٢
13 And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
يَكُونُ جَمِيعُ أَبْنَائِكِ تَلامِيذَ الرَّبِّ، وَيَعُمُّهُمْ سَلامٌ عَظِيمٌ.١٣
14 In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near thee.
بِالْبِرِّ يَتِمُّ تَرْسِيخُكِ، وَتَكُونِينَ بَعِيدَةً عَنْ كُلِّ ضِيقٍ فَلَنْ تَخَافِي، وَنَائِيَةً عَنِ الرُّعْبِ لأَنَّهُ لَنْ يَقْتَرِبَ مِنْكِ.١٤
15 Behold, they may gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall because of thee.
فَإِذَا حَشَدَ عَدُوٌّ جُيُوشَهُ لِقِتَالِكُمْ، فَلَنْ يَكُونَ ذَلِكَ بِأَمْرٍ مِنِّي، لِهَذَا أَقْضِي عَلَى كُلِّ مَنْ يُعَادِيكُمْ وَأَحْمِيكُمْ١٥
16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
«هَا أَنَا قَدْ خَلَقْتُ الْحَدَّادَ الَّذِي يَنْفُخُ الْفَحْمَ فِي النَّارِ، وَيُخْرِجُ أَدَاةً يَعْمَلُ بِها، وَأَنَا الَّذِي خَلَقْتُ الْمُهْلِكَ الْمُدَمِّرَ.١٦
17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness which is of me, saith the LORD.
لَا يُحَالِفُ التَّوْفِيقُ أَيَّ سِلاحٍ صُنِعَ لِمُهَاجَمَتِكِ، وَكُلُّ لِسَانٍ يَتَّهِمُكِ أَمَامَ الْقَضَاءِ تُفْحِمِينَهُ، لأَنَّ هَذَا هُوَ مِيرَاثُ عَبِيدِ الرَّبِّ، وَبِرُّهُمُ الَّذِي أَنْعَمْتُ بِهِ عَلَيْهِمْ»، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.١٧
