Isaiah 44
1 Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:
| أَمَّا الآنَ فَاسْمَعْ يَا يَعْقُوبُ عَبْدِي، وَيَا إِسْرَائِيلُ الَّذِي اصْطَفَيْتُهُ. | ١ |
2 Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, [who] will help thee: Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.
| أَنَا خَالِقُكُمْ مِنَ الرَّحِمِ وَمُعِينُكُمْ، لَا تَخَفْ يَا عَبْدِي يَعْقُوبُ وَلا تَجْزَعِي يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ الَّتِي اخْتَرْتُهَا. | ٢ |
3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thy offspring:
| لأَنِّي سَأَسْكُبُ مَاءً عَلَى الأَرْضِ الْظَّمْأَى، وَأُجْرِي السُّيُولَ عَلَى التُّرْبَةِ الْيَابِسَةِ، وَأَفِيضُ بِرُوحِي عَلَى ذُرِّيَّتِكَ، وَبَرَكَاتِي عَلَى نَسْلِكَ. | ٣ |
4 And they shall spring up [as] among the grass, as willows by the watercourses.
| فَيَنْبُتُونَ بَيْنَ الْعُشْبِ مُزْهِرِينَ كَالْصَّفْصَافِ عِنْدَ مَجَارِي الْمِيَاهِ. | ٤ |
5 One shall say, I [am] the LORD'S; and another shall call [himself] by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe [with] his hand to the LORD, and surname [himself] by the name of Israel.
| وَيَقُولُونَ بِمِلْءِ أَفْوَاهِهِمْ: «أَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّبِّ. أَنَا ابْنُ يَعْقُوبَ». وَيَكْتُبُ عَلَى يَدِهِ اسْمَ اللهِ، وَبِاسْمِ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُلَقَّبُ. | ٥ |
6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I [am] the first, and I [am] the last; and besides me [there is] no God.
| هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفَادِيهِ: «أَنَا هُوَ الأَوَّلُ وَالآخِرُ، وَلا إِلَهَ غَيْرِي. | ٦ |
7 And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them show to them.
| مَنْ مِثْلِي فَلْيُخْبِرْ بِذَلِكِ، وَيُعْلِنْهُ وَيَعْرِضْ أَمَامِي أَحْدَاثَ الأَيَّامِ الْغَابِرَةِ مُنْذُ أَنْ أَنْشَأْتُ شَعْبِي الْقَدِيمَ، وَمَا سَيَجِيءُ بِهِ الْغَدُ، وَلْيَكْشِفْ عَنْ حَوَادِثِ الزَّمَنِ الْمُقْبِلِ. | ٧ |
8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared [it]? ye [are] even my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? verily [there is] no God; I know not [any].
| لَا تَجْزَعُوا وَلا تَفْزَعُوا، أَلَمْ أُخْبِرْكُمْ بِهَذَا وَأُنْبِئْكُمْ بِهِ مُنْذُ زَمَنٍ بَعِيدٍ؟ أَنْتُمْ شُهُودِي. هَلْ هُنَاكَ إِلْهٌ غَيْرِي؟ هَلْ هُنَاكَ صَخْرَةٌ أُخْرَى لَا عِلْمَ لِي بِوُجُودِهَا؟» | ٨ |
9 They that make a graven image [are] all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they [are] their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.
| كُلُّ صَانِعِي التَّمَاثِيلِ لَا جَدْوَى مِنْهُمْ، وَمُشْتَهَيَاتُهُمْ لَا طَائِلَ مِنْهَا. وَهُمْ شُهُودٌ عَلَيْهَا أَنَّهَا لَا تُبْصِرُ وَلا تَعْلَمُ لِكَيْ يَخْزَوْا. | ٩ |
10 Who hath formed a god, or cast a graven image [that] is profitable for nothing?
| مَنْ يُصَوِّرُ صَنَماً أَوْ يَسْبِكُ تِمْثَالاً لَا تُرْتَجَى مِنْهُ فَائِدَةٌ؟ | ١٠ |
11 Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the workmen, they [are] of men: let them all be assembled, let them stand up; [yet] they shall fear, [and] they shall be ashamed together.
| هَذَا وَأَمْثَالُهُ يَلْحَقُ بِهِمِ الْعَارُ لأَنَّ الصُّنَّاعَ لَيْسُوا سِوَى بَشَرٍ. فَلْيَجْتَمِعُوا إِذاً وَيَمْثُلُوا أَمَامِي، فَيَنْتَابَهُمْ رُعْبٌ وَيَخْزَوْا مَعاً. | ١١ |
12 The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms: yes, he is hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no water, and is faint.
| يَصْنَعُ الْحَدَّادُ فَأْساً بَعْدَ أَنْ يُقَلِّبَهَا فِي جَمَرَاتِ الْكُورِ وَيَطْرُقَهَا، وَيُشَكِّلَهَا بِذِرَاعِهِ الْقَوِيَّةِ. لَا يَعْبَأُ بِالْجُوعِ وَلا بِنُضُوبِ قُوَّتِهِ، وَلا بِالْعَطَشِ وَالإِعْيَاءِ. | ١٢ |
13 The carpenter stretcheth out [his] rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
| ثُمَّ يَأْتِي نَجَّارٌ فَيَتَنَاوَلُ قِطْعَةَ خَشَبٍ وَيَمُدُّ عَلَيْهَا الْخَيْطَ وَيُعَلِّمُهَا وَيُنَعِّمُهَا وَيَحْفُرُ عَلَيْهَا بِالبِرْكَارِ صُورَةَ إِنْسَانٍ سَاحِرِ الْجَمَالِ لِيَنْصُبَهُ صَنَماً فِي مَنْزِلٍ. | ١٣ |
14 He heweth down cedars for himself, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish [it].
| يَقْطَعُ شَجَرَةَ أَرْزٍ أَوْ يَخْتَارُ سِنْدِيَاناً أَوْ بَلُّوطاً. يَتْرُكُهَا تَنْمُو بَيْنَ أَشْجَارِ الْغَابَةِ. أَوْ يَزْرَعُ شَجَرَةَ صَنُوبَرٍ فَيُنْمِيهَا الْمَطَرُ. | ١٤ |
15 Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take of it, and warm himself; indeed he kindleth [it], and baketh bread; yes, he maketh a god, and worshipeth [it]; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down to it.
| ثُمَّ تُصْبِحُ وَقُوداً لِنِيرَانِ النَّاسِ: يَأْخُذُ بَعْضاً مِنْهَا لِيُدْفِئَ نَفْسَهُ، أَوْ يُوْقِدَهُ لِيَخْبِزَ خُبْزَهُ، أَوْ يَنْحَتَ مِنْهُ إِلَهاً يَعْبُدُهُ، يَصْنَعُ مِنْهُ تِمْثَالاً يَخُرُّ أَمَامَهُ سَاجِداً. | ١٥ |
16 He burneth part of it in the fire; with part of it he eateth flesh; he roasteth meat, and is satisfied: yes, he warmeth [himself], and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
| يُوْقِدُ نِصْفَهُ فِي النَّارِ وَعَلَى نِصْفِهِ الآخَرِ يَأْكُلُ لَحْماً، يَشْوِي شِوَاءً وَيَشْبَعُ، وَيُدْفِئُ نَفْسَهُ قَائِلاً: آهِ، أَنَا مُسْتَدْفِئٌ، وَأَرَى نَاراً. | ١٦ |
17 And the residue of it he maketh a god, [even] his graven image: he falleth down to it, and worshipeth [it], and prayeth to it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou [art] my god.
| وَيَصْنَعُ مَا تَبَقَّى مِنْهُ إِلَهاً، صَنَماً يَخُرُّ أَمَامَهُ سَاجِداً مُبْتَهِلاً إِلَيْهِ قَائِلاً: أَنْقِذْنِي. أَنْتَ إِلَهِي. | ١٧ |
18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; [and] their hearts, that they cannot understand.
| إِنَّهُمْ لَا يَفْقَهُونَ وَلا يُدْرِكُونَ، إِذْ غُشِيَ عَلَى عُيُونِهِمْ فَلا يُبْصِرُونَ، وَأُغْلِقَ عَلَى قُلُوبِهِمْ فَلا يَفْهَمُونَ. | ١٨ |
19 And none considereth in his heart, neither [is there] knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; I have also baked bread upon its coals; I have roasted flesh, and eaten [it]: and shall I make the residue of it an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?
| لَيْسَ مِنْ مُتَأَمِّلٍ أَوْ ذِي مَعْرِفَةٍ أَوْ إِدْرَاكٍ يَقُولُ: قَدْ أَحْرَقْتُ نِصْفَ الشَّجْرَةِ بِالنَّارِ وَخَبَزْتُ خُبْزِي عَلَى جَمْرَاتِهَا، شَوَيْتُ لَحْماً عَلَيْهَا وَأَكَلْتُهُ. أَفَأَصْنَعُ مِنْ بَقِيَّتِهَا رِجْساً وَأَسْجُدُ أَمَامَ قِطْعَةِ خَشَبٍ؟ | ١٩ |
20 He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, [Is there] not a lie in my right hand?
| لَكَأَنَّهُ يَأْكُلُ الرَّمَادَ! يَجْرِي وَرَاءَ سَرَابٍ وَيعْجَزُ عَنْ إِنْقَاذِ نَفْسِهِ أَوْ الاعْتِرَافِ أَنَّ الصَّنَمَ الَّذِي يُمْسِكُهُ بِيَدِهِ هُوَ مَحْضُ ضَلالٍ! | ٢٠ |
21 Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou [art] my servant: I have formed thee; thou [art] my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten by me.
| اذْكُرْ هَذِهِ الأُمُورَ يَا يَعْقُوبُ، لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ عَبْدِي يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، قَدْ جَبَلْتُكَ فَأَنْتَ عَبْدِي، وَأَنَا لَا أَنْسَاكَ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ. | ٢١ |
22 I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and as a cloud, thy sins: return to me; for I have redeemed thee.
| قَدْ مَحَوْتُ كَغَيْمَةٍ عَابِرَةٍ ذُنُوبَكَ، وَكَسَحَابَةٍ خَطَايَاكَ. ارْجِعْ تَائِباً إِلَيَّ لأَنِّي قَدْ فَدَيْتُكَ. | ٢٢ |
23 Sing, O ye heavens; for the LORD hath done [it]: shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel.
| تَرَنَّمِي أَيَّتُهَا السَّمَاوَاتُ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ أَنْجَزَ فِعْلَهُ. اهْتِفِي يَا أَعْمَاقَ الأَرْضِ، وَتَفَجَّرِي غِنَاءً يَا جِبَالُ وَيَا غَابَاتُ وَكُلُّ مَا فِيهَا مِنْ شَجَرٍ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدِ افْتَدَى يَعْقُوبَ وَتَمَجَّدَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢٣ |
24 Thus saith the LORD thy Redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, [I am] the LORD that maketh all [things]; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself:
| هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ فَادِيكَ وَجَابِلُكَ مِنَ الرَّحْمِ: «أَنَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ صَانِعُ كُلِّ الأَشْيَاءِ، الَّذِي نَشَرَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَحْدَهُ، وَبَسَطَ الأَرْضَ بِنَفْسِهِ. مَنْ كَانَ مَعِي حِينَذَاكَ؟ | ٢٤ |
25 That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise [men] backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
| يَكْشِفُ نِفَاقَ الْمُخَادِعِينَ، وَيَفْضَحُ حُمْقَ الْعَرَّافِينَ، وَيُبْطِلُ مَشُورَةَ الْحُكَمَاءِ تَسْفِيهاً لِعِلْمِهِمْ. | ٢٥ |
26 That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up her decayed places:
| أَنَا هُوَ مُتَمِّمُ كَلامِ عَبْدِهِ، وَمُحَقِّقُ مَشُورَةِ رُسُلِهِ، الْقَائِلُ عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ: لابُدَّ أَنْ تَعُودَ عَامِرَةً وَعَنْ مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا: لابُدَّ أَنْ تُبْنَى، وَأَنَا أُعِيدُ تَشْيِيدَ خِرَبِهَا. | ٢٦ |
27 That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
| الْقَائِلُ لِلُّجَّةِ: جِفِّي وَأَنَا أُنَشِّفُ أَنْهَارَكِ. | ٢٧ |
28 That saith of Cyrus, [He is] my shepherd, and [he] shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
| الْقَائِلُ عَنْ كُورُشَ: هُوَ رَاعِيَّ الَّذِي يُلَبِّي كُلَّ رَغْبَاتِي وَالْقَائِلُ عَنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ: لابُدَّ أَنْ تُبْنَى وَعَنِ الْهَيْكَلِ: لابُدَّ أَنْ يُؤَسَّسَ». | ٢٨ |
