< Isaiah 56 >

1 Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation [is] near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: أَجْرُوا الْحَقَّ، وَاصْنَعُوا الْعَدْلَ، لأَنَّ خَلاصِي بَاتَ وَشِيكاً وَبِرِّي حَانَ أَنْ يُسْتَعْلَنَ.١
2 Blessed [is] the man [that] doeth this, and the son of man [that] layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
طُوبَى لِمَنْ يُمَارِسُ هَذِهِ وَيَعْمَلُ بِها وَيُكَرِّمُ سُبُوتِي؛ وَطُوبَى لِمَنْ يَصُونُ يَدَهُ عَنِ ارْتِكَابِ الشَّرِّ.٢
3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I [am] a dry tree.
لَا يَقُلِ ابْنُ الْغَرِيبِ الْمُنْضَمُّ إِلَى الرَّبِّ: إِنَّ الرَّبَّ يَفْصِلُنِي عَنْ شَعْبِهِ. وَلا يَقُولَنَّ الْخَصِيُّ: أَنَا شَجَرَةٌ يَابِسَةٌ.٣
4 For thus saith the LORD to the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose [the things] that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ لِلْخِصْيَانِ الَّذِينَ يُحَافِظُونَ عَلَى سُبُوتِي، وَيَخْتَارُونَ مَا يَسُرُّنِي وَيَتَمَسَّكُونَ بِعَهْدِي:٤
5 Even to them will I give in my house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
أَهَبُهُمْ دَاخِلَ بَيْتِي وَأَسْوَارِي نَصِيباً وَاسْماً أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الْبَنِينَ وَالْبَنَاتِ. أُعْطِيهِمِ اسْماً مُخَلَّداً لَا يَنْقَرِضُ.٥
6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
وَأَمَّا أَبْنَاءُ الْغُرَبَاءِ الْمُنْضَمُّونَ إِلَى الرَّبِّ لِيَخْدِمُوهُ وَيُحِبُّوا اسْمَهُ لِيَكُونُوا لَهُ عَبِيداً، فَكُلُّ مَنْ يُحَافِظُ عَلَى السَّبْتِ مِنْهُمْ وَلا يَنْقُضُهُ، وَيَتَمَسَّكُ بِعَهْدِي،٦
7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices [shall be] accepted upon my altar; for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.
فَهَؤُلاءِ آتِي بِهِمْ إِلَى جَبَلِي الْمُقَدَّسِ وَأَفِيضُ عَلَيْهِمِ الْفَرَحَ فِي بَيْتِ صَلاتِي، وَتَكُونُ مُحْرَقَاتُهُمْ وَقَرَابِينُهُمْ مَقْبُولَةً عَلَى مَذْبَحِي، لأَنَّ بَيْتِي سَيُدْعَى بَيْتَ الصَّلاةِ لِجَمِيعِ الأُمَمِ.٧
8 The Lord GOD who gathereth the outcasts of Israel, Yet will I gather [others] to him, besides those that are gathered to him.
وَهَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي يَلُمُّ شَتَاتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ: سَأَجْمَعُ إِلَيْهِ آخَرِينَ بَعْدُ، فَضْلاً عَنِ الَّذِينَ جَمَعْتُهُمْ.٨
9 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yes, all ye beasts in the forest.
تَعَالَيْ يَا جَمِيعَ وُحُوشِ الصَّحْرَاءِ لِلالْتِهَامِ، وَيَا جَمِيعَ وُحُوشِ الْغَابِ أَيْضاً.٩
10 His watchmen [are] blind: they are all ignorant, they [are] all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
فَإِنَّ رُقَبَاءَهُمْ عُمْيٌ، وَكُلَّهُمْ جُهَّالٌ، وَكِلابٌ بُكْمٌ عَاجِزُونَ عَنِ النِّبَاحِ، حَالِمُونَ رَاقِدُونَ مُوْلَعُونَ بِالنَّوْمِ.١٠
11 Yes, [they are] greedy dogs [which] can never have enough, and they [are] shepherds [that] cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.
هُمْ كِلابٌ نَهِمَةٌ لَا تَعْرِفُ الشَّبَعَ، وَرُعَاةٌ أَيْضاً مُجَرَّدُونَ مِنَ الْفَهْمِ، كُلٌّ مَالَ إِلَى طَرِيقِهِ طَمَعاً فِي الرِّبْحِ،١١
12 Come ye, [say they], I will bring wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to-morrow shall be as this day, [and] much more abundant.
قَائِلِينَ: تَعَالَوْا نَأْتِي بِالْخَمْرِ، وَنَشْرَبُ مُسْكِراً حَتَّى الثُّمَالَةِ، فَالْغَدُ يَكُونُ مُمَاثِلاً لِهَذَا الْيَوْمِ، بَلْ أَعْظَمَ مِنْهُ.١٢
