Isaiah 48
1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, Who are called by the name of Israel, And from the waters of Judah came out, Who are swearing by the name of Jehovah, And of the God of Israel make mention, Not in truth nor in righteousness.
| اسْمَعُوا هَذَا يَا بَيْتَ يَعْقُوبَ الْمَدْعُوِّينَ بِاسْمِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الْخَارِجِينَ مِنْ صُلْبِ يَهُوذَا، الْحَالِفِينَ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ، الْمُسْتَشْهِدِينَ بِإِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَاطِلاً وَكَذِباً | ١ |
2 For from the Holy City they have been called, And on the God of Israel been supported, Jehovah of Hosts [is] His name.
| الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ أَنْفُسَهُمْ أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ الْمُقَدَّسَةِ، وَيَعْتَمِدُونَ عَلَى إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، الرَّبِّ الْقَدِيرِ: | ٢ |
3 The former things from that time I declared, And from my mouth they have gone forth, And I proclaim them, Suddenly I have done, and it cometh.
| قَدْ أَنْبَأْتُ بِالأُمُورِ الْغَابِرَةِ مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ، نَطَقْتُ بِها وَأَذَعْتُهَا، ثُمَّ فَجْأَةً صَنَعْتُهَا وَأَتْمَمْتُهَا | ٣ |
4 From my knowing that thou art obstinate, And a sinew of iron thy neck, And thy forehead brass,
| لأَنِّي عَالِمٌ بِعِنَادِكَ، وَأَنَّ رَقَبَتَكَ ذَاتُ عَضَلٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ وَجَبْهَتَكَ مِنْ نُحَاسٍ. | ٤ |
5 And I declare to thee from that time, Before it cometh I have caused thee to hear, Lest thou say, 'Mine idol hath done them, And my graven image, And my molten image did command them.
| لِهَذَا أَنْبَأْتُ بِها مُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ وَأَعْلَنْتُهَا لَكَ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَتَحَقَّقَ، لِئَلَّا تَقُولَ: إِنَّ وَثَنِي قَدْ صَنَعَهَا، وَتِمْثَالِي الْمَنْحُوتَ وَإِلَهِي الْمَسْبُوكَ قَدَ قَضَى بِها. | ٥ |
6 Thou hast heard, see the whole of it, And ye, do ye not declare? I have caused thee to hear new things from this time, And things reserved that ye knew not.
| قَدْ سَمِعْتَ، فَتَأَمَّلْ فِيهَا كُلِّهَا، أَلا تُقِرُّ بِها؟ مُنْذُ الآنَ وَصَاعِداً سَأُطْلِعُكَ عَلَى أُمُورٍ جَدِيدَةٍ، عَلَى أَسْرَارٍ لَمْ تَعْرِفْهَا مِنْ قَبْلُ. | ٦ |
7 Now they have been produced and not from that time, Yea, before the day, and thou hast not heard them, Lest thou say, 'Lo, I have known them.'
| قَدْ خُلِقَتِ الآنَ وَلَيْسَ مُنْذُ زَمَنٍ بَعِيدٍ، لَمْ تَسْمَعْ بِها قَطُّ قَبْلَ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ، لِئَلَّا تَقُولَ: كُنْتُ أَعْرِفُهَا. | ٧ |
8 Yea, thou hast not heard, Yea, thou hast not known, Yea, from that time not opened hath thine ear, For I have known thou dealest treacherously, And 'Transgressor from the belly,' One is crying to thee.
| أَنْتَ لَمْ تَسْمَعْ قَطُّ وَلَمْ تَعْرِفْ أَبَداً، فَمُنْذُ الْقِدَمِ لَمْ تَنْفَتِحْ أُذُنَاكَ، لأَنِّي عَرَفْتُ أَنَّكَ تَتَصَرَّفُ بِغَدْرٍ، وَمُنْذُ مَوْلِدِكَ دُعِيتَ مُتَمَرِّداً | ٨ |
9 For My name's sake I defer Mine anger, And My praise I restrain for thee, So as not to cut thee off.
| وَلَكِنْ مِنْ أَجْلِ اسْمِي أُبَطِّئُ غَضَبِي، وَأَكْبَحُهُ عَنْكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ حَمْدِي حَتَّى لَا أَسْتَأْصِلَكَ. | ٩ |
10 Lo, I have refined thee, and not with silver, I have chosen thee in a furnace of affliction.
| نَقَّيْتُكَ وَلَيْسَ كَالْفِضَّةِ وَامْتَحَنْتُكَ فِي كُورِ الأَلَمِ. | ١٠ |
11 For My sake, for Mine own sake, I do [it], For how is it polluted? And Mine honour to another I give not.
| قَدْ فَعَلْتُ هَذَا مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَاتِي، نَعَمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَاتِي إِذْ كَيْفَ يُدَنَّسُ اسْمِي؟ أَنَا لَا أُعْطِي مَجْدِي لِآخَرَ. | ١١ |
12 Hearken to me, O Jacob, and Israel, My called one, I [am] He, I [am] first, and I [am] last;
| اسْمَعْ لِي يَا يَعْقُوبُ، وَيَا إِسْرَائِيلُ الَّذِي دَعَوْتُهُ. أَنَا هُوَ الأَوَّلُ وَالآخِرُ. | ١٢ |
13 Also, My hand hath founded earth, And My right hand stretched out the heavens, I am calling unto them, they stand together.
| قَدْ أَرْسَتْ يَدِي قَوَاعِدَ الأَرْضِ، وَبَسَطَتْ يَمِينِي السَّمَاوَاتِ، أَدْعُوهُنَّ فَيَمْثُلْنَ مَعاً. | ١٣ |
14 Be gathered all of you, and hear, Who among them did declare these things? Jehovah hath loved him, He doth His pleasure on Babylon, And His arm [is on] the Chaldeans.
| اجْتَمِعُوا كُلُّكُمْ وَأَنْصِتُوا: مَنْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَصْنَامِ أَنْبَأَ بِهَذِهِ؟ إِنَّ الرَّبَّ أَحَبَّ كُورَشَ، وَهُوَ يُنَفِّذُ قَضَاءَهُ عَلَى بَابِلَ وَيَكُونُ ذِرَاعُهُ عَلَى الْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ. | ١٤ |
15 I — I have spoken, yea, I have called him, I have brought him in, And he hath made prosperous his way.
| لَقَدْ دَعَوْتُ أَنَا بِذَاتِي كُورُشَ وَعَهِدْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِمَا أُرِيدُ، وَسَأُكَلِّلُ أَعْمَالَهُ بِالْنَّجَاحِ | ١٥ |
16 Come ye near unto me, hear this, Not from the beginning in secret spake I, From the time of its being, there [am] I, And now the Lord Jehovah hath sent me, and His Spirit.
| اقْتَرِبُوا مِنِّي وَاسْمَعُوا: مُنْذُ الْبَدْءِ لَمْ أَتَكَلَّمْ خُفْيَةً، وَلَدَى حُدُوثِهَا كُنْتُ حَاضِراً هُنَاكَ. وَالآنَ، قَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ وَرُوحُهُ بِهَذِهِ الرِّسَالَةِ: | ١٦ |
17 Thus said Jehovah, thy redeemer, The Holy One of Israel, 'I [am] Jehovah thy God, teaching thee to profit, Causing thee to tread in the way thou goest.
| هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ فَادِيكَ قُدُّوسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: أَنَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ الَّذِي يُعَلِّمُكَ مَا فِيهِ نَفْعٌ لَكَ، وَيَهْدِيكَ فِي النَّهْجِ الَّذِي عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تَسْلُكَهُ. | ١٧ |
18 O that thou hadst attended to My commands, Then as a river is thy peace, And thy righteousness as billows of the sea,
| لَيْتَكَ أَطَعْتَ وَصَايَايَ لَكَانَ سَلامُكَ كَالنَّهْرِ، وَبِرُّكَ كَأَمْوَاجِ الْبَحْرِ، | ١٨ |
19 And as sand is thy seed, And the offspring of thy bowels as its gravel, Not cut off nor destroyed his name before Me.
| وَلَكَانَتْ ذُرِّيَّتُكَ كَالرَّمْلِ، وَنَسْلُ أَحْشَائِكَ كَعَدَدِ حَبَّاتِهِ، فَلا يُسْتَأْصَلُ أَوْ يَنْقَرِضُ اسْمُهُ مِنْ أَمَامِي. | ١٩ |
20 Go out from Babylon, flee from the Chaldeans, With a voice of singing declare, Cause ye this to be heard, Bring it forth unto the end of the earth, Say, Redeemed hath Jehovah His servant Jacob.
| اكْسِرُوا أَغْلالَ الأَسْرِ. ارْحَلُوا عَنْ بَابِلَ. ارْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ بِالْغِنَاءِ حَتَّى يَذِيعَ فِي أَرْجَاءِ الدُّنْيَا أَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ فَدَى عَبْدَهُ يَعْقُوبَ. | ٢٠ |
21 And they have not thirsted in waste places, He hath caused them to go on, Waters from a rock he hath caused to flow to them, Yea, he cleaveth a rock, and flow do waters.
| لَمْ يَعْطَشُوا عِنْدَمَا اجْتَازَ بِهِمْ عَبْرَ الصَّحْرَاءِ. فَجَّرَ لَهُمُ الْمِيَاهَ مِنَ الصَّخْرِ. شَقَّهُ فَتَدَفَّقَتْ مِنْهُ الْمِيَاهُ. | ٢١ |
22 There is no peace, said Jehovah, to the wicked!
| أَمَّا الأَشْرَارُ فَلا سَلامَ لَهُمْ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ٢٢ |
