Isaiah 54

1 “Shout for joy, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth in song and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,” says the LORD.

1 «تَرَنَّمِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْعَاقِرُ ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَلِدْ. أَشِيدِي بِٱلتَّرَنُّمِ أَيَّتُهَا ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَمْخَضْ، لِأَنَّ بَنِي ٱلْمُسْتَوْحِشَةِ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ بَنِي ذَاتِ ٱلْبَعْلِ، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ.

2 “Enlarge the site of your tent, stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not hold back. Lengthen your ropes and drive your stakes in deep.

2 أَوْسِعِي مَكَانَ خَيْمَتِكِ، وَلْتُبْسَطْ شُقَقُ مَسَاكِنِكِ. لَا تُمْسِكِي. أَطِيلِي أَطْنَابَكِ وَشَدِّدِي أَوْتَادَكِ،

3 For you will spread out to the right and left; your descendants will dispossess the nations and inhabit the desolate cities.

3 لِأَنَّكِ تَمْتَدِّينَ إِلَى ٱلْيَمِينِ وَإِلَى ٱلْيَسَارِ، وَيَرِثُ نَسْلُكِ أُمَمًا، وَيُعْمِرُ مُدُنًا خَرِبَةً.

4 Do not be afraid, for you will not be put to shame; do not be intimidated, for you will not be humiliated. For you will forget the shame of your youth and will remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.

4 لَا تَخَافِي لِأَنَّكِ لَا تَخْزَيْنَ، وَلَا تَخْجَلِي لِأَنَّكِ لَا تَسْتَحِينَ. فَإِنَّكِ تَنْسَيْنَ خِزْيَ صَبَاكِ، وَعَارُ تَرَمُّلِكِ لَا تَذْكُرِينَهُ بَعْدُ.

5 For your husband is your Maker—the LORD of Hosts is His name—the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; He is called the God of all the earth.

5 لِأَنَّ بَعْلَكِ هُوَ صَانِعُكِ، رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ ٱسْمُهُ، وَوَلِيُّكِ قُدُّوسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِلَهَ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ يُدْعَى.

6 For the LORD has called you back, like a wife deserted and wounded in spirit, like the rejected wife of one’s youth,” says your God.

6 لِأَنَّهُ كَٱمْرَأَةٍ مَهْجُورَةٍ وَمَحْزُونَةِ ٱلرُّوحِ دَعَاكِ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَكَزَوْجَةِ ٱلصِّبَا إِذَا رُذِلَتْ، قَالَ إِلَهُكِ.

7 “For a brief moment I forsook you, but with great compassion I will bring you back.

7 لُحَيْظَةً تَرَكْتُكِ، وَبِمَرَاحِمَ عَظِيمَةٍ سَأَجْمَعُكِ.

8 In a surge of anger I hid My face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD your Redeemer.

8 بِفَيَضَانِ ٱلْغَضَبِ حَجَبْتُ وَجْهِي عَنْكِ لَحْظَةً، وَبِإِحْسَانٍ أَبَدِيٍّ أَرْحَمُكِ، قَالَ وَلِيُّكِ ٱلرَّبُّ.

9 “For to Me this is like the days of Noah, when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth. So I have sworn that I will not be angry with you or rebuke you.

9 لِأَنَّهُ كَمِيَاهِ نُوحٍ هَذِهِ لِي. كَمَا حَلَفْتُ أَنْ لَا تَعْبُرَ بَعْدُ مِيَاهُ نُوحٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، هَكَذَا حَلَفْتُ أَنْ لَا أَغْضَبَ عَلَيْكِ وَلَا أَزْجُرَكِ.

10 Though the mountains may be removed and the hills may be shaken, My loving devotion will not depart from you, and My covenant of peace will not be broken,” says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

10 فَإِنَّ ٱلْجِبَالَ تَزُولُ، وَٱلْآكَامَ تَتَزَعْزَعُ، أَمَّا إِحْسَانِي فَلَا يَزُولُ عَنْكِ، وَعَهْدُ سَلَامِي لَا يَتَزَعْزَعُ، قَالَ رَاحِمُكِ ٱلرَّبُّ.

11 “O afflicted city, lashed by storms, without solace, surely I will set your stones in antimony and lay your foundations with sapphires.

11 «أَيَّتُهَا ٱلذَّلِيلَةُ ٱلْمُضْطَرِبَةُ غَيْرُ ٱلْمُتَعَزِّيَةِ، هَأَنَذَا أَبْنِي بِٱلْأُثْمُدِ حِجَارَتَكِ، وَبِٱلْيَاقُوتِ ٱلْأَزْرَقِ أُؤَسِّسُكِ،

12 I will make your pinnacles of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones.

12 وَأَجْعَلُ شُرَفَكِ يَاقُوتًا، وَأَبْوَابَكِ حِجَارَةً بَهْرَمَانِيَّةً، وَكُلَّ تُخُومِكِ حِجَارَةً كَرِيمَةً

13 Then all your sons will be taught by the LORD, and great will be their prosperity.

13 وَكُلَّ بَنِيكِ تَلَامِيذَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَسَلَامَ بَنِيكِ كَثِيرًا.

14 In righteousness you will be established, far from oppression, for you will have no fear. Terror will be far removed, for it will not come near you.

14 بِٱلْبِرِّ تُثَبَّتِينَ بَعِيدَةً عَنِ ٱلظُّلْمِ فَلَا تَخَافِينَ، وَعَنِ ٱلِٱرْتِعَابِ فَلَا يَدْنُو مِنْكِ.

15 If anyone attacks you, it is not from Me; whoever assails you will fall before you.

15 هَا إِنَّهُمْ يَجْتَمِعُونَ ٱجْتِمَاعًا لَيْسَ مِنْ عِنْدِي. مَنِ ٱجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْكِ فَإِلَيْكِ يَسْقُطُ.

16 Behold, I have created the craftsman who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its task; and I have created the destroyer to wreak havoc.

16 هَأَنَذَا قَدْ خَلَقْتُ ٱلْحَدَّادَ ٱلَّذِي يَنْفُخُ ٱلْفَحْمَ فِي ٱلنَّارِ وَيُخْرِجُ آلَةً لِعَمَلِهِ، وَأَنَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْمُهْلِكَ لِيَخْرِبَ.

17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their vindication is from Me,” declares the LORD.

17 «كُلُّ آلَةٍ صُوِّرَتْ ضِدَّكِ لَا تَنْجَحُ، وَكُلُّ لِسَانٍ يَقُومُ عَلَيْكِ فِي ٱلْقَضَاءِ تَحْكُمِينَ عَلَيْهِ. هَذَا هُوَ مِيرَاثُ عَبِيدِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَبِرُّهُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.
