| 1 في تلك الايام مرض حزقيا للموت. فجاء اليه اشعياء بن آموص النبي وقال له. هكذا يقول الرب اوص بيتك لانك تموت ولا تعيش. | 1 In those days Hezekiah became sick and was at the point of death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, "Thus says the LORD: Set your house in order; for you shall die, you shall not recover." |
| 2 فوجه حزقيا وجهه الى الحائط وصلى الى الرب | 2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the LORD, |
| 3 وقال. آه يا رب اذكر كيف سرت امامك بالامانة وبقلب سليم وفعلت الحسن في عينيك. وبكى حزقيا بكاء عظيما | 3 and said, "Remember now, O LORD, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in faithfulness and with a whole heart, and have done what is good in thy sight." And Hezekiah wept bitterly. |
| 4 فصار قول الرب الى اشعياء قائلا | 4 Then the word of the LORD came to Isaiah: |
| 5 اذهب وقل لحزقيا. هكذا يقول الرب اله داود ابيك. قد سمعت صلاتك. قد رايت دموعك. هانذا اضيف الى ايامك خمس عشرة سنة. | 5 "Go and say to Hezekiah, Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father: I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears; behold, I will add fifteen years to your life. |
| 6 ومن يد ملك اشور انقذك وهذه المدينة. واحامي عن هذه المدينة. | 6 I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and defend this city. |
| 7 وهذه لك العلامة من قبل الرب على ان الرب يفعل هذا الأمر الذي تكلم به | 7 "This is the sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he has promised: |
| 8 هانذا ارجع ظل الدرجات الذي نزل في درجات آحاز بالشمس عشر درجات الى الوراء. فرجعت الشمس عشر درجات في الدرجات التي نزلتها | 8 Behold, I will make the shadow cast by the declining sun on the dial of Ahaz turn back ten steps." So the sun turned back on the dial the ten steps by which it had declined. |
| 9 كتابة لحزقيا ملك يهوذا اذ مرض وشفي من مرضه. | 9 A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, after he had been sick and had recovered from his sickness: |
| 10 انا قلت. في عزّ ايامي اذهب الى ابواب الهاوية. قد اعدمت بقية سنيّ. | 10 I said, In the noontide of my days I must depart; I am consigned to the gates of Sheol for the rest of my years. |
| 11 قلت لا ارى الرب. الرب في ارض الاحياء. لا انظر انسانا بعد مع سكان الفانية. | 11 I said, I shall not see the LORD in the land of the living; I shall look upon man no more among the inhabitants of the world. |
| 12 مسكني قد انقلع وانتقل عني كخيمة الراعي. لففت كالحائك حياتي. من النول يقطعني. النهار والليل تفنيني. | 12 My dwelling is plucked up and removed from me like a shepherd's tent; like a weaver I have rolled up my life; he cuts me off from the loom; from day to night thou dost bring me to an end; |
| 13 صرخت الى الصباح. كالاسد هكذا يهشم جميع عظامي. النهار والليل تفنيني. | 13 I cry for help until morning; like a lion he breaks all my bones; from day to night thou dost bring me to an end. |
| 14 كسنونة مزقزقة هكذا اصيح. اهدر كحمامة. قد ضعفت عيناي ناظرة الى العلاء يا رب قد تضايقت. كن لي ضامنا. | 14 Like a swallow or a crane I clamor, I moan like a dove. My eyes are weary with looking upward. O Lord, I am oppressed; be thou my security! |
| 15 بماذا اتكلم فانه قال لي وهو قد فعل. اتمشى متمهلا كل سنيّ من اجل مرارة نفسي. | 15 But what can I say? For he has spoken to me, and he himself has done it. All my sleep has fled because of the bitterness of my soul. |
| 16 ايها السيد بهذه يحيون وبها كل حياة روحي فتشفيني وتحييني. | 16 O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these is the life of my spirit. Oh, restore me to health and make me live! |
| 17 هوذا للسلامة قد تحولت لي المرارة وانت تعلقت بنفسي من وهدة الهلاك فانك طرحت وراء ظهرك كل خطاياي. | 17 Lo, it was for my welfare that I had great bitterness; but thou hast held back my life from the pit of destruction, for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back. |
| 18 لان الهاوية لا تحمدك. الموت لا يسبحك. لا يرجو الهابطون الى الجب امانتك. | 18 For Sheol cannot thank thee, death cannot praise thee; those who go down to the pit cannot hope for thy faithfulness. |
| 19 الحي الحي هو يحمدك كما انا اليوم. الاب يعرّف البنين حقك. | 19 The living, the living, he thanks thee, as I do this day; the father makes known to the children thy faithfulness. |
| 20 الرب لخلاصي. فنعزف باوتارنا كل ايام حياتنا في بيت الرب | 20 The LORD will save me, and we will sing to stringed instruments all the days of our life, at the house of the LORD. |
| 21 وكان اشعياء قد قال لياخذوا قرص تين ويضمدوه على الدّبل فيبرأ | 21 Now Isaiah had said, "Let them take a cake of figs, and apply it to the boil, that he may recover." |
| 22 وحزقيا قال ما هي العلامة اني اصعد الى بيت الرب | 22 Hezekiah also had said, "What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the LORD?" |
