Isaiah 13

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 The burden of Babylon which Isaiah, the son of Amoz, saw.	1 وحي من جهة بابل رآه اشعياء بن آموص
2 Over the foggy mountain lift up a sign! Raise the voice, lift up the hand, and let the rulers enter through the gates!	2 اقيموا راية على جبل اقرع. ارفعوا صوتا اليهم. اشيروا باليد ليدخلوا ابواب العتاة.
3 In my wrath, I commanded my sanctified ones, and I called my strong ones, those who exult in my glory.	3 انا اوصيت مقدسي ودعوت ابطالي لاجل غضبي مفتخري عظمتي.
4 On the mountains, there is the voice of a multitude, as if of a numerous people, a voice with the sound of kings, of nations gathered together. For the Lord of hosts has given orders to soldiers of war,	4 صوت جمهور على الجبال شبه قوم كثيرين. صوت ضجيج ممالك امم مجتمعة. رب الجنود يعرض جيش الحرب.
5 to those who are arriving from a far off land, from the heights of the heavens. It is the Lord and the instruments of his fury, so that he may bring ruin to all the earth.	5 يأتون من ارض بعيدة من اقصى السموات الرب وادوات سخطه ليخرب كل الارض
6 Wail aloud! For the day of the Lord draws near! It will arrive like a devastation from the Lord.	6 ولولوا لان يوم الرب قريب قادم كخراب من القادر على كل شيء.
7 Because of it, every hand will fail, and every heart of man will waste away and be crushed.	7 لذلك ترتخي كل الايادي ويذوب كل قلب انسان
8 Writhing and pain will seize them. They will be in pain, like a woman in labor. Each one will appear stupefied to his neighbor. Their countenances will be like faces which have been burned up.	8 فيرتاعون. تاخذهم اوجاع ومخاض يتلوون كوالدة. يبهتون بعضهم الى بعض. وجوههم وجوه لهيب
9 Behold, the day of the Lord approaches: a cruel day, full of indignation and wrath and fury, which will place the earth in solitude and crush the sinners from it.	9 هوذا يوم الرب قادم قاسيا بسخط وحمو غضب ليجعل الارض خرابا ويبيد منها خطاتها.
10 For the stars of the heavens, in their splendor, will not display their light. The sun will be obscured at its rising, and the moon will not shine in her brightness.	10 فان نجوم السموات وجبابرتها لا تبرز نورها. تظلم الشمس عند طلوعها والقمر لا يلمع بضوءه.
11 And I will act against the evils of the world, and against the impious for their iniquity. And I will cause the pride of the unfaithful to cease, and I will bring down the arrogance of the strong.	11 واعاقب المسكونة على شرها والمنافقين على اثمهم وابطل تعظم المستكبرين واضع تجبر العتاة.
12 A man will be more precious than gold, and mankind will become like pure refined gold.	12 واجعل الرجل اعز من الذهب الابريز والانسان اعز من ذهب اوفير.
13 For this purpose, I will stir up heaven, and the earth will be moved from its place, because of the indignation of the Lord of hosts, because of the day of his furious wrath.	13 لذلك ازلزل السموات وتتزعزع الارض من مكانها في سخط رب الجنود وفي يوم حمو غضبه.
14 And they will be like a doe fleeing away, or like sheep; and there will be no one who may gather them together. Each one will turn to his own people, and every one will flee to his own land.	14 ويكونون كظبي طريد وكغنم بلا من يجمعها. يلتفتون كل واحد الى شعبه ويهربون كل واحد الى ارضه.
15 All who are found will be killed, and all who are caught unaware will fall by the sword.	15 كل من وجد يطعن وكل من انحاش يسقط بالسيف.
16 Their infants will be thrown down violently before their eyes. Their houses will be plundered, and their wives will be violated.	16 وتحطم اطفالهم امام عيونهم وتنهب بيوتهم وتفضح نسائهم
17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them. They will not seek silver, nor desire gold.	17 هانذا اهيج عليهم الماديين الذين لا يعتدون بالفضة ولا يسرون بالذهب.
18 Instead, with their arrows, they will put the little children to death, and they will take no pity on breastfeeding women, and their eye will not spare their children.	18 فتحطم القسي الفتيان ولا يرحمون ثمرة البطن. لا تشفق عيونهم على الاولاد.
19 And then Babylon, the glorious one among kingdoms, that famous pride of the Chaldeans, will be destroyed, even as the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.	19 وتصير بابل بهاء الممالك وزينة فخر الكلدانيين كتقليب الله سدوم وعمورة.
20 It will not be inhabited, even unto the end, and it will not be reestablished, even from generation to generation. The Arab will not pitch his tents there, nor will the shepherds take rest there.	20 لا تعمر الى الابد ولا تسكن الى دور فدور ولا يخيم هناك اعرابي ولا يربض هناك رعاة.
21 Instead, the wild beasts will rest there, and their houses will be filled with serpents, and ostriches will live there, and the hairy ones will leap about there.	21 بل تربض هناك وحوش القفر ويملأ البوم بيوتهم وتسكن هناك بنات النعام وترقص هناك معز الوحش.
22 And the tawny owls will answer one another there, in its buildings, and the Sirens in its shrines of pleasure.	22 وتصيح بنات آوى في قصورهم والذئاب في هياكل التنعم ووقتها قريب المجيء وايامها لا تطول
