Isaiah 31

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Woe to those who descend into Egypt for assistance, hoping in horses, and putting their trust in four-horse chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are exceedingly strong. And they have not believed in the Holy One of Israel, and they have not sought the Lord.	1 ويل للذين ينزلون الى مصر للمعونة ويستندون على الخيل ويتوكلون على المركبات لانها كثيرة وعلى الفرسان لانهم اقوياء جدا ولا ينظرون الى قدوس اسرائيل ولا يطلبون الرب.
2 Therefore, being wise, he has permitted harm, and he has not removed his words, and he will rise up against the house of the wicked and against those who assist the workers of iniquity.	2 وهو ايضا حكيم وياتي بالشر ولا يرجع بكلامه ويقوم على بيت فاعلي الشر وعلى معونة فاعلي الاثم.
3 Egypt is man, and not God. And their horses are flesh, and not spirit. And so, the Lord will reach down his hand, and the helper will fall, and the one who was being helped will fall, and they will all be consumed together.	3 واما المصريون فهم اناس لا آلهة وخيلهم جسد لا روح والرب يمد يده فيعثر المعين ويسقط المعان ويفنيان كلاهما معا
4 For the Lord says this to me: In the same way that a lion roars, and a young lion is over his prey, and though a multitude of shepherds may meet him, he will not dread their voice, nor be afraid of their number, so will the Lord of hosts descend in order to battle upon mount Zion and upon its hill.	4 لانه هكذا قال لي الرب كما يهر فوق فريسته الاسد والشبل الذي يدعى عليه جماعة من الرعاة وهو لا يرتاع من صوتهم ولا يتذلل لجمهورهم هكذا ينزل رب الجنود للمحاربة عن جبل صهيون وعن اكمتها.
5 Like birds flying, so will the Lord of hosts protect Jerusalem, protecting and freeing, passing over and saving.	5 كطيور مرفّة هكذا يحامي رب الجنود عن اورشليم يحامي فينقذ يعفو فينجي
6 Be converted to the same depth that you have drawn away, O sons of Israel.	6 ارجعوا الى الذي ارتد بنو اسرائيل عنه متعمقين.
7 For in that day, a man will cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which your hands have made for you unto sin.	7 لان في ذلك اليوم يرفضون كل واحد اوثان فضته واوثان ذهبه التي صنعتها لكم ايديكم خطيئة.
8 And Assur will fall by a sword not of man, and a sword not of man will devour him. And he will not flee from the face of the sword, and his young men will be subject to a penalty.	8 ويسقط اشور بسيف غير رجل وسيف غير انسان ياكله فيهرب من امام السيف ويكون مختاروه تحت الجزية
9 And his strength will pass away in terror, and his princes will flee in fear. The Lord has said it. His fire is in Zion, and his furnace is at Jerusalem.	9 وصخره من الخوف يزول ومن الراية يرتعب رؤساؤه يقول الرب الذي له نار في صهيون وله تنور في اورشليم
