| 1 عزّوا عزّوا شعبي يقول الهكم. | 1 Comfort, comfort my people, says your God. |
| 2 طيبوا قلب اورشليم ونادوها بان جهادها قد كمل ان اثمها قد عفي عنه انها قد قبلت من يد الرب ضعفين عن كل خطاياها | 2 Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to her that her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received from the LORD's hand double for all her sins. |
| 3 صوت صارخ في البرية اعدوا طريق الرب. قوّموا في القفر سبيلا لالهنا. | 3 A voice cries: "In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. |
| 4 كل وطاء يرتفع وكل جبل واكمة ينخفض ويصير المعوج مستقيما والعراقيب سهلا. | 4 Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain. |
| 5 فيعلن مجد الرب ويراه كل بشر جميعا لان فم الرب تكلم | 5 And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken." |
| 6 صوت قائل ناد. فقال بماذا انادي. كل جسد عشب وكل جماله كزهر الحقل. | 6 A voice says, "Cry!" And I said, "What shall I cry?" All flesh is grass, and all its beauty is like the flower of the field. |
| 7 يبس العشب ذبل الزهر لان نفخة الرب هبت عليه. حقا الشعب عشب. | 7 The grass withers, the flower fades, when the breath of the LORD blows upon it; surely the people is grass. |
| 8 يبس العشب ذبل الزهر واما كلمة الهنا فتثبت الى الابد | 8 The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand for ever. |
| 9 على جبل عال اصعدي يا مبشرة صهيون. ارفعي صوتك بقوة يا مبشرة اورشليم. ارفعي لا تخافي. قولي لمدن يهوذا هوذا الهك. | 9 Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, fear not; say to the cities of Judah, "Behold your God!" |
| 10 هوذا السيد الرب بقوة يأتي وذراعه تحكم له. هوذا اجرته معه وعملته قدامه. | 10 Behold, the Lord GOD comes with might, and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. |
| 11 كراع يرعى قطيعه. بذراعه يجمع الحملان وفي حضنه يحملها ويقود المرضعات | 11 He will feed his flock like a shepherd, he will gather the lambs in his arms, he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young. |
| 12 من كال بكفه المياه وقاس السموات بالشبر وكال بالكيل تراب الارض ووزن الجبال بالقبان والآكام بالميزان. | 12 Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand and marked off the heavens with a span, enclosed the dust of the earth in a measure and weighed the mountains in scales and the hills in a balance? |
| 13 من قاس روح الرب ومن مشيره يعلمه. | 13 Who has directed the Spirit of the LORD, or as his counselor has instructed him? |
| 14 من استشاره فافهمه وعلمه في طريق الحق وعلمه معرفة وعرفه سبيل الفهم. | 14 Whom did he consult for his enlightenment, and who taught him the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and showed him the way of understanding? |
| 15 هوذا الامم كنقطة من دلو وكغبار الميزان تحسب هوذا الجزائر يرفعها كدقة. | 15 Behold, the nations are like a drop from a bucket, and are accounted as the dust on the scales; behold, he takes up the isles like fine dust. |
| 16 ولبنان ليس كافيا للايقاد وحيوانه ليس كافيا لمحرقة. | 16 Lebanon would not suffice for fuel, nor are its beasts enough for a burnt offering. |
| 17 كل الامم كلا شيء قدامه. من العدم والباطل تحسب عنده | 17 All the nations are as nothing before him, they are accounted by him as less than nothing and emptiness. |
| 18 فبمن تشبهون الله واي شبه تعادلون به. | 18 To whom then will you liken God, or what likeness compare with him? |
| 19 الصنم يسبكه الصانع والصائغ يغشيه بذهب ويصوغ سلاسل فضة. | 19 The idol! a workman casts it, and a goldsmith overlays it with gold, and casts for it silver chains. |
| 20 الفقير عن التقدمة ينتخب خشبا لا يسوس يطلب له صانعا ماهرا لينصب صنما لا يتزعزع | 20 He who is impoverished chooses for an offering wood that will not rot; he seeks out a skilful craftsman to set up an image that will not move. |
| 21 ألا تعلمون. ألا تسمعون. ألم تخبروا من البداءه. ألم تفهموا من اساسات الارض | 21 Have you not known? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? |
| 22 الجالس على كرة الارض وسكانها كالجندب الذي ينشر السموات كسرادق ويبسطها كخيمة للسكن | 22 It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them like a tent to dwell in; |
| 23 الذي يجعل العظماء لا شيء ويصير قضاة الارض كالباطل. | 23 who brings princes to nought, and makes the rulers of the earth as nothing. |
| 24 لم يغرسوا بل لم يزرعوا ولم يتأصل في الارض ساقهم. فنفخ ايضا عليهم فجفوا والعاصف كالعصف يحملهم. | 24 Scarcely are they planted, scarcely sown, scarcely has their stem taken root in the earth, when he blows upon them, and they wither, and the tempest carries them off like stubble. |
| 25 فبمن تشبهونني فاساويه يقول القدوس. | 25 To whom then will you compare me, that I should be like him? says the Holy One. |
| 26 ارفعوا الى العلاء عيونكم وانظروا من خلق هذه. من الذي يخرج بعدد جندها يدعو كلها باسماء. لكثرة القوة وكونه شديد القدرة لا يفقد احد | 26 Lift up your eyes on high and see: who created these? He who brings out their host by number, calling them all by name; by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power not one is missing. |
| 27 لماذا تقول يا يعقوب وتتكلم يا اسرائيل قد اختفت طريقي عن الرب وفات حقي الهي. | 27 Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, "My way is hid from the LORD, and my right is disregarded by my God"? |
| 28 أما عرفت ام لم تسمع. اله الدهر الرب خالق اطراف الارض لا يكل ولا يعيا ليس عن فهمه فحص. | 28 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary, his understanding is unsearchable. |
| 29 يعطي المعيي قدرة ولعديم القوة يكثر شدة. | 29 He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. |
| 30 الغلمان يعيون ويتعبون والفتيان يتعثرون تعثرا. | 30 Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; |
| 31 واما منتظروا الرب فيجددون قوة. يرفعون اجنحة كالنسور. يركضون ولا يتعبون يمشون ولا يعيون | 31 but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. |
