Isaiah 48

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Hear ye these things, O house of Jacob, you that are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Juda, you who swear by the name of the Lord, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in justice.	1 اسمعوا هذا يا بيت يعقوب المدعوين باسم اسرائيل الذين خرجوا من مياه يهوذا الحالفين باسم الرب والذين يذكرون اله اسرائيل ليس بالصدق ولا بالحق.
2 For they are called of the holy city, and are established upon the God of Israel: the Lord of hosts is his name.	2 فانهم يسمّون من مدينة القدس ويسندون الى اله اسرائيل. رب الجنود اسمه.
3 The former things of old I have declared, and they went forth out of my mouth, and I have made them to be heard: I did them suddenly and they came to pass.	3 بالاوليات منذ زمان اخبرت ومن فمي خرجت وانبأت بها. بغتة صنعتها فأتت.
4 For I knew that thou art stubborn, and thy neck is as an iron sinew, and thy forehead as brass.	4 لمعرفتي انك قاس وعضل من حديد عنقك وجبهتك نحاس
5 I foretold thee of old, before they came to pass I told thee, lest thou shouldst say: My idols have done these things, and my graven and molten things have commanded them.	5 اخبرتك منذ زمان قبلما أتت انبأتك. لئلا تقول صنمي قد صنعها ومنحوتي ومسبوكي أمر بها.
6 See now all the things which thou hast heard: but have you declared them? I have shewn thee new things from that time, and things are kept which thou knowest not:	6 قد سمعت فانظر كلها. وانتم ألا تخبرون قد انبأتك بحديثات منذ الآن وبمخفيات لم تعرفها.
7 They are created now, and not of old: and before the day, when thou heardest them not, lest thou shouldst say: Behold I knew them.	7 الآن خلقت وليس منذ زمان وقبل اليوم لم تسمع بها لئلا تقول هانذا قد عرفتها.
8 Thou hast neither heard, nor known, neither was thy ear opened of old. For I know that transgressing thou wilt transgress, and I have called thee a transgressor from the womb.	8 لم تسمع ولم تعرف ومنذ زمان لم تنفتح اذنك فاني علمت انك تغدر غدرا ومن البطن سمّيت عاصيا.
9 For my name's sake I will remove my wrath far off: and for my praise I will bridle thee, lest thou shouldst perish.	9 من اجل اسمي ابطئ غضبي ومن اجل فخري امسك عنك حتى لا اقطعك.
10 Behold I have refined thee, but not as silver, I have chosen thee in the furnace of poverty.	10 هانذا قد نقيتك وليس بفضة. اخترتك في كور المشقة.
11 For my own sake, for my own sake will I do it, that I may not be blasphemed: and I will not give my glory to another.	11 من اجل نفسي من اجل نفسي افعل. لانه كيف يدنس اسمي وكرامتي لا اعطيها لآخر
12 Hearken to me, O Jacob, and thou Israel whom I call: I am he, I am the first, and I am the last.	12 اسمع لي يا يعقوب واسرائيل الذي دعوته. انا هو. انا الاول وانا الآخر
13 My hand also hath founded the earth, and my right hand hath measured the heavens: I shall call them, and they shall stand together.	13 ويدي اسست الارض ويميني نشرت السموات. انا ادعوهنّ فيقفن معا
14 Assemble yourselves together, all you, and hear: who among them hath declared these things? the Lord hath loved him, he will do his pleasure in Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.	14 اجتمعوا كلكم واسمعوا. من منهم اخبر بهذه. قد احبه الرب. يصنع مسرته ببابل ويكون ذراعه على الكلدانيين.
15 I, even I have spoken and called him: I have brought him, and his way is made prosperous.	15 انا انا تكلمت ودعوته. اتيت به فينجح طريقه.
16 Come ye near unto me, and hear this: I have not spoken in secret from the beginning: from the time before it was done, I was there, and now the Lord God hath sent me, and his spirit.	16 تقدموا اليّ اسمعوا هذا. لم اتكلم من البدء في الخفاء. منذ وجوده انا هناك والآن السيد الرب ارسلني وروحه
17 Thus saith the Lord thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: I am the Lord thy God that teach thee profitable things, that govern thee in the way that thou walkest.	17 هكذا يقول الرب فاديك قدوس اسرائيل. انا الرب الهك معلمك لتنتفع وامشيك في طريق تسلك فيه.
18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments: thy peace had been as a river, and thy justice as the waves of the sea,	18 ليتك اصغيت لوصاياي فكان كنهر سلامك وبرك كلجج البحر.
19 And thy seed had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof: his name should not have perished, nor have been destroyed from before my face.	19 وكان كالرمل نسلك وذرية احشائك كاحشائه. لا ينقطع ولا يباد اسمه من امامي
20 Come forth out of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, declare it with the voice of joy: make this to be heard, and speak it out even to the ends of the earth. Say: The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob.	20 اخرجوا من بابل اهربوا من ارض الكلدانيين. بصوت الترنم اخبروا نادوا بهذا شيّعوه الى اقصى الارض. قولوا قد فدى الرب عبده يعقوب.
21 They thirsted not in the desert, when he led them out: he brought forth water out of the rock for them, and he clove the rock, and the waters gushed out.	21 ولم يعطشوا في القفار التي سيرهم فيها. اجرى لهم من الصخر ماء وشق الصخر ففاضت المياه.
22 There is no peace to the wicked, saith the Lord.	22 لا سلام قال الرب للاشرار
