Isaiah 49

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Give ear, ye islands, and hearken, ye people from afar. The Lord hath called me from the womb, from the bowels of my mother he hath been mindful of my name.	1 اسمعي لي ايتها الجزائر واصغوا ايها الامم من بعيد. الرب من البطن دعاني من احشاء امي ذكر اسمي.
2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword: in the shadow of his hand he hath protected me, and hath made me as a chosen arrow: in his quiver he hath hidden me.	2 وجعل فمي كسيف حاد. في ظل يده خبأني وجعلني سهما مبريا في كنانته اخفاني.
3 And he said to me: Thou art my servant Israel, for in thee will I glory.	3 وقال لي انت عبدي اسرائيل الذي به اتمجد.
4 And I said: I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength without cause and in vain: therefore my judgment is with the Lord, and my work with my God.	4 اما انا فقلت عبثا تعبت باطلا وفارغا افنيت قدرتي. لكن حقي عند الرب وعملي عند الهي
5 And now saith the Lord, that formed me from the womb to be his servant, that I may bring back Jacob unto him, and Israel will not be gathered together: and I am glorified in the eyes of the Lord, and my God is made my strength.	5 والآن قال الرب جابلي من البطن عبدا له لارجاع يعقوب اليه فينضم اليه اسرائيل فاتمجد في عيني الرب والهي يصير قوتي.
6 And he said: It is a small thing that thou shouldst be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to convert the dregs of Israel. Behold, I have given thee to be the light of the Gentiles, that thou mayst be my salvation even to the farthest part of the earth.	6 فقال قليل ان تكون لي عبدا لاقامة اسباط يعقوب ورد محفوظي اسرائيل. فقد جعلتك نورا للامم لتكون خلاصي الى اقصى الارض.
7 Thus saith the Lord the redeemer of Israel, his Holy One, to the soul that is despised, to the nation that is abhorred, to the servant of rulers: Kings shall see, end princes shall rise up, and adore for the Lord's sake, because he is faithful, and for the Holy One of Israel, who hath chosen thee.	7 هكذا قال الرب فادي اسرائيل قدوسه للمهان النفس لمكروه الامة لعبد المتسلطين. ينظر ملوك فيقومون. رؤساء فيسجدون. لاجل الرب الذي هو امين وقدوس اسرائيل الذي قد اختارك
8 Thus saith the Lord: In an acceptable time I have heard thee, and in the day of salvation I have helped thee: and I have preserved thee, and given thee to be a covenant of the people, that thou mightest raise up the earth, and possess the inheritances that were destroyed:	8 هكذا قال الرب. في وقت القبول استجبتك وفي يوم الخلاص اعنتك. فاحفظك واجعلك عهدا للشعب لاقامة الارض لتمليك املاك البراري
9 That thou mightest say to them that are bound: Come forth: and to them that are in darkness: Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in every plain.	9 قائلا للاسرى اخرجوا. للذين في الظلام اظهروا على الطريق يرعون وفي كل الهضاب مرعاهم.
10 They shall not hunger, nor thirst, neither shall the heat nor the sun strike them: for he that is merciful to them, shall be their shepherd, and at the fountains of waters he shall give them drink.	10 لا يجوعون ولا يعطشون ولا يضربهم حر ولا شمس لان الذي يرحمهم يهديهم والى ينابيع المياه يوردهم.
11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my paths shall be exalted.	11 واجعل كل جبالي طريقا ومناهجي ترتفع.
12 Behold these shall come from afar, and behold these from the north and from the sea, and these from the south country.	12 هؤلاء من بعيد يأتون وهؤلاء من الشمال ومن المغرب وهؤلاء من ارض سينيم.
13 Give praise, O ye heavens, and rejoice, O earth, ye mountains, give praise with jubilation: because the Lord hath comforted his people, and will have mercy on his poor ones.	13 ترنمي ايتها السموات وابتهجي ايتها الارض لتشد الجبال بالترنم لان الرب قد عزى شعبه وعلى بائسيه يترحم
14 And Sion said: The Lord hath forsaken me, and the Lord hath forgotten me.	14 وقالت صهيون قد تركني الرب وسيدي نسيني
15 Can a woman forget her infant, so as not to have pity on the son of her womb? and if she should forget, yet will not I forget thee.	15 هل تنسى المرأة رضيعها فلا ترحم ابن بطنها. حتى هؤلاء ينسين وانا لا انساك.
16 Behold, I have graven thee in my hands: thy walls are always before my eyes.	16 هوذا على كفي نقشتك. اسوارك امامي دائما.
17 Thy builders are come: they that destroy thee and make thee waste shall go out of thee.	17 قد اسرع بنوك. هادموك ومخربوك منك يخرجون.
18 Lift up thy eyes round about, and see all these are gathered together, they are come to thee: I live, saith the Lord, thou shalt be clothed with all these se with an ornament, and as a bride thou shalt put them about thee.	18 ارفعي عينيك حواليك وانظري. كلهم قد اجتمعوا اتوا اليك. حيّ انا يقول الرب انك تلبسين كلهم كحلي وتتنطقين بهم كعروس.
19 For thy deserts, and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction shall now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, end they that swallowed thee up shall be chased far away.	19 ان خربك وبراريك وارض خرابك انك تكونين الآن ضيقة على السكان ويتباعد مبتلعوك.
20 The children of thy barrenness shall still say in thy ears: The place is too strait for me, make me room to dwell in.	20 يقول ايضا في اذنيك بنو ثكلك. ضيق عليّ المكان وسعي لي لاسكن
21 And thou shalt-say in thy heart: Who hath begotten these? I was barren and brought not forth, led away, and captive: and who hath brought up these? I was destitute and alone: and these, where were they?	21 فتقولين في قلبك من ولد لي هؤلاء وانا ثكلى وعاقر منفية ومطرودة. وهؤلاء من رباهم. هانذا كنت متروكة وحدي. هؤلاء اين كانوا
22 Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will lift up my hand to the Gentiles, and will set up my standard to the people. And they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and carry thy daughters upon their shoulders.	22 هكذا قال السيد الرب ها اني ارفع الى الامم يدي والى الشعوب اقيم رايتي. فيأتون باولادك في الاحضان وبناتك على الاكتاف يحملن
23 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and queens thy nurses: they shall worship thee with their face toward the earth, and they shall lick up the dust of thy feet. And thou shalt know that I am the Lord, for they shall not be confounded that wait for him.	23 ويكون الملوك حاضنيك وسيداتهم مرضعاتك. بالوجوه الى الارض يسجدون لك ويلحسون غبار رجليك فتعلمين اني انا الرب الذي لا يخزى منتظروه
24 Shall the prey be taken from the strong? or can that which was taken by the mighty be delivered?	24 هل تسلب من الجبار غنيمة وهل يفلت سبي المنصور.
25 For thus saith the Lord: Yea verily, even the captivity shall be taken away from the strong: and that which was taken by the mighty, shall be delivered. But I will judge those that have judged thee, and thy children I will save.	25 فانه هكذا قال الرب حتى سبي الجبار يسلب وغنيمة العاتي تفلت. وانا اخاصم مخاصمك واخلّص اولادك
26 And I will feed thy enemies with their own flesh: and they shall be made drunk with their own blood, as with new wine: and all flesh shall know, that I am the Lord that save thee, and thy Redeemer the Mighty One of Jacob.	26 واطعم ظالميك لحم انفسهم ويسكرون بدمهم كما من سلاف فيعلم كل بشر اني انا الرب مخلّصك وفاديك عزيز يعقوب
