1 W ho is this Who comes from Edom, with crimson-stained garments from Bozrah ? This One Who is glorious in His apparel, striding triumphantly in the greatness of His might? It is I, Who speaks in righteousness, mighty to save!

مَنْ هَذا الآتِي مِنْ أدُومَ، مِنْ مَدِينَةِ بُصرَى وَثِيابُهُ مُلَطَّخَةٌ بِاللَّونِ الأحمَرِ؟ مَنْ ذاكَ الَّلابِسُ ثِياباً جَمِيلَةً، وَيَسِيرُ بِقُوَّتِهِ العَظِيمَةِ؟ «هَذا أنا، المُعلِنُ النَّصرَ، القادِرُ عَلَى الخَلاصِ.»

2 W hy is Your apparel splashed with red, and Your garments like the one who treads in the winepress?

«فَلِماذا ثِيابُكَ مُلَطَّخَةٌ بِاللَّونِ الأحمَرِ كَثِيابِ مَنْ يَدُوسُونَ العِنَبَ فِي المِعْصَرَةِ؟»

3 I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the peoples there was no one with Me. I trod them in My anger and trampled them in My wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon My garments, and I stained all My raiment.

«دُستُ مِعصَرَةَ الخَمرِ وَحدِي، وَلَمْ يُساعِدنِي مِنَ الشُّعُوبِ أحَدٌ. مَشَيتُ عَلَيهِمْ فِي غَضَبِي، وَدُستُهُمْ فِي سَخَطِي. رُشَّتْ ثِيابِي بعَصِيرِهِمْ، فَتَلَطَّخَتْ كُلُّ مَلابِسِي.

4 F or the day of vengeance was in My heart, and My year of redemption has come.

لأنَّنِي حَدَّدْتُ يَومَ عِقابٍ لِلأُمَمِ، وَسَنَةُ تَحرِيرِ شَعبِي قَدِ جاءَتْ.

5 A nd I looked, but there was no one to help; I was amazed and appalled that there was no one to uphold. So My own arm brought Me victory, and My wrath upheld Me.

نَظَرتُ، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ مِنْ مُعِينٍ، وَاندَهَشتُ، إذْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مِنْ سَنيدٍ. فَنَصَرَتْنِي ذِراعِي، وَسَنَدَنِي غَضَبِي.

6 I trod down the peoples in My anger and made them drink of the cup of My wrath until they were intoxicated, and I spilled their lifeblood upon the earth.

دُستُ شُعُوباً فِي غَضَبِي، وَحَطَّمتُهُمْ فِي سَخَطِي، وَسَكَبتُ عَصِيرَهُمْ عَلَى التُّرابِ.» إحساناتُ اللهِ نَحوَ شَعبِه

7 I will recount the loving-kindnesses of the Lord and the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, according to all that the Lord has bestowed on us, and the great goodness to the house of Israel, which He has granted them according to His mercy and according to the multitude of His loving-kindnesses.

سَأُخبِرُ بِإحساناتِ اللهِ ، بأعمالِ اللهِ الَّتِي بِسَبَبِها يَستَحِقُّ التَّسبِيحَ، وَلأجلِ جَميعِ ما صَنَعَهُ اللهُ لَنا. لأجلِ إحسانِهِ الكَثِيرِ لِبَيتِ إسْرائِيلَ، الَّذِي أجزَلَهُ لَهُمْ بِحَسَبِ رَحمَتِهِ وَكَثرَةِ مَحَبَّتِهِ.

8 F or He said, Surely they are My people, sons who will not lie; and so He was to them a Savior.

قالَ: «إنَّما هُمْ شَعبِي، وَأولادِي الَّذِينَ لَنْ يَخُونُونِي.» وَلِذَلِكَ صارَ مُخَلِّصَهُمْ.

9 I n all their affliction He was afflicted, and the Angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He lifted them up and carried them all the days of old.

فِي كُلِّ ضِيقِهِمْ لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولٌ أوْ مَلاكٌ لِيُخَلِّصَهُمْ، وَلَكِنَّهُ هُوَ نَفسُهُ خَلَّصَهُمْ، وَبِمَحَبَّتِهِ وَرَحمَتِهِ هُوَ فَداهُمْ، وَرَفَعَهُمْ وَحَمَلَهُمْ كُلَّ الأيّامِ الماضِيَةِ.

10 B ut they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit; therefore He turned to become their enemy and Himself fought against them.

وَلَكِنَّهُمْ تَمَرَّدُوا، وَأحزَنُوا رُوحَهُ القُدُّوسَ. لِذَلِكَ صارَ عَدُوَّهُمْ، وَحارَبَهُمْ.

11 T hen His people remembered the days of old, of Moses and his people, Where is He Who brought up out of the Sea, with shepherds of His flock? Where is He Who put His Holy Spirit within their midst,

حِينَئِذٍ، تَذَكَّرُوا الأيّامَ الماضِيَةَ، تَذَكَّرَ شَعبُهُ مُوسَى. أينَ الَّذِي أخرَجَهُمْ مِنَ البَحرِ، الَّذِي كانَ يَرعَى غَنَمَهُ؟ أينَ الَّذِي وَضَعَ فِيهِمْ رُوحَهُ القُدُّوسَ؟

12 W ho caused His glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses, dividing the waters before them, to make for Himself an everlasting name,

أينَ الَّذِي وَضَعَ ذِراعَهُ المَجِيدَةَ فِي يَمينِ مُوسَى لِيَقُودَهُ؟ اينَ الَّذِي شَقَّ الماءَ أمامَهُمْ، لِيَكُونَ اسمُهُ مَعرُوفاً إلَى الأبَدِ؟

13 W ho led them through the depths, like a horse in the wilderness, so that they did not stumble?

أينَ الَّذِي قادَهُمْ فِي المِياهِ العَمِيقَةِ؟ كَالحِصانِ فِي البَرِّيَّةِ، فَلَمْ يَتَعَثَّرُوا،

14 L ike the cattle that go down into the valley, the Spirit of the Lord caused them to rest. So did You lead Your people to make for Yourself a beautiful and glorious name.

وَكالبَهائِمِ الَّتِي تَنزِلُ إلَى الوادِي؟ فَرُوحُ اللهِ قادَهُمْ إلَى الرّاحَةِ. هَكَذا قُدْتَ شَعبَكَ حَتَّى تَصنَعَ لِنَفسِكَ اسْماً مَجِيداً. صَلاةٌ إلَى الله

15 L ook down from heaven and see from the dwelling place of Your holiness and Your glory. Where are Your zeal and Your jealousy and Your mighty acts ? Your yearning pity and the compassions of Your heart are restrained and withheld from me.

انظُرْ مِنَ السَّماواتِ، مِنْ مَسكَنِكَ المُقَدَّسِ المَجِيدِ. أينَ غَيرَتُكَ وَقُوَّتُكَ، تَوقُ قَلبِكَ وَشَفَقَتُكَ؟ لِماذا تُخفيها عَنِّي؟

16 F or You are our Father, even though Abraham does not know us and Israel (Jacob) does not acknowledge us; You, O Lord, are our Father, our Redeemer from everlasting is Your name.

لأنَّكَ أنتَ أبُونا، حَتَّى لَو كانَ إبراهِيمُ لا يَعرِفُنا، وَإسْرائِيلُ لا يَعلَمُ مَنْ نَحنُ. أنتَ، يا اللهُ ، أبُونا، وَاسمُكَ مِنَ القَدِيمِ هُوَ «فادِينا.»

17 O Lord, why have You made us to err from Your ways and hardened our hearts to fear of You? Return for Your servants’ sake, the tribes of Your heritage.

لِماذا تَرَكتَنا يا اللهُ نَضِلُّ عَنْ طُرُقِكَ؟ وَلِماذا تَرَكتَ قُلُوبَنا لِتَتَقَسَّى فَلا نَخافَكَ؟ ارجِعْ لأجلِ خُدّامِكَ، وَلأجلِ القَبائِلِ الَّتِي هِيَ لَكَ.

18 Y our holy people possessed Your sanctuary but a little while; our adversaries have trodden it down.

شَعبُكَ المُقَدَّسُ امتَلَكَ هَيكَلَكَ لِفَترَةٍ قَصِيرَةٍ، وَلَكِنَّ أعداءَنا داسُوهُ.

19 W e have become like those over whom You never exercised rule, like those who were not called by Your name.

كُنّا لِفَترَةٍ طَوِيلَةٍ كَمَنْ لَمْ تَحكُمْهُمْ، وَكالَّذِينَ لَمْ يُدعُوا باسْمِكَ.
