1Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden to the weary beast.
1قد جثا بيل انحنى نبو. صارت تماثيلهما على الحيوانات والبهائم. محمولاتكم محملة حملا للمعيي.
2They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity.
2قد انحنت جثت معا لم تقدر ان تنجي الحمل وهي نفسها قد مضت في السبي
3Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb:
3اسمعوا لي يا بيت يعقوب وكل بقية بيت اسرائيل المحملين عليّ من البطن المحمولين من الرحم.
4And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
4والى الشيخوخة انا هو والى الشيبة انا احمل. قد فعلت وانا ارفع وانا احمل وانجي.
5To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?
5بمن تشبهونني وتسوونني وتمثلونني لنتشابه
6They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, and hire a goldsmith; and he maketh it a god: they fall down, yea, they worship.
6الذين يفرغون الذهب من الكيس والفضة بالميزان يزنون يستاجرون صائغا ليصنعها الها يخرون ويسجدون.
7They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he standeth; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble.
7يرفعونه على الكتف. يحملونه ويضعونه في مكانه ليقف من موضعه لا يبرح. يزعق احد اليه فلا يجيب. من شدته لا يخلصه
8Remember this, and shew yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors.
8اذكروا هذا وكونوا رجالا. ردّدوه في قلوبكم ايها العصاة.
9Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,
9اذكروا الاوليات منذ القديم لاني انا الله وليس آخر. الاله وليس مثلي.
10Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
10مخبر منذ البدء بالاخير ومنذ القديم بما لم يفعل قائلا رأيي يقوم وافعل كل مسرتي.
11Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.
11داع من المشرق الكاسر. من ارض بعيدة رجل مشورتي. قد تكلمت فاجريه. قضيت فافعله
12Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness:
12اسمعوا لي يا اشداء القلوب البعيدين عن البر.
13I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
13قد قربت بري. لا يبعد وخلاصي لا يتأخر. واجعل في صهيون خلاصا. لاسرائيل جلالي
