1في سنة وفاة عزيا الملك رأيت السيد جالسا على كرسي عال ومرتفع واذياله تملأ الهيكل.
1In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.
2السرافيم واقفون فوقه لكل واحد ستة اجنحة باثنين يغطي وجهه وباثنين يغطي رجليه وباثنين يطير
2Above him stood the seraphim. Each one had six wings. With two he covered his face. With two he covered his feet. With two he flew.
3وهذا نادى ذاك وقال قدوس قدوس قدوس رب الجنود مجده ملء كل الارض
3One called to another, and said, “Holy, holy, holy, is Yahweh of Armies! The whole earth is full of his glory!”
4فاهتزت اساسات العتب من صوت الصارخ وامتلأ البيت دخانا
4The foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke.
5فقلت ويل لي اني هلكت لاني انسان نجس الشفتين وانا ساكن بين شعب نجس الشفتين لان عينيّ قد رأتا الملك رب الجنود.
5Then I said, “Woe is me! For I am undone, because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for my eyes have seen the King, Yahweh of Armies!”
6فطار اليّ واحد من السرافيم وبيده جمرة قد اخذها بملقط من على المذبح
6Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar.
7ومس بها فمي وقال ان هذه قد مست شفتيك فانتزع اثمك وكفر عن خطيتك
7He touched my mouth with it, and said, “Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away, and your sin forgiven.”
8ثم سمعت صوت السيد قائلا من ارسل ومن يذهب من اجلنا. فقلت هانذا ارسلني.
8I heard the Lord’s voice, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here I am. Send me!”
9فقال اذهب وقل لهذا الشعب اسمعوا سمعا ولا تفهموا وابصروا ابصارا ولا تعرفوا.
9He said, “Go, and tell this people, ‘You hear indeed, but don’t understand; and you see indeed, but don’t perceive.’
10غلّظ قلب هذا الشعب وثقّل اذنيه واطمس عينيه لئلا يبصر بعينيه ويسمع باذنيه ويفهم بقلبه ويرجع فيشفى.
10Make the heart of this people fat. Make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn again, and be healed.”
11فقلت الى متى ايها السيد. فقال الى ان تصير المدن خربة بلا ساكن والبيوت بلا انسان وتخرب الارض وتقفر
11Then I said, “Lord, how long?” He answered, “Until cities are waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land becomes utterly waste,
12ويبعد الرب الانسان ويكثر الخراب في وسط الارض.
12And Yahweh has removed men far away, and the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land.
13وان بقي فيها عشر بعد فيعود ويصير للخراب ولكن كالبطمة والبلوطة التي وان قطعت فلها ساق يكون ساقه زرعا مقدسا
13If there is a tenth left in it, that also will in turn be consumed: as a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stock remains when they are felled; so the holy seed is its stock.”
