Notes on this text (3)

1 تَجَمَّعِي وَٱجْتَمِعِي يَا أَيَّتُهَا ٱلْأُمَّةُ غَيْرُ ٱلْمُسْتَحِيَةِ. 2 قَبْلَ وِلَادَةِ ٱلْقَضَاءِ. كَٱلْعُصَافَةِ عَبَرَ ٱلْيَوْمُ. قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ عَلَيْكُمْ حُمُوُّ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ، قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ عَلَيْكُمْ يَوْمُ سَخَطِ ٱلرَّبِّ. 3 أُطْلُبُوا ٱلرَّبَّ، يَا جَمِيعَ بَائِسِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّذِينَ فَعَلُوا حُكْمَهُ. ٱطْلُبُوا ٱلْبِرَّ. ٱطْلُبُوا ٱلتَّوَاضُعَ. لَعَلَّكُمْ تُسْتَرُونَ فِي يَوْمِ سَخَطِ ٱلرَّبِّ. 4 لِأَنَّ غَزَّةَ تَكُونُ مَتْرُوكَةً، وَأَشْقَلُونَ لِلْخَرَابِ. أَشْدُودُ عِنْدَ ٱلظَّهِيرَةِ يَطْرُدُونَهَا، وَعَقْرُونُ تُسْتَأْصَلُ. 5 وَيْلٌ لِسُكَّانِ سَاحِلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ أُمَّةِ ٱلْكِرِيتِيِّينَ! كَلِمَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْكُمْ: «يَا كَنْعَانُ أَرْضَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، إِنِّي أَخْرِبُكِ بِلَا سَاكِنٍ». 6 وَيَكُونُ سَاحِلُ ٱلْبَحْرِ مَرْعًى بِآبَارٍ لِلرُّعَاةِ وَحَظَائِرَ لِلْغَنَمِ. 7 وَيَكُونُ ٱلسَّاحِلُ لِبَقِيَّةِ بَيْتِ يَهُوذَا. عَلَيْهِ يَرْعَوْنَ. فِي بُيُوتِ أَشْقَلُونَ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَسَاءِ يَرْبُضُونَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَهُمْ يَتَعَهَّدُهُمْ وَيَرُدُّ سَبْيَهُمْ. 8 «قَدْ سَمِعْتُ تَعْيِيرَ مُوآبَ وَتَجَادِيفَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ ٱلَّتِي بِهَا عَيَّرُوا شَعْبِي، وَتَعَظَّمُوا عَلَى تُخُمِهِمْ. 9 فَلِذَلِكَ حَيٌّ أَنَا، يَقُولُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، إِنَّ مُوآبَ تَكُونُ كَسَدُومَ وَبَنِي عَمُّونَ كَعَمُورَةَ، مِلْكَ ٱلْقَرِيصِ، وَحُفْرَةَ مِلْحٍ، وَخَرَابًا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. تَنْهَبُهُمْ بَقِيَّةُ شَعْبِي، وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمَّتِي تَمْتَلِكُهُمْ». 10 هَذَا لَهُمْ عِوَضُ تَكَبُّرِهِمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ عَيَّرُوا وَتَعَظَّمُوا عَلَى شَعْبِ رَبِّ ٱلْجُنُودِ. 11 ٱلرَّبُّ مُخِيفٌ إِلَيْهِمْ، لِأَنَّهُ يُهْزِلُ جَمِيعَ آلِهَةِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَسَيَسْجُدُ لَهُ ٱلنَّاسُ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْ مَكَانِهِ، كُلُّ جَزَائِرِ ٱلْأُمَمِ. 12 «وَأَنْتُمْ يَا أَيُّهَا ٱلْكُوشِيُّونَ. قَتْلَى سَيْفِي هُمْ». 13 وَيَمُدُّ يَدَهُ عَلَى ٱلشِّمَالِ وَيُبِيدُ أَشُّورَ، وَيَجْعَلُ نِينَوَى خَرَابًا يَابِسَةً كَٱلْقَفْرِ. 14 فَتَرْبُضُ فِي وَسَطِهَا ٱلْقُطْعَانُ، كُلُّ طَوَائِفِ ٱلْحَيَوَانِ. اَلْقُوقُ أَيْضًا وَٱلْقُنْفُذُ يَأْوِيَانِ إِلَى تِيجَانِ عُمُدِهَا. صَوْتٌ يَنْعِبُ فِي ٱلْكُوَى. خَرَابٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَعْتَابِ. لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ تَعَرَّى أَرْزِيُّهَا. 15 هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْمَدِينَةُ ٱلْمُبْتَهِجَةُ ٱلسَّاكِنَةُ مُطْمَئِنَّةً، ٱلْقَائِلَةُ فِي قَلْبِهَا: «أَنَا وَلَيْسَ غَيْرِي». كَيْفَ صَارَتْ خَرَابًا، مَرْبِضًا لِلْحَيَوَانِ! كُلُّ عَابِرٍ بِهَا يَصْفِرُ وَيَهُزُّ يَدَهُ.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 2:11 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVIII, Chapters 33–35)

And again he says, "The Lord will be terrible upon them, and will exterminate all the gods of the earth; and they shall worship Him every man from his place, even all the isles of the nations." And a little after he says, "Then will I turn to the people a tongue, …
