الصوم الحقيقي
58 نَادِ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِكَ، لَا تَصْمُتْ. اهْتُفْ بِصَوْتِكَ كَنَفِيرِ بُوقٍ، وَأَخْبِرْ شَعْبِي بِإِثْمِهِمْ، وَذُرِّيَّةَ يَعْقُوبَ بِخَطَايَاهُمْ. 2 وَمَعَ ذَلِكَ، فَإِنَّهُمْ يَلْتَمِسُونَنِي يَوْمِيًّا، وَيُسَرُّونَ بِمَعْرِفَةِ طُرُقِي وَكَأَنَّهُمْ أُمَّةٌ تَصْنَعُ بِرّاً، وَكَأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُهْمِلُوا أَحْكَامَ إِلَهِهِمْ، يَطْلُبُونَ مِنِّي أَحْكَامَ بِرٍّ، وَيَغْتَبِطُونَ بِالتَّقَرُّبِ مِنَ اللهِ. 3 وَيَسْأَلُونَ: مَا بَالُنَا صُمْنَا وَأَنْتَ لَمْ تُلاحِظْ، وَتَذَلَّلْنَا وَلَمْ تَحْفِلْ بِذَلِكَ؟ إِنَّكُمْ فِي يَوْمِ صَوْمِكُمْ تَلْتَمِسُونَ مَسَرَّةَ أَنْفُسِكُمْ وَتُسَخِّرُونَ جَمِيعَ عُمَّالِكُمْ. 4 وَهَا أَنْتُمْ تَصُومُونَ لِكَيْ تَتَخَاصَمُوا وَتَتَشَاجَرُوا فَقَطْ، وَتَتَضَارَبُوا بِكَلِمَاتٍ أَثِيمَةٍ. إِنَّ مِثْلَ صَوْمِكُمُ الْيَوْمَ لَا يَجْعَلُ أَصْوَاتَكُمْ مَسْمُوعَةً فِي الْعَلاءِ. 5 أَيَكُونُ الصَّوْمُ الَّذِي أَخْتَارُهُ فِي إِذْلالِ الْمَرْءِ نَفْسَهُ يَوْماً، أَوْ فِي إِحْنَاءِ رَأْسِهِ كَالْقَصَبَةِ، أَوِ افْتِرَاشِ الْمِسْحِ وَالرَّمَادِ؟ أَتَدْعُو هَذَا صَوْماً مَقْبُولاً لَدَى الرَّبِّ؟ 6 أَلَيْسَ الصَّوْمُ الَّذِي أَخْتَارُهُ يَكُونُ فِي فَكِّ قُيُودِ الشَّرِّ، وَحَلِّ عُقَدِ النِّيرِ، وَإِطْلاقِ سَرَاحِ الْمُتَضَايِقِينَ، وَتَحْطِيمِ كُلِّ نِيرٍ؟ 7 أَلا يَكُونُ فِي مُشَاطَرَةِ خُبْزِكَ مَعَ الْجَائِعِ، وَإِيْوَاءِ الْفَقِيرِ الْمُتَشَرِّدِ فِي بَيْتِكَ، وَكُسْوَةِ الْعُرْيَانِ الَّذِي تَلْتَقِيهِ، وَعَدَمِ التَّغَاضِي عَنْ قَرِيبِكَ الْبَائِسِ؟
8 عِنْدَئِذٍ يَشِعُّ نُورُكَ كَالصَّبَاحِ، وَتُزْهِرُ عَافِيَتُكَ سَرِيعاً، وَيَتَقَدَّمُكَ بِرُّكَ، وَيَحْرُسُ مَجْدُ الرَّبِّ مُؤَخَّرَةَ سَاقَتِكَ. 9 عِنْدَئِذٍ تَدْعُو فَيَسْتَجِيبُ الرَّبُّ. تَسْتَغِيثُ فَيَقُولُ هَا أَنَا. إِنْ أَزَلْتَ مِنْ وَسَطِ بَيْتِكَ النِّيرَ، وَالإِيمَاءَ بِالأُصْبُعِ احْتِقَاراً، وَالنُّطْقَ بِالشَّرِّ، 10 إِن بَذَلْتَ نَفْسَكَ لِلْجَائِعِ، وَأَشْبَعْتَ حَاجَةَ الذَّلِيلِ، فَإِنَّ نُورَكَ يُشْرِقُ فِي الظُّلْمَةِ، وَلَيْلَكَ الدَّامِسَ يُصْبِحُ كَالظُّهْرِ، 11 وَيَهْدِيكَ الرَّبُّ دَائِماً وَيَسُدُّ حَاجَتَكَ حَتَّى فِي زَمَنِ الْقَحْطِ وَالأَرْضِ الْمُجْدِبَةِ، فَيُقَوِّي عِظَامَكَ فَتُصْبِحُ كَرَوْضَةٍ مَرْوِيَّةٍ، وَكَجَدْوَلِ مَاءٍ لَا يَنْقَطِعُ، 12 وَيَبْنِي أَوْلادُكَ الْخَرَائِبَ الْقَدِيمَةَ وَيُقِيمُونَ أَسَاسَاتِهَا، وَيُسَمُّونَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الشَّعْبَ الَّذِي بَنَى أَسْوَارَهُ وَرَمَّمَ أَحْيَاءَ مُدُنِهِ.
13 إِنْ كَفَفْتَ قَدَمَكَ عَنْ نَقْضِ يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ، وَعَنِ السَّعْيِ وَرَاءَ مَرَامِكَ فِي يَوْمِي الْمُقَدَّسِ، وَدَعَوْتَ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ يَوْمَ مَسَرَّةٍ لِلرَّبِّ، وَجَعَلْتَهُ يَوْماً مُكَرَّماً لِلهِ. إِنْ أَكْرَمْتَهُ وَلَمْ تَسْلُكْ حَسَبَ أَهْوَائِكَ أَوْ تَلْتَمِسْ قَضَاءَ مَصَالِحِكَ، أَوْ تُنْفِقْهُ فِي لَغْوِ الْكَلامِ، 14 عِنْدَئِذٍ تَبْتَهِجُ بِالرَّبِّ، وَأَجْعَلُكَ تَمْتَطِي مُرْتَفَعَاتِ الأَرْضِ، وَأُنْعِمُ عَلَيْكَ بِمِيرَاثِ يَعْقُوبَ أَبِيكَ، لأَنَّ فَمَ الرَّبِّ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ.
Isaia 58
Conferenza Episcopale Italiana
Il digiuno accetto a Dio
58 Grida a squarciagola, non aver riguardo;
come una tromba alza la voce;
dichiara al mio popolo i suoi delitti,
alla casa di Giacobbe i suoi peccati.
2 Mi ricercano ogni giorno,
bramano di conoscere le mie vie,
come un popolo che pratichi la giustizia
e non abbia abbandonato il diritto del suo Dio;
mi chiedono giudizi giusti,
bramano la vicinanza di Dio:
3 «Perché digiunare, se tu non lo vedi,
mortificarci, se tu non lo sai?».
Ecco, nel giorno del vostro digiuno curate i vostri affari,
angariate tutti i vostri operai.
4 Ecco, voi digiunate fra litigi e alterchi
e colpendo con pugni iniqui.
Non digiunate più come fate oggi,
così da fare udire in alto il vostro chiasso.
5 E' forse come questo il digiuno che bramo,
il giorno in cui l'uomo si mortifica?
Piegare come un giunco il proprio capo,
usare sacco e cenere per letto,
forse questo vorresti chiamare digiuno
e giorno gradito al Signore?
6 Non è piuttosto questo il digiuno che voglio:
sciogliere le catene inique,
togliere i legami del giogo,
rimandare liberi gli oppressi e spezzare ogni giogo?
7 Non consiste forse nel dividere il pane con l'affamato,
nell'introdurre in casa i miseri, senza tetto,
nel vestire uno che vedi nudo,
senza distogliere gli occhi da quelli della tua carne?
8 Allora la tua luce sorgerà come l'aurora,
la tua ferita si rimarginerà presto.
Davanti a te camminerà la tua giustizia,
la gloria del Signore ti seguirà.
9 Allora lo invocherai e il Signore ti risponderà;
implorerai aiuto ed egli dirà: «Eccomi!».
Se toglierai di mezzo a te l'oppressione,
il puntare il dito e il parlare empio,
10 se offrirai il pane all'affamato,
se sazierai chi è digiuno,
allora brillerà fra le tenebre la tua luce,
la tua tenebra sarà come il meriggio.
11 Ti guiderà sempre il Signore,
ti sazierà in terreni aridi,
rinvigorirà le tue ossa;
sarai come un giardino irrigato
e come una sorgente
le cui acque non inaridiscono.
12 La tua gente riedificherà le antiche rovine,
ricostruirai le fondamenta di epoche lontane.
Ti chiameranno riparatore di brecce,
restauratore di case in rovina per abitarvi.
Il sabato
13 Se tratterrai il piede dal violare il sabato,
dallo sbrigare affari nel giorno a me sacro,
se chiamerai il sabato delizia
e venerando il giorno sacro al Signore,
se lo onorerai evitando di metterti in cammino,
di sbrigare affari e di contrattare,
14 allora troverai la delizia nel Signore.
Io ti farò calcare le alture della terra,
ti farò gustare l'eredità di Giacobbe tuo padre,
poiché la bocca del Signore ha parlato.
Isaiah 58
New International Version
True Fasting
58 “Shout it aloud,(A) do not hold back.
Raise your voice like a trumpet.(B)
Declare to my people their rebellion(C)
and to the descendants of Jacob their sins.(D)
2 For day after day they seek(E) me out;
they seem eager to know my ways,
as if they were a nation that does what is right
and has not forsaken(F) the commands of its God.
They ask me for just decisions
and seem eager for God to come near(G) them.
3 ‘Why have we fasted,’(H) they say,
‘and you have not seen it?
Why have we humbled(I) ourselves,
and you have not noticed?’(J)
“Yet on the day of your fasting, you do as you please(K)
and exploit all your workers.
4 Your fasting ends in quarreling and strife,(L)
and in striking each other with wicked fists.
You cannot fast as you do today
and expect your voice to be heard(M) on high.
5 Is this the kind of fast(N) I have chosen,
only a day for people to humble(O) themselves?
Is it only for bowing one’s head like a reed(P)
and for lying in sackcloth and ashes?(Q)
Is that what you call a fast,
a day acceptable to the Lord?
6 “Is not this the kind of fasting(R) I have chosen:
to loose the chains of injustice(S)
and untie the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed(T) free
and break every yoke?(U)
7 Is it not to share your food with the hungry(V)
and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter(W)—
when you see the naked, to clothe(X) them,
and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?(Y)
8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn,(Z)
and your healing(AA) will quickly appear;
then your righteousness[a](AB) will go before you,
and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.(AC)
9 Then you will call,(AD) and the Lord will answer;(AE)
you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I.
“If you do away with the yoke of oppression,
with the pointing finger(AF) and malicious talk,(AG)
10 and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry
and satisfy the needs of the oppressed,(AH)
then your light(AI) will rise in the darkness,
and your night will become like the noonday.(AJ)
11 The Lord will guide(AK) you always;
he will satisfy your needs(AL) in a sun-scorched land(AM)
and will strengthen(AN) your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,(AO)
like a spring(AP) whose waters never fail.
12 Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins(AQ)
and will raise up the age-old foundations;(AR)
you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls,(AS)
Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.
13 “If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath(AT)
and from doing as you please on my holy day,
if you call the Sabbath a delight(AU)
and the Lord’s holy day honorable,
and if you honor it by not going your own way
and not doing as you please or speaking idle words,(AV)
14 then you will find your joy(AW) in the Lord,
and I will cause you to ride in triumph on the heights(AX) of the land
and to feast on the inheritance(AY) of your father Jacob.”
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.(AZ)
