< 以賽亞書 12 >
1 當那日,你要說:「上主!我稱頌你,因為你雖向我發了怒,但你的怒氣已止息,並且還安慰了我。
And in that day thou shalt say, I [will] bless thee, O Lord; for thou wast angry with me, but thou hast turned aside thy wrath, and hast pitied me.
2 看哪!天主是我的救援,我依靠他,決不畏懼,因為上主是我的力量,是我的歌頌,他確是我的救援。
Behold, my God is my Saviour; I will trust in him, and not be afraid: for the Lord is my glory and my praise, and is become my salvation.
Draw ye therefore water with joy out of the wells of salvation.
4 那一日,你要說:「你們應稱頌上主,呼號他的名!將他的作為宣告於萬民,稱述他的名是崇高的。
And in that day thou shalt say, sing to the Lord, call aloud upon his name, proclaim his glorious [deeds] among the Gentiles; make mention that his name is exalted.
5 請歌頌上主,因為他行了顯赫的事,這事應該遍傳天下。
Sing praise to the name of the Lord; for he has done great [things]: declare this in all the earth.
6 熙雍的居民,你們應歡呼高唱,因為以色列的聖者在你們中間是偉大的。」
Exalt and rejoice, ye that dwell in Sion: for the Holy One of Israel is exalted in the midst of her.
