以賽亞書 50
1 上主這樣說：「我離棄你們母親的離婚書在那裏呢﹖或者我把你們賣給了我的那一位債主呢﹖看！因了你們的惡行，你們纔被出賣，因了你們的過犯，你們的母親纔被離棄。
Thus says YHWH, "Where is the bill of your mother's divorce, with which I have put her away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Look, for your iniquities were you sold, and for your transgressions was your mother put away.
2 為什麼我來到的時候，沒有人在呢﹖為什麼我召呼的時候，無人答應﹖難道我的手短小而不能施救﹖或者我再無救助之力﹖看！我一怒喝，海便涸竭，江河便成為曠野，其中的魚類因無水而萎縮渴死。
Why, when I came, was there no man? When I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it can't redeem? or have I no power to deliver? Look, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stink, because there is no water, and die for thirst.
3 我可使黑暗籠罩諸天，使麻衣掩蔽天際。」
I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering."
4 吾主上主賜給了我一個受教的口舌，叫我會用言語援助疲倦的人。他每天清晨喚醒我，喚醒我的耳朵，叫我如同學子一樣靜聽。
YHWH has given me the tongue of those who are taught, that I may know how to sustain with a word him who is weary: he wakens morning by morning, he wakens my ear to hear as those who are taught.
5 吾主上主開啟了我的耳朵，我並沒有違抗，也沒有退避。
YHWH has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward.
6 我將我的背轉給打擊我的人，把我的腮轉給扯我鬍鬚的人；對於侮辱和唾污，我沒有遮掩我的面。
I gave my back to those who strike, and my cheeks to those who tore out my beard; I did not cover my face from insults and spitting.
7 因為吾主上主協助我，因此我不以為羞恥；所以我板著臉，像一塊燧石，因我知道我不會受恥辱。
But YHWH will help me; therefore I have not been confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be disappointed.
8 那給我伸冤者已來近了。誰要和我爭辯，讓我們一齊站起來罷！誰是我的對頭，叫他到我這裏來罷！
He is near who justifies me; who will bring charges against me? Let us stand up together: who is my adversary? Let him come near to me.
9 請看！有吾主上主扶助我，誰還能定我的罪呢﹖看！他們都像衣服一樣要破舊，為蠹蟲所侵蝕。
Look, YHWH will help me; who is he who shall condemn me? Look, all they shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.
10 你們中凡敬畏上主的，應聽他僕人的聲音！凡於黑暗中行走而不見光明的，該依靠上主的名字，並仰仗自己的天主。
Who is among you who fears YHWH, who listens to the voice of his servant? He who walks in darkness, and has no light, let him trust in the name of YHWH, and rely on his God.
11 看哪！凡你們點了火，燃了火把的，必要在你們所點的火燄裏，在你們所燃的火把中行走！這是我的手所加於你們的，你們必倒臥在痛苦之中。
Look, all you who kindle a fire, who adorn yourselves with flaming arrows around yourselves; walk in the light of your fire, and among the flaming arrows that you have kindled. You shall have this of my hand; you shall lie down in sorrow.
