以賽亞書 52
1 熙雍起來，起來，披上你的威能！耶路撒冷聖城！穿上你華麗的衣服，因為未受割損和不潔的人，再不得進入你內。
Wake up, wake up, Zion! Be strong! Put on your best clothes, Jerusalem, the holy city. Heathen foreigners won't ever enter you again.
2 被擄的耶路撒冷！抖下灰塵，起來罷！被俘的熙雍女子！解下你頸項上的鎖鍊罷！
Shake yourself free from the dust and get up. Sit on your throne, Jerusalem. Throw off the chains around your neck, captive daughter of Zion.
3 因為上主這樣說：「你們是無代價被出賣的，也無需用金錢贖回。」
This is what the Lord says: You were sold for nothing, and you will be bought back without money.
4 吾主上主這樣說：「我的百姓昔日曾下到埃及，僑居在那裏，而後亞述又無故地虐待了她；
This is what the Lord God says: First of all, my people went to live in Egypt, then Assyria conquered them for no reason.
5 如今我還在這裏作什麼﹖上主的斷語。我的百姓已無故地被擄去，治理他的人又自誇自大－－上主的斷語－－我的名又天天不斷地受褻瀆；
What do have I to do now? asks the Lord. My people have been taken into captivity for no reason. Those who rule them mock them, and I'm treated with contempt that whole time, says the Lord.
6 為此我的百姓必要認得我的名，到那一天他們必明白：那說「看！我在這裏！」的那一位就是我。」
So I'm going to make sure my people know me; at that time they will know that I am the one who means what he says. Yes, it's me!
7 那傳佈喜訊，宣佈和平，傳報佳音，宣佈救恩，給熙雍說「你的天主為王了！」的腳步，在山上是多麼美麗啊！
What a wonderful sight in the mountains is the one running to bring good news, announcing peace and good news, announcing salvation, telling Zion, “Your God reigns!”
8 請聽，你的守望者都提高了喉嚨一起歡呼，因為他們親眼看見上主返回了熙雍。
The city watchmen shout loudly and sing for joy together; they all see the Lord returning to Jerusalem.
9 耶路撒冷的廢墟啊！你們要興高采烈，一起歡呼，因為上主安慰了自己的百姓，救贖了耶路撒冷。
Let Jerusalem's ruins all sing for joy for the Lord has come to care for his people; he has set Jerusalem free.
10 上主在萬民眼前顯露了自己的聖臂，大地四極看見了我們天主的救恩。
The Lord has demonstrated his holy power to all the nations; the whole world will see our God's salvation.
11 離開！離開！從那裏出來罷！不要觸摸不潔之物！你們攜帶上主器皿的人，從巴比倫中間出來，聖潔自己罷！
Leave, leave, get out of there! Don't bring anything pagan; come out and leave it all behind. Those of you who carry the Lord's sacred articles are to purify yourselves.
12 你們出走，不必慌張，更不必奔逃而去，因為上主要走在你們前面，以色列的天主將作你們的後盾。
But don't leave in a hurry, don't be in a rush as if you're running away, for the Lord will go ahead of you, and he will also protect those at the back.
13 請看，我的僕人必要成功，必要受尊榮，必要被舉揚，且極受崇奉。
Look: my servant will act wisely; he will be praised highly, he will be elevated in position, and seen as someone people look up to.
14 就如許多人對他不勝驚愕，因為他的容貌損傷得已不像人，他的形狀已不像人子，
But many were horrified by him, so disfigured in appearance, no longer looking like a man, so unlike anyone human.
15 同樣，眾民族也都要對他不勝驚異，眾君王在他面前都要閉口，因為他們看見了從未向他們講述過的事，聽見了從未聽說過的事。
He will surprise many nations, and kings will keep quiet because of him—for they'll see what they haven't been told, and they'll understand what they hadn't heard.
