以賽亞書 63
1 「那由厄東而來，身穿染紅了的衣服，那由波責辣而來，衣著華麗，力量強大，闊步前進的是誰啊﹖」「是宣佈正義，具有拯救大能的我。」「
'Who [is] this coming from Edom? With dyed garments from Bozrah? This that is honourable in his clothing, Travelling in the abundance of his power?' — 'I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save.'
2 你的服裝怎麼成了紅色，你的衣服好似一個踏酒醡的呢﹖」「
'Wherefore [is] thy clothing red? And thy garments as treading in a wine fat?'
3 因為唯獨我一人踐踏了酒醡，我的人民中沒有一個與我在一起。我在怒氣中踐踏了他們，我在怒火中蹂躪了他們，因此他們的血液濺到我的衣服上，我的服裝就完全染污了。
— 'A wine-press I have trodden by myself, And of the peoples there is no one with me, And I tread them in mine anger, And I trample them in my fury, Sprinkled is their strength on my garments, And all my clothing I have polluted.
4 因為復仇的日子已在我心中，我施救的歲月已經來到。
For the day of vengeance [is] in my heart, And the year of my redeemed hath come.
5 我四下觀看，但沒有人輔助；我驚愕四顧，但沒有人支持；因此惟有用我的手臂自行拯救，以我的怒氣來支持自己。
And I look attentively, and there is none helping, And I am astonished that there is none supporting, And give salvation to me doth mine own arm. And my wrath — it hath supported me.
6 我在怒氣中踐踏了民眾，我在怒火中粉碎了他們，使他們的鮮血流倒地下。」
And I tread down peoples in mine anger, And I make them drunk in my fury, And I bring down to earth their strength.
7 我要依照上主以他的大慈大悲賜與我們的一切，和對以色列家所賜的宏福，稱頌上主的慈惠和上主可讚頌的作為。
The kind acts of Jehovah I make mention of, The praises of Jehovah, According to all that Jehovah hath done for us, And the abundance of the goodness to the house of Israel, That He hath done for them, According to His mercies, And according to the abundance of His kind acts.
8 他曾說過：「他們的確是我的百姓，不行虛偽的子民；」因此他成了他們一切困難中的拯救者。
And He saith, Only My people they [are], Sons — they lie not, and He is to them for a saviour.
9 並不是使者，也不是天使拯救他們，而是他自己。他以自己的愛情和憐憫贖回了他們；在往日，他時常扶持他們，懷抱他們。
In all their distress [He is] no adversary, And the messenger of His presence saved them, In His love and in His pity He redeemed them, And He doth lift them up, And beareth them all the days of old.
10 但是他們成了叛徒，刺傷了他的聖神；因此他變成了他們的敵人，親自攻擊他們。
And they have rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit, And He turneth to them for an enemy, He Himself hath fought against them.
11 那時，他們想起古來的日子，想起他的僕人梅瑟。那引領羊群的牧者出離海洋的在那裏呢﹖那曾在他心中賦與自己聖神的在那裏呢﹖
And He remembereth the days of old, Moses — his people. Where [is] He who is bringing them up from the sea, The shepherd of his flock? Where [is] He who is putting in its midst His Holy Spirit?
12 那在梅瑟右邊以其榮耀的手臂，在百姓前分開海水，使自己獲得永遠聲譽的在那裏呢﹖
Leading by the right hand of Moses, the arm of His glory, Cleaving waters from before them, To make to Himself a name age-during.
13 那領導他們走過深淵，有如馬行於曠野而不顛躓的在那裏呢﹖
Leading them through the depths, As a horse in a plain they stumble not.
14 上主的神怎樣領導走獸下到山谷，你也怎樣領導了你的百姓，好使你獲得一個光榮的名號。
As a beast into a valley goeth down, The Spirit of Jehovah causeth him to rest, So hast Thou led Thy people, To make to Thyself a glorious name.
15 如今求你從天垂顧，從你光榮的聖所俯視！你的熱愛，你的大能和你的同情心在那裏呢﹖求你不要停止你的慈悲，
Look attentively from the heavens, And see from Thy holy and beauteous habitation, Where [is] Thy zeal and Thy might? The multitude of Thy bowels and Thy mercies Towards me have refrained themselves.
16 因為你是我們的父親；亞巴郎雖不認識我們，以色列雖不記得我們，你上主卻是我們的父親，「我們自古以來的救主」就是你的名。
For Thou [art] our Father, For Abraham hath not known us, And Israel doth not acknowledge us, Thou, O Jehovah, [art] our Father, Our redeemer from the age, [is] Thy name.
17 上主！ 你為什麼讓我們離開你的道路﹖使我們的心變硬而不敬畏你﹖求你為了你的僕人，為了你產業的各支派，回心轉意罷！
Why causest Thou us to wander, O Jehovah, from Thy ways? Thou hardenest our heart from Thy fear, Turn back for Thy servants' sake, The tribes of Thine inheritance.
18 你為什麼讓惡人踐踏你的聖殿﹖為什麼讓我們的敵人蹂躪你的聖所﹖
For a little while did Thy holy people possess, Our adversaries have trodden down Thy sanctuary.
19 我們儼然成了一個從未受你治理，從未屬你名下的民族。啊！
We have been from of old, Thou hast not ruled over them, Not called is Thy name upon them!
