以賽亞書 64
1 望你衝破諸天降下，諸山在你面前震盪。
O that thou wouldst rend the heavens, and come down; That the mountains might tremble at thy presence,
2 有如火怎樣燒乾了水，火也怎樣燒毀你的敵人，好使你的敵人認識你的名，使萬民在你面前戰慄，
As fire kindleth the dry stubble, As fire causeth water to boil, To make known thy name to thine adversaries, That the nations might tremble at thy presence;
3 因為你行了誰也想不到的驚人事蹟；【你下降，使山嶺在你面前震盪。】
As thou once didst wonderful things, which we looked not for, And camest down, so that the mountains trembled at thy presence.
4 是人從未聽過的，耳朵從未聽過，眼睛從未見過你以外，有一個神對依靠自己的人如此行事的。
For never have men heard, nor perceived by the ear, Nor hath eye seen, a God beside thee. Who doeth such things for those that trust in him.
5 你是歡迎那些履行正義和紀念你道路的人；但是，看，你發了怒，我們仍犯罪如初，仍照舊違叛你。
Thou art the friend of those who joyfully do righteousness, Those who remember thee in thy ways. Behold, thou art angry, and we are punished; Long doth the punishment endure, before we are delivered.
6 我們都好像成了不潔的人，所行的正義好似染了經血的內衣，又似乾枯的葉子；我們的罪惡好似狂風一般將我們捲去，
We are all of us an unclean thing; Like a filthy garment is all our righteousness; We are all withered like a leaf, And our sins, like a storm, have blown us away.
7 沒有一個呼求你名的，或奮起契合於你的，因為你掩面不顧我們，將我們委棄於我們罪惡的權下。
There is none that calleth upon thy name, That stirreth himself up to cleave to thee; For thou hidest thy face from us, And lettest us perish by our iniquities.
8 如今，上主啊！你是我們的父親；我們只是泥土，你是的我們的陶工，我們都是你手中的作品。
But now, O Jehovah, thou art our father; We are the clay, and thou hast formed us; We are all of us the work of thy hands.
9 上主啊！不要嚴加忿怒，不要時常記念我們的罪惡；求你垂顧！我們都是你的子民。
Be not wroth, O Jehovah, to the uttermost, Nor remember our iniquity forever! Behold, look upon us, we beseech thee, we are all thy people!
10 你的聖城都已成了荒地，熙雍已變為曠野，耶路撒冷成 了廢墟。
Thy holy cities have become a wilderness; Zion is become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
11 我們那華美的聖殿，即我們祖先讚頌你的所在，已被火焚燒，我們所喜愛的器皿都成了垃圾。
Our holy and glorious house, Where our fathers praised thee, Is burned with fire, And all our precious things are laid waste.
12 上主，對這些事你還忍得住嗎﹖你還緘默，重重難為我們嗎﹖
Wilt thou contain thyself at these things, O Jehovah, Wilt thou keep silence, and still grievously afflict us?
