以赛亚书 24
1 看哪，耶和华使地空虚，变为荒凉； 又翻转大地，将居民分散。
Behold the Lord shall lay waste the earth, and shall strip it, and shall afflict the face thereof, and scatter abroad the inhabitants thereof.
2 那时百姓怎样，祭司也怎样； 仆人怎样，主人也怎样； 婢女怎样，主母也怎样； 买物的怎样，卖物的也怎样； 放债的怎样，借债的也怎样； 取利的怎样，出利的也怎样。
And it shall be as with the people, so with the priest: and as with the servant, so with his master: as with the handmaid, so with her mistress: as with the buyer, so with the seller: as with the lender, so with the borrower: as with him that calleth for his money, so with him that oweth.
3 地必全然空虚，尽都荒凉； 因为这话是耶和华说的。
With desolation shall the earth be laid waste, and it shall be utterly spoiled: for the Lord hath spoken this word.
4 地上悲哀衰残， 世界败落衰残； 地上居高位的人也败落了。
The earth mourned, and faded away, and is weakened: the world faded away, the height of the people of the earth is weakened.
5 地被其上的居民污秽； 因为他们犯了律法， 废了律例，背了永约。
And the earth is infected by the inhabitants thereof: because they have transgressed the laws, they have changed the ordinance, they have broken the everlasting covenant.
6 所以，地被咒诅吞灭； 住在其上的显为有罪。 地上的居民被火焚烧， 剩下的人稀少。
Therefore shall a curse devour the earth, and the inhabitants thereof shall sin: and therefore they that dwell therein shall be mad, and few men shall be left.
7 新酒悲哀，葡萄树衰残； 心中欢乐的俱都叹息。
The vintage hath mourned, the vine hath languished away, all the merryhearted have sighed.
8 击鼓之乐止息； 宴乐人的声音完毕， 弹琴之乐也止息了。
The mirth of timbrels hath ceased, the noise of them that rejoice is ended, the melody of the harp is silent.
9 人必不得饮酒唱歌； 喝浓酒的，必以为苦。
They shall not drink wine with a song: the drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.
10 荒凉的城拆毁了； 各家关门闭户，使人都不得进去。
The city of vanity is broken down, every house is shut up, no man cometh in.
11 在街上因酒有悲叹的声音； 一切喜乐变为昏暗； 地上的欢乐归于无有。
There shall be a crying for wine in the streets: all mirth is forsaken: the joy of the earth is gone away.
12 城中只有荒凉； 城门拆毁净尽。
Desolation is left in the city, and calamity shall oppress the gates.
13 在地上的万民中， 必像打过的橄榄树， 又像已摘的葡萄所剩无几。
For it shall be thus in the midst of the earth, in the midst of the people, as if a few olives, that remain, should be shaken out of the olive tree: or grapes, when the vintage is ended.
14 这些人要高声欢呼； 他们为耶和华的威严，从海那里扬起声来。
These shall lift up their voice, and shall give praise: when the Lord shall be glorified, they shall make a joyful noise from the sea.
15 因此，你们要在东方荣耀耶和华， 在众海岛荣耀耶和华—以色列 神的名。
Therefore glorify ye the Lord in instruction: the name of the Lord God of Israel in the islands of the sea.
16 我们听见从地极有人歌唱，说： 荣耀归于义人。 我却说：我消灭了！ 我消灭了，我有祸了！ 诡诈的行诡诈； 诡诈的大行诡诈。
From the ends of the earth we have heard praises, the glory of the just one. And I said: My secret to myself, my secret to myself, woe is me: the prevaricators have prevaricated, and with the prevarication of transgressors they have prevaricated.
17 地上的居民哪， 恐惧、陷坑、网罗都临近你。
Fear, and the pit, and the snare are upon thee, O thou inhabitant of the earth.
18 躲避恐惧声音的必坠入陷坑； 从陷坑上来的必被网罗缠住； 因为天上的窗户都开了， 地的根基也震动了。
And it shall come to pass, that he that shall flee from the noise of the fear, shall fall into the pit: and he that shall rid himself out of the pit, shall be taken in the snare: for the flood-gates from on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.
19 地全然破坏，尽都崩裂， 大大地震动了。
With breaking shall the earth be broken, with crushing shall the earth be crushed, with trembling shall the earth be moved.
20 地要东倒西歪，好像醉酒的人； 又摇来摇去，好像吊床。 罪过在其上沉重， 必然塌陷，不能复起。
With shaking shall the earth be shaken as a drunken man, and shall be removed as the tent of one night: and the iniquity thereof shall be heavy upon it, and it shall fell, and not rise again.
21 到那日，耶和华在高处必惩罚高处的众军， 在地上必惩罚地上的列王。
And it shall come to pass, that in that day the Lord shall visit upon the host of heaven on high, and upon the kings of the earth, on the earth.
22 他们必被聚集，像囚犯被聚在牢狱中， 并要囚在监牢里， 多日之后便被讨罪。
And they shall be gathered together as in the gathering of one bundle into the pit, and they shall be shut up there in prison: and after many days they shall be visited.
23 那时，月亮要蒙羞，日头要惭愧； 因为万军之耶和华必在锡安山， 在耶路撒冷作王； 在敬畏他的长老面前，必有荣耀。
And the moon shall blush, and the sun shall be ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Sion, and in Jerusalem, and shall be glorified in the sight of his ancients.
