以赛亚书 27
1 到那日，耶和华必用他刚硬有力的大刀刑罚鳄鱼—就是那快行的蛇，刑罚鳄鱼—就是那曲行的蛇，并杀海中的大鱼。
In that day lay a charge doth Jehovah, With his sword — the sharp, and the great, and the strong, On leviathan — a fleeing serpent, And on leviathan — a crooked serpent, And He hath slain the dragon that [is] in the sea.
2 当那日，有出酒的葡萄园， 你们要指这园唱歌说：
In that day, 'A desirable vineyard,' respond ye to her,
3 我—耶和华是看守葡萄园的； 我必时刻浇灌， 昼夜看守， 免得有人损害。
I, Jehovah, am its keeper, every moment I water it, Lest any lay a charge against it, Night and day I keep it!
4 我心中不存忿怒。 惟愿荆棘蒺藜与我交战， 我就勇往直前， 把它一同焚烧。
Fury is not in Me; Who giveth Me a brier — a thorn in battle? I step into it, I burn it at once.
5 不然，让它持住我的能力， 使它与我和好， 愿它与我和好。
Or — he doth take hold on My strength, He doth make peace with Me, Peace he doth make with Me.
6 将来雅各要扎根， 以色列要发芽开花； 他们的果实必充满世界。
Those coming in He causeth to take root, Jacob doth blossom, and flourished hath Israel, And they have filled the face of the world [with] increase.
7 主击打他们， 岂像击打那些击打他们的人吗？ 他们被杀戮， 岂像被他们所杀戮的吗？
As the smiting of his smiter hath He smitten him? As the slaying of his slain doth He slay?
8 你打发他们去， 是相机宜与他们相争； 刮东风的日子， 就用暴风将他们逐去。
In measure, in sending it forth, thou strivest with it, He hath taken away by His sharp wind, In the day of an east wind,
9 所以，雅各的罪孽得赦免， 他的罪过得除掉的果效，全在乎此： 就是他叫祭坛的石头变为打碎的灰石， 以致木偶和日像不再立起。
Therefore by this is the iniquity of Jacob covered, And this [is] all the fruit — To take away his sin, in His setting all the stones of an altar, As chalkstones beaten in pieces, They rise not — shrines and images.
10 因为坚固城变为凄凉， 成了撇下离弃的居所，像旷野一样； 牛犊必在那里吃草， 在那里躺卧，并吃尽其中的树枝。
For the fenced city [is] alone, A habitation cast out and forsaken as a wilderness, There doth the calf delight, And there it lieth down, And hath consumed its branches.
11 枝条枯干，必被折断； 妇女要来点火烧着。 因为这百姓蒙昧无知， 所以，创造他们的必不怜恤他们； 造成他们的也不施恩与他们。
In the withering of its branch it is broken off, Women are coming in setting it on fire, For it [is] not a people of understanding, Therefore pity it not doth its Maker, And its Former doth not favour it.
12 以色列人哪，到那日，耶和华必从大河，直到埃及小河，将你们一一地收集，如同人打树拾果一样。
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Beat out doth Jehovah from the branch of the river, Unto the stream of Egypt, And ye are gathered one by one, O sons of Israel.
13 当那日，必大发角声，在亚述地将要灭亡的，并在埃及地被赶散的，都要来，他们就在耶路撒冷圣山上敬拜耶和华。
And it hath come to pass, in that day, It is blown with a great trumpet, And come in have those perishing in the land of Asshur, And those cast out in the land of Egypt, And have bowed themselves to Jehovah, In the holy mount — in Jerusalem!
