以赛亚书 31
1 祸哉！那些下埃及求帮助的， 是因仗赖马匹，倚靠甚多的车辆， 并倚靠强壮的马兵， 却不仰望以色列的圣者， 也不求问耶和华。
Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, and depend on horses, and confide in chariots because [they are] many, and in horsemen because they are very strong; and who look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek Jehovah!
2 其实，耶和华有智慧； 他必降灾祸， 并不反悔自己的话， 却要兴起攻击那作恶之家， 又攻击那作孽帮助人的。
But he also is wise, and he bringeth evil, and recalleth not his words; and he will arise against the house of evildoers, and against the help of workers of iniquity.
3 埃及人不过是人，并不是 神； 他们的马不过是血肉，并不是灵。 耶和华一伸手，那帮助人的必绊跌， 那受帮助的也必跌倒，都一同灭亡。
And the Egyptians are men, and not God, and their horses flesh, and not spirit; and Jehovah shall stretch forth his hand, and he that helpeth shall stumble, and he that is helped shall fall, and they all shall perish together.
4 耶和华对我如此说： 狮子和少壮狮子护食咆哮， 就是喊许多牧人来攻击它， 它总不因他们的声音惊惶， 也不因他们的喧哗缩伏。 如此，万军之耶和华 也必降临在锡安山冈上争战。
For thus hath Jehovah said unto me: Like as the lion and the young lion growling over his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, is not afraid of their voice, nor giveth way before the multitude of them; so will Jehovah of hosts come down to war upon mount Zion, and on the hill thereof.
5 雀鸟怎样搧翅覆雏， 万军之耶和华也要照样保护耶路撒冷。 他必保护拯救， 要越门保守。
As birds with outstretched wings, so will Jehovah of hosts cover Jerusalem; covering, he will also deliver, passing over, he will rescue [it].
6 以色列人哪，你们深深地悖逆耶和华，现今要归向他。
Turn unto him from whom ye have deeply revolted, ye children of Israel;
7 到那日，各人必将他金偶像银偶像，就是亲手所造、陷自己在罪中的，都抛弃了。
for in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which your sinful hands have made unto you.
8 亚述人必倒在刀下，并非人的刀； 有刀要将他吞灭，并非人的刀。 他必逃避这刀； 他的少年人必成为服苦的。
And Asshur shall fall by the sword, not of a great man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: and he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall become tributary;
9 他的磐石必因惊吓挪去； 他的首领必因大旗惊惶。 这是那有火在锡安、 有炉在耶路撒冷的耶和华说的。
and for fear, he shall pass over to his rock, and his princes shall be afraid of the banner, saith Jehovah, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
