以赛亚书 35

1 旷野和干旱之地必然欢喜； 沙漠也必快乐； 又像玫瑰开花，

Be glad, you thirsty desert: let the wilderness exult, and flower as the lily.

2 必开花繁盛， 乐上加乐，而且欢呼。 黎巴嫩的荣耀， 并迦密与沙 的华美，必赐给它。 人必看见耶和华的荣耀， 我们 神的华美。

And the desert places of Jordan shall blossom and rejoice; the glory of Libanus has been given to it, and the honor of Carmel; and my people shall see the glory of the Lord, and the majesty of God.

3 你们要使软弱的手坚壮， 无力的膝稳固。

Be strong, you relaxed hands and palsied knees.

4 对胆怯的人说： 你们要刚强，不要惧怕。 看哪，你们的 神必来报仇， 必来施行极大的报应； 他必来拯救你们。

Comfort one another, you faint-hearted; be strong, fear not; behold, our God renders judgment, and he will render [it]; he will come and save us.

5 那时，瞎子的眼必睁开； 聋子的耳必开通。

Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall hear.

6 那时，瘸子必跳跃像鹿； 哑巴的舌头必能歌唱。 在旷野必有水发出； 在沙漠必有河涌流。

Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the stammerers shall speak plainly; for water has burst forth in the desert, and a channel [of water] in a thirsty land.

7 发光的沙要变为水池； 干渴之地要变为泉源。 在野狗躺卧之处， 必有青草、芦苇，和蒲草。

And the dry land shall become pools, and a fountain of water shall [be poured] into the thirsty land; there shall there be a joy of birds, ready habitations and marshes.

8 在那里必有一条大道， 称为圣路。 污秽人不得经过， 必专为赎民行走； 行路的人虽愚昧， 也不致失迷。

There shall be there a pure way, and it shall be called a holy way; and there shall not pass by there any unclean person, neither shall there be there an unclean way; but the dispersed shall walk on it, and they shall not go astray.

9 在那里必没有狮子， 猛兽也不登这路； 在那里都遇不见， 只有赎民在那里行走。

And there shall be no lion there, neither shall any evil beast go up upon it, nor at all be found there; but the redeemed and gathered on the Lord's behalf, shall walk in it,

10 并且耶和华救赎的民必归回， 歌唱来到锡安； 永乐必归到他们的头上； 他们必得着欢喜快乐， 忧愁叹息尽都逃避。

and shall return, and come to Sion with joy, and everlasting joy [shall be] over their head; for on their head [shall be] praise and exultation, and joy shall take possession of them: sorrow and pain, and groaning have fled away.
