以赛亚书 57
1 义人死亡， 无人放在心上； 虔诚人被收去， 无人思念。 这义人被收去是免了将来的祸患；
The righteous man perisheth, and no one layeth it to heart; And pious men are taken away, and none considereth That because of the evil the righteous man is taken away.
2 他们得享平安。 素行正直的，各人在坟里安歇。
He entereth into peace; He resteth in his bed, Every one that walketh in uprightness.
3 你们这些巫婆的儿子， 奸夫和妓女的种子， 都要前来！
But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, Ye brood of the adulterer and the harlot!
4 你们向谁戏笑？ 向谁张口吐舌呢？ 你们岂不是悖逆的儿女， 虚谎的种类呢？
Of whom do ye make your sport, And at whom do ye make wide the mouth, And draw out the tongue? Are ye not rebellious children, a treacherous brood?
5 你们在橡树中间，在各青翠树下欲火攻心； 在山谷间，在石穴下杀了儿女；
Burning with lust for idols Under every green tree, Slaying children in the valleys, Under the clefts of the rocks?
6 在谷中光滑石头里有你的分。 这些就是你所得的分； 你也向他浇了奠祭，献了供物， 因这事我岂能容忍吗？
With the smooth stones of the valley is thy portion; These, these are thy lot; Here thou pourest out thy drink-offering, And presentest thy meat-offering; Can I see such things, and be at rest?
7 你在高而又高的山上安设床榻， 也上那里去献祭。
Upon a high and lofty mountain settest thou thy bed; Thither dost thou go up to offer sacrifice;
8 你在门后，在门框后， 立起你的纪念； 向外人赤露，又上去扩张床榻， 与他们立约； 你在那里看见他们的床就甚喜爱。
Behind the doors and the posts dost thou place thy memorial; Thou departest from me, and uncoverest, and ascendest, and enlargest thy bed. Thou makest an agreement with them; Thou desirest their bed; Thou choosest a place.
Thou goest to the king with oil, And takest much precious perfume; Thou sendest thine ambassadors afar, Yea, down to the under-world. (Sheol h7585)
10 你因路远疲倦， 却不说这是枉然； 你以为有复兴之力， 所以不觉疲惫。
In the length of thy journeys thou hast wearied thyself, But thou sayest not, “I will desist”; Thou yet findest life in thy hand, Therefore thou art not discouraged.
11 你怕谁？因谁恐惧？ 竟说谎，不记念我， 又不将这事放在心上。 我不是许久闭口不言， 你仍不怕我吗？
On account of whom art thou anxious, and of whom art thou afraid, that thou hast proved false, And hast not remembered me, nor laid it to heart? Behold, I have been silent a long time; Therefore thou fearest me not.
12 我要指明你的公义； 至于你所行的都必与你无益。
But now I announce thy deliverance, And thy works do not profit thee.
13 你哀求的时候， 让你所聚集的拯救你吧！ 风要把他们刮散， 一口气要把他们都吹去。 但那投靠我的必得地土， 必承受我的圣山为业。
When thou criest, let thy host of idols deliver thee! But the wind shall bear them all away; A breath shall take them off; But he that putteth his trust in me Shall possess the land, And shall inherit my holy mountain.
14 耶和华要说： 你们修筑修筑，预备道路， 将绊脚石从我百姓的路中除掉。
Men shall say, Cast up, cast up, prepare the road; Remove every obstruction from the way of my people!
15 因为那至高至上、永远长存 名为圣者的如此说： 我住在至高至圣的所在， 也与心灵痛悔谦卑的人同居； 要使谦卑人的灵苏醒， 也使痛悔人的心苏醒。
For thus saith the high and lofty One That inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place; With him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit; To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
16 我必不永远相争，也不长久发怒， 恐怕我所造的人与灵性都必发昏。
For I will not contend forever, Nor will I be always angry; For life would fail before me, And the souls which I created.
17 因他贪婪的罪孽，我就发怒击打他； 我向他掩面发怒， 他却仍然随心背道。
For the guilt of his covetousness I was angry; I smote him, I hid myself, and was angry; But yet he went on perversely in the way of his heart.
18 我看见他所行的道，也要医治他； 又要引导他， 使他和那一同伤心的人再得安慰。
I have seen his ways, yet will I heal him; I will guide him, and I will restore comfort To him and to his mourners;
19 我造就嘴唇的果子； 愿平安康泰归与远处的人， 也归与近处的人； 并且我要医治他。 这是耶和华说的。
I create the fruit of the lips. Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is nigh, Saith Jehovah; I will heal him.
20 惟独恶人，好像翻腾的海， 不得平静； 其中的水常涌出污秽和淤泥来。
But the wicked is like the troubled sea, Which cannot rest, Whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
21 我的 神说：恶人必不得平安！
There is no peace, saith my God, for the wicked.
