以赛亚书 61
1 主耶和华的灵在我身上； 因为耶和华用膏膏我， 叫我传好信息给谦卑的人， 差遣我医好伤心的人， 报告被掳的得释放， 被囚的出监牢；
The spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me, For Jehovah hath anointed me; He hath sent me to publish good tidings to the distressed, To bind up the broken-hearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 报告耶和华的恩年， 和我们 神报仇的日子； 安慰一切悲哀的人，
To proclaim the year of mercy from Jehovah, And the day of vengeance from our God; To comfort all that mourn;
3 赐华冠与锡安悲哀的人，代替灰尘； 喜乐油代替悲哀； 赞美衣代替忧伤之灵； 使他们称为“公义树”， 是耶和华所栽的，叫他得荣耀。
To give gladness to the mourners in Zion; To give them a beautiful crown instead of ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, So that they shall be called blessed terebinth-trees, The plantation of Jehovah for his glory.
4 他们必修造已久的荒场， 建立先前凄凉之处， 重修历代荒凉之城。
They shall build up the old ruins; They shall raise up the ancient desolations; They shall repair the cities laid waste, The desolations of many generations.
5 那时，外人必起来牧放你们的羊群； 外邦人必作你们耕种田地的， 修理葡萄园的。
Strangers shall stand up and feed your flocks, And the sons of the alien shall be your ploughmen and vine-dressers;
6 你们倒要称为耶和华的祭司； 人必称你们为我们 神的仆役。 你们必吃用列国的财物， 因得他们的荣耀自夸。
But ye shall be named the priests of Jehovah, Men shall call you the ministers of our God. Ye shall eat the riches of the nations, And in their glory shall ye make your boast.
7 你们必得加倍的好处，代替所受的羞辱； 分中所得的喜乐，必代替所受的凌辱。 在境内必得加倍的产业； 永远之乐必归与你们。
For your shame shall ye have a double reward; And for ignominy ye shall rejoice in your portion; Therefore in your land ye shall possess double; Everlasting joy shall be your portion.
8 因为我—耶和华喜爱公平， 恨恶抢夺和罪孽； 我要凭诚实施行报应， 并要与我的百姓立永约。
For I, Jehovah, love justice, I hate rapine and iniquity, I will give them their reward with faithfulness, And an everlasting covenant will I make with them.
9 他们的后裔必在列国中被人认识； 他们的子孙在众民中也是如此。 凡看见他们的必认他们是耶和华赐福的后裔。
Their race shall be illustrious among the nations, And their offspring among the people; All that see them shall acknowledge That they are a race which Jehovah hath blessed.
10 我因耶和华大大欢喜； 我的心靠 神快乐。 因他以拯救为衣给我穿上， 以公义为袍给我披上， 好像新郎戴上华冠， 又像新妇佩戴妆饰。
“I will greatly rejoice in Jehovah; My soul shall exult in my God; For he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation; He hath covered me with the mantle of deliverance. As the bridegroom decketh himself with his turban, And as the bride adorneth herself with her jewels.”
11 田地怎样使百谷发芽， 园子怎样使所种的发生， 主耶和华必照样 使公义和赞美在万民中发出。
For as the earth putteth forth her shoots, And as a garden causeth its plants to spring forth, So shall the Lord Jehovah cause salvation to spring forth; And praise before all the nations.
