以赛亚书 7
1 乌西雅的孙子、约坦的儿子、犹大王亚哈斯在位的时候，亚兰王利汛和利玛利的儿子、以色列王比加上来攻打耶路撒冷，却不能攻取。
And it comes to pass in the days of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah, king of Judah, [that] Rezin king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, have gone up to Jerusalem, to battle against it, and he is not able to fight against it.
2 有人告诉大卫家说：“亚兰与以法莲已经同盟。”王的心和百姓的心就都跳动，好像林中的树被风吹动一样。
And it is declared to the house of David, saying, “Aram has been led toward Ephraim,” and his heart and the heart of his people is moved, like the moving of trees of a forest by the presence of wind.
3 耶和华对以赛亚说：“你和你的儿子施亚雅述出去，到上池的水沟头，在漂布地的大路上，去迎接亚哈斯，
And YHWH says to Isaiah, “Now go forth to meet Ahaz, you and your son Shear-Jashub, to the end of the conduit of the upper pool, to the highway of the fuller’s field,
4 对他说：‘你要谨慎安静，不要因亚兰王利汛和利玛利的儿子这两个冒烟的火把头所发的烈怒害怕，也不要心里胆怯。
and you have said to him: Take heed, and be quiet, do not fear, And do not let your heart be timid, Because of these two tails of smoking brands, For the fierceness of the anger of Rezin and Aram, And the son of Remaliah.
5 因为亚兰和以法莲，并利玛利的儿子，设恶谋害你，
Because that Aram counseled evil against you, Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying,
6 说：我们可以上去攻击犹大，扰乱它，攻破它，在其中立他比勒的儿子为王。
We go up into Judah, and we distress it, And we divide it to ourselves, And we cause a king to reign in its midst—The son of Tabeal.
7 所以主耶和华如此说： 这所谋的必立不住， 也不得成就。
Thus said Lord YHWH: It does not stand, nor will it be!
8 原来亚兰的首城是大马士革； 大马士革的首领是利汛。 （六十五年之内，以法莲必然破坏，不再成为国民。）
For the head of Aram [is] Damascus, And the head of Damascus [is] Rezin, And within sixty-five years Is Ephraim broken from [being] a people.
9 以法莲的首城是撒马利亚； 撒马利亚的首领是利玛利的儿子。 你们若是不信， 定然不得立稳。’”
And the head of Ephraim [is] Samaria, And the head of Samaria [is] the son of Remaliah. If you do not give credence, Surely you are not steadfast.”
10 耶和华又晓谕亚哈斯说：
And YHWH adds to speak to Ahaz, saying,
“Ask for a sign from your God YHWH, Make the request deep, or make [it] high upwards.” (Sheol h7585)
12 亚哈斯说：“我不求；我不试探耶和华。”
And Ahaz says, “I do not ask nor try YHWH.”
13 以赛亚说：“大卫家啊，你们当听！你们使人厌烦岂算小事，还要使我的 神厌烦吗？
And he says, “Now hear, O house of David, Is it a little thing for you to weary men, That you also weary my God?
14 因此，主自己要给你们一个兆头，必有童女怀孕生子，给他起名叫以马内利。
Therefore the Lord Himself gives a sign to you, Behold, the virgin is conceiving, And is bringing forth a Son, And has called His Name Immanuel,
15 到他晓得弃恶择善的时候，他必吃奶油与蜂蜜。
He eats butter and honey, When He knows to refuse evil, and to fix on good.
16 因为在这孩子还不晓得弃恶择善之先，你所憎恶的那二王之地必致见弃。
For before the youth knows To refuse evil, and to fix on good, The land you are distressed with is forsaken, because of her two kings.
17 耶和华必使亚述王攻击你的日子临到你和你的百姓，并你的父家，自从以法莲离开犹大以来，未曾有这样的日子。
YHWH brings on you, and on your people, And on the house of your father, Days that have not come, Even from the day of the turning aside of Ephraim from Judah, By the king of Asshur.”
18 “那时，耶和华要发嘶声，使埃及江河源头的苍蝇和亚述地的蜂子飞来；
And it has come to pass in that day, YHWH hisses for a fly that [is] in the extremity of the brooks of Egypt, And for a bee that [is] in the land of Asshur.
19 都必飞来，落在荒凉的谷内、磐石的穴里，和一切荆棘篱笆中，并一切的草场上。
And they have come, and all of them rested in the desolate valleys, And in holes of the rocks, and on all the thorns, And on all the commendable things.
20 “那时，主必用大河外赁的剃头刀，就是亚述王，剃去头发和脚上的毛，并要剃净胡须。
In that day the Lord shaves, By a razor that is hired beyond the river, By the king of Asshur, The head, and the hair of the feet, Indeed, it also consumes the beard.
21 “那时，一个人要养活一只母牛犊，两只母绵羊；
And it has come to pass in that day, A man keeps alive a heifer of the herd, And two of the flock,
22 因为出的奶多，他就得吃奶油，在境内所剩的人都要吃奶油与蜂蜜。
And it has come to pass, He eats butter from the abundance of the yielding of milk, For everyone who is left in the heart of the land eats butter and honey.
23 “从前，凡种一千棵葡萄树、值银一千舍客勒的地方，到那时必长荆棘和蒺藜。
And it has come to pass in that day, Every place where there are one thousand vines, At one thousand pieces of silver, Is for briers and for thorns.
24 人上那里去，必带弓箭，因为遍地满了荆棘和蒺藜。
He comes there with arrows and with bow, Because all the land is brier and thorn.
25 所有用锄刨挖的山地，你因怕荆棘和蒺藜，不敢上那里去；只可成了放牛之处，为羊践踏之地。”
And all the hills that are kept in order with a mattock, There does not come [for] fear of brier and thorn, And it has been for the sending forth of ox, And for the treading of sheep!
