以赛亚书 1
1 当乌西雅、约坦、亚哈斯、希西家作犹大王的时候，亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚得默示，论到犹大和耶路撒冷。
The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 天哪，要听！地啊，侧耳而听！ 因为耶和华说： 我养育儿女，将他们养大， 他们竟悖逆我。
Hear, heavens, and listen, earth; for the LORD has spoken: “I have nourished and brought up children and they have rebelled against me.
3 牛认识主人， 驴认识主人的槽， 以色列却不认识； 我的民却不留意。
The ox knows his owner, and the donkey his master’s crib; but Israel doesn’t know. My people don’t consider.”
4 嗐！犯罪的国民， 担着罪孽的百姓； 行恶的种类， 败坏的儿女！ 他们离弃耶和华， 藐视以色列的圣者， 与他生疏，往后退步。
Ah sinful nation, a people loaded with iniquity, offspring of evildoers, children who deal corruptly! They have forsaken the LORD. They have despised the Holy One of Israel. They are estranged and backward.
5 你们为什么屡次悖逆， 还要受责打吗？ 你们已经满头疼痛， 全心发昏。
Why should you be beaten more, that you revolt more and more? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
6 从脚掌到头顶， 没有一处完全的， 尽是伤口、青肿，与新打的伤痕， 都没有收口，没有缠裹， 也没有用膏滋润。
From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it, but wounds, welts, and open sores. They haven’t been closed, bandaged, or soothed with oil.
7 你们的地土已经荒凉； 你们的城邑被火焚毁。 你们的田地在你们眼前为外邦人所侵吞， 既被外邦人倾覆就成为荒凉。
Your country is desolate. Your cities are burned with fire. Strangers devour your land in your presence and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
8 仅存锡安城， 好像葡萄园的草棚， 瓜田的茅屋， 被围困的城邑。
The daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a field of melons, like a besieged city.
9 若不是万军之耶和华给我们稍留余种， 我们早已像所多玛、蛾摩拉的样子了。
Unless the LORD of Hosts had left to us a very small remnant, we would have been as Sodom. We would have been like Gomorrah.
10 你们这所多玛的官长啊， 要听耶和华的话！ 你们这蛾摩拉的百姓啊， 要侧耳听我们 神的训诲！
Hear the LORD’s word, you rulers of Sodom! Listen to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah!
11 耶和华说： 你们所献的许多祭物与我何益呢？ 公绵羊的燔祭和肥畜的脂油， 我已经够了； 公牛的血，羊羔的血，公山羊的血， 我都不喜悦。
“What are the multitude of your sacrifices to me?”, says the LORD. “I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed animals. I don’t delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs, or of male goats.
12 你们来朝见我， 谁向你们讨这些， 使你们践踏我的院宇呢？
When you come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand, to trample my courts?
13 你们不要再献虚浮的供物。 香品是我所憎恶的； 月朔和安息日，并宣召的大会， 也是我所憎恶的； 作罪孽，又守严肃会， 我也不能容忍。
Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is an abomination to me. New moons, Sabbaths, and convocations— I can’t stand evil assemblies.
14 你们的月朔和节期，我心里恨恶， 我都以为麻烦； 我担当，便不耐烦。
My soul hates your New Moons and your appointed feasts. They are a burden to me. I am weary of bearing them.
15 你们举手祷告，我必遮眼不看； 就是你们多多地祈祷，我也不听。 你们的手都满了杀人的血。
When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you. Yes, when you make many prayers, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood.
16 你们要洗濯、自洁， 从我眼前除掉你们的恶行， 要止住作恶，
Wash yourselves. Make yourself clean. Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes. Cease to do evil.
17 学习行善， 寻求公平， 解救受欺压的； 给孤儿伸冤， 为寡妇辨屈。
Learn to do well. Seek justice. Relieve the oppressed. Defend the fatherless. Plead for the widow.”
18 耶和华说： 你们来，我们彼此辩论。 你们的罪虽像朱红，必变成雪白； 虽红如丹颜，必白如羊毛。
“Come now, and let’s reason together,” says the LORD: “Though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 你们若甘心听从， 必吃地上的美物，
If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the land;
20 若不听从，反倒悖逆， 必被刀剑吞灭。 这是耶和华亲口说的。
but if you refuse and rebel, you will be devoured with the sword; for the LORD’s mouth has spoken it.”
21 可叹，忠信的城变为妓女！ 从前充满了公平， 公义居在其中， 现今却有凶手居住。
How the faithful city has become a prostitute! She was full of justice. Righteousness lodged in her, but now there are murderers.
22 你的银子变为渣滓； 你的酒用水搀对。
Your silver has become dross, your wine mixed with water.
23 你的官长居心悖逆， 与盗贼作伴， 各都喜爱贿赂， 追求赃私。 他们不为孤儿伸冤； 寡妇的案件也不得呈到他们面前。
Your princes are rebellious and companions of thieves. Everyone loves bribes and follows after rewards. They don’t defend the fatherless, neither does the cause of the widow come to them.
24 因此，主—万军之耶和华、 以色列的大能者说： 哎！我要向我的对头雪恨， 向我的敌人报仇。
Therefore the Lord, GOD of Hosts, the Mighty One of Israel, says: “Ah, I will get relief from my adversaries, and avenge myself on my enemies.
25 我必反手加在你身上， 炼尽你的渣滓， 除净你的杂质。
I will turn my hand on you, thoroughly purge away your dross, and will take away all your tin.
26 我也必复还你的审判官，像起初一样， 复还你的谋士，像起先一般。 然后，你必称为公义之城， 忠信之邑。
I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called ‘The city of righteousness, a faithful town.’
27 锡安必因公平得蒙救赎； 其中归正的人必因公义得蒙救赎。
Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and her converts with righteousness.
28 但悖逆的和犯罪的必一同败亡； 离弃耶和华的必致消灭。
But the destruction of transgressors and sinners shall be together, and those who forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
29 那等人必因你们所喜爱的橡树抱愧； 你们必因所选择的园子蒙羞。
For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which you have desired, and you shall be confounded for the gardens that you have chosen.
30 因为，你们必如叶子枯干的橡树， 好像无水浇灌的园子。
For you shall be as an oak whose leaf fades, and as a garden that has no water.
31 有权势的必如麻瓤； 他的工作好像火星， 都要一同焚毁，无人扑灭。
The strong will be like tinder, and his work like a spark. They will both burn together, and no one will quench them.”
