< 以賽亞書 17 >
1 論大馬士革的默示: 看哪,大馬士革已被廢棄,不再為城, 必變作亂堆。
The birthun of Damask. Lo! Damask schal faile to be a citee, and it schal be as an heep of stoonys in fallyng.
2 亞羅珥的城邑已被撇棄, 必成為牧羊之處; 羊在那裏躺臥,無人驚嚇。
The forsakun citees of Aroer schulen be to flockis; and tho schulen reste there, and noon schal be that schal make aferd.
3 以法蓮不再有保障; 大馬士革不再有國權; 亞蘭所剩下的 必像以色列人的榮耀消滅一樣。 這是萬軍之耶和華說的。
And help schal ceesse fro Effraym, and a rewme fro Damask; and the relifs of Sirie schulen be as the glorie of the sones of Israel, seith the Lord of oostis.
4 到那日,雅各的榮耀必至枵薄; 他肥胖的身體必漸瘦弱。
And it schal be, in that dai the glorie of Jacob schal be maad thinne, and the fatnesse of his fleisch shal fade.
5 就必像收割的人收斂禾稼, 用手割取穗子, 又像人在利乏音谷拾取遺落的穗子。
And it schal be as gaderyng togidere that that is left in heruest, and his arm schal gadere eeris of corn, and it schal be as sekynge eeris of corn in the valei of Raphaym.
6 其間所剩下的不多,好像人打橄欖樹- 在儘上的枝梢上只剩兩三個果子; 在多果樹的旁枝上只剩四五個果子。 這是耶和華-以色列的上帝說的。
And there schal be left in it as a rasyn, and as the schakyng doun of the fruyt of olyue tre, as of tweyne ether of thre olyue trees in the hiynesse of a braunche, ether of foure ether of fyue; in the cooppis therof schal be the fruyt therof, seith the Lord God of Israel.
7 當那日,人必仰望造他們的主,眼目重看以色列的聖者。
In that dai a man schal be bowid to his maker, and hise iyen schulen biholde to the hooli of Israel.
8 他們必不仰望祭壇,就是自己手所築的,也不重看自己指頭所做的,無論是木偶是日像。
And he schal not be bowid to the auteris, whiche hise hondis maden, and whiche hise fyngris wrouyten; he schal not biholde wodis, and templis of idols.
9 在那日,他們的堅固城必像樹林中和山頂上所撇棄的地方,就是從前在以色列人面前被人撇棄的。這樣,地就荒涼了。
In that dai the citees of strengthe therof schulen be forsakun as plowis, and cornes that weren forsakun of the face of the sones of Israel; and thou schalt be forsakun.
10 因你忘記救你的上帝, 不記念你能力的磐石; 所以,你栽上佳美的樹秧子, 插上異樣的栽子。
For thou hast foryete God, thi sauyour, and haddist not mynde on thi stronge helpere; therfor thou schalt plaunte a feithful plauntyng, and thou schalt sowe an alien seed.
11 栽種的日子,你周圍圈上籬笆, 又到早晨使你所種的開花; 但在愁苦極其傷痛的日子, 所收割的都飛去了。
In the dai of thi plauntyng schal be a wielde vyne, and erli thi seed schal floure; ripe corne is takun awei in the dai of eritage, and Israel schal make sorewe greuousli.
12 唉!多民鬨嚷,好像海浪匉訇; 列邦奔騰,好像猛水滔滔;
Wo to the multitude of many puplis, as the multitude of the see sownynge, and the noise of cumpenyes as the sown of many watris.
13 列邦奔騰,好像多水滔滔; 但上帝斥責他們,他們就遠遠逃避, 又被追趕,如同山上的風前糠, 又如暴風前的旋風土。
Puplis schulen sowne as the sown of flowynge watris, and God schal blame hym; and he schal fle fer, and he schal be rauyschid as the dust of hillis fro the face of the wynd, and as a whirlewynd bifor tempest.
14 到晚上有驚嚇,未到早晨他們就沒有了。這是擄掠我們之人所得的分,是搶奪我們之人的報應。
In the time of euentide, and lo! disturbling; in the morewtid, and he schal not abide. This is the part of hem that destrieden vs, and the part of hem that rauyschiden vs.
