< 以賽亞書 19 >
1 論埃及的默示: 看哪,耶和華乘駕快雲, 臨到埃及。 埃及的偶像在他面前戰兢; 埃及人的心在裏面消化。
The birthun of Egipt. Lo! the Lord schal stie on a liyt cloude, and he schal entre in to Egipt; and the symilacris of Egipt schulen be mouyd fro his face, and the herte of Egipt schal faile in the myddis therof.
2 我必激動埃及人攻擊埃及人- 弟兄攻擊弟兄, 鄰舍攻擊鄰舍; 這城攻擊那城, 這國攻擊那國。
And Y schal make Egipcians to renne togidere ayens Egipcians, and a man schal fiyte ayens his brother, and a man ayens his frend, a citee ayens a citee, and a rewme ayens a rewme.
3 埃及人的心神必在裏面耗盡; 我必敗壞他們的謀略。 他們必求問偶像和念咒的、 交鬼的、行巫術的。
And the spirit of Egipt schal be brokun in the entrailis therof, and Y schal caste doun the councel therof; and thei schulen axe her symylacris, and her false diuinouris, and her men that han vncleene spiritis spekinge in the wombe, and her dyuynouris bi sacrifices maad on auteris to feendis.
4 我必將埃及人交在殘忍主的手中; 強暴王必轄制他們。 這是主-萬軍之耶和華說的。
And Y schal bitake Egipt in to the hond of cruel lordis, and a strong kyng schal be lord of hem, seith the Lord God of oostis.
And watir of the see schal wexe drie, and the flood schal be desolat, and schal be dried.
6 江河要變臭; 埃及的河水都必減少枯乾。 葦子和蘆荻都必衰殘;
And the floodis schulen faile, and the strondis of the feeldis schulen be maad thynne, and schulen be dried; a rehed and spier schal fade.
7 靠尼羅河旁的草田, 並沿尼羅河所種的田,都必枯乾。 莊稼被風吹去,歸於無有。
The botme of watir schal be maad nakid, and stremys fro her welle; and the moiste place of al seed schal be dried, schal waxe drie, and schal not be.
8 打魚的必哀哭。 在尼羅河一切釣魚的必悲傷; 在水上撒網的必都衰弱。
And fischeris schulen morne, and alle that casten hook in to the flood, schulen weile; and thei that spreden abrood a net on the face of watris, schulen fade.
Thei schulen be schent, that wrouyten flex, foldynge and ordeynynge sutil thingis.
And the watir places therof schulen be drye; alle that maden poondis to take fischis, schulen be schent.
11 瑣安的首領極其愚昧; 法老大有智慧的謀士, 所籌劃的成為愚謀。 你們怎敢對法老說: 我是智慧人的子孫, 我是古王的後裔?
The fonned princes of Tafnys, the wise counselouris of Farao, yauen vnwise counsel; hou schulen ye seie to Farao, Y am the sone of wise men, the sone of elde kyngis?
12 你的智慧人在哪裏呢? 萬軍之耶和華向埃及所定的旨意, 他們可以知道,可以告訴你吧!
Where ben now thi wise men? Telle thei to thee, and schewe thei, what the Lord of oostis thouyte on Egipt.
13 瑣安的首領都變為愚昧; 挪弗的首領都受了迷惑。 當埃及支派房角石的, 使埃及人走錯了路。
The princes of Tafnys ben maad foolis; the princes of Memphis fadiden; thei disseyueden Egipt, a corner of the puplis therof.
14 耶和華使乖謬的靈攙入埃及中間; 首領使埃及一切所做的都有差錯, 好像醉酒之人嘔吐的時候東倒西歪一樣。
The Lord meddlid a spirit of errour in the myddis therof; and thei maden Egipt for to erre in al his werk, as a drunkun man and spuynge errith.
15 埃及中,無論是頭與尾, 棕枝與蘆葦,所做之工都不成就。
And werk schal not be to Egipt, that it make an heed and tail bowynge and refreynynge.
16 到那日,埃及人必像婦人一樣,他們必因萬軍之耶和華在埃及以上所掄的手,戰兢懼怕。
In that dai Egipt schal be as wymmen, and thei schulen be astonyed, and schulen drede of the face of the mouynge of the hoond of the Lord of oostis, which he mouede on it.
17 猶大地必使埃及驚恐,向誰提起猶大地,誰就懼怕。這是因萬軍之耶和華向埃及所定的旨意。
And the lond of Juda schal be to Egipt in to drede; ech that schal thenke on it, schal drede of the face of the counsel of the Lord of oostis, whiche he thouyte on it.
18 當那日,埃及地必有五城的人說迦南的方言,又指着萬軍之耶和華起誓。有一城必稱為「滅亡城」。
In that dai fyue citees schulen be in the lond of Egipt, and schulen speke with the tunge of Canaan, and schulen swere bi the Lord of oostis; the citee of the sunne schal be clepid oon.
19 當那日,在埃及地中必有為耶和華築的一座壇;在埃及的邊界上必有為耶和華立的一根柱。
In that dai the auter of the Lord schal be in the myddis of the lond of Egipt, and the title of the Lord schal be bisidis the ende therof;
20 這都要在埃及地為萬軍之耶和華作記號和證據。埃及人因為受人的欺壓哀求耶和華,他就差遣一位救主作護衛者,拯救他們。
and it schal be in to a signe and witnessyng to the Lord of oostis, in the lond of Egipt. For thei schulen crie to the Lord fro the face of the troblere, and he schal sende a sauyour to hem, and a forfiytere, that schal delyuere hem.
21 耶和華必被埃及人所認識。在那日,埃及人必認識耶和華,也要獻祭物和供物敬拜他,並向耶和華許願還願。
And the Lord schal be knowun of Egipt, and Egipcians schulen knowe the Lord in that dai; and thei schulen worschipe hym in sacrifices and yiftis, and thei schulen make vowis to the Lord, and thei schulen paie.
22 耶和華必擊打埃及,又擊打又醫治,埃及人就歸向耶和華。他必應允他們的禱告,醫治他們。
And the Lord schal smyte Egipt with a wounde, and schal make it hool; and Egipcians schulen turne ayen to the Lord, and he schal be plesid in hem, and he schal make hem hool.
23 當那日,必有從埃及通亞述去的大道。亞述人要進入埃及,埃及人也進入亞述;埃及人要與亞述人一同敬拜耶和華。
In that dai a wei schal be fro Egipt in to Assiriens, and Egipcians schulen serue Assur; and Assur schal entre in to Egipt, and Egipt in to Assiriens.
24 當那日,以色列必與埃及、亞述三國一律,使地上的人得福;
In that dai Israel schal be the thridde to Egipt and to Assur, the blessyng in the myddil of erthe;
25 因為萬軍之耶和華賜福給他們,說:「埃及-我的百姓,亞述-我手的工作,以色列-我的產業,都有福了!」
whom the Lord of oostis blesside, seiynge, Blessid be my puple of Egipt, and the werk of myn hondis be to Assiriens; but myne eritage be to Israel.
