以賽亞書 22
1 論異象谷的默示： 有甚麼事使你這滿城的人都上房頂呢？
The burden of the valley of vision. What does it mean to you, then, that each of you have even climbed to the rooftops?
2 你這滿處吶喊、大有喧嘩的城， 歡樂的邑啊， 你中間被殺的並不是被刀殺， 也不是因打仗死亡。
Filled with clamor, a busy city, an exultant city: your dead have not been slain by the sword, nor did they die in battle.
3 你所有的官長一同逃跑， 都為弓箭手所捆綁。 你中間一切被找到的都一同被捆綁； 他們本是逃往遠方的。
All your leaders have fled together, and they have been bound by hardship. All who were found were chained together. They have fled far away.
4 所以我說：你們轉眼不看我， 我要痛哭。 不要因我眾民的毀滅， 就竭力安慰我。
For this reason, I said: “Depart from me. I will weep bitterly. Make no attempt to console me, over the devastation of the daughter of my people.”
5 因為主－萬軍之耶和華使「異象谷」 有潰亂、踐踏、煩擾的日子。 城被攻破， 哀聲達到山間。
For it is a day of death, and of trampling, and of weeping to the Lord, the God of hosts, in the valley of vision: examining the wall and the magnificence above the mountain.
6 以攔帶着箭袋， 還有坐戰車的和馬兵； 吉珥揭開盾牌。
And Elam took up the quiver and the chariot of the horseman; and he stripped the wall of the shield.
7 你嘉美的谷遍滿戰車， 也有馬兵在城門前排列。
And your elect valleys will be filled with chariots, and the horsemen will position themselves at the gates.
8 他去掉猶大的遮蓋。 那日，你就仰望林庫內的軍器。
And the covering of Judah will be exposed, and in that day, you will see the weaponry of the forest house.
9 你們看見大衛城的破口很多，便聚積下池的水，
And you will see breaches in the city of David, for these have been multiplied. But you have gathered together the waters of the lower fish-pool.
10 又數點耶路撒冷的房屋，將房屋拆毀，修補城牆，
And you have numbered the houses of Jerusalem. And you have destroyed the houses in order to fortify the wall.
11 又在兩道城牆中間挖一個聚水池可盛舊池的水，卻不仰望做這事的主，也不顧念從古定這事的。
And you have made a pit between two walls for the waters of the ancient fish-pool. But you have not gazed upward to him who made it, and you have not considered, even from a distance, its Maker.
12 當那日，主－萬軍之耶和華叫人哭泣哀號， 頭上光禿，身披麻布。
And in that day, the Lord, the God of hosts, will call to weeping and mourning, to baldness and the wearing of sackcloth.
13 誰知，人倒歡喜快樂， 宰牛殺羊，吃肉喝酒，說： 我們吃喝吧！因為明天要死了。
But behold: gladness and rejoicing, the killing of calves and the slaughter of rams, the eating of meat and the drinking of wine: “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.”
14 萬軍之耶和華親自默示我說： 這罪孽直到你們死，斷不得赦免！ 這是主－萬軍之耶和華說的。
And the voice of the Lord of hosts was revealed in my ears: “Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you, until you die,” says the Lord, the God of hosts.
15 主－萬軍之耶和華這樣說：「你去見掌銀庫的，就是家宰舍伯那，對他說：
Thus says the Lord, the God of hosts: Go forth and enter to him who lives in the tabernacle, to Shebna, who is in charge of the temple, and you shall say to him:
16 『你在這裏做甚麼呢？有甚麼人竟在這裏鑿墳墓，就是在高處為自己鑿墳墓，在磐石中為自己鑿出安身之所？
“What are you here, or who are you claiming to be here? For you have hewn a sepulcher for yourself here. You have diligently hewn a memorial in a rock, as a tabernacle to yourself.
17 看哪，耶和華必像大有力的人，將你緊緊纏裹，竭力拋去。
Behold, the Lord will cause you to be carried away, like a domesticated rooster, and he will remove you, like an outer garment.
18 他必將你滾成一團，拋在寬闊之地，好像拋球一樣。你這主人家的羞辱，必在那裏坐你榮耀的車，也必在那裏死亡。
He will crown you with a crown of tribulation. He will toss you like a ball into a broad and spacious land. There you will die, and there the chariot of your glory will be, for it is a shame to the house of your Lord.”
19 我必趕逐你離開官職；你必從你的原位撤下。』
And I will expel you from your station, and I will depose you from your ministry.
20 「到那日，我必召我僕人希勒家的兒子以利亞敬來，
And this shall be in that day: I will call my servant Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah.
21 將你的外袍給他穿上，將你的腰帶給他繫緊，將你的政權交在他手中。他必作耶路撒冷居民和猶大家的父。
And I will clothe him with your vestment, and I will strengthen him with your belt, and I will give your authority to his hand. And he shall be like a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.
22 我必將大衛家的鑰匙放在他肩頭上。他開，無人能關；他關，無人能開。
And I will place the key of the house of David upon his shoulder. And when he opens, no one will close. And when he closes, no one will open.
23 我必將他安穩，像釘子釘在堅固處；他必作為他父家榮耀的寶座。
And I will fasten him like a peg in a trustworthy place. And he will be upon a throne of glory in the house of his father.
24 他父家所有的榮耀，連兒女帶子孫，都掛在他身上，好像一切小器皿，從杯子到酒瓶掛上一樣。
And they will suspend over him all the glory of his father’s house: various kinds of vessels and every little article, from the vessels of bowls even to every instrument of music.
25 萬軍之耶和華說：當那日，釘在堅固處的釘子必壓斜，被砍斷落地；掛在其上的重擔必被剪斷。因為這是耶和華說的。」
In that day, says the Lord of hosts, the peg which was fastened in a trustworthy place shall be taken away. And he will be broken, and he will fall, and he will perish, along with all that had depended upon him, because the Lord has spoken it.
