< 以賽亞書 33 >

1 禍哉!你這毀滅人的, 自己倒不被毀滅; 行事詭詐的, 人倒不以詭詐待你。 你毀滅罷休了, 自己必被毀滅; 你行完了詭詐, 人必以詭詐待你。
Woe to thee, thou spoiler, who hast not been spoiled! Thou plunderer, who hast not been plundered! When thou hast ceased to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; When thou hast finished plundering, they shall plunder thee.
2 耶和華啊,求你施恩於我們; 我們等候你。 求你每早晨作我們的膀臂, 遭難的時候為我們的拯救。
O Jehovah, have mercy upon us! in thee do we trust; Be thou our strength every morning, Our salvation in the time of trouble.
3 喧嚷的響聲一發,眾民奔逃; 你一興起,列國四散。
At the voice of thy thunder the people flee; When thou dost arise, the nations are scattered.
4 你們所擄的必被斂盡, 好像螞蚱吃盡禾稼。 人要蹦在其上,好像蝗蟲一樣。
Your spoil shall be gathered, as the locust gathereth; As the locust runneth, so shall they run upon it.
5 耶和華被尊崇,因他居在高處; 他以公平公義充滿錫安。
Jehovah is exalted; Yea, he dwelleth on high; He filleth Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 你一生一世必得安穩- 有豐盛的救恩, 並智慧和知識; 你以敬畏耶和華為至寶。
There shall be security in thy times; Wisdom and knowledge shall be thy store of prosperity, And the fear of Jehovah, this shall be thy treasure!
7 看哪,他們的豪傑在外頭哀號; 求和的使臣痛痛哭泣。
Behold, the mighty men cry without: The ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
8 大路荒涼,行人止息; 敵人背約, 藐視城邑, 不顧人民。
The highways are desolate; The traveller ceaseth; He breaketh the covenant; he despiseth the cities; Of men he maketh no account.
9 地上悲哀衰殘; 黎巴嫩羞愧枯乾; 沙崙像曠野; 巴珊和迦密的樹林凋殘。
The land mourneth and languisheth; Lebanon is put to shame, and withered away; Sharon is like a desert, And Bashan and Carmel are stripped of their leaves.
10 耶和華說: 現在我要起來; 我要興起; 我要勃然而興。
Now will I arise, saith Jehovah, Now will I exalt myself, Now will I lift myself up.
11 你們要懷的是糠詷, 要生的是碎稭; 你們的氣就是吞滅自己的火。
Ye shall conceive chaff, and bring forth stubble; Your own wrath is the fire which shall devour you.
12 列邦必像已燒的石灰, 像已割的荊棘在火中焚燒。
The nations shall be burnt into lime; Like thorns cut down, they shall be consumed with fire.
13 你們遠方的人當聽我所行的; 你們近處的人當承認我的大能。
Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; Mark, ye that are near, my power!
14 錫安中的罪人都懼怕; 不敬虔的人被戰兢抓住。 我們中間誰能與吞滅的火同住? 我們中間誰能與永火同住呢?
The sinners in Zion are struck with dread; Terror hath seized upon the unrighteous: “Who among us can dwell in devouring fire? Who among us can dwell in everlasting flames?”
15 行事公義、說話正直、 憎惡欺壓的財利、 擺手不受賄賂、 塞耳不聽流血的話, 閉眼不看邪惡事的,
He that walketh in righteousness, And speaketh that which is right, That despiseth the gain of oppression, And shaketh his hands from bribery, That stoppeth his ears, so as not to hear of blood, And shutteth his eyes, so as not to behold iniquity.
16 他必居高處; 他的保障是磐石的堅壘; 他的糧必不缺乏; 他的水必不斷絕。
He shall dwell on high; The strongholds of rocks shall be his defence; His bread shall be given him; His water shall not fail.
17 你的眼必見王的榮美, 必見遼闊之地。
Thine eyes shall see the king in his glory They shall survey a wide-extended land.
18 你的心必思想那驚嚇的事, 自問說:記數目的在哪裏呢? 平貢銀的在哪裏呢? 數戍樓的在哪裏呢?
Thy heart shall meditate on the past terror: “Where now is the scribe? Where the weigher of tribute? Where he that numbered the towers?”
19 你必不見那強暴的民, 就是說話深奧,你不能明白, 言語呢喃,你不能懂得的。
Thou shalt see no more a fierce people, A people of a dark language, which thou couldst not hear, And of a barbarous tongue, which thou couldst not understand;
20 你要看錫安-我們守聖節的城! 你的眼必見耶路撒冷為安靜的居所, 為不挪移的帳幕, 橛子永不拔出, 繩索一根也不折斷。
Thou shalt see Zion, the city of our solemn feasts; Thine eyes shall behold Jerusalem, as a quiet habitation. A tent that shall never be moved, Whose stakes shall never be taken away, And whose cords shall never be broken.
21 在那裏,耶和華必顯威嚴與我們同在, 當作江河寬闊之地; 其中必沒有盪槳搖櫓的船來往, 也沒有威武的船經過。
For there the glorious Jehovah will be to us Instead of rivers and broad streams, Which no oared galley shall pass, And no gallant ship go through.
22 因為,耶和華是審判我們的; 耶和華是給我們設律法的; 耶和華是我們的王; 他必拯救我們。
For Jehovah is our judge; Jehovah is our lawgiver; Jehovah is our king; it is he that will save us.
23 你的繩索鬆開: 不能栽穩桅杆, 也不能揚起篷來。 那時許多擄來的物被分了; 瘸腿的把掠物奪去了。
Thy ropes hang loose; They cannot hold the mast-socket, Nor can they spread the sail. Then shall a great spoil be divided; Even the lame shall take the prey.
24 城內居民必不說:我病了; 其中居住的百姓,罪孽都赦免了。
No inhabitant shall say, I am sick; The people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
