< 以賽亞書 52 >

1 錫安哪,興起!興起! 披上你的能力! 聖城耶路撒冷啊,穿上你華美的衣服! 因為從今以後, 未受割禮、不潔淨的必不再進入你中間。
Rise up, Rise up! Clothe yourself in strength, O Zion! Put on the garments of your glory, O Jerusalem, the city of the Holy One! For the uncircumcised and the unclean will no longer pass through you.
2 耶路撒冷啊,要抖下塵土! 起來坐在位上! 錫安被擄的居民哪, 要解開你頸項的鎖鍊!
Shake yourself from the dust! Arise and sit up, O Jerusalem! Loose the chains from your neck, O captive daughter of Zion!
3 耶和華如此說:「你們是無價被賣的,也必無銀被贖。
For thus says the Lord: You were sold for nothing, and you will be redeemed without money.
4 主耶和華如此說:起先我的百姓下到埃及,在那裏寄居,又有亞述人無故欺壓他們。
For thus says the Lord God: My people descended into Egypt, in the beginning, in order to sojourn there. But the Assyrian oppressed them, without any cause at all.
5 耶和華說:我的百姓既是無價被擄去,如今我在這裏做甚麼呢?耶和華說:轄制他們的人呼叫,我的名整天受褻瀆。
And now, what is left for me here, says the Lord? For my people have been taken away without cause. Their lords treat them unjustly, says the Lord. And my name is being continually blasphemed all day long.
6 所以,我的百姓必知道我的名;到那日他們必知道說這話的就是我。看哪,是我!」
Because of this, my people will know my name, in that day. For it is I myself who is speaking. Behold, I am here.
7 那報佳音,傳平安, 報好信,傳救恩的, 對錫安說:你的上帝作王了! 這人的腳登山何等佳美!
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger and the preacher of peace! Announcing good and preaching peace, they are saying to Zion, “Your God will reign!”
8 聽啊,你守望之人的聲音, 他們揚起聲來,一同歌唱; 因為耶和華歸回錫安的時候, 他們必親眼看見。
It is the voice of your watchmen. They have lifted up their voice. They will praise together. For they will see eye to eye, when the Lord converts Zion.
9 耶路撒冷的荒場啊, 要發起歡聲,一同歌唱; 因為耶和華安慰了他的百姓, 救贖了耶路撒冷。
Be glad and rejoice together, O deserts of Jerusalem! For the Lord has consoled his people. He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 耶和華在萬國眼前露出聖臂; 地極的人都看見我們上帝的救恩了。
The Lord has prepared his holy arm, in the sight of all the Gentiles. And all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.
11 你們離開吧!離開吧! 從巴比倫出來。 不要沾不潔淨的物; 要從其中出來。 你們扛抬耶和華器皿的人哪, 務要自潔。
Depart, depart, get out of here! Do not be willing to touch what is polluted. Go out from her midst! Be cleansed, you who bear the vessels of the Lord.
12 你們出來必不致急忙, 也不致奔逃。 因為,耶和華必在你們前頭行; 以色列的上帝必作你們的後盾。
For you will not go out in a tumult, nor will you take flight in a hurry. For the Lord will precede you, and the God of Israel will gather you.
13 我的僕人行事必有智慧, 必被高舉上升, 且成為至高。
Behold, my servant will understand; he will be exalted and lifted up, and he will be very sublime.
14 許多人因他驚奇; 他的面貌比別人憔悴; 他的形容比世人枯槁。
Just as they were stupefied over you, so will his countenance be without glory among men, and his appearance, among the sons of men.
15 這樣,他必洗淨許多國民; 君王要向他閉口。 因所未曾傳與他們的,他們必看見; 未曾聽見的,他們要明白。
He will sprinkle many nations; kings will close their mouth because of him. And those to whom he was not described, have seen. And those who have not heard, have considered.
