以賽亞書 66
1 耶和華如此說： 天是我的座位； 地是我的腳凳。 你們要為我造何等的殿宇？ 哪裏是我安息的地方呢？
This is what the Lord says: Heaven is my throne, and the earth is where I place my feet. So where will this house be that you're going to build for me? Where will I lie down to rest?
2 耶和華說：這一切都是我手所造的， 所以就都有了。 但我所看顧的， 就是虛心痛悔、 因我話而戰兢的人。
I made everything; that's how it all came into existence, says the Lord. Those I look favorably on are humble and repentant, and they tremble when I speak.
3 假冒為善的宰牛，好像殺人， 獻羊羔，好像打折狗項， 獻供物，好像獻豬血， 燒乳香，好像稱頌偶像。 這等人揀選自己的道路， 心裏喜悅行可憎惡的事。
When someone sacrifices a bull it's like human sacrifice, and when someone sacrifices a lamb, it's like breaking the neck of a dog. When they present a grain offering it's like presenting pig's blood, and when they burn incense it's like worshiping an idol. Since they have chosen to act like this and to love such disgusting things,
4 我也必揀選迷惑他們的事， 使他們所懼怕的臨到他們； 因為我呼喚，無人答應； 我說話，他們不聽從； 反倒行我眼中看為惡的， 揀選我所不喜悅的。
I will also choose to punish them severely and to terrify them, because I called out to them but no one answered; I spoke to them, but no one listened. Instead they did what's evil in my sight, choosing to do what I hate.
5 你們因耶和華言語戰兢的人當聽他的話： 你們的弟兄－就是恨惡你們， 因我名趕出你們的，曾說： 願耶和華得榮耀， 使我們得見你們的喜樂； 但蒙羞的究竟是他們！
Listen to what the Lord has to say, those of you who tremble when he speaks. This is what some of your people who hate you and throw you out have said, “Let the Lord be glorified, so we can see how happy you are!” but it's them who are going to be humiliated.
6 有喧嘩的聲音出自城中！ 有聲音出於殿中！ 是耶和華向仇敵施行報應的聲音！
Hear all the shouting from the city! Hear all the noise from the Temple! It's the sound of the Lord giving his enemies back what they deserve.
7 錫安未曾劬勞就生產， 未覺疼痛就生出男孩。
She gave birth before she went into labor, she delivered a boy before the pains came.
8 國豈能一日而生？ 民豈能一時而產？ 因為錫安一劬勞便生下兒女， 這樣的事誰曾聽見？ 誰曾看見呢？
Who has ever heard of anything like this? Who has seen this kind of thing before? Can a country be delivered in a day, can a nation be born in a moment? Yet as soon as Zion went into labor, she gave birth to her children.
9 耶和華說：我既使她臨產， 豈不使她生產呢？ 你的上帝說：我既使她生產， 豈能使她閉胎不生呢？
Would I bring a baby to the point of birth and then not deliver it? the Lord asks. Would I who deliver the baby stop it from being born? the Lord asks again.
10 你們愛慕耶路撒冷的 都要與她一同歡喜快樂； 你們為她悲哀的 都要與她一同樂上加樂；
Celebrate with Jerusalem and be happy for her, everyone who loves her; celebrate with her and sing for joy, everyone who mourns over her.
11 使你們在她安慰的懷中吃奶得飽， 使他們得她豐盛的榮耀， 猶如擠奶，滿心喜樂。
Like a baby you can nurse at her breasts that bring comfort, drinking deeply and being satisfied by all she has to give.
12 耶和華如此說： 我要使平安延及她，好像江河， 使列國的榮耀延及她，如同漲溢的河。 你們要從中享受； 你們必蒙抱在肋旁，搖弄在膝上。
This is what the Lord says: Watch! I'm going to give her peace and prosperity like a flowing river, the wealth of nations like an overflowing stream. You will nurse and be carried on her hip and played with on her knees.
13 母親怎樣安慰兒子，我就照樣安慰你們； 你們也必因耶路撒冷得安慰。
Like a mother comforting her child, I will comfort you. You will be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 你們看見，就心中快樂； 你們的骨頭必得滋潤像嫩草一樣； 而且耶和華的手向他僕人所行的必被人知道； 他也要向仇敵發惱恨。
When you see this happening, you'll be happy deep inside, and you'll prosper like growing grass. The Lord's power will be recognized as blessing his servants and cursing his enemies.
15 看哪，耶和華必在火中降臨； 他的車輦像旋風， 以烈怒施行報應， 以火焰施行責罰；
Look! The Lord is coming surrounded by fire, his chariots whirling like the wind, to express his anger with fury, to give his reprimand in flames of fire.
16 因為耶和華在一切有血氣的人身上， 必以火與刀施行審判； 被耶和華所殺的必多。
The Lord will execute judgment on everyone by fire and by his sword. There will be many killed by the Lord.
17 「那些分別為聖、潔淨自己的，進入園內跟在其中一個人的後頭，吃豬肉和倉鼠並可憎之物，他們必一同滅絕；這是耶和華說的。
Those who dedicate themselves and make themselves pure in order to enter the sacred gardens, to worship the idol placed in the center, and to eat pork and vermin and rats and other disgusting things—they will all die together, says the Lord.
18 「我知道他們的行為和他們的意念。時候將到，我必將萬民萬族聚來，看見我的榮耀，
I know what they're doing and what they're thinking. I will soon come to gather all nations and peoples of different languages. They will come and see my glory.
19 我要顯神蹟在他們中間。逃脫的，我要差到列國去，就是到他施、普勒、拉弓的路德和土巴、雅完，並素來沒有聽見我名聲、沒有看見我榮耀遼遠的海島；他們必將我的榮耀傳揚在列國中。
I will give them a sign, and I will send some who survive to the nations. They will go to Tarshish, to the Libyans and Lydians (who are famous as archers), to Tubal and Greece, and to the distant lands that haven't heard about me or seen my glory. They will announce my glory among the nations.
20 他們必將你們的弟兄從列國中送回，使他們或騎馬，或坐車，坐轎，騎騾子，騎獨峰駝，到我的聖山耶路撒冷，作為供物獻給耶和華，好像以色列人用潔淨的器皿盛供物奉到耶和華的殿中；這是耶和華說的。
They will bring back all your people from every nations to my holy mountain in Jerusalem as an offering to the Lord. They will come on horses, in chariots and wagons, and on mules and camels, says the Lord. They will bring them in the same way the Israelites bring their grain offerings to the Lord's Temple using vessels that are ceremonially clean.
21 耶和華說：我也必從他們中間取人為祭司，為利未人。」
I will choose some of them as priests and Levites, says the Lord.
22 耶和華說：我所要造的新天新地， 怎樣在我面前長存； 你們的後裔和你們的名字也必照樣長存。
As the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, will last forever, so your descendants and your reputation will also last forever, says the Lord.
23 每逢月朔、安息日， 凡有血氣的必來在我面前下拜。 這是耶和華說的。
Everyone will come and worship me, from one New Moon to the next, and from one Sabbath to the next, says the Lord.
24 他們必出去觀看那些違背我人的屍首； 因為他們的蟲是不死的； 他們的火是不滅的； 凡有血氣的都必憎惡他們。
They will go out and see the dead bodies of those who rebelled against me. The worms that eat them won't die, the fire that burns them won't go out, and everyone who sees them will be horrified.
