Isaiah 27
1 In that day Jehovah with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the swift serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent; and he will slay the monster that is in the sea.
到那日，耶和華必用他剛硬有力的大刀刑罰鱷魚－就是那快行的蛇，刑罰鱷魚－就是那曲行的蛇，並殺海中的大魚。
2 In that day: A vineyard of wine, sing ye unto it.
當那日，有出酒的葡萄園， 你們要指這園唱歌說：
3 I Jehovah am its keeper; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.
我－耶和華是看守葡萄園的； 我必時刻澆灌， 晝夜看守， 免得有人損害。
4 Wrath is not in me: would that the briers and thorns were against me in battle! I would march upon them, I would burn them together.
我心中不存忿怒。 惟願荊棘蒺藜與我交戰， 我就勇往直前， 把它一同焚燒。
5 Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; [yea], let him make peace with me.
不然，讓它持住我的能力， 使它與我和好， 願它與我和好。
6 In days to come shall Jacob take root; Israel shall blossom and bud; and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
將來雅各要扎根， 以色列要發芽開花； 他們的果實必充滿世界。
7 Hath he smitten them as he smote those that smote them? or are they slain according to the slaughter of them that were slain by them?
主擊打他們， 豈像擊打那些擊打他們的人嗎？ 他們被殺戮， 豈像被他們所殺戮的嗎？
8 In measure, when thou sendest them away, thou dost contend with them; he hath removed [them] with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.
你打發他們去， 是相機宜與他們相爭； 颳東風的日子， 就用暴風將他們逐去。
9 Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be forgiven, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, [so that] the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.
所以，雅各的罪孽得赦免， 他的罪過得除掉的果效，全在乎此： 就是他叫祭壇的石頭變為打碎的灰石， 以致木偶和日像不再立起。
10 For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.
因為堅固城變為淒涼， 成了撇下離棄的居所，像曠野一樣； 牛犢必在那裏吃草， 在那裏躺臥，並吃盡其中的樹枝。
11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have compassion upon them, and he that formed them will show them no favor.
枝條枯乾，必被折斷； 婦女要來點火燒着。 因為這百姓蒙昧無知， 所以，創造他們的必不憐恤他們； 造成他們的也不施恩與他們。
12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will beat off [his fruit] from the flood of the River unto the brook of Egypt; and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
以色列人哪，到那日，耶和華必從大河，直到埃及小河，將你們一一地收集，如同人打樹拾果一樣。
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come that were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and they that were outcasts in the land of Egypt; and they shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
當那日，必大發角聲，在亞述地將要滅亡的，並在埃及地被趕散的，都要來，他們就在耶路撒冷聖山上敬拜耶和華。
