Isaiah 60
1 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.
耶路撒冷啊！起來炫耀罷！因為你的光明已經來到，上主的榮耀已經照耀在你身上。
2 For behold, darkness covers the earth, and thick darkness is over the peoples; but the LORD will rise upon you, and His glory will appear over you.
看啊！黑暗籠罩著大地，陰雲遮蔽著萬民；但上主卻照耀著你，他的榮耀要彰顯在你的身上。
3 Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
萬民要奔赴你的光明，眾王要投奔你升起的光輝。
4 Lift up your eyes and look around: They all gather and come to you; your sons will come from afar, and your daughters will be carried on the arm.
舉起你的眼向四方觀望罷！他們都聚集來到你這裏：你的眾子要從遠方而來，你的女兒要被抱回來。
5 Then you will look and be radiant, and your heart will tremble and swell with joy, because the riches of the sea will be brought to you, and the wealth of the nations will come to you.
那時，你見到這情形，必要喜形於色，你的心靈必要激動而舒暢，因為海洋的珍寶都要歸於你，萬民的財富都要歸你所有。
6 Caravans of camels will cover your land, young camels of Midian and Ephah, and all from Sheba will come, bearing gold and frankincense and proclaiming the praises of the LORD.
成群結隊的駱駝，以及米德楊和厄法的獨峰駝要遮蔽你，牠們都是由舍巴滿載黃金和乳香而來，宣揚上主的榮耀。
7 All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered to you; the rams of Nebaioth will serve you and go up on My altar with acceptance; I will adorn My glorious house.
刻達爾的一切羊群都要聚在你前，乃巴約特的公羊都要供你使用；牠們要登上我的祭壇作為我歡悅的祭品，以光榮我榮耀的處所。
8 Who are these who fly like clouds, like doves to their shelters?
那些像雲彩飛來，像鴿子回籠的是誰﹖
9 Surely the islands will wait for Me, with the ships of Tarshish in the lead, to bring your children from afar, with their silver and gold, to the honor of the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, for He has glorified you.
那是為我集合起來的船隻，塔爾史士的船隻為首，從遠處帶來了你的子女，以及他們的金銀；這都是為了上主你的天主的名，為了那光榮你的以色列的聖者的緣故。
10 Foreigners will rebuild your walls, and their kings will serve you. Although I struck you in anger, yet in favor I will show you mercy.
外邦的子民要修建你的城垣，他們的君王要來事奉你，因為我在怒氣中打擊了你，但我在慈悲中又憐憫了你。
11 Your gates will always stand open; they will never be shut, day or night, so that the wealth of the nations may be brought into you, with their kings being led in procession.
你的門要時常敞開，白天黑夜都不要關閉，好讓萬民的財富，在他們的君王領導下，運到你這裏來。
12 For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly destroyed.
因為凡不肯事奉你的民族和國家，必要滅亡，這樣的民族必要完全滅絕。
13 The glory of Lebanon will come to you— its cypress, elm, and boxwood together— to adorn the place of My sanctuary, and I will glorify the place of My feet.
黎巴嫩的光榮要歸於你；柏樹、榆樹和松樹都要聚在一起，裝飾我的聖所，因為我要光榮我立足之地。
14 The sons of your oppressors will come and bow down to you; all who reviled you will fall facedown at your feet and call you the City of the LORD, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
曾經欺壓過你者的子孫，要來向你屈服；凡輕視過你的人，都要在你腳前下拜；他們要稱呼你為「上主的城，」「以色列聖者的熙雍。」
15 Whereas you have been forsaken and despised, with no one passing through, I will make you an everlasting pride, a joy from age to age.
我要使你成為萬世的尊榮，萬代的喜悅，以代你從前所受的遺棄、惱恨，與無人經過的痛苦。
16 You will drink the milk of nations and nurse at the breasts of royalty; you will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
你要吸萬國的奶，吮眾王的乳房，這樣你將知道我，上主，是你的拯救者，你的救主，雅各伯的強有力者。
17 Instead of bronze I will bring you gold; I will bring silver in place of iron, bronze instead of wood, and iron instead of stones. I will appoint peace as your governor and righteousness as your ruler.
我要以金子來代替黃銅，以銀子代替鐵，以黃銅代替木頭，以鐵代替石頭；我要立「和平」為你的官長，立「正義」為你的政要。
18 No longer will violence be heard in your land, nor ruin or destruction within your borders. But you will name your walls Salvation and your gates Praise.
在你的地域裏再聽不到強暴的事情；你要稱你的城垣為「救恩，」你的城門為「讚揚。」
19 No longer will the sun be your light by day, nor the brightness of the moon shine on your night; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your splendor.
太陽不再是你白天的光明，月亮也不再照耀你，上主要作你永久的光明，你的天主要作你的光輝。
20 Your sun will no longer set, and your moon will not wane; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your sorrow will cease.
你的太陽再不降落，你的月亮再不虧缺，因為上主要作你永久的光明，你悲哀的日子已經終結。
21 Then all your people will be righteous; they will possess the land forever; they are the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, so that I may be glorified.
你的人民都要成為義人，要永遠繼承地業，因為他們是我所栽植的嫩芽，是我手中的工程，使我得到榮耀。
22 The least of you will become a thousand, and the smallest a mighty nation. I am the LORD; in its time I will accomplish it quickly.
渺小的要成為千人村，微弱的要成為強大的民族：我是上主，我要在定期中迅速完成此事。
