Esias 33
1 Woe to them that afflict you; but no one makes you miserable: and he that deals perfidiously with you does not deal perfidiously: they that deal perfidiously shall be taken and given up, and as a moth on a garment, so shall they be spoiled.
禍哉，你這不受侵害而侵害人，不受劫掠而劫掠人的人！當你侵害完了，你將遭受別人的侵害；當你劫掠完了，你將遭受別人的劫掠。
2 Lord, have mercy upon us; for we have trusted in thee: the seed of the rebellious is gone to destruction, but our deliverance was in a time of affliction.
上主啊！憐恤我們罷！我們仰望你，每日清晨，請作我們的臂膊！在窘迫時，請作我們的救援！
3 By reason of the terrible sound the nations were dismayed for fear of thee, and the heathen were scattered.
叫囂的聲音一響，民眾遂即逃遁；你一奮起，萬民便都潰散。
4 And now shall the spoils of your small and great be gathered: as if one should gather locusts, so shall they mock you.
人們收集掠物，有如拾取蚱蜢；急於劫掠，有如蝗蟲疾跳。
5 The God who dwells on high is holy: Sion is filled with judgment and righteousness.
上主是崇高的，因為他居於高處；他以正義和公平充盈了熙雍。
6 They shall be delivered up to the law: our salvation is our treasure: there are wisdom and knowledge and piety toward the Lord; these are the treasures of righteousness.
他是你命運的保障，得救的府庫、智慧和明智；敬畏上主， 將是你的寶藏。
7 Behold now, these shall be terrified with fear of you: those whom ye feared shall cry out because of you: messengers shall be sent, bitterly weeping, entreating for peace.
看哪！傳信的的人在外號叫，和平使者悲痛啼哭。
8 For the ways of these shall be made desolate: the terror of the nations has been made to cease, and the covenant with these is taken away, and ye shall by no means deem them men.
大路已經荒廢，行旅已經絕跡。他撕毀了盟約，藐視了證人，不顧及任何人。
9 The land mourns; Libanus is ashamed: Saron is become marshes; Galilee shall be laid bare, and Chermel.
地域悽慘頹廢，黎巴嫩慚赧憔悴，沙龍變成荒野，巴商和加爾默耳搖曳凋零。
10 Now will I arise, saith the Lord, now will I be glorified; now will I be exalted.
上主說：「現在我要起來，現在我要奮發，現在我要受尊崇！
11 Now shall ye see, now shall ye perceive; the strength of your breath, shall be vain; fire shall devour you.
你們所懷的是枯草，所生的是碎湝；我的氣息有如火燄，必將你們焚盡！
12 And the nations shall be burnt up; as a thorn in the field cast out and burnt up.
萬民將被焚燒，有如石灰，又如斬斷的荊棘燬於火中。
13 They that are afar off shall hear what I have done; they that draw nigh shall know my strength.
遠方的人要聽到我的作為，近處的人要嘗試我的能力！」
14 The sinners in Sion have departed; trembling shall seize the ungodly. Who will tell you that a fire is kindled? Who will tell you of the eternal place?
熙雍的罪人戰兢害怕，不法之徒為恐懼所攫：「我們中誰能與吞噬的烈火同居﹖我們中誰能與不滅的烈燄共處﹖」
15 He that walks in righteousness, speaking rightly, hating transgression and iniquity, and shaking his hands from gifts, stopping his ears that he should not hear the judgment of blood, shutting his eyes that he should not see injustice.
那行走正道，出言真誠的，鄙棄欺詐入息的，搖手不受賄賂的，充耳不聞流血陰謀的，閉眼不看邪惡的：
16 he shall dwell in a high cave of a strong rock: bread shall be given him, and his water shall be sure.
這樣的人要居高處，巖石上的保壘將作他的保障，他的食物有人供應，他的水可得保全。
17 Ye shall see a king with glory: your eyes shall behold a land from afar.
你必要舉目瞻仰具有華美的君王，要遙望幅員廣闊的地帶。
18 Your soul shall meditate terror. Where are the scribes? where are the counsellors, where is he that numbers them that are growing up,
你的心追憶起已往的恐怖時，要說：「登記的人員在那裏呢﹖量銀的人員在那裏呢﹖數點城堡的人又在那裏呢﹖」
19 [even] the small and great people? with whom he took not counsel, neither did he understand [a people] of deep speech, so that a despised people should not hear, and there is no understanding to him that hears.
你再見不到那野蠻的民族，即言語深邃而難以領悟，說話口吃而不易理喻的民族。
20 Behold the city of Sion, our refuge: thine eyes shall behold Jerusalem, a rich city, tabernacles which shall not be shaken, neither shall the pins of her tabernacle be moved for ever, neither shall her cords be at all broken:
你將觀看熙雍，我們集會的城邑；你的眼將見到耶路撒冷，安全的寓所，不動搖的帳幕；她的木樁永不能拔出，她所有的繩索也不能拉斷。
21 for the name of the Lord is great to you: ye shall have a place, [even] rivers and wide and spacious channels: thou shalt not go this way, neither a vessel with oars go [thereby].
榮耀的上主在那裏將作我們的巨川大河，沒有舟楫往來其間，也沒有遊艇划過。
22 For my God is great: the Lord our judge shall not pass me by: the Lord is our prince, the Lord is our king; the Lord, he shall save us.
它的繩索鬆弛了，沒有穩固桅杆的力量，也沒有扯起船帆的力量。
23 Thy cords are broken, for they had no strength: thy meat has given way, it shall not spread the sails, it shall not bear a signal, until it be given up for plunder; therefore shall many lame men take spoil.
因為上主是我們的判官，上主是我們的立法者，上主是我們的君王，他必拯救我們。
24 And the people dwelling among them shall by no means say, I am in pain: for their sin shall be forgiven them.
那時，瞎子要分得許多戰利品，瘸子要取得擄獲物。 沒有一個居民再會說：「我病了。」住在那裏的人必將獲得罪赦。
