Isaiah 57
1 The just perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart, and men of mercy are taken away, because there is none that understandeth; for the just man is taken away from before the face of evil.
义人死亡， 无人放在心上； 虔诚人被收去， 无人思念。 这义人被收去是免了将来的祸患；
2 Let peace come, let him rest in his bed that hath walked in his uprightness.
他们得享平安。 素行正直的，各人在坟里安歇。
3 But draw near hither, you sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer, and of the harlot.
你们这些巫婆的儿子， 奸夫和妓女的种子， 都要前来！
4 Upon whom have you jested? upon whom have you opened your mouth wide, and put out your tongue? are not you wicked children, a false seed,
你们向谁戏笑？ 向谁张口吐舌呢？ 你们岂不是悖逆的儿女， 虚谎的种类呢？
5 Who seek your comfort in idols under every green tree, sacrificing children in the torrents, under the high rocks?
你们在橡树中间，在各青翠树下欲火攻心； 在山谷间，在石穴下杀了儿女；
6 In the parts of the torrent is thy portion, this is thy lot: and thou hast poured out libations to them, thou hast offered sacrifice. Shall I not be angry at these things?
在谷中光滑石头里有你的分。 这些就是你所得的分； 你也向他浇了奠祭，献了供物， 因这事我岂能容忍吗？
7 Upon a high and lofty mountain thou hast laid thy bed, and hast gone up thither to offer victims.
你在高而又高的山上安设床榻， 也上那里去献祭。
8 And behind the door, and behind the post thou best set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered thyself near me, and hast received an adulterer: thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made a covenant with them: thou hast loved their bed with open hand.
你在门后，在门框后， 立起你的纪念； 向外人赤露，又上去扩张床榻， 与他们立约； 你在那里看见他们的床就甚喜爱。
9 And thou hast adorned thyself for the king with ointment, and hast multiplied thy perfumes. Thou hast sent thy messengers far off, and wast debased even to hell. (Sheol h7585)
你把油带到王那里， 又多加香料， 打发使者往远方去， 自卑自贱直到阴间， (Sheol h7585)
10 Thou hast been wearied in the multitude of thy ways: yet thou saidst not: I will rest: thou hast found life of thy hand, therefore thou hast not asked.
你因路远疲倦， 却不说这是枉然； 你以为有复兴之力， 所以不觉疲惫。
11 For whom hast thou been solicitous and afraid, that thou hast lied, and hast not been mindful of me, nor thought on me in thy heart? for I am silent, and as one that seeth not, and thou hast forgotten me.
你怕谁？因谁恐惧？ 竟说谎，不记念我， 又不将这事放在心上。 我不是许久闭口不言， 你仍不怕我吗？
12 I will declare thy justice, and thy works shall not profit thee.
我要指明你的公义； 至于你所行的都必与你无益。
13 When thou shalt cry, let thy companies deliver thee, but the wind shall carry them all off, a breeze shall take them away, but he that putteth his trust in me, shall inherit the land, and shall possess my holy mount.
你哀求的时候， 让你所聚集的拯救你吧！ 风要把他们刮散， 一口气要把他们都吹去。 但那投靠我的必得地土， 必承受我的圣山为业。
14 And I will say: Make a way: give free passage, turn out of the path, take away the stumblingblocks out of the way of my people.
耶和华要说： 你们修筑修筑，预备道路， 将绊脚石从我百姓的路中除掉。
15 For thus saith the High and the Eminent that inhabiteth eternity: and his name is Holy, who dwelleth in the high and holy place, and with a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
因为那至高至上、永远长存 名为圣者的如此说： 我住在至高至圣的所在， 也与心灵痛悔谦卑的人同居； 要使谦卑人的灵苏醒， 也使痛悔人的心苏醒。
16 For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be angry unto the end: because the spirit shall go forth from my face, and breathings I will make.
我必不永远相争，也不长久发怒， 恐怕我所造的人与灵性都必发昏。
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness I was angry, and I struck him: I hid my face from thee, and was angry: and he went away wandering in his own heart.
因他贪婪的罪孽，我就发怒击打他； 我向他掩面发怒， 他却仍然随心背道。
18 I saw his ways, and I healed him, and brought him back, and restored comforts to him, and to them that mourn for him.
我看见他所行的道，也要医治他； 又要引导他， 使他和那一同伤心的人再得安慰。
19 I created the fruit of the lips, peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, said the Lord, and I healed him.
我造就嘴唇的果子； 愿平安康泰归与远处的人， 也归与近处的人； 并且我要医治他。 这是耶和华说的。
20 But the wicked are like the raging sea, which cannot rest, and the waves thereof cast up dirt and mire.
惟独恶人，好像翻腾的海， 不得平静； 其中的水常涌出污秽和淤泥来。
21 There is no peace to the wicked, saith the Lord God.
我的 神说：恶人必不得平安！
