Isaiah 65
1 They have sought me that before asked not for me, they have found me that sought me not. I said: Behold me, behold me, to a nation that did not call upon my name.
素來沒有訪問我的，現在求問我； 沒有尋找我的，我叫他們遇見； 沒有稱為我名下的，我對他們說： 我在這裏！我在這裏！
2 I have spread forth my hands all the day to an unbelieving people, who walk in a way that is not good after their own thoughts.
我整天伸手招呼那悖逆的百姓； 他們隨自己的意念行不善之道。
3 A people that continually provoke me to anger before my face: that immolate in gardens, and sacrifice upon bricks.
這百姓時常當面惹我發怒； 在園中獻祭， 在壇上燒香；
4 That dwell in sepulchres, and sleep in the temple of idols: that eat swine’s flesh, and profane broth is in their vessels.
在墳墓間坐着， 在隱密處住宿， 吃豬肉； 他們器皿中有可憎之物做的湯；
5 That say: Depart from me, come not near me, because thou art unclean: these shall be smoke in my anger, a fire burning all the day.
且對人說：你站開吧！ 不要挨近我，因為我比你聖潔。 主說：這些人是我鼻中的煙， 是整天燒着的火。
6 Behold it is written before me: I will not be silent, but I will render and repay into their bosom.
看哪，這都寫在我面前。 我必不靜默，必施行報應， 必將你們的罪孽和你們列祖的罪孽， 就是在山上燒香， 在岡上褻瀆我的罪孽， 一同報應在他們後人懷中， 我先要把他們所行的量給他們； 這是耶和華說的。
7 Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, who have sacrificed upon the mountains, and have reproached me upon the hills; and I will measure back their first work in their bosom.
8 Thus saith the Lord: As if a grain be found in a cluster, and it be said: Destroy it not, because it is a blessing: so will I do for the sake of my servants, that I may not destroy the whole.
耶和華如此說：葡萄中尋得新酒， 人就說：不要毀壞， 因為福在其中。 我因我僕人的緣故也必照樣而行， 不將他們全然毀滅。
9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Juda a possessor of my mountains: and my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
我必從雅各中領出後裔， 從猶大中領出承受我眾山的。 我的選民必承受； 我的僕人要在那裏居住。
10 And the plains shall be turned to folds of hocks, and the valley of Achor into a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
沙崙平原必成為羊群的圈； 亞割谷必成為牛群躺臥之處， 都為尋求我的民所得。
11 And you, that have forsaken the Lord, that have forgotten my holy mount, that set a table for fortune, and offer libations upon it,
但你們這些離棄耶和華、 忘記我的聖山、給時運擺筵席、 給天命盛滿調和酒的，
12 I will number you in the sword, and you shall all fall by slaughter: because I called and you did not answer: I spoke, and you did not hear: and you did evil in my eyes, and you have chosen the things that displease me.
我要命定你們歸在刀下， 都必屈身被殺； 因為我呼喚，你們沒有答應； 我說話，你們沒有聽從； 反倒行我眼中看為惡的， 揀選我所不喜悅的。
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold my servants shall eat, and you shall be hungry: behold my servants shall drink, and you shall be thirsty.
所以，主耶和華如此說： 我的僕人必得吃，你們卻飢餓； 我的僕人必得喝，你們卻乾渴； 我的僕人必歡喜，你們卻蒙羞。
14 Behold my servants shall rejoice, and you shall be confounded: behold my servants shall praise for joyfulness of heart, and you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for grief of spirit.
我的僕人因心中高興歡呼， 你們卻因心中憂愁哀哭， 又因心裏憂傷哀號。
15 And you shall leave your name for an execration to my elect: and the Lord God shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name.
你們必留下自己的名， 為我選民指着賭咒。 主耶和華必殺你們， 另起別名稱呼他的僕人。
16 In which he that is blessed upon the earth, shall be blessed in God, amen: and he that sweareth in the earth, shall swear by God, amen: because the former distresses are forgotten, and because they are hid from my eyes.
這樣，在地上為自己求福的， 必憑真實的上帝求福； 在地上起誓的， 必指真實的上帝起誓。 因為，從前的患難已經忘記， 也從我眼前隱藏了。
17 For behold I create new heavens, and a new earth: and the former things shall not be in remembrance, and they shell not come upon the heart.
看哪！我造新天新地； 從前的事不再被記念，也不再追想。
18 But you shall be glad and rejoice for ever in these things, which I create: for behold I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and the people thereof joy.
你們當因我所造的永遠歡喜快樂； 因我造耶路撒冷為人所喜， 造其中的居民為人所樂。
19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people, and the voice of weeping shall no more be heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
我必因耶路撒冷歡喜， 因我的百姓快樂； 其中必不再聽見哭泣的聲音和哀號的聲音。
20 There shall no more be an infant of days there, nor an old man that shall not fill up his days: for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.
其中必沒有數日夭亡的嬰孩， 也沒有壽數不滿的老者； 因為百歲死的仍算孩童， 有百歲死的罪人算被咒詛。
21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruits of them.
他們要建造房屋，自己居住； 栽種葡萄園，吃其中的果子。
22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of my people, and the works of their hands shall be of long continuance.
他們建造的，別人不得住； 他們栽種的，別人不得吃； 因為我民的日子必像樹木的日子； 我選民親手勞碌得來的必長久享用。
23 My elect shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth in trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord, and their posterity with them.
他們必不徒然勞碌， 所生產的，也不遭災害， 因為都是蒙耶和華賜福的後裔； 他們的子孫也是如此。
24 And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will hear; as they are yet speaking, I will hear.
他們尚未求告，我就應允； 正說話的時候，我就垂聽。
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together; the lion and the ox shall eat straw; and dust shall be the serpent’s food: they shall not hurt nor kill in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.
豺狼必與羊羔同食； 獅子必吃草與牛一樣； 塵土必作蛇的食物。 在我聖山的遍處， 這一切都不傷人，不害物。 這是耶和華說的。
