< Isaiah 10 >

1 Woe vnto them that decree wicked decrees, and write grieuous things,
祸哉!那些设立不义之律例的 和记录奸诈之判语的,
2 To keepe backe ye poore from iudgement, and to take away the iudgement of the poore of my people, that widowes may be their pray, and that they may spoyle the fatherlesse.
为要屈枉穷乏人, 夺去我民中困苦人的理, 以寡妇当作掳物, 以孤儿当作掠物。
3 What will ye doe nowe in the day of visitation, and of destruction, which shall come from farre? to whom will ye flee for helpe? and where will ye leaue your glorie?
到降罚的日子,有灾祸从远方临到, 那时,你们怎样行呢? 你们向谁逃奔求救呢? 你们的荣耀存留何处呢?
4 Without me euery one shall fall among them that are bound, and they shall fall downe among the slayne: yet for all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
他们只得屈身在被掳的人以下, 仆倒在被杀的人以下。 虽然如此,耶和华的怒气还未转消; 他的手仍伸不缩。
5 O Asshur, the rodde of my wrath: and the staffe in their hands is mine indignation.
亚述是我怒气的棍, 手中拿我恼恨的杖。
6 I will sende him to a dissembling nation, and I will giue him a charge against the people of my wrath to take the spoyle and to take the pray, and to treade them vnder feete like the mire in the streete.
我要打发他攻击亵渎的国民, 吩咐他攻击我所恼怒的百姓, 抢财为掳物,夺货为掠物, 将他们践踏,像街上的泥土一样。
7 But he thinketh not so, neither doeth his heart esteeme it so: but he imagineth to destroy and to cut off not a fewe nations.
然而,他不是这样的意思; 他心也不这样打算。 他心里倒想毁灭, 剪除不少的国。
8 For he sayeth, Are not my princes altogether Kings?
他说:我的臣仆岂不都是王吗?
9 Is not Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria as Damascus?
迦勒挪岂不像迦基米施吗? 哈马岂不像亚珥拔吗? 撒马利亚岂不像大马士革吗?
10 Like as mine hand hath founde the kingdomes of the idoles, seeing their idoles were aboue Ierusalem, and aboue Samaria:
我手已经搆到有偶像的国; 这些国雕刻的偶像 过于耶路撒冷和撒马利亚的偶像。
11 Shall not I, as I haue done to Samaria, and to the idoles thereof, so doe to Ierusalem and to the idoles thereof?
我怎样待撒马利亚和其中的偶像, 岂不照样待耶路撒冷和其中的偶像吗?
12 But when the Lord hath accomplished all his worke vpon mount Zion and Ierusalem, I will visite the fruite of the proude heart of the King of Asshur, and his glorious and proud lookes,
主在锡安山和耶路撒冷成就他一切工作的时候,主说:“我必罚亚述王自大的心和他高傲眼目的荣耀。”
13 Because he said, By ye power of mine owne hand haue I done it, and by my wisdome, because I am wise: therefore I haue remooued the borders of the people, and haue spoyled their treasures, and haue pulled downe the inhabitants like a valiant man.
因为他说: 我所成就的事是靠我手的能力 和我的智慧, 我本有聪明。 我挪移列国的地界, 抢夺他们所积蓄的财宝; 并且我像勇士,使坐宝座的降为卑。
14 And mine hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people, and as one gathereth egges that are left, so haue I gathered all the earth: and there was none to mooue the wing or to open the mouth, or to whisper.
我的手搆到列国的财宝, 好像人搆到鸟窝; 我也得了全地, 好像人拾起所弃的雀蛋。 没有动翅膀的; 没有张嘴的,也没有鸣叫的。
15 Shall the axe boast it selfe against him that heweth therewith? or shall the sawe exalt it selfe against him that moueth it? as if the rod shoulde lift vp it selfe against him that taketh it vp, or the staffe should exalt it selfe, as it were no wood.
斧岂可向用斧砍木的自夸呢? 锯岂可向用锯的自大呢? 好比棍抡起那举棍的, 好比杖举起那非木的人。
16 Therefore shall the Lord God of hostes send amog his fat men, leannes, and vnder his glorie he shall kindle a burning, like the burning of fire.
因此,主—万军之耶和华 必使亚述王的肥壮人变为瘦弱, 在他的荣华之下必有火着起, 如同焚烧一样。
17 And the light of Israel shalbe as a fire, and the Holy one thereof as a flame, and it shall burne, and deuoure his thornes and his briers in one day:
以色列的光必如火; 他的圣者必如火焰。 在一日之间,将亚述王的荆棘 和蒺藜焚烧净尽;
18 And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitfull fieldes both soule and flesh: and he shalbe as ye fainting of a standard bearer.
又将他树林和肥田的荣耀全然烧尽, 好像拿军旗的昏过去一样。
19 And the rest of the trees of his forest shalbe fewe, that a childe may tell them.
他林中剩下的树必稀少, 就是孩子也能写其数。
20 And at that day shall the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Iaakob, stay no more vpon him that smote them, but shall stay vpon ye Lord, ye Holy one of Israel in trueth.
到那日,以色列所剩下的和雅各家所逃脱的,不再倚靠那击打他们的,却要诚实倚靠耶和华—以色列的圣者。
21 The remnant shall returne, euen the remnant of Iaakob vnto the mightie God.
所剩下的,就是雅各家所剩下的,必归回全能的 神。
22 For though thy people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea, yet shall the remnant of them returne. The consumption decreed shall ouerflow with righteousnesse.
以色列啊,你的百姓虽多如海沙,惟有剩下的归回。原来灭绝的事已定,必有公义施行,如水涨溢。
23 For the Lord God of hostes shall make the consumption, euen determined, in the middes of all the land.
因为主—万军之耶和华在全地之中必成就所定规的结局。
24 Therefore thus saith ye Lord God of hostes, O my people, that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of Asshur: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift vp his staffe against thee after the maner of Egypt:
所以,主—万军之耶和华如此说:“住锡安我的百姓啊,亚述王虽然用棍击打你,又照埃及的样子举杖攻击你,你却不要怕他。
25 But yet a very litle time, and the wrath shall be consumed, and mine anger in their destruction.
因为还有一点点时候,向你们发的忿恨就要完毕,我的怒气要向他发作,使他灭亡。
26 And ye Lord of hostes shall raise vp a scourge for him, according to the plague of Midian in the rocke Oreb: and as his staffe was vpon the Sea, so he will lift it vp after the maner of Egypt.
万军之耶和华要兴起鞭来攻击他,好像在俄立磐石那里杀戮米甸人一样。耶和华的杖要向海伸出,把杖举起,像在埃及一样。
27 And at that day shall his burden be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy necke: and the yoke shalbe destroied because of the anoynting.
到那日,亚述王的重担必离开你的肩头;他的轭必离开你的颈项;那轭也必因肥壮的缘故撑断。”
28 He is come to Aiath: he is passed into Migron: at Michmash shall he lay vp his armour.
亚述王来到亚叶, 经过米矶 , 在密抹安放辎重。
29 They haue gone ouer the foorde: they lodged in the lodging at Geba: Ramah is afraide: Gibeah of Saul is fled away.
他们过了隘口, 在迦巴住宿。 拉玛人战兢; 扫罗的基比亚人逃跑。
30 Lift vp thy voyce, O daughter Gallim, cause Laish to heare, O poore Anathoth.
迦琳的居民哪,要高声呼喊! 莱煞人哪,须听! 哀哉!困苦的亚拿突啊。
31 Madmenah is remoued: the inhabitants of Gebim haue gathered themselues together.
玛得米那人躲避; 基柄的居民逃遁。
32 Yet there is a time that he will stay at Nob: he shall lift vp his hand towarde the mount of the daughter Zion, the hill of Ierusalem.
当那日,亚述王要在挪伯歇兵, 向锡安女子的山— 就是耶路撒冷的山—抡手攻他。
33 Beholde, the Lord God of hostes shall cut off the bough with feare, and they of high stature shalbe cut off, and the hie shalbe humbled.
看哪,主—万军之耶和华 以惊吓削去树枝; 长高的必被砍下, 高大的必被伐倒。
34 And he shall cut away the thicke places of the forest with yron, and Lebanon shall haue a mightie fall.
稠密的树林,他要用铁器砍下; 黎巴嫩的树木必被大能者伐倒。
