Isaiah 29
1 Ah altar, altar of the citie that Dauid dwelt in: adde yere vnto yere: let them kill lambs.
唉！亚利伊勒，亚利伊勒， 大卫安营的城， 任凭你年上加年， 节期照常周流。
2 But I wil bring the altar into distresse, and there shalbe heauines and sorowe, and it shall be vnto me like an altar.
我终必使亚利伊勒困难； 她必悲伤哀号， 我却仍以她为亚利伊勒。
3 And I wil besiege thee as a circle, and fight against thee on a mount, and will cast vp ramparts against thee.
我必四围安营攻击你， 屯兵围困你， 筑垒攻击你。
4 So shalt thou be humbled, and shalt speake out of the ground, and thy speach shalbe as out of the dust: thy voyce also shall be out of the ground like him that hath a spirite of diuination, and thy talking shall whisper out of the dust.
你必败落，从地中说话； 你的言语必微细出于尘埃。 你的声音必像那交鬼者的声音出于地； 你的言语低低微微出于尘埃。
5 Moreouer, the multitude of thy strangers shalbe like small dust, and the multitude of strong men shalbe as chaffe that passeth away, and it shall be in a moment, euen suddenly.
你仇敌的群众，却要像细尘； 强暴人的群众，也要像飞糠。 这事必顷刻之间忽然临到。
6 Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hostes with thunder, and shaking, and a great noyse, a whirlewinde, and a tempest, and a flame of a deuouring fire.
万军之耶和华必用雷轰、地震、大声、旋风、暴风， 并吞灭的火焰，向她讨罪。
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against the altar, shalbe as a dreame or vision by night: euen all they that make the warre against it, and strong holdes against it, and lay siege vnto it.
那时，攻击亚利伊勒列国的群众， 就是一切攻击亚利伊勒和她的保障， 并使她困难的， 必如梦景，如夜间的异象；
8 And it shalbe like as an hungry man dreameth, and beholde, he eateth: and when he awaketh, his soule is emptie: or like as a thirsty man dreameth, and loe, he is drinking, and when he awaketh, beholde, he is faint, and his soule longeth: so shall the multitude of all nations be that fight against mount Zion.
又必像饥饿的人梦中吃饭， 醒了仍觉腹空； 或像口渴的人梦中喝水， 醒了仍觉发昏，心里想喝。 攻击锡安山列国的群众也必如此。
9 Stay your selues, and wonder: they are blinde, and make you blinde: they are drunken but not with wine: they stagger, but not by strong drinke.
你们等候惊奇吧！ 你们宴乐昏迷吧！ 他们醉了，却非因酒； 他们东倒西歪，却非因浓酒。
10 For the Lord hath couered you with a spirite of slumber, and hath shut vp your eyes: the Prophets, and your chiefe Seers hath he couered.
因为耶和华将沉睡的灵浇灌你们， 封闭你们的眼， 蒙盖你们的头。 你们的眼就是先知； 你们的头就是先见。
11 And the vision of them all is become vnto you, as the wordes of a booke that is sealed vp, which they deliuer to one that can reade, saying, Reade this, I pray thee. Then shall he say, I can not: for it is sealed.
所有的默示，你们看如封住的书卷，人将这书卷交给识字的，说：“请念吧！”他说：“我不能念，因为是封住了。”
12 And the booke is giuen vnto him that can not reade, saying, Reade this, I pray thee. And he shall say, I can not reade.
又将这书卷交给不识字的人，说：“请念吧！”他说：“我不识字。”
13 Therefore the Lord sayd, Because this people come neere vnto me with their mouth, and honour me with their lips, but haue remooued their heart farre from me, and their feare toward me was taught by the precept of men,
主说：因为这百姓亲近我， 用嘴唇尊敬我， 心却远离我； 他们敬畏我， 不过是领受人的吩咐。
14 Therefore behold, I wil againe doe a marueilous worke in this people, euen a marueilous worke, and a wonder: for the wisdome of their wise men shall perish, and the vnderstanding of their prudent men shalbe hid.
所以，我在这百姓中要行奇妙的事， 就是奇妙又奇妙的事。 他们智慧人的智慧必然消灭， 聪明人的聪明必然隐藏。
15 Wo vnto them that seeke deepe to hide their counsell from the Lord: for their workes are in darkenes, and they say, Who seeth vs? and who knoweth vs?
祸哉！那些向耶和华深藏谋略的， 又在暗中行事，说： 谁看见我们呢？ 谁知道我们呢？
16 Your turning of deuises shall it not be esteemed as the potters clay? for shall the worke say of him that made it, Hee made me not? or the thing formed, say of him that facioned it, He had none vnderstanding?
你们把事颠倒了， 岂可看窑匠如泥吗？ 被制作的物岂可论制作物的说： 他没有制作我？ 或是被创造的物论造物的说： 他没有聪明？
17 Is it not yet but a litle while, and Lebanon shall be turned into Carmel? and Carmel shall be counted as a forest?
黎巴嫩变为肥田， 肥田看如树林， 不是只有一点点时候吗？
18 And in that day shall the deafe heare the wordes of the booke, and the eyes of the blinde shall see out of obscuritie, and out of darkenesse.
那时，聋子必听见这书上的话； 瞎子的眼必从迷蒙黑暗中得以看见。
19 The meeke in the Lord shall receiue ioye againe, and the poore men shall reioyce in the holy one of Israel.
谦卑人必因耶和华增添欢喜； 人间贫穷的必因以色列的圣者快乐。
20 For the cruel man shall cease, and the scornefull shalbe consumed: and all that hasted to iniquitie, shalbe cut off:
因为，强暴人已归无有， 亵慢人已经灭绝， 一切找机会作孽的都被剪除。
21 Which made a man to sinne in ye worde, and tooke him in a snare: which reproued them in the gate, and made the iust to fall without cause.
他们在争讼的事上定无罪的为有罪， 为城门口责备人的设下网罗， 用虚无的事屈枉义人。
22 Therefore thus sayth the Lord vnto the house of Iaakob, euen hee that redeemed Abraham, Iaakob shall not now be confounded, neither now shall his face be pale.
所以，救赎亚伯拉罕的耶和华 论雅各家如此说： 雅各必不再羞愧， 面容也不致变色。
23 But when he seeth his children, the worke of mine hands, in the mids of him, they shall sanctifie my Name, and sanctifie the holy one of Iaakob, and shall feare the God of Israel.
但他看见他的众子， 就是我手的工作在他那里， 他们必尊我的名为圣， 必尊雅各的圣者为圣， 必敬畏以色列的 神。
24 Then they that erred in spirit, shall haue vnderstanding, and they that murmured, shall learne doctrine.
心中迷糊的必得明白； 发怨言的必受训诲。
