Isaiah 6
1 In the yeere of the death of King Vzziah, I saw also the Lord sitting vpon an high throne, and lifted vp, and the lower partes thereof filled the Temple.
烏齊雅王逝世那年，我看見吾主坐在崇高的御座上，他的衣邊拖曳滿殿。「
2 The Seraphims stoode vpon it: euery one had sixe wings: with twaine he couered his face, and with twaine hee couered his feete, and with twaine he did flie.
色辣芬」侍立在他左右，各有六個翅膀：兩個蓋住臉，兩個蓋住腳，兩個用來飛翔。
3 And one cryed to another, and sayde, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hostes: the whole world is full of his glory.
他們互相高呼說：「聖！聖！聖！萬軍的上主！他的光榮充滿大地！」
4 And the lintles of the doore cheekes moued at the voyce of him that cryed, and the house was filled with smoke.
由於呼喊的聲音，門限的基石也震撼了；殿宇內充滿了煙霧。
5 Then I sayd, Wo is me: for I am vndone, because I am a man of polluted lips, and I dwell in the middes of a people of polluted lips: for mine eyes haue seene the King and Lord of hostes.
我遂說：「我有禍了！我完了！因為我是個唇舌不潔的人，住在唇舌不潔的人民中間，竟親眼見了君王－－萬軍的上主！」
6 Then flewe one of the Seraphims vnto me with an hote cole in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with the tongs:
當時有一個「色辣芬」飛到我面前，手中拿著鉗子，從祭壇上取了一塊火炭，
7 And he touched my mouth, and sayd, Loe, this hath touched thy lips, and thine iniquitie shall be taken away, and thy sinne shalbe purged.
接觸我的口說：「你看，這炭接觸了你的口唇，你的邪惡已經消除，你的罪孽已獲赦免！」
8 Also I heard the voyce of the Lord, saying, Whome shall I send? and who shall goe for vs? Then I sayd, Here am I, send me.
那時我聽見吾主的聲音說：「我將派遣誰呢﹖誰肯為我們去呢﹖」我回答說：「我在這裏，請派遣我 ！」
9 And he sayd, Goe, and say vnto this people, Ye shall heare in deede, but ye shall not vnderstand: ye shall plainely see, and not perceiue.
他說：「你去對這民族說：你們聽是聽，但不明白；看是看，卻不理解。
10 Make the heart of this people fatte, make their eares heauie, and shut their eyes, lest they see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and vnderstand with their hearts, and conuert, and he heale them.
你要使這民族的心遲鈍，使他們的耳朵沉重，使他們的眼睛迷矇，免得他們的眼睛看見，耳朵聽見，心裏覺悟而悔改，獲得痊癒。」
11 Then sayd I, Lord, howe long? And he answered, Vntill the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be vtterly desolate,
我追問說：「吾主！要到幾時呢﹖」他回答說：「直到城邑變成廢墟，沒有居民，房屋無人居住，田地變為荒蕪。」
12 And the Lord haue remoued men farre away, and there be a great desolation in the mids of the land.
上主必將人民遷到遠方，本地區荒蕪異常。
13 But yet in it shalbe a tenth, and shall returne, and shalbe eaten vp as an elme or an oke, which haue a substance in them, when they cast their leaues: so the holy seede shall be the substance thereof.
境內雖只留下十分之一，還要遭受摧殘；就如松樹和樟樹在伐倒後，尚留有餘幹，聖善的苗裔將由這餘幹產生。
