Isaiah 33
1 Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou wast not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! When thou hast ceased to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; and when thou art weary with dealing treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
禍哉，你這不受侵害而侵害人，不受劫掠而劫掠人的人！當你侵害完了，你將遭受別人的侵害；當你劫掠完了，你將遭受別人的劫掠。
2 O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for Thee; be Thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
上主啊！憐恤我們罷！我們仰望你，每日清晨，請作我們的臂膊！在窘迫時，請作我們的救援！
3 At the noise of the tumult the peoples are fled; at the lifting up of Thyself the nations are scattered.
叫囂的聲音一響，民眾遂即逃遁；你一奮起，萬民便都潰散。
4 And your spoil is gathered as the caterpillar gathereth; as locusts leap do they leap upon it.
人們收集掠物，有如拾取蚱蜢；急於劫掠，有如蝗蟲疾跳。
5 The LORD is exalted, for He dwelleth on high; He hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
上主是崇高的，因為他居於高處；他以正義和公平充盈了熙雍。
6 And the stability of thy times shall be a hoard of salvation — wisdom and knowledge, and the fear of the LORD which is His treasure.
他是你命運的保障，得救的府庫、智慧和明智；敬畏上主， 將是你的寶藏。
7 Behold, their valiant ones cry without; the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
看哪！傳信的的人在外號叫，和平使者悲痛啼哭。
8 The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth; he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth not man.
大路已經荒廢，行旅已經絕跡。他撕毀了盟約，藐視了證人，不顧及任何人。
9 The land mourneth and languisheth; Lebanon is ashamed, it withereth; Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel are clean bare.
地域悽慘頹廢，黎巴嫩慚赧憔悴，沙龍變成荒野，巴商和加爾默耳搖曳凋零。
10 Now will I arise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift Myself up.
上主說：「現在我要起來，現在我要奮發，現在我要受尊崇！
11 Ye conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble; your breath is a fire that shall devour you.
你們所懷的是枯草，所生的是碎湝；我的氣息有如火燄，必將你們焚盡！
12 And the peoples shall be as the burnings of lime; as thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire.
萬民將被焚燒，有如石灰，又如斬斷的荊棘燬於火中。
13 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might.
遠方的人要聽到我的作為，近處的人要嘗試我的能力！」
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'
熙雍的罪人戰兢害怕，不法之徒為恐懼所攫：「我們中誰能與吞噬的烈火同居﹖我們中誰能與不滅的烈燄共處﹖」
15 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;
那行走正道，出言真誠的，鄙棄欺詐入息的，搖手不受賄賂的，充耳不聞流血陰謀的，閉眼不看邪惡的：
16 He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure.
這樣的人要居高處，巖石上的保壘將作他的保障，他的食物有人供應，他的水可得保全。
17 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.
你必要舉目瞻仰具有華美的君王，要遙望幅員廣闊的地帶。
18 Thy heart shall muse on the terror: 'Where is he that counted, where is he that weighed? Where is he that counted the towers?'
你的心追憶起已往的恐怖時，要說：「登記的人員在那裏呢﹖量銀的人員在那裏呢﹖數點城堡的人又在那裏呢﹖」
19 Thou shalt not see the fierce people; a people of a deep speech that thou canst not perceive, of a stammering tongue that thou canst not understand.
你再見不到那野蠻的民族，即言語深邃而難以領悟，說話口吃而不易理喻的民族。
20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemn gatherings; thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a peaceful habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.
你將觀看熙雍，我們集會的城邑；你的眼將見到耶路撒冷，安全的寓所，不動搖的帳幕；她的木樁永不能拔出，她所有的繩索也不能拉斷。
21 But there the LORD will be with us in majesty, in a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.
榮耀的上主在那裏將作我們的巨川大河，沒有舟楫往來其間，也沒有遊艇划過。
22 For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our Lawgiver, the LORD is our King; He will save us.
它的繩索鬆弛了，沒有穩固桅杆的力量，也沒有扯起船帆的力量。
23 Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.
因為上主是我們的判官，上主是我們的立法者，上主是我們的君王，他必拯救我們。
24 And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
那時，瞎子要分得許多戰利品，瘸子要取得擄獲物。 沒有一個居民再會說：「我病了。」住在那裏的人必將獲得罪赦。
