< Isaiah 35 >
1 The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
旷野和干旱之地必然欢喜; 沙漠也必快乐; 又像玫瑰开花,
2 It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.
必开花繁盛, 乐上加乐,而且欢呼。 黎巴嫩的荣耀, 并迦密与沙 的华美,必赐给它。 人必看见耶和华的荣耀, 我们 神的华美。
3 Strengthen all of you the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.
你们要使软弱的手坚壮, 无力的膝稳固。
4 Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.
对胆怯的人说: 你们要刚强,不要惧怕。 看哪,你们的 神必来报仇, 必来施行极大的报应; 他必来拯救你们。
5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
那时,瞎子的眼必睁开; 聋子的耳必开通。
6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
那时,瘸子必跳跃像鹿; 哑巴的舌头必能歌唱。 在旷野必有水发出; 在沙漠必有河涌流。
7 And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.
发光的沙要变为水池; 干渴之地要变为泉源。 在野狗躺卧之处, 必有青草、芦苇,和蒲草。
8 And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the travelling men, though fools, shall not go astray therein.
在那里必有一条大道, 称为圣路。 污秽人不得经过, 必专为赎民行走; 行路的人虽愚昧, 也不致失迷。
9 No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:
在那里必没有狮子, 猛兽也不登这路; 在那里都遇不见, 只有赎民在那里行走。
10 And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
并且耶和华救赎的民必归回, 歌唱来到锡安; 永乐必归到他们的头上; 他们必得着欢喜快乐, 忧愁叹息尽都逃避。
