Isaiah 27
1 In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that [is] in the sea.
到那一天，上主要用他那厲害、巨大、猛烈的劍，來懲罰「里外雅堂」飛龍，和「里外雅堂」蜿蛇；並要擊殺海中的蛟龍。
2 In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine.
到那一天，你們要唱「那可愛的葡萄園」歌：「
3 I the LORD do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest [any] hurt it, I will keep it night and day.
我，上主，親自作它的護守者，時加灌溉；我要日夜護守，免得受人侵害。
4 Fury [is] not in me: who would set the briers [and] thorns against me in battle? I would go through them, I would burn them together.
我再沒有怒氣；萬一有了荊棘和蒺藜，我必前去攻擊，將它完全焚毀；
5 Or let him take hold of my strength, [that] he may make peace with me; [and] he shall make peace with me.
除非不求我保護，不與我講和，不與我和好．．．」
6 He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.
來自雅各伯將生根，以色列要發芽開花，她的果實要佈滿地面。
7 Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? [or] is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?
上主打擊以色列，那裏像他打擊那些打擊以色列的人呢﹖上主擊殺以色列，那裏像他擊殺那些擊殺以色列的人呢﹖
8 In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.
上主以離棄，以驅逐，懲罰了她；在吹東風的日子，藉巨風將她捲去。
9 By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this [is] all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves and images shall not stand up.
惟其如此，雅各伯的罪過方得消除；她的罪孽得以赦免的代價，即在於她將祭壇所有的石塊，打得粉碎有如石灰，不在樹立「阿舍辣」和太陽柱。
10 Yet the defenced city [shall be] desolate, [and] the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.
的確，設防的城市已荒涼，成了被撇下和放棄的住宅，有如荒野。牛犢在那裏牧放，在那裏偃臥，吃盡了那裏的枝葉。
11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off: the women come, [and] set them on fire: for it [is] a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour.
幾時樹枝枯萎，就自會斷落，婦女便來拿去燒火；她既不是個聰敏的民族，因此那創造她的，對她沒有憐憫；那形成她的，對她也不表恩情。
12 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the LORD shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
到那一天，上主要從大河流域到埃及河畔收割果實，以色列子民啊！你們都要一個一個地被聚集起來。
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem.
到那一天，要吹起大號筒，凡是在亞述失迷的，在埃及地分散的，都要前來，在耶路撒冷聖山，朝拜上主。
