Isaiah 25
1 O YHWH, You [are] my God, I exalt You, I confess Your Name, For You have done a wonderful thing, Counsels of old, steadfastness, O steadfast One.
上主！你是我的天主，我要稱揚你，我要讚頌你的名，因為你忠實真誠地成就了你舊日的奇妙計劃。
2 For You made of a city a heap, Of a fortified city a ruin, A high place of strangers from [being] a city, It is not built for all time.
因為你使那城成了一堆瓦礫，使設防的城市化為一片荒涼，使傲慢人的城堡不像城市，永遠不得重建。
3 Therefore a strong people honors You, A city of the terrible nations fears You.
為此，強大的民族要頌揚你，威武邦國的城市要敬畏你。
4 For You have been a stronghold for the poor, A stronghold for the needy in his distress, A refuge from storm, a shadow from heat, When the spirit of the terrible [is] as a storm—a wall.
因為你是窮苦人的屏障，是患難中貧乏人的屏障，避風暴的藏身處，避炎熱的蔭涼所；因為殘暴人的狂怒有如冬日的暴風，
5 As heat in a dry place, You humble the noise of strangers, [As] heat with the shadow of a thick cloud, The singing of the terrible is humbled.
有如旱地上的炎熱。傲慢人的狂暴你已抑止，有如濃蔭減輕了熱氣；連殘暴人的歌聲也從此低降。
6 And YHWH of Hosts has made, For all the peoples in this mountain, A banquet of fat things, A banquet of preserved things, Fat things full of marrow, Preserved things—refined.
萬軍的上主在這座山上，要為萬民擺設肥甘的盛宴，美酒的盛宴；肥甘是精選的，美酒是醇清的。
7 And He has swallowed up in this mountain The face of the wrapping that is wrapped over all the peoples, And of the covering that is spread over all the nations.
在這座山上，你要撤除那封在萬民上的封面，那蓋在各國上的帷幔。
8 He has swallowed up death in victory, And Lord YHWH has wiped [the] tear from off all faces, And He turns aside the reproach of His people from off all the earth, For YHWH has spoken.
他要永遠取消死亡，吾主上主要從人人的臉上拭去淚痕，要由整個地面除去自己民族的恥辱：因為上主說了。
9 And [one] has said in that day, “Behold, this [is] our God, We waited for Him, and He saves us, This [is] YHWH, we have waited for Him, We are glad and rejoice in His salvation!”
到那一天，人要說：「看！這是我們所依賴拯救我們的天主；這是我們所依賴的上主，我們要因他的救援鼓舞喜樂，
10 For the hand of YHWH rests on this mountain, And Moab is trodden down under Him, As straw is trodden down on a dunghill.
因為上主的手停留在這山上。」敵人要在自己的地方受踐踏，有如禾湝被踐踏在糞坑之中。
11 And He spread out His hands in its midst, As the swimmer spreads out to swim; And He has humbled his excellence With the machinations of his hands.
他要在其中伸開雙手，如同游泳的伸手游泳；但他的傲慢和他的手段已受了挫折。
12 And the fortress of the high place of your walls He has bowed down—He has made low, He has caused [it] to come to the earth—to dust.
他城牆上高聳的保壘必被打倒、推翻，倒在地上化為塵埃。
