< Isaiah 4 >
1 And seven women have taken hold on one man, In that day, saying, “We eat our own bread, And we put on our own raiment, Only, let your name be called over us, Remove our reproach.”
那一日,七個女人要抓住一個男人說:「我們吃自己的食糧,穿自己的衣服,只要你容許我們歸於你名下,除去我們的恥辱。」
2 In that day is the Shoot of YHWH for desire and for glory, And the fruit of the earth For excellence and for beauty to the escaped of Israel.
那一日,由上主所發出的苗芽,必成為以色列遺民的光輝與榮耀;地上的果實必成為他們的誇耀與光彩。
3 And it has been, he who is left in Zion, And he who is remaining in Jerusalem, “Holy” is said of him, Of everyone who is written for life in Jerusalem.
凡留在熙雍的,遺在耶路撒冷的,即凡錄在耶路撒冷的生命冊上的,都必將稱為聖者。
4 If the Lord has washed away The filth of daughters of Zion, And purges the blood of Jerusalem from her midst, By the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.
當吾主以懲治的神和毀滅的神,洗淨熙雍女子的污穢,滌除耶路撒冷中間的血漬時,
5 Then YHWH has created Over every fixed place of Mount Zion, And over her convocations, A cloud by day, and smoke, And the shining of a flaming fire by night, That over all glory—a safeguard,
上主將顯現在熙雍山整個地盤與其集會之上:白日藉著雲煙,黑夜藉光亮的火燄;因為在一切之上,有上主的榮耀,有如天蓋和帳棚,
6 And a covering may be, For a shadow from drought by day, And for a refuge, and for a hiding place, From inundation and from rain!
白日作蔭影以免炎暑,又可作庇護,以避狂風暴雨。
