< Isaiah 52 >

1 Awake, awake, put on your strength, O Zion, Put on the garments of your beauty, Jerusalem—the Holy City; For the uncircumcised and unclean no longer enter into you again.
錫安哪,興起!興起! 披上你的能力! 聖城耶路撒冷啊,穿上你華美的衣服! 因為從今以後, 未受割禮、不潔淨的必不再進入你中間。
2 Shake yourself from dust, arise, sit, O Jerusalem, Bands of your neck have loosed themselves, O captive daughter of Zion.
耶路撒冷啊,要抖下塵土! 起來坐在位上! 錫安被擄的居民哪, 要解開你頸項的鎖鍊!
3 For thus said YHWH: “You have been sold for nothing, And you are redeemed without money.”
耶和華如此說:「你們是無價被賣的,也必無銀被贖。
4 For thus said Lord YHWH: “My people went down at first To Egypt to sojourn there, And Asshur—he has oppressed it for nothing.
主耶和華如此說:起先我的百姓下到埃及,在那裏寄居,又有亞述人無故欺壓他們。
5 And now, what [have] I here,” A declaration of YHWH, “That My people are taken for nothing? Its rulers cause howling,” A declaration of YHWH, “And My Name is continually despised all the day.
耶和華說:我的百姓既是無價被擄去,如今我在這裏做甚麼呢?耶和華說:轄制他們的人呼叫,我的名整天受褻瀆。
6 Therefore My people know My Name, Therefore, in that day, Surely I [am] He who is speaking, behold Me.”
所以,我的百姓必知道我的名;到那日他們必知道說這話的就是我。看哪,是我!」
7 How lovely on the mountains, Have been the feet of one proclaiming tidings, Sounding peace, proclaiming good tidings, Sounding salvation, Saying to Zion, “Your God has reigned.”
那報佳音,傳平安, 報好信,傳救恩的, 對錫安說:你的上帝作王了! 這人的腳登山何等佳美!
8 The voice of your watchmen! They have lifted up the voice, together they cry aloud, Because they see eye to eye, In YHWH’s turning back [to] Zion.
聽啊,你守望之人的聲音, 他們揚起聲來,一同歌唱; 因為耶和華歸回錫安的時候, 他們必親眼看見。
9 Break forth, sing together, O ruins of Jerusalem, For YHWH has comforted His people, He has redeemed Jerusalem.
耶路撒冷的荒場啊, 要發起歡聲,一同歌唱; 因為耶和華安慰了他的百姓, 救贖了耶路撒冷。
10 YHWH has made His holy arm bare Before the eyes of all the nations, And all the ends of the earth have seen The salvation of our God.
耶和華在萬國眼前露出聖臂; 地極的人都看見我們上帝的救恩了。
11 Turn aside, turn aside, go out from there, Do not touch the unclean, Go out from her midst, Be pure, who are carrying the weapons of YHWH.
你們離開吧!離開吧! 從巴比倫出來。 不要沾不潔淨的物; 要從其中出來。 你們扛抬耶和華器皿的人哪, 務要自潔。
12 For you do not go out in haste, Indeed, you do not go on with flight, For YHWH [is] going before you, And the God of Israel [is] gathering you!
你們出來必不致急忙, 也不致奔逃。 因為,耶和華必在你們前頭行; 以色列的上帝必作你們的後盾。
13 “Behold, My Servant acts wisely, He is high, and has been lifted up, And has been very high.”
我的僕人行事必有智慧, 必被高舉上升, 且成為至高。
14 As many have been astonished at You (His appearance so marred by man, And His form by sons of men),
許多人因他驚奇; 他的面貌比別人憔悴; 他的形容比世人枯槁。
15 So He sprinkles many nations. Kings shut their mouth concerning Him, For that which was not recounted to them they have seen, And that which they had not heard they have understood!
這樣,他必洗淨許多國民; 君王要向他閉口。 因所未曾傳與他們的,他們必看見; 未曾聽見的,他們要明白。
