Isaiah 2
1 This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
阿摩茲的兒子依撒意亞關於猶大和耶路撒冷所見的事情：
2 It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of Jehovah's house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.
到末日，上主的聖殿山必要矗立在群山之上，超乎一切山岳，萬民都要向它湧來。
3 And many peoples shall come and say, "Come, let's go up to the mountain of Jehovah, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths." For out of Zion the law shall go forth, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
將有許多民族前去，說：「來！我們攀登上主的聖山，往雅各伯天主的殿裏去！他必指示我們他的道路，教給我們循行他的途徑。因為法律將出自熙雍，上主的話將出自耶路撒冷。」
4 He will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
他將統治萬邦，治理眾民；致使眾人都把自己的刀劍鑄成鋤頭，將自己的槍矛製成鐮刀；民族與民族不再持刀相向，人也不再學習戰鬥。
5 House of Jacob, come, and let us walk in the light of Jehovah.
雅各伯家！ 來讓我們在上主的光明中行走罷！
6 For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines, and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
是的！上主拋棄了自己的百姓──雅各伯家族──因為他們充滿了術士和占卜者，有如培肋舍特人一樣，且與異民握手言歡。
7 Their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures. Their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
他們的地域充滿了金銀，財寶不可估計；他們的地域充滿了馬匹，戰車不可勝數。
8 Their land also is full of idols. They worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
遍地都是偶像，人人崇拜自己手做的東西，崇拜自己手指的造像。
9 So people bow down, people are low, therefore do not lift them up.
如此，人自甘卑下，自甘墮落，對他們決無救援。
10 Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty.
當上主起來震撼大地時，你要潛入巖穴，躲在土中，為逃避上主的威嚇和他顯赫的光輝。
11 The proud looks of humankind will be brought low, and the arrogance of people will be brought down; and Jehovah alone will be exalted in that day.
目空一切的人必被抑制，性情高傲的人必被屈服：那一日，唯有上主受尊崇。
12 For there will be a day of Jehovah of hosts for all that is proud and haughty, and for all that is lifted up and high; and it shall be brought low:
因為萬軍的上主必有一日，要攻擊所有驕矜自誇和自高自大的人，並加以抑制。
13 For all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,
必要攻擊黎巴嫩的一切高大香柏樹和巴商的一切樟樹；
14 For all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,
必要攻擊一切高山和聳峙的山嶺，
15 For every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,
一切高塔和一切堅固的城牆，
16 For all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.
塔爾史士的一切船隻和一切美觀的畫舫。
17 The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
人的傲慢必被屈服，人的驕矜必被抑制：那一日唯有上主受尊崇。
18 The idols shall utterly pass away.
上主必要完全毀滅偶像。
19 Men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
當上主起來震撼大地時，你們應潛入巖洞，躲在土穴中，為逃避上主的威嚇和顯嚇的光輝。
20 In that day, people will cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold to the rodents and to the bats, which have been made for themselves to worship;
那一日，人必將為自己製造來崇拜的銀像和金像，拋給鼴鼠和蝙蝠，
21 to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
以便在上主起來震撼大地的時候，逃避上主的威嚇和他顯赫的光輝，而隱藏在磐石的孔洞裏和巖石的隙縫中。
22 Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?
你們不要依恃人，因為他只有一口氣在鼻孔裏，他可算得什麼﹖
