< Isaiah 10 >

1 Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write oppressive decrees;
祸哉!那些设立不义之律例的 和记录奸诈之判语的,
2 to deprive the needy from justice, and to rob the poor among my people of their rights, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey.
为要屈枉穷乏人, 夺去我民中困苦人的理, 以寡妇当作掳物, 以孤儿当作掠物。
3 What will you do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth,
到降罚的日子,有灾祸从远方临到, 那时,你们怎样行呢? 你们向谁逃奔求救呢? 你们的荣耀存留何处呢?
4 so as not to kneel with the prisoners, or fall among the slain? For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
他们只得屈身在被掳的人以下, 仆倒在被杀的人以下。 虽然如此,耶和华的怒气还未转消; 他的手仍伸不缩。
5 Alas Assyrian, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my indignation.
亚述是我怒气的棍, 手中拿我恼恨的杖。
6 I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people who anger me will I give him a command to take the spoil and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
我要打发他攻击亵渎的国民, 吩咐他攻击我所恼怒的百姓, 抢财为掳物,夺货为掠物, 将他们践踏,像街上的泥土一样。
7 However he doesn't mean so, neither does his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off not a few nations.
然而,他不是这样的意思; 他心也不这样打算。 他心里倒想毁灭, 剪除不少的国。
8 For he says, "Aren't all of my officials kings?
他说:我的臣仆岂不都是王吗?
9 Isn't Calno like Carchemish? Isn't Hamath like Arpad? Isn't Samaria like Damascus?
迦勒挪岂不像迦基米施吗? 哈马岂不像亚珥拔吗? 撒马利亚岂不像大马士革吗?
10 As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, whose engraved images exceeded those of Jerusalem and of Samaria;
我手已经搆到有偶像的国; 这些国雕刻的偶像 过于耶路撒冷和撒马利亚的偶像。
11 shall I not, as I have done to Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?"
我怎样待撒马利亚和其中的偶像, 岂不照样待耶路撒冷和其中的偶像吗?
12 Therefore it will happen that, when the LORD has performed his whole work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, he will punish the fruit of the willful proud heart of the king of Assyria, and the insolence of his haughty looks.
主在锡安山和耶路撒冷成就他一切工作的时候,主说:“我必罚亚述王自大的心和他高傲眼目的荣耀。”
13 For he has said, "By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I have understanding: and I have removed the boundaries of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures. Like a valiant man I have brought down their rulers.
因为他说: 我所成就的事是靠我手的能力 和我的智慧, 我本有聪明。 我挪移列国的地界, 抢夺他们所积蓄的财宝; 并且我像勇士,使坐宝座的降为卑。
14 My hand has found the riches of the peoples like a nest, and like one gathers eggs that are abandoned, have I gathered all the earth. There was no one who moved their wing, or that opened their mouth, or chirped."
我的手搆到列国的财宝, 好像人搆到鸟窝; 我也得了全地, 好像人拾起所弃的雀蛋。 没有动翅膀的; 没有张嘴的,也没有鸣叫的。
15 Should an axe brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who is not wood.
斧岂可向用斧砍木的自夸呢? 锯岂可向用锯的自大呢? 好比棍抡起那举棍的, 好比杖举起那非木的人。
16 Therefore the LORD of hosts, will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled like the burning of fire.
因此,主—万军之耶和华 必使亚述王的肥壮人变为瘦弱, 在他的荣华之下必有火着起, 如同焚烧一样。
17 The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.
以色列的光必如火; 他的圣者必如火焰。 在一日之间,将亚述王的荆棘 和蒺藜焚烧净尽;
18 He will consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints.
又将他树林和肥田的荣耀全然烧尽, 好像拿军旗的昏过去一样。
19 The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child could write their number.
他林中剩下的树必稀少, 就是孩子也能写其数。
20 It will come to pass in that day that the remnant of Israel, and those who have escaped from the house of Jacob will no more again lean on him who struck them, but shall lean on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
到那日,以色列所剩下的和雅各家所逃脱的,不再倚靠那击打他们的,却要诚实倚靠耶和华—以色列的圣者。
21 A remnant will return, even the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.
所剩下的,就是雅各家所剩下的,必归回全能的 神。
22 For though your people, Israel, are as the sand of the sea, a remnant will be kept safe. For he will fulfill the word and decisively in righteousness;
以色列啊,你的百姓虽多如海沙,惟有剩下的归回。原来灭绝的事已定,必有公义施行,如水涨溢。
23 because the LORD will carry out the word decisively in the midst of the earth.
因为主—万军之耶和华在全地之中必成就所定规的结局。
24 Therefore the LORD of hosts says: "My people who dwell in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrian, though he strike you with the rod, and lift up his staff against you, as Egypt did.
所以,主—万军之耶和华如此说:“住锡安我的百姓啊,亚述王虽然用棍击打你,又照埃及的样子举杖攻击你,你却不要怕他。
25 For yet a very little while, and the indignation against you will be accomplished, and my anger will be directed to his destruction."
因为还有一点点时候,向你们发的忿恨就要完毕,我的怒气要向他发作,使他灭亡。
26 The LORD of hosts will stir up a scourge against him, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb. His rod will be over the sea, and he will lift it up like he did against Egypt.
万军之耶和华要兴起鞭来攻击他,好像在俄立磐石那里杀戮米甸人一样。耶和华的杖要向海伸出,把杖举起,像在埃及一样。
27 It will happen in that day, that his burden will depart from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
到那日,亚述王的重担必离开你的肩头;他的轭必离开你的颈项;那轭也必因肥壮的缘故撑断。”
28 He has come to Aiath. He has passed through Migron. At Michmash he stores his baggage.
亚述王来到亚叶, 经过米矶 , 在密抹安放辎重。
29 He went through the pass. He has lodged at Geba. Ramah trembles. Gibeah of Saul has fled.
他们过了隘口, 在迦巴住宿。 拉玛人战兢; 扫罗的基比亚人逃跑。
30 Cry aloud with your voice, daughter of Gallim. Listen, Laishah. You poor Anathoth.
迦琳的居民哪,要高声呼喊! 莱煞人哪,须听! 哀哉!困苦的亚拿突啊。
31 Madmenah is a fugitive. The inhabitants of Gebim flee for safety.
玛得米那人躲避; 基柄的居民逃遁。
32 This very day he will halt at Nob. He shakes his hand at the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
当那日,亚述王要在挪伯歇兵, 向锡安女子的山— 就是耶路撒冷的山—抡手攻他。
33 Look, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, will lop the boughs with terror. The tall will be cut down, and the lofty will be brought low.
看哪,主—万军之耶和华 以惊吓削去树枝; 长高的必被砍下, 高大的必被伐倒。
34 He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
稠密的树林,他要用铁器砍下; 黎巴嫩的树木必被大能者伐倒。
