Isaiah 10
1 Alas! for them who ordain iniquitous decrees, —And, busy writers, who make a business of writing mischief:
祸哉！那些设立不义之律例的 和记录奸诈之判语的，
2 Turning aside from judgment, the poor, And robbing, of justice, the oppressed of my people, —So that, widows, become, their spoil, And of the fatherless, they make 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, then, will ye do for the day of visitation, And for the devastation, which from afar, shall come? Unto whom, will ye flee for help? And where will ye leave your gory?
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 Without me, one hath bowed under a prisoner Yea under the slain, do they fall! For all this, hath his anger, not turned back, But still, is his hand outstretched.
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! for Assyria, the rod of mine anger, —Yea, the very staff in their hand, is, my displeasure:
亚述是我怒气的棍， 手中拿我恼恨的杖。
6 Against an irreligious nation, will I send him, Yea against the people with whom I am wroth, will I command him, —To capture spoil And lay hold on prey, And cause them to be trodden down as the mire of the lanes.
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 But as for him, not so, doth he deem, And in his heart, not so, doth he think, —For, to destroy, is in his heart, And to cut off nations, not a few;
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 saith: —Are not, my generals, all alike, kings?
他说：我的臣仆岂不都是王吗？
9 Is not, Calno, like Carchemish? Is not, Hamath, like Arpad? Is not, 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 hath reached unto the kingdoms of idols, —whose images did excel them of Jerusalem and 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 images?
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 Wherefore it shall come to pass—When My Lord shall finish his whole work upon Mount Zion and upon Jerusalem, I will bring punishment—Upon the fruit of the greatness of heart of the king of Assyria. And upon the vainglory of his uplifted eyes,
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 hath said—By the strength of mine own hand, have I effectually wrought, And by my wisdom—for I have discernment, —That I might remove the bounds of peoples, Yea their treasures, have I plundered That I might lay prostrate as a mighty one the inhabitants;
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 And my hand hath found as a nest the wealth of the peoples, And as the gathering of eggs that are forsaken, all the earth, have, I, gathered, —And there was none to flap a wing, or open a mouth or chirp.
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 Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? Or, the saw, magnify itself, against him that wieldeth it? As if a rod, could wield, them who lift it up! As if a staff, could raise, what 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, shall the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, Send, among his fat ones, leanness, And under his glory, shall he kindle a kindling, like the kindling 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 So shall, the Light of Israel, become, a fire, And his Holy One, a flame, Which shall burn and consume his thorns and his briars, 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 And the glory of his forest and of his garden land, both soul and body, shall it bring to an end, —And it shall be like the wasting away of a consumptive.
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 And, the remnant of his forest-trees, few in number, shall become, —yea, a child, might describe them!
他林中剩下的树必稀少， 就是孩子也能写其数。
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, That the remnant of Israel. And the escaped of the house of Jacob Shall, no more again, lean upon him that smote them, —But shall lean upon Yahweh 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, shall return, The remnant of Jacob, —unto 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 thy people, O Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, A [mere] remnant, shall return of them, —A full end decreed, bringeth in, justice, like a flood;
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 For, a full end and that a decreed one, is My Lord Yahweh of hosts executing in the midst of all 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, thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh of hosts, Do not fear O my people dwelling in Zion, because of Assyria, —When with his rod, he would smite thee, And when his staff, he would lift up against thee in the manner of Egypt;
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 displeasure shall end, Yea, mine anger, over their 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 And Yahweh of hosts, will brandish over him, a scourge—Like the smiting of Midian at the rock Oreb, —And his staff being over the sea, He will lift it up in the manner of 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 And it shall come to pass, in that day, That his burden shall remove from off thy shoulder, And his yoke from off thy neck, —Yea, the yoke shall be broken because of fatness.
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 hath come in unto Ayyath, Hath passed through Migron, —At Michmash, storeth his baggage:
亚述王来到亚叶， 经过米矶 ， 在密抹安放辎重。
29 They have passed over the pass, Geba is his halting-place, —Terror-stricken is Ramah, Gibeah of Saul, hath 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 Make shrill thy voice, O daughter of Gallim! Hearken, O Laishah, Answer, O 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, hath fled, —The inhabitants of Gebim, have gone into safety:
玛得米那人躲避； 基柄的居民逃遁。
32 While yet to-day, in Nob, he tarrieth, He brandisheth his hand toward The mount 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 Behold! the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, is about to lop off a tree-crown, with a crash, —Then shall, they who are lifted on high, be hewn down, And, the lofty, be laid 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 Then will he fell the thickets of the forest with iron, —And, Lebanon by a majestic one shall fall.
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。
