Isaiah 25
1 O Yahweh! my God, thou art, I will exalt thee, I will praise thy Name, For thou hast done a wonderful thing, —Purposes of long ago Faithfulness in truth.
耶和华啊，你是我的 神； 我要尊崇你，我要称赞你的名。 因为你以忠信诚实行过奇妙的事， 成就你古时所定的。
2 For thou hast made, of a citadel, a mound, of a defenced city, a ruin, —palaces for foreigners to be no city, To times age-abiding, shall it not be built.
你使城变为乱堆， 使坚固城变为荒场， 使外邦人宫殿的城不再为城， 永远不再建造。
3 For this cause! shall glorify thee—a strong people, the city of tyrannous nations shall revere thee;
所以，刚强的民必荣耀你； 强暴之国的城必敬畏你。
4 For thou didst become A refuge to the weak. A refuge to the needy, when distress was upon him, —A shelter from the storm. A shade from the heat, When the blast of tyrants was like a storm against a wall.
因为当强暴人催逼人的时候， 如同暴风直吹墙壁， 你就作贫穷人的保障， 作困乏人急难中的保障， 作躲暴风之处， 作避炎热的阴凉。
5 As heat in a desert, the pomp of foreigners, wilt thou subdue, —Heat—with the shade of a cloud, The song of tyrants! become low.
你要压制外邦人的喧哗， 好像干燥地的热气下落； 禁止强暴人的凯歌， 好像热气被云影消化。
6 Then will Yahweh of hosts prepare for all the peoples in this mountain, A banquet of fat things, A banquet of old wines, —Of fat things full of marrow, Of old wines well refined;
在这山上，万军之耶和华必为万民用肥甘设摆筵席，用陈酒和满髓的肥甘，并澄清的陈酒，设摆筵席。
7 And he will swallow up in this mountain, The mask of the veil, the veil that is upon all the peoples, —And the web that is woven over all the nations.
他又必在这山上除灭遮盖万民之物和遮蔽万国蒙脸的帕子。
8 Having swallowed up death itself victoriously, My Lord, Yahweh, will wipe away, tears from off all faces, —And the reproach of his own people, will he remove from off all the earth, For, Yahweh, hath spoken.
他已经吞灭死亡直到永远。主耶和华必擦去各人脸上的眼泪，又除掉普天下他百姓的羞辱，因为这是耶和华说的。
9 So shall it be said, in that day, Lo! our God, is this! We waited for him, that he might save us, —This, is Yahweh! We waited for him, Let us exult and rejoice in his salvation.
到那日，人必说：“看哪，这是我们的 神；我们素来等候他，他必拯救我们。这是耶和华，我们素来等候他，我们必因他的救恩欢喜快乐。”
10 For the hand of Yahweh will settle down in this mountain, —Then shall Moab be trodden down in its place, Like the treading down of a strawheap in the water of a dunghill;
耶和华的手必按在这山上；摩押人在所居之地必被践踏，好像干草被践踏在粪池的水中。
11 Should he spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, As a swimmer spreadeth forth to swim, Then would be laid low his pride, together with the devices of his hands.
他必在其中伸开手，好像洑水的伸开手洑水一样；但耶和华必使他的骄傲和他手所行的诡计一并败落。
12 Yea, the lofty stronghold of thy walls, Hath he brought down—Laid low—Levelled to the ground even unto the dust.
耶和华使你城上的坚固高台倾倒，拆平，直到尘埃。
