< Isaiah 4 >
1 And seven women will take hold of one man in that day, saying, Our own bread, will we eat, And our own apparel, will we wear, —Only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach.
那一日,七個女人要抓住一個男人說:「我們吃自己的食糧,穿自己的衣服,只要你容許我們歸於你名下,除去我們的恥辱。」
2 In that day, Shall the Bud of Yahweh, become beautiful and glorious, —And the Fruit of the Land splendid and majestic, To the escaped of Israel.
那一日,由上主所發出的苗芽,必成為以色列遺民的光輝與榮耀;地上的果實必成為他們的誇耀與光彩。
3 And it shall come to pass—He that is left in Zion! And he that remaineth in Jerusalem, Shall be called, holy, —Everyone written unto life in Jerusalem.
凡留在熙雍的,遺在耶路撒冷的,即凡錄在耶路撒冷的生命冊上的,都必將稱為聖者。
4 When My Lord shall have bathed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, And the blood-guiltiness of Jerusalem, he shall wash away out of her midst, —By the spirit of judgment, and By the spirit of thorough cleansing,
當吾主以懲治的神和毀滅的神,洗淨熙雍女子的污穢,滌除耶路撒冷中間的血漬時,
5 Then will Yahweh, create—Over all the home of Mount Zion and Over her assembly, A cloud by day and a smoke, And the shining of a fire-flame, by night, —For over all the glory, shall be a canopy;
上主將顯現在熙雍山整個地盤與其集會之上:白日藉著雲煙,黑夜藉光亮的火燄;因為在一切之上,有上主的榮耀,有如天蓋和帳棚,
6 And a pavilion, shall there be For a shade by day, from the heat, —and For a refuge and for a shelter, from storm and from rain.
白日作蔭影以免炎暑,又可作庇護,以避狂風暴雨。
