Isaiah 2
1 This is the message that [Yahweh showed me in a vision], concerning Jerusalem and [the rest of] Judea:
亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚得默示，论到犹大和耶路撒冷。
2 [I saw that] in the future, the hill on which Yahweh’s temple is built will be the most important place on the earth; it will be [as though it is] the highest mountain, [as though] it has been raised up above all other hills; and people from all over the world will come there.
末后的日子，耶和华殿的山必坚立， 超乎诸山，高举过于万岭； 万民都要流归这山。
3 People from many people-groups will say [to each other], “Come, let’s go up to the hill, to the temple of Yahweh, to worship the God whom Jacob [worshiped]. [There] Yahweh will teach us what he [desires us to know], in order that our behavior will [please] him. His teaching will be given [to us] in Jerusalem, and [we will take] his message from Jerusalem [to other places/nations].
必有许多国的民前往，说： 来吧，我们登耶和华的山， 奔雅各 神的殿。 主必将他的道教训我们； 我们也要行他的路。 因为训诲必出于锡安； 耶和华的言语必出于耶路撒冷。
4 Yahweh will listen to the disputes between nations and he will settle their arguments. [Then, instead of fighting against each other], they will hammer their swords into plow blades, and they will hammer their spears into pruning knives. [The armies of] nations will no longer fight against each other, and they will not [even] train men to fight in battles/wars.”
他必在列国中施行审判， 为许多国民断定是非。 他们要将刀打成犁头， 把枪打成镰刀。 这国不举刀攻击那国； 他们也不再学习战事。
5 You Israeli people, let’s walk in the light [MET] that comes from Yahweh!
雅各家啊，来吧！ 我们在耶和华的光明中行走。
6 [Yahweh, ] you have abandoned [us] your people who are descendants of Jacob, because everywhere your people practice the customs of people who live east [of Israel]. Your people also perform rituals to find out what will happen in the future, like the people in Philistia do. They make agreements/treaties with (pagans/people who do not know you).
耶和华，你离弃了你百姓雅各家， 是因他们充满了东方的风俗， 作观兆的，像非利士人一样， 并与外邦人击掌。
7 Israel is full of silver and gold; there are very many (treasures/valuable things) here. The land is full of war horses and war chariots.
他们的国满了金银， 财宝也无穷； 他们的地满了马匹， 车辆也无数。
8 [But] the land is [also] full of idols; the people worship things that they have made with their own hands.
他们的地满了偶像； 他们跪拜自己手所造的， 就是自己指头所做的。
9 So now they will be humbled and they will be caused to become disgraced— Yahweh, do not forgive them!
卑贱人屈膝； 尊贵人下跪； 所以不可饶恕他们。
10 All you people should crawl into [the caves in] the rock cliffs! You should hide [in pits/holes] in the ground because of being afraid of Yahweh and of his glorious and awesome power.
你当进入岩穴，藏在土中， 躲避耶和华的惊吓和他威严的荣光。
11 Yahweh will cause you people to no longer be arrogant, and he will stop you from being proud. Only Yahweh will be praised/honored on that day.
到那日，眼目高傲的必降为卑； 性情狂傲的都必屈膝； 惟独耶和华被尊崇。
12 The Commander of the armies of angels has chosen a day when [he will judge] those who are proud, every one of them [DOU], and he will humble them.
必有万军耶和华降罚的一个日子， 要临到骄傲狂妄的； 一切自高的都必降为卑；
13 [He will get rid of all those who think they should be admired like] [MET] the tall cedar trees in Lebanon, and [like] all the great oak trees in the Bashan [region].
又临到黎巴嫩高大的香柏树和巴珊的橡树；
14 He will [get rid of all those who think they are as great as] [MET] all the high hills and even the high mountains.
又临到一切高山的峻岭；
15 He will [get rid of all those who think that they are] high towers and high strong walls [inside of or behind which they will be safe].
又临到高台和坚固城墙；
16 He will destroy all [those who are rich because they own] big ships that carry goods [to other countries] and [they own other] beautiful ships.
又临到他施的船只并一切可爱的美物。
17 He will cause people to no longer be arrogant and he will cause them to stop being proud. Only Yahweh will be praised/honored on that day.
骄傲的必屈膝； 狂妄的必降卑。 在那日，惟独耶和华被尊崇；
18 All idols will (disappear/be destroyed).
偶像必全然废弃。
19 When Yahweh comes to shake/terrify the people on the earth, they will run to hide in caves in rock cliffs and in holes/pits in the ground, because of being afraid of Yahweh and of his glorious and awesome power.
耶和华兴起，使地大震动的时候， 人就进入石洞，进入土穴， 躲避耶和华的惊吓和他威严的荣光。
20 On that day, people will get rid of all their gold and silver idols that they made to worship, and they will throw them to the bats and rats.
到那日，人必将为拜而造的金偶像、银偶像 抛给田鼠和蝙蝠。
21 Then they will crawl into caves and hide in the crags in the cliffs. [They will do that to escape from] the dreadful [punishments] that Yahweh will cause them to endure, from [what he will do because] he is glorious and awesome, when he comes to shake/terrify the people on the earth.
到耶和华兴起，使地大震动的时候， 人好进入磐石洞中和岩石穴里， 躲避耶和华的惊吓和他威严的荣光。
22 [So, ] do not trust that people [will save you], because people are [as powerless as] [MET] their own breath. People certainly cannot help you [RHQ]!
你们休要倚靠世人。 他鼻孔里不过有气息； 他在一切事上可算什么呢？
