Isaiah 6
1 In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne; he was high and elevated, and the hem of his robe filled the temple.
當烏西雅王崩的那年，我見主坐在高高的寶座上。他的衣裳垂下，遮滿聖殿。
2 Above him were the seraphim; each one had six wings; with two each covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.
其上有撒拉弗侍立，各有六個翅膀：用兩個翅膀遮臉，兩個翅膀遮腳，兩個翅膀飛翔；
3 Each one called to another and said, “Holy, holy, holy, is Yahweh of hosts! The whole earth is full of his glory.”
彼此呼喊說： 聖哉！聖哉！聖哉！萬軍之耶和華； 他的榮光充滿全地！
4 The foundations of the thresholds shook at the voices of those who were crying out, and the house was filled with smoke.
因呼喊者的聲音，門檻的根基震動，殿充滿了煙雲。
5 Then I said, “Woe is me! For I am doomed because I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, because my eyes have seen the King, Yahweh, Yahweh of hosts!”
那時我說：「禍哉！我滅亡了！因為我是嘴唇不潔的人，又住在嘴唇不潔的民中，又因我眼見大君王－萬軍之耶和華。」
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me; he had a glowing coal in his hand, that he had taken with the tongs from off the altar.
有一撒拉弗飛到我跟前，手裏拿着紅炭，是用火剪從壇上取下來的，
7 He touched my mouth with it and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt has been taken away, and your sin atoned for.”
將炭沾我的口，說：「看哪，這炭沾了你的嘴，你的罪孽便除掉，你的罪惡就赦免了。」
8 I heard the voice of the Lord say, “Whom shall I send; who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here I am; send me.”
我又聽見主的聲音說：「我可以差遣誰呢？誰肯為我們去呢？」我說：「我在這裏，請差遣我！」
9 He said, “Go and tell this people, 'Listen, but do not understand; see, but do not perceive.'
他說：「你去告訴這百姓說： 你們聽是要聽見，卻不明白； 看是要看見，卻不曉得。
10 Make the heart of this people insensitive, and their ears dull, and blind their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and then turn and be healed.”
要使這百姓心蒙脂油， 耳朵發沉， 眼睛昏迷； 恐怕眼睛看見， 耳朵聽見， 心裏明白， 回轉過來，便得醫治。」
11 Then I said, “Lord, how long?” He answered, “Until cities crash into ruins and are without inhabitants, and the houses are without people, and the land falls into a desolate waste,
我就說：「主啊，這到幾時為止呢？」他說： 直到城邑荒涼，無人居住， 房屋空閒無人，地土極其荒涼。
12 and until Yahweh has sent the people far away, and the solitude of the land is great.
並且耶和華將人遷到遠方， 在這境內撇下的地土很多。
13 Even if a tenth of the people remain in it, it will again be destroyed; as a terebinth or an oak is cut down and whose trunk remains, the holy seed is in its stump.”
境內剩下的人若還有十分之一， 也必被吞滅， 像栗樹、橡樹雖被砍伐， 樹墩子卻仍存留。 這聖潔的種類在國中也是如此。
