< Isaiah 35 >
1 The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose.
旷野和干旱之地必然欢喜; 沙漠也必快乐; 又像玫瑰开花,
2 It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice, even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the excellence of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, [and] the excellence of our God.
必开花繁盛, 乐上加乐,而且欢呼。 黎巴嫩的荣耀, 并迦密与沙 的华美,必赐给它。 人必看见耶和华的荣耀, 我们 神的华美。
3 Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.
你们要使软弱的手坚壮, 无力的膝稳固。
4 Say to them [that are] of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come [with] vengeance, [even] God [with] a recompense; he will come and save you.
对胆怯的人说: 你们要刚强,不要惧怕。 看哪,你们的 神必来报仇, 必来施行极大的报应; 他必来拯救你们。
5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
那时,瞎子的眼必睁开; 聋子的耳必开通。
6 Then shall the lame [man] leap as a hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
那时,瘸子必跳跃像鹿; 哑巴的舌头必能歌唱。 在旷野必有水发出; 在沙漠必有河涌流。
7 And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, [shall be] grass with reeds and rushes.
发光的沙要变为水池; 干渴之地要变为泉源。 在野狗躺卧之处, 必有青草、芦苇,和蒲草。
8 And a highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called, The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it [shall be] for those: the way-faring men, though fools, shall not err [therein].
在那里必有一条大道, 称为圣路。 污秽人不得经过, 必专为赎民行走; 行路的人虽愚昧, 也不致失迷。
9 No lion shall be there, nor [any] ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk [there]:
在那里必没有狮子, 猛兽也不登这路; 在那里都遇不见, 只有赎民在那里行走。
10 And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
并且耶和华救赎的民必归回, 歌唱来到锡安; 永乐必归到他们的头上; 他们必得着欢喜快乐, 忧愁叹息尽都逃避。
