Isaiah 22
1 The burden of the Valley of Vision. What — to thee, now, that thou hast gone up, All of thee — to the roofs?
論異象谷的默示： 有甚麼事使你這滿城的人都上房頂呢？
2 Full of stirs — a noisy city — an exulting city, Thy pierced are not pierced of the sword, Nor dead in battle.
你這滿處吶喊、大有喧嘩的城， 歡樂的邑啊， 你中間被殺的並不是被刀殺， 也不是因打仗死亡。
3 All thy rulers fled together from the bow, Bound have been all found of thee, They have been kept bound together, Afar off they have fled.
你所有的官長一同逃跑， 都為弓箭手所捆綁。 你中間一切被找到的都一同被捆綁； 他們本是逃往遠方的。
4 Therefore I said, 'Look ye from me, I am bitter in my weeping, Haste not to comfort me, For the destruction of the daughter of my people.'
所以我說：你們轉眼不看我， 我要痛哭。 不要因我眾民的毀滅， 就竭力安慰我。
5 For a day of noise, and of treading down, And of perplexity, [is] to the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, In the valley of vision, digging down a wall, And crying unto the mountain.
因為主－萬軍之耶和華使「異象谷」 有潰亂、踐踏、煩擾的日子。 城被攻破， 哀聲達到山間。
6 And Elam hath borne a quiver, In a chariot of men — horsemen, And Kir hath exposed a shield.
以攔帶着箭袋， 還有坐戰車的和馬兵； 吉珥揭開盾牌。
7 And it cometh to pass, The choice of thy valleys have been full of chariots, And the horsemen place themselves diligently at the gate.
你嘉美的谷遍滿戰車， 也有馬兵在城門前排列。
8 And one removeth the covering of Judah, And thou lookest in that day Unto the armour of the house of the forest,
他去掉猶大的遮蓋。 那日，你就仰望林庫內的軍器。
9 And the breaches of the city of David ye have seen, For they have become many, And ye gather the waters of the lower pool,
你們看見大衛城的破口很多，便聚積下池的水，
10 And the houses of Jerusalem ye did number, And ye break down the houses to fence the wall.
又數點耶路撒冷的房屋，將房屋拆毀，修補城牆，
11 And a ditch ye made between the two walls, For the waters of the old pool, And ye have not looked unto its Maker, And its Framer of old ye have not seen.
又在兩道城牆中間挖一個聚水池可盛舊池的水，卻不仰望做這事的主，也不顧念從古定這事的。
12 And call doth the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, In that day, to weeping and to lamentation, And to baldness and to girding on of sackcloth,
當那日，主－萬軍之耶和華叫人哭泣哀號， 頭上光禿，身披麻布。
13 And lo, joy and gladness, slaying of oxen, And slaughtering of sheep, Eating of flesh, and drinking of wine, Eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.
誰知，人倒歡喜快樂， 宰牛殺羊，吃肉喝酒，說： 我們吃喝吧！因為明天要死了。
14 And revealed it hath been in mine ears, [By] Jehovah of Hosts: Not pardoned is this iniquity to you, Till ye die, said the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts.
萬軍之耶和華親自默示我說： 這罪孽直到你們死，斷不得赦免！ 這是主－萬軍之耶和華說的。
15 Thus said the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts: 'Go, enter in unto this steward, Unto Shebna, who [is] over the house:
主－萬軍之耶和華這樣說：「你去見掌銀庫的，就是家宰舍伯那，對他說：
16 What — to thee here? And who — to thee here? That thou hast hewn out to thee here — a sepulchre? Hewing on high his sepulchre, Graving in a rock a dwelling for himself.
『你在這裏做甚麼呢？有甚麼人竟在這裏鑿墳墓，就是在高處為自己鑿墳墓，在磐石中為自己鑿出安身之所？
17 Lo, Jehovah is casting thee up and down, A casting up and down, O mighty one,
看哪，耶和華必像大有力的人，將你緊緊纏裹，竭力拋去。
18 And thy coverer covering, wrapping round, Wrappeth thee round, O babbler, On a land broad of sides — there thou diest, And there the chariots of thine honour [Are] the shame of the house of thy lord.
他必將你滾成一團，拋在寬闊之地，好像拋球一樣。你這主人家的羞辱，必在那裏坐你榮耀的車，也必在那裏死亡。
19 And I have thrust thee from thy station, And from thine office he throweth thee down.
我必趕逐你離開官職；你必從你的原位撤下。』
20 And it hath come to pass, in that day, That I have called to my servant, To Eliakim son of Hilkiah.
「到那日，我必召我僕人希勒家的兒子以利亞敬來，
21 And I have clothed him with thy coat, And with thy girdle I strengthen him, And thy garment I give into his hand, And he hath been for a father to the inhabitant of Jerusalem, And to the house of Judah.
將你的外袍給他穿上，將你的腰帶給他繫緊，將你的政權交在他手中。他必作耶路撒冷居民和猶大家的父。
22 And I have placed the key Of the house of David on his shoulder, And he hath opened, and none is shutting, And hath shut, and none is opening.
我必將大衛家的鑰匙放在他肩頭上。他開，無人能關；他關，無人能開。
23 And I have fixed him a nail in a stedfast place, And he hath been for a throne of honour To the house of his father.
我必將他安穩，像釘子釘在堅固處；他必作為他父家榮耀的寶座。
24 And they have hanged on him All the honour of the house of his father, The offspring and the issue, All vessels of small quality, From vessels of basins to all vessels of flagons.
他父家所有的榮耀，連兒女帶子孫，都掛在他身上，好像一切小器皿，從杯子到酒瓶掛上一樣。
25 In that day — an affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, Moved is the nail that is fixed In a stedfast place, Yea, it hath been cut down, and hath fallen, And cut off hath been the burden that [is] on it, For Jehovah hath spoken!'
萬軍之耶和華說：當那日，釘在堅固處的釘子必壓斜，被砍斷落地；掛在其上的重擔必被剪斷。因為這是耶和華說的。」
