依撒意亞 Isaiah
1啊!凡口渴的,請到水泉來!那沒有錢的,也請來罷!請來買不花錢,不索值的酒和奶吃! 1All you that thirst, come to the waters: and you that have no money make haste, buy, and eat: come ye, buy wine and milk without money, and without any price.
2你們為什麼為那些不能充食的東西花錢,為那些不足果腹的東西浪費薪金呢?你們若細心聽我,你們就能吃豐美的食物,你們的心靈必因脂膏而喜悅。 2Why do you spend money for that which is not breed, and your labour for that which doth not satisfy you? Hearken diligently to me, and eat that which is good, and your soul shall be delighted in fatness.
3你們如側耳,走近我前來聽,你們必將獲得生命;我要與你們訂立一項永久的盟約,即誓許於達味的慈惠。 3Incline your ear and come to me: hear and your soul shall live, and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the faithful mercies of David.
4看,我立了你為萬民的證人,為列國的領袖與主宰。 4Behold I have given him for a witness to the people, for a leader and a master to the Gentiles.
5看哪!你要召見你不認識的民族,不曾認識你的民族也要奔向你;這都是為了上主你的天主,為了那光榮了你的以色列的聖者的緣故。 5Behold thou shalt call a nation, which thou knewest not: and the nations that knew not thee shall run to thee, because of the Lord thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for he hath glorified thee.
6趁上主可找到的時候,你們應尋找他;趁他在近處的時候,你們應呼求他。 6Seek ye the Lord, while he may be found: call upon him, while he is near.
7罪人應離開自己的行徑,惡人該拋棄自己的思念,來歸附上主,好讓上主憐憫他;來歸附我們的天主,因為他是富於仁慈的。 7Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unjust man his thoughts, and let him return to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him, and to our God: for he is bountiful to forgive.
8因為我的思念不是你們的思念,你們的行徑也不是我的行徑:上主的斷語。 8For my thoughts are not your thoughts: nor your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
9就如天離地有多高,我的行徑離你們的行徑,我的思念離你們的思念也有多高。 9For as the heavens are exalted above the earth, so are my ways exalted above your ways, and my thoughts above your thoughts.
10譬如雨和雪從天降下,不再返回原處,只有灌溉田地,使之生長萌芽,償還播種者種子,供給吃飯者食糧; 10And as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and return no more thither, but soak the earth, and water it, and make it to spring, and give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11同樣,從我口中發出的言語,不能空空地回到我這裏來;反之,它必行我的旨意,完成我派遣它的使命。 11So shall my word be, which shall go forth from my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall do whatsoever I please, and shall prosper in the things for which I sent it.
12的確,你們必要喜歡地出來,平安地為上主所引導,高山丘陵必在你們面前高呼歡騰,田間所有的樹木必要鼓掌。 12For you shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall sing praise before yen, and all the trees of the country shall clap their hands.
13松柏要長起來代替荊棘,桃金娘要生出來代替苧麻:這將為上主留名,作為一座不能磨滅的永久紀念碑。 13Instead of the shrub, shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the nettle, shall come up the myrtle tree: and the Lord shall be named for an everlasting sign, that shall not be taken away.
