| 依撒意亞 |
Isaiah |
| 1亞述王撒爾貢派遣總司令來到阿市多得，進攻克服阿市多得的那一年── |
1In the year the general sent by Sargon, king of Assyria, fought against Ashdod and captured it, |
| 2那時上主曾藉阿摩茲的兒子依撒意亞發言說：「去！脫下你腰間的苦衣，除去你腳上的鞋！」他就這樣作了，祼體赤足而行── |
2 the LORD gave a warning through Isaiah, the son of Amoz: Go and take off the sackcloth from your waist, and remove the sandals from your feet. This he did, walking naked and barefoot. |
| 3上主說：「就如我的僕人依撒意亞，三年之久，祼體赤足而行，為埃及和雇士是一個預言和先兆； |
3Then the LORD said: Just as my servant Isaiah has gone naked and barefoot for three years as a sign and portent against Egypt and Ethiopia, |
| 4同樣亞述王要將埃及的俘虜和雇士的流徒帶走，無論老幼，一律祼體赤足，露着下體，好羞辱埃及。」 |
4so shall the king of Assyria lead away captives from Egypt, and exiles from Ethiopia, young and old, naked and barefoot, with buttocks uncovered (the shame of Egypt). |
| 5人們將對他們的仰望雇士，對他們的光榮埃及，感到失望和羞慚。 |
5They shall be dismayed and ashamed because of Ethiopia, their hope, and because of Egypt, their boast. |
| 6這一帶海濱的居民，在那天要說：「看！這原是我們所依賴，跑去求救，藉以擺脫亞述王的人！我們又怎能逃避呢？」 |
6The inhabitants of this coastland shall say on that day, "Look at our hope! We have fled here for help and deliverance from the king of Assyria; where can we flee now?" |
