依撒依亚 Isaiah
1雅各伯家,请听这话:──你们以以色列的名字自称,出自犹大之后,奉上主的名字起誓,又称扬「以色列的天主」,但都不是出自诚心诚意; 1Listen to this, House of Jacob, called by the name of Israel and born out of Judah's womb, you who swear by the name of Yahweh and invoke the God of Israel, though not in truth or righteousness -
2虽然你们自称是出自圣城,依赖名为「万军上主」的以色列的天主── 2calling yourselves after the holy city, and relying on the God of Israel whose name is Yahweh Sabaoth.
3「那过去的事,我早就预言过了,由我口中所发出的,也叫人听见了;转瞬间我行了那事,那事也就成就了。 3From long ago I revealed things past: they went forth from my mouth; I declared them. Then suddenly I acted and the word came to be.
4因为我知道你是顽固的,你的颈项似铁杠,你的额是铜制的, 4Because I know that you are stubborn, your head as hard as iron, your forehead as bronze,
5为此我早就告诉了你,在事未发生之前我就向你说明了,免得你说:『是我的神像行了这事,是我彫刻铸成的神像命定了这事。』 5So I told you about them; before they took place I let you hear of them, lest you should say: "My idols did these, my graven image, my molten image commanded them."
6你既听见了,也看见了这一切,难道你们不该作证吗?如今我要宣布新事,即你不知的隐密事。 6Now that you have heard and seen, will you not admit it? From now on I will tell you new things, even hidden things you have not known before.
7这些事是现今而不是从前造成的,是今日之前你从没有听说过的,免得你说:『看,我早就知道了!』 7They are created now and not long ago; up to this day you have not heard of them lest you should say, "I already knew."
8你从来没有听过,也不知道,也是你的耳朵闻所未闻的。因为我知道你好背信叛逆,你实在可称为『胎生的叛徒。』 8You have not heard, you didn't know nor were your ears opened before, for I knew how treacherous you were - you who from birth have been called a rebel.
9但是为了我名的缘故,我暂缓发怒;为了我荣誉的缘故,我抑制了我自己,而没有消灭你。 9For my name's sake I delayed my anger, for my honor's sake I restrained it, lest I destroy you.
10看啊!我只是锻炼了你,有如银子,在患难的炉中磨炼了你。 10See: I have refined you as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
11为了我自己,为了我自己的缘故,我必要去行。我岂能让我的名字受亵渎?我决不将我的光荣让与别人。」 11But now for my own sake I will act, yes, for my own sake. For how could I let my Name be defiled? Never will I yield my glory to another.
12雅各伯啊!我所召叫的以色列啊!你听我说:我就是那位,我是元始,我也是终末。 12Listen to me, O Jacob, Israel whom I have called, I am the same, I am the first, and I am also the last.
13我的手奠定了大地,我的右手展开了诸天;我一叫它们,它们就一同出现。 13My hand laid the foundation of the earth, my right hand spread out the heavens. When I call on the stars they all stand forth together.
14你们都集合起来听罢!邪神中有谁预言了这事呢?「我所爱的,必实行我的旨意:攻击巴比伦和加色丁的苗裔。」 14Assemble, all of you, and listen. Who among them has foretold these things? The beloved of Yahweh will do what pleases him with Babylon and the people of Chaldea.
15只有我,只有我预言了这事,召叫了他,引导了他,使他所行的道路顺利。 15I, yes I myself, have spoken; I myself called him and made him prosper in his way.
16你们走近我前,听这话罢!我从起初就没有在暗处说过话,从实现之时起,我就在那里。我上主现在即要施行救援。 16Come near me and listen to this: From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time that it happened I have been there. Know then, that Yahweh the Lord, with his Spirit has sent me!
17你的救主上主,以色列的圣者这样说:「我是上主你的天主,教训你为你有益的事,引你走当走的道路。 17Thus says Yahweh, your Re-deemer, the Holy One of Israel: I, Yahweh, your God, teach you what is best for you; I lead you in the way that you must go.
18恨不得你一向听从我的命令!那么你的安乐将似江河,你的幸福将似海涛; 18Had you paid attention to my commandments, your peace would have been like a river, your righteousness like the waves of the sea.
19你的子孙多如海沙,出于你身的苗裔多似沙粒;你的名字在我前决不会抹去,也决不会被删除。」 19Your descendants would have been like the sand, and those born of your stock like its grains, their names never cut off nor blotted out from my presence.
20你们出离巴比伦,逃出加色丁罢!你们要以欢乐的呼声宣告此事,叫人听见,传布到地极说:「上主救赎了他的仆人雅各伯。」 20"Go forth from Babylon, flee from Chaldea!" Declare this with shouts of joy, make this known to the ends of the earth. Proclaim: Yahweh has redeemed his servant Jacob!
21当上主率领他们过旷野时,他们并不觉渴,因为他使水由巖石中流出给他们喝;他分开了巖石,水就涌流出来。 21Those he led through the desert were never thirsty. He made water flow for them from the rock; he split the rock and water gushed out.
22上主说:恶人决无平安! 22There is no peace for the wicked, Yahweh says.
