Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1This is the burden against Babylon that Isaiah son of Amoz received:
1亞摩斯 的兒子 以賽亞 得默示，論 巴比倫 。
2Raise a banner on a barren hilltop; call aloud to them. Wave your hand, that they may enter the gates of the nobles.
2應當在淨光的山豎立大旗， 向群眾揚聲招手， 使他們進入貴冑的門。
3I have commanded My sanctified ones; I have even summoned My warriors to execute My wrath and exult in My triumph.
3我吩咐我所挑出來的人； 我招呼我的勇士－ 就是那矜誇高傲之輩， 為要成就我怒中所定的。
4Listen, a tumult on the mountains, like that of a great multitude! Listen, an uproar among the kingdoms, like nations gathered together! The LORD of Hosts is mobilizing an army for war.
4山間有多人的聲音， 好像是大國人民。 有許多國的民聚集鬨嚷的聲音； 這是萬軍之耶和華點齊軍隊，預備打仗。
5They are coming from faraway lands, from the ends of the heavens— the LORD and the weapons of His wrath— to destroy the whole country.
5他們從遠方來， 從天邊來， 就是耶和華並他惱恨的兵器 要毀滅這全地。
6Wail, for the Day of the LORD is near; it will come as destruction from the Almighty.
6你們要哀號， 因為耶和華的日子臨近了！ 這日來到， 好像毀滅從全能者來到。
7Therefore all hands will fall limp, and every man’s heart will melt.
7所以，人手都必軟弱； 人心都必消化。
8Terror, pain, and anguish will seize them; they will writhe like a woman in labor. They will look at one another, their faces flushed with fear.
8他們必驚惶悲痛； 愁苦必將他們抓住。 他們疼痛，好像產難的婦人一樣， 彼此驚奇相看，臉如火焰。
9Behold, the Day of the LORD is coming— cruel, with fury and burning anger— to make the earth a desolation and to destroy the sinners within it.
9耶和華的日子臨到， 必有殘忍、忿恨、烈怒， 使這地荒涼， 從其中除滅罪人。
10For the stars of heaven and their constellations will not give their light. The rising sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light.
10天上的眾星群宿都不發光； 日頭一出就變黑暗； 月亮也不放光。
11I will punish the world for its evil and the wicked for their iniquity. I will end the haughtiness of the arrogant and lay low the pride of the ruthless.
11我必因邪惡刑罰世界， 因罪孽刑罰惡人， 使驕傲人的狂妄止息， 制伏強暴人的狂傲。
12I will make man scarcer than pure gold, and mankind rarer than the gold of Ophir.
12我必使人比精金還少， 使人比 俄斐 純金更少。
13Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken from its place at the wrath of the LORD of Hosts on the day of His burning anger.
13我－萬軍之耶和華在忿恨中發烈怒的日子， 必使天震動， 使地搖撼，離其本位。
14Like a hunted gazelle, like a sheep without a shepherd, each will return to his own people, each will flee to his native land.
14人必像被追趕的鹿， 像無人收聚的羊， 各歸回本族， 各逃到本土。
15Whoever is caught will be stabbed, and whoever is captured will die by the sword.
15凡被 仇敵 追上的必被刺死； 凡被捉住的必被刀殺。
16Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes, their houses will be looted, and their wives will be ravished.
16他們的嬰孩必在他們眼前摔碎； 他們的房屋必被搶奪； 他們的妻子必被玷污。
17Behold, I will stir up against them the Medes, who have no regard for silver and no desire for gold.
17我必激動 米底亞 人來攻擊他們。 米底亞 人不注重銀子， 也不喜愛金子。
18Their bows will dash young men to pieces; they will have no mercy on the fruit of the womb; they will not look with pity on the children.
18他們必用弓擊碎少年人， 不憐憫婦人所生的， 眼也不顧惜孩子。
19And Babylon, the jewel of the kingdoms, the glory of the pride of the Chaldeans, will be overthrown by God like Sodom and Gomorrah.
19巴比倫 素來為列國的榮耀， 為 迦勒底 人所矜誇的華美， 必像上帝所傾覆的 所多瑪 、 蛾摩拉 一樣。
20She will never be inhabited or settled from generation to generation; no nomad will pitch his tent there, no shepherd will rest his flock there.
20其內必永無人煙， 世世代代無人居住。 阿拉伯 人也不在那裏支搭帳棚； 牧羊的人也不使羊群臥在那裏。
21But desert creatures will lie down there, and howling creatures will fill her houses. Ostriches will dwell there, and wild goats will leap about.
21只有曠野的走獸臥在那裏； 咆哮的獸滿了房屋。 鴕鳥住在那裏； 野山羊在那裏跳舞。
22Hyenas will howl in her fortresses and jackals in her luxurious palaces. Babylon’s time is at hand, and her days will not be prolonged.
22豺狼必在它宮中呼號； 野狗必在它華美殿內吼叫。 巴比倫 受罰 的時候臨近； 它的日子必不長久。
