Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob; once again He will choose Israel and settle them in their own land. The foreigner will join them and unite with the house of Jacob.
1耶和華要憐恤 雅各 ,必再揀選 以色列 ,將他們安置在本地。寄居的必與他們聯合,緊貼 雅各 家。
2The nations will escort Israel and bring it to its homeland. Then the house of Israel will possess the nations as menservants and maidservants in the LORD’s land. They will make captives of their captors and rule over their oppressors.
2外邦人必將他們帶回本土; 以色列 家必在耶和華的地上得外邦人為僕婢,也要擄掠先前擄掠他們的,轄制先前欺壓他們的。
3On the day that the LORD gives you rest from your pain and torment, and from the hard labor into which you were forced,
3當耶和華使你脫離愁苦、煩惱,並人勉強你做的苦工,得享安息的日子,
4you will sing this song of contempt against the king of Babylon: How the oppressor has ceased, and how his fury has ended!
4你必題這詩歌論 巴比倫 王說: 欺壓人的何竟熄滅? 強暴的何竟止息?
5The LORD has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers.
5耶和華折斷了惡人的杖, 轄制人的圭,
6It struck the peoples in anger with unceasing blows; it subdued the nations in rage with relentless persecution.
6就是在忿怒中連連攻擊眾民的, 在怒氣中轄制列國, 行逼迫無人阻止的。
7All the earth is at peace and at rest; they break out in song.
7現在全地得安息,享平靜; 人皆發聲歡呼。
8Even the cypresses and cedars of Lebanon exult over you: “Since you have been laid low, no woodcutter comes against us.”
8松樹和 黎巴嫩 的香柏樹 都因你歡樂, 說 : 自從你仆倒, 再無人上來砍伐我們。
9Sheol beneath is eager to meet you upon your arrival. It stirs the spirits of the dead to greet you— all the rulers of the earth. It makes all the kings of the nations rise from their thrones.
9你下到陰間, 陰間就因你震動來迎接你, 又因你驚動在世曾為首領的陰魂, 並使那曾為列國君王的, 都離位站起。
10They will all respond to you, saying, “You too have become weak, as we are; you have become like us!”
10他們都要發言對你說: 你也變為軟弱像我們一樣嗎? 你也成了我們的樣子嗎?
11Your pomp has been brought down to Sheol, along with the music of your harps. Maggots are your bed and worms your blanket.
11你的威勢和你琴瑟的聲音都下到陰間。 你下鋪的是蟲,上蓋的是蛆。
12How you have fallen from heaven, O day star, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to the ground, O destroyer of nations.
12明亮之星,早晨之子啊, 你何竟從天墜落? 你這攻敗列國的何竟被砍倒在地上?
13You said in your heart: “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north.
13你心裏曾說: 我要升到天上; 我要高舉我的寶座在上帝眾星以上; 我要坐在聚會的山上,在北方的極處。
14I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”
14我要升到高雲之上; 我要與至上者同等。
15But you will be brought down to Sheol, to the lowest depths of the Pit.
15然而,你必墜落陰間, 到坑中極深之處。
16Those who see you will stare; they will ponder your fate: “Is this the man who shook the earth and made the kingdoms tremble,
16凡看見你的都要定睛看你, 留意看你, 說 : 使大地戰抖, 使列國震動,
17who turned the world into a desert and destroyed its cities, who refused to let the captives return to their homes?”
17使世界如同荒野, 使城邑傾覆, 不釋放被擄的人歸家, 是這個人嗎?
18All the kings of the nations lie in state, each in his own tomb.
18列國的君王 俱各在自己陰宅的榮耀中安睡。
19But you are cast out of your grave like a rejected branch, covered by those slain with the sword, and dumped into a rocky pit like a carcass trampled underfoot.
19惟獨你被拋棄, 不得入你的墳墓, 好像可憎的枝子, 以被殺的人為衣, 就是被刀刺透, 墜落坑中石頭那裏的; 你又像被踐踏的屍首一樣。
20You will not join them in burial, since you have destroyed your land and slaughtered your own people. The offspring of the wicked will never again be mentioned.
20你不得與君王同葬; 因為你敗壞你的國,殺戮你的民。 惡人後裔的名,必永不提說。
21Prepare a place to slaughter his sons for the iniquities of their forefathers. They will never rise up to possess a land or cover the earth with their cities.
21先人既有罪孽, 就要預備殺戮他的子孫, 免得他們興起來,得了遍地, 在世上修滿城邑。
22“I will rise up against them,” declares the LORD of Hosts. “I will cut off from Babylon her name and her remnant, her offspring and her posterity,” declares the LORD.
22萬軍之耶和華說: 我必興起攻擊他們, 將 巴比倫 的名號和所餘剩的人, 連子帶孫一併剪除。 這是耶和華說的。
23“I will make her a place for owls and for swamplands; I will sweep her away with the broom of destruction,” declares the LORD of Hosts.
23我必使 巴比倫 為箭豬所得, 又變為水池; 我要用滅亡的掃帚掃淨它。 這是萬軍之耶和華說的。
24The LORD of Hosts has sworn: “Surely, as I have planned, so will it be; as I have purposed, so will it stand.
24萬軍之耶和華起誓說: 我怎樣思想,必照樣成就; 我怎樣定意,必照樣成立,
25I will break Assyria in My land; I will trample him on My mountain. His yoke will be taken off My people, and his burden removed from their shoulders.”
25就是在我地上打折 亞述 人, 在我山上將他踐踏。 他加的軛必離開 以色列 人; 他加的重擔必離開他們的肩頭。
26This is the plan devised for the whole earth, and this is the hand stretched out over all the nations.
26這是向全地所定的旨意; 這是向萬國所伸出的手。
27The LORD of Hosts has purposed, and who can thwart Him? His hand is outstretched, so who can turn it back?
27萬軍之耶和華既然定意,誰能廢棄呢? 他的手已經伸出,誰能轉回呢?
28In the year that King Ahaz died, this burden was received:
28亞哈斯 王崩的那年,就有以下的默示:
29Do not rejoice, all you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken. For a viper will spring from the root of the snake, and a flying serpent from its egg.
29非利士 全地啊, 不要因擊打你的杖折斷就喜樂。 因為從蛇的根必生出毒蛇; 牠所生的是火焰的飛龍。
30Then the firstborn of the poor will find pasture, and the needy will lie down in safety, but I will kill your root by famine, and your remnant will be slain.
30貧寒人的長子必有所食; 窮乏人必安然躺臥。 我必以饑荒治死你的根; 你所餘剩的人必被殺戮。
31Wail, O gate! Cry out, O city! Melt away, all you Philistines! For a cloud of smoke comes from the north, and there are no stragglers in its ranks.
31門哪,應當哀號! 城啊,應當呼喊! 非利士 全地啊,你都消化了! 因為有煙從北方出來, 他行伍中並無亂隊的。
32What answer will be given to the envoys of that nation? “The LORD has founded Zion, where His afflicted people will find refuge.”
32可怎樣回答外邦的使者呢? 必說:耶和華建立了 錫安 ; 他百姓中的困苦人必投奔在其中。
