以賽亞書 44
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1我的僕人 雅各 , 我所揀選的 以色列 啊, 現在你當聽。
1Yet now hear, O Jacob My servant, and Israel, whom I have chosen;
2造作你,又從你出胎造就你, 並要幫助你的耶和華如此說: 我的僕人 雅各 , 我所揀選的 耶書崙 哪, 不要害怕!
2Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, who will help thee: Fear not, O Jacob My servant, and thou, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
3因為我要將水澆灌口渴的人, 將河澆灌乾旱之地。 我要將我的靈澆灌你的後裔, 將我的福澆灌你的子孫。
3For I will pour water upon the thirsty land, and streams upon the dry ground; I will pour My spirit upon thy seed, and My blessing upon thine offspring;
4他們要發生在草中, 像溪水旁的柳樹。
4And they shall spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses.
5這個要說:我是屬耶和華的; 那個要以 雅各 的名自稱; 又一個要親手寫:歸耶和華的, 並自稱為 以色列 。
5One shall say: 'I am the LORD'S'; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname himself by the name of Israel.
6耶和華- 以色列 的君, 以色列 的救贖主-萬軍之耶和華如此說: 我是首先的,我是末後的; 除我以外再沒有 真 神。
6Thus saith the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the LORD of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last, and beside Me there is no God.
7自從我設立古時的民, 誰能像我宣告,並且指明,又為自己陳說呢? 讓他將未來的事和必成的事說明。
7And who, as I, can proclaim — let him declare it, and set it in order for Me — since I appointed the ancient people? And the things that are coming, and that shall come to pass, let them declare.
8你們不要恐懼,也不要害怕。 我豈不是從上古就說明指示你們嗎? 並且你們是我的見證! 除我以外,豈有 真 神嗎? 誠然沒有磐石,我不知道一個!
8Fear ye not, neither be afraid; have I not announced unto thee of old, and declared it? And ye are My witnesses. Is there a God beside Me? Yea, there is no Rock; I know not any.
9製造雕刻偶像的盡都虛空;他們所喜悅的都無益處;他們的見證無所看見,無所知曉,他們便覺羞愧。
9They that fashion a graven image are all of them vanity, and their delectable things shall not profit; and their own witnesses see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.
10誰製造神像,鑄造無益的偶像?
10Who hath fashioned a god, or molten an image that is profitable for nothing?
11看哪,他的同伴都必羞愧。工匠也不過是人,任他們聚會,任他們站立,都必懼怕,一同羞愧。
11Behold, all the fellows thereof shall be ashamed; and the craftsmen skilled above men; let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; they shall fear, they shall be ashamed together.
12鐵匠把鐵在火炭中燒熱,用鎚打鐵器,用他有力的膀臂錘成;他飢餓而無力,不喝水而發倦。
12The smith maketh an axe, and worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with his strong arm; yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth; he drinketh no water, and is faint.
13木匠拉線,用筆劃出樣子,用鉋子鉋成形狀,用圓尺劃了模樣,仿照人的體態,做成人形,好住在房屋中。
13The carpenter stretcheth out a line; he marketh it out with a pencil; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compasses, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man, to dwell in the house.
14他砍伐香柏樹,又取柞樹和橡樹,在樹林中選定了一棵。他栽種松樹,得雨長養。
14He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the ilex and the oak, and strengtheneth for himself one among the trees of the forest; he planteth a bay-tree, and the rain doth nourish it.
15這樹,人可用以燒火;他自己取些烤火,又燒着烤餅,而且做神像跪拜,做雕刻的偶像向它叩拜。
15Then a man useth it for fuel; and he taketh thereof, and warmeth himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.
16他把一分燒在火中,把一分烤肉吃飽。自己烤火說:「啊哈,我暖和了,我見火了。」
16He burneth the half thereof in the fire; with the half thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied; yea, he warmeth himself, and saith: 'Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire';
17他用剩下的做了一神,就是雕刻的偶像。他向這偶像俯伏叩拜,禱告它說:「求你拯救我,因你是我的神。」
17And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image; he falleth down unto it and worshippeth, and prayeth unto it, and saith: 'Deliver me, for thou art my god.'
18他們不知道,也不思想;因為耶和華閉住他們的眼,不能看見,塞住他們的心,不能明白。
18They know not, neither do they understand; for their eyes are bedaubed, that they cannot see, and their hearts, that they cannot understand.
19誰心裏也不醒悟,也沒有知識,沒有聰明,能說:「我曾拿一分在火中燒了,在炭火上烤過餅;我也烤過肉吃。這剩下的,我豈要做可憎的物嗎?我豈可向木墩子叩拜呢?」
19And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say: 'I have burned the half of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh and eaten it; and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? Shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?'
20他以灰為食,心中昏迷,使他偏邪,他不能自救,也不能說:「我右手中豈不是有虛謊嗎?」
20He striveth after ashes, a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say: 'Is there not a lie in my right hand?'
21雅各 , 以色列 啊, 你是我的僕人,要記念這些事。 以色列 啊,你是我的僕人, 我造就你必不忘記你。
21Remember these things, O Jacob, and Israel, for thou art My servant; I have formed thee, thou art Mine own servant; O Israel, thou shouldest not forget Me.
22我塗抹了你的過犯,像厚雲 消散 ; 我塗抹了你的罪惡,如薄雲 滅沒 。 你當歸向我,因我救贖了你。
22I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins; return unto Me, for I have redeemed thee.
23諸天哪,應當歌唱, 因為耶和華做成這事。 地的深處啊,應當歡呼; 眾山應當發聲歌唱; 樹林和其中所有的樹都當如此! 因為耶和華救贖了 雅各 , 並要因 以色列 榮耀自己。
23Sing, O ye heavens, for the LORD hath done it; shout, ye lowest parts of the earth; break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein; for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and doth glorify Himself in Israel.
24從你出胎,造就你的救贖主-耶和華如此說: 我-耶和華是創造萬物的, 是獨自鋪張諸天、鋪開大地的。 誰與我同在呢?
24Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, and He that formed thee from the womb: I am the LORD, that maketh all things; that stretched forth the heavens alone; that spread abroad the earth by Myself;
25使說假話的兆頭失效, 使占卜的癲狂, 使智慧人退後, 使他的知識變為愚拙;
25That frustrateth the tokens of the imposters, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
26使我僕人的話語立定, 我使者的謀算成就。 論到 耶路撒冷 說:必有人居住; 論到 猶大 的城邑說:必被建造, 其中的荒場我也必興起。
26That confirmeth the word of His servant, and performeth the counsel of His messengers; that saith of Jerusalem: 'She shall be inhabited'; and of the cities of Judah: 'They shall be built, and I will raise up the waste places thereof';
27對深淵說:你乾了吧! 我也要使你的江河乾涸。
27That saith to the deep: 'Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers';
28論 塞魯士 說: 他是 我的牧人, 必成就我所喜悅的, 必下令建造 耶路撒冷 , 發命立穩聖殿的根基。
28That saith of Cyrus: 'He is My shepherd, and shall perform all My pleasure'; even saying of Jerusalem: 'She shall be built'; and to the temple: 'My foundation shall be laid.'
