以賽亞書 44
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
World English Bible
1我的僕人 雅各 ， 我所揀選的 以色列 啊， 現在你當聽。
1Yet listen now, 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！
2This is what the LORD who made you, and formed you from the womb, who will help you says: “Don’t be afraid, Jacob my servant; and you, 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 on him who is thirsty, and streams on the dry ground. I will pour my Spirit on your descendants, and my blessing on your offspring;
4他們要發生在草中， 像溪水旁的柳樹。
4and they will 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 will say, ‘I am the LORD’s.’ Another will be called by the name of Jacob; and another will write with his hand ‘to the LORD,’ and honor 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。
6This is what the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer, the LORD of Armies, says: “I am the first, and I am the last; and besides 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。
7Who is like me? Who will call, and will declare it, and set it in order for me, since I established the ancient people? Let them declare the things that are coming, and that will happen.
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！
8Don’t fear, neither be afraid. Haven’t I declared it to you long ago, and shown it? You are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? Indeed, there is not. I don’t know any other Rock.”
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。
9Everyone who makes a carved image is vain. The things that they delight in will not profit. Their own witnesses don’t see, nor know, that they may be disappointed.
10誰製造神像，鑄造無益的偶像？
10Who has fashioned a god, or molds 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 his fellows will be disappointed; and the workmen are mere men. Let them all be gathered together. Let them stand up. They will fear. They will be put to shame 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 blacksmith takes an ax, works in the coals, fashions it with hammers, and works it with his strong arm. He is hungry, and his strength fails; he drinks 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 stretches out a line. He marks it out with a pencil. He shapes it with planes. He marks it out with compasses, and shapes it like the figure of a man, with the beauty of a man, to reside in a 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 cuts down cedars for himself, and takes the cypress and the oak, and strengthens for himself one among the trees of the forest. He plants a cypress tree, and the rain nourishes 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 it will be for a man to burn; and he takes some of it and warms himself. Yes, he burns it and bakes bread. Yes, he makes a god and worships it; he makes it a carved image, and falls down to it.
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 burns part of it in the fire. With part of it, he eats meat. He roasts a roast and is satisfied. Yes, he warms himself and says, “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。」
17The rest of it he makes into a god, even his engraved image. He bows down to it and worships, and prays to it, and says, “Deliver me, for you are 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 don’t know, neither do they consider, for he has shut their eyes, that they can’t see, and their hearts, that they can’t 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？」
19No one thinks, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, “I have burned part of it in the fire. Yes, I have also baked bread on its coals. I have roasted meat and eaten it. Shall I make the rest of it into an abomination? Shall I bow down to a tree trunk?”
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 feeds on ashes. A deceived heart has turned him aside; and he can’t deliver his soul, nor say, “Isn’t there 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, Jacob and Israel, for you are my servant. I have formed you. You are my servant. Israel, you will not be forgotten by 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, your transgressions, and, as a cloud, your sins. Return to me, for I have redeemed you.
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, you heavens, for the LORD has done it! Shout, you lower parts of the earth! Break out into singing, you mountains, O forest, all of your trees, for the LORD has redeemed Jacob, and will 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？
24The LORD, your Redeemer, and he who formed you from the womb says: “I am the LORD, who makes all things; who alone stretches out the heavens; who spreads out 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；
25who frustrates the signs of the liars, and makes diviners mad; who turns wise men backward, and makes 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。
26who confirms the word of his servant, and performs the counsel of his messengers; who says of Jerusalem, ‘She will be inhabited;’ and of the cities of Judah, ‘They will be built,’ and ‘I will raise up its waste places;’
27對深淵說：你乾了吧！ 我也要使你的江河乾涸。
27who says to the deep, ‘Be dry,’ and ‘I will dry up your 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。
28who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure,’ even saying of Jerusalem, ‘She will be built;’ and of the temple, ‘Your foundation will be laid.’”
