Isaiah 16
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Send ye the lambs for the ruler of the land from the crags that are toward the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
1你们当将羊羔奉给那地掌权的， 从 西拉 往旷野，送到 锡安 城的山。
2For it shall be that, as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so shall the daughters of Moab be at the fords of Arnon.
2摩押 的居民在 亚嫩 渡口， 必像游飞的鸟，如拆窝的 雏 。
3'Give counsel, execute justice; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; betray not the fugitive.
3求你献谋略，行公平， 使你的影子在午间如黑夜， 隐藏被赶散的人，不可显露逃民。
4Let mine outcasts dwell with thee; as for Moab, be thou a covert to him from the face of the spoiler.' For the extortion is at an end, spoiling ceaseth, they that trampled down are consumed out of the land;
4求你容我这被赶散的人和你同居。 至于 摩押 ，求你作他的隐密处， 脱离灭命者的面。 勒索人的归于无有， 毁灭的事止息了， 欺压人的从国中除灭了，
5And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
5必有宝座因慈爱坚立； 必有一位诚诚实实坐在其上， 在 大卫 帐幕中施行审判， 寻求公平，速行公义。
6We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud; even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his arrogancy, his ill-founded boastings.
6我们听说 摩押 人骄傲， 是极其骄傲； 听说他狂妄、骄傲、忿怒； 他夸大的话是虚空的。
7Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail; for the sweet cakes of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn, sorely stricken.
7因此， 摩押 人必为 摩押 哀号； 人人都要哀号。 你们 摩押 人要为 吉珥·哈列设 的葡萄饼哀叹， 极其忧伤。
8For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah, whose choice plants did overcome the lords of nations; they reached even unto Jazer, they wandered into the wilderness; her branches were spread abroad, they passed over the sea.
8因为 希实本 的田地 和 西比玛 的葡萄树都衰残了。 列国的君主折断其上美好的枝子； 这枝子长到 雅谢 延到旷野， 嫩枝向外探出，直探过 盐海 。
9Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh; for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the battle shout is fallen.
9因此，我要为 西比玛 的葡萄树哀哭， 与 雅谢 人哀哭一样。 希实本 、 以利亚利 啊， 我要以眼泪浇灌你； 因为有 交战 呐喊的声音 临到你夏天的果子， 并你收割的庄稼。
10And gladness and joy are taken away out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting; no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the vintage shout to cease.
10从肥美的田中夺去了欢喜快乐； 在葡萄园里必无歌唱，也无欢呼的声音。 踹酒的在酒榨中不得踹出酒来； 我使他欢呼的声音止息。
11Wherefore my heart moaneth like a harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir-heres.
11因此，我心腹为 摩押 哀鸣如琴； 我心肠为 吉珥·哈列设 也是如此。
12And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab hath wearied himself upon the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail
12摩押 人朝见的时候，在高处疲乏，又到他圣所祈祷，也不蒙应允。
13This is the word that the LORD spoke concerning Moab in time past.
13这是耶和华从前论 摩押 的话。
14But now the LORD hath spoken, saying: 'Within three years, as the years of a hireling, and the glory of Moab shall wax contemptible for all his great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and without strength.'
14但现在耶和华说：「三年之内，照雇工的年数， 摩押 的荣耀与他的群众必被藐视，余剩的人甚少无几。」
