Isaiah

禍哉！你這毀滅人的，自己倒不被毀滅；行事詭詐的，人倒不以詭詐待你。你毀滅罷休了，自己必被毀滅；你行完了詭詐，人必以詭詐待你。

Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou {wast} not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; {and} when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.

耶和華啊，求你施恩於我們；我們等候你。求你每早晨作我們的膀臂，遭難的時候為我們的拯救。

O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.

喧嚷的響聲一發，眾民奔逃；你一興起，列國四散。

At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.

你們所擄的必被斂盡，好像螞蚱吃（原文是斂）盡禾稼。人要蹦在其上，好像蝗蟲一樣。

And your spoil shall be gathered {like} the gathering of the caterpiller: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.

耶和華被尊崇，因他居在高處；他以公平公義充滿錫安。

The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.

你一生一世必得安穩─有豐盛的救恩，並智慧和知識；你以敬畏耶和華為至寶。

And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, {and} strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD {is} his treasure. {salvation: Heb. salvations}

看哪，他們的豪傑在外頭哀號；求和的使臣痛痛哭泣。

Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly. {valiant...: or, messengers}

大路荒涼，行人止息；敵人背約，藐視城邑，不顧人民。

The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.

地上悲哀衰殘；利巴嫩羞愧枯乾；沙崙像曠野；巴珊和迦密的樹林凋殘。

The earth mourneth {and} languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed {and} hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off {their fruits}. {hewn...: or, withered away}

耶和華說：現在我要起來；我要興起；我要勃然而興。

Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.

你們要懷的是糠秕，要生的是碎秸；你們的氣就是吞滅自己的火。

Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, {as} fire, shall devour you.

列邦必像已燒的石灰，像已割的荊棘在火中焚燒。

And the people shall be {as} the burnings of lime: {as} thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.

你們遠方的人當聽我所行的；你們近處的人當承認我的大能。

Hear, ye {that are} far off, what I have done; and, ye {that are} near, acknowledge my might.

錫安中的罪人都懼怕；不敬虔的人被戰兢抓住。我們中間誰能與吞滅的火同住？我們中間誰能與永火同住呢？

The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?

行事公義、說話正直、憎惡欺壓的財利、擺手不受賄賂、塞耳不聽流血的話，閉眼不看邪惡事的，

He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; {righteously: Heb. in righteousnesses} {uprightly: Heb. uprightnesses} {oppressions: or, deceits} {blood: Heb. bloods}

他必居高處；他的保障是磐石的堅壘；他的糧必不缺乏（原文是賜給）；他的水必不斷絕。

He shall dwell on high: his place of defence {shall be} the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters {shall be} sure. {high: Heb. heights, or, high places}

你的眼必見王的榮美，必見遼闊之地。

Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off. {that...: Heb. of far distances}

你的心必思想那驚嚇的事，自問說：記數目的在哪裡呢？平貢銀的在哪裡呢？數戍樓的在哪裡呢？

Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where {is} the scribe? where {is} the receiver? where {is} he that counted the towers? {receiver: Heb. weigher?}

你必不見那強暴的民，就是說話深奧，你不能明白，言語呢喃，你不能懂得的。

Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, {that thou canst} not understand. {stammering: or, ridiculous}

你要看錫安─我們守聖節的城！你的眼必見耶路撒冷為安靜的居所，為不挪移的帳幕，橛子永不拔出，繩索一根也不折斷。

Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle {that} shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.

在那裡，耶和華必顯威嚴與我們同在，當作江河寬闊之地；其中必沒有盪槳搖櫓的船來往，也沒有威武的船經過。

But there the glorious LORD {will be} unto us a place of broad rivers {and} streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. {of...: Heb. broad of spaces, or, hands}

因為，耶和華是審判我們的；耶和華是給我們設律法的；耶和華是我們的王；他必拯救我們。

For the LORD {is} our judge, the LORD {is} our lawgiver, the LORD {is} our king; he will save us. {lawgiver: Heb. statutemaker}

你的繩索鬆開：不能栽穩桅杆，也不能揚起篷來。那時許多擄來的物被分了；瘸腿的把掠物奪去了。

Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. {Thy...: or, They have forsaken thy tacklings}

城內居民必不說：我病了；其中居住的百姓，罪孽都赦免了。

And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein {shall be} forgiven {their} iniquity.
