Esias 14
1 And the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and they shall rest on their land: and the stranger shall be added to them, yea, shall be added to the house of Jacob.
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。
2 And the Gentiles shall take them, and bring them into their place: and they shall inherit them, and they shall be multiplied upon the land for servants and handmaidens: and they that took them captives shall become captives [to them]; and they that had lordship over them shall be under [their] rule.
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。
3 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the Lord shall give thee rest from thy sorrow and vexation, [and from] thy hard servitude wherein thou didst serve them.
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，
4 And thou shalt take up this lamentation against the king of Babylon, How has the extortioner ceased, and the taskmaster ceased!
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？
5 The Lord has broken the yoke of sinners, the yoke of princes.
耶和華折斷了惡人的杖， 轄制人的圭，
6 Having smitten a nation in wrath, with an incurable plague, smiting a nation with a wrathful plague, which spared [them] not, he rested in quiet.
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。
7 All the earth cries aloud with joy:
現在全地得安息，享平靜； 人皆發聲歡呼。
8 the trees also of Libanus rejoice against thee, and the cedar of Libanus, [saying], From the time that thou hast been laid low, no one has come up to cut us down.
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。
9 Hell from beneath is provoked to meet thee: all the great ones that have ruled over the earth have risen up together against thee, they that have raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
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。 (Sheol h7585)
10 All shall answer and say to thee, Thou also hast been taken, even as we; and thou art numbered amongst us.
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？
11 Thy glory has come down to Hades, and thy great mirth: under thee they shall spread corruption, and the worm shall be thy covering. (Sheol h7585)
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。 (Sheol h7585)
12 How has Lucifer, that rose in the morning, fallen from heaven! He that sent [orders] to all the nations is crushed to the earth.
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？
13 But thou saidst in thine heart, I will go up to heaven, I will set my throne above the stars of heaven: I will sit on a lofty mount, on the lofty mountains toward the north:
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。
14 I will go up above the clouds: I will be like the Most High.
我要升到高雲之上； 我要與至上者同等。
然而，你必墜落陰間， 到坑中極深之處。 (Sheol h7585)
16 They that see thee shall wonder at thee, and say, This is the man that troubled the earth, that made kings to shake;
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，
17 that made the whole world desolate, and destroyed its cities; he loosed not those who were in captivity.
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？
18 All the kings of the nations lie in honour, [every] man in his house.
列國的君王 俱各在自己陰宅的榮耀中安睡。
19 But thou shalt be cast forth on the mountains, as a loathed carcase, with many dead who have been pierced with swords, going down to the grave.
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。
20 As a garment defiled with blood shall not be pure, so neither shalt thou be pure; because thou hast destroyed my land, and hast slain my people: thou shalt not endure for ever, —[thou] an evil seed.
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。
21 Prepare thy children to be slain for the sins of their father; that they arise not, and inherit the earth, nor fill the earth with wars.
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 And I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will destroy their name, and remnant, and seed: thus saith the Lord.
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 And I will make the region of Babylon desert, so that hedgehogs shall dwell [there], and it shall come to nothing: and I will make it a pit of clay for destruction.
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。
24 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, As I have said, so it shall be: and as I have purposed, so [the matter] shall remain:
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，
25 [even] to destroy the Assyrians upon my land, and upon my mountains: and they shall be for trampling; and their yoke shall be taken away from them, and their glory shall be taken away from their shoulders.
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。
26 This is the purpose which the Lord has purposed upon the whole earth: and this the hand that is uplifted against all the nations.
這是向全地所定的旨意； 這是向萬國所伸出的手。
27 For what the Holy God has purposed, who shall frustrate? and who shall turn back his uplifted hand?
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？
28 In the year in which king Achaz died this word came.
亞哈斯王崩的那年，就有以下的默示：
29 Rejoice not, all ye Philistines, because the yoke of him that smote you is broken: for out of the seed of the serpent shall come forth the young asps, and their young shall come forth flying serpents,
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。
30 And the poor shall be fed by him, and poor men shall rest in peace: but he shall destroy thy seed with hunger, and shall destroy thy remnant.
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。
31 Howl, ye gates of cities; let the cities be troubled and cry, [even] all the Philistines: for smoke is coming from the north, and there is no [possibility] of living.
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。
32 And what shall the kings of the nations answer? That the Lord has founded Sion, and by him the poor of the people shall be saved.
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。
