Isaiah 58

1 "Cry aloud, do not spare, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and declare to my people their disobedience, and to the house of Jacob their sins.

你要大声喊叫，不可止息； 扬起声来，好像吹角。 向我百姓说明他们的过犯； 向雅各家说明他们的罪恶。

2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways: as a nation that did righteousness, and did not forsake the ordinance of their God, they ask of me righteous judgments; they delight to draw near to God.

他们天天寻求我， 乐意明白我的道， 好像行义的国民， 不离弃他们 神的典章， 向我求问公义的判语， 喜悦亲近 神。

3 'Why have we fasted,' say they, 'and you do not see? Why have we afflicted our soul, and you take no knowledge?' "Look, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, and exact all your labors.

他们说：我们禁食，你为何不看见呢？ 我们刻苦己心，你为何不理会呢？ 看哪，你们禁食的日子仍求利益， 勒逼人为你们做苦工。

4 Look, you fast for strife and contention, and to strike with the fist of wickedness: you do not fast this day so as to make your voice to be heard on high.

你们禁食，却互相争竞， 以凶恶的拳头打人。 你们今日禁食， 不得使你们的声音听闻于上。

5 Is such the fast that I have chosen? the day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head as a rush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to Jehovah?

这样禁食岂是我所拣选、 使人刻苦己心的日子吗？ 岂是叫人垂头像苇子， 用麻布和炉灰铺在他以下吗？ 你这可称为禁食、为耶和华所悦纳的日子吗？

6 "Isn't this the fast that I have chosen: to release the bonds of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?

我所拣选的禁食不是要松开凶恶的绳， 解下轭上的索， 使被欺压的得自由， 折断一切的轭吗？

7 Isn't it to distribute your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor who are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and that you not hide yourself from your own flesh?

不是要把你的饼分给饥饿的人， 将飘流的穷人接到你家中， 见赤身的给他衣服遮体， 顾恤自己的骨肉而不掩藏吗？

8 Then your light shall break forth as the morning, and your healing shall spring forth speedily; and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of Jehovah shall be your rear guard.

这样，你的光就必发现如早晨的光； 你所得的医治要速速发明。 你的公义必在你前面行； 耶和华的荣光必作你的后盾。

9 Then you shall call, and Jehovah will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, 'Here I am.' "If you take away from the midst of you the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedly;

那时你求告，耶和华必应允； 你呼求，他必说：我在这里。 你若从你中间除掉重轭 和指摘人的指头，并发恶言的事，

10 and if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul: then your light shall rise in darkness, and your obscurity be as the noonday;

你心若向饥饿的人发怜悯， 使困苦的人得满足， 你的光就必在黑暗中发现； 你的幽暗必变如正午。

11 and Jehovah will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in dry places, and make strong your bones; and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.

耶和华也必时常引导你， 在干旱之地使你心满意足， 骨头强壮。 你必像浇灌的园子， 又像水流不绝的泉源。

12 Those who shall be of you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

那些出于你的人必修造久已荒废之处； 你要建立拆毁累代的根基。 你必称为补破口的， 和重修路径与人居住的。

13 "If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, and the holy of Jehovah honorable; and shall honor it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words:

你若在安息日掉转你的脚步， 在我圣日不以操作为喜乐， 称安息日为可喜乐的， 称耶和华的圣日为可尊重的； 而且尊敬这日， 不办自己的私事， 不随自己的私意， 不说自己的私话，

14 then you shall delight yourself in Jehovah; and I will make you to ride on the high places of the earth; and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father:" for the mouth of Jehovah has spoken it.

你就以耶和华为乐。 耶和华要使你乘驾地的高处， 又以你祖雅各的产业养育你。 这是耶和华亲口说的。
