< Isaiah 50 >

1 The Lord seith these thingis, What is this book of forsakyng of youre modir, bi which Y lefte her? ether who is he, to whom Y owe, to whom Y seeld you? For lo! ye ben seeld for youre wickidnessis, and for youre grete trespassis Y lefte youre modir.
耶和华如此说: 我休你们的母亲, 休书在哪里呢? 我将你们卖给我哪一个债主呢? 你们被卖,是因你们的罪孽; 你们的母亲被休,是因你们的过犯。
2 For Y cam, and no man was; Y clepide, and noon was that herde. Whether myn hond is abreggid, and maad litil, that Y mai not ayenbie? ether vertu is not in me for to delyuere? Lo! in my blamyng Y schal make the see forsakun, `ether desert, Y schal sette floodis in the drie place; fischis without watir schulen wexe rotun, and schulen dye for thirst.
我来的时候,为何无人等候呢? 我呼唤的时候,为何无人答应呢? 我的膀臂岂是缩短、不能救赎吗? 我岂无拯救之力吗? 看哪,我一斥责,海就干了; 我使江河变为旷野; 其中的鱼因无水腥臭,干渴而死。
3 Y schal clothe heuenes with derknessis, and Y schal sette a sak the hilyng of tho.
我使诸天以黑暗为衣服, 以麻布为遮盖。
4 The Lord yaf to me a lerned tunge, that Y kunne susteyne hym bi word that failide; erli the fadir reisith, erli he reisith an eere to me, that Y here as a maister.
主耶和华赐我受教者的舌头, 使我知道怎样用言语扶助疲乏的人。 主每早晨提醒, 提醒我的耳朵, 使我能听,像受教者一样。
5 The Lord God openede an eere to me; forsothe Y ayenseie not, Y yede not abak.
主耶和华开通我的耳朵; 我并没有违背,也没有退后。
6 I yaf my bodi to smyteris, and my chekis to pulleris; Y turnede not a wei my face fro men blamynge, and spetynge on me.
人打我的背,我任他打; 人拔我腮颊的胡须,我由他拔; 人辱我,吐我,我并不掩面。
7 The Lord God is myn helpere, and therfor Y am not schent; therfor Y haue set my face as a stoon maad hard, and Y woot that Y schal not be schent.
主耶和华必帮助我, 所以我不抱愧。 我硬着脸面好像坚石; 我也知道我必不致蒙羞。
8 He is niy, that iustifieth me; who ayenseith me? stonde we togidere. Who is myn aduersarie? neiye he to me.
称我为义的与我相近; 谁与我争论, 可以与我一同站立; 谁与我作对, 可以就近我来。
9 Lo! the Lord God is myn helpere; who therfor is he that condempneth me? Lo! alle schulen be defoulid as a cloth, and a mouyte schal ete hem.
主耶和华要帮助我; 谁能定我有罪呢? 他们都像衣服渐渐旧了, 为蛀虫所咬。
10 Who of you dredith the Lord, and herith the vois of his seruaunt? Who yede in dercnessis and liyt is not to hym, hope he in the name of the Lord, and triste he on his God.
你们中间谁是敬畏耶和华、 听从他仆人之话的? 这人行在暗中,没有亮光。 当倚靠耶和华的名, 仗赖自己的 神。
11 Lo! alle ye kyndlynge fier, and gird with flawmes, go in the liyt of youre fier, and in the flawmes whiche ye han kyndlid to you. This is maad of myn hond to you, ye schulen slepe in sorewis.
凡你们点火,用火把围绕自己的 可以行在你们的火焰里, 并你们所点的火把中。 这是我手所定的: 你们必躺在悲惨之中。
