Isaiah 51
1 Here ye me, that suen that that is iust, and seken the Lord. Take ye hede to the stoon, fro whennys ye ben hewun doun, and to the caue of the lake, fro which ye ben kit doun.
你們這追求公義、 尋求耶和華的，當聽我言！ 你們要追想被鑿而出的磐石， 被挖而出的巖穴。
2 Take ye heede to Abraham, youre fadir, and to Sare, that childide you; for Y clepide hym oon, and Y blesside hym, and Y multipliede hym.
要追想你們的祖宗亞伯拉罕 和生養你們的撒拉； 因為亞伯拉罕獨自一人的時候， 我選召他，賜福與他， 使他人數增多。
3 Therfor the Lord schal coumforte Sion, and he schal coumforte alle the fallyngis therof; and he schal sette the desert therof as delices, and the wildirnesse therof as a gardyn of the Lord; ioie and gladnesse schal be foundun therynne, the doyng of thankyngis and the vois of heriyng.
耶和華已經安慰錫安 和錫安一切的荒場， 使曠野像伊甸， 使沙漠像耶和華的園囿； 在其中必有歡喜、快樂、感謝， 和歌唱的聲音。
4 Mi puple, take ye heede to me, and, my lynage, here ye me; for whi a lawe schal go out fro me, and my doom schal reste in to the liyt of puplis.
我的百姓啊，要向我留心； 我的國民哪，要向我側耳； 因為訓誨必從我而出； 我必堅定我的公理為萬民之光。
5 My iust man is nyy, my sauyour is gon out, and myn armes schulen deme puplis; ilis schulen abide me, and schulen suffre myn arm.
我的公義臨近； 我的救恩發出。 我的膀臂要審判萬民； 海島都要等候我，倚賴我的膀臂。
6 Reise youre iyen to heuene, and se ye vndur erthe bynethe; for whi heuenes schulen melte awei as smoke, and the erthe schal be al to-brokun as a cloth, and the dwelleris therof schulen perische as these thingis; but myn helthe schal be withouten ende, and my riytfulnesse schal not fayle.
你們要向天舉目， 觀看下地； 因為天必像煙雲消散， 地必如衣服漸漸舊了； 其上的居民也要如此死亡。 惟有我的救恩永遠長存； 我的公義也不廢掉。
7 Ye puple, that knowen the iust man, here me, my lawe is in the herte of hem; nyle ye drede the schenschipe of men, and drede ye not the blasfemyes of hem.
知道公義、將我訓誨存在心中的民， 要聽我言！ 不要怕人的辱罵， 也不要因人的毀謗驚惶。
8 For whi a worm schal ete hem so as a cloth, and a mouyte schal deuoure hem so as wolle; but myn helthe schal be withouten ende, and my riytfulnesse in to generaciouns of generaciouns.
因為蛀蟲必咬他們，好像咬衣服； 蟲子必咬他們，如同咬羊絨。 惟有我的公義永遠長存， 我的救恩直到萬代。
9 Rise thou, rise thou, arm of the Lord, be thou clothyd in strengthe; rise thou, as in elde daies, in generaciouns of worldis. Whether thou smytidist not the proude man, woundidist not the dragoun?
耶和華的膀臂啊，興起！興起！ 以能力為衣穿上， 像古時的年日、上古的世代興起一樣。 從前砍碎拉哈伯、 刺透大魚的，不是你嗎？
10 Whether thou driedist not the see, the watir of the greet depthe, which settidist the depthe of the see a weie, that men `that weren delyuered, schulden passe?
使海與深淵的水乾涸、 使海的深處變為贖民經過之路的， 不是你嗎？
11 And now thei that ben ayenbouyt of the Lord schulen turne ayen, and schulen come heriynge in to Syon, and euerlastynge gladnesse on the heedis of hem; thei schulen holde ioie and gladnesse, sorewe and weilyng schal fle awei.
耶和華救贖的民必歸回， 歌唱來到錫安； 永樂必歸到他們的頭上。 他們必得着歡喜快樂； 憂愁歎息盡都逃避。
12 `Y my silf schal coumforte you; what art thou, that thou drede of a deedli man, and of the sone of man, that schal wexe drie so as hei?
惟有我，是安慰你們的。 你是誰，竟怕那必死的人？ 怕那要變如草的世人？
13 And thou hast foryete `the Lord, thi creatour, that stretchide abrood heuenes, and foundide the erthe; and thou dreddist contynueli al dai of the face of his woodnesse, that dide tribulacioun to thee, and made redi for to leese. Where is now the woodnesse of the troblere?
卻忘記鋪張諸天、立定地基、 創造你的耶和華？ 又因欺壓者圖謀毀滅要發的暴怒， 整天害怕， 其實那欺壓者的暴怒在哪裏呢？
14 Soone he schal come, goynge for to opene; and he schal not sle til to deth, nether his breed schal faile.
被擄去的快得釋放， 必不死而下坑； 他的食物也不致缺乏。
15 Forsothe Y am thi Lord God, that disturble the see, and the wawis therof wexen greet; the Lord of oostis is my name.
我是耶和華－你的上帝－ 攪動大海，使海中的波浪匉訇－ 萬軍之耶和華是我的名。
16 Y haue put my wordis in thi mouth, and Y defendide thee in the schadewe of myn hond; that thou plaunte heuenes, and founde the erthe, and seie to Sion, Thou art my puple.
我將我的話傳給你， 用我的手影遮蔽你， 為要栽定諸天，立定地基， 又對錫安說：你是我的百姓。
17 Be thou reisid, be thou reisid, rise thou, Jerusalem, that hast drunke of the hond of the Lord the cuppe of his wraththe; thou hast drunke `til to the botme of the cuppe of sleep, thou hast drunke of `til to the drastis.
耶路撒冷啊，興起！ 興起！站起來！ 你從耶和華手中喝了他忿怒之杯， 喝了那使人東倒西歪的爵，以致喝盡。
18 Noon is that susteyneth it, of alle the sones whiche it gendride; and noon is that takith the hond therof, of alle the sones whiche it nurshide.
她所生育的諸子中，沒有一個引導她的； 她所養大的諸子中，沒有一個攙扶她的。
19 Twei thingis ben that camen to thee; who schal be sori on thee? distriyng, and defoulyng, and hungur, and swerd. Who schal coumforte thee?
荒涼、毀滅、饑荒、刀兵， 這幾樣臨到你， 誰為你舉哀？ 我如何能安慰你呢？
20 Thi sones ben cast forth, thei slepten in the heed of alle weies, as the beeste orix, takun bi a snare; thei ben ful of indignacioun of the Lord, of blamyng of thi God.
你的眾子發昏， 在各市口上躺臥， 好像黃羊在網羅之中， 都滿了耶和華的忿怒 －你上帝的斥責。
21 Therfor, thou pore, and drunkun, not of wyn, here these thingis.
因此，你這困苦卻非因酒而醉的， 要聽我言。
22 Thi lordli gouernour, the Lord, and thi God, that fauyt for his puple, seith these thingis, Lo! Y haue take fro thyn hond the cuppe of sleep, the botme of the cuppe of myn indignacioun; Y schal not leie to, that thou drynke it ony more.
你的主耶和華－ 就是為他百姓辨屈的上帝如此說： 看哪，我已將那使人東倒西歪的杯， 就是我忿怒的爵， 從你手中接過來； 你必不致再喝。
23 And Y schal sette it in the hond of hem that maden thee low, and seiden to thi soule, Be thou bowid that we passe; and thou hast set thi bodi as erthe, and as a weye to hem that goen forth.
我必將這杯遞在苦待你的人手中； 他們曾對你說：你屈身， 由我們踐踏過去吧！ 你便以背為地， 好像街市，任人經過。
