以賽亞書 50
1 耶和華如此說： 我休你們的母親， 休書在哪裏呢？ 我將你們賣給我哪一個債主呢？ 你們被賣，是因你們的罪孽； 你們的母親被休，是因你們的過犯。
Thus saith the LORD: Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, wherewith I have put her away? Or which of My creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities were ye sold, and for your transgressions was your mother put away.
2 我來的時候，為何無人等候呢？ 我呼喚的時候，為何無人答應呢？ 我的膀臂豈是縮短、不能救贖嗎？ 我豈無拯救之力嗎？ 看哪，我一斥責，海就乾了； 我使江河變為曠野； 其中的魚因無水腥臭，乾渴而死。
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is My hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at My rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness; their fish become foul, because there is no water, and die for thirst.
3 我使諸天以黑暗為衣服， 以麻布為遮蓋。
I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
4 主耶和華賜我受教者的舌頭， 使我知道怎樣用言語扶助疲乏的人。 主每早晨提醒， 提醒我的耳朵， 使我能聽，像受教者一樣。
The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I should know how to sustain with words him that is weary; He wakeneth morning by morning, He wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught.
5 主耶和華開通我的耳朵； 我並沒有違背，也沒有退後。
The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward.
6 人打我的背，我任他打； 人拔我腮頰的鬍鬚，我由他拔； 人辱我，吐我，我並不掩面。
I gave my back to the smiters, and my checks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
7 主耶和華必幫助我， 所以我不抱愧。 我硬着臉面好像堅石； 我也知道我必不致蒙羞。
For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore have I not been confounded; therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.
8 稱我為義的與我相近； 誰與我爭論， 可以與我一同站立； 誰與我作對， 可以就近我來。
He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together; who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.
9 主耶和華要幫助我； 誰能定我有罪呢？ 他們都像衣服漸漸舊了， 為蛀蟲所咬。
Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they all shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.
10 你們中間誰是敬畏耶和華、 聽從他僕人之話的？ 這人行在暗中，沒有亮光。 當倚靠耶和華的名， 仗賴自己的上帝。
Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of His servant? though he walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
11 凡你們點火，用火把圍繞自己的 可以行在你們的火焰裏， 並你們所點的火把中。 這是我手所定的： 你們必躺在悲慘之中。
Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that gird yourselves with firebrands, begone in the flame of your fire, and among the brands that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of My hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
