< 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 said YHWH: “Where [is] this—the bill of your mother’s divorce, Whom I sent away? Or to which of My creditors have I sold you? Behold, you have been sold for your iniquities, And for your transgressions Your mother has been sent 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。
Why have I come, and there is no one? I called, and there is none answering, Has My hand been at all short of redemption? And is there not power in Me to deliver? Behold, by My rebuke I dry up a sea, I make rivers a wilderness, Their fish stink, for there is no water, And die with 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 their covering sackcloth.”
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。
Lord YHWH has given to Me The tongue of taught ones, To know to aid the weary [by] a word, He awakens [Me] morning by morning, He awakens [My] ear to hear as taught ones.
5 主耶和華開通我的耳朵; 我並沒有違背,也沒有退後。
Lord YHWH opened My ear, And I did not rebel—I did not move 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 have given My back to those striking, And My cheeks to those plucking out, I did not hide 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。
And Lord YHWH gives help to Me, Therefore I have not been ashamed, Therefore I have set My face as a flint, And I know that I am not 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。
Near [is] He who is justifying Me, Who contends with Me? We stand together, who [is] My opponent? 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, Lord YHWH gives help to Me, Who [is] he that declares Me wicked? Behold, all of them wear out as a garment, A moth eats them.
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, fearing YHWH, Listening to the voice of His Servant, That has walked in dark places, And there is no brightness for him? Let him trust in the Name of YHWH, And lean on 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 you kindling a fire, girding on sparks, Walk in the light of your fire, And in the sparks you have caused to burn, This has been to you from My hand, You lie down in grief!”
