< 以賽亞書 66 >

1 耶和華如此說: 天是我的座位; 地是我的腳凳。 你們要為我造何等的殿宇? 哪裏是我安息的地方呢?
Thus says Jehovah, Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What manner of house will ye build to me, and what place shall be my rest?
2 耶和華說:這一切都是我手所造的, 所以就都有了。 但我所看顧的, 就是虛心痛悔、 因我話而戰兢的人。
For all these things my hand has made, and all these things came to be, says Jehovah. But to this man I will look, even to him who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at my word.
3 假冒為善的宰牛,好像殺人, 獻羊羔,好像打折狗項, 獻供物,好像獻豬血, 燒乳香,好像稱頌偶像。 這等人揀選自己的道路, 心裏喜悅行可憎惡的事。
He who slaughters an ox is as he who kills a man. He who sacrifices a lamb, as he who breaks a dog's neck. He who offers an oblation, as swine's blood. He who burns frankincense, as he who blesses an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations.
4 我也必揀選迷惑他們的事, 使他們所懼怕的臨到他們; 因為我呼喚,無人答應; 我說話,他們不聽從; 反倒行我眼中看為惡的, 揀選我所不喜悅的。
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them. Because when I called, none answered. When I spoke, they did not hear. But they did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I did not delight.
5 你們因耶和華言語戰兢的人當聽他的話: 你們的弟兄-就是恨惡你們, 因我名趕出你們的,曾說: 願耶和華得榮耀, 使我們得見你們的喜樂; 但蒙羞的究竟是他們!
Hear the word of Jehovah, ye who tremble at his word: Your brothers who hate you, who cast you out for my name's sake, have said, Let Jehovah be glorified, that we may see your joy. But it is those who shall be put to shame.
6 有喧嘩的聲音出自城中! 有聲音出於殿中! 是耶和華向仇敵施行報應的聲音!
A voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of Jehovah who renders recompense to his enemies.
7 錫安未曾劬勞就生產, 未覺疼痛就生出男孩。
Before she travailed, she brought forth. Before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child.
8 國豈能一日而生? 民豈能一時而產? 因為錫安一劬勞便生下兒女, 這樣的事誰曾聽見? 誰曾看見呢?
Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day? Shall a nation be brought forth at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her sons.
9 耶和華說:我既使她臨產, 豈不使她生產呢? 你的上帝說:我既使她生產, 豈能使她閉胎不生呢?
Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? says Jehovah. Shall I who cause to bring forth shut the womb? says thy God.
10 你們愛慕耶路撒冷的 都要與她一同歡喜快樂; 你們為她悲哀的 都要與她一同樂上加樂;
Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad for her, all ye who love her. Rejoice for joy with her, all ye who mourn over her,
11 使你們在她安慰的懷中吃奶得飽, 使他們得她豐盛的榮耀, 猶如擠奶,滿心喜樂。
that ye may nurse and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations, that ye may get milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
12 耶和華如此說: 我要使平安延及她,好像江河, 使列國的榮耀延及她,如同漲溢的河。 你們要從中享受; 你們必蒙抱在肋旁,搖弄在膝上。
For thus says Jehovah, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream. And ye shall nurse thereof. Ye shall be borne upon the side, and shall be dandled upon the knees.
13 母親怎樣安慰兒子,我就照樣安慰你們; 你們也必因耶路撒冷得安慰。
As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you, and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 你們看見,就心中快樂; 你們的骨頭必得滋潤像嫩草一樣; 而且耶和華的手向他僕人所行的必被人知道; 他也要向仇敵發惱恨。
And ye shall see, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like the tender grass. And the hand of Jehovah shall be known toward his servants, and he will have indignation against his enemies.
15 看哪,耶和華必在火中降臨; 他的車輦像旋風, 以烈怒施行報應, 以火焰施行責罰;
For, behold, Jehovah will come with fire, and his chariots shall be like the whirlwind, to render his anger with fierceness, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 因為耶和華在一切有血氣的人身上, 必以火與刀施行審判; 被耶和華所殺的必多。
For by fire Jehovah will execute judgment, and by his sword, upon all flesh, and the slain of Jehovah shall be many.
17 「那些分別為聖、潔淨自己的,進入園內跟在其中一個人的後頭,吃豬肉和倉鼠並可憎之物,他們必一同滅絕;這是耶和華說的。
Those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves to go to the gardens, behind one in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, they shall come to an end together, says Jehovah.
18 「我知道他們的行為和他們的意念。時候將到,我必將萬民萬族聚來,看見我的榮耀,
For I know their works and their thoughts. The time comes, that I will gather all nations and tongues, and they shall come, and shall see my glory.
19 我要顯神蹟在他們中間。逃脫的,我要差到列國去,就是到他施、普勒、拉弓的路德和土巴、雅完,並素來沒有聽見我名聲、沒有看見我榮耀遼遠的海島;他們必將我的榮耀傳揚在列國中。
And I will set a sign among them, and I will send such as escape of them to the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal and Javan, to the isles afar off, who have not heard my fame, nor have seen my glory, and they shall declare my glory among the nations.
20 他們必將你們的弟兄從列國中送回,使他們或騎馬,或坐車,坐轎,騎騾子,騎獨峰駝,到我的聖山耶路撒冷,作為供物獻給耶和華,好像以色列人用潔淨的器皿盛供物奉到耶和華的殿中;這是耶和華說的。
And they shall bring all your brothers out of all the nations for an oblation to Jehovah, upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon dromedaries, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says Jehovah, as the sons of Israel bring their oblation in a clean vessel into the house of Jehovah.
21 耶和華說:我也必從他們中間取人為祭司,為利未人。」
And of them also I will take for priests and for Levites, says Jehovah.
22 耶和華說:我所要造的新天新地, 怎樣在我面前長存; 你們的後裔和你們的名字也必照樣長存。
For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, says Jehovah, so shall your seed and your name remain.
23 每逢月朔、安息日, 凡有血氣的必來在我面前下拜。 這是耶和華說的。
And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, all flesh shall come to worship before me, says Jehovah.
24 他們必出去觀看那些違背我人的屍首; 因為他們的蟲是不死的; 他們的火是不滅的; 凡有血氣的都必憎惡他們。
And they shall go forth, and look upon the dead bodies of the men who have transgressed against me. For their worm shall not die, nor shall their fire be quenched, and they shall be an abhorring to all flesh.
