< Isaiah 52 >

1 Awake, awake, put on your strength, Zion; put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city, for there shall no more enter into you the uncircumcised and the unclean.
锡安哪,兴起!兴起! 披上你的能力! 圣城耶路撒冷啊,穿上你华美的衣服! 因为从今以后, 未受割礼、不洁净的必不再进入你中间。
2 Shake yourself from the dust. Arise, sit up, Jerusalem. Release yourself from the bonds of your neck, captive daughter of Zion.
耶路撒冷啊,要抖下尘土! 起来坐在位上! 锡安被掳的居民哪, 要解开你颈项的锁链!
3 For thus says the LORD, "You were sold for nothing; and you shall be redeemed without money."
耶和华如此说:“你们是无价被卖的,也必无银被赎。
4 For thus says the LORD, "My people went down at the first into Egypt to live there, and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
主耶和华如此说:起先我的百姓下到埃及,在那里寄居,又有亚述人无故欺压他们。
5 "Now therefore, what do I do here," says the LORD, "seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them mock," says the LORD. "Because of you, my name is continually all the day blasphemed among the nations.
耶和华说:我的百姓既是无价被掳去,如今我在这里做什么呢?耶和华说:辖制他们的人呼叫,我的名整天受亵渎。
6 Therefore my people shall know my name; in that day they will know that I am he who speaks; look, it is I."
所以,我的百姓必知道我的名;到那日他们必知道说这话的就是我。看哪,是我!”
7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of good things, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, "Your God reigns."
那报佳音,传平安, 报好信,传救恩的, 对锡安说:你的 神作王了! 这人的脚登山何等佳美!
8 The voice of your watchmen. They lift up the voice, together do they sing; for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD returns to Zion with compassion.
听啊,你守望之人的声音, 他们扬起声来,一同歌唱; 因为耶和华归回锡安的时候, 他们必亲眼看见。
9 Break forth into joy, sing together, you waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD has comforted his people, he has redeemed Jerusalem.
耶路撒冷的荒场啊, 要发起欢声,一同歌唱; 因为耶和华安慰了他的百姓, 救赎了耶路撒冷。
10 The LORD has made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and every part of the earth has seen the salvation of our God.
耶和华在万国眼前露出圣臂; 地极的人都看见我们 神的救恩了。
11 Depart, depart, go out from there, and touch no unclean thing. Go out from their midst, and be separate, you who bear the vessels of the LORD.
你们离开吧!离开吧! 从巴比伦出来。 不要沾不洁净的物; 要从其中出来。 你们扛抬耶和华器皿的人哪, 务要自洁。
12 For you shall not depart in haste, nor shall you leave in flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
你们出来必不致急忙, 也不致奔逃。 因为,耶和华必在你们前头行; 以色列的 神必作你们的后盾。
13 Look, my servant shall deal wisely, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.
我的仆人行事必有智慧, 必被高举上升, 且成为至高。
14 Just as many were astonished at you (his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men),
许多人因他惊奇; 他的面貌比别人憔悴; 他的形容比世人枯槁。
15 so shall he sprinkle many nations; kings shall shut their mouths at him. For that which was not told about him, they will see, and what they have not heard, they will understand.
这样,他必洗净许多国民; 君王要向他闭口。 因所未曾传与他们的,他们必看见; 未曾听见的,他们要明白。
