Isaiah 62

1 For Zion’s sake, will I not hold my peace, And for Jerusalem’s sake, will I not rest, —Until her righteousness, go forth as brightness, And her salvation, as a torch that is lighted.

我因錫安必不靜默， 為耶路撒冷必不息聲， 直到他的公義如光輝發出， 他的救恩如明燈發亮。

2 So shall nations see thy righteousness, And all kings, thy glory; And thou shalt be called by a new name, which, the mouth of Yahweh, will name.

列國必見你的公義； 列王必見你的榮耀。 你必得新名的稱呼， 是耶和華親口所起的。

3 Then shalt thou become—A crown of adorning, in the hand of Yahweh, and A royal diadem in the hand of thy God.

你在耶和華的手中要作為華冠， 在你上帝的掌上必作為冕旒。

4 Thou shalt he termed no longer—Forsaken Nor shall thy land be termed any longer A desolation, But, thou, shalt be called Hephzibah ["My delight is in her"], And, thy land, Beulah ["married"], —For Yahweh hath found delight in thee, And thy land, shall be married.

你必不再稱為「撇棄的」； 你的地也不再稱為「荒涼的」。 你卻要稱為「我所喜悅的」； 你的地也必稱為「有夫之婦」。 因為耶和華喜悅你， 你的地也必歸他。

5 For a young man marrieth, a virgin, Thy sons marry thee! And the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride—Thy God, rejoiceth over thee.

少年人怎樣娶處女， 你的眾民也要照樣娶你； 新郎怎樣喜悅新婦， 你的上帝也要照樣喜悅你。

6 Upon thy walls O Jerusalem, have I appointed watchmen, All the day and all the night through, let them not hold their peace, —O ye that put Yahweh in mind, Do not take rest to yourselves,

耶路撒冷啊， 我在你城上設立守望的， 他們晝夜必不靜默。 呼籲耶和華的，你們不要歇息，

7 Neither give rest, unto him, Until he establish and until he set forth Jerusalem as a praise in the earth!

也不要使他歇息， 直等他建立耶路撒冷， 使耶路撒冷在地上成為可讚美的。

8 Sworn hath Yahweh—By his own right hand, and By his own strong arm, —Surely I will give thy corn no more, as food to thine enemies, Nor shall the sons of the foreigner drink thy new wine, for which thou hast toiled;

耶和華指着自己的右手和大能的膀臂起誓說： 我必不再將你的五穀給你仇敵作食物； 外邦人也不再喝你勞碌得來的新酒。

9 But they who have garnered it, shall eat it, and praise Yahweh, —And they who have gathered in its clusters, shall drink it in my holy courts.

惟有那收割的要吃，並讚美耶和華； 那聚斂的要在我聖所的院內喝。

10 Pass ye through pass ye through the gates, Prepare ye the way of the people, —Cast ye up, cast ye up the highway, Clear it of stones, Lift ye high a standard unto the peoples.

你們當從門經過經過， 預備百姓的路； 修築修築大道， 撿去石頭， 為萬民豎立大旗，

11 Lo! Yahweh, hath sent a message unto the end of the earth: Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Lo! thy Salvation, is coming, —Lo! his reward, is with him, And, his recompense, before him:

看哪，耶和華曾宣告到地極， 對錫安的居民說： 你的拯救者來到。 他的賞賜在他那裏； 他的報應在他面前。

12 So shall men call them—The holy people The redeemed of Yahweh, —And, thou, shalt be called—Sought out, A city not forsaken,

人必稱他們為「聖民」，為「耶和華的贖民」； 你也必稱為「被眷顧、不撇棄的城」。
