以賽亞書
第44章
|
|
1 Yet now6258 hear,8085 O Jacob3290 my servant;5650 and Israel,3478 whom I have chosen: 977
|
1 我的僕人雅各，我所揀選的以色列啊，現在你當聽。
|
|
2 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD3068 that made6213 thee, and formed3335 thee from the womb,4480 990 which will help5826 thee; Fear3372 not,408 O Jacob,3290 my servant;5650 and thou, Jesurun,3484 whom I have chosen.977
|
2 造作你，又自你成胎造就你［formed thee from the womb］，要［will］幫助你的耶和華如此說：我的僕人雅各，我所揀選的耶書崙哪，不要害怕。
|
|
3 For3588 I will pour3332 water4325 upon5921 him that is thirsty,6771 and floods5140 upon5921 the dry ground:3004 I will pour3332 my spirit7307 upon5921 thy seed,2233 and my blessing1293 upon5921 thine offspring: 6631
|
3 因為我要將水澆灌口渴的人，將河澆灌乾旱之地；我要將我的靈澆灌你的後裔，將我的福澆灌你的子孫；
|
|
4 And they shall spring up6779 as among996 the grass,2682 as willows6155 by5921 the water4325 courses.2988
|
4 他們要生長如［spring up as］在草中，像溪水旁的柳樹。
|
|
5 One2088 shall say,559 I589 am the LORD's;3068 and another2088 shall call7121 himself by the name8034 of Jacob;3290 and another2088 shall subscribe3789 with his hand3027 unto the LORD,3068 and surname3655 himself by the name8034 of Israel.3478
|
5 這個要說：我是屬耶和華的；那個要以雅各的名自稱；又一個要親手寫［subscribe with his hand］：歸耶和華的，並自稱為以色列。
|
|
6 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD3068 the King4428 of Israel,3478 and his redeemer1350 the LORD3068 of hosts;6635 I589 am the first,7223 and I589 am the last;314 and beside4480 1107 me there is no369 God.430
|
6 耶和華─以色列的君，以色列的救贖主─大軍之耶和華如此說：我是首先的，我是末後的；除我以外再沒有真神。
|
|
7 And who,4310 as I, shall call,7121 and shall declare5046 it, and set it in order6186 for me, since I appointed4480 7760 the ancient5769 people?5971 and the things that are coming,857 and shall come,935 let them show5046 unto them.
|
7 自從我設立古時的民，誰能像我宣告，並且指明，又為我［me］陳說呢？讓他們［them］將未來的事和必成的事指示他們［slew unto them］。
|
|
8 Fear6342 ye not,408 neither408 be afraid:7297 have not3808 I told8085 thee from that time,4480 227 and have declared5046 it? ye859 are even my witnesses.5707 Is there3426 a God433 beside4480 1107 me? yea, there is no369 God;6697 I know3045 not1077 any.
|
8 你們不要恐懼，也不要害怕。我豈不是從那時就告訴你，說明了［told thee from that time, and have declared it］嗎？你們就是［ye are even］我的見證。除我以外，豈真有［Is there any］神嗎？誠然沒有神［God］；我不知道一個。
|
|
9 They that make3335 a graven image6459 are all3605 of them vanity;8414 and their delectable things2530 shall not1077 profit;3276 and they1992 are their own witnesses;5707 they see7200 not,1077 nor1077 know;3045 that4616 they may be ashamed.954
|
9 製造雕刻之像［image］的盡都虛空；他們所喜悅的都無益處；他們是自己的見證［they are their own witnesses］；它們［they］無所看見，無所知曉；好叫他們［that they may］羞愧。
|
|
10 Who4310 hath formed3335 a god,410 or molten5258 a graven image6459 that is profitable3276 for nothing?1115
|
10 誰製造神像，鑄造無益的雕刻之像［graven image］？
|
|
11 Behold,2005 all3605 his fellows2270 shall be ashamed:954 and the workmen,2796 they1992 are of men:4480 120 let them all3605 be gathered together,6908 let them stand up;5975 yet they shall fear,6342 and they shall be ashamed954 together.3162
|
11 看哪，他的同伴都必羞愧。工匠也不過是人。任他們聚會，任他們站立；都仍［yet］必懼怕，一同羞愧。
|
|
12 The blacksmith2796 1270 with the tongs4621 both worketh6466 in the coals,6352 and fashioneth3335 it with hammers,4717 and worketh6466 it with the strength3581 of his arms:2220 yea,1571 he is hungry,7456 and his strength3581 faileth:369 he drinketh8354 no3808 water,4325 and is faint.3286
|
12 鐵匠持鉗子在火炭中作工［The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals］，又［both］用鎚打鐵器，用他兩臂的力［strength of his arms］錘成；他飢餓而無力；不喝水而發倦。
|
|
13 The carpenter2796 6086 stretcheth out5186 his rule;6957 he marketh it out8388 with a line;8279 he fitteth6213 it with planes,4741 and he marketh it out8388 with the compass,4230 and maketh6213 it after the figure8403 of a man,376 according to the beauty8597 of a man;120 that it may remain3427 in the house.1004
|
13 木匠鋪出規制［stretcheth out his rule］；用線［line］劃出樣子；用鉋子鉋成合式［fitteth］，用圓尺劃了模樣，仿照人的體態，作成人形；好住在房屋中。
|
|
14 He heweth him down3772 cedars,730 and taketh3947 the cypress8645 and the oak,437 which he strengtheneth553 for himself among the trees6086 of the forest:3293 he planteth5193 an ash,766 and the rain1653 doth nourish1431 it.
|
14 他砍伐香柏樹，又取柏樹［cypress］和橡樹，是他在林中之樹為自己堅固的［which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest］；他栽種蠟樹［ash］，得雨滋養［nourish］。
|
|
15 Then shall it be1961 for a man120 to burn:1197 for he will take3947 thereof,4480 and warm2552 himself; yea,637 he kindleth5400 it, and baketh644 bread;3899 yea,637 he maketh6466 a god,410 and worshipeth7812 it; he maketh6213 it a graven image,6459 and falleth down5456 thereto.
|
15 這樹，人要［shall］用以燒火。因［for］他要［will］取些烤火自暖［warm himself］；又燒著烤餅；他作一神像敬拜［he maketh a god, and worshippeth］；作雕刻的像［image］向它叩拜。
|
|
16 He burneth8313 part2677 thereof in1119 the fire;784 with5921 part2677 thereof he eateth398 flesh;1320 he roasteth6740 roast,6748 and is satisfied:7646 yea,637 he warmeth2552 himself, and saith,559 Aha,1889 I am warm,2552 I have seen7200 the fire: 217
|
16 他把一分燒在火中；把一分烤肉吃飽。他烤火自暖［he warmeth himself］，說：「啊哈，我暖和了，我見火了。」
|
|
17 And the residue7611 thereof he maketh6213 a god,410 even his graven image:6459 he falleth down5456 unto it, and worshipeth7812 it, and prayeth6419 unto413 it, and saith,559 Deliver5337 me; for3588 thou859 art my god.410
|
17 他用剩下的作了一神，就是雕刻的像［image］。他向這偶像俯伏敬拜［worshippeth］，禱告它說：「求你拯救我；因你是我的神。」
|
|
18 They have not3808 known3045 nor3808 understood:995 for3588 he hath shut2902 their eyes,5869 that they cannot see;4480 7200 and their hearts,3820 that they cannot understand.4480 7919
|
18 他們不曉得［known］，也不明白［understood］。因為耶和華閉住他們的眼，不能看見；塞住他們的心，不能明白。
|
|
19 And none3808 considereth7725 in413 his heart,3820 neither3808 is there knowledge1847 nor3808 understanding8394 to say,559 I have burned8313 part2677 of it in1119 the fire;784 yea,637 also I have baked644 bread3899 upon5921 the coals1513 thereof; I have roasted6740 flesh,1320 and eaten398 it: and shall I make6213 the residue3499 thereof an abomination?8441 shall I fall down5456 to the stock944 of a tree?6086
|
19 誰心裏也不思想［considereth］，也沒有知識，沒有聰明，能說：「我曾拿一分在火中燒了；也［also］在炭火上烤過餅；我也烤過肉吃。這剩下的，我豈要作可憎的物嗎？我豈可向樹樁［stock of a tree］叩拜呢？」
|
|
20 He feedeth7462 on ashes:665 a deceived2048 heart3820 hath turned him aside,5186 that he cannot3808 deliver5337 853 his soul,5315 nor3808 say,559 Is there not3808 a lie8267 in my right hand?3225
|
20 他以灰為食；心被迷惑［deceived］，使他偏邪，以致［that］他不能自救，也不能說：「我右手中豈不是有虛謊嗎？」
|
|
21 Remember2142 these,428 O Jacob3290 and Israel;3478 for3588 thou859 art my servant:5650 I have formed3335 thee; thou859 art my servant:5650 O Israel,3478 thou shalt not3808 be forgotten5382 of me.
|
21 雅各，以色列啊，你是我的僕人，要記念這些事。以色列啊，你是我的僕人，我造就你必不忘記你。
|
|
22 I have blotted out,4229 as a thick cloud,5645 thy transgressions,6588 and, as a cloud,6051 thy sins:2403 return7725 unto413 me; for3588 I have redeemed1350 thee.
|
22 我塗抹了你的過犯，像厚雲消散，又［and］塗抹了你的罪惡，如薄雲滅沒。你當歸向我；因我救贖了你。
|
|
23 Sing,7442 O ye heavens;8064 for3588 the LORD3068 hath done6213 it: shout,7321 ye lower parts8482 of the earth:776 break forth6476 into singing,7440 ye mountains,2022 O forest,3293 and every3605 tree6086 therein: for3588 the LORD3068 hath redeemed1350 Jacob,3290 and glorified himself6286 in Israel.3478
|
23 諸天哪，你們［ye］應當歌唱；因為耶和華作成這事。地的深處啊，你們［ye］應當歡呼。你們［ye］眾山應當發聲歌唱，樹林和其中所有的樹啊［O］，都當如此。因為耶和華救贖了雅各，並因［in］以色列榮耀了［glorified］自己。
|
|
24 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 thy redeemer,1350 and he that formed3335 thee from the womb,4480 990 I595 am the LORD3068 that maketh6213 all3605 things; that stretcheth forth5186 the heavens8064 alone;905 that spreadeth abroad7554 the earth776 by854 myself;
|
24 你的救贖主─自你成胎造就你［thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb］的耶和華如此說：我─耶和華是創造凡所有［all things］的；是獨自鋪張諸天、擴展大地的［that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself］；
|
|
25 That frustrateth6565 the tokens226 of the liars,907 and maketh diviners mad;1984 7080 that turneth7725 wise2450 men backward,268 and maketh their knowledge foolish;5528 1847
|
25 是那［That］使說假話的兆頭失效，使占卜的癲狂；使智慧人退後，使他們［their］的知識變為愚拙的［that］；
|
|
26 That confirmeth6965 the word1697 of his servant,5650 and performeth7999 the counsel6098 of his messengers;4397 that saith559 to Jerusalem,3389 Thou shalt be inhabited;3427 and to the cities5892 of Judah,3063 Ye shall be built,1129 and I will raise up6965 the decayed places2723 thereof:
|
26 是那［That］使我僕人的話語立定，我使者的謀算成就的［That］。是那［that］對［to］耶路撒冷說：「妳［thou］必有人居住」；又對［and to］猶大的城邑說：「妳們［you］必被建造，其中的荒場我也必興起」的［that］。
|
|
27 That saith559 to the deep,6683 Be dry,2717 and I will dry up3001 thy rivers: 5104
|
27 是那［That］對深淵說：「乾了吧［Be dry］，我也要使你的江河乾涸」的［That］。
|
|
28 That saith559 of Cyrus,3566 He is my shepherd,7462 and shall perform7999 all3605 my pleasure:2656 even saying559 to Jerusalem,3389 Thou shalt be built;1129 and to the temple,1964 Thy foundation shall be laid.3245
|
28 是那［That］論塞魯士說：「他是我的牧人，必成就我所喜悅的」。就是對耶路撒冷說［even saying to Jerusalem］：「你必被建造［Thou shalt be built］」、「你的根基必然立穩」的［Thy foundation shall be laid］。
