Isaiah

Chapter 1

1 The vision2377 of Isaiah3470 the son1121 of Amoz,531 which834 he saw2372 concerning5921 Judah3063 and Jerusalem3389 in the days3117 of Uzziah,5818 Jotham,3147 Ahaz,271 and Hezekiah,3169 kings4428 of Judah.3063

2 Hear,8085 O heavens,8064 and give ear,238 O earth:776 for3588 the LORD3068 hath spoken,1696 I have nourished1431 and brought up7311 children,1121 and they1992 have rebelled6586 against me.

3 The ox7794 knoweth3045 his owner,7069 and the ass2543 his master's1167 crib:18 but Israel3478 doth not3808 know,3045 my people5971 doth not3808 consider.995

4 Ah1945 sinful2398 nation,1471 a people5971 laden3515 with iniquity,5771 a seed2233 of evildoers,7489 children1121 that are corrupters:7843 they have forsaken5800 853 the LORD,3068 they have provoked5006 853 the Holy One6918 of Israel3478 unto anger, they are gone away2114 backward.268

5 Why5921 4100 should ye be stricken5221 any more?5750 ye will revolt5627 more and more:3254 the whole3605 head7218 is sick,2483 and the whole3605 heart3824 faint.1742

6 From the sole4480 3709 of the foot7272 even unto5704 the head7218 there is no369 soundness4974 in it; but wounds,6482 and bruises,2250 and putrefying2961 sores:4347 they have not3808 been closed,2115 neither3808 bound up,2280 neither3808 mollified7401 with ointment.8081

7 Your country776 is desolate,8077 your cities5892 are burned8313 with fire:784 your land,127 strangers2114 devour398 it in your presence,5048 and it is desolate,8077 as overthrown4114 by strangers.2114

8 And the daughter1323 of Zion6726 is left3498 as a cottage5521 in a vineyard,3754 as a lodge4412 in a garden of cucumbers,4750 as a besieged5341 city.5892

9 Except3884 the LORD3068 of hosts6635 had left3498 unto us a very small4592 remnant,8300 we should have been1961 as Sodom,5467 and we should have been like1819 unto Gomorrah.6017

10 Hear8085 the word1697 of the LORD,3068 ye rulers7101 of Sodom;5467 give ear238 unto the law8451 of our God,430 ye people5971 of Gomorrah.6017

11 To what4100 purpose is the multitude7230 of your sacrifices2077 unto me? saith559 the LORD:3068 I am full7646 of the burnt offerings5930 of rams,352 and the fat2459 of fed beasts;4806 and I delight2654 not3808 in the blood1818 of bullocks,6499 or of lambs,3532 or of he goats.6260

12 When3588 ye come935 to appear7200 before6440 me, who4310 hath required1245 this2063 at your hand,4480 3027 to tread7429 my courts?2691

13 Bring935 no3808 more3254 vain7723 oblations;4503 incense7004 is an abomination8441 unto me; the new moons2320 and sabbaths,7676 the calling7121 of assemblies,4744 I cannot3808 3201 away with; it is iniquity,205 even the solemn meeting.6116

14 Your new moons2320 and your appointed feasts4150 my soul5315 hateth:8130 they are1961 a trouble2960 unto me;5921 I am weary3811 to bear5375 them.

15 And when ye spread forth6566 your hands,3709 I will hide5956 mine eyes5869 from4480 you: yea,1571 when3588 ye make many7235 prayers,8605 I will not369 hear:8085 your hands3027 are full4390 of blood.1818

16 Wash7364 you, make you clean;2135 put away5493 the evil7455 of your doings4611 from before4480 5048 mine eyes;5869 cease2308 to do evil;7489

17 Learn3925 to do well;3190 seek1875 judgment,4941 relieve833 the oppressed,2541 judge8199 the fatherless,3490 plead7378 for the widow.490

18 Come1980 now,4994 and let us reason together,3198 saith559 the LORD:3068 though518 your sins2399 be1961 as scarlet,8144 they shall be as white3835 as snow;7950 though518 they be red119 like crimson,8438 they shall be1961 as wool.6785

19 If518 ye be willing14 and obedient,8085 ye shall eat398 the good2898 of the land: 776

20 But if518 ye refuse3985 and rebel,4784 ye shall be devoured398 with the sword:2719 for3588 the mouth6310 of the LORD3068 hath spoken1696 it.

21 How349 is the faithful539 city7151 become1961 a harlot!2181 it was full4392 of judgment;4941 righteousness6664 lodged3885 in it; but now6258 murderers.7523

22 Thy silver3701 is become1961 dross,5509 thy wine5435 mixed4107 with water: 4325

23 Thy princes8269 are rebellious,5637 and companions2270 of thieves:1590 every one3605 loveth157 gifts,7810 and followeth after7291 rewards:8021 they judge8199 not3808 the fatherless,3490 neither3808 doth the cause7379 of the widow490 come935 unto413 them.

24 Therefore3651 saith5002 the Lord,113 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 the mighty One46 of Israel,3478 Ah,1945 I will ease5162 me of mine adversaries,4480 6862 and avenge5358 me of mine enemies:4480 341

25 And I will turn7725 my hand3027 upon5921 thee, and purely1252 purge away6884 thy dross,5509 and take away5493 all3605 thy tin: 913

26 And I will restore7725 thy judges8199 as at the first,7223 and thy counselors3289 as at the beginning:8462 afterward310 3651 thou shalt be called,7121 The city5892 of righteousness,6664 the faithful539 city.7151

27 Zion6726 shall be redeemed6299 with judgment,4941 and her converts7725 with righteousness.6666

28 And the destruction7667 of the transgressors6586 and of the sinners2400 shall be together,3162 and they that forsake5800 the LORD3068 shall be consumed.3615

29 For3588 they shall be ashamed954 of the oaks4480 352 which834 ye have desired,2530 and ye shall be confounded2659 for the gardens4480 1593 that834 ye have chosen.977

30 For3588 ye shall be1961 as an oak424 whose leaf5929 fadeth,5034 and as a garden1593 that834 hath no369 water.4325

31 And the strong2634 shall be1961 as tow,5296 and the maker6467 of it as a spark,5213 and they shall both8147 burn1197 together,3162 and none369 shall quench3518 them.

以賽亞書

第1章

1 當烏西雅、約坦、亞哈斯、希西家作猶大王的時候,亞摩斯的兒子以賽亞得異象[vision],論到猶大和耶路撒冷。

2 諸天[heavens]哪,要聽;地啊,側耳而聽。因為耶和華說:我養育兒女,將他們養大,他們竟悖逆我。

3 牛認識主人,驢認識主人的槽;以色列卻不認識,我的民卻不留意。

4 [Ah]。犯罪的國民,擔著罪孽的百姓,行惡的種類,敗壞的兒女;他們離棄了[forsaken]耶和華,惹動[provoked]以色列的聖者怒氣發作[unto anger]往後退去[gone away backward]

5 你們為甚麼還要受責打[Why should ye be stricken any more]你們還要屢次悖逆[ye will revolt more and more];你們已經滿頭疼痛,全心發昏。

6 從腳掌到頭頂,沒有一處完全的;盡是傷口、青腫,與新打的傷痕。都沒有收口,沒有包紮[bindeth up],也沒有用膏滋潤。

7 你們的地土已經荒涼,你們的城邑被火焚燬;你們的[land]在你們面前[presence]為外邦人所侵吞,既被外邦人傾覆就成為荒涼。

8 僅存女子錫安[daughter of Zion],好像葡萄園[in]的草棚,瓜田[in]的茅屋,被圍困的城邑。

9 若不是大軍之耶和華給我們稍留餘種,我們早已像所多瑪、蛾摩拉的樣子了。

10 你們這所多瑪的官長啊,要聽耶和華的話;你們這蛾摩拉的百姓啊,要側耳聽我們神的訓誨。

11 耶和華說:你們所獻的許多祭物與我何益呢?公綿羊的燔祭和肥畜的脂油,我已經夠了;公牛的血,綿羊羔[lambs]的血,公山羊的血,我都不喜悅。

12 你們來朝見我,誰向你們討這些,使你們踐踏我的院宇呢?

13 不要再[no more]獻虛浮的供物;香品是我所憎惡的;月朔[new moons]安息日[sabbaths],並宣召的大會,也是我不能容忍的[I cannot away with]守嚴肅會也是罪孽[it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting]

14 你們的月朔和節期,我心裏恨惡。我都以為麻煩;我擔當它們[them],便不耐煩。

15 你們舉手禱告,我必遮眼不看;就是你們多多地祈禱,我也不聽;你們的手都滿了殺人的血。

16 你們要洗濯、自潔;從我眼前除掉你們的惡行;要止住作惡;

17 學習行善;尋求公平,解救受欺壓的,給無父的斷事[judge the fatherless],為寡婦辨屈。

18 耶和華說:你們來,我們彼此辯論。你們的罪雖像朱紅[scarlet],必變[as]雪白;雖紅如緋紅[crimson],必白如羊毛。

19 你們若甘心聽從,必吃地上的美物;

20 你們[ye]若不聽從,反倒叛逆,必被刀劍吞滅;這是耶和華親口說的。

21 忠信的城何竟[How is]變為妓女。這城[it]從前充滿了公平;公義居在其中;現今卻有兇手居住。

22 你的銀子變為渣滓,你的酒用水參混[mixed]

23 你的官長居心叛逆,與盜賊作伴;各都喜愛賄賂,追求贓私;他們不為無父的斷事[judge not the fatherless],寡婦的案件也不得呈到他們面前。

24 因此,主─大軍之耶和華、以色列的大能者說:哎,我要向我的對頭雪恨,向我的敵人報仇。

25 我必反手加在你身上,煉淨[purely purge away]你的渣滓,除[all]你的雜質;

26 我也必復還你的審判官,像起初一樣,復還你的謀士,像起先一般;然後,你必稱為公義之城,忠信之邑。

27 錫安必因公平得蒙救贖,其中歸正的人必因公義得蒙救贖。

28 犯法的[transgressors]和犯罪的必一同敗亡,離棄耶和華的必致消滅。

29 那等人必因你們所喜愛的橡樹蒙羞[ashamed],你們必因所選擇的園子抱愧[confounded]

30 因為,你們必如葉子凋殘[fadeth]的橡樹,好像無水澆灌的園子。

31 有權勢的必如麻屑[tow],他的工作好像火花[spark],都要一同焚燬,無人撲滅。

3 The ox7794 knoweth3045 his owner,7069 and the ass2543 his master's1167 crib:18 but Israel3478 doth not3808 know,3045 my people5971 doth not3808 consider.995

3 牛認識主人,驢認識主人的槽;以色列卻不認識,我的民卻不留意。

4 Ah1945 sinful2398 nation,1471 a people5971 laden3515 with iniquity,5771 a seed2233 of evildoers,7489 children1121 that are corrupters:7843 they have forsaken5800 853 the LORD,3068 they have provoked5006 853 the Holy One6918 of Israel3478 unto anger, they are gone away2114 backward.268

4 [Ah]。犯罪的國民,擔著罪孽的百姓,行惡的種類,敗壞的兒女;他們離棄了[forsaken]耶和華,惹動[provoked]以色列的聖者怒氣發作[unto anger]往後退去[gone away backward]

5 Why5921 4100 should ye be stricken5221 any more?5750 ye will revolt5627 more and more:3254 the whole3605 head7218 is sick,2483 and the whole3605 heart3824 faint.1742

5 你們為甚麼還要受責打[Why should ye be stricken any more]你們還要屢次悖逆[ye will revolt more and more];你們已經滿頭疼痛,全心發昏。

6 From the sole4480 3709 of the foot7272 even unto5704 the head7218 there is no369 soundness4974 in it; but wounds,6482 and bruises,2250 and putrefying2961 sores:4347 they have not3808 been closed,2115 neither3808 bound up,2280 neither3808 mollified7401 with ointment.8081

6 從腳掌到頭頂,沒有一處完全的;盡是傷口、青腫,與新打的傷痕。都沒有收口,沒有包紮[bindeth up],也沒有用膏滋潤。

7 Your country776 is desolate,8077 your cities5892 are burned8313 with fire:784 your land,127 strangers2114 devour398 it in your presence,5048 and it is desolate,8077 as overthrown4114 by strangers.2114

7 你們的地土已經荒涼,你們的城邑被火焚燬;你們的[land]在你們面前[presence]為外邦人所侵吞,既被外邦人傾覆就成為荒涼。

8 And the daughter1323 of Zion6726 is left3498 as a cottage5521 in a vineyard,3754 as a lodge4412 in a garden of cucumbers,4750 as a besieged5341 city.5892

8 僅存女子錫安[daughter of Zion],好像葡萄園[in]的草棚,瓜田[in]的茅屋,被圍困的城邑。

9 Except3884 the LORD3068 of hosts6635 had left3498 unto us a very small4592 remnant,8300 we should have been1961 as Sodom,5467 and we should have been like1819 unto Gomorrah.6017

9 若不是大軍之耶和華給我們稍留餘種,我們早已像所多瑪、蛾摩拉的樣子了。

10 Hear8085 the word1697 of the LORD,3068 ye rulers7101 of Sodom;5467 give ear238 unto the law8451 of our God,430 ye people5971 of Gomorrah.6017

10 你們這所多瑪的官長啊,要聽耶和華的話;你們這蛾摩拉的百姓啊,要側耳聽我們神的訓誨。

11 To what4100 purpose is the multitude7230 of your sacrifices2077 unto me? saith559 the LORD:3068 I am full7646 of the burnt offerings5930 of rams,352 and the fat2459 of fed beasts;4806 and I delight2654 not3808 in the blood1818 of bullocks,6499 or of lambs,3532 or of he goats.6260

11 耶和華說:你們所獻的許多祭物與我何益呢?公綿羊的燔祭和肥畜的脂油,我已經夠了;公牛的血,綿羊羔[lambs]的血,公山羊的血,我都不喜悅。

12 When3588 ye come935 to appear7200 before6440 me, who4310 hath required1245 this2063 at your hand,4480 3027 to tread7429 my courts?2691

12 你們來朝見我,誰向你們討這些,使你們踐踏我的院宇呢?

13 Bring935 no3808 more3254 vain7723 oblations;4503 incense7004 is an abomination8441 unto me; the new moons2320 and sabbaths,7676 the calling7121 of assemblies,4744 I cannot3808 3201 away with; it is iniquity,205 even the solemn meeting.6116

13 不要再[no more]獻虛浮的供物;香品是我所憎惡的;月朔[new moons]安息日[sabbaths],並宣召的大會,也是我不能容忍的[I cannot away with]守嚴肅會也是罪孽[it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting]

14 Your new moons2320 and your appointed feasts4150 my soul5315 hateth:8130 they are1961 a trouble2960 unto me;5921 I am weary3811 to bear5375 them.

14 你們的月朔和節期,我心裏恨惡。我都以為麻煩;我擔當它們[them],便不耐煩。

15 And when ye spread forth6566 your hands,3709 I will hide5956 mine eyes5869 from4480 you: yea,1571 when3588 ye make many7235 prayers,8605 I will not369 hear:8085 your hands3027 are full4390 of blood.1818

15 你們舉手禱告,我必遮眼不看;就是你們多多地祈禱,我也不聽;你們的手都滿了殺人的血。

16 Wash7364 you, make you clean;2135 put away5493 the evil7455 of your doings4611 from before4480 5048 mine eyes;5869 cease2308 to do evil;7489

16 你們要洗濯、自潔;從我眼前除掉你們的惡行;要止住作惡;

17 Learn3925 to do well;3190 seek1875 judgment,4941 relieve833 the oppressed,2541 judge8199 the fatherless,3490 plead7378 for the widow.490

17 學習行善;尋求公平,解救受欺壓的,給無父的斷事[judge the fatherless],為寡婦辨屈。

18 Come1980 now,4994 and let us reason together,3198 saith559 the LORD:3068 though518 your sins2399 be1961 as scarlet,8144 they shall be as white3835 as snow;7950 though518 they be red119 like crimson,8438 they shall be1961 as wool.6785

18 耶和華說:你們來,我們彼此辯論。你們的罪雖像朱紅[scarlet],必變[as]雪白;雖紅如緋紅[crimson],必白如羊毛。

19 If518 ye be willing14 and obedient,8085 ye shall eat398 the good2898 of the land: 776

19 你們若甘心聽從,必吃地上的美物;

20 But if518 ye refuse3985 and rebel,4784 ye shall be devoured398 with the sword:2719 for3588 the mouth6310 of the LORD3068 hath spoken1696 it.

20 你們[ye]若不聽從,反倒叛逆,必被刀劍吞滅;這是耶和華親口說的。

21 How349 is the faithful539 city7151 become1961 a harlot!2181 it was full4392 of judgment;4941 righteousness6664 lodged3885 in it; but now6258 murderers.7523

21 忠信的城何竟[How is]變為妓女。這城[it]從前充滿了公平;公義居在其中;現今卻有兇手居住。

22 Thy silver3701 is become1961 dross,5509 thy wine5435 mixed4107 with water: 4325

22 你的銀子變為渣滓,你的酒用水參混[mixed]

23 Thy princes8269 are rebellious,5637 and companions2270 of thieves:1590 every one3605 loveth157 gifts,7810 and followeth after7291 rewards:8021 they judge8199 not3808 the fatherless,3490 neither3808 doth the cause7379 of the widow490 come935 unto413 them.

23 你的官長居心叛逆,與盜賊作伴;各都喜愛賄賂,追求贓私;他們不為無父的斷事[judge not the fatherless],寡婦的案件也不得呈到他們面前。

24 Therefore3651 saith5002 the Lord,113 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 the mighty One46 of Israel,3478 Ah,1945 I will ease5162 me of mine adversaries,4480 6862 and avenge5358 me of mine enemies:4480 341

24 因此,主─大軍之耶和華、以色列的大能者說:哎,我要向我的對頭雪恨,向我的敵人報仇。

25 And I will turn7725 my hand3027 upon5921 thee, and purely1252 purge away6884 thy dross,5509 and take away5493 all3605 thy tin: 913

25 我必反手加在你身上,煉淨[purely purge away]你的渣滓,除[all]你的雜質;

26 And I will restore7725 thy judges8199 as at the first,7223 and thy counselors3289 as at the beginning:8462 afterward310 3651 thou shalt be called,7121 The city5892 of righteousness,6664 the faithful539 city.7151

26 我也必復還你的審判官,像起初一樣,復還你的謀士,像起先一般;然後,你必稱為公義之城,忠信之邑。

27 Zion6726 shall be redeemed6299 with judgment,4941 and her converts7725 with righteousness.6666

27 錫安必因公平得蒙救贖,其中歸正的人必因公義得蒙救贖。

28 And the destruction7667 of the transgressors6586 and of the sinners2400 shall be together,3162 and they that forsake5800 the LORD3068 shall be consumed.3615

28 犯法的[transgressors]和犯罪的必一同敗亡,離棄耶和華的必致消滅。

29 For3588 they shall be ashamed954 of the oaks4480 352 which834 ye have desired,2530 and ye shall be confounded2659 for the gardens4480 1593 that834 ye have chosen.977

29 那等人必因你們所喜愛的橡樹蒙羞[ashamed],你們必因所選擇的園子抱愧[confounded]

30 For3588 ye shall be1961 as an oak424 whose leaf5929 fadeth,5034 and as a garden1593 that834 hath no369 water.4325

30 因為,你們必如葉子凋殘[fadeth]的橡樹,好像無水澆灌的園子。

31 And the strong2634 shall be1961 as tow,5296 and the maker6467 of it as a spark,5213 and they shall both8147 burn1197 together,3162 and none369 shall quench3518 them.

31 有權勢的必如麻屑[tow],他的工作好像火花[spark],都要一同焚燬,無人撲滅。
