1:1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, the kings of Judah:
当乌西雅、约坦、亚哈斯、希西家作犹大王的时候,亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚所看见,关于犹大和耶路撒冷的异象:
1:2 Hear, O heavens, and hearken, O earth, For Jehovah has spoken: I have brought up children, and I have raised them; And yet they have rebelled against Me.
天哪,要听;地阿,要侧耳听;因为耶和华说,我养育儿女,将他们养大,他们竟背叛我。
1:3 The ox knows his owner, And the donkey, his master's manger; But Israel does not know, My people do not much consider.
牛认识主人,驴认识主人的槽;以色列却不认识,我的民却不留意。
1:4 Alas, sinful nation, A people heavy with iniquity, Seed of evildoers, Children acting corruptly! They have forsaken Jehovah; They have despised the Holy One of Israel; They have become estranged and have gone backward.
1:5 Where will you be stricken again? Will you continue your apostasy? The whole head has become sick, And the whole heart faint;
你们还有何处可受责打?你们还要继续背道么?你们已经满头疼痛,全心发昏;
1:6 From the sole of the foot even to the head, There is no soundness in it, Only bruises and blows And raw wounds-They have not been pressed out nor bound up Nor softened with oil.
从脚掌到头顶,没有一处完好;尽是伤口,青肿,与新打的伤痕;都没有收口,没有缠裹,也没有用油滋润。
1:7 Your land is a desolation; Your cities are burned with fire; Your field-in your sight Strangers devour it; It is a desolation, like something overthrown by strangers.
1:8 And the daughter of Zion is left Like a booth in a vineyard, Like a hut in a cucumber field, Like a besieged city.
仅存锡安城,好像葡萄园的草棚、瓜田的茅屋、被围困的城邑。
1:9 Unless Jehovah of hosts Had left to us a surviving few, We would have been like Sodom, We would have resembled Gomorrah.
若不是万军之耶和华给我们稍留余种,我们早已像所多玛,和蛾摩拉一样了。
1:10 Hear the word of Jehovah, You rulers of Sodom; Hearken to the instruction of our God, You people of Gomorrah.
你们所多玛的官长阿,要听耶和华的话;你们蛾摩拉的百姓阿,要侧耳听我们神的训诲。
1:11 What is the multitude of your sacrifices to Me? Says Jehovah. I have had My fill of burnt offerings of rams And the fat of fed cattle; The blood of bulls and lambs And goats, I do not delight in.
1:12 When you come to appear before Me, Who has required this of your hand, To trample My courts?
你们来朝见我的时候,谁要你们手中带着这些,践踏我的院宇呢?
1:13 Bring no more vain offerings; Incense is an abomination to Me. New moon and Sabbath, the calling of convocations-I cannot bear iniquity and the solemn assembly.
1:14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts My soul hates; They have become a burden on Me; I am weary of bearing them.
你们的月朔和所定的节期,我心里恨恶;这些都成了我的重担;我担当得不耐烦了。
1:15 Thus, when you spread forth your hands, I will hide My eyes from you; Even though you multiply your prayers, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood;
你们伸开双手祷告,我必遮眼不看你们;就是你们多多祷告,我也不听。你们的手满了杀人的血。
1:16 Wash yourselves; cleanse yourselves. Turn away the evil of your deeds From before My eyes. Cease doing what is evil;
你们要洗濯自己,洁净自己;从我眼前除掉你们的恶行;要止住作恶,
1:17 Learn to do good. Seek justice; Correct the ruthless. Defend the orphan; Plead for the widow.
学习行善;寻求公平,解救受欺压的;给孤儿伸冤,为寡妇辨屈。
1:18 Come now and let us reason together, Says Jehovah. Though your sins are like scarlet, They will be as white as snow; Though they are as red as crimson, They will be like wool.
耶和华说,你们来,我们彼此辩论。你们的罪虽像朱红,必变白如雪;虽红如丹颜,必白如羊毛。
1:19 If you are willing and listen, You will eat the good of the land;
你们若甘心听从,必吃地上的美物;
1:20 But if you refuse and rebel, You will be devoured by the sword; For the mouth of Jehovah has spoken.
若不听从,反倒悖逆,必被刀剑吞灭;这是耶和华亲口说的。
1:21 How the faithful city Has become a harlot! She who was full of justice, She in whom righteousness once lodged, But now murderers!
忠信的城,何竟变为妓女!从前充满了公平,有公义居在其中,现今却有凶手居住!
1:22 Your silver has become dross; Your wine diluted with water;
你的银子变为渣滓,你的酒搀水变淡;
1:23 Your rulers are rebellious And companions of thieves; They all love bribes And chase after rewards; They do not defend the orphan, Nor does the widow's plea come before them.
1:24 Hence, the Lord Jehovah of hosts, The Mighty One of Israel, declares: Ah, I will ease Myself of My adversaries, And I will avenge Myself of My enemies;
因此,主万军之耶和华以色列的大能者说,哎,我要向我的对头雪恨,向我的仇敌报复;
1:25 And I will turn My hand against you. I will thoroughly purge away your dross as with lye, And I will remove all your alloy.
我必反手加在你身上。我必炼尽你的渣滓,如同用碱炼过,也必除净你的杂质。
1:26 And I will restore your judges as at the first And your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you will be called the city of righteousness, The faithful city.
我也必恢复你的审判官,像起初一样,恢复你的谋士,像起先一般。然后,你必称为公义之城,忠信之邑。
1:27 Zion will be ransomed with justice, And her returning ones with righteousness.
锡安必因公平得蒙救赎,其中归回的人,必因公义得蒙救赎。
1:28 And there will be the shattering of rebels and sinners together, And those who forsake Jehovah will meet their end.
但悖逆的和犯罪的必一同败亡,离弃耶和华的必致消灭。
1:29 For you will be ashamed of the terebinths That you have taken pleasure in; And you will be embarrassed at the gardens That you have chosen.
你们必因所喜爱的橡树抱愧;你们必因所选择的园子蒙羞。
1:30 For you will be like a terebinth Whose leaves are falling, And like a garden In which there is no water;
因为你们必如叶子凋落的橡树,又像无水的园子;
1:31 And the strong man will become tow, And his work a spark; And they will both burn together, And there will be none to extinguish them.
