旧约 以赛亚书 第54章

第1段

你这不怀孕不生养的,要歌唱。你这未曾经过产难的,要发声歌唱,扬声欢呼。因为没有丈夫的,比有丈夫的儿女更多。这是耶和华说的。
Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD.

第2段

要扩张你帐幕之地,张大你居所的幔子,不要限止,要放长你的绳子,坚固你的橛子。
Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

第3段

因为你要向左向右开展。你的后裔必得多国为业,又使荒凉的城邑有人居住。
For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

第4段

不要惧怕,因你必不致蒙羞。也不要抱愧,因你必不至受辱。你必忘记幼年的羞愧,不再记念你寡居的羞辱。
Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.

第5段

因为造你的,是你的丈夫。万军之耶和华是他的名。救赎你的,是以色列的圣者。他必称为全地之神。
For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.

第6段

耶和华召你,如召被离弃心中忧伤的妻,就是幼年所娶被弃的妻。这是你神所说的。
For the LORD hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.

第7段

我离弃你不过片时,却要施大恩将你收回。
For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.

第8段

我的怒气涨溢,顷刻之间向你掩面,却要以永远的慈爱怜恤你。这是耶和华你的救赎主说的。
In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.

第9段

这事在我好像挪亚的洪水。我怎样起誓不再使挪亚的洪水漫过遍地,我也照样起誓不再向你发怒,也不斥责你。
For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.

第10段

大山可以挪开,小山可以迁移。但我的慈爱必不离开你,我平安的约也不迁移。这是怜恤你的耶和华说的。
For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.

第11段

你这受困苦被风飘荡不得安慰的人哪,我必以彩色安置你的石头,以蓝宝石立定你的根基。
O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.

第12段

又以红宝石造你的女墙,以红玉造你的城门,以宝石造你四围的边界。(或作外郭)
And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.

第13段

你的儿女都要受耶和华的教训。你的儿女必大享平安。
And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.

第14段

你必因公义得坚立。必远离欺压,不至害怕。你必远离惊吓,惊吓必不临近你。
In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.

第15段

即或有人聚集,却不由于我。凡聚集攻击你的,必因你仆倒。(因你仆倒或作投降你)
Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.

第16段

吹嘘炭打,打造合用器械的铁匠,是我所造。残害人行毁灭的,也是我所造。
Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.

第17段

凡为攻击你造成的器械,必不利用。凡在审判时兴起用舌攻击你的,你必定为他有罪。这是耶和华仆人的产业,是他们从我所得的义。这是耶和华说的。
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.
