51:1 Listen to Me, you who pursue righteousness, Who seek after Jehovah, Look to the rock from which you were hewn, And to the excavation of the quarry from which you were dug.
51:3 For Jehovah has comforted Zion; He has comforted all her waste places, And made her wilderness like Eden, And her desert like the garden of Jehovah. Gladness and joy will be found in her, Thanksgiving and the voice of song.
51:4 Hearken to Me, O My people; Give ear to Me, O My nation; For instruction will go out from Me; And I will set My judgment as a light for the peoples.
我的百姓阿,要留心听我;我的国民哪,要向我侧耳;因为训诲必从我而出,我必立定我的典章为万民之光。
51:5 My righteousness is near; My salvation has gone forth; My arms will judge the peoples; The coastlands will wait for Me And place their hope in My arm.
我的公义临近,我的救恩已经发出,我的膀臂要审判众民;众海岛要等候我,寄望于我的膀臂。
51:6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, And look upon the earth beneath; For the heavens will vanish away like smoke, And the earth will wear out like a garment, And those who dwell there will die in like manner; But My salvation will be forever, And My righteousness will not be abolished.
51:7 Listen to Me, you who know righteousness, A people in whose heart is My instruction, Do not fear the reproach of man; Do not be terrified at their revilings.
你们这知道公义,将我训诲存在心中的民,要听我言,不要怕人的辱骂,也不要因人的毁谤惊惶。
51:8 For the moth will eat them up like a garment, And the worm will eat them like wool; But My righteousness will be forever, And My salvation from generation to generation.
因为蛀虫必咬他们,好像咬衣服,虫子必咬他们,如同咬羊绒;惟有我的公义永远长存,我的救恩直到万代。
51:9 Awake, awake! Put on strength, O arm of Jehovah; Awake as in the days of old, As in the generations of past ages. Was it not You who cut Rahab in pieces, Who pierced through the dragon?
51:10 Was it not You who dried up the sea, The waters of the great deep; Who made the depths of the sea into a way For the redeemed to pass through?
使海与深渊的水干涸,使海的深处变为赎民经过之路的,不是你么?
51:11 Therefore the ransomed of Jehovah will return And will come to Zion with a ringing shout, And eternal joy will be upon their heads. They will lay hold on gladness and joy, And sorrow and sighing will flee away.
51:12 I, even I, am He who will comfort you. Who are you that you are afraid of man who will die, And of the son of man who will be made like grass,
惟有我是耶和华,是安慰你们的。你是谁,竟怕那必死的人,怕那要变如草的世人;
51:13 That you have forgotten Jehovah who made you, Who stretched out the heavens And laid the foundations of the earth, That you have been continually afraid every day, Because of the fury of the oppressor When he sets himself up to destroy you? But where is the fury of the oppressor?
51:14 The one who is bowed down will soon be released And will not die in the pit, Nor will his bread be lacking.
被捆绑的快要得释放,必不死而下坑;他的食物也不至缺乏。
51:15 I am Jehovah your God, Who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar, Jehovah of hosts is His name.
我是耶和华你的神,就是那搅动大海,使海中波浪匉訇的,万军之耶和华是祂的名。
51:16 And I have put My words in your mouth, And I have covered you in the shadow of My hand, To plant the heavens and lay the foundations of the earth, And to say to Zion, You are My people.
我已将我的话放在你口中,用我的手荫遮蔽你,为要栽定诸天,建立地基,又对锡安说,你是我的百姓。
51:17 Wake yourself up, wake yourselfup; Stand up, O Jerusalem, You who have drunk from the hand of Jehovah The cup of His wrath; The bowl of the cup of staggering You have drunk; you have drained it out.
51:18 There is no one to guide her Among all the children whom she has brought forth; There is no one to take her by the hand Among all the children she has raised up.
她所生的众子中,没有一个引导她的;她所养大的众子中,没有一个搀扶她手的。
51:19 These two things have happened to you; Who will lament for you? Desolation and destruction, and famine and sword. How will I comfort you?
荒凉与毁灭,饥荒与刀剑,这两样临到你,谁为你举哀?我如何安慰你呢?
51:20 Your sons have fainted; They lie at the head of every street like an antelope in a net, Full of the wrath of Jehovah, The rebuke of your God.
你的众子发昏;他们在各街头躺卧,好像黄羊在网罗之中,满受了耶和华的忿怒,你神的斥责。
51:21 Therefore hear this now, O afflicted one, You who are drunk but not with wine:
因此,你这困苦的,非因酒而醉的,要听这话:
51:22 Thus says your Lord Jehovah and your God Who pleads the cause of His people, Indeed, I have taken from your hand The cup of staggering; You will no longer need to drink The bowl of the cup of My wrath anymore;
51:23 And I will put it into the hand of those who afflict you, Who have said to your soul, Bow down That we may walk over you; And you have made your back like the ground, Like the street for them to cross over.
