以賽亞書

第41章

1 瀕海之民、宜緘口、遠方之人、當補力、俱集我所、與我辯論。

2 誰召義人、至自東方、導之以行、服衆國、制列王、以鋒刃擊敵、以弓矢射衆、擣之成粉、若風揚粃。

3 追至不識之途、絕無陷害之虞、

4 誰使之然、惟肇基邦國之主而已、我耶和華始始之、終終之者也。

5 義人所爲、洲島之民見之而懼、地極之衆、靡不驚駭、咸來和會、

6 更相勸勉、造作偶像、曰、壯乃心、

7 木工、金工、細工、粗工、無不相助爲理、使金互相銜接、釘之以釘、不能搖撼。

8 昔我眷顧亞伯拉罕、簡其後裔、以色列族雅各家、爲我臣僕。

9 自地極天涯、召之以至曰、我簡爾爲僕、不汝遐棄。

10 我乃爾之上帝、必左右爾、扶翼爾、手援爾、以彰仁義、故勿畏葸、勿狐疑、

11 憾爾者皆媿怍、敵爾者俱死亡、

12 凡與爾戰、必歸烏有、欲見無從。

13 我耶和華爾之上帝、必攜爾手、謂爾曰、予扶翼爾、故勿恐懼、

14 雅各家以色列族、素若蚯蚓、我耶和華乃爾聖主、必加拯救、眷祐爾躬。

15 爾之仇敵、高若山岡、我將使爾爲打榖之器、惟新其製、而有利齒、可擊諸敵、擣之成粉、有若粃糠。

16 後簸揚之、任風吹散。我耶和華乃以色列族之聖主、爾曹賴我、其樂靡涯。

17 貧乏之民、求水不得、口舌煩燥、莫能解渴、我耶和華以色列族之上帝、必聽其祈、而不遺棄。

18 山谷之間、必出水泉、曠野之所、必成池沼、我使之然。

19 在彼槁壞、必植柏香木、皂莢木、岡拈木、油木、松木、杉木、黃楊木。

20 使人無不曉然、咸知我耶和華以色列族之聖主作此。

21 雅各之君耶和華、又告拜偶像者曰、當以爾之要道、陳設於衆。

22 使偶像至此、以未來之事、孰先孰後、明告乎我、觀其言、果有驗否、

23 使彼言未來之事、借異蹟以行彰癉、令我見之駭愕、知彼爲上帝。

24 偶像虛妄、作偶像者亦虛妄、崇奉偶像者、深可疾也。

25 我使義人崛興、自北而至、亦在日出之鄉、以龥我名、糜爛牧伯、如匠人之擣土、如陶人之躪泥。

26 崇拜偶像之人、誰能預言、事之未至、俾人曉然、事之旣成、服其先見、爾中能此者迄無其人、如其有之、人未之聞。

27 維昔獨我遣告郇邑、及耶路撒冷人、使知嘉音、曰、聽之聽之、

28 我觀崇拜偶像之人、未來之事不能卜、詰之不能答、

29 金鑄之偶、空洞無物、譬諸飄風俱爲虛妄、悉歸烏有。

Isaiah

Chapter 41

1 Keep silence2790 before413 me, O islands;339 and let the people3816 renew2498 their strength:3581 let them come5066 near;5066 then227 let them speak:1696 let us come7126 near7126 together3162 to judgment.4941

2 Who4310 raised5782 up the righteous6664 man from the east,4217 called7121 him to his foot,7272 gave5414 the nations1471 before6440 him, and made him rule7287 over kings?4428 he gave5414 them as the dust6083 to his sword,2719 and as driven5086 stubble7179 to his bow.7198

3 He pursued7291 them, and passed5674 safely;7965 even by the way734 that he had not gone935 with his feet.7272

4 Who4310 has worked6466 and done6213 it, calling7121 the generations1755 from the beginning?7218 I the LORD,3068 the first,7223 and with the last;314 I am he.

5 The isles339 saw7200 it, and feared;3372 the ends7098 of the earth776 were afraid,2729 drew near,7126 and came.857

6 They helped5826 every376 one376 his neighbor;7453 and every376 one376 said559 to his brother,251 Be of good1319 courage.2388

7 So the carpenter2796 encouraged2388 the goldsmith,6884 and he that smoothes2505 with the hammer6360 him that smote1986 the anvil,6471 saying,559 It is ready2896 for the soldering:1694 and he fastened2388 it with nails,4548 that it should not be moved.4131

8 But you, Israel,3478 are my servant,5650 Jacob3290 whom834 I have chosen,977 the seed2233 of Abraham85 my friend.157

9 You whom834 I have taken2388 from the ends7098 of the earth,776 and called7121 you from the chief678 men thereof, and said559 to you, You are my servant;5650 I have chosen977 you, and not cast3988 you away.

10 Fear3372 you not; for I am with you: be not dismayed;8159 for I am your God:430 I will strengthen553 you; yes,637 I will help5826 you; yes,637 I will uphold8551 you with the right3225 hand3225 of my righteousness.6664

11 Behold,2005 all3605 they that were incensed2734 against you shall be ashamed954 and confounded:3637 they shall be as nothing;369 and they that strive7379 with you shall perish.6

12 You shall seek1245 them, and shall not find4672 them, even them that contended4695 with you: they that war4421 against you shall be as nothing,369 and as a thing of nothing.657

13 For I the LORD3068 your God430 will hold2388 your right3225 hand,3225 saying559 to you, Fear3372 not; I will help5826 you.

14 Fear3372 not, you worm8438 Jacob,3290 and you men4962 of Israel;3478 I will help5826 you, said5002 the LORD,3068 and your redeemer,1350 the Holy6918 One of Israel.3478

15 Behold,2009 I will make7760 you a new2319 sharp2742 threshing4173 instrument having1167 teeth:6374 you shall thresh1758 the mountains,2022 and beat1854 them small,1854 and shall make7760 the hills1389 as chaff.4671

16 You shall fan2219 them, and the wind7307 shall carry5375 them away, and the whirlwind5591 shall scatter6327 them: and you shall rejoice1523 in the LORD,3068 and shall glory1984 in the Holy6918 One of Israel.3478

17 When the poor6041 and needy34 seek1245 water,4325 and there is none,369 and their tongue3956 fails5405 for thirst,6772 I the LORD3068 will hear6030 them, I the God430 of Israel3478 will not forsake5800 them.

18 I will open6605 rivers5103 in high8205 places, and fountains4599 in the middle8432 of the valleys:1237 I will make7760 the wilderness4057 a pool98 of water,4325 and the dry6723 land776 springs4161 of water.4325

19 I will plant5414 in the wilderness4057 the cedar,730 the shittah7848 tree,6086 and the myrtle,1918 and the oil8081 tree; I will set7760 in the desert6160 the fir1265 tree, and the pine,8410 and the box8391 tree together:3162

20 That they may see,7200 and know,3045 and consider,7760 and understand7919 together,3162 that the hand3027 of the LORD3068 has done6213 this,2063 and the Holy6918 One of Israel3478 has created1254 it.

21 Produce7126 your cause,7379 said559 the LORD;3068 bring5066 forth5066 your strong6110 reasons, said559 the King4428 of Jacob.3290

22 Let them bring5066 them forth,5066 and show5046 us what853 834 shall happen:7136 let them show5046 the former7223 things, what4100 they be, that we may consider7760 3820 them, and know3045 the latter319 end of them; or declare8085 us things for to come.935

23 Show5046 the things that are to come857 hereafter,268 that we may know3045 that you are gods:430 yes,637 do good,3190 or do evil,7489 that we may be dismayed,8159 and behold7200 it together.3162

24 Behold,2005 you are of nothing,369 and your work6467 of nothing:659 an abomination8441 is he that chooses977 you.

25 I have raised5782 up one from the north,6828 and he shall come:857 from the rising4217 of the sun8121 shall he call7121 on my name:8034 and he shall come935 on princes5461 as on mortar,2563 and as the potter3335 treads7429 clay.2916

26 Who4310 has declared5046 from the beginning,7218 that we may know?3045 and beforetime,6440 that we may say,559 He is righteous?6662 yes,637 there is none369 that shows,5046 yes,637 there is none369 that declares,5046 yes,637 there is none369 that hears8085 your words.561

27 The first7223 shall say to Zion,6726 Behold,2009 behold2009 them: and I will give5414 to Jerusalem3389 one that brings1319 good1319 tidings.1319

28 For I beheld,7200 and there was no369 man;376 even among them, and there was no369 counselor,3289 that, when I asked7592 of them, could answer7725 a word.1697

29 Behold,2005 they are all3605 vanity;205 their works4639 are nothing:657 their molten5262 images are wind7307 and confusion.8414

18 山谷之間、必出水泉、曠野之所、必成池沼、我使之然。

18 I will open6605 rivers5103 in high8205 places, and fountains4599 in the middle8432 of the valleys:1237 I will make7760 the wilderness4057 a pool98 of water,4325 and the dry6723 land776 springs4161 of water.4325

19 在彼槁壞、必植柏香木、皂莢木、岡拈木、油木、松木、杉木、黃楊木。

24 Behold,2005 you are of nothing,369 and your work6467 of nothing:659 an abomination8441 is he that chooses977 you.

27 The first7223 shall say to Zion,6726 Behold,2009 behold2009 them: and I will give5414 to Jerusalem3389 one that brings1319 good1319 tidings.1319

28 我觀崇拜偶像之人、未來之事不能卜、詰之不能答、

28 For I beheld,7200 and there was no369 man;376 even among them, and there was no369 counselor,3289 that, when I asked7592 of them, could answer7725 a word.1697

29 金鑄之偶、空洞無物、譬諸飄風俱爲虛妄、悉歸烏有。

29 Behold,2005 they are all3605 vanity;205 their works4639 are nothing:657 their molten5262 images are wind7307 and confusion.8414
