以赛亚书 23
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
论推罗的信息
23 论推罗的默示。
哀号吧,他施的船只!
因为推罗已成废墟,没有房屋存留,
他们从基提地来的时候,得到这个消息[a]。
2 沿海的居民,西顿的商家啊,
当静默无声。
你差人航海[b],
3 在大水之上,
西曷河的粮食、
尼罗河的庄稼是推罗的进项,
它就成为列国的商埠。
4 西顿,你这海洋中的堡垒啊,应当羞愧,
因为大海说[c]:
“我未经历产痛,也没有生产,
未曾养育男孩,也没有抚养女孩。”
5 推罗的风声传到埃及时,
他们为这风声极其疼痛。
6 你们当渡到他施去,
哀号吧,沿海的居民!
7 这就是你们那古老欢乐的城市吗?
它的脚曾带人到远方居住。
8 谁定意推罗有这样的遭遇呢?
它本是赐冠冕的,
它的商家是王子,
生意人是世上尊贵的人。
9 这是万军之耶和华所定的,
为要贬抑一切荣耀的狂傲,
使地上一切尊贵的人被藐视。
10 他施[d]啊,
你要像尼罗河一样在你的地泛滥,
不再有腰带的束缚了。[e]
11 耶和华已经向海伸手,
震动列国;
他出令对付迦南,
要拆毁其中的堡垒。
12 他说:“受欺压的少女西顿[f]哪,
你必不再欢乐。
起来!渡到基提去,
就是在那里也不得安歇。
13 看哪,迦勒底人之地,这国民如今已不复存在。亚述人使它[g]成为住旷野者的居所。他们建筑自己的瞭望楼,拆毁它的宫殿,使它成为荒凉。
14 哀号吧,他施的船只!
因你们的堡垒已成废墟。
15 到那时,推罗必被忘记七十年,就是一位君王的年数。七十年后,推罗的景况必如妓女之歌:
16 “你这被遗忘的妓女啊,
带着琴周游城内,
弹得美妙,唱许多歌,
好让人记得你。”
17 七十年后,耶和华必巡视推罗,使它再度获利[h],与地面上的世界各国贸易[i]。 18 它的收益和获利都要归耶和华为圣,不再私自屯积存留;因为它的收益必归给住在耶和华面前的人,使他们吃饱,穿华丽的衣服。

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
关于泰尔的预言
23 以下是关于泰尔的预言:
他施的船只哀号吧!
因为从基提[a]传来消息,
说泰尔已被毁灭,
房屋和港口都荡然无存。
2 海边的居民,西顿[b]的商贾啊,
要静默无言。
你们的商人飘洋过海,
3 把西曷的粮食、尼罗河流域的农产都运到泰尔。
泰尔成为列国的商埠。
4 西顿啊,你要羞愧!
你这海上的堡垒啊,
大海否认你,说:
“我没有经历过产痛,
没有生过孩子,
也未曾养育过儿女。”
5 埃及人听见泰尔的消息,
都感到伤痛。
6 海边的居民啊,你们要去他施!
你们要哀号!
7 这就是你们那历史悠久、
充满欢乐的城吗?
她曾经派人到远方居住。
8 泰尔曾是封王之地,
她的商贾是王侯,
她的商人名闻天下。
但她如今的遭遇是谁定的?
9 是万军之耶和华定的,
为要摧毁因荣耀而生的骄傲,
羞辱世上的尊贵者。
10 他施的人民啊,
要像尼罗河一样穿行在自己的土地上,
因为再没有人压制你们。
11 耶和华已经在大海之上伸出惩罚之手,
使列国震动。
祂已下令毁灭迦南的堡垒。
12 祂说:“受欺压的西顿人啊,
你们再也不能欢乐了!
你们就是逃到基提,
也得不到安宁。”
13 看看迦勒底人的土地,那里已杳无人烟!亚述人使它成为野兽出没之地,他们筑起围城的高台,摧毁它的宫殿,使它沦为废墟。
14 他施的船只都哀号吧!
因为你们的堡垒已被摧毁。
15 到那日,泰尔必被遗忘七十年,正好一个王的寿数。七十年之后,泰尔必如歌中所描述的妓女:
16 “被遗忘的妓女啊,
拿起琴,走遍全城。
要弹得美妙,要多唱几首歌,
好使人再记起你。”
17 那时,耶和华必眷顾泰尔。她必重操旧业,与天下万国交易。 18 但她得到的利润和收入不会被积攒或储存起来,而是要被献给耶和华,用来供应那些事奉耶和华的人,使他们吃得饱足,穿得精美。
Isaiah 23
King James Version
23 The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them.
2 Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
3 And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.
4 Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins.
5 As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.
6 Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.
7 Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn.
8 Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honourable of the earth?
9 The Lord of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.
10 Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish: there is no more strength.
11 He stretched out his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms: the Lord hath given a commandment against the merchant city, to destroy the strong holds thereof.
12 And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there also shalt thou have no rest.
13 Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin.
14 Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.
15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot.
16 Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
17 And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the Lord will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
18 And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the Lord: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the Lord, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.
Isaiah 23
New International Version
A Prophecy Against Tyre
23 A prophecy against Tyre:(A)
Wail,(B) you ships(C) of Tarshish!(D)
For Tyre is destroyed(E)
and left without house or harbor.
From the land of Cyprus
word has come to them.
2 Be silent,(F) you people of the island
and you merchants(G) of Sidon,(H)
whom the seafarers have enriched.
3 On the great waters
came the grain of the Shihor;(I)
the harvest of the Nile[a](J) was the revenue of Tyre,(K)
and she became the marketplace of the nations.
4 Be ashamed, Sidon,(L) and you fortress of the sea,
for the sea has spoken:
“I have neither been in labor nor given birth;(M)
I have neither reared sons nor brought up daughters.”
5 When word comes to Egypt,
they will be in anguish(N) at the report from Tyre.(O)
6 Cross over to Tarshish;(P)
wail, you people of the island.
7 Is this your city of revelry,(Q)
the old, old city,
whose feet have taken her
to settle in far-off lands?
8 Who planned this against Tyre,
the bestower of crowns,
whose merchants(R) are princes,
whose traders(S) are renowned in the earth?
9 The Lord Almighty planned(T) it,
to bring down(U) her pride in all her splendor
and to humble(V) all who are renowned(W) on the earth.
10 Till[b] your land as they do along the Nile,
Daughter Tarshish,
for you no longer have a harbor.
11 The Lord has stretched out his hand(X) over the sea
and made its kingdoms tremble.(Y)
He has given an order concerning Phoenicia
that her fortresses be destroyed.(Z)
12 He said, “No more of your reveling,(AA)
Virgin Daughter(AB) Sidon, now crushed!
“Up, cross over to Cyprus;(AC)
even there you will find no rest.”
13 Look at the land of the Babylonians,[c](AD)
this people that is now of no account!
The Assyrians(AE) have made it
a place for desert creatures;(AF)
they raised up their siege towers,(AG)
they stripped its fortresses bare
and turned it into a ruin.(AH)
15 At that time Tyre(AL) will be forgotten for seventy years,(AM) the span of a king’s life. But at the end of these seventy years, it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute:
16 “Take up a harp, walk through the city,
you forgotten prostitute;(AN)
play the harp well, sing many a song,
so that you will be remembered.”
17 At the end of seventy years,(AO) the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will return to her lucrative prostitution(AP) and will ply her trade with all the kingdoms on the face of the earth.(AQ) 18 Yet her profit and her earnings will be set apart for the Lord;(AR) they will not be stored up or hoarded. Her profits will go to those who live before the Lord,(AS) for abundant food and fine clothes.(AT)

Proclamation Against Tyre
23 The (A)burden[a] against Tyre.
Wail, you ships of Tarshish!
For it is laid waste,
So that there is no house, no harbor;
From the land of [b]Cyprus it is revealed to them.
2 Be still, you inhabitants of the coastland,
You merchants of Sidon,
[c]Whom those who cross the sea have filled.
3 And on great waters the grain of Shihor,
The harvest of [d]the River, is her revenue;
And (B)she is a marketplace for the nations.
4 Be ashamed, O Sidon;
For the sea has spoken,
The strength of the sea, saying,
“I do not labor, nor bring forth children;
Neither do I rear young men,
Nor bring up virgins.”
5 (C)When the report reaches Egypt,
They also will be in agony at the report of Tyre.
6 Cross over to Tarshish;
Wail, you inhabitants of the coastland!
7 Is this your (D)joyous city,
Whose antiquity is from ancient days,
Whose feet carried her far off to dwell?
8 Who has taken this counsel against Tyre, (E)the crowning city,
Whose merchants are princes,
Whose traders are the honorable of the earth?
9 The Lord of hosts has (F)purposed it,
To [e]bring to dishonor the (G)pride of all glory,
To bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
10 Overflow through your land like [f]the River,
O daughter of Tarshish;
There is no more [g]strength.
11 He stretched out His hand over the sea,
He shook the kingdoms;
The Lord has given a commandment (H)against Canaan
To destroy its strongholds.
12 And He said, “You will rejoice no more,
O you oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon.
Arise, (I)cross over to Cyprus;
There also you will have no rest.”
13 Behold, the land of the (J)Chaldeans,
This people which was not;
Assyria founded it for (K)wild beasts of the desert.
They set up its towers,
They raised up its palaces,
And brought it to ruin.
14 (L)Wail, you ships of Tarshish!
For your strength is laid waste.
15 Now it shall come to pass in that day that Tyre will be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. At the end of seventy years it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the harlot:
16 “Take a harp, go about the city,
You forgotten harlot;
Make sweet melody, sing many songs,
That you may be remembered.”
17 And it shall be, at the end of seventy years, that the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will return to her hire, and (M)commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth. 18 Her gain and her pay (N)will be set apart for the Lord; it will not be treasured nor laid up, for her gain will be for those who dwell before the Lord, to eat sufficiently, and for [h]fine clothing.
