以赛亚书 25
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
赞美之歌
25 耶和华啊!你是我的上帝,我要尊崇你,赞美你的名。你信实无比,
按你古时定下的计划行了奇妙的事。
2 你使城邑沦为废墟,
使坚垒沦为荒场。
外族人的宫殿不复存在,
永远不能重建。
3 因此,强盛的国家必颂扬你,
残暴的民族必敬畏你。
4 你是贫穷人的避难所,
是困苦之人患难中的避难所,
你是避风港,
是酷暑中的阴凉处。
残暴之徒的气息好像吹袭墙垣的暴风,
5 又像沙漠中的热气。
但你平息外族人的喧哗,
止息残暴之徒的歌声,
好像云朵消去酷热。
6 在锡安山上,万军之耶和华必为天下万民摆设丰盛的宴席,有陈年佳酿和精选的美食。 7 在这山上,祂必除去遮蔽万民的面纱和笼罩万国的幔子。 8 祂必永远吞灭死亡。主耶和华必擦去各人脸上的眼泪,从世上除掉祂子民的羞辱。这是耶和华说的。 9 到那日,人们必说:“看啊,这是我们的上帝,我们信靠祂,祂拯救了我们。这是耶和华,我们信靠祂,我们要因祂的拯救而欢喜快乐。” 10 耶和华必伸手保护这山,但摩押人必被践踏,像干草被践踏在粪池中。 11 他们必在里面张开手臂,好像张开手臂游泳的人一样。耶和华必摧毁他们的骄傲,挫败他们手中的诡计。 12 祂必拆毁他们高大坚固的城墙,将其夷为平地、化为尘土。
Isaiah 25
New King James Version
Praise to God
25 O Lord, You are my God.
(A)I will exalt You,
I will praise Your name,
(B)For You have done wonderful things;
(C)Your counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.
2 For You have made (D)a city a ruin,
A fortified city a ruin,
A palace of foreigners to be a city no more;
It will never be rebuilt.
3 Therefore the strong people will (E)glorify You;
The city of the [a]terrible nations will fear You.
4 For You have been a strength to the poor,
A strength to the needy in his distress,
(F)A refuge from the storm,
A shade from the heat;
For the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.
5 You will reduce the noise of aliens,
As heat in a dry place;
As heat in the shadow of a cloud,
The song of the terrible ones will be [b]diminished.
6 And in (G)this mountain
(H)The Lord of hosts will make for (I)all people
A feast of [c]choice pieces,
A feast of [d]wines on the lees,
Of fat things full of marrow,
Of well-refined wines on the lees.
7 And He will destroy on this mountain
The surface of the covering cast over all people,
And (J)the veil that is spread over all nations.
8 He will (K)swallow up death forever,
And the Lord God will (L)wipe away tears from all faces;
The rebuke of His people
He will take away from all the earth;
For the Lord has spoken.
9 And it will be said in that day:
“Behold, this is our God;
(M)We have waited for Him, and He will save us.
This is the Lord;
We have waited for Him;
(N)We will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.”
10 For on this mountain the hand of the Lord will rest,
And (O)Moab shall be trampled down under Him,
As straw is trampled down for the refuse heap.
11 And He will spread out His hands in their midst
As a swimmer reaches out to swim,
And He will bring down their (P)pride
Together with the trickery of their hands.
12 The (Q)fortress of the high fort of your walls
He will bring down, lay low,
And bring to the ground, down to the dust.

Isaiah 25
Jubilee Bible 2000
25 ¶ O LORD, thou art my God; I will exalt thee; I will praise thy name for thou hast done wonders, the counsels of old, the truth unchanging.
2 That thou hast turned the city into a heap; the defenced city into a ruin: the palace of strangers to not be a city; it shall never be rebuilt.
3 Therefore the strong people shall glorify thee; the city of the strong Gentiles shall fear thee.
4 For thou hast been strength to the poor, strength to the needy in his distress, refuge from the storm, shadow from the heat, for the force of the violent is as a storm against the wall.
5 As the heat in a dry place, thou shalt bring down the pride of the strangers; even as with heat that burns beneath a cloud, thou shalt cause the offshoot of the stout ones to wither.
6 ¶ And in this mountain the LORD of the hosts shall make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of purified wines, of fat things full of marrow, of purified liquids.
7 And he will undo in this mountain the mask of the covering with which all the peoples are covered and the veil that is extended over all the Gentiles.
8 He will destroy death forever; and the Lord GOD shall wipe away every tear from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people he shall take away from off all the earth: for the LORD has determined it.
9 ¶ And it shall be said in that day, Behold, this is our God, whom we have waited for, and he has saved us: this is the LORD, whom we have waited for, we will be glad and rejoice in his saving health.
10 For in this mountain the hand of the LORD shall rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.
11 And he shall extend his hand in the midst of him as he that swims spreads forth his hand to swim: and he shall bring down his pride with the members of his hands
12 and lay siege to the fortress of thy high walls; he shall humble it and bring it down to the ground, even to the dust.
