以赛亚书 59
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
因罪与主隔绝
59 看啊，耶和华的臂膀并非没有力量拯救，
祂的耳朵并非聋得听不见。
2 你们的罪过使你们与上帝隔绝，
你们的罪恶使祂转脸不看你们，
也不听你们的祈求。
3 你们的手染满了血污，
手指沾满了罪恶。
你们的嘴唇吐出谎言，
舌头嘀咕恶事。
4 无人按公义诉讼，
无人凭诚实申辩。
你们依靠诡辩，口出谎言，
心怀鬼胎，生出罪恶。
5 你们孵毒蛇蛋，
人吃了这蛋必死，
蛋破后爬出毒蛇。
你们编蜘蛛网，
6 这网不能做衣服遮盖你们。
你们行为邪恶，
做事残暴。
7 你们奔向邪恶，
急于滥杀无辜；
你们心怀恶念，
所到之处大肆毁灭。
8 你们不知道平安之路，
你们的行径毫无公正；
你们走歪门邪道，
跟从你们的必得不到平安。
9 因此，正义远离我们，
公义临不到我们。
我们渴望光明，却得到黑暗；
我们渴望曙光，却仍然走在幽暗中。
10 我们像盲人一样沿墙摸索，
像无眼睛的人一样探路。
我们在中午也跌跌撞撞，
如同走在晚上。
我们在强壮人当中如同死人。
11 我们像熊一样咆哮，
如鸽子一般哀鸣。
我们渴望正义，却得不到；
渴望得到拯救，却遥不可及。
12 因为我们在上帝面前过犯累累，
我们的罪恶向我们发出控诉。
我们被过犯缠身，自知有罪。
13 我们悖逆，否认耶和华，
离弃我们的上帝，
说欺压、叛逆的话，
吐露心中编织的谎言。
14 正义被赶逐，
公义不能靠近，
真理倒在街上，
正直被拒之门外。
15 真理无处可寻，
远离恶事的人反成了猎物。
耶和华因正义荡然无存而不悦。
16 祂因无人、
无一个人主持公道而惊讶，
于是亲自伸出臂膀，
以自己的公义施行拯救。
17 祂以公义作铠甲，
以救恩作头盔，
以复仇作衣服，
以热忱作外袍。
18 祂必按各人的行为报应各人，
向祂的敌人发烈怒，
惩罚祂的仇敌，
向众海岛施行报应。
19 这样，日落之处的人必敬畏耶和华的名，
日出之地的人必对祂的荣耀肃然起敬。
祂必奔来，如被耶和华之气推动的急流。
20 耶和华说：“必有一位救赎主来到锡安，
到雅各那些离弃罪恶的子孙那里。”
21 耶和华说：“我亲自与他们立约，我赐给他们的灵和我放在他们口中的话，必不离开他们和他们的子子孙孙，从现在直到永远。这是耶和华说的。”
以賽亞書 59
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
因罪與主隔絕
59 看啊，耶和華的臂膀並非沒有力量拯救，
祂的耳朵並非聾得聽不見。
2 你們的罪過使你們與上帝隔絕，
你們的罪惡使祂轉臉不看你們，
也不聽你們的祈求。
3 你們的手染滿了血污，
手指沾滿了罪惡。
你們的嘴唇吐出謊言，
舌頭嘀咕惡事。
4 無人按公義訴訟，
無人憑誠實申辯。
你們依靠詭辯，口出謊言，
心懷鬼胎，生出罪惡。
5 你們孵毒蛇蛋，
人吃了這蛋必死，
蛋破後爬出毒蛇。
你們編蜘蛛網，
6 這網不能做衣服遮蓋你們。
你們行為邪惡，
做事殘暴。
7 你們奔向邪惡，
急於濫殺無辜；
你們心懷惡念，
所到之處大肆毀滅。
8 你們不知道平安之路，
你們的行徑毫無公正；
你們走歪門邪道，
跟從你們的必得不到平安。
9 因此，正義遠離我們，
公義臨不到我們。
我們渴望光明，卻得到黑暗；
我們渴望曙光，卻仍然走在幽暗中。
10 我們像盲人一樣沿牆摸索，
像無眼睛的人一樣探路。
我們在中午也跌跌撞撞，
如同走在晚上。
我們在強壯人當中如同死人。
11 我們像熊一樣咆哮，
如鴿子一般哀鳴。
我們渴望正義，卻得不到；
渴望得到拯救，卻遙不可及。
12 因為我們在上帝面前過犯纍纍，
我們的罪惡向我們發出控訴。
我們被過犯纏身，自知有罪。
13 我們悖逆，否認耶和華，
離棄我們的上帝，
說欺壓、叛逆的話，
吐露心中編織的謊言。
14 正義被趕逐，
公義不能靠近，
真理倒在街上，
正直被拒之門外。
15 真理無處可尋，
遠離惡事的人反成了獵物。
耶和華因正義蕩然無存而不悅。
16 祂因無人、
無一個人主持公道而驚訝，
於是親自伸出臂膀，
以自己的公義施行拯救。
17 祂以公義作鎧甲，
以救恩作頭盔，
以復仇作衣服，
以熱忱作外袍。
18 祂必按各人的行為報應各人，
向祂的敵人發烈怒，
懲罰祂的仇敵，
向眾海島施行報應。
19 這樣，日落之處的人必敬畏耶和華的名，
日出之地的人必對祂的榮耀肅然起敬。
祂必奔來，如被耶和華之氣推動的急流。
20 耶和華說：「必有一位救贖主來到錫安，
到雅各那些離棄罪惡的子孫那裡。」
21 耶和華說：「我親自與他們立約，我賜給他們的靈和我放在他們口中的話，必不離開他們和他們的子子孫孫，從現在直到永遠。這是耶和華說的。」
Isaiah 59
New King James Version
Separated from God
59 Behold, the Lord’s hand is not (A)shortened,
That it cannot save;
Nor His ear heavy,
That it cannot hear.
2 But your iniquities have separated you from your God;
And your sins have hidden His face from you,
So that He will (B)not hear.
3 For (C)your hands are defiled with [a]blood,
And your fingers with iniquity;
Your lips have spoken lies,
Your tongue has muttered perversity.
4 No one calls for justice,
Nor does any plead for truth.
They trust in (D)empty words and speak lies;
(E)They conceive [b]evil and bring forth iniquity.
5 They hatch vipers’ eggs and weave the spider’s web;
He who eats of their eggs dies,
And from that which is crushed a viper breaks out.
6 (F)Their webs will not become garments,
Nor will they cover themselves with their works;
Their works are works of iniquity,
And the act of violence is in their hands.
7 (G)Their feet run to evil,
And they make haste to shed (H)innocent blood;
(I)Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
Wasting and (J)destruction are in their paths.
8 The way of (K)peace they have not known,
And there is no justice in their ways;
(L)They have made themselves crooked paths;
Whoever takes that way shall not know peace.
Sin Confessed
9 Therefore justice is far from us,
Nor does righteousness overtake us;
(M)We look for light, but there is darkness!
For brightness, but we walk in blackness!
10 (N)We grope for the wall like the blind,
And we grope as if we had no eyes;
We stumble at noonday as at twilight;
We are as dead men in desolate places.
11 We all growl like bears,
And (O)moan sadly like doves;
We look for justice, but there is none;
For salvation, but it is far from us.
12 For our (P)transgressions are multiplied before You,
And our sins testify against us;
For our transgressions are with us,
And as for our iniquities, we know them:
13 In transgressing and lying against the Lord,
And departing from our God,
Speaking oppression and revolt,
Conceiving and uttering (Q)from the heart words of falsehood.
14 Justice is turned back,
And righteousness stands afar off;
For truth is fallen in the street,
And equity cannot enter.
15 So truth fails,
And he who departs from evil makes himself a (R)prey.
The Redeemer of Zion
Then the Lord saw it, and [c]it displeased Him
That there was no justice.
16 (S)He saw that there was no man,
And (T)wondered that there was no intercessor;
(U)Therefore His own arm brought salvation for Him;
And His own righteousness, it sustained Him.
17 (V)For He put on righteousness as a breastplate,
And a helmet of salvation on His head;
He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing,
And was clad with zeal as a cloak.
18 (W)According to their deeds, accordingly He will repay,
Fury to His adversaries,
Recompense to His enemies;
The coastlands He will fully repay.
19 (X)So shall they fear
The name of the Lord from the west,
And His glory from the rising of the sun;
When the enemy comes in (Y)like a flood,
The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.
20 “The(Z) Redeemer will come to Zion,
And to those who turn from transgression in Jacob,”
Says the Lord.
21 “As(AA) for Me,” says the Lord, “this is My covenant with them: My Spirit who is upon you, and My words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your descendants, nor from the mouth of your descendants’ descendants,” says the Lord, “from this time and forevermore.”
