论受膏者之职任

61 “主耶和华的灵在我身上,因为耶和华用膏膏我,叫我传好信息给谦卑的人[a],差遣我医好伤心的人,报告被掳的得释放、被囚的出监牢, 报告耶和华的恩年和我们神报仇的日子,安慰一切悲哀的人, 赐华冠于锡安悲哀的人代替灰尘,喜乐油代替悲哀,赞美衣代替忧伤之灵,使他们称为公义树,是耶和华所栽的,叫他得荣耀。”

信道者必获显荣

他们必修造已久的荒场,建立先前凄凉之处,重修历代荒凉之城。 那时外人必起来牧放你们的羊群,外邦人必做你们耕种田地的,修理葡萄园的。 你们倒要称为耶和华的祭司,人必称你们为我们神的仆役。你们必吃用列国的财物,因得他们的荣耀自夸。 你们必得加倍的好处代替所受的羞辱,份中所得的喜乐必代替所受的凌辱;在境内必得加倍的产业,永远之乐必归于你们[b] “因为我耶和华喜爱公平,恨恶抢夺和罪孽。我要凭诚实施行报应,并要与我的百姓立永约。 他们的后裔必在列国中被人认识,他们的子孙在众民中也是如此,凡看见他们的必认他们是耶和华赐福的后裔。”

10 “我因耶和华大大欢喜,我的心靠神快乐。因他以拯救为衣给我穿上,以公义为袍给我披上,好像新郎戴上华冠,又像新妇佩戴装饰。 11 田地怎样使百谷发芽,园子怎样使所种的发生,主耶和华必照样使公义和赞美在万民中发出。”

The Lord Will Rejuvenate His People

61 The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me,
because the Lord has chosen[a] me.[b]
He has commissioned[c] me to encourage[d] the poor,
to help[e] the brokenhearted,
to decree the release of captives,
and the freeing of prisoners,
to announce the year when the Lord will show his favor,
the day when our God will seek vengeance,[f]
to console all who mourn,
to strengthen those who mourn in Zion,
by giving them a turban, instead of ashes,
oil symbolizing joy,[g] instead of mourning,
a garment symbolizing praise,[h] instead of discouragement.[i]
They will be called oaks of righteousness,[j]
trees planted by the Lord to reveal his splendor.[k]
They will rebuild the perpetual ruins
and restore the places that were desolate;[l]
they will reestablish the ruined cities,
the places that have been desolate since ancient times.
[m] “Foreigners will take care of[n] your sheep;
foreigners will work in your fields and vineyards.
You will be called, ‘the Lord’s priests,
servants of our God.’[o]
You will enjoy[p] the wealth of nations
and boast about[q] the riches you receive from them.[r]
Instead of shame, you will get a double portion;[s]
instead of humiliation, they will rejoice over the land they receive.[t]
Yes,[u] they will possess a double portion in their land
and experience lasting joy.
For I, the Lord, love justice
and hate robbery and sin.
I will repay them because of my faithfulness;[v]
I will make a permanent covenant with them.
Their descendants will be known among the nations,
their offspring among the peoples.
All who see them will recognize that
the Lord has blessed them.”[w]
10 I[x] will greatly rejoice[y] in the Lord;
I will be overjoyed because of my God.[z]
For he clothes me in garments of deliverance;
he puts on me a robe symbolizing vindication.[aa]
I look like a bridegroom when he wears a turban as a priest would;
I look like a bride when she puts on her jewelry.[ab]
11 For just as the ground produces its crops
and a garden yields its produce,
so the Sovereign Lord will cause deliverance[ac] to grow,
and give his people reason to praise him in the sight of all the nations.[ad]

Footnotes

  1. Isaiah 61:1 tn Heb “anointed,” i.e., designated to carry out an assigned task.
  2. Isaiah 61:1 sn The speaker is not identified, but he is distinct from the Lord and from Zion’s suffering people. He possesses the divine spirit, is God’s spokesman, and is sent to release prisoners from bondage. The evidence suggests he is the Lord’s special servant, described earlier in the servant songs (see 42:1-4, 7; 49:2, 9; 50:4; see also 51:16).
  3. Isaiah 61:1 tn Or “sent” (NAB); NCV “has appointed me.”
  4. Isaiah 61:1 tn Or “proclaim good news to.”
  5. Isaiah 61:1 tn Heb “to bind up [the wounds of].”
  6. Isaiah 61:2 tn Heb “to announce the year of the Lord’s favor, and the day of our God’s vengeance.
  7. Isaiah 61:3 tn Heb “oil of joy” (KJV, ASV); NASB, NIV, NRSV “the oil of gladness.”
  8. Isaiah 61:3 tn Heb “garment of praise.”
  9. Isaiah 61:3 tn Heb “a faint spirit” (so NRSV); KJV, ASV “the spirit of heaviness”; NASB “a spirit of fainting.”
  10. Isaiah 61:3 tn Rather than referring to the character of the people, צֶדֶק (tsedeq) may carry the nuance “vindication” here, suggesting that God’s restored people are a testimony to his justice. See v. 2, which alludes to the fact that God will take vengeance against the enemies of his people. Cf. NAB “oaks of justice.”
  11. Isaiah 61:3 tn Heb “a planting of the Lord to reveal splendor.”
  12. Isaiah 61:4 tn Heb “and the formerly desolate places they will raise up.”
  13. Isaiah 61:5 sn The Lord speaks in vv. 7-8 (and possibly v. 9). It is not clear where the servant’s speech (see vv. 1-3a) ends and the Lord’s begins. Perhaps the direct address to the people signals the beginning of the Lord’s speech.
  14. Isaiah 61:5 tn Heb “will stand [in position] and shepherd.”
  15. Isaiah 61:6 tn The Hebrew text adds, “it will be said concerning you.”
  16. Isaiah 61:6 tn Heb “eat” (KJV, NAB, NASB); NIV “feed on”; NLT “be fed with.”
  17. Isaiah 61:6 tc The form in the Hebrew text probably needs to be emended to יִתְאַמְּרוּ (yitʾammeru), a Hitpael from אָמַר (ʾamar), meaning “boast about” (see HALOT 67 s.v. II אמר, HALOT 416 s.v. ימר, and BDB 56 s.v. אָמַר).
  18. Isaiah 61:6 tn Heb “their glory” (i.e., riches).
  19. Isaiah 61:7 tn Heb “instead of your shame, a double portion.”
  20. Isaiah 61:7 tn Heb “and [instead of] humiliation they will rejoice [over] their portion.” The term תַחַת (takhat, “instead of”) is understood by ellipsis (note the preceding line).
  21. Isaiah 61:7 tn Heb “therefore” (so KJV, NASB); NIV “and so.”
  22. Isaiah 61:8 tn Heb “in faithfulness”; NASB, NRSV, NLT “faithfully.”
  23. Isaiah 61:9 tn Heb “all who see them will recognize them, that they [are] descendants [whom] the Lord has blessed.”
  24. Isaiah 61:10 sn The speaker in vv. 10-11 is not identified, but it is likely that the personified nation (or perhaps Zion) responds here to the Lord’s promise of restoration.
  25. Isaiah 61:10 tn The infinitive absolute appears before the finite verb for emphasis.
  26. Isaiah 61:10 tn Heb “my being is happy in my God”; NAB “in my God is the joy of my soul.”
  27. Isaiah 61:10 tn Heb “robe of vindication”; KJV, NASB, NIV, NRSV “robe of righteousness.”
  28. Isaiah 61:10 tn Heb “like a bridegroom [who] acts like a priest [by wearing] a turban, and like a bride [who] wears her jewelry.” The words “I look” are supplied for stylistic reasons and clarification.
  29. Isaiah 61:11 tn Or perhaps, “righteousness,” but the context seems to emphasize deliverance and restoration (see v. 10 and 62:1).
  30. Isaiah 61:11 tn Heb “and praise before all the nations.”
