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。

Yahweh Will Swallow Up Death
25 O Yahweh, You are (A)my God;
I will exalt You, I will give thanks to Your name;
For You have (B)worked wonders,
(C)Counsels formed long ago, with perfect faithfulness.
2 For You have made a city into a (D)heap,
A (E)fortified town into a ruin;
A (F)palace of strangers is a city no more,
It will never be rebuilt.
3 Therefore a strong people will (G)glorify You;
(H)Towns of ruthless nations will fear You.
4 For You have been a (I)strong defense for the poor,
A strong defense for the needy in his distress,
A (J)refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat;
For the breath of the (K)ruthless
Is like a rain storm against a wall.
5 Like heat in a dry land, You subdue the (L)rumbling of strangers;
Like heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the ruthless is [a]silenced.
6 (M)And Yahweh of hosts will prepare a [b]lavish banquet for (N)all peoples on this mountain;
A banquet of [c]aged wine, [d]choice pieces with marrow,
And [e]refined, aged wine.
7 And on this mountain He will swallow up the [f](O)covering which is over all peoples,
Even the veil which is [g]stretched over all nations.
8 He will (P)swallow up death for all time,
And Lord Yahweh will (Q)wipe tears away from all faces,
And He will remove the (R)reproach of His people from all the earth;
For Yahweh has spoken.
9 And it will be said in that day,
“Behold, (S)this is our God in whom we have (T)hoped that (U)He would save us.
This is Yahweh in whom we have hoped;
(V)Let us rejoice and be glad in His salvation.”
10 For the hand of Yahweh will rest on this mountain,
And (W)Moab will be trodden down in his place
As straw is trodden down in the water of a manure pile.
11 And he will (X)spread out his hands in the middle of it
As a swimmer spreads out his hands to swim,
But Yahweh will (Y)lay low his lofty pride together with the trickery of his hands.
12 The (Z)unassailable fortifications of your walls He will bring down,
Lay low, and cast to the ground, even to the dust.
