葡萄园之歌

27 到那日,耶和华要施用他锐利、巨大和有力的刀,惩罚鳄鱼,就是那快行的蛇;惩罚鳄鱼,就是那曲行的蛇;并且要杀海中的大龙。

到那日,

有个出酒的葡萄园,你们必指着这园歌唱说:

“我耶和华是看守葡萄园的;

我时刻浇灌着它,

并且为免有人毁坏它,

我日夜都看守着。

我再没有忿怒,

若荆棘和蒺藜与我交战,

我就上前践踏它们,把它们全部焚毁。

除非他们抓住我作他们的避难所,

与我和好,

与我和好。”

在将来的日子里,雅各要扎根,

以色列要发芽开花,

他们的果实必遍布地面。

以色列民受罚

耶和华击打以色列人,岂像击打那些击打他们的呢?

主杀戮以色列人,岂像杀戮那些杀戮他们的呢?

不,你只是渐渐地,借着他们被掳与他们相争;

在吹东风的日子,就用暴风把他们逐去。

藉此,雅各的罪孽才得赦免;

他的罪过得以除掉的条件全都在于此,

就是他叫祭坛上所有的石头都变为破碎的灰石,

使亚舍拉和香坛不再竖立。

10 坚固的城变为凄凉,

成了被撇下、被放弃的居所,像旷野一样;

牛犊必在那里吃草,

在那里躺卧,并且吃尽那里的树枝。

以色列民回归

11 枝条枯干了,就必被折断;

妇女必来,拿去生火,

因为这人民愚昧无知,

所以他们的创造主不怜悯他们,

那造成他们的,不向他们施恩。

12 到那日,耶和华要从幼发拉底的溪流,直到埃及小河,收集他的谷物;以色列人哪!你们必一个一个被捡拾回来。 13 到那日,必有大号角吹响,那些在亚述地快要灭亡的,以及那些被赶散在埃及地的,都要前来,在耶路撒冷的圣山上敬拜耶和华。

Israel Will Be Restored

27 In that day the Lord with His severe sword, great and strong,
Will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent,
(A)Leviathan that twisted serpent;
And He will slay (B)the reptile that is in the sea.

The Restoration of Israel

In that day (C)sing to her,
(D)“A vineyard of [a]red wine!
(E)I, the Lord, keep it,
I water it every moment;
Lest any hurt it,
I keep it night and day.
Fury is not in Me.
Who would set (F)briers and thorns
Against Me in battle?
I would go through them,
I would burn them together.
Or let him take hold (G)of My strength,
That he may (H)make peace with Me;
And he shall make peace with Me.”

Those who come He shall cause (I)to take root in Jacob;
Israel shall blossom and bud,
And fill the face of the world with fruit.

(J)Has He struck [b]Israel as He struck those who struck him?
Or has He been slain according to the slaughter of those who were slain by Him?
(K)In measure, by sending it away,
You contended with it.
(L)He removes it by His rough wind
In the day of the east wind.
Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob will be covered;
And this is all the fruit of taking away his sin:
When he makes all the stones of the altar
Like chalkstones that are beaten to dust,
[c]Wooden images and incense altars shall not stand.

10 Yet the fortified city will be (M)desolate,
The habitation forsaken and left like a wilderness;
There the calf will feed, and there it will lie down
And consume its branches.
11 When its boughs are withered, they will be broken off;
The women come and set them on fire.
For (N)it is a people of no understanding;
Therefore He who made them will (O)not have mercy on them,
And (P)He who formed them will show them no favor.

12 And it shall come to pass in that day
That the Lord will thresh,
From the channel of [d]the River to the Brook of Egypt;
And you will be (Q)gathered one by one,
O you children of Israel.

13 (R)So it shall be in that day:
(S)The great trumpet will be blown;
They will come, who are about to perish in the land of Assyria,
And they who are outcasts in the land of (T)Egypt,
And shall (U)worship the Lord in the holy mount at Jerusalem.

27 In that day the Lord with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.

In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine.

I the Lord do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.

Fury is not in me: who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle? I would go through them, I would burn them together.

Or let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me.

He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.

Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?

In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.

By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves and images shall not stand up.

10 Yet the defenced city shall be desolate, and the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.

11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off: the women come, and set them on fire: for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour.

12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.

13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the Lord in the holy mount at Jerusalem.

The Redemption of Israel

27 In that day the Lord with his hard and great and strong (A)sword will punish (B)Leviathan the fleeing serpent, (C)Leviathan the twisting serpent, and he will slay (D)the dragon that is in the sea.

In that day,
(E)“A pleasant vineyard,[a] (F)sing of it!
    I, the Lord, am its keeper;
    every moment I water it.
    Lest anyone punish it,
I keep it night and day;
    I have no wrath.
(G)Would that I had thorns and briers to battle!
    I would march against them,
    I would burn them up together.
Or let them lay hold of my protection,
    let them make peace with me,
    let them make peace with me.”

(H)In days to come[b] Jacob shall take root,
    Israel shall blossom and put forth shoots
    and fill the whole world with fruit.

(I)Has he struck them (J)as he struck those who struck them?
    Or have they been slain (K)as their slayers were slain?
(L)Measure by measure,[c] by exile you contended with them;
    (M)he removed them with his fierce breath[d] in the day of the east wind.
Therefore by this (N)the guilt of Jacob will be atoned for,
    and this will be the full fruit of the removal of his sin:[e]
(O)when he makes all the stones of the altars
    like chalkstones crushed to pieces,
    no (P)Asherim or incense altars will remain standing.
10 (Q)For the fortified city is solitary,
    a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness;
there the calf grazes;
    there it lies down and strips its branches.
11 When its boughs are dry, they are broken;
    women come and make a fire of them.
(R)For this is a people without discernment;
    therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them;
    he who formed them will show them no favor.

12 In that day (S)from the river Euphrates[f] to the Brook of Egypt the Lord will thresh out the grain, and you will be gleaned one by one, O people of Israel. 13 And in that day (T)a great trumpet will be blown, (U)and those who were lost in the land of Assyria and those who were driven out to the land of Egypt (V)will come and worship the Lord on the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
