以赛亚书 33
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
虐人者必被虐
33 祸哉！你这毁灭人的，自己倒不被毁灭；行事诡诈的，人倒不以诡诈待你。你毁灭罢休了，自己必被毁灭；你行完了诡诈，人必以诡诈待你。 2 耶和华啊，求你施恩于我们，我们等候你！求你每早晨做我们的膀臂，遭难的时候为我们的拯救。 3 喧嚷的响声一发，众民奔逃；你一兴起，列国四散。 4 你们所掳的必被敛尽，好像蚂蚱吃[a]尽禾稼；人要蹦在其上，好像蝗虫一样。 5 耶和华被尊崇，因他居在高处，他以公平、公义充满锡安。 6 你一生一世必得安稳，有丰盛的救恩并智慧和知识，你以敬畏耶和华为至宝。
7 看哪，他们的豪杰在外头哀号，求和的使臣痛痛哭泣。 8 大路荒凉，行人止息；敌人背约，藐视城邑，不顾人民。 9 地上悲哀衰残，黎巴嫩羞愧枯干，沙仑像旷野，巴珊和迦密的树林凋残。 10 耶和华说：“现在我要起来，我要兴起，我要勃然而兴！ 11 你们要怀的是糠秕，要生的是碎秸，你们的气就是吞灭自己的火。 12 列邦必像已烧的石灰，像已割的荆棘，在火中焚烧。
行义为善必获多恩
13 “你们远方的人，当听我所行的！你们近处的人，当承认我的大能！” 14 锡安中的罪人都惧怕，不敬虔的人被战兢抓住：“我们中间谁能与吞灭的火同住？我们中间谁能与永火同住呢？” 15 行事公义，说话正直，憎恶欺压的财利，摆手不受贿赂，塞耳不听流血的话，闭眼不看邪恶事的， 16 他必居高处，他的保障是磐石的坚垒，他的粮必不缺乏[b]，他的水必不断绝。
17 你的眼必见王的荣美，必见辽阔之地。 18 你的心必思想那惊吓的事，自问说：“记数目的在哪里呢？平贡银的在哪里呢？数戍楼的在哪里呢？” 19 你必不见那强暴的民，就是说话深奥你不能明白，言语呢喃你不能懂得的。 20 你要看锡安我们守圣节的城：你的眼必见耶路撒冷为安静的居所，为不挪移的帐幕，橛子永不拔出，绳索一根也不折断。 21 在那里，耶和华必显威严与我们同在，当做江河宽阔之地。其中必没有荡桨摇橹的船来往，也没有威武的船经过。 22 因为耶和华是审判我们的，耶和华是给我们设律法的，耶和华是我们的王，他必拯救我们。 23 你的绳索松开，不能栽稳桅杆，也不能扬起篷来；那时许多掳来的物被分了，瘸腿的把掠物夺去了。 24 城内居民必不说“我病了”，其中居住的百姓，罪孽都赦免了。

Isaiah 33
New King James Version
A Prayer in Deep Distress
33 Woe to you (A)who plunder, though you have not been plundered;
And you who deal treacherously, though they have not dealt treacherously with you!
(B)When you cease plundering,
You will be (C)plundered;
When you make an end of dealing treacherously,
They will deal treacherously with you.
2 O Lord, be gracious to us;
(D)We have waited for You.
Be [a]their arm every morning,
Our salvation also in the time of trouble.
3 At the noise of the tumult the people (E)shall flee;
When You lift Yourself up, the nations shall be scattered;
4 And Your plunder shall be gathered
Like the gathering of the caterpillar;
As the running to and fro of locusts,
He shall run upon them.
5 (F)The Lord is exalted, for He dwells on high;
He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times,
And the strength of salvation;
The fear of the Lord is His treasure.
7 Surely their valiant ones shall cry outside,
(G)The ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
8 (H)The highways lie waste,
The traveling man ceases.
(I)He has broken the covenant,
[b]He has despised the [c]cities,
He regards no man.
9 (J)The earth mourns and languishes,
Lebanon is shamed and shriveled;
Sharon is like a wilderness,
And Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
Impending Judgment on Zion
10 “Now(K) I will rise,” says the Lord;
“Now I will be exalted,
Now I will lift Myself up.
11 (L)You shall conceive chaff,
You shall bring forth stubble;
Your breath, as fire, shall devour you.
12 And the people shall be like the burnings of lime;
(M)Like thorns cut up they shall be burned in the fire.
13 Hear, (N)you who are afar off, what I have done;
And you who are near, acknowledge My might.”
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid;
Fearfulness has seized the hypocrites:
“Who among us shall dwell with the devouring (O)fire?
Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?”
15 He who (P)walks righteously and speaks uprightly,
He who despises the gain of oppressions,
Who gestures with his hands, refusing bribes,
Who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed,
And (Q)shuts his eyes from seeing evil:
16 He will dwell on [d]high;
His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks;
Bread will be given him,
His water will be sure.
The Land of the Majestic King
17 Your eyes will see the King in His (R)beauty;
They will see the land that is very far off.
18 Your heart will meditate on terror:
(S)“Where is the scribe?
Where is he who weighs?
Where is he who counts the towers?”
19 (T)You will not see a fierce people,
(U)A people of obscure speech, beyond perception,
Of a [e]stammering tongue that you cannot understand.
20 (V)Look upon Zion, the city of our appointed feasts;
Your eyes will see (W)Jerusalem, a quiet home,
A tabernacle that will not be taken down;
(X)Not one of (Y)its stakes will ever be removed,
Nor will any of its cords be broken.
21 But there the majestic Lord will be for us
A place of broad rivers and streams,
In which no [f]galley with oars will sail,
Nor majestic ships pass by
22 (For the Lord is our (Z)Judge,
The Lord is our (AA)Lawgiver,
(AB)The Lord is our King;
He will save us);
23 Your tackle is loosed,
They could not strengthen their mast,
They could not spread the sail.
Then the prey of great plunder is divided;
The lame take the prey.
24 And the inhabitant will not say, “I am sick”;
(AC)The people who dwell in it will be forgiven their iniquity.
