以赛亚书 44
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
以色列人将蒙赐福
44 “但现在，我的仆人雅各，
我所拣选的以色列啊！你要听。
2 那创造你，从母胎里就塑造了你，
又要帮助你的耶和华这样说：
我的仆人雅各啊！
我所拣选的耶书仑啊！你不要惧怕。
3 因为我要把水浇灌干渴之处，
把河水浇灌干旱之地；
我必把我的灵浇灌你的后裔，
把我的福降给你的子孙。
4 他们要从草中生长起来，
像溪水旁的柳树。
5 这个必说：‘我是属耶和华的’；
那个也必以雅各的名称呼自己；
另一个必亲手写上‘我是属耶和华的’，
并且要以以色列的名字替自己命名。”
神是独一真神
6 耶和华以色列的王，
以色列的救赎主、万军之耶和华这样说：
“我是首先的，我是末后的；
除我以外，再没有真神。
7 谁像我呢？让他宣告，
让他述说，又在我面前陈明吧！
自从我设立古时的子民，
未来的事和将要发生的事，
让他们把它们述说出来吧！
8 你们不要惊惶，也不要惧怕。
我不是老早就说了给你们听，告诉了你们吗？
你们就是我的见证人。
除我以外，还有真神吗？
没有别的盘石；
我一个也不知道。”
制造偶像者的愚昧
9 制造偶像的人，尽都是虚空的，
他们所喜爱的，都没有益处。
他们的见证人，一无所见，
一无所知，以致他们蒙羞。
10 谁制造神像，或铸造偶像，
不想得到益处呢？
11 看哪！所有与它同伙的都必蒙羞；
工匠也不过是人罢了。
让他们都集合起来，都站立起来；
让他们都惧怕，都一同蒙羞。
12 铁匠先用工具在铁上雕刻，
然后在火炭中加工，
再用锤子把铁锤成形状，
用他有力的膀臂锤成。
他若饥饿，就没有力量；
他若不喝水，就疲乏。
13 木匠拉线，
用笔画出轮廓，
用刨子刨平，
用圆规画出模样，
做成人的形状，
有人一般的美丽，好住在庙里。
14 他为自己砍伐香柏树，
或选取榆树和橡树，
让它在树林中长起来；
他栽种松树，让雨水使它长大。
15 人可以用这树作燃料，
可以拿来生火取暖，
又可以烧着烤饼；
人竟然用它做神像敬拜，
他做了雕刻的偶像，又向它叩拜。
16 他把木头的一半放在火里燃烧；
在上面烤肉；
吃了烤肉，并且吃饱了，
就自己烤火取暖，说：
“哈哈！我暖和了，我看见火了。”
17 他用剩下来的一半做了一个神像，
就是他雕刻的偶像，
他向它俯伏，向它敬拜，
又向它祷告，说：
“求你救我，因为你是我的神。”
18 他们并不知道，也不明白；
因为耶和华闭住他们的眼睛，使他们不能看见，
塞住他们的心，使他们不能明白。
19 没有人细心思想，
也没有人有知识有聪明说：
“我把木头的一半放在火里燃烧，
我也在炭火上烘过饼，
烤过肉吃，
剩下的，我却用来做了一个可憎之物，
我要向木头叩拜吗？”
20 他所追求的只是灰尘，被迷惑了的心使他偏离正道了；
他不能救自己，也不会说：
“在我的右手中不是有个假神吗？”
耶和华救赎之恩
21 雅各和以色列啊！要记念这些话，
因为你是我的仆人。
我造了你，是要你作我的仆人；
以色列啊！你必不会被我忘记。
22 我涂抹了你的过犯，像密云消散；
我涂抹了你的罪恶，如薄云灭没，
你当归向我，因为我救赎了你。
23 诸天啊！你们要欢呼，因为耶和华作成了这事。
地的深处啊！你们要吶喊。
群山啊！你们要发声欢呼。
树林和其中所有的树啊！
你们都当这样。
因为耶和华救赎了雅各，
他要借着以色列使自己得荣耀。
24 你的救赎主，就是那在母胎中就造了你的耶和华这样说：
“我耶和华是创造万物的，
我是独自展开诸天，
铺张大地的。
25 我使说假话者的兆头失效，
使占卜者都变成愚昧人；
我使有智慧的人后退，
使他们的知识变为愚拙。
26 我使我仆人的话实现，
使我使者的谋算成就。
我对耶路撒冷说：‘你必有人居住。’
对犹大的城镇说：‘你们要再被建造起来，
至于其中的废墟，我必重建它们。’
27 我对深渊说：‘你干了吧，
我必使你的江河干涸！’
28 我对古列说：‘我的牧人；
他必成就我所喜悦的一切。’
他要对耶路撒冷说：‘你必被重建起来！’
他必对圣殿说：‘你的根基要奠定！’”

以色列蒙揀選
44 「我的僕人雅各，
我所揀選的以色列啊，
現在你要留心聽。
2 造你、使你在母胎中成形、
幫助你的耶和華說，
『我的僕人雅各，
我所揀選的耶書崙[a]啊，
不要害怕。
3 我要用水澆灌乾渴之地，
使河流滋潤乾旱之土。
我要用我的靈澆灌你的後裔，
使我的福澤臨到你的子孫。
4 他們要滋長如青草，
又如溪旁楊柳。』
5 這個說，『我屬於耶和華』，
那個說，『我是雅各的子孫』，
還有人手上寫著，『耶和華之民』，
稱自己屬於以色列。
6 「耶和華，以色列的君王和救贖主，
萬軍之耶和華說，
『我是首先的，我是末後的，
除我以外再沒有真神。
7 誰能與我相比？讓他告訴我。
自從我設立這古老的民族以來所發生的事和將要發生的事，
讓他告訴我。
8 不要恐懼，不要害怕，
我不是早已告訴過你們嗎？
你們是我的證人。
除我以外還有真神嗎？
沒有，沒有別的磐石，
一個也沒有。』」
9 製造偶像的真是無用，他們珍愛的偶像毫無價值。拜神像的人目盲眼瞎，愚昧無知，自找羞辱。 10 製造神像、雕刻無益偶像的是誰？ 11 看啊，製造神像的工匠不過是人，他們必羞愧。讓他們一起來對質吧，他們必恐懼、羞愧。 12 鐵匠把鐵塊放在炭火裡燒，用他強壯的臂膀揮動鐵錘把它打成偶像。他饑餓時就會無力，口渴時就會疲乏。 13 木匠拉線測量木料，用筆勾出形狀，用圓規畫出模樣，仿照人的樣子用鑿子做成逼真的神像，放在廟宇裡。 14 他砍伐香柏木，或從林中選取柏木和橡木。他栽種松樹，雨水使它長大。 15 這樹可以用來作燃料，他取一些木料生火取暖、烤餅，又製成神像來祭拜，雕成偶像來叩拜。 16 他用一半木頭烤肉，飽餐一頓，並用火取暖，說：「啊！我這裡有火，真暖和。」 17 他用另一半木頭造了一個神，一個偶像，向它俯伏叩拜、禱告說：「你是我的神明，求你拯救我。」 18 他們愚昧無知，因為眼睛被封住以致看不見，心竅被塞住以致不明白。 19 他們無人思想，無人明白，無人醒悟說：「我用一半木頭當柴烤餅、烤肉吃，我豈能用另一半木頭造可憎的神像？我豈能向一塊木頭叩拜？」 20 他們以灰為食，心智迷糊，走入歧途，不能自救，也不會說：「我右手拿的神像不是假的嗎？」
耶和華救贖以色列
21 「雅各啊，以色列啊，
要記住這些事，
因為你是我的僕人。
我造了你，你是我的僕人；
以色列啊，我不會忘記你。
22 我除去了你的過犯和罪惡，
使它們如雲霧消散。
歸向我吧，因為我救贖了你。」
23 諸天啊，歌唱吧！
因為耶和華成就了這事。
地的深處啊，歡呼吧！
眾山嶺和林中的樹木啊，
你們都要歌唱！
因為耶和華救贖了雅各，
在以色列彰顯了祂的榮耀。
24 在母腹中造你、救贖你的耶和華說：
「我是創造萬物的耶和華，
我獨自鋪展穹蒼，開闢大地。
25 我使假先知的預兆無法應驗，
使占卜者醜態百出；
我顛覆智者的知識，
使之愚不可及。
26 我使我僕人的話應驗，
使我使者的計劃成就。
我說耶路撒冷必有人居住，
我說猶大的城邑必重建起來，
從廢墟中重建起來。
27 我對深海說，『枯乾吧！
我要使你的河流乾涸』；
28 我說塞魯士是我的牧人，
他必完成我的旨意，
他會下令重建耶路撒冷，
降旨奠定聖殿的根基。

Isaiah 44
New International Version
Israel the Chosen
44 “But now listen, Jacob, my servant,(A)
Israel, whom I have chosen.(B)
2 This is what the Lord says—
he who made(C) you, who formed you in the womb,(D)
and who will help(E) you:
Do not be afraid,(F) Jacob, my servant,(G)
Jeshurun,[a](H) whom I have chosen.
3 For I will pour water(I) on the thirsty land,
and streams on the dry ground;(J)
I will pour out my Spirit(K) on your offspring,
and my blessing(L) on your descendants.(M)
4 They will spring up like grass(N) in a meadow,
like poplar trees(O) by flowing streams.(P)
5 Some will say, ‘I belong(Q) to the Lord’;
others will call themselves by the name of Jacob;
still others will write on their hand,(R) ‘The Lord’s,’(S)
and will take the name Israel.
The Lord, Not Idols
6 “This is what the Lord says—
Israel’s King(T) and Redeemer,(U) the Lord Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last;(V)
apart from me there is no God.(W)
7 Who then is like me?(X) Let him proclaim it.
Let him declare and lay out before me
what has happened since I established my ancient people,
and what is yet to come—
yes, let them foretell(Y) what will come.
8 Do not tremble, do not be afraid.
Did I not proclaim(Z) this and foretell it long ago?
You are my witnesses. Is there any God(AA) besides me?
No, there is no other Rock;(AB) I know not one.”
9 All who make idols(AC) are nothing,
and the things they treasure are worthless.(AD)
Those who would speak up for them are blind;(AE)
they are ignorant, to their own shame.(AF)
10 Who shapes a god and casts an idol,(AG)
which can profit nothing?(AH)
11 People who do that will be put to shame;(AI)
such craftsmen are only human beings.
Let them all come together and take their stand;
they will be brought down to terror and shame.(AJ)
12 The blacksmith(AK) takes a tool
and works with it in the coals;
he shapes an idol with hammers,
he forges it with the might of his arm.(AL)
He gets hungry and loses his strength;
he drinks no water and grows faint.(AM)
13 The carpenter(AN) measures with a line
and makes an outline with a marker;
he roughs it out with chisels
and marks it with compasses.
He shapes it in human form,(AO)
human form in all its glory,
that it may dwell in a shrine.(AP)
14 He cut down cedars,
or perhaps took a cypress or oak.
He let it grow among the trees of the forest,
or planted a pine,(AQ) and the rain made it grow.
15 It is used as fuel(AR) for burning;
some of it he takes and warms himself,
he kindles a fire and bakes bread.
But he also fashions a god and worships(AS) it;
he makes an idol and bows(AT) down to it.
16 Half of the wood he burns in the fire;
over it he prepares his meal,
he roasts his meat and eats his fill.
He also warms himself and says,
“Ah! I am warm; I see the fire.(AU)”
17 From the rest he makes a god, his idol;
he bows down to it and worships.(AV)
He prays(AW) to it and says,
“Save(AX) me! You are my god!”
18 They know nothing, they understand(AY) nothing;
their eyes(AZ) are plastered over so they cannot see,
and their minds closed so they cannot understand.
19 No one stops to think,
no one has the knowledge or understanding(BA) to say,
“Half of it I used for fuel;(BB)
I even baked bread over its coals,
I roasted meat and I ate.
Shall I make a detestable(BC) thing from what is left?
Shall I bow down to a block of wood?”(BD)
20 Such a person feeds on ashes;(BE) a deluded(BF) heart misleads him;
he cannot save himself, or say,
“Is not this thing in my right hand a lie?(BG)”
21 “Remember(BH) these things, Jacob,
for you, Israel, are my servant.(BI)
I have made you, you are my servant;(BJ)
Israel, I will not forget you.(BK)
22 I have swept away(BL) your offenses like a cloud,
your sins like the morning mist.
Return(BM) to me,
for I have redeemed(BN) you.”
23 Sing for joy,(BO) you heavens, for the Lord has done this;
shout aloud, you earth(BP) beneath.
Burst into song, you mountains,(BQ)
you forests and all your trees,(BR)
for the Lord has redeemed(BS) Jacob,
he displays his glory(BT) in Israel.
Jerusalem to Be Inhabited
I am the Lord,
the Maker of all things,
who stretches out the heavens,(BX)
who spreads out the earth(BY) by myself,
25 who foils(BZ) the signs of false prophets
and makes fools of diviners,(CA)
who overthrows the learning of the wise(CB)
and turns it into nonsense,(CC)
26 who carries out the words(CD) of his servants
and fulfills(CE) the predictions of his messengers,
who says of Jerusalem,(CF) ‘It shall be inhabited,’
of the towns of Judah, ‘They shall be rebuilt,’
and of their ruins,(CG) ‘I will restore them,’(CH)
27 who says to the watery deep, ‘Be dry,
and I will dry up(CI) your streams,’
28 who says of Cyrus,(CJ) ‘He is my shepherd
and will accomplish all that I please;
he will say of Jerusalem,(CK) “Let it be rebuilt,”
and of the temple,(CL) “Let its foundations(CM) be laid.”’

King James Version
Isaiah 44
King James Version
44 Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:
2 Thus saith the Lord that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.
3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:
4 And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.
5 One shall say, I am the Lord's; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the Lord, and surname himself by the name of Israel.
6 Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
7 And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto them.
8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
9 They that make a graven image are all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they are their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.
10 Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image that is profitable for nothing?
11 Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the workmen, they are of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; yet they shall fear, and they shall be ashamed together.
12 The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms: yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no water, and is faint.
13 The carpenter stretcheth out his rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
14 He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish it.
15 Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.
16 He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
17 And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou art my god.
18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.
19 And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten it: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?
20 He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?
21 Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou art my servant: I have formed thee; thou art my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me.
22 I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.
23 Sing, O ye heavens; for the Lord hath done it: shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel.
24 Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
25 That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
26 That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof:
27 That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
28 That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
