耶和华膏居鲁士统辖列国

45 “我耶和华所膏的居鲁士,我搀扶他的右手,使列国降伏在他面前。我也要放松列王的腰带,使城门在他面前敞开,不得关闭。我对他如此说: ‘我必在你前面行,修平崎岖之地;我必打破铜门,砍断铁闩。 我要将暗中的宝物和隐密的财宝赐给你,使你知道提名召你的,就是我耶和华以色列的神。 因我仆人雅各,我所拣选以色列的缘故,我就提名召你,你虽不认识我,我也加给你名号。

耶和华外别无他神

‘我是耶和华,在我以外并没有别神,除了我以外再没有神。你虽不认识我,我必给你束腰, 从日出之地到日落之处,使人都知道除了我以外,没有别神。我是耶和华,在我以外并没有别神。 我造光,又造暗;我施平安,又降灾祸。造做这一切的,是我耶和华。’

“诸天哪,自上而滴,穹苍降下公义!地面开裂,产出救恩,使公义一同发生!这都是我耶和华所造的。

“祸哉,那与造他的主争论的!他不过是地上瓦片中的一块瓦片。泥土岂可对抟弄他的说‘你做什么’呢?所做的物岂可说‘你没有手’呢? 10 祸哉,那对父亲说‘你生的是什么呢’,或对母亲[a]说‘你产的是什么呢’!”

11 耶和华以色列的圣者,就是造就以色列的,如此说:“将来的事你们可以问我,至于我的众子,并我手的工作,你们可以求我命定[b] 12 我造地,又造人在地上;我亲手铺张诸天,天上万象也是我所命定的。 13 我凭公义兴起居鲁士[c],又要修直他一切道路。他必建造我的城,释放我被掳的民,不是为工价,也不是为赏赐。”这是万军之耶和华说的。

14 耶和华如此说:“埃及劳碌得来的和古实的货物必归你,身量高大的西巴人必投降你,也要属你。他们必戴着锁链过来随从你,又向你下拜祈求你说:‘神真在你们中间,此外再没有别神,再没有别的神。’” 15 救主以色列的神啊,你实在是自隐的神! 16 凡制造偶像的,都必抱愧蒙羞,都要一同归于惭愧。 17 唯有以色列必蒙耶和华的拯救,得永远的救恩。你们必不蒙羞,也不抱愧,直到永世无尽。

18 创造诸天的耶和华,制造、成全大地的神——他创造、坚定大地,并非使地荒凉,是要给人居住——他如此说:“我是耶和华,再没有别神。 19 我没有在隐密黑暗之地说话,我没有对雅各的后裔说‘你们寻求我是徒然的’。我耶和华所讲的是公义,所说的是正直。

神乃独一救主

20 “你们从列国逃脱的人,要一同聚集前来。那些抬着雕刻木偶,祷告不能救人之神的,毫无知识。 21 你们要述说陈明你们的理,让他们彼此商议。谁从古时指明,谁从上古述说?不是我耶和华吗?除了我以外,再没有神。我是公义的神,又是救主,除了我以外,再没有别神。 22 地极的人都当仰望我,就必得救,因为我是神,再没有别神。 23 我指着自己起誓,我口所出的话是凭公义,并不返回:万膝必向我跪拜,万口必凭我起誓。 24 人论我说:‘公义、能力唯独在乎耶和华!人都必归向他,凡向他发怒的,必致蒙羞。 25 以色列的后裔都必因耶和华得称为义,并要夸耀。’”

耶和华使塞鲁士兴起

45 “我耶和华膏立塞鲁士为王,
我牵着他的右手帮助他征服列国、降服列王;
我使城门洞开,
让他通行无阻。
我对他说,
‘我要走在你前面,
为你铲平高山,
打破铜门,
砍断铁闩。
我要把隐藏的宝物和秘密收藏的财富赐给你,
好叫你知道点名呼召你的是我——以色列的上帝耶和华。
虽然你不认识我,
但为了我的仆人雅各,
我所拣选的以色列,
我还是点名呼召你,
赐给你一个尊贵的名号。
我是独一无二的耶和华,
除我以外再没有上帝。
虽然你不认识我,
但我还是赐你力量。
这样,从日出之地到日落之处,
普天下都知道除我以外,
别无他神,
我耶和华独一无二。
我造光明,也造黑暗;
赐平安,也降灾祸。
这一切都是我耶和华的作为。

“‘我使诸天降下甘露,
云彩降下公义,
使大地裂开,
萌生拯救和公义,
这是我耶和华的作为。’

“跟造物主争辩的人有祸了!
他不过是世上瓦器中的一件。
陶泥怎能对陶匠说,‘你在做什么’?
受造之物怎能说,‘造我的没手艺’?
10 对父亲说‘你生的是什么’
或对母亲说‘你产的是什么’的人有祸了!”
11 耶和华——以色列的圣者和创造主说:
“你们就我子民将来的事质问我吗?
你们发号施令要告诉我如何做吗?
12 是我造了大地,又造了地上的人;
我亲手铺展穹苍,
布置天上的万象。
13 我凭公义使塞鲁士王兴起,
我要让他的道路畅通无阻。
他必重建我的城,
释放我被掳的子民,
不是为了得报酬或奖赏。
这是万军之耶和华说的。”

14 耶和华说:
“埃及的出产和古实的货物必归你所有。
身材高大的西巴人必来归附你,
戴着锁链跟在你身后。
他们要向你下拜,
在你面前恳求,
并说,‘上帝真的与你们同在,
祂独一无二,除祂以外,
别无他神。’”
15 救主——以色列的上帝啊,
你真是一位隐藏自己的上帝。
16 制造偶像的都必蒙羞受辱,
一同惭愧。
17 但以色列必蒙耶和华拯救,
享受永远的救恩,
永远不会再蒙羞受辱。

18 创造诸天、塑造和建立大地给人居住、没有使地荒凉的耶和华上帝说:
“我是耶和华,是独一无二的上帝。
19 我没有在隐秘处暗暗地说话,
我没有对雅各的后裔说,
‘你们找不到我。’
我耶和华宣扬真理,
传讲正义。

20 “列国的流亡者啊,
你们要聚集到这里来。
那些抬着木头神像、
向不能救人的神明祷告的人真愚昧!
21 你们要彼此商议,
陈明你们的理由。
谁早已预言过今天发生的事?
谁很久以前就说过这些预言?
难道不是我耶和华吗?
除我以外别无他神。
我是公义的上帝,我是救主,
除我以外别无他神。
22 普世的人啊,归向我吧,
你们必蒙拯救,
因为我是独一无二的上帝。
23 我凭自己起誓,
我口中的话真实可靠,绝不更改,
‘万膝必向我跪拜,
万口必起誓效忠于我。’
24 他们必说,
‘只有耶和华那里才有公义和能力。’”
向祂发怒的必在祂面前蒙羞。
25 以色列的后裔必被耶和华称为义人,得到荣耀。

45 Thus saith the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;

I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:

And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.

For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.

I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:

That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else.

I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.

Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the Lord have created it.

Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

10 Woe unto him that saith unto his father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?

11 Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.

12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.

13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the Lord of hosts.

14 Thus saith the Lord, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, saying, Surely God is in thee; and there is none else, there is no God.

15 Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.

16 They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to confusion together that are makers of idols.

17 But Israel shall be saved in the Lord with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.

18 For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord; and there is none else.

19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.

21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the Lord? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.

22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

24 Surely, shall one say, in the Lord have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.

25 In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
