以賽亞書 51
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
主對錫安的安慰
51 耶和華說：「追求公義、
尋求我的人啊，聽我說。
你們要追想那磐石，
你們是從那裡被鑿出來的；
你們要追想那岩穴，
你們是從那裡被挖出來的。
2 你們要追想你們的祖先亞伯拉罕和生你們的撒拉。
我呼召亞伯拉罕的時候，
他是孤身一人，
但我賜福給他，
使他子孫眾多。
3 我必安慰錫安和錫安所有的荒場，
使曠野像伊甸園，
使沙漠變成我的園囿，
裡面有歡喜、快樂、感謝和歌頌的聲音。
4 「我的子民啊，要留心聽我的話；
我的國民啊，要側耳聽我說。
因為我必賜下訓誨，
我的公正必成為萬民的光。
5 我的公義臨近，
我的拯救已經開始，
我的臂膀要審判萬民。
眾海島都在等候我，
仰賴我的臂膀。
6 你們舉目仰望穹蒼，
俯首觀看大地吧。
穹蒼必像煙雲消散，
大地必像衣服一樣漸漸破舊，
地上的居民必像蚊蠅一樣死亡。
但我的救恩永遠長存，
我的公義永不廢除。
7 認識公義、銘記我訓誨的人啊，
聽我說。
你們不要害怕人的辱罵，
也不要畏懼他們的譭謗。
8 因為蛀蟲必吃掉他們，
像吃衣服；
蟲子必蠶食他們，如食羊毛。
但我的公義永遠長存，
我的救恩延及萬代。」
9 耶和華啊，伸出臂膀，
施展能力吧，
像在從前的世代一樣施展你的能力吧！
難道不是你砍碎了拉哈伯，
刺死了海怪嗎？
10 難道不是你使海洋和深淵乾涸，
在海中開出道路讓蒙救贖的人穿過的嗎？
11 耶和華所救贖的人必回來，
必歡唱著回到錫安，
得到永遠的福樂。
他們將歡喜快樂，
再沒有憂愁和歎息。
12 耶和華說：「安慰你們的是我，是我。
你為什麼要害怕難逃一死、
生命如草芥的世人呢？
13 難道你忘記了創造你、
鋪展穹蒼、
奠立大地根基的耶和華嗎？
難道因為試圖毀滅你的欺壓者大發怒氣，
你就整天驚恐不安嗎？
他們的怒氣如今在哪裡呢？
14 被囚的人快得釋放了，
他們不會死在牢中，
也不會缺乏食物。
15 我是你的上帝耶和華，
我翻動大海、捲起波濤，
萬軍之耶和華是我的名。
16 我把我的話傳給你，
用我的手庇護你。
我鋪展穹蒼，奠立大地的根基，
對錫安說，『你是我的子民。』」
17 耶路撒冷啊，醒來，醒來，站起來吧！你從耶和華手中的杯裡喝了祂的憤怒，喝乾了那杯使人東倒西歪的酒。
18 你生育的兒子沒有一個來引導你，
你撫養成人的眾子沒有一個來攙扶你。
19 荒涼、毀滅、饑荒、
戰禍已臨到你身上，
誰會為你哀哭呢？
誰能安慰你呢[a]？
20 你的兒子們昏倒在街頭，
好像羚羊掉進網羅，
你的上帝耶和華把祂的憤怒和責備重重地降在他們身上。
21 你這身受痛苦、並非因酒而醉的人啊，
要聽我的話。
22 你的主耶和華是為祂子民申辯的上帝，祂說：
「看啊，我已從你手中拿走那使人東倒西歪的杯和盛滿我憤怒的碗，
你必不再喝。
23 我必把這杯給苦待你的人，
他們曾對你說，『趴下，
我們好從你身上走過。』
你曾把你的背當作地面，
當作街道任人踐踏。」

Yeshayah 51
Orthodox Jewish Bible
51 Pay heed to Me, ye that pursue tzedek, ye that seek Hashem; look unto the Tzur from where ye are cut, and to the quarry from where ye were hewn.
2 Look unto Avraham Avichem, and unto Sarah that gave birth to you; for I called him as one alone, and put a brocha on him, and made him many.
3 For Hashem shall comfort Tziyon; He will comfort all her ruins; and He will make her midbar like Eden, and her ruins like the Gan (Garden) of Hashem; sasson and simchah shall be found therein, todah, and the kol zimrah (the sound of singing).
4 Pay heed unto Me, O My people; and give ear unto Me, O My Nation; for torah [42:4] shall go forth from Me, and I will set at rest [establish] My mishpat as Ohr Amim (Light for the Nations).
5 My tzedek is near; My Salvation is gone forth, and Mine zero’a shall judge the Ammim; the iyim shall wait upon Me, and on Mine zero’a [Moshiach; See 53:1] shall they trust.
6 Lift up your eyes to Shomayim, and look upon ha’aretz beneath; for Shomayim shall vanish like ashan (smoke), and ha’aretz shall wear out like a beged, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner; but My Yeshuah (Salvation) shall be l’olam, and My tzedakah shall not be dismayed.
7 Pay heed unto Me, ye that know tzedek, Am torati velibam (the People with My torah in their heart); fear ye not the cherpat enosh (the reproach, reviling of man) neither be ye afraid of their giddufot (insults, scorn).
8 For the ahsh (moth) shall eat them up like a beged, and the worm shall eat them like wool; but My tzedakah shall be l’olahm, and My Yeshuah (Salvation) l’odor dorim (from generation to generation).
9 Awake, awake, clothe thyself with oz, O zero’a Hashem [Moshiach; see Isaiah 53:1]; awake, as in the yemei kedem, in the dorot olamim. Art thou not it that hath cut Rachav to pieces, and pierced Tannin [See 27:1].
10 Art thou not the One Who hath dried the yam, the waters of the tehom rabbah; that hath made the depths of the yam a derech for the ge’ulim (redeemed ones) to cross over?
11 Therefore the Redeemed of Hashem shall return, and come with singing unto Tziyon; and simchat olam shall be upon their rosh; they shall obtain sasson and simchah; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
12 I, even I, am He that comforteth you. Who art thou, that thou shouldest fear enosh that shall die, and ben adam which shall be made as khatzir (grass);
13 And forgettest Hashem Osehcha [thy Maker], that hath stretched out Shomayim, and laid the foundations of Eretz; and thou art terrified tamid (constantly), kol hayom, because of the fury of the oppressor when he is ready to destroy? And where is the fury of the oppressor?
14 The tzo’eh (the one stooped [in the Golus]) hasteneth that he may be set free, and that he should not die in shachat, nor that his lechem should fail.
15 But I am Hashem Eloheicha Who stirs up the yam, whose waves roar; Hashem Tzva’os Shmo.
16 And I put My words in thy mouth, and I have covered thee in the tzel (shadow) of Mine yad, that I may set Shomayim in place, and lay the foundations of Eretz, and say unto Tziyon, Thou art My people.
17 Awake, awake, rise up, O Yerushalayim, which hast drunk at the Yad Hashem the kos of His fury; thou hast drunk to the dregs and drained dry the Kos HaTarelah (Cup of Reeling).
18 Among kol banim whom she hath given birth to, there is none to guide her; neither is there any that taketh her by the yad of kol banim that she hath reared.
19 These two are come upon thee. Who shall grieve for thee? Shod and shever and ra’av (famine) and cherev; with whom shall I console thee?
20 Thy banim have fainted, they lie at the rosh of all the streets, like a wild bull in a net; they are full of the chamat Hashem, the rebuke of thy G-d.
21 Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted one, thou drunken one, but not with yayin;
22 Thus saith thy L-rd Hashem, and thy G-d that pleadeth the cause of His people, Hinei, I have taken out of thine yad the Kos HaTarelah (Cup of Reeling, the Cup that causes reeling) even the dregs of the cup of My fury; thou shalt no more drink it again;
23 But I will put it into the yad of them that torment thee; which have said to thy nefesh, Bow down, that we may walk over; and thou hast laid thy gev (back) like the ground and like the street, to them that walked over.
