Isaiah 25
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
25 O Lord, thou art my God, I will exalt thee, and give glory to thy name: for thou hast done wonderful things, thy designs of old faithful, amen.
2 For thou hast reduced the city to a heap, the strong city to ruin, the house of strangers, to be no city, and to be no more built up for ever.
3 Therefore shall a strong people praise thee, the city of mighty nations shall fear thee.
4 Because thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress: a refuge from the whirlwind, a shadow from the heat. For the blast of the mighty is like a whirlwind beating against a wall.
5 Thou shalt bring down the tumult of strangers, as heat in thirst: and as with heat under a burning cloud, thou shalt make the branch of the mighty to wither away.
6 And the Lord of hosts shall make unto all people in this mountain, a feast of fat things, a feast of wine, of fat things full of marrow, of wine purified from the lees.
7 And he shall destroy in this mountain the face of the bond with which all people were tied, and the web that he began over all nations.
8 He shall cast death down headlong for ever: and the Lord God shall wipe away tears from every face, and the reproach of his people he shall take away from off the whole earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.
9 And they shall say in that day: Lo, this is our God, we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the Lord, we have patiently waited for him, we shall rejoice and be joyfull in his salvation.
10 For the hand of the Lord shall rest in this mountain: and Moab shall be trodden down under him, as straw is broken in pieces with the wain.
11 And he shall stretch forth his hands under him, as he that swimmeth stretcheth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down his glory with the dashing of his hands.
12 And the bulwarks of thy high walls shall fall, and be brought low, and shall be pulled down to the ground, even to the dust.
Isaiah 25
Wycliffe Bible
25 Lord, thou art my God, I shall enhance thee, and I shall acknowledge to thy name; for thou hast done marvels, thine eld faithful thoughts. Amen. (Lord, thou art my God, I shall exalt thee, and I shall praise thy name; for thou hast done marvellous things, thou art faithful to thy thoughts of old. Amen.)
2 For thou hast set the city into a burial, a strong city into falling, the house of aliens (yea, the house of foreigners, or of strangers), (so) that it be not a city, and be not builded (again) without end.
3 For this thing a strong people shall praise thee, the city of strong folks shall dread thee. (For this thing strong people shall praise thee, and the cities of strong nations shall fear thee.)
4 For thou art made strength to a poor man, strength to a needy man in his tribulation, hope from [the] whirlwind, a shadowing place from heat; for why the spirit of strong men is as a whirlwind hurling the wall. (For thou art made strength to the poor, strength to the needy in their tribulation, hope from the whirlwind, a place of shadow, or of shade, from the heat; for the blast of the strong, or of the ruthless, is like a whirlwind hurtling against the wall.)
5 As by heat in thirst, thou shalt make meek the noise of aliens; and as by heat under a cloud burning, thou shalt make the scions of strong men to fade. (Like with the heat in thirst, thou shalt make the noise of the foreigners to be meeked, or subdued; and like with the heat under a burning cloud, thou shalt make the offspring of the strong, or of the ruthless, to fade away, or to die.)
6 And the Lord of hosts shall make in this hill to all peoples the feast of fat things, the feast of vintage of fat things full of marrow, of vintage well-refined. (And on this hill the Lord of hosts shall make the feast of fat things for all peoples, the feast of the vintage of fat things full of marrow, yea, of well-refined wine.)
7 And he shall cast down in this hill the face of [the] bond, bound (al)together on all peoples, and the web which he weaved on all nations. (And he shall throw down on this hill the covering cast over all the peoples, and the web which he weaved upon all the nations.)
8 And he shall cast down death [into] without end, and the Lord God shall do away each tear from each face; and he shall do away the shame of his people from each land, for the Lord spake. (Yea, he shall throw down death forever, and the Lord God shall do away every tear from every face; and he shall do away the shame of his people from every land, for the Lord spoke.)
9 And they shall say in that day, Lo! this is our God; we abided him, and he shall save us; this is the Lord; we suffered him, and we shall make full out joy, and shall be glad in his health. (And they shall say on that day, Lo! this is our God; we have waited for him, for he shall save us; this is the Lord; we have waited for him, and now we shall rejoice, and shall be happy for his deliverance.)
10 For why the hand of the Lord shall rest in this hill, and Moab shall be threshed under him, as chaffs be stamped in a wain. (For the hand of the Lord shall rest upon this mountain, and Moab shall be threshed under him, like chaff is stamped in a wagon.)
11 And he shall stretch forth his hands under him, as a swimmer stretcheth forth to swim; and he shall make low the glory of him with [the] hurtling down of his hands.
12 And the strongholds of thine high walls shall fall down, and shall be made low, and shall be drawn down to the earth, till to the dust. (And thy fortresses with high walls shall fall down, and shall be made low, and shall be drawn down to the ground, unto the dust.)
以 賽 亞 書 25
Chinese Union Version (Traditional)
25 耶 和 華 啊 , 你 是 我 的 神 ; 我 要 尊 崇 你 , 我 要 稱 讚 你 的 名 。 因 為 你 以 忠 信 誠 實 行 過 奇 妙 的 事 , 成 就 你 古 時 所 定 的 。
2 你 使 城 變 為 亂 堆 , 使 堅 固 城 變 為 荒 場 , 使 外 邦 人 宮 殿 的 城 不 再 為 城 , 永 遠 不 再 建 造 。
3 所 以 , 剛 強 的 民 必 榮 耀 你 ; 強 暴 之 國 的 城 必 敬 畏 你 。
4 因 為 當 強 暴 人 催 逼 人 的 時 候 , 如 同 暴 風 直 吹 牆 壁 , 你 就 作 貧 窮 人 的 保 障 , 作 困 乏 人 急 難 中 的 保 障 , 作 躲 暴 風 之 處 , 作 避 炎 熱 的 陰 涼 。
5 你 要 壓 制 外 邦 人 的 喧 嘩 , 好 像 乾 燥 地 的 熱 氣 下 落 ; 禁 止 強 暴 人 的 凱 歌 , 好 像 熱 氣 被 雲 影 消 化 。
6 在 這 山 上 , 萬 軍 之 耶 和 華 必 為 萬 民 用 肥 甘 設 擺 筵 席 , 用 陳 酒 和 滿 髓 的 肥 甘 , 並 澄 清 的 陳 酒 , 設 擺 筵 席 。
7 他 又 必 在 這 山 上 除 滅 遮 蓋 萬 民 之 物 和 遮 蔽 萬 國 蒙 臉 的 帕 子 。
8 他 已 經 吞 滅 死 亡 直 到 永 遠 。 主 耶 和 華 必 擦 去 各 人 臉 上 的 眼 淚 , 又 除 掉 普 天 下 他 百 姓 的 羞 辱 , 因 為 這 是 耶 和 華 說 的 。
9 到 那 日 , 人 必 說 : 看 哪 , 這 是 我 們 的 神 ; 我 們 素 來 等 候 他 , 他 必 拯 救 我 們 。 這 是 耶 和 華 , 我 們 素 來 等 候 他 , 我 們 必 因 他 的 救 恩 歡 喜 快 樂 。
10 耶 和 華 的 手 必 按 在 這 山 上 ; 摩 押 人 在 所 居 之 地 必 被 踐 踏 , 好 像 乾 草 被 踐 踏 在 糞 池 的 水 中 。
11 他 必 在 其 中 伸 開 手 , 好 像 洑 水 的 伸 開 手 洑 水 一 樣 ; 但 耶 和 華 必 使 他 的 驕 傲 和 他 手 所 行 的 詭 計 一 併 敗 落 。
12 耶 和 華 使 你 城 上 的 堅 固 高 臺 傾 倒 , 拆 平 , 直 到 塵 埃 。
Isaiah 25
New International Version
Praise to the Lord
25 Lord, you are my God;(A)
I will exalt you and praise your name,(B)
for in perfect faithfulness(C)
you have done wonderful things,(D)
things planned(E) long ago.
2 You have made the city a heap of rubble,(F)
the fortified(G) town a ruin,(H)
the foreigners’ stronghold(I) a city no more;
it will never be rebuilt.(J)
3 Therefore strong peoples will honor you;(K)
cities of ruthless(L) nations will revere you.
4 You have been a refuge(M) for the poor,(N)
a refuge for the needy(O) in their distress,
a shelter from the storm(P)
and a shade from the heat.
For the breath of the ruthless(Q)
is like a storm driving against a wall
5 and like the heat of the desert.
You silence(R) the uproar of foreigners;(S)
as heat is reduced by the shadow of a cloud,
so the song of the ruthless(T) is stilled.
6 On this mountain(U) the Lord Almighty will prepare
a feast(V) of rich food for all peoples,
a banquet of aged wine—
the best of meats and the finest of wines.(W)
7 On this mountain he will destroy
the shroud(X) that enfolds all peoples,(Y)
the sheet that covers all nations;
8 he will swallow up death(Z) forever.
The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears(AA)
from all faces;
he will remove his people’s disgrace(AB)
from all the earth.
The Lord has spoken.(AC)
9 In that day(AD) they will say,
“Surely this is our God;(AE)
we trusted(AF) in him, and he saved(AG) us.
This is the Lord, we trusted in him;
let us rejoice(AH) and be glad in his salvation.”(AI)
10 The hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain;(AJ)
but Moab(AK) will be trampled in their land
as straw is trampled down in the manure.
11 They will stretch out their hands in it,
as swimmers stretch out their hands to swim.
God will bring down(AL) their pride(AM)
despite the cleverness[a] of their hands.
12 He will bring down your high fortified walls(AN)
and lay them low;(AO)
he will bring them down to the ground,
to the very dust.
