Isaiah 52
Common English Bible
Awake, holy Zion
52 Awake, awake,
put on your strength, Zion!
Put on your splendid clothing,
Jerusalem, you holy city;
for the uncircumcised and unclean
will no longer come into you.
2 Shake the dust off yourself;
rise up; sit enthroned, Jerusalem.
Loose the bonds from your neck,
captive Daughter Zion!
3 The Lord proclaims:
You were sold for nothing,
and you will be redeemed without money.
4 The Lord God proclaims:
Long ago my people went down
to reside in Egypt.
Moreover, Assyria has oppressed them without cause.
5 And now what have I here? says the Lord.
My people are taken away for nothing.
Their rulers wail, says the Lord,
and continually all day long my name is despised.
6 Therefore, my people will know my name on that day;
I’m the one who promises it; I’m here.
Your God rules
7 How beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of a messenger
who proclaims peace,
who brings good news,
who proclaims salvation,
who says to Zion, “Your God rules!”
8 Listen! Your lookouts lift their voice;
they sing out together!
Right before their eyes they see the Lord returning to Zion.
9 Break into song together, you ruins of Jerusalem!
The Lord has comforted his people and has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The Lord has bared his holy arm in view of all the nations;
all the ends of the earth have seen our God’s victory.
11 Depart! Depart! Go out from there!
Unclean! Don’t touch!
Get out of that place; purify yourselves,
carriers of the Lord’s equipment!
12 You won’t go out in a rush,
nor will you run away,
because the one going before you is the Lord;
your rear guard is the God of Israel.
Suffering servant
13 Look, my servant will succeed.
He will be exalted and lifted very high.
14 Just as many were appalled by you,
he too appeared disfigured, inhuman,
his appearance unlike that of mortals.
15 But he will astonish[a] many nations.
Kings will be silenced because of him,
because they will see what they haven’t seen before;
what they haven’t heard before, they will ponder.

New King James Version
Isaiah 52
New King James Version
God Redeems Jerusalem
52 Awake, awake!
Put on your strength, O Zion;
Put on your beautiful garments,
O Jerusalem, the holy city!
For the uncircumcised (A)and the unclean
Shall no longer come to you.
2 (B)Shake yourself from the dust, arise;
Sit down, O Jerusalem!
(C)Loose yourself from the bonds of your neck,
O captive daughter of Zion!
3 For thus says the Lord:
4 For thus says the Lord God:
“My people went down at first
Into (F)Egypt to [a]dwell there;
Then the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
5 Now therefore, what have I here,” says the Lord,
“That My people are taken away for nothing?
Those who rule over them
[b]Make them wail,” says the Lord,
“And My name is (G)blasphemed continually every day.
6 Therefore My people shall know My name;
Therefore they shall know in that day
That I am He who speaks:
‘Behold, it is I.’ ”
7 (H)How beautiful upon the mountains
Are the feet of him who brings good news,
Who proclaims peace,
Who brings glad tidings of good things,
Who proclaims salvation,
Who says to Zion,
(I)“Your God reigns!”
8 Your watchmen shall lift up their voices,
With their voices they shall sing together;
For they shall see eye to eye
When the Lord brings back Zion.
9 Break forth into joy, sing together,
You waste places of Jerusalem!
For the Lord has comforted His people,
He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 (J)The Lord has [c]made bare His holy arm
In the eyes of (K)all the nations;
And all the ends of the earth shall see
The salvation of our God.
11 (L)Depart! Depart! Go out from there,
Touch no unclean thing;
Go out from the midst of her,
(M)Be clean,
You who bear the vessels of the Lord.
12 For (N)you shall not go out with haste,
Nor go by flight;
(O)For the Lord will go before you,
(P)And the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
The Sin-Bearing Servant
13 Behold, (Q)My Servant shall [d]deal prudently;
(R)He shall be exalted and [e]extolled and be very high.
14 Just as many were astonished at you,
So His (S)visage[f] was marred more than any man,
And His form more than the sons of men;
15 (T)So shall He [g]sprinkle many nations.
Kings shall shut their mouths at Him;
For (U)what had not been told them they shall see,
And what they had not heard they shall consider.

以赛亚书 52
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
以赛亚书 52
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
神必拯救耶路撒冷
52 錫安哪！你要醒來；
醒來，披上你的力量。
聖城耶路撒冷啊！
要穿上你華美的衣服。
因為未受割禮的和不潔淨的人，
都再不得進到你那裡去。
2 耶路撒冷啊！抖下塵土，
起來，坐在位上吧！
錫安被擄的居民（“居民”原文作“女子”）哪！
解開你頸項上的鎖鍊。
3 耶和華這樣說：
“你們被賣是毫無代價的，
你們被贖回也必不用銀子。”
4 主耶和華這樣說：
“我的子民先前曾下到埃及，在那裡寄居；
後來有亞述人無緣無故地欺壓了他們。
5 現在我在這裡作甚麼呢？”耶和華說：
“我的子民毫無代價被取去；
統治他們的人大肆咆哮。”
耶和華說：“我的名終日不住被藐視。
6 所以我的子民必認識我的名，
因此到了那日他們就必知道，
說這話的就是我。
看哪！是我。”
7 那傳福音、
宣布平安、
傳美好的福音、
宣布救恩，
又對錫安說“你的 神作王了”的，
他的腳蹤在山上多麼的美！
8 聽啊！你守望者的聲音。
他們都揚起聲來，一同歡呼，
因為耶和華歸回錫安的時候，
他們必親眼看見。
9 耶路撒冷的廢墟啊！
你們要發聲，一同歡呼。
因為耶和華安慰了他的子民，
救贖了耶路撒冷。
10 耶和華在萬國的眼前，
顯露他的聖臂，
地極的人必看見
我們 神的拯救。
11 你們要離開，要離開，要從那裡出來，
不要觸摸不潔淨的東西。
扛抬耶和華器皿的啊！
你們要從巴比倫城中出來，要自潔。
12 你們出來，不必著急；
你們行走，也不必奔逃，
因為耶和華要走在你們前面，
以色列的 神必作你們的後盾。
預言僕人受苦
13 看哪！我的僕人必行事亨通，
他必受尊崇，被高舉，成為至高。
14 許多人怎樣因你而驚奇，
（因為他的容貌毀損得不像人，
他的形狀毀損得不像世人），
15 照樣，他也必使多國的人驚異（按照《馬索拉文本》，“他也必使多國的人驚異”作“他必灑許多國的民”；現參照《七十士譯本》翻譯），
君王要因他閉口不言，
因為從未向他們述說過的事，他們必看見；
他們從未聽過的，他們要明白。
Isaiah 52
New International Version
Isaiah 52
New International Version
52 Awake, awake,(A) Zion,
clothe yourself with strength!(B)
Put on your garments of splendor,(C)
Jerusalem, the holy city.(D)
The uncircumcised(E) and defiled(F)
will not enter you again.(G)
2 Shake off your dust;(H)
rise up,(I) sit enthroned, Jerusalem.
Free yourself from the chains on your neck,(J)
Daughter Zion,(K) now a captive.
3 For this is what the Lord says:
4 For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
5 “And now what do I have here?” declares the Lord.
“For my people have been taken away for nothing,
and those who rule them mock,[a]”
declares the Lord.
“And all day long
my name is constantly blasphemed.(Q)
6 Therefore my people will know(R) my name;(S)
therefore in that day(T) they will know
that it is I who foretold(U) it.
Yes, it is I.”
7 How beautiful on the mountains(V)
are the feet of those who bring good news,(W)
who proclaim peace,(X)
who bring good tidings,
who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
“Your God reigns!”(Y)
8 Listen! Your watchmen(Z) lift up their voices;(AA)
together they shout for joy.(AB)
When the Lord returns(AC) to Zion,(AD)
they will see it with their own eyes.
9 Burst into songs of joy(AE) together,
you ruins(AF) of Jerusalem,
for the Lord has comforted(AG) his people,
he has redeemed Jerusalem.(AH)
10 The Lord will lay bare his holy arm(AI)
in the sight of all the nations,(AJ)
and all the ends of the earth(AK) will see
the salvation(AL) of our God.
11 Depart,(AM) depart, go out from there!
Touch no unclean thing!(AN)
Come out from it and be pure,(AO)
you who carry the articles(AP) of the Lord’s house.
12 But you will not leave in haste(AQ)
or go in flight;
for the Lord will go before you,(AR)
the God of Israel will be your rear guard.(AS)
The Suffering and Glory of the Servant
13 See, my servant(AT) will act wisely[b];
he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.(AU)
14 Just as there were many who were appalled(AV) at him[c]—
his appearance was so disfigured(AW) beyond that of any human being
and his form marred beyond human likeness(AX)—
15 so he will sprinkle(AY) many nations,[d]
and kings(AZ) will shut their mouths(BA) because of him.
For what they were not told, they will see,
and what they have not heard, they will understand.(BB)
