Isaiah

永恒的和平

1亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚得默示，论到犹大和耶路撒冷。

2末后的日子，耶和华殿的山必坚立， 超乎诸山，高举过于万岭； 万民都要流归这山。

3必有许多国的民前往，说： 来吧，我们登耶和华的山， 奔雅各 神的殿。 主必将他的道教训我们； 我们也要行他的路。 因为训诲必出于锡安； 耶和华的言语必出于耶路撒冷。

4他必在列国中施行审判， 为许多国民断定是非。 他们要将刀打成犁头， 把枪打成镰刀。 这国不举刀攻击那国； 他们也不再学习战事。

5雅各家啊，来吧！ 我们在耶和华的光明中行走。

骄者必败

6耶和华，你离弃了你百姓雅各家， 是因他们充满了东方的风俗， 作观兆的，像非利士人一样， 并与外邦人击掌。

7他们的国满了金银， 财宝也无穷； 他们的地满了马匹， 车辆也无数。

8他们的地满了偶像； 他们跪拜自己手所造的， 就是自己指头所做的。

9卑贱人屈膝； 尊贵人下跪； 所以不可饶恕他们。

10你当进入岩穴，藏在土中， 躲避耶和华的惊吓和他威严的荣光。

11到那日，眼目高傲的必降为卑； 性情狂傲的都必屈膝； 惟独耶和华被尊崇。

12必有万军耶和华降罚的一个日子， 要临到骄傲狂妄的； 一切自高的都必降为卑；

13又临到黎巴嫩高大的香柏树和巴珊的橡树；

14又临到一切高山的峻岭；

15又临到高台和坚固城墙；

16又临到他施的船只并一切可爱的美物。

17骄傲的必屈膝； 狂妄的必降卑。 在那日，惟独耶和华被尊崇；

18偶像必全然废弃。

19耶和华兴起，使地大震动的时候， 人就进入石洞，进入土穴， 躲避耶和华的惊吓和他威严的荣光。

20到那日，人必将为拜而造的金偶像、银偶像 抛给田鼠和蝙蝠。

21到耶和华兴起，使地大震动的时候， 人好进入磐石洞中和岩石穴里， 躲避耶和华的惊吓和他威严的荣光。

22你们休要倚靠世人。 他鼻孔里不过有气息； 他在一切事上可算什么呢？

1The thing that Isaiah son of Amoz hath seen concerning Judah and Jerusalem:

2And it hath come to pass, In the latter end of the days, Established is the mount of Jehovah's house, Above the top of the mounts, And it hath been lifted up above the heights, And flowed unto it have all the nations.

3And gone have many peoples and said, 'Come, and we go up unto the mount of Jehovah, Unto the house of the God of Jacob, And He doth teach us of His ways, And we walk in His paths, For from Zion goeth forth a law, And a word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.

4And He hath judged between the nations, And hath given a decision to many peoples, And they have beat their swords to ploughshares, And their spears to pruning-hooks, Nation doth not lift up sword unto nation, Nor do they learn any more — war.

5O house of Jacob, come, And we walk in the light of Jehovah.'

6For Thou hast left Thy people, the house of Jacob. For they have been filled from the east, And [are] sorcerers like the Philistines, And with the children of strangers strike hands.

7And its land is full of silver and gold, And there is no end to its treasures, And its land is full of horses, And there is no end to its chariots,

8And its land is full of idols, To the work of its hands it boweth itself, To that which its fingers have made,

9And the low boweth down, and the high is humbled, And Thou acceptest them not.

10Enter into a rock, and be hidden in dust, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency.

11The haughty eyes of man have been humbled, And bowed down hath been the loftiness of men, And set on high hath Jehovah alone been in that day.

12For a day [is] to Jehovah of Hosts, For every proud and high one, And for every lifted up and low one,

13And for all cedars of Lebanon, The high and the exalted ones, And for all oaks of Bashan,

14And for all the high mountains, And for all the exalted heights,

15And for every high tower, And for every fenced wall,

16And for all ships of Tarshish, And for all desirable pictures.

17And bowed down hath been the haughtiness of man, And humbled the loftiness of men, And set on high hath Jehovah alone been in that day.

18And the idols — they completely pass away.

19And [men] have entered into caverns of rocks, And into caves of dust, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency, In His rising to terrify the earth.

20In that day doth man cast his idols of silver, And his idols of gold, That they have made for him to worship, To moles, and to bats,

21To enter into cavities of the rocks, And into clefts of the high places, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency, In His rising to terrify the earth.

22Cease for you from man, Whose breath [is] in his nostrils, For — in what is he esteemed?
