以賽亞書 Isaiah

44:1	[hb5]	我的僕人雅各、我所揀選的以色列阿、現在你當聽。
	[kjv]	Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:
	[bbe]	And now, give ear, O Jacob my servant, and Israel whom I have taken for myself:
44:2	[hb5]	造作你、又從你出胎造就你、並要幫助你的耶和華如此說、我的僕人雅各、我所揀選的耶書崙哪、不要害怕．
	[kjv]	Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.
	[bbe]	The Lord who made you, forming you in your mother's body, the Lord, your helper, says, Have no fear, O Jacob my servant, and you, Jeshurun, whom I have taken for myself.
44:3	[hb5]	因為我要將水澆灌口渴的人、將河澆灌乾旱之地．我要將我的靈澆灌你的後裔、將我的福澆灌你的子孫。
	[kjv]	For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:
	[bbe]	For I will send water on the land needing it, and streams on the dry earth: I will let my spirit come down on your seed, and my blessing on your offspring.
44:4	[hb5]	他們要發生在草中、像溪水旁的柳樹。
	[kjv]	And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.
	[bbe]	And they will come up like grass in a well-watered field, like water-plants by the streams.
44:5	[hb5]	這個要說、我是屬耶和華的．那個要以雅各的名自稱．又一個要親手寫歸耶和華的、〔或作在手上寫歸耶和華〕並自稱為以色列。
	[kjv]	One shall say, I am the LORD's; and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe with his hand unto the LORD, and surname himself by the name of Israel.
	[bbe]	One will say, I am the Lord's; and another will give himself the name, Jacob; another will put a mark on his hand, I am the Lord's, and another will take the name of Israel for himself.
44:6	[hb5]	耶和華以色列的君、以色列的救贖主萬軍之耶和華如此說、我是首先的、我是末後的、除我以外、再沒有真神。
	[kjv]	Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
	[bbe]	The Lord, the King of Israel, even the Lord of armies who has taken up his cause, says, I am the first and the last, and there is no God but me.
44:7	[hb5]	自從我設立古時的民、誰能像我宣告、並且指明、又為自己陳說呢．讓他將未來的事、和必成的事說明。
	[kjv]	And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto them.
	[bbe]	If there is one like me, let him come forward and say it, let him make it clear and put it in order before me: who has made clear in the past the things to come? let him make clear the future to me.
44:8	[hb5]	你們不要恐懼、也不要害怕．我豈不是從上古就說明指示你們麼、並且你們是我的見證、除我以外、豈有真神麼、誠然沒有磐石、我不知道一個。
	[kjv]	Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
	[bbe]	Have no fear, be strong in heart; have I not made it clear to you in the past, and let you see it? and you are my witnesses. Is there any God but me, or a Rock of whom I have no knowledge?
44:9	[hb5]	製造雕刻偶像的、盡都虛空．他們所喜悅的、都無益處．他們的見證、無所看見、無所知曉、他們便覺羞愧。
	[kjv]	They that make a graven image are all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they are their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.
	[bbe]	Those who make a pictured image are all of them as nothing, and the things of their desire will be of no profit to them: and their servants see not, and have no knowledge; so they will be put to shame.
44:10	[hb5]	誰製造神像、鑄造無益的偶像。
	[kjv]	Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image that is profitable for nothing?
	[bbe]	Whoever makes a god, makes nothing but a metal image in which there is no profit.
44:11	[hb5]	看哪、他的同伴都必羞愧、工匠也不過是人．任他們聚會、任他們站立、都必懼怕、一同羞愧。
	[kjv]	Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the workmen, they are of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; yet they shall fear, and they shall be ashamed together.
	[bbe]	Truly, all those who make use of secret arts will be put to shame, and their words of power are only words of men: let them all come forward together; they will all be in fear and be put to shame.
44:12	[hb5]	鐵匠把鐵在火炭中燒熱、用鎚打鐵器、用他有力的膀臂錘成．他飢餓而無力、不喝水而發倦。
	[kjv]	The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms: yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no water, and is faint.
	[bbe]	The iron-worker is heating the metal in the fire, giving it form with his hammers, and working on it with his strong arm: then for need of food his strength gives way, and for need of water he becomes feeble.
44:13	[hb5]	木匠拉線、用筆劃出樣子．用鉋子鉋成形狀、用圓尺劃了模樣、仿照人的體態、作成人形、好住在房屋中。
	[kjv]	The carpenter stretcheth out his rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
	[bbe]	The woodworker is measuring out the wood with his line, marking it out with his pencil: after smoothing it with his plane, and making circles on it with his instrument, he gives it the form and glory of a man, so that it may be placed in the house.
44:14	[hb5]	他砍伐香柏樹、又取柞〔或作青桐〕樹和橡樹、在樹林中選定了一棵．他栽種松樹得雨長養、
	[kjv]	He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish it.
	[bbe]	He has cedars cut down for himself, he takes an oak and lets it get strong among the trees of the wood; he has an ash-tree planted, and the rain gives it growth.
44:15	[hb5]	這樹、人可用以燒火、他自己取些烤火、又燒著烤餅．而且作神像跪拜、作雕刻的偶像向他叩拜。
	[kjv]	Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.
	[bbe]	Then it will be used to make a fire, so that a man may get warm; he has the oven heated with it and makes bread: he makes a god with it, to which he gives worship: he makes a pictured image out of it, and goes down on his face before it.
44:16	[hb5]	他把一分燒在火中、把一分烤肉喫飽．自己烤火說、阿哈、我暖和了、我見火了。
	[kjv]	He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
	[bbe]	With part of it he makes a fire, and on the fire he gets meat cooked and takes a full meal: he makes himself warm, and says, Aha! I am warm, I have seen the fire:
44:17	[hb5]	他用剩下的作了一神、就是雕刻的偶像、他向這偶像俯伏叩拜、禱告他說、求你拯救我、因你是我的神。
	[kjv]	And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou art my god.
	[bbe]	And the rest of it he makes into a god, even his pictured image: he goes down on his face before it, giving worship to it, and making prayer to it, saying, Be my saviour; for you are my god.
44:18	[hb5]	他們不知道、也不思想、因為耶和華閉住他們的眼不能看見、塞住他們的心不能明白。
	[kjv]	They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.
	[bbe]	They have no knowledge or wisdom; for he has put a veil over their eyes, so that they may not see; and on their hearts, so that they may not give attention.
44:19	[hb5]	誰心裡也不醒悟、也沒有知識、沒有聰明、能說、我曾拿一分在火中燒了、在炭火上烤過餅、我也烤過肉喫、這剩下的、我豈要作可憎的物麼．我豈可向木𢃼子叩拜呢。
	[kjv]	And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten it: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?
	[bbe]	And no one takes note, no one has enough knowledge or wisdom to say, I have put part of it in the fire, and made bread on it; I have had a meal of the flesh cooked with it: and am I now to make the rest of it into a false god? am I to go down on my face before a bit of wood?
44:20	[hb5]	他以灰為食、心中昏迷、使他偏邪、他不能自救、也不能說、我右手中豈不是有虛謊麼。
	[kjv]	He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?
	[bbe]	As for him whose food is the dust of a dead fire, he has been turned from the way by a twisted mind, so that he is unable to keep himself safe by saying, What I have here in my hand is false.
44:21	[hb5]	雅各、以色列阿、你是我的僕人、要記念這些事．以色列阿、你是我的僕人、我造就你必不忘記你。
	[kjv]	Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou art my servant: I have formed thee; thou art my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me.
	[bbe]	Keep these things in mind, O Jacob; and you Israel, for you are my servant: I have made you; you are my servant; O Israel, I will not let you go out of my memory.
44:22	[hb5]	我塗抹了你的過犯、像厚雲消散．我塗抹了你的罪惡、如薄雲滅沒．你當歸向我、因我救贖了你。
	[kjv]	I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.
	[bbe]	I have put your evil doings out of my mind like a thick cloud, and your sins like a mist: come back to me; for I have taken up your cause.
44:23	[hb5]	諸天哪、應當歌唱、因為耶和華作成這事．地的深處阿、應當歡呼、眾山應當發聲歌唱、樹林和其中所有的樹、都當如此、因為耶和華救贖了雅各、並要因以色列榮耀自己。
	[kjv]	Sing, O ye heavens; for the LORD hath done it: shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel.
	[bbe]	Make a song, O heavens, for the Lord has done it: give a loud cry, you deep parts of the earth: let your voices be loud in song, you mountains, and you woods with all your trees: for the Lord has taken up the cause of Jacob, and will let his glory be seen in Israel.
44:24	[hb5]	從你出胎、造就你的救贖主耶和華如此說、我耶和華是創造萬物的、是獨自鋪張諸天、鋪開大地的。（誰與我同在呢）
	[kjv]	Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
	[bbe]	The Lord, who has taken up your cause, and who gave you life in your mother's body, says, I am the Lord who makes all things; stretching out the heavens by myself, and giving the earth its limits; who was with me?
44:25	[hb5]	使說假話的兆頭失效、使占卜的癲狂、使智慧人退後、使他的知識變為愚拙。
	[kjv]	That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
	[bbe]	Who makes the signs of those who give word of the future come to nothing, so that those who have knowledge of secret arts go off their heads; turning the wise men back, and making their knowledge foolish:
44:26	[hb5]	使我僕人的話語立定、我使者的謀算成就．論到耶路撒冷說、必有人居住．論到猶大的城邑說、必被建造．其中的荒場我也必興起。
	[kjv]	That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof:
	[bbe]	Who makes the word of his servants certain, and gives effect to the purposes of his representatives; who says of Jerusalem, Her people will come back to her; and of the towns of Judah, I will give orders for their building, and will make her waste places fertile again:
44:27	[hb5]	對深淵說、你乾了罷．我也要使你的江河乾涸。
	[kjv]	That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
	[bbe]	Who says to the deep, Be dry, and I will make your rivers dry:
44:28	[hb5]	論古列說、他是我的牧人、必成就我所喜悅的、必下令建造耶路撒冷、發命立穩聖殿的根基。
	[kjv]	That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
	[bbe]	Who says of Cyrus, He will take care of my sheep, and will do all my pleasure: who says of Jerusalem, I will give the word for your building; and of the Temple, Your bases will be put in place.
