以賽亞書 Isaiah

48:1	[hb5]	雅各家、稱為以色列名下、從猶大水源出來的、當聽我言．你們指著耶和華的名起誓、提說以色列的　神、卻不憑誠實、不憑公義。
	[kjv]	Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
	[bbe]	Give ear to this, O family of Jacob, you who are named by the name of Israel, and have come out of the body of Judah; who take oaths by the name of the Lord, and make use of the name of the God of Israel, but not truly and not in good faith.
48:2	[hb5]	（他們自稱為聖城的人、所倚靠的是名為萬軍之耶和華以色列的　神。）
	[kjv]	For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.
	[bbe]	For they say that they are of the holy town, and put their faith in the God of Israel: the Lord of armies is his name.
48:3	[hb5]	主說、早先的事我從古時說明、已經出了我的口、也是我所指示的、我忽然行作、事便成就。
	[kjv]	I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.
	[bbe]	I gave word in the past of the things which came about; they came from my mouth, and I made them clear: suddenly I did them, and they came about.
48:4	[hb5]	因為我素來知道你是頑梗的、你的頸項是鐵的、你的額是銅的、
	[kjv]	Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
	[bbe]	Because I saw that your heart was hard, and that your neck was an iron cord, and your brow brass;
48:5	[hb5]	所以我從古時將這事給你說明、在未成以先指示你、免得你說、這些事是我的偶像所行的、是我雕刻的偶像、和我鑄造的偶像所命定的。
	[kjv]	I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.
	[bbe]	For this reason I made it clear to you in the past, before it came I gave you word of it: for fear that you might say, My god did these things, and my pictured and metal images made them come about.
48:6	[hb5]	你已經聽見、現在要看見這一切、你不說明麼、從今以後、我將新事就是你所不知道的隱密事、指示你。
	[kjv]	Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.
	[bbe]	All this has come to your ears and you have seen it; will you not give witness to it? I am now making clear new things, even secret things, of which you had no knowledge.
48:7	[hb5]	這事是現今造的、並非從古就有、在今日以先、你也未曾聽見、免得你說、這事我早已知道了。
	[kjv]	They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
	[bbe]	They have only now been effected, and not in the past: and before this day they had not come to your ears; for fear that you might say, I had knowledge of them.
48:8	[hb5]	你未曾聽見、未曾知道、你的耳朵從來未曾開通．我原知道你行事極其詭詐、你自從出胎以來、便稱為悖逆的。
	[kjv]	Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
	[bbe]	Truly you had no word of them, no knowledge of them; no news of them in the past had come to your ears; because I saw how false was your behaviour, and that your heart was turned against me from your earliest days.
48:9	[hb5]	我為我的名、暫且忍怒、為我的頌讚、向你容忍、不將你剪除。
	[kjv]	For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
	[bbe]	Because of my name I will put away my wrath, and for my praise I will keep myself from cutting you off.
48:10	[hb5]	我熬煉你、卻不像熬煉銀子．你在苦難的爐中、我揀選你。
	[kjv]	Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
	[bbe]	See, I have been testing you for myself like silver; I have put you through the fire of trouble.
48:11	[hb5]	我為自己的緣故必行這事、我焉能使我的名被褻瀆、我必不將我的榮耀歸給假神。
	[kjv]	For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.
	[bbe]	For myself, even because of my name, I will do it; for I will not let my name be shamed; and my glory I will not give to another.
48:12	[hb5]	雅各、我所選召的以色列阿、當聽我言．我是耶和華、我是首先的、也是末後的。
	[kjv]	Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
	[bbe]	Give ear to me, Jacob, and Israel, my loved one; I am he, I am the first and I am the last.
48:13	[hb5]	我手立了地的根基、我右手鋪張諸天、我一招呼便都立住。
	[kjv]	Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.
	[bbe]	Yes, by my hand was the earth placed on its base, and by my right hand the heavens were stretched out; at my word they take up their places.
48:14	[hb5]	你們都當聚集而聽．他們〔或作偶像〕內中誰說過這些事。耶和華所愛的人、必向巴比倫行他所喜悅的事、他的膀臂也要加在迦勒底人身上。
	[kjv]	All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.
	[bbe]	Come together, all of you, and give ear; who among you has given news of these things? the Lord's loved one will do his pleasure with Babylon, and with the seed of the Chaldaeans.
48:15	[hb5]	惟有我曾說過、我又選召他、領他來、他的道路就必亨通。
	[kjv]	I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.
	[bbe]	I, even I, have given the word; I have sent for him: I have made him come, and have given effect to his undertakings.
48:16	[hb5]	你們要就近我來聽這話．我從起頭並未曾在隱密處說話、自從有這事、我就在那裡．現在主耶和華差遣我和他的靈來。〔或作耶和華和他的靈差遣我來〕。
	[kjv]	Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
	[bbe]	Come near to me, and give ear to this; from the start I did not keep it secret; from the time of its coming into existence I was there: and now the Lord God has sent me, and given me his spirit.
48:17	[hb5]	耶和華你的救贖主、以色列的聖者如此說、我是耶和華你的　神、教訓你使你得益處、引導你所當行的路。
	[kjv]	Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.
	[bbe]	The Lord who takes up your cause, the Holy One of Israel, says, I am the Lord your God, who is teaching you for your profit, guiding you by the way in which you are to go.
48:18	[hb5]	甚願你素來聽從我的命令、你的平安就如河水、你的公義就如海浪。
	[kjv]	O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:
	[bbe]	If only you had given ear to my orders, then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness as the waves of the sea:
48:19	[hb5]	你的後裔也必多如海沙、你腹中所生的也必多如沙粒．他的名在我面前必不剪除、也不滅絕。
	[kjv]	Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
	[bbe]	Your seed would have been like the sand, and your offspring like the dust: your name would not be cut off or come to an end before me.
48:20	[hb5]	你們要從巴比倫出來、從迦勒底人中逃脫、以歡呼的聲音傳揚說、耶和華救贖了他的僕人雅各、你們要將這事宣揚到地極。
	[kjv]	Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
	[bbe]	Go out of Babylon, go in flight from the Chaldaeans; with the sound of song make it clear, give the news, let the word go out even to the end of the earth: say, The Lord has taken up the cause of his servant Jacob.
48:21	[hb5]	耶和華引導他們經過沙漠、他們並不乾渴、他為他們使水從磐石而流、分裂磐石水就湧出。
	[kjv]	And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.
	[bbe]	They had no need of water when he was guiding them through the waste lands: he made water come out of the rock for them: the rock was parted and the waters came flowing out.
48:22	[hb5]	耶和華說、惡人必不得平安。
	[kjv]	There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.
	[bbe]	There is no peace, says the Lord, for the evil-doers.
