1 看哪! 这是我的仆人, 我扶持他; 我所拣选的, 我的心喜悦他; 我已经把我的灵赐给他, 他必把公理带给万国。

2 他不呼喊, 也不扬声, 也不叫人在街上听见他的声音。

3 压伤的芦苇, 他不折断; 将熄灭的灯火, 他不吹灭; 他忠实地传出公理。

4 他不灰心, 也不沮丧, 直到他在地上设立公理, 众海岛的人都等候他的教训。

5 那创造诸天, 展开穹苍, 铺张大地和大地所出的一切, 赐气息给地上的众人, 又赐灵性给在地上行的人的耶和华 神这样说:

6 "我耶和华凭着公义呼召了你; 我必紧拉着你的手, 我必保护你, 立你作人民的约, 作列国的光,

7 为要开瞎子的眼, 领被囚的出牢狱, 领住在黑暗中的出监牢。

8 我是耶和华, 这是我的名; 我必不把我的荣耀归给别人, 也不把我当受的称赞归给雕刻的偶像。

9 看哪! 先前预言过的事已经成就了, 现在我说明新的事; 它们还没有发生以前, 我就先说给你们听了。"

10 所有航海的和海中所充满的, 众海岛和其上的居民哪! 你们都要向耶和华唱新歌, 从地极向他发出赞美。

11 愿旷野和其中的城镇都扬声; 愿基达人居住的村庄都高呼; 愿西拉的居民都欢呼, 在山顶上吶喊。

12 愿他们把荣耀归给耶和华, 在众海岛中宣扬对他的颂赞。

13 耶和华必像勇士出战, 必像战士激动热心; 他要呼喊, 大声吶喊, 要向仇敌显出自己的威猛。

14 我已经很久缄默不言, 闭口不语, 但现在我要像待产的妇人一样呼喊, 我要急速地喘气。

15 我必使大山小山都变为荒场, 使一切草木都枯干; 我要使江河变为干地, 使水池干涸。

16 我必领瞎子走陌生的道, 带他们走他们不知道的路。我必在他们面前使黑暗变为光明, 使弯曲的地方变为平直。这些事我都要作, 决不放弃。

17 那些倚靠偶像, 对铸像说: "你们是我们的神"的, 必被赶逐, 全然蒙羞。

18 聋子啊! 你们要听。瞎子啊! 你们要留心去看。

19 有谁比我的仆人更瞎呢?有谁比我差派的使者更聋呢?有谁瞎眼像那与我立了和约的呢?有谁瞎眼像耶和华的仆人呢?

20 你们看见了许多的事, 却没有留心, 耳朵开着, 却没有听见。

21 耶和华为自己公义的缘故, 喜欢使律法为大为尊。

22 但这人民是被抢劫和被掠夺的, 全都困陷在洞穴中, 被收藏在监牢里; 他们作了掠物, 无人搭救; 他们成了掳物, 无人说: "要归还! "

23 你们中间谁肯听这话呢?谁肯从今以后留心听呢?

24 谁把雅各交出来给掠夺者?谁把以色列交给抢劫的呢?岂不是耶和华, 就是我们得罪的那位吗?因为他们不肯遵行他的道, 也不肯听从他的律法。

25 因此, 他把他猛烈的怒气和惨酷的战争, 倾倒在他身上; 这在他四周如火烧起来, 他还不知道; 把他烧着了, 他也不放在心上。

1 Behold, my servant, whom I uphold; my chosen, in whom my soul delighteth: I have put my Spirit upon him; he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles. 2 He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street. 3 A bruised reed will he not break, and a dimly burning wick will he not quench: he will bring forth justice in truth. 4 He will not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set justice in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his law.

5 Thus saith God Jehovah, he that created the heavens, and stretched them forth; he that spread abroad the earth and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: 6 I, Jehovah, have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thy hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles; 7 to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison-house. 8 I am Jehovah, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise unto graven images. 9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.

10 Sing unto Jehovah a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth; ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein, the isles, and the inhabitants thereof. 11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit; let the inhabitants of Sela sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains. 12 Let them give glory unto Jehovah, and declare his praise in the islands. 13 Jehovah will go forth as a mighty man; he will stir up his zeal like a man of war: he will cry, yea, he will shout aloud; he will do mightily against his enemies.

14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry out like a travailing woman; I will gasp and pant together. 15 I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools. 16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they know not; in paths that they know not will I lead them; I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things will I do, and I will not forsake them. 17 They shall be turned back, they shall be utterly put to shame, that trust in graven images, that say unto molten images, Ye are our gods.

18 Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see. 19 Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I send? who is blind as he that is at peace with me, and blind as Jehovah’s servant? 20 Thou seest many things, but thou observest not; his ears are open, but he heareth not. 21 It pleased Jehovah, for his righteousness’ sake, to magnify the law, and make it honorable. 22 But this is a people robbed and plundered; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison-houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.

23 Who is there among you that will give ear to this? that will hearken and hear for the time to come? 24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not Jehovah? he against whom we have sinned, and in whose ways they would not walk, neither were they obedient unto his law. 25 Therefore he poured upon him the fierceness of his anger, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.
