Isaiah 52

1 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. 2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion. 3 For thus saith the LORD, Ye have sold yourselves for nought; and ye shall be redeemed without money. 4 For thus saith the Lord GOD, My people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there; and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause. 5 Now therefore, what have I here, saith the LORD, that my people is taken away for nought? they that rule over them make them to howl, saith the LORD; and my name continually every day is blasphemed. 6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.

7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! 8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion.

9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the LORD hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem. 10 The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.

11 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the LORD. 12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the LORD will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your rereward.*52.12 be…: Heb. gather you up

13 Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high.*52.13 deal…: or, prosper 14 As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men: 15 So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.

神必拯救耶路撒冷

1 锡安哪！你要醒来；

醒来，披上你的力量。

圣城耶路撒冷啊！

要穿上你华美的衣服。

因为未受割礼的和不洁净的人，

都再不得进到你那里去。

2 耶路撒冷啊！抖下尘土，

起来，坐在位上吧！

锡安被掳的居民*"居民"原文作"女子"哪！

解开你颈项上的锁炼。

3 耶和华这样说：

"你们被卖是毫无代价的，

你们被赎回也必不用银子。"

4 主耶和华这样说：

"我的子民先前曾下到埃及，在那里寄居；

后来有亚述人无缘无故地欺压了他们。

5 现在我在这里作甚么呢？"耶和华说：

"我的子民毫无代价被取去；

统治他们的人大肆咆哮。"

耶和华说："我的名终日不住被藐视。

6 所以我的子民必认识我的名，

因此到了那日他们就必知道，

说这话的就是我。

看哪！是我。"

7 那传福音、

宣布平安、

传美好的福音、

宣布救恩，

又对锡安说"你的　神作王了"的，

他的脚踪在山上多么的美！

8 听啊！你守望者的声音。

他们都扬起声来，一同欢呼，

因为耶和华归回锡安的时候，

他们必亲眼看见。

9 耶路撒冷的废墟啊！

你们要发声，一同欢呼。

因为耶和华安慰了他的子民，

救赎了耶路撒冷。

10 耶和华在万国的眼前，

显露他的圣臂，

地极的人必看见

我们　神的拯救。

11 你们要离开，要离开，要从那里出来，

不要触摸不洁净的东西。

扛抬耶和华器皿的啊！

你们要从巴比伦城中出来，要自洁。

12 你们出来，不必着急；

你们行走，也不必奔逃，

因为耶和华要走在你们前面，

以色列的　神必作你们的后盾。

预言仆人受苦

13 看哪！我的仆人必行事亨通，

他必受尊崇，被高举，成为至高。

14 许多人怎样因你而惊奇，

（因为他的容貌毁损得不像人，

他的形状毁损得不像世人），

15 照样，他也必使多国的人惊异*按照《马索拉文本》，"他也必使多国的人惊异"作"他必洒许多国的民"；现参照《七十士译本》翻译，

君王要因他闭口不言，

因为从未向他们述说过的事，他们必看见；

他们从未听过的，他们要明白。
