以赛亚书 18
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
关于古实的预言
18 古实河外，船只彼此碰撞，
响声四起之地，有祸了！
2 这就是那经常差派使者，
在水面上乘坐蒲草船渡海的地方。
去吧！快行的使者，到那身躯高大、皮肤光滑的国去，
到一个远近都为人所惧怕的民族那里去，
这国是强盛和践踏人的，
他们的地有河流把地分开。
3 世上所有的居民，住在全地上的人哪！
山上竖起旗帜的时候，你们要注意；
号角吹响的时候，你们要聆听。
4 耶和华这样对我说：
“我要从我的居所安静观看，
像日光中闪烁的热气，
又像收割时的热气中有露水的云彩。”
5 因为在收割以前，花蕾开尽，
花朵也成了将熟的葡萄之时，
他就用镰刀削去嫩枝，
又砍掉蔓延的枝子。
6 它们都要撇下，给山间的鸷鸟，
和地上的野兽；
鸷鸟必吃它们来度过夏天，
地上的百兽必吃它们来度过冬天。
7 到那时，这个身躯高大、皮肤光滑的民族，
就是远近都为人所惧怕的民族，
强盛和践踏人的国，
他们的地有河流把地分开，
他们必把礼物带来给万军之耶和华，
就是奉到锡安山，万军之耶和华立他名的地方。
Isaiah 18
New Century Version
God’s Message to Cush
18 How terrible it will be for the land beyond the rivers of Cush.
It is filled with the sound of wings.
2 That land sends messengers across the sea;
they go on the water in boats made of reeds.
Go, quick messengers,
to a people who are tall and smooth-skinned,
who are feared everywhere.
They are a powerful nation that defeats other nations.
Their land is divided by rivers.
3 All you people of the world, look!
Everyone who lives in the world, look!
You will see a banner raised on a mountain.
You will hear a trumpet sound.
4 The Lord said to me,
“I will quietly watch from where I live,
like heat in the sunshine,
like the dew in the heat of harvest time.”
5 The time will come, after the flowers have bloomed and before the harvest,
when new grapes will be budding and growing.
The enemy will cut the plants with knives;
he will cut down the vines and take them away.
6 They will be left for the birds of the mountains
and for the wild animals.
Birds will feed on them all summer,
and wild animals will eat them that winter.”
7 At that time a gift will be brought to the Lord All-Powerful
from the people who are tall and smooth-skinned,
who are feared everywhere.
They are a powerful nation that defeats other nations.
Their land is divided by rivers.
These gifts will be brought to the place of the Lord All-Powerful,
to Mount Zion.
