以赛亚书 34
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
神要审判其子民的仇敌
34 列国啊，要近前来听！众民哪，要留心听！
地和地上所充满的，世界和其中所出的一切，都要听！
2 因为耶和华向列国发怒，
向他们所有的军队发烈怒，
要把他们灭尽，
要把他们交出来受屠杀。
3 他们被杀的必被拋弃在外面，
尸体的臭气上腾，
众山都被他们的血所溶化。
4 天上的万象都必消残；
天也像书卷一般被卷起，
所有星宿也必衰残，
像葡萄树的叶子衰残一样，
又像无花果树的叶子凋落一样。
5 因为我的刀在天上已经喝足了，
看哪！它要落在以东，
以及我决定要灭绝的民身上，为要施行审判。
6 耶和华的刀染满了血，
这刀因脂肪、羊羔和公山羊的血，
以及公绵羊腰子的脂肪而滋润，
因为耶和华在波斯拉有杀牲献祭的事，
在以东地有大屠杀。
7 野牛、牛犊与壮牛要与他们一同倒下，
他们的地喝足了血，
他们的尘土因脂肪而肥润。
8 因为耶和华有报仇的日子，
为锡安的案件，必有报应之年。
9 以东的河水都要变成石油，
它的尘土必变成硫磺，
它的地土要变成烧着的石油，
10 昼夜不熄，
烟气永远上腾，
并且必世世代代变为荒凉，
永永远远无人经过。
11 但鹈鹕与箭猪要占据那地，
猫头鹰和乌鸦必住在其中。
耶和华必把混沌的准绳、
空虚的线铊，拉在其上。
12 它的显贵一个也没有了，
以致不能称为一国，
所有的领袖也没有了。
13 以东的宫殿必长荆棘，
它的堡垒必长蒺藜和刺草；
它要作野狗的住处，
作鸵鸟的居所。
14 旷野的走兽必与豺狼相遇，
野山羊必呼喊牠的同伴；
连夜间的怪物也必在那里栖身，
为自己寻找休息的地方。
15 箭蛇要在那里筑窝、下蛋、
孵蛋，并且聚子在牠的阴影下；
鹞鹰也各与自己的伴偶，
聚集在那里。
16 你们要查考和阅读耶和华的书卷；
这些都无一缺少，
也没有一个是没有伴偶的，
因为他的口（按照《马索拉文本》，“他的口”作“我的口”；现参照《死海古卷》和其他古译本翻译）已吩咐了，
他的灵已把牠们聚集。
17 他也为牠们抽签，
他的手用准绳给牠们分地；
牠们必永远得着那地，
也要世世代代住在其中。
Isaiah 34
English Standard Version
Judgment on the Nations
34 Draw near, (A)O nations, to hear,
and give attention, O peoples!
Let the earth hear, and all that fills it;
the world, and all that comes from it.
2 For the Lord is enraged against all the nations,
and furious against all their host;
he has (B)devoted them to destruction,[a] has given them over for slaughter.
3 Their slain shall be cast out,
and (C)the stench of their corpses shall rise;
(D)the mountains shall flow with their blood.
4 (E)All the host of heaven shall rot away,
and the skies roll up like a scroll.
All their host shall fall,
as leaves fall from the vine,
like leaves falling from the fig tree.
5 For my sword has drunk its fill in the heavens;
behold, it descends for judgment upon (F)Edom,
upon the people (G)I have devoted to destruction.
6 The Lord has a sword; it is sated with blood;
it is gorged with fat,
with the blood of lambs and goats,
with the fat of the kidneys of rams.
(H)For the Lord has a sacrifice in Bozrah,
a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
7 (I)Wild oxen shall (J)fall with them,
and (K)young steers with (L)the mighty bulls.
Their land shall drink its fill of blood,
and their soil shall be gorged with fat.
8 (M)For the Lord has a day of vengeance,
a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
9 (N)And the streams of Edom[b] shall be turned into pitch,
and her soil into sulfur;
her land shall become burning pitch.
10 Night and day (O)it shall not be quenched;
(P)its smoke shall go up forever.
(Q)From generation to generation it shall lie waste;
none shall pass through it forever and ever.
11 (R)But the hawk and the porcupine[c] shall possess it,
the owl and the raven shall dwell in it.
(S)He shall stretch the line of (T)confusion[d] over it,
and the plumb line of emptiness.
12 Its nobles—there is no one there to call it a kingdom,
and all its princes shall be nothing.
13 (U)Thorns shall grow over its strongholds,
nettles and thistles in its fortresses.
It shall be the haunt of (V)jackals,
an abode for ostriches.[e]
14 (W)And wild animals shall meet with hyenas;
the wild goat shall cry to his fellow;
indeed, there the night bird[f] settles
and finds for herself a resting place.
15 There the owl nests and lays
and hatches and gathers her young in her shadow;
indeed, there (X)the hawks are gathered,
each one with her mate.
16 Seek and read from the book of the Lord:
Not one of these shall be missing;
none shall be without her mate.
For the mouth of the Lord has commanded,
and his Spirit has gathered them.
17 (Y)He has cast the lot for them;
his hand has portioned it out to them with the line;
they shall possess it forever;
from generation to generation they shall dwell in it.
