¹　神白白的恩惠

¹Ho, every thirsty one, come ye to the waters, And he who hath no money, Come ye, buy and eat, yea, come, buy Without money and without price, wine and milk.

²你们为什么用银子去买那不是食物的呢？为什么用你们劳碌得来的去买那不能使人饱足的呢？你们要留心听我的话，就可以吃美物，使你们的心灵享受肥甘。

²Why do ye weigh money for that which is not bread? And your labour for that which is not for satiety? Hearken diligently unto me, and eat good, And your soul doth delight itself in fatness.

³你们要侧耳而听，要到我这里来；你们要听，就可以存活；我必与你们立永远的约，就是应许赐给大卫的那确实的慈爱。

³Incline your ear, and come unto me, Hear, and your soul doth live, And I make for you a covenant age-during, The kind acts of David — that are stedfast.

⁴看哪！我已经立了他作万族的见证人，为万族的首领和司令。

⁴Lo, a witness to peoples I have given him, A leader and commander to peoples.

⁵看哪！你要召聚你不认识的国；那些素来不认识你的国也必奔向你，都因耶和华你的　神、以色列的圣者的缘故，因为他已经荣耀了你。

⁵Lo, a nation thou knowest not, thou callest, And a nation who know thee not unto thee do run, For the sake of Jehovah thy God, And for the Holy One of Israel, Because He hath beautified thee.

⁶　神言出必行你们要趁着耶和华可以寻找的时候，寻找他，趁着他靠近的时候，呼求他。

⁶Seek ye Jehovah, while He is found, Call ye Him, while He is near,

⁷恶人要离弃自己的道路，不义的人当除去自己的意念，回转过来归向耶和华，耶和华就必怜悯他。你们当回转过来归向我们的　神，因为他大大赦免人的罪。

⁷Forsake doth the wicked his way, And the man of iniquity his thoughts, And he returneth to Jehovah, and He pitieth him, And unto our God for He multiplieth to pardon.

⁸耶和华说：“我的意念不是你们的意念，你们的道路也不是我的道路。

⁸For not My thoughts [are] your thoughts, Nor your ways My ways, — an affirmation of Jehovah,

⁹天怎样高过地，我的道路也怎样高过你们的道路，我的意念也怎样高过你们的意念。

⁹For high have the heavens been above the earth, So high have been My ways above your ways, And My thoughts above your thoughts.

¹⁰雨雪怎样从天上降下来，不再返回天上，却灌溉大地，使地上的植物发芽结实，使撒种的有种子，吃的人有粮食；

¹⁰For, as come down doth the shower, And the snow from the heavens, And thither returneth not, But hath watered the earth, And hath caused it to yield, and to spring up, And hath given seed to the sower, and bread to the eater,

¹¹从我的口所出的话也必这样，必不徒然返回我这里，却要作成我所喜悦的，使它在我差遣它去作的事上必然亨通。

¹¹So is My word that goeth out of My mouth, It turneth not back unto Me empty, But hath done that which I desired, And prosperously effected that [for] which I sent it.

¹²你们必欢欢喜喜出来，平平安安蒙引导；大山小山都必在你们面前发声欢呼，田野所有的树木也都拍掌。

¹²For with joy ye go forth, And with peace ye are brought in, The mountains and the hills Break forth before you [with] singing, And all trees of the field clap the hand.

¹³松树要长起来代替荆棘，番石榴要长起来代替蒺藜。这要为耶和华留名，作永远不能废掉的记号。”

¹³Instead of the thorn come up doth fir, Instead of the brier come up doth myrtle, And it hath been to Jehovah for a name, For a sign age-during — it is not cut off!
