1For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp that burns.
1主应许迅速施行拯救
2The nations shall see your righteousness, and all kings your glory, and you shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of Yahweh shall name.
2列国必看见你的公义，众王必看见你的荣耀；人要给你起一个新名，是耶和华亲口指定的。
3You shall also be a crown of beauty in the hand of Yahweh, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
3你在耶和华的手中要作美丽的冠冕，在你 神的掌上要作君王的华冠。
4You shall no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall your land any more be termed Desolate: but you shall be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for Yahweh delights in you, and your land shall be married.
4你必不再称为被撇弃的，你的地也必不再称为荒凉的，你却要称为我所喜悦的，你的地也要称为有丈夫的，因为耶和华喜悦你，你的地也必有丈夫。
5For as a young man marries a virgin, so your sons shall marry you; and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so your God will rejoice over you.
5因为年轻人怎样娶处女，那建造你的也必怎样娶你；新郎怎样因新娘欢乐，你的 神也必怎样因你欢乐。
6I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they shall never hold their peace day nor night: you who call on Yahweh, take no rest,
6耶路撒冷啊！我在你的城墙上设立了守望的人；他们昼夜都不缄默；提耶和华之名的啊！你们不要静止。
7and give him no rest, until he establishes, and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
7你们也不要让 神静止，直至他建立耶路撒冷，等到他使耶路撒冷在地上成为受人赞美的城。
8Yahweh has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, “Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies; and foreigners shall not drink your new wine, for which you have labored:
8耶和华指着自己的右手和他大能的膀臂起誓，说：“我必不再把你的五谷给你的仇敌作食物，外族人也必不再喝你劳碌所得的新酒；
9but those who have garnered it shall eat it, and praise Yahweh; and those who have gathered it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.”
9唯有那些收割的人可以吃五谷，并且赞美耶和华；那些收集的人可以在我圣所的院子里喝新酒。”
10Go through, go through the gates! Prepare the way of the people! Cast up, cast up the highway! Gather out the stones! Lift up a banner for the peoples.
10拯救必然来临你们要经过，要从城门经过，预备人民的道路；你们要填高，要填高大道。要捡去石头、向万民竖立旗帜。
11Behold, Yahweh has proclaimed to the end of the earth, “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your salvation comes. Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.’”
11看哪！耶和华曾向地极的人宣告，说：你们要对锡安的居民（“居民”原文作“女子”）说：‘看哪！你的拯救者来到了。他给予人的赏赐在他那里，他施予人的报应在他面前。’”
12They shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of Yahweh: and you shall be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.
12人必称他们为圣洁的子民，为耶和华买赎回来的人；你也必称为被爱慕的，不被遗弃的城。
