赛48:1 雅各家，就是被称为以色列的，从犹大的水源出来的，指着耶和华的名起誓，却不是出于诚实和公义，提说以色列的 神的啊！你们要听这话。
赛48:1 Give ear to this, O family of Jacob, you who are named by the name of Israel, and have come out of the body of Judah; who take oaths by the name of the Lord, and make use of the name of the God of Israel, but not truly and not in good faith.
赛48:2 他们被称为圣城的人，又倚靠以色列的 神；他的名字是万军之耶和华。
赛48:2 For they say that they are of the holy town, and put their faith in the God of Israel: the Lord of armies is his name.
赛48:3 主说：“先前的事，我从古时就预言过了，已经从我的口里说出来了，又说给人听了；我忽然行事，事情就都成就了。
赛48:3 I gave word in the past of the things which came about; they came from my mouth, and I made them clear: suddenly I did them, and they came about.
赛48:4 因为我知道你是顽固的，你的颈项是铁的，你的额是铜的，
赛48:4 Because I saw that your heart was hard, and that your neck was an iron cord, and your brow brass;
赛48:5 所以我从古时就告诉了你；在事情还没有发生以前，我就说给你听了，免得你说：‘这些事是我的偶像所作的，是我的雕像和铸像所命定的。’
赛48:5 For this reason I made it clear to you in the past, before it came I gave you word of it: for fear that you might say, My god did these things, and my pictured and metal images made them come about.
赛48:6 你已经听见了，现在要注意这一切事。难道你不述说吗？从今以后，我要把新的事，就是你不知道的隐秘的事，告诉你。
赛48:6 All this has come to your ears and you have seen it; will you not give witness to it? I am now making clear new things, even secret things, of which you had no knowledge.
赛48:7 这些事是现在才造成的，并不是从古时就有的；在今天以前，你还未曾听见过，免得你说：‘看哪！这些事我早已知道了。’
赛48:7 They have only now been effected, and not in the past: and before this day they had not come to your ears; for fear that you might say, I had knowledge of them.
赛48:8 你从来没有听过，也不知道；你的耳朵从来未曾开通。我原知道你行事非常诡诈；你自出母胎以来，就被称为叛徒。
赛48:8 Truly you had no word of them, no knowledge of them; no news of them in the past had come to your ears; because I saw how false was your behaviour, and that your heart was turned against me from your earliest days.
赛48:9 为了我的名的缘故，我暂时不发怒；为了我的名誉的缘故，我向你忍耐；不把你剪除。
赛48:9 Because of my name I will put away my wrath, and for my praise I will keep myself from cutting you off.
赛48:10 看哪！我熬炼了你，却不像熬炼银子；你在苦难的炉中，我拣选了你。
赛48:10 See, I have been testing you for myself like silver; I have put you through the fire of trouble.
赛48:11 为了我自己的缘故，我必作这事。我的名怎能被亵渎呢？我必不把我的荣耀归给别人。
赛48:11 For myself, even because of my name, I will do it; for I will not let my name be shamed; and my glory I will not give to another.
赛48:12 “雅各，我所呼召的以色列啊！你要听我的话。我就是‘那位’，我是首先的，也是末后的。
赛48:12 Give ear to me, Jacob, and Israel, my loved one; I am he, I am the first and I am the last.
赛48:13 我的手奠定了大地的根基，我的右手展开了诸天；我一呼唤它们，它们就一同站着侍候。
赛48:13 Yes, by my hand was the earth placed on its base, and by my right hand the heavens were stretched out; at my word they take up their places.
赛48:14 列国啊！你们都要集合起来听。他们中间有谁预言过这些事呢？耶和华爱他，他必向巴比伦行他所喜悦的；他的膀臂也必击打迦勒底人。
赛48:14 Come together, all of you, and give ear; who among you has given news of these things? the Lord's loved one will do his pleasure with Babylon, and with the seed of the Chaldaeans.
赛48:15 我亲自说过，又呼召了他；我带领了他来，他所行的就必亨通。
赛48:15 I, even I, have given the word; I have sent for him: I have made him come, and have given effect to his undertakings.
赛48:16 你们要就近我，当听这话：‘从起初我就没有在隐密处说过话，自从有这事情的存在，我就在那里。’现在主耶和华差遣了我和他的灵。
赛48:16 Come near to me, and give ear to this; from the start I did not keep it secret; from the time of its coming into existence I was there: and now the Lord God has sent me, and given me his spirit.
赛48:17 耶和华你的救赎主，以色列的圣者，这样说：‘我是耶和华你的 神，是教导你，使你得益处的，是在你当行的道路上引导你的。
赛48:17 The Lord who takes up your cause, the Holy One of Israel, says, I am the Lord your God, who is teaching you for your profit, guiding you by the way in which you are to go.
赛48:18 但愿你一向都留心听从我的命令，这样你的平安就像河水滔滔，你的公义就如海浪滚滚；
赛48:18 If only you had given ear to my orders, then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness as the waves of the sea:
赛48:19 你的后裔必像海沙那么多，你腹中的子孙要如沙粒这样多；他们的名字必不会被剪除，也不会从我面前消灭。
赛48:19 Your seed would have been like the sand, and your offspring like the dust: your name would not be cut off or come to an end before me.
赛48:20 “你们要从巴比伦出来，从迦勒底人中逃出来，你们要用欢呼的声音宣告，把这事说给人听，你们要把这事宣扬出去，直到地极，说：‘耶和华救赎了他的仆人雅各了。’
赛48:20 Go out of Babylon, go in flight from the Chaldaeans; with the sound of song make it clear, give the news, let the word go out even to the end of the earth: say, The Lord has taken up the cause of his servant Jacob.
赛48:21 耶和华领他们走过荒野的时候，他们并不干渴；他为他们使水从盘石流出来。他裂开盘石，水就涌出来。
赛48:21 They had no need of water when he was guiding them through the waste lands: he made water come out of the rock for them: the rock was parted and the waters came flowing out.
赛48:22 耶和华说：‘恶人没有平安。’”
赛48:22 There is no peace, says the Lord, for the evil-doers.
