Isaiah 22

1 This is the burden against the Valley of Vision: What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the rooftops,

1 以下是关于异象谷 的预言： 为什么你们全都上到房顶呢？

2 O city of commotion, O town of revelry? Your slain did not die by the sword, nor were they killed in battle.

2 你们这座充满喧闹、骚动和欢乐的城啊， 你们中间被杀的人既非丧身刀下， 也非死于战场。

3 All your rulers have fled together, captured without a bow. All your fugitives were captured together, having fled to a distant place.

3 你们的官长都一起逃跑， 一箭未发便束手就缚， 逃到远方的也一同被擒。

4 Therefore I said, “Turn away from me, let me weep bitterly! Do not try to console me over the destruction of the daughter of my people.”

4 所以，我说：“你们不要管我， 让我痛哭吧！ 不要安慰我， 我的同胞都被毁灭了。”

5 For the Lord GOD of Hosts has set a day of tumult and trampling and confusion in the Valley of Vision—of breaking down the walls and crying to the mountains.

5 主——万军之耶和华已经定了日子， 要使异象谷饱受恐慌、 失败和混乱， 城墙被攻破， 哭喊声响彻山间。

6 Elam takes up a quiver, with chariots and horsemen, and Kir uncovers the shield.

6 以拦人带着箭袋， 率领战车和骑兵前来， 吉珥人也亮出盾牌。

7 Your choicest valleys are full of chariots, and horsemen are posted at the gates.

7 你们佳美的山谷中布满战车， 骑兵在你们的城门前列阵。

8 He has uncovered the defenses of Judah. On that day you looked to the weapons in the House of the Forest.

8 主除去了犹大的防卫。 那时，你们寄望于藏在林宫里的兵器。

9 You saw that there were many breaches in the walls of the City of David. You collected water from the lower pool.

9 你们看见大卫城破口累累，你们储存下池的水，

10 You counted the houses of Jerusalem and tore them down to strengthen the wall.

10 数点耶路撒冷城的房屋，把房屋拆掉修补城墙。

11 You built a reservoir between the walls for the waters of the ancient pool, but you did not look to the One who made it, or consider Him who planned it long ago.

11 你们又在两道城墙之间建造新的蓄水池，用来盛旧池的水。耶和华从古时已定了这一切，要使这一切发生，但你们既不仰望祂，也不理会祂。

12 On that day the Lord GOD of Hosts called for weeping and wailing, for shaven heads and the wearing of sackcloth.

12 那日，主——万军之耶和华要你们哭泣哀号， 剃光头发，身披麻衣。

13 But look, there is joy and gladness, butchering of cattle and slaughtering of sheep, eating of meat and drinking of wine: “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”

13 但你们却欢喜作乐， 宰牛杀羊，喝酒吃肉，说： “让我们吃喝吧！ 因为明天我们就死了。”

14 The LORD of Hosts has revealed in my hearing: “Until your dying day, this sin of yours will never be atoned for,” says the Lord GOD of Hosts.

14 万军之耶和华启示我说： “你们这罪到死也得不到赦免。 这是主——万军之耶和华说的。”

15 This is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: “Go, say to Shebna, the steward in charge of the palace:

15 主——万军之耶和华吩咐我去见宫廷总管舍伯那，对他说：

16 What are you doing here, and who authorized you to carve out a tomb for yourself here—to chisel your tomb in the height and cut your resting place in the rock?

16 “你在这里做什么？你凭什么在这里为自己挖坟墓，在高处为自己挖坟墓，在磐石上为自己凿安息之所？

17 Look, O mighty man! The LORD is about to shake you violently. He will take hold of you,

17 看啊，你这有权有势的人，耶和华必紧紧抓住你，把你猛力抛出去。

18 roll you into a ball, and sling you into a wide land. There you will die, and there your glorious chariots will remain—a disgrace to the house of your master.

18 祂必把你揉作一团，像球一样扔到宽阔之地。在那里，你必死亡，你华美的战车也必遭毁灭，你是你主人家的羞辱。”

19 I will remove you from office, and you will be ousted from your position.

19 耶和华对舍伯那说：“我必解除你的官职，把你从高位上拉下来。

20 On that day I will summon My servant, Eliakim son of Hilkiah.

20 “到那日，我必召来希勒迦的儿子——我的仆人以利亚敬，

21 I will clothe him with your robe and tie your sash around him. I will put your authority in his hand, and he will be a father to the dwellers of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

21 给他穿上你的朝服，系上你的腰带，把你的权柄交给他。他必像父亲一样保护耶路撒冷的居民和犹大人。

22 I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.

22 我必把大卫家的钥匙放在他的肩头。他开启的，没有人能关；他关闭的，没有人能开。

23 I will drive him like a peg into a firm place, and he will be a throne of glory for the house of his father.

23 我要使他像深嵌在坚固之处的橛子一样稳固，他必给他的家族带来尊荣。

24 So they will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house: the descendants and the offshoots—all the lesser vessels, from bowls to every kind of jar.

24 他的家族及其子孙后代都靠他得荣耀，如同杯子和酒瓶等小器皿挂在一个橛子上。”

25 In that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, the peg driven into a firm place will give way; it will be sheared off and fall, and the load upon it will be cut down.” Indeed, the LORD has spoken.

25 万军之耶和华说：“到那日，牢牢钉在坚固之处的橛子必松动，被砍落在地上，挂在上面的东西必被除掉。这是耶和华说的。”
