Isaiah 6

1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted; and the train of His robe filled the temple.

1 乌西雅王驾崩那年，我看见主坐在高高的宝座上，祂的衣袍下垂，充满圣殿。

2 Above Him stood seraphim, each having six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.

2 在祂上方侍立着撒拉弗天使，他们各有三对翅膀：一对遮脸，一对遮脚，一对飞翔。

3 And they were calling out to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of Hosts; all the earth is full of His glory.”

3 他们彼此呼喊： “圣哉，圣哉，圣哉， 万军之耶和华！ 祂的荣耀充满大地。”

4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook, and the temple was filled with smoke.

4 他们的呼喊声震动圣殿门槛的基石，圣殿里烟云弥漫。

5 Then I said: “Woe is me, for I am ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips dwelling among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of Hosts.”

5 那时我说：“我有祸了！我要灭亡了！因为我嘴唇不洁净，又住在嘴唇不洁净的民中，并且亲眼看见了大君王——万军之耶和华。”

6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a glowing coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar.

6 有个撒拉弗天使用火钳从祭坛上取了一块燃烧的炭，飞到我面前，

7 And with it he touched my mouth and said: “Now that this has touched your lips, your iniquity is removed and your sin is atoned for.”

7 用炭碰我的嘴，说：“看啊，这炭碰了你的嘴唇，你的过犯已被除掉，你的罪恶已被赦免。”

8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying: “Whom shall I send? Who will go for Us?” And I said: “Here am I. Send me!”

8 然后，我听见主说：“我可以差遣谁呢？谁肯为我们去呢？”我说：“我在这里，请差遣我！”

9 And He replied: “Go and tell this people, ‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’

9 祂说：“你去告诉这百姓， “‘你们听了又听，却不明白； 看了又看，却不领悟。’

10 Make the hearts of this people calloused; deafen their ears and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”

10 你要让这些人心灵麻木， 耳朵发背， 眼睛昏花， 免得他们眼睛看见， 耳朵听见， 心里明白， 回心转意，就得到医治。”

11 Then I asked: “How long, O Lord?” And He replied: “Until the cities lie ruined and without inhabitant, until the houses are left unoccupied and the land is desolate and ravaged,

11 我说：“主啊，这要到什么时候呢？”祂说： “直到城邑荒凉，无人居住，房屋空置， 土地荒废的时候。

12 until the LORD has driven men far away and the land is utterly forsaken.

12 那时，我必把他们赶到远方， 他们的土地必大量荒废。

13 And though a tenth remains in the land, it will be burned again. As the terebinth and oak leave stumps when felled, so the holy seed will be a stump in the land.”

13 即使境内只剩下十分之一的人， 也必被消灭。 然而，就像砍掉松树和橡树后必留下树桩， 圣洁的苗裔就是残留的树桩。”
