1 Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest? 2 For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word. 3 He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog’s neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine’s blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations. 4 I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.

5 Hear the word of the LORD, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed. 6 A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that rendereth recompence to his enemies. 7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. 8 Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. 9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God. 10 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her: 11 That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory. 12 For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees. 13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. 14 And when ye see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his servants, and his indignation toward his enemies.

15 For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. 16 For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many. 17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD. 18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory. 19 And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles. 20 And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the LORD out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD. 21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the LORD. 22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD. 24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.

1 耶和华这样说： "天是我的宝座， 地是我的脚凳； 你们要在哪里为我建造殿宇呢？怎样的地方才是我安息的所在呢？"

2 耶和华说： "这一切都是我亲手所造的， 所以它们就有了。以下这种人是我要垂顾的， 就是谦卑、心灵伤痛、因我的话而战兢的人。

3 宰牛献祭， 又杀人， 献羊羔为祭， 又打折狗的颈项； 献上素祭， 又献上猪血； 烧乳香作记念祭， 又称颂虚无之神； 他们选择他们自己的道路， 他们的心里喜悦他们那些可憎恶的事。

4 所以， 我也必选择迷惑他们的事， 使他们所惧怕的临到他们身上； 因为我呼唤你们， 却没有人回答； 我说话， 你们都不听， 反倒行我眼中看为恶的事， 选择我所不喜悦的事。"

5 因耶和华的话而战兢的人哪！ 你们要听他的话。他说： "你们的兄弟， 就是那些憎恨你们、因我的名赶走你们的， 曾说： ‘愿耶和华得荣耀； 让我们看见你们的喜乐。’他们却要蒙羞。

6 听啊！ 有喧嚷的声音出自城中； 有声音出于殿里。这是耶和华向他的仇敌施行报应的声音！

7 锡安没有绞痛就生产； 疼痛没有临到她身上， 就生了一个男孩。

8 像以下这样的事， 谁曾听过呢？像下面这些事， 谁曾见过呢？一地之民能在一天之内就产生吗？一国的人能在一时之间就生下来吗？但锡安一绞痛， 就生下了儿女。

9 耶和华说： ‘我既然使她临盆， 又怎能不使她生产呢？’你的 神说： ‘我既然使她生产， 又怎能使她闭胎不生呢？’

10 所有爱慕耶路撒冷的人哪！ 你们都要与她一同欢喜， 都要因她快乐； 所有为耶路撒冷哀悼的人哪！ 你们都要与她一同尽情欢乐。

11 好使你们能在她那安慰人的怀里吃奶得饱； 使你们能从她丰盛的荣耀里挤奶而吃， 满心喜乐。"

12 因为耶和华这样说： "看哪！ 我必使平安达到她那里， 好像江河一样， 使列国的财宝达到她那里， 如同涨溢的河流一般； 你们要吮奶， 你们必被抱在怀中， 抚弄在膝上。

13 人怎样受他母亲的安慰， 我也怎样安慰你们； 你们要在耶路撒冷得安慰。"

14 你们看见了， 就心里快乐， 你们的骨头必像嫩草一样长起来， 耶和华的手必向他的仆人显现， 他必向他的仇敌发怒。

15 看哪！ 耶和华必在火中降临， 他的战车好像旋风； 他要以猛烈的怒气施行报应， 用火焰施行斥责。

16 因为耶和华必用火和刀剑， 在所有的人身上施行审判， 被耶和华所杀的人必定很多。

17 那些自己分别为圣， 又洁净自己， 进到园里， 在园中一个跟一个， 吃猪肉、老鼠和可憎之物。他们都必一同灭亡； 这是耶和华说的。

18 我知道他们的行为和意念； 我要来， 聚集万国万族； 他们都必来看我的荣耀。

19 我要在他们中间施行神迹， 从他们中间差遣所有逃脱的人到列国去， 就是到他施、普勒、善于拉弓的路德、土巴和雅完， 以及从未听过我的名声、从未见过我的荣耀的遥远众海岛； 他们必把我的荣耀传扬在列国中。

20 他们要从万国中用马、用车、用轿、用骡子、用独峰驼， 把你们所有的兄弟都送到我的圣山耶路撒冷来， 作供物献给耶和华， 好像以色列人用洁净的器皿把供物送到耶和华的殿一样； 这是耶和华说的。

21 耶和华说： "我也必从他们中间取些人作祭司和作利未人。"

22 耶和华说： "我所要造的新天新地怎样在我面前留存， 你们的后裔和你们的名字也必怎样长存。

23 将来每逢月朔， 每逢安息日， 所有的人都必来在我面前敬拜； 这是耶和华说的。

24 他们要出去， 观看那些悖逆我的人的尸体； 因为他们的虫是不死的， 他们的火是不灭的； 他们必成为所有人恨恶的东西。"
