1 "Behold, my servant, whom I uphold,
my chosen, in whom my soul delights:
I have put my Spirit on him.
He will bring justice to the nations.
2 He will not shout,
nor raise his voice,
nor cause it to be heard in the street.
3 He won’t break a bruised reed.
He won’t quench a dimly burning wick.
He will faithfully bring justice.
4 He will not fail nor be discouraged,
until he has set justice in the earth,
and the islands wait for his law."
5 God Yahweh,
he who created the heavens and stretched them out,
he who spread out the earth and that which comes out of it,
he who gives breath to its people and spirit to those who walk in it, says:
6 "I, Yahweh, have called you in righteousness.
I will hold your hand.
I will keep you,
and make you a covenant for the people,
as a light for the nations,
7 to open the blind eyes,
to bring the prisoners out of the dungeon,
and those who sit in darkness out of the prison.
8 "I am Yahweh.
That is my name.
I will not give my glory to another,
nor my praise to engraved images.
9 Behold, the former things have happened
and I declare new things.
I tell you about them before they come up."
10 Sing to Yahweh a new song,
and his praise from the end of the earth,
you who go down to the sea,
and all that is therein,
the islands and their inhabitants.
11 Let the wilderness and its cities raise their voices,
with the villages that Kedar inhabits.
Let the inhabitants of Sela sing.
Let them shout from the top of the mountains!
12 Let them give glory to Yahweh,
and declare his praise in the islands.
13 Yahweh will go out like a mighty man.
He will stir up zeal like a man of war.
He will raise a war cry.
Yes, he will shout aloud.
He will triumph over his enemies.
14 "I have been silent a long time.
I have been quiet and restrained myself.
Now I will cry out like a travailing woman. I will both gasp and pant.
15 I will destroy mountains and hills,
and dry up all their herbs.
I will make the rivers islands,
and will dry up the pools.
16 I will bring the blind by a way that they don’t know.
I will lead them in paths that they don’t know.
I will make darkness light before them,
and crooked places straight.
I will do these things,
and I will not forsake them.
17 "Those who trust in engraved images,
who tell molten images,
‘You are our gods,’
will be turned back.
They will be utterly disappointed.
18 "Hear, you deaf,
and look, you blind,
that you may see.
19 Who is blind, but my servant?
Or who is as deaf as my messenger whom I send?
Who is as blind as he who is at peace,
and as blind as Yahweh’s servant?
20 You see many things, but don’t observe.
His ears are open, but he doesn’t listen.
21 It pleased Yahweh, for his righteousness’ sake, to magnify the law
and make it honorable.
22 But this is a robbed and plundered people.
All of them are snared in holes,
and they are hidden in prisons.
They have become captives, and no one delivers,
and a plunder, and no one says, ‘Restore them!’
23 Who is there among you who will give ear to this?
Who will listen and hear for the time to come?
24 Who gave Jacob as plunder,
and Israel to the robbers?
Didn’t Yahweh, he against whom we have sinned?
For they would not walk in his ways,
and they disobeyed his law.
25 Therefore he poured the fierceness of his anger on him,
and the strength of battle.
It set him on fire all around, but he didn’t know.
It burned him, but he didn’t take it to heart."
1 看哪！ 这是我的仆人， 我扶持他； 我所拣选的， 我的心喜悦他； 我已经把我的灵赐给他， 他必把公理带给万国。
2 他不呼喊， 也不扬声， 也不叫人在街上听见他的声音。
3 压伤的芦苇， 他不折断； 将熄灭的灯火， 他不吹灭； 他忠实地传出公理。
4 他不灰心， 也不沮丧， 直到他在地上设立公理， 众海岛的人都等候他的教训。
5 那创造诸天， 展开穹苍， 铺张大地和大地所出的一切， 赐气息给地上的众人， 又赐灵性给在地上行的人的耶和华 神这样说：
6 "我耶和华凭着公义呼召了你； 我必紧拉着你的手， 我必保护你， 立你作人民的约， 作列国的光，
7 为要开瞎子的眼， 领被囚的出牢狱， 领住在黑暗中的出监牢。
8 我是耶和华， 这是我的名； 我必不把我的荣耀归给别人， 也不把我当受的称赞归给雕刻的偶像。
9 看哪！ 先前预言过的事已经成就了， 现在我说明新的事； 它们还没有发生以前， 我就先说给你们听了。"
10 所有航海的和海中所充满的， 众海岛和其上的居民哪！ 你们都要向耶和华唱新歌， 从地极向他发出赞美。
11 愿旷野和其中的城镇都扬声； 愿基达人居住的村庄都高呼； 愿西拉的居民都欢呼， 在山顶上吶喊。
12 愿他们把荣耀归给耶和华， 在众海岛中宣扬对他的颂赞。
13 耶和华必像勇士出战， 必像战士激动热心； 他要呼喊， 大声吶喊， 要向仇敌显出自己的威猛。
14 我已经很久缄默不言， 闭口不语， 但现在我要像待产的妇人一样呼喊， 我要急速地喘气。
15 我必使大山小山都变为荒场， 使一切草木都枯干； 我要使江河变为干地， 使水池干涸。
16 我必领瞎子走陌生的道， 带他们走他们不知道的路。我必在他们面前使黑暗变为光明， 使弯曲的地方变为平直。这些事我都要作， 决不放弃。
17 那些倚靠偶像， 对铸像说： "你们是我们的神"的， 必被赶逐， 全然蒙羞。
18 聋子啊！ 你们要听。瞎子啊！ 你们要留心去看。
19 有谁比我的仆人更瞎呢？有谁比我差派的使者更聋呢？有谁瞎眼像那与我立了和约的呢？有谁瞎眼像耶和华的仆人呢？
20 你们看见了许多的事， 却没有留心， 耳朵开着， 却没有听见。
21 耶和华为自己公义的缘故， 喜欢使律法为大为尊。
22 但这人民是被抢劫和被掠夺的， 全都困陷在洞穴中， 被收藏在监牢里； 他们作了掠物， 无人搭救； 他们成了掳物， 无人说： "要归还！ "
23 你们中间谁肯听这话呢？谁肯从今以后留心听呢？
24 谁把雅各交出来给掠夺者？谁把以色列交给抢劫的呢？岂不是耶和华， 就是我们得罪的那位吗？因为他们不肯遵行他的道， 也不肯听从他的律法。
25 因此， 他把他猛烈的怒气和惨酷的战争， 倾倒在他身上； 这在他四周如火烧起来， 他还不知道； 把他烧着了， 他也不放在心上。
