Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).

50:1

οὕτως λέγει κύριος ποῖον τὸ βιβλίον τοῦ ἀποστασίου τῆς μητρὸς ὑμῶν ᾧ ἐξαπέστειλα αὐτήν ἢ τίνι ὑπόχρεῳ πέπρακα ὑμᾶς ἰδοὺ ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ὑμῶν ἐπράθητε καὶ ταῖς ἀνομίαις ὑμῶν ἐξαπέστειλα τὴν μητέρα ὑμῶν

Thus says the Lord: What kind of bill of divorce of your mother is it, by which I sent her away? Or to which creditor have I sold you? Behold, for your sins you were sold, and for your lawless deeds I sent your mother away.

主如此說：我休你們母親所用的休書是怎樣的呢？我把你們賣給了哪一個債主呢？看哪，你們是因自己的罪惡被賣的，你們的母親是因你們的不法被休的。

50:2

τί ὅτι ἦλθον καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἄνθρωπος ἐκάλεσα καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ ὑπακούων μὴ οὐκ ἰσχύει ἡ χείρ μου τοῦ ῥύσασθαι ἢ οὐκ ἰσχύω τοῦ ἐξελέσθαι ἰδοὺ τῇ ἀπειλῇ μου ἐξερημώσω τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ θήσω ποταμοὺς ἐρήμους καὶ ξηρανθήσονται οἱ ἰχθύες αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ μὴ εἶναι ὕδωρ καὶ ἀποθανοῦνται ἐν δίψει

Why is it that I came and there was no man? I called and there was none who obeyed? Is my hand not strong enough to deliver, or am I not strong enough to rescue? Behold, by my rebuke I will make the sea desolate and turn rivers into deserts; their fish shall be dried up for lack of water and shall die of thirst.

為何我來的時候，卻無人呢？我呼喚的時候，卻無人應聲呢？難道我的手沒有能力搭救嗎？難道我無力拯救嗎？看哪，我一斥責，就使海乾涸，使江河變為曠野；其中的魚因無水而乾死，因乾渴而喪命。

50:3

καὶ ἐνδύσω τὸν οὐρανὸν σκότος καὶ θήσω ὡς σάκκον τὸ περιβόλαιον αὐτοῦ

And I will clothe the heaven with darkness and make sackcloth its covering.

我要使諸天穿上黑暗，用麻布作它的遮蓋。

50:4

κύριος δίδωσίν μοι γλῶσσαν παιδείας τοῦ γνῶναι ἐν καιρῷ ἡνίκα δεῖ εἰπεῖν λόγον ἔθηκέν μοι πρωί προσέθηκέν μοι ὠτίον ἀκούειν

The Lord gives me a tongue of instruction, to know in season when a word must be spoken. He appointed the morning for me; he added to me an ear to hear.

主賜給我受教者的舌頭，使我知道在適當的時候當說什麼話。他為我定了清晨，又為我加上耳朵，使我能聽。

50:5

καὶ ἡ παιδεία κυρίου ἀνοίγει μου τὰ ὦτα ἐγὼ δὲ οὐκ ἀπειθῶ οὐδὲ ἀντιλέγω

And the Lord's instruction opens my ears; and I do not disobey nor contradict.

主的教訓開通我的耳朵；我並沒有違背，也沒有退後頂嘴。

50:6

τὸν νῶτόν μου δέδωκα εἰς μάστιγας τὰς δὲ σιαγόνας μου εἰς ῥαπίσματα τὸ δὲ πρόσωπόν μου οὐκ ἀπέστρεψα ἀπὸ αἰσχύνης ἐμπτυσμάτων

I gave my back to scourges and my cheeks to blows; and I did not turn my face away from the shame of spittings.

我將背脊給了鞭打的人，將兩頰給了掌摑的人；人辱我吐我，我並沒有掩面。

50:7

καὶ κύριος βοηθός μου ἐγενήθη διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἐνετράπην ἀλλὰ ἔθηκα τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ὡς στερεὰν πέτραν καὶ ἔγνων ὅτι οὐ μὴ αἰσχυνθῶ

And the Lord became my helper; therefore I was not put out of countenance, but I set my face like a solid rock, and I knew that I would not be put to shame.

主是幫助我的，所以我沒有蒙羞；反倒把臉放得像堅硬的磐石，我也知道我必不至羞愧。

50:8

ὅτι ἐγγίζει ὁ δικαιώσας με τίς ὁ κρινόμενός μοι ἀντιστήτω μοι ἅμα καὶ τίς ὁ κρινόμενός μοι ἐγγισάτω μοι

For he who justified me draws near. Who is it that goes to law with me? Let him stand against me at once. And who is it that goes to law with me? Let him come near to me.

因為稱我為義的近了。誰與我爭訟呢？讓他同時站起來與我對質。誰與我爭訟呢？讓他近前來就我。

50:9

ἰδοὺ κύριος βοηθεῖ μοι τίς κακώσει με ἰδοὺ πάντες ὑμεῖς ὡς ἱμάτιον παλαιωθήσεσθε καὶ ὡς σὴς καταφάγεται ὑμᾶς

Behold, the Lord helps me; who will harm me? Behold, all of you shall wear out like a garment, and like a moth it shall devour you.

看哪，主幫助我，誰能定我有害呢？看哪，你們都要像衣服漸漸舊了，要像蛀蟲把你們喫盡。

50:10

τίς ἐν ὑμῖν ὁ φοβούμενος τὸν κύριον ἀκουσάτω τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ παιδὸς αὐτοῦ οἱ πορευόμενοι ἐν σκότει οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτοῖς φῶς πεποίθατε ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι κυρίου καὶ ἀντιστηρίσασθε ἐπὶ τῷ θεῷ

Who among you fears the Lord? Let him listen to the voice of his servant. You who walk in darkness and have no light, trust in the name of the Lord and lean upon God.

你們中間誰是敬畏主的呢？讓他聽從他僕人的聲音。你們這些行在黑暗中、沒有光的人，當信靠主的名，並倚靠神。

50:11

ἰδοὺ πάντες ὑμεῖς πῦρ καίετε καὶ κατισχύετε φλόγα πορεύεσθε τῷ φωτὶ τοῦ πυρὸς ὑμῶν καὶ τῇ φλογί ᾗ ἐξεκαύσατε δῑ ἐμὲ ἐγένετο ταῦτα ὑμῖν ἐν λύπῃ κοιμηθήσεσθε

Behold, all of you kindle a fire and strengthen a flame. Walk in the light of your fire and in the flame you have kindled. These things have come to you because of me; you shall lie down in sorrow.

看哪，你們眾人點火，又煽旺火焰；你們就在自己火的光中、在你們所點的火焰裡行走吧。這些事臨到你們，是因我；你們必躺臥在愁苦之中。
