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).

57:1

ἴδετε ὡς ὁ δίκαιος ἀπώλετο καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐκδέχεται τῇ καρδίᾳ καὶ ἄνδρες δίκαιοι αἴρονται καὶ οὐδεὶς κατανοεῖ ἀπὸ γὰρ προσώπου ἀδικίας ἦρται ὁ δίκαιος

See how the righteous one perished, and no one takes it to heart; and righteous men are taken away, and no one considers. For from the face of injustice the righteous one has been taken away.

你們看，義人死亡，無人放在心上；義人被除去，也無人留意；原來義人是被除去，脫離不義的面前。

57:2

ἔσται ἐν εἰρήνῃ ἡ ταφὴ αὐτοῦ ἦρται ἐκ τοῦ μέσου

His burial shall be in peace; he has been taken away from the midst.

他的安葬必在平安之中；他已從人間被除去。

57:3

ὑμεῖς δὲ προσαγάγετε ὧδε υἱοὶ ἄνομοι σπέρμα μοιχῶν καὶ πόρνης

But you, draw near here, you lawless sons, seed of adulterers and of a prostitute.

但你們這些不法之子、姦夫和妓女的後裔，都近前來到這裡。

57:4

ἐν τίνι ἐνετρυφήσατε καὶ ἐπὶ τίνα ἠνοίξατε τὸ στόμα ὑμῶν καὶ ἐπὶ τίνα ἐχαλάσατε τὴν γλῶσσαν ὑμῶν οὐχ ὑμεῖς ἐστε τέκνα ἀπωλείας σπέρμα ἄνομον

In whom did you take your pleasure? Against whom did you open your mouth? And against whom did you let loose your tongue? Are you not children of destruction, a lawless seed?

你們在誰身上尋歡作樂？向誰張口？向誰伸出舌頭？你們豈不是滅亡之子、不法的後裔嗎？

57:5

οἱ παρακαλοῦντες ἐπὶ τὰ εἴδωλα ὑπὸ δένδρα δασέα σφάζοντες τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν ἐν ταῖς φάραγξιν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν πετρῶν

You who call upon idols under leafy trees, slaughtering your children in the ravines among the rocks.

你們在茂密的樹下向偶像求告，在山谷中、在磐石之間殺了自己的兒女。

57:6

ἐκείνη σου ἡ μερίς οὗτός σου ὁ κλῆρος κἀκείνοις ἐξέχεας σπονδὰς κἀκείνοις ἀνήνεγκας θυσίας ἐπὶ τούτοις οὖν οὐκ ὀργισθήσομαι

That is your portion; this is your lot. And to them you poured out drink offerings, and to them you offered up sacrifices. Shall I then not be angry over these things?

那些就是你的分，那就是你的業；你也向它們澆了奠祭，向它們獻上了祭物。我豈能因這些事不發怒呢？

57:7

ἐπ’ ὄρος ὑψηλὸν καὶ μετέωρον ἐκεῖ σου ἡ κοίτη κἀκεῖ ἀνεβίβασας θυσίας

On a high and lofty mountain, there is your bed, and there you brought up sacrifices.

你在高聳的山上安設了床榻，也在那裡上去獻祭。

57:8

καὶ ὀπίσω τῶν σταθμῶν τῆς θύρας σου ἔθηκας μνημόσυνά σου ᾤου ὅτι ἐὰν ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ ἀποστῇς πλεῖόν τι ἕξεις ἠγάπησας τοὺς κοιμωμένους μετὰ σοῦ

And behind the doorposts of your door you set up your memorials. You thought that if you departed from me you would gain something more; you loved those who lay with you.

你在門後、門框之後設立你的記號；你以為離開我就能多得什麼，你喜愛那些與你同寢的人。

57:9

καὶ ἐπλήθυνας τὴν πορνείαν σου μετ’ αὐτῶν καὶ πολλοὺς ἐποίησας τοὺς μακρὰν ἀπὸ σοῦ καὶ ἀπέστειλας πρέσβεις ὑπὲρ τὰ ὅριά σου καὶ ἀπέστρεψας καὶ ἐταπεινώθης ἕως ᾅδου

And you multiplied your whoring with them, and you made many those who were far from you; and you sent envoys beyond your borders, and you turned back and were brought low as far as Hades.

你與他們大行淫亂，使那些遠離你的人增多；你打發使者到你境界以外，又轉回來，卑微下去，直到陰間。
