48:1

Audite haec, domus Jacob, qui vocamini nomine Israël, et de aquis Juda existis ; qui juratis in nomine Domini, et Dei Israël recordamini non in veritate neque in justitia.

“Hear this, house of Jacob, you who are called by the name of Israel, and have come out of the waters of Judah. You swear by Yahweh’s name, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness—

雅各家，稱為以色列名下，從猶大水源出來的，當聽我言！你們指着耶和華的名起誓，提說以色列的上帝，卻不憑誠實，不憑公義。

48:2

De civitate enim sancta vocati sunt, et super Deum Israël constabiliti sunt : Dominus exercituum nomen ejus.

for they call themselves citizens of the holy city, and rely on the God of Israel; Yahweh of Armies is his name.

他們自稱為聖城的人，所倚靠的是名為萬軍之耶和華－以色列的上帝。

48:3

Priora ex tunc annuntiavi, et ex ore meo exierunt, et audita feci ea : repente operatus sum, et venerunt.

I have declared the former things from of old. Yes, they went out of my mouth, and I revealed them. I did them suddenly, and they happened.

主說：早先的事，我從古時說明，已經出了我的口，也是我所指示的；我忽然行做，事便成就。

48:4

Scivi enim quia durus es tu, et nervus ferreus cervix tua, et frons tua aerea.

Because I knew that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your brow bronze;

因為我素來知道你是頑梗的－你的頸項是鐵的；你的額是銅的。

48:5

Praedixi tibi ex tunc ; antequam venirent, indicavi tibi, ne forte diceres : Idola mea fecerunt haec, et sculptilia mea et conflatilia mandaverunt ista.

therefore I have declared it to you from of old; before it came to pass I showed it to you; lest you should say, ‘My idol has done them. My engraved image and my molten image has commanded them.’

所以，我從古時將這事給你說明，在未成以先指示你，免得你說：這些事是我的偶像所行的，是我雕刻的偶像和我鑄造的偶像所命定的。

48:6

Quae audisti, vide omnia ; vos autem, num annuntiastis ? Audita feci tibi nova ex tunc, et conservata sunt quae nescis.

You have heard it. Now see all this. And you, won’t you declare it? “I have shown you new things from this time, even hidden things, which you have not known.

你已經聽見，現在要看見這一切；你不說明嗎？從今以後，我將新事，就是你所不知道的隱密事指示你。

48:7

Nunc creata sunt et non ex tunc ; et ante diem, et non audisti ea, ne forte dicas : Ecce ego cognovi ea.

They are created now, and not from of old. Before today, you didn’t hear them, lest you should say, ‘Behold, I knew them.’

這事是現今造的，並非從古就有；在今日以先，你也未曾聽見，免得你說：這事我早已知道了。

48:8

Neque audisti, neque cognovisti, neque ex tunc aperta est auris tua : scio enim quia praevaricans praevaricaberis, et transgressorem ex utero vocavi te.

Yes, you didn’t hear. Yes, you didn’t know. Yes, from of old your ear was not opened, for I knew that you dealt very treacherously, and were called a transgressor from the womb.

你未曾聽見，未曾知道；你的耳朵從來未曾開通。我原知道你行事極其詭詐，你自從出胎以來，便稱為悖逆的。

48:9

Propter nomen meum longe faciam furorem meum, et laude mea infrenabo te, ne intereas.

For my name’s sake, I will defer my anger, and for my praise, I hold it back for you so that I don’t cut you off.

我為我的名暫且忍怒，為我的頌讚向你容忍，不將你剪除。
