ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.

59:1
Ecce non est abbreviata manus Domini, ut salvare nequeat, neque aggravata est auris ejus, ut non exaudiat.
Behold, Yahweh’s hand is not shortened, that it can’t save; nor his ear dull, that it can’t hear.
耶和華的膀臂並非縮短，不能拯救， 耳朵並非發沉，不能聽見，
59:2
Sed iniquitates vestrae diviserunt inter vos et Deum vestrum ; et peccata vestra absconderunt faciem ejus a vobis, ne exaudiret.
But your iniquities have separated you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.
但你們的罪孽使你們與上帝隔絕； 你們的罪惡使他掩面不聽你們。
59:3
Manus enim vestrae pollutae sunt sanguine, et digiti vestri iniquitate ; labia vestra locuta sunt mendacium, et lingua vestra iniquitatem fatur.
For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity. Your lips have spoken lies. Your tongue mutters wickedness.
因你們的手被血沾染， 你們的指頭被罪孽沾污， 你們的嘴唇說謊言， 你們的舌頭出惡語。
59:4
Non est qui invocet justitiam, neque est qui judicet vere : sed confidunt in nihilo, et loquuntur vanitates ; conceperunt laborem, et pepererunt iniquitatem.
No one sues in righteousness, and no one pleads in truth. They trust in vanity and speak lies. They conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.
無一人按公義告狀， 無一人憑誠實辯白； 都倚靠虛妄，說謊言。 所懷的是毒害； 所生的是罪孽。
59:5
Ova aspidum ruperunt, et telas araneae texuerunt. Qui comederit de ovis eorum, morietur ; et quod confotum est, erumpet in regulum.
They hatch adders’ eggs and weave the spider’s web. He who eats of their eggs dies; and that which is crushed breaks out into a viper.
他們菢毒蛇蛋， 結蜘蛛網； 人吃這蛋必死。 這蛋被踏，必出蝮蛇。
59:6
Telae eorum non erunt in vestimentum, neque operientur operibus suis ; opera eorum opera inutilia, et opus iniquitatis in manibus eorum.
Their webs won’t become garments. They won’t cover themselves with their works. Their works are works of iniquity, and acts of violence are in their hands.
所結的網不能成為衣服； 所做的也不能遮蓋自己。 他們的行為都是罪孽； 手所做的都是強暴。
59:7
Pedes eorum ad malum currunt, et festinant ut effundant sanguinem innocentem ; cogitationes eorum cogitationes inutiles : vastitas et contritio in viis eorum.
Their feet run to evil, and they hurry to shed innocent blood. Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity. Desolation and destruction are in their paths.
他們的腳奔跑行惡； 他們急速流無辜人的血； 意念都是罪孽， 所經過的路都荒涼毀滅。
59:8
Viam pacis nescierunt, et non est judicium in gressibus eorum ; semitae eorum incurvatae sunt eis : omnis qui calcat in eis, ignorat pacem.
They don’t know the way of peace; and there is no justice in their ways. They have made crooked paths for themselves; whoever goes in them doesn’t know peace.
平安的路，他們不知道； 所行的事沒有公平。 他們為自己修彎曲的路； 凡行此路的都不知道平安。
59:9
Propter hoc elongatum est judicium a nobis, et non apprehendet nos justitia. Exspectavimus lucem, et ecce tenebrae ; splendorem, et in tenebris ambulavimus.
Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness doesn’t overtake us. We look for light, but see darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.
因此，公平離我們遠， 公義追不上我們。 我們指望光亮，卻是黑暗， 指望光明，卻行幽暗。
59:10
Palpavimus sicut caeci parietem, et quasi absque oculis attrectavimus : impegimus meridie quasi in tenebris ; in caliginosis quasi mortui.
We grope for the wall like the blind. Yes, we grope as those who have no eyes. We stumble at noon as if it were twilight. Among those who are strong, we are like dead men.
我們摸索牆壁，好像瞎子； 我們摸索，如同無目之人。 我們晌午絆腳，如在黃昏一樣； 我們在肥壯人中，像死人一般。
59:11
Rugiemus quasi ursi omnes, et quasi columbae meditantes gememus : exspectavimus judicium, et non est ; salutem, et elongata est a nobis.
We all roar like bears and moan sadly like doves. We look for justice, but there is none, for salvation, but it is far off from us.
我們咆哮如熊， 哀鳴如鴿； 指望公平，卻是沒有； 指望救恩，卻遠離我們。
59:12
Multiplicatae sunt enim iniquitates nostrae coram te, et peccata nostra responderunt nobis, quia scelera nostra nobiscum et iniquitates nostras cognovimus.
For our transgressions are multiplied before you, and our sins testify against us; for our transgressions are with us, and as for our iniquities, we know them:
我們的過犯在你面前增多， 罪惡作見證告我們； 過犯與我們同在。 至於我們的罪孽，我們都知道：
59:13
Peccare et mentiri contra Dominum, et aversi sumus ne iremus post tergum Dei nostri, ut loqueremur calumniam et transgressionem ; concepimus et locuti sumus de corde verba mendacii.
transgressing and denying Yahweh, and turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
就是悖逆、不認識耶和華， 轉去不跟從我們的上帝， 說欺壓和叛逆的話， 心懷謊言，隨即說出。
59:14
Et conversum est retrorsum judicium, et justitia longe stetit, quia corruit in platea veritas, et aequitas non potuit ingredi.
Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has fallen in the street, and uprightness can’t enter.
並且公平轉而退後， 公義站在遠處； 誠實在街上仆倒， 正直也不得進入。
59:15
Et facta est veritas in oblivionem, et qui recessit a malo, praedae patuit. Et vidit Dominus, et malum apparuit in oculis ejus, quia non est judicium.
Yes, truth is lacking; and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey. Yahweh saw it, and it displeased him that there was no justice.
誠實少見； 離惡的人反成掠物。 耶和華準備拯救他的子民 那時，耶和華看見沒有公平， 甚不喜悅。
59:16
Et vidit quia non est vir, et aporiatus est, quia non est qui occurrat ; et salvavit sibi brachium suum, et justitia ejus ipsa confirmavit eum.
He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor. Therefore his own arm brought salvation to him; and his righteousness sustained him.
他見無人拯救， 無人代求，甚為詫異， 就用自己的膀臂施行拯救， 以公義扶持自己。
59:17
Indutus est justitia ut lorica, et galea salutis in capite ejus ; indutus est vestimentis ultionis, et opertus est quasi pallio zeli :
He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on his head. He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a mantle.
他以公義為鎧甲 ， 以拯救為頭盔， 以報仇為衣服， 以熱心為外袍。
59:18
sicut ad vindictam quasi ad retributionem indignationis hostibus suis, et vicissitudinem inimicis suis ; insulis vicem reddet.
According to their deeds, he will repay as appropriate: wrath to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies. He will repay the islands their due.
他必按人的行為施報， 惱怒他的敵人， 報復他的仇敵， 向眾海島施行報應。
59:19
Et timebunt qui ab occidente nomen Domini, et qui ab ortu solis gloriam ejus, cum venerit quasi fluvius violentus quem spiritus Domini cogit ;
So they will fear Yahweh’s name from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come as a rushing stream, which Yahweh’s breath drives.
如此，人從日落之處必敬畏耶和華的名， 從日出之地也必敬畏他的榮耀； 因為仇敵好像急流的河水沖來， 是耶和華之氣所驅逐的。
59:20
et venerit Sion redemptor, et eis qui redeunt ab iniquitate in Jacob, dicit Dominus.
“A Redeemer will come to Zion, and to those who turn from disobedience in Jacob,” says Yahweh.
必有一位救贖主來到錫安－ 雅各族中轉離過犯的人那裏。 這是耶和華說的。
59:21
Hoc foedus meum cum eis, dicit Dominus : spiritus meus qui est in te, et verba mea quae posui in ore tuo, non recedent de ore tuo, et de ore seminis tui, et de ore seminis seminis tui, dicit Dominus, amodo et usque in sempiternum.
“As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says Yahweh. “My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your offspring, nor out of the mouth of your offspring’s offspring,” says Yahweh, “from now on and forever.”
耶和華說：「至於我與他們所立的約乃是這樣：我加給你的靈，傳給你的話，必不離你的口，也不離你後裔與你後裔之後裔的口，從今直到永遠；這是耶和華說的。」
