ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. 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).

42:1
Ιακωβ ὁ παῖς μου ἀντιλήμψομαι αὐτοῦ Ισραηλ ὁ ἐκλεκτός μου προσεδέξατο αὐτὸν ἡ ψυχή μου ἔδωκα τὸ πνεῦμά μου ἐπ’ αὐτόν κρίσιν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἐξοίσει
Jacob is my servant; I will uphold him. Israel is my chosen; my soul has accepted him. I have put my spirit upon him; he will bring forth judgment to the nations.
雅各是我的僕人,我必扶持他;以色列是我所揀選的,我的心悅納他。我已將我的靈賜給他,他必將公理傳給列國。
42:2
οὐ κεκράξεται οὐδὲ ἀνήσει οὐδὲ ἀκουσθήσεται ἔξω ἡ φωνὴ αὐτοῦ
He will not cry out, nor slacken, nor will his voice be heard outside.
他不喧嚷,也不鬆懈,他的聲音也不在外面被人聽見。
42:3
κάλαμον τεθλασμένον οὐ συντρίψει καὶ λίνον καπνιζόμενον οὐ σβέσει ἀλλὰ εἰς ἀλήθειαν ἐξοίσει κρίσιν
A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not quench, but he will bring forth judgment in truth.
壓傷的蘆葦,他不折斷;將殘冒煙的燈心,他不吹滅;他卻要憑真實將公理傳出。
42:4
ἀναλάμψει καὶ οὐ θραυσθήσεται ἕως ἂν θῇ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς κρίσιν καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ ἔθνη ἐλπιοῦσιν
He will blaze up and will not be crushed, until he establishes judgment on the earth; and in his name the nations will hope.
他必發出光來,必不被壓碎,直到他在地上設立公理;萬國都要仰望他的名。
42:5
οὕτως λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὁ ποιήσας τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ πήξας αὐτόν ὁ στερεώσας τὴν γῆν καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ καὶ διδοὺς πνοὴν τῷ λαῷ τῷ ἐπ’ αὐτῆς καὶ πνεῦμα τοῖς πατοῦσιν αὐτήν
Thus says the Lord God, who made the sky and fixed it, who established the earth and the things in it, and who gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk on it:
主神如此說,就是那造天、張天的,那堅立大地和地上之物的,那把氣息賜給地上之民、把靈賜給行在其上之人的:
42:6
ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἐκάλεσά σε ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ κρατήσω τῆς χειρός σου καὶ ἐνισχύσω σε καὶ ἔδωκά σε εἰς διαθήκην γένους εἰς φῶς ἐθνῶν
I, the Lord God, called you in righteousness, and I will take hold of your hand and strengthen you; and I gave you as a covenant to a race, as a light to nations,
我主神憑公義呼召了你,我必攙扶你的手,使你剛強;我已立你作萬族之約,作列國之光,
42:7
ἀνοῖξαι ὀφθαλμοὺς τυφλῶν ἐξαγαγεῖν ἐκ δεσμῶν δεδεμένους καὶ ἐξ οἴκου φυλακῆς καθημένους ἐν σκότει
to open the eyes of the blind, to bring out from bonds those who are bound, and from the prison house those sitting in darkness.
為要開瞎子的眼,領被捆綁的脫離鎖鏈,領坐在黑暗中的出牢獄。
42:8
ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεός τοῦτό μού ἐστιν τὸ ὄνομα τὴν δόξαν μου ἑτέρῳ οὐ δώσω οὐδὲ τὰς ἀρετάς μου τοῖς γλυπτοῖς
I am the Lord God; this is my name. My glory I will not give to another, nor my excellences to the carved images.
我是主神,這是我的名;我必不將我的榮耀歸給別人,也不將我的稱讚歸給雕刻的偶像。
42:9
τὰ ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς ἰδοὺ ἥκασιν καὶ καινὰ ἃ ἐγὼ ἀναγγελῶ καὶ πρὸ τοῦ ἀνατεῖλαι ἐδηλώθη ὑμῖν
Behold, the things from the beginning have come, and new things which I will declare; and before they sprang up they were shown to you.
看哪,起初的事已經來到;新事也是我要宣告的,在它們發生以先,就已向你們顯明了。
42:10
ὑμνήσατε τῷ κυρίῳ ὕμνον καινόν ἡ ἀρχὴ αὐτοῦ δοξάζετε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἀπ’ ἄκρου τῆς γῆς οἱ καταβαίνοντες εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ πλέοντες αὐτήν αἱ νῆσοι καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες αὐτάς
Sing to the Lord a new hymn — his dominion! Glorify his name from the end of the earth, you who go down to the sea and sail upon it, the islands and those who inhabit them.
你們要向主唱新歌 —— 這是他的統治 —— 要從地極榮耀他的名;你們這下到海中、在海上航行的,眾海島和住在其上的,都當如此。
42:11
εὐφράνθητι ἔρημος καὶ αἱ κῶμαι αὐτῆς ἐπαύλεις καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Κηδαρ εὐφρανθήσονται οἱ κατοικοῦντες Πέτραν ἀπ’ ἄκρων τῶν ὀρέων βοήσουσιν
Rejoice, O wilderness, and its villages, the farmsteads; and those who inhabit Kedar will rejoice. Those who inhabit Petra will shout from the tops of the mountains.
曠野和其中的村莊、農舍啊,你要歡喜;住基達的人也必歡喜。住彼特拉的人必從山頂呼喊。
42:12
δώσουσιν τῷ θεῷ δόξαν τὰς ἀρετὰς αὐτοῦ ἐν ταῖς νήσοις ἀναγγελοῦσιν
They will give glory to God; they will declare his excellences in the islands.
他們必將榮耀歸給神,在眾海島中宣揚他的稱讚。
42:13
κύριος ὁ θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων ἐξελεύσεται καὶ συντρίψει πόλεμον ἐπεγερεῖ ζῆλον καὶ βοήσεται ἐπὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ μετὰ ἰσχύος
The Lord God of the forces will go out and will shatter war; he will stir up zeal and will shout against his enemies with strength.
萬軍之主神必出去,必打碎戰爭;他必激動熱心,大有能力向他的仇敵吶喊。
42:14
ἐσιώπησα μὴ καὶ ἀεὶ σιωπήσομαι καὶ ἀνέξομαι ἐκαρτέρησα ὡς ἡ τίκτουσα ἐκστήσω καὶ ξηρανῶ ἅμα
I have kept silent — shall I also be silent forever and hold back? I endured like a woman giving birth; I will astonish and will dry up together.
我一向靜默,難道要永遠靜默、永遠忍耐嗎?我像產婦一樣強忍住了;如今我要使人驚惶,也要一同使之乾涸。
42:15
καὶ θήσω ποταμοὺς εἰς νήσους καὶ ἕλη ξηρανῶ
And I will turn rivers into islands, and I will dry up marshes.
我要使江河變為海島,使沼澤乾涸。
42:16
καὶ ἄξω τυφλοὺς ἐν ὁδῷ ᾗ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν καὶ τρίβους οὓς οὐκ ᾔδεισαν πατῆσαι ποιήσω αὐτούς ποιήσω αὐτοῖς τὸ σκότος εἰς φῶς καὶ τὰ σκολιὰ εἰς εὐθεῖαν ταῦτα τὰ ῥήματα ποιήσω καὶ οὐκ ἐγκαταλείψω αὐτούς
And I will lead the blind in a way they did not know, and I will make them tread paths they did not know; I will turn the darkness into light for them and the crooked things into straight. These words I will do, and I will not forsake them.
我要引瞎子行他們所不認識的道,使他們踏上他們所不知道的路徑;我要使他們的黑暗變為光明,使彎曲變為平直。這些話我必成就,必不撇棄他們。
42:17
αὐτοὶ δὲ ἀπεστράφησαν εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω αἰσχύνθητε αἰσχύνην οἱ πεποιθότες ἐπὶ τοῖς γλυπτοῖς οἱ λέγοντες τοῖς χωνευτοῖς ὑμεῖς ἐστε θεοὶ ἡμῶν
But they turned back. Be ashamed with shame, you who trust in carved images, who say to the cast images: You are our gods.
他們卻轉身退後。你們這些倚靠雕像、對鑄像說「你們是我們的神」的人哪,你們要大大蒙羞。
42:18
οἱ κωφοί ἀκούσατε καὶ οἱ τυφλοί ἀναβλέψατε ἰδεῖν
You deaf, hear! And you blind, look up to see!
聾子啊,你們要聽;瞎子啊,你們要抬頭觀看。
42:19
καὶ τίς τυφλὸς ἀλλ’ ἢ οἱ παῖδές μου καὶ κωφοὶ ἀλλ’ ἢ οἱ κυριεύοντες αὐτῶν καὶ ἐτυφλώθησαν οἱ δοῦλοι τοῦ θεοῦ
And who is blind but my servants? And deaf but those who rule over them? Even the servants of God have been blinded.
誰是瞎眼的呢?不就是我的僕人嗎?誰是耳聾的呢?不就是轄管他們的人嗎?神的僕人竟成了瞎眼的。
42:20
εἴδετε πλεονάκις καὶ οὐκ ἐφυλάξασθε ἠνοιγμένα τὰ ὦτα καὶ οὐκ ἠκούσατε
You have seen many times and did not keep watch; the ears were opened, and you did not hear.
你們屢次看見,卻不謹守;耳朵開通,卻不聽見。
42:21
κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἐβούλετο ἵνα δικαιωθῇ καὶ μεγαλύνῃ αἴνεσιν καὶ εἶδον
The Lord God resolved that he should be justified and magnify praise. And I saw:
主神定意要使他得稱為義,要使讚美為大。我也看見了:
42:22
καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ λαὸς πεπρονομευμένος καὶ διηρπασμένος ἡ γὰρ παγὶς ἐν τοῖς ταμιείοις πανταχοῦ καὶ ἐν οἴκοις ἅμα ὅπου ἔκρυψαν αὐτούς ἐγένοντο εἰς προνομήν καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ ἐξαιρούμενος ἅρπαγμα καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ λέγων ἀπόδος
And the people became plundered and despoiled; for the snare is everywhere in the storerooms and in the houses together, where they hid them. They became plunder, and there was no one to rescue the spoil, and there was no one saying: Give it back.
這百姓卻成了被擄掠、被搶奪的;因為羅網處處在內室,也同在各家中,他們就把人藏在那裡。他們成了掠物,卻無人搶救,也無人說:「交還回來。」
42:23
τίς ἐν ὑμῖν ὃς ἐνωτιεῖται ταῦτα εἰσακούσεται εἰς τὰ ἐπερχόμενα
Who among you will give ear to these things and listen to what is coming?
你們中間誰肯側耳聽這些事,留心聽將來的事呢?
42:24
τίς ἔδωκεν εἰς διαρπαγὴν Ιακωβ καὶ Ισραηλ τοῖς προνομεύουσιν αὐτόν οὐχὶ ὁ θεός ᾧ ἡμάρτοσαν αὐτῷ καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλοντο ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ πορεύεσθαι οὐδὲ ἀκούειν τοῦ νόμου αὐτοῦ
Who gave Jacob over to plunder, and Israel to those who despoiled him? Was it not God, against whom they sinned, and they were not willing to walk in his ways nor to hear his law?
誰把雅各交給搶奪的,把以色列交給擄掠他的呢?豈不是神嗎?他們得罪了他,不肯遵行他的道路,也不肯聽從他的律法。
42:25
καὶ ἐπήγαγεν ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς ὀργὴν θυμοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ κατίσχυσεν αὐτοὺς πόλεμος καὶ οἱ συμφλέγοντες αὐτοὺς κύκλῳ καὶ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν ἕκαστος αὐτῶν οὐδὲ ἔθεντο ἐπὶ ψυχήν
And he brought upon them the anger of his wrath, and war overpowered them, and those who set them ablaze all around; and each of them did not know it, nor did they lay it to heart.
他就把烈怒傾倒在他們身上,戰爭也勝過了他們,四圍有焚燒他們的;他們各人卻不知道,也不放在心上。
