以赛亚书第9章

《圣经》以赛亚书-第9章

赛9:1 但那受过痛苦的必不再见幽暗。从前上帝使西布伦地和拿弗他利地被藐视，末后却使这沿海的路，约但河外，外邦人的加利利地得着荣耀。 (串)赛8:22|王下15:29代下16:4|赛25:9

†[吕]但那受过困苦的必不再在乌暗中。先前时候上帝使西布伦地和拿弗他利地被轻看，后来却使这沿海的道路、约但河外、外国人的加利利得到光荣。

†[思]因为遭受灾难的，必将免於黑暗。往昔上主曾使则步隆和纳斐塔里地域受了侮辱，但日後却使沿海之路，约但东岸，外方人的加里肋亚获得了光荣。

†[当代]但那些受过痛苦的人不会再遇见黑暗了。西布伦和拿弗他利从前曾经受人藐视，但日后却要使约旦河彼岸、外族人居住的加利利地得著荣耀。

†[新译]但那受过困苦的，必不再见幽暗。以前　神使西布伦和拿弗他利地被轻视，日后却要使它们在沿海之路、约旦河外和外族人的加利利，得着荣耀。（本节在《马索拉抄本》为8:23）

†[Wlb]昔受痛苦者、将免幽暗、上帝昔使西布伦与拿弗他利地受辱、后将使沿海之路、约但河外、列邦之境得荣、

†[Xdv]西布伦和拿弗他利两支族所居住的地方曾被藐视；但是在将来，这地区，就是从地中海向东伸展到约旦河东岸，包括异族居住的加利利，都要获得光荣。

†[Kjv]Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the n

†[Nkjv]Nevertheless the gloom will not be upon her who is distressed, As when at first He lightly esteemed The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, And afterward more heavily oppressed her, By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, In Galilee of the Gentile

†[BBE]In earlier times he made the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali of small value, but after that he gave it glory, by the way of the sea, on the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the nations.

†[GNT] There will be no way for them to escape from this time of trouble. The land of the tribes of Zebulun and Naphtali was once disgraced, but the future will bring honor to this region, from the Mediterranean eastward to the land on the other side of the Jor

†[NIV]Nevertheless, there will be no more gloom for those who were in distress. In the past he humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the future he will honor Galilee of the Gentiles, by the way of the sea, along the Jordan-

本会注释　　幽暗。原文的赛9:1为赛8:23。赛9：1-7与赛8章描写极端悲惨和黑暗画面的最后几节有密切的关系。在以赛亚的日子里，亚述的军队给以色列最北的两个支派──西布伦和拿弗他利，带来悲惨和“黑暗”（赛9:2）。以赛亚意识到这样的遭遇是属灵的黑暗所造成的，就以预言的目光，展望那将驱散人心灵黑暗（约1:4-9；8:12；9:5）的“大光”（第2、6、7节）。饱受苦难的地区将会看到荣耀和光明的显示。这是一幅弥赛亚带着祂生命和希望的信息降世的画面。在黑暗笼罩的世界里（见《历代愿望》第34、35页），公义的日头将要升起，其光线有医治之能（玛4:2）。
　　西布伦地。在以赛亚写下这些话的时候，以色列正处深重的灾难之中，特别是北部和东部的边界地区，因为提革拉-毗列色三世侵入了国土，占领了“基低斯、夏琐、基列、加利利和拿弗他利全地，将这些地方的居民都掳到亚述去了”（王下15:29）。
　　这沿海的路。古代道路的名称都是有意义的（见民21:22；申1:2；见@民20:17@；@申2:27@注释）。有人把“这沿海的路”认定为从大马士革和外约旦，经加利利通往地中海的著名商路（见@可2:14@注释）。也有人把这条路认定为沿着海岸向北方通往推罗和西顿的道路。
　　外邦人的加利利地。王下15:29所提到的基低斯在加利利，是一个座逃城（书20:7；21:32）。在所罗门的时代，加利利地区扩展到推罗境内（王上9:11）。“加利利”意为“圆圈”。在新约时代，加利利的疆域比原来更大。她的人口比较复杂，只有少数人犹太人，所以被称为“外邦人的加利利地”。这个地区与外部世界相连，是藉着通往北方的大马士革，幼发拉底河，美索不达米亚，推罗、小亚细亚和欧洲，南方的撒玛利亚、犹大和埃及的道路。在这个容易接触世界的地区，耶稣度过了为人类服务的大量时间。
　　得着荣耀。直译是“分量更重”，这里可能指更受重视和尊敬。第2节“黑暗”与“大光”之间的对应，似乎要求第1节也要有“痛苦”和“荣耀”的对应。

赛9:2 在黑暗中行走的百姓看见了大光；住在死荫之地的人有光照耀他们。 (串)太4:16弗5:8,14

†[吕]在黑暗中行走的人民看见了大光；住在漆黑之地的人有光照耀他们。

†[思]在黑暗中行走的百姓看见了一道皓光，光辉已射在那寄居在漆黑之地的人们身上。

†[当代]在黑暗中行走的人要看见明光照耀，住在幽暗之地的人要得著光华普照！

†[新译]行在黑暗中的人民，看见了大光；住在死荫之地的人，有光照耀他们。（本节在《马索拉抄本》为9:1）

†[Wlb]处暗之民、得见大光、居阴翳之域者、有光照之、

†[Xdv]生活在黑暗中的人已经看见大光；以往住在死荫之地的人现在有光照耀他们。

†[Kjv]The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.

†[Nkjv]The people who walked in darkness Have seen a great light; Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, Upon them a light has shined.

†[BBE]The people who went in the dark have seen a great light, and for those who were living in the land of the deepest night, the light is shining.

†[GNT] The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. They lived in a land of shadows, but now light is shining on them.

†[NIV]The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned.

本会注释　　突然有大光照耀住在浓密黑暗中的加利利居民（见约1:4-9）。先知所想到的是弥赛亚的来临。这句话应验于基督开始在加利利公开传道的时候（见@太4:12-16@注释）。从公元前723或722年十个支派被掳的时候起，加利利实际上是处在黑暗之中，受制于外国的势力，没有祭司和先知的服务，直到弥赛亚来临。

赛9:3 你使这国民繁多，加增他们的喜乐；他们在你面前欢喜，好象收割的欢喜，象人分掳物那样的快乐。 (串)士5:30

†[吕]你增加他们的快乐，你扩大他们的欢喜；他们在你面前欢喜、好像收割时的欢喜，像人分掳掠物那样的快乐。

†[思]你加强了他们的快乐，扩大了他们的欢喜；他们在你面前欢乐，有如人收割时的欢乐，又如分赃时的愉快；

†[当代]上帝要使以色列再成为大国；人民都喜气洋洋，在祂面前欢欣，好像收割和瓜分战利品的时候那样欢喜快乐。

†[新译]你使这国之民增多，又加添他们的欢乐；他们在你面前欢乐，好像收割时的欢乐一样；又像人在均分战利品时的快乐一般。

†[Wlb]尔昌厥民、而益其乐、彼乐于尔前、如获稼之欢、犹分赃之喜、

†[Xdv]上主啊，你赐给他们极大的喜乐（希伯来文是：你使国家强盛）；你增加了他们的欢愉。他们的喜乐正像人在收割农作物，正像人在分享战利品。

†[Kjv]Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.

†[Nkjv]You have multiplied the nation And increased its joy; They rejoice before You According to the joy of harvest, As men rejoice when they divide the spoil.

†[BBE]You have made them very glad, increasing their joy. They are glad before you as men are glad in the time of getting in the grain, or when they make division of the goods taken in war.

†[GNT] You have given them great joy, Lord; you have made them happy. They rejoice in what you have done, as people rejoice when they harvest grain or when they divide captured wealth.

†[NIV]You have enlarged the nation and increased their joy; they rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest, as men rejoice when dividing the plunder.

本会注释　　加增他们的喜乐。KJV版为“不加增喜乐”。在二十份希伯来语手稿，以及原文的旁注，亚兰语文本和塔古姆语里，均为lo（“他们”），而不是lo'（“不”）。这似乎更适应于上下文。先知描绘了一幅更加光明和快乐的画面：弥赛亚来到祂的子民中间，给他们带来平安与喜乐。他们的人数增加（见赛26:15；结36:10,11），快乐也增加了。
　　收割的欢喜。即收获季节里劳动者的欢乐。这是农田里一年里最快乐的日子。希伯来人在秋天里守住棚节。这是一个快乐和感恩的节日（见尼8:17）。他们快乐是因为知道上帝与他们同在（腓3:1；4:4）。基督来向人类宣布平安与喜乐（赛61:3；路2:13,14）。

赛9:4 因为他们所负的重轭和肩头上的杖，并欺压他们人的棍，你都已经折断，好象在米甸的日子一样。 (串)赛10:5;14:5|士7:25诗83:9赛10:26

†[吕]因为他们所重负的轭和肩背上的横木、都已破坏；那赶牲口者的棍子也都折断，像在米甸的日子一样。

†[思]因为你折断了他们所负的重轭、他们肩上的横木，以及压迫他们者的短棍，有如在米德杨那天一样；

†[当代]上帝要把他们所负的担子和肩上的轭挪开，祂也要折断欺压者的棍棒，好像昔日毁灭米甸人一样。

†[新译]因为他们所负的轭和肩头上的杖，以及欺压他们的人的棍，你都折断了，像在米甸的日子一样。

†[Wlb]因其负重之轭、挞背之杖、暴者之梃、尔已折之、若于米甸之日、

†[Xdv]因为你已经粉碎了他们的枷锁，扭断了抽打他们的鞭子，折断了压迫者的棍子，正像你从前粉碎米甸的军队一样。

†[Kjv]For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.

†[Nkjv]For You have broken the yoke of his burden And the staff of his shoulder, The rod of his oppressor, As in the day of Midian.

†[BBE]For by your hand the yoke on his neck and the rod on his back, even the rod of his cruel master, have been broken, as in the day of Midian.

†[GNT] For you have broken the yoke that burdened them and the rod that beat their shoulders. You have defeated the nation that oppressed and exploited your people, just as you defeated the army of Midian long ago.

†[NIV]For as in the day of Midian's defeat, you have shattered the yoke that burdens them, the bar across their shoulders, the rod of their oppressor.

本会注释　　他们所负的重轭。基督来，是要打破罪的束缚，解脱人身上罪孽和忧虑的重担（赛61:1,2；见@路4:18,19@；@太11:28-30@注释）。
　　米甸的日子。在士师时代，以色列经常受到异族的沉重压迫，后来藉着一位民族英雄的兴起而得到解救（见《SDA圣经注释》卷二第45-50页）。基甸曾以小胜多，取得了光荣的胜利，摧毁了米甸人的势力，解放了他的同胞（士7:19-25）。

赛9:5 战士在乱杀之间所穿戴的盔甲，并那滚在血中的衣服，都必作为可烧的，当作火柴。 (串)赛66:15,16

†[吕]因为鏖战震地的战靴、和辊于血中的战袍、都必做烧火的燃料、给火焚烧。

†[思]因为战士所穿发响的军靴，和染满血迹的战袍，都要被焚毁，作为火的燃料。

†[当代]战士的皮靴、染血的征袍，都要当作柴丢进火里焚烧。

†[新译]因为战士在战争喧嚷中所穿的靴，和辊在血中的袍，都必烧毁，成了烧火的燃料。

†[Wlb]战士鼓噪之时、所擐之甲、及沾血之衣、俱必为薪、火焚之柴、

†[Xdv]侵略者的靴子，染满血迹的战衣，都要被火烧掉。

†[Kjv]For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire.

†[Nkjv]For every warrior's sandal from the noisy battle, And garments rolled in blood, Will be used for burning and fuel of fire.

†[BBE]For every boot of the man of war with his sounding step, and the clothing rolled in blood, will be for burning, food for the fire.

†[GNT] The boots of the invading army and all their bloodstained clothing will be destroyed by fire.

†[NIV]Every warrior's boot used in battle and every garment rolled in blood will be destined for burning, will be fuel for the fire.

本会注释　　这里描述战争，流血，喧哗，骚乱，死亡，最后的胜利和战争废墟的燃烧。善恶势力之间旷日持久的斗争在哈米吉多顿大战中达到了高潮。那是弥赛亚永恒统治的前奏（启16:14,16；19:11-19；又见诗46:6-9；76:2,3；赛63:1-6；结38:21,22；39:9；珥3:11,16；亚9:9,10；亚14:13）。

赛9:6 因有一婴孩为我们而生；有一子赐给我们。政权必担在他的肩头上；他名称为“奇妙、策士、全能的上帝、永在的父、和平的君”。 (串)赛7:14路2:11|约3:16|太28:18林前15:25|士13:18|多2:13|弗2:14

†[吕]因为有一个孩子给我们生下来，有一个儿子赐给我们；有政权在他肩头上；他的名称为‘神奇谋士，神威勇士，永恒之父，泰平之君。’

†[思]因为有一个婴孩为我们诞生了，有一个儿子赐给了我们；他肩上担负着王权，他的名子要称为神奇的谋士、强有力的天主、永远之父、和平之王。

†[当代]因为将有一个婴孩为我们诞生，有一个孩子要赐给我们，祂把政权担当在肩头上，祂的名字称为奇妙、策士、全能的上帝、永存的父、和平的君王。

†[新译]因为有一个婴孩为我们而生，有一个儿子赐给我们；政权必担在他的肩头上；他的名必称为“奇妙的策士、全能的　神、永恒的父、和平的君”。

†[Wlb]盖有婴孩为我而生、有子锡予于我、其肩负荷国政、其名称为奇士、谋主、全能之神、恒久之父、和平之君、

†[Xdv]有一个婴儿为我们而生！有一个儿子将赐给我们！他要来统治我们。他将被称为：“奇妙（或译：贤明）的导师”，“全能的上帝”，“永恒的父亲”，“和平的君王”。

†[Kjv]For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

†[Nkjv]For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

†[BBE]For to us a child has come, to us a son is given; and the government has been placed in his hands; and he has been named Wise Guide, Strong God, Father for ever, Prince of Peace.

†[GNT] A child is born to us! A son is given to us! And he will be our ruler. He will be called, "Wonderful Counselor," "Mighty God," "Eternal Father," "Prince of Peace."

†[NIV]For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

本会注释　　有一婴孩为我们而生。以赛亚用一个有关伟大和平之君的醒目预言，结束他对将来和平时代的描写。靠着人的努力，和平永远不可能在这个世界里实现。以赛亚所描写地上将来的国王，将凭着公义和圣洁执政。以赛亚所作的描述，不可能属于地上的任何统治者。
　　在宇宙中只有一位完全符合这里的描述。那就是基督。圣经里没有其他地方，能像这里描述人类的救主和将来的君王那样，表现了如此崇高的意念，美丽的词语和强烈的情感。以赛亚在写这些话的时候，确已见过有关上帝荣耀的异像。和其他《旧约》作家一样，有上帝按手在他身上，有天使在指导着他的笔。诗110篇描写基督为将来的王，“照着麦基洗德的等次，永远为祭司”。诗2篇描写祂用铁杖打摔列国。诗45篇描写祂威严地乘车前进。
　　政权。基督将要统治整个天地（见但2:44,45；太25:31；28:18；路1:32,33；林前15:25,参照诗110:1；腓2:10；启11:15）。
　　奇妙、策士。即“奇妙的策士”（见赛11:2,3；25:1；28:29）。这个名字体现了智慧、仁慈和体谅。这个名字会引起宇宙天地一切受造者的快乐，崇敬和赞美（见腓2:9-11；启5:12,13）。
　　全能的上帝。圣子耶稣和圣父都是上帝。祂与圣父从亘古就是合而为一的（见诗90:2；箴8:22-30；弥5:2；约1:1；14:9,11；《历代愿望》第19页）。
　　永在的父。正如圣父是永在的，基督也是永在的。以赛亚称基督为父。因为从特殊的意义上来说，祂是全人类的父亲，是人类的世界的创造主（约1:3；弗3:9；西1:16；来1:2；参照创1:26）。没有什么其他的词能比“父”更加充分地表达耶稣对祂儿女的关爱了。基督执政的时候，对祂的子民将如同一位父亲（赛22:21,22；参启3:7）。
　　和平的君。见亚9:9,10；弗2:14。和平只能随公义而来（赛32:17,18）。耶稣是公义之君（耶23:5,6；33:15,16）。祂把自己的义分赐给人。祂降临世界带来和平（路2:14；约14:27；另见腓4:7）。

赛9:7 他的政权与平安必加增无穷。他必在大卫的宝座上治理他的国，以公平公义使国坚定稳固，从今直到永远。万军之耶和华的热心必成就这事。 (串)但2:44路1:32,33|王下19:31赛37:32

†[吕]他的政权宏大（传统：增加），他的泰平无穷，在大卫的宝座上治理他的国，以公平公义坚立而支持它，从今时直到永远。万军之永恒主的热心必成就这事。

†[思]他的王权是伟大的，达味的御座和他王国的平安是无限的，他将以正义与公平对王国加以巩固与保持，从今时直到永远：万军上主的热诚必要完成这事。

†[当代]祂赐的平安和祂的政权没有穷尽。祂坐在大卫的王座上以公平公义治国，使国家永远升平，坚定稳固。万军之主必定热切地成全这事。

†[新译]他的政权与平安必无穷无尽地增加，他在大卫的宝座上治理他的国，以公平和公义使国坚立稳固，从现在直到永远。万军之耶和华的热心必成全这事。

†[Wlb]其政治与和平、有加无已、在于大卫之位、治理其国、以公以义建立之、保定之、自今迄于永远、万军耶和华之热中、将成此焉、

†[Xdv]他的王权将继续增长；他的王国永享和平。他要继承大卫的王位；他以公道与正义为统治的基础，从现在直到永远。上主──万军的统帅决意要成就这一切。

†[Kjv]Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform th

†[Nkjv]Of the increase of His government and peace There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

†[BBE]Of the increase of his rule and of peace there will be no end, on the seat of David, and in his kingdom; to make it strong, supporting it with wise decision and righteousness, now and for ever. By the fixed purpose of the Lord of armies this will be done.

†[GNT] His royal power will continue to grow; his kingdom will always be at peace. He will rule as King David's successor, basing his power on right and justice, from now until the end of time. The Lord Almighty is determined to do all this.

†[NIV]Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will

本会注释　　祂的政权。但以理曾预言基督的国度将粉碎地上的列国，“要打碎灭绝那一切国，这国必存到永远”（但2:44；参启11:15）。天使加百列宣告“祂的国也没有穷尽”（路1:33）。
　　大卫的宝座。大卫是基督的预表。藉着基督，大卫的宝座将永远坚立（创49:10；撒下7:11-13；诗89:3,4,29,36；132:11,12；耶23:5；33:17；路1:32；见@申18:15@；@代上28:7@；@太1:1@注释）。
　　以公平公义。直译是“藉着公平和公义”（见赛11:4,5；16:5）。
　　热心。上帝为什么要做这一切呢？祂是受到圣洁热情的感动，爱心的激励。祂是爱，不能静止不动。当祂想到人类迷失在罪中的时候，就开始祂恩典和荣耀的工作。没有什么比爱更强大的力量，也没有什么比爱能感动人作出更的牺牲或更勇敢的服务。基督包容一切的爱心，促使祂以无私的精神，“公平公义”的服务进行统治。

赛9:8 主使一言入于雅各家，落于以色列家。

†[吕]主发谕旨谴责雅各家，谴责落在以色列家身上，

†[思]吾主发出了一句相反雅各伯的话，这话临于以色列。

†[当代]主责备以色列的话，

†[新译]主发出一个信息攻击雅各家，信息落在以色列家。

†[Wlb]主发一言、及于雅各、临于以色列、

†[Xdv]主已经对以色列国，对雅各的子孙宣判。

†[Kjv]The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.

†[Nkjv]The LORD sent a word against Jacob, And it has fallen on Israel.

†[BBE]The Lord has sent a word to Jacob, and it has come on Israel;

†[GNT] The Lord has pronounced judgment on the kingdom of Israel, on the descendants of Jacob.

†[NIV]The Lord has sent a message against Jacob; it will fall on Israel.

本会注释　　使一言入于雅各。上下文（第9-17节）表明，以下的信息是针对“雅各”的，预言了上帝的惩罚。本节开始了一个新的段落，延续到赛10:4为止，包含了上帝对以色列的斥责。在荣耀中统治之王的异像结束了。先知把注意力转到了当前的局势。时间与前面的章节是一样的，因为亚兰的利汛还活着（第11节）。这个信息一定是在利汛死亡的公元前735年和732年之间发出的。
　　落于以色列家。雅各和以色列在第8节中都有提到。赛9:8到10:4的信息主要针对通常称为“以法莲”或“撒玛利亚”的十个悖逆的支派（赛9:9,21）。本章14节里的“以色列”几乎可以肯定是指北方的王国。但第8节的“以色列”是指北方的以色列，雅各是指犹大吗？若是这样，上帝就是通过犹大向以色列传递了了这个信息。然而从广义上说，以赛亚经常用雅各和以色列来代表所有上帝的选民（见赛10:20-22；27:6；29:23；40:27；41:8,14；43:1,22,28；44:5；46:3；48:1,12；49:6）。在北方王国最终覆灭以后，这两个词一般都指犹大。

赛9:9 这众百姓，就是以法莲和撒玛利亚的居民，都要知道；他们凭骄傲自大的心说：

†[吕]直到这众民都体验到，以法莲和撒玛利亚的居民都明白；因为他们凭骄傲、凭自大之心而说：

†[思]整个民众，即厄弗辣因和撒玛黎雅的居民，终必领悟，因为他们曾自负，且心高气傲说：

†[当代]犹大和以色列人都应该知道，他们骄傲自夸说：

†[新译]所有的人民，就是以法莲和撒玛利亚的居民，都要知道这事；他们凭着骄傲和自大的心说：

†[Wlb]维此众庶、以法莲与撒玛利亚居民将知之、彼心骄气傲、曰、

†[Xdv]全以色列人民，所有住在撒马利亚城的人，都要知道上帝已经这样宣判了。他们骄傲自大地说：

†[Kjv]And all the people shall know, even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart,

†[Nkjv]All the people will know-- Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria-- Who say in pride and arrogance of heart:

†[BBE]And all the people will have experience of it, even Ephraim and the men of Samaria, who say in the pride of their uplifted hearts,

†[GNT] All the people of Israel, everyone who lives in the city of Samaria, will know that he has done this. Now they are proud and arrogant. They say,

†[NIV]All the people will know it- Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria- who say with pride and arrogance of heart,

本会注释　　以法莲。上帝已经保证，以法莲和亚兰进攻犹大的计划不会取得成功（赛7:4-7）。他们已遭到了一些挫折。但是以色列的比加仍决心继续进攻犹大。
　　骄傲自大的心。比加傲慢地拒绝了以赛亚所传的警告，坚决实施他进攻亚哈斯的计划。

赛9:10 砖墙塌了，我们却要凿石头建筑；桑树砍了，我们却要换香柏树。

†[吕]“砖墙塌了，我们却要凿石头来建筑；桑树砍了，我们却要换上香柏树。”

†[思]“假使砖瓦堕毁了，我们将以方石再建；假使桑树伐倒了，我们将代以香柏！”

†[当代]“砖墙倒塌了，我们可以凿石重新建造；桑树砍伐了，我们可以改种香柏树啊！”

†[新译]“砖墙倒塌了，我们就用凿好的石头来建筑；桑树砍倒了，我们就用香柏树替换。”

†[Wlb]砖既圮、我以凿石建之、桑既伐、我以香柏易之、

†[Xdv]“砖房倒塌了，我们再造石屋；桑木做的梁断了，我们再换上最好的香柏木大梁。”

†[Kjv]The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars.

†[Nkjv]"The bricks have fallen down, But we will rebuild with hewn stones; The sycamores are cut down, But we will replace them with cedars."

†[BBE]The bricks have come down, but we will put up buildings of cut stone in their place: the sycamores are cut down, but they will be changed to cedars.

†[GNT] "The brick buildings have fallen down, but we will replace them with stone buildings. The beams of sycamore wood have been cut down, but we will replace them with the finest cedar."

†[NIV]The bricks have fallen down, but we will rebuild with dressed stone; the fig trees have been felled, but we will replace them with cedars."

本会注释　　以赛亚在这里指比加以前的挫折和他弥补过去损失的计划（见赛7:1）。就像砖墙倒塌以后，比加要用石头代替砖块来重建。“桑树”已经砍伐（见@路17:6；19:4@注释），比加却要用更加昂贵和耐久的香柏树来代替（见王上10:27）。他在表现自己的顽梗，和公开蔑视上天的旨意。

赛9:11 因此，耶和华要高举利汛的敌人来攻击以色列，并要激动以色列的仇敌。

†[吕]因此永恒主高举敌人（传统：利汛的敌人）来攻击以色列，激动以色列的仇敌：

†[思]所以上主必兴起他的对手，怂恿他的仇敌来攻击他：

†[当代]因此万军之主要兴起并催赶敌人来攻击你们，

†[新译]因此，耶和华必兴起利汛的敌人来攻击以色列，并且要激动以色列的仇敌。

†[Wlb]故耶和华起利汛之敌以攻之、并激其仇、

†[Xdv]所以，上主鼓动他们的敌人（希伯来文是：利汛的敌人）来攻击他们。

†[Kjv]Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together;

†[Nkjv]Therefore the LORD shall set up The adversaries of Rezin against him, And spur his enemies on,

†[BBE]For this cause the Lord has made strong the haters of Israel, driving them on to make war against him;

†[GNT] The Lord has stirred up their enemies to attack them.

†[NIV]But the Lord has strengthened Rezin's foes against them and has spurred their enemies on.

本会注释　　上帝要派遣利汛的仇敌亚述人来攻击以色列。见王下15:29关于提革拉-毗列色对比加所采取的措施。

赛9:12 东有亚兰人，西有非利士人；他们张口要吞吃以色列。虽然如此，耶和华的怒气还未转消；他的手仍伸不缩。 (串)本章17,21赛5:25;10:4耶4:8

†[吕]东边有亚兰人，西边有非利士人；他们都以张开的口吞吃以色列。虽有这一切，永恒主的怒气还未转消；他的手仍然伸着。

†[思]东有阿兰，西有培肋舍特，他们必张口并吞以色列；然而他的震怒并未因此而熄灭，他的手仍然伸着。

†[当代]东有亚兰，西有非利士，他们都张牙舞爪地要吞噬以色列；然而，主的怒气还没有消除，祂的刑罚还没有止息。

†[新译]东有亚兰人，西有非利士人；他们张开口来要吞灭以色列。虽然这样，耶和华的怒气还没有转消，他的手仍然伸出。

†[Wlb]东有亚兰、西有非利士、张口吞噬以色列、然其怒未息、其手尚伸焉、

†[Xdv]叙利亚人在东边，非利士人在西边；都张开嘴要吞灭以色列。尽管这样，上主的怒气没有停息；他仍要举手责打他们。

†[Kjv]The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

†[Nkjv]The Syrians before and the Philistines behind; And they shall devour Israel with an open mouth. For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand is stretched out still.

†[BBE]Aram on the east, and the Philistines on the west, who have come against Israel with open mouths. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

†[GNT] Syria on the east and Philistia on the west have opened their mouths to devour Israel. Yet even so the Lord's anger is not ended; his hand is still stretched out to punish.

†[NIV]Arameans from the east and Philistines from the west have devoured Israel with open mouth. Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away, his hand is still upraised.

本会注释　　亚兰人。这一次，亚兰与以法莲结盟攻击犹大（赛7:1,2）。但是上帝应许使亚兰人转而攻击他们的宿敌以色列。东方国家的同盟是很脆弱的。今天的朋友可能就是明天的敌人。亚兰人将从北面和东面攻击以色列，非利士人将从南面和西面攻击他们。希伯来人是以面朝东方来确定方向的（见@创29:1@；@出3:1@；@民3:23@注释）。所以亚兰人“在前”，非利士人“在后”。
　　仍伸不缩。参出7:19；8:5等和赛5:25。该词用来表示其他的惩罚。上帝已经惩罚过以色列，但祂的手仍伸不缩，好象还要惩罚这个民族。提革拉-毗列色三世占领了以色列的大片领土，但没有毁灭她。将来摧毁这个国家的，是将来撒缦以色五世的围攻。

赛9:13 这百姓还没有归向击打他们的主，也没有寻求万军之耶和华。 (串)耶5:3何7:10

†[吕]这人民还没有回转来归向那击打他们、的主，还没有寻求万军之永恒主。

†[思]但民众仍没有归依打击他们的天主，仍不寻求万军的上主。

†[当代]虽然受到这样的刑罚，他们还是不肯归向和寻求万军之主。

†[新译]这人民还没有回转、归向那击打他们的万军之耶和华，也没有寻求他。

†[Wlb]斯民仍未转向击之者、不寻求万军之耶和华、

†[Xdv]虽然上主──万军的统帅惩罚以色列人民，他们仍然不悔改，不回到上主面前。

†[Kjv]For the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts.

†[Nkjv]For the people do not turn to Him who strikes them, Nor do they seek the LORD of hosts.

†[BBE]But the heart of the people was not turned to him who sent punishment on them, and they made no prayer to the Lord of armies.

†[GNT] The people of Israel have not repented; even though the Lord Almighty has punished them, they have not returned to him.

†[NIV]But the people have not returned to him who struck them, nor have they sought the Lord Almighty.

本会注释　　没有归向。上帝曾降下祂的惩罚，不是为了毁灭，而是为了促使百姓悔改。但他们没有接受上帝责备的信息，继续顽梗作恶，所以不可避免地要受到更加严厉的惩罚。
　　击打。参@赛1:5,6@注释。

赛9:14 因此，耶和华一日之间必从以色列中剪除头与尾，棕枝与芦苇， (串)赛10:17启18:8

†[吕]因此永恒主从以色列中剪除了头与尾，就在一日之间、剪除棕枝与灯草──

†[思]因此，上主要在一天之内，砍断以色列的首尾、棕枝和芦苇。

†[当代]因此，上帝要在一日之间消灭他们的长老、领袖和假先知，

†[新译]因此，耶和华在一日之间，必从以色列中剪除头和尾、棕枝与芦苇。

†[Wlb]故一日之间、耶和华断以色列之首尾、棕枝与芦苇、

†[Xdv]上主要在一日之间惩罚以色列的领袖和人民；他要把他们的头尾都砍掉。

†[Kjv]Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.

†[Nkjv]Therefore the LORD will cut off head and tail from Israel, Palm branch and bulrush in one day.

†[BBE]For this cause the Lord took away from Israel head and tail, high and low, in one day.

†[GNT] In a single day the Lord will punish Israel's leaders and its people; he will cut them off, head and tail.

†[NIV]So the Lord will cut off from Israel both head and tail, both palm branch and reed in a single day;

本会注释　　从以色列中剪除。由于以色列不悔改，上帝别无选择，只能继续惩罚，剪除他们的“头与尾”（见第13节注释）。国家将完全毁灭。那些把国家引入歧途的人受到了特别的惩罚（见第16节）。
　　棕枝与芦苇。雄伟的“棕枝”是可能指国家的贵族和官长。“芦苇”可能指假谦卑（赛58:5），或根据赛9:14,15，指假先知。

赛9:15 长老和尊贵人就是头，以谎言教人的先知就是尾。

†[吕]［长老和体面人乃是头；以虚假指教人的、神言人乃是尾。

†[思]【长者和尊者是首，传授谎言的先知是尾。】

†[当代]－

†[新译]长老和尊贵人就是头；用谎言教导人的先知就是尾。

†[Wlb]长者尊者、首也、传妄语之先知、尾也、

†[Xdv]年高而有声望的人是头，胡说八道的先知是尾。

†[Kjv]The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.

†[Nkjv]The elder and honorable, he is the head; The prophet who teaches lies, he is the tail.

†[BBE]The man who is honoured and responsible is the head, and the prophet who gives false teaching is the tail.

†[GNT] The old and honorable men are the head - and the tail is the prophets whose teachings are lies!

†[NIV]the elders and prominent men are the head, the prophets who teach lies are the tail.

本会注释　　长老。见赛3:2,3。在国家的主要领袖中有首领，法官，民政和军事长官。对这种人的惩罚将特别严厉。
　　以谎言教人的。国家中最可恶的阶层是那些负有属灵领导责任，却把百姓引到错谬和愚昧道路上的人。以赛亚在斥责的信息中没有放过他们（赛28:7；29:9,10）。

赛9:16 因为，引导这百姓的使他们走错了路；被引导的都必败亡。 (串)赛3:12

†[吕]那些领导这人民的、使他们走错了路；那些被领导的、都混混乱乱。］

†[思]因为领导这民族的人走入了歧途，受引导的人陷入了混乱。

†[当代]因为这些人把人民导向沉沦。

†[新译]因为那些领导这人民的，使他们走错了路；那些被领导的，都必一片混乱。

†[Wlb]导民者诱入迷途、受导者沦胥以亡、

†[Xdv]原该领导人民的人反把人民带入歧途，使他们更胡涂。

†[Kjv]For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.

†[Nkjv]For the leaders of this people cause them to err, And those who are led by them are destroyed.

†[BBE]For the guides of this people are the cause of their wandering from the right way, and those who are guided by them come to destruction.

†[GNT] Those who lead these people have misled them and totally confused them.

†[NIV]Those who guide this people mislead them, and those who are guided are led astray.

本会注释　　国家一定要有领袖。但领袖有时会引人走错路。许多国家遭受厄运，就是因为其领袖领错了路。想要做领导，就要认真考虑作为领导的重大责任。国家的命运取决于他的引导和他所树立的榜样。以色列的失败是因为她的领导人把百姓领到了错路之上。

赛9:17 所以，主必不喜悦他们的少年人，也不怜恤他们的孤儿寡妇；因为，各人是亵渎的，是行恶的，并且各人的口都说愚妄的话。虽然如此，耶和华的怒气还未转消；他的手仍伸不缩。 (串)诗147:10,11|弥7:2|本章12,21赛5:25;10:4

†[吕]故此他们的壮丁、主不喜欢，他们的的孤儿寡妇、主不怜悯；因为各人都是不拜上帝、作坏事的，各人的口都说着愚昧的话。虽有这一切，永恒主的怒气还未转消；他的手仍然伸着。

†[思]因此，吾主将毫不怜悯他的少年，毫不抚恤他的孤儿和寡妇，因为他们都是乖戾邪恶的，并且都是口出恶言的，然而他的震怒并未因此而熄灭，他的手仍然伸着。

†[当代]主不喜欢他们的年轻人，也不怜悯他们的孤儿寡妇，因为他们目中没有上帝，肆意行恶，口出狂言。这时，主的怒气还没有消除，祂的刑罚还没有止息。

†[新译]因此，主不喜欢他们的年轻人，也不怜恤他们的孤儿寡妇；因为他们各人都是不敬虔的，是邪恶的，各人的口都说愚昧的话。虽然这样，耶和华的怒气还没有转消，他的手仍然伸出。

†[Wlb]故主不悦其丁男、不恤其孤寡、因皆亵慢作恶、众口言妄、然其怒未息、其手尚伸焉、

†[Xdv]因此，主绝不放过年轻人，也不怜恤寡妇和孤儿；因为所有的人都无法无天，讲的话都是邪恶。尽管这样，上主的怒气没有停息；他仍然要举手责打他们。

†[Kjv]Therefore the LORD shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is str

†[Nkjv]Therefore the Lord will have no joy in their young men, Nor have mercy on their fatherless and widows; For everyone is a hypocrite and an evildoer, And every mouth speaks folly. For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand is stretched out stil

†[BBE]For this cause the Lord will have no pleasure in their young men, and no pity on their widows and the children without fathers: for they are all haters of God and evil-doers, and foolish words come from every mouth. For all this his wrath is not turned aw

†[GNT] And so the Lord will not let any of the young men escape, and he will not show pity on any of the widows and orphans, because all the people are godless and wicked and everything they say is evil. Yet even so the Lord's anger will not be ended, but his h

†[NIV]Therefore the Lord will take no pleasure in the young men, nor will he pity the fatherless and widows, for everyone is ungodly and wicked, every mouth speaks vileness. Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away, his hand is still upraised.

本会注释　　不喜悦。死海古卷1QIsa 是“不怜悯”，似乎更符合上下文。
　　亵渎的。见太6:2；7:5；23:3,13。以色列败亡的时候，百姓已完全把自己交给了罪恶。他们虽自称信奉宗教，却公开依恋罪孽。所有的阶层都被卷入，所以不论老幼都要接受惩罚。当罪恶越过了一定的界限时，公义就要求降下刑罚。

赛9:18 邪恶象火焚烧，烧灭荆棘和蒺藜，在稠密的树林中着起来，就成为烟柱，旋转上腾。 (串)赛10:17玛4:1

†[吕]因为邪恶像火烧着，烧灭蒺藜和荆棘；在森林的丛薮中着起来，旋转上腾，成为浮烟。

†[思]罪恶犹如燃烧的火，焚毁荆棘和蒺藜，使丛林燎起大火，烟柱因此旋转上腾。

†[当代]邪恶像火焰焚烧，焚毁了荆棘和蒺藜，稠密的树林都燃烧起来，形成了一股上腾的烟柱。

†[新译]邪恶像火一般焚烧，吞灭荆棘蒺藜，连树林中的密丛也烧起火来，它们旋转上腾，成了烟柱。

†[Wlb]夫恶如火之燎、焚毁荆棘蒺藜、燃乎丛林、烟柱上腾、

†[Xdv]人民的邪恶好像焚烧荆棘的火蔓延着，又像森林着火，一团团的烟柱往上直冲；

†[Kjv]For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke.

†[Nkjv]For wickedness burns as the fire; It shall devour the briers and thorns, And kindle in the thickets of the forest; They shall mount up like rising smoke.

†[BBE]For evil was burning like a fire; the blackberries and thorns were burned up; the thick woods took fire, rolling up in dark clouds of smoke.

†[GNT] The wickedness of the people burns like a fire that destroys thorn bushes and thistles. It burns like a forest fire that sends up columns of smoke.

†[NIV]Surely wickedness burns like a fire; it consumes briers and thorns, it sets the forest thickets ablaze, so that it rolls upward in a column of smoke.

本会注释　　这里形象地描述了犯罪的最后结果。罪恶只会伤害人，不会医治人。邪恶象火焚烧，留下灰烬和荒芜。它不会修理或建造。荆棘和蒺藜，只会产生破坏，象征百姓中所泛滥的罪孽（见赛5:6；7:23-25；10:17；27:4；32:13）。国土如果长满荆棘和蒺藜，就会排挤森林中的好树。罪恶也会如火焚烧自己。罪恶会遭到惩罚的。事实上它的惩罚是自惹的（见赛33:11,12；耶21:14；珥1:19,20；来6:8）。如此，土地就会得到洁净，好让青翠的新树茁壮成长（见彼后3:10-13）。

赛9:19 因万军之耶和华的烈怒，地都烧遍；百姓成为火柴；无人怜爱弟兄。 (串)赛8:22|弥7:2,6

†[吕]因了万军之永恒主的暴怒、地都被烧毁；人民都成了烧火的燃料，没有人顾惜自己的弟兄。

†[思]由于万军上主的愤怒，地域将被烧毁，百姓成为火的柴薪，无人抚恤自己的弟兄，

†[当代]因为万军之主大发烈怒，大地就烧焦了，人民成为火中的木柴。兄弟彼此也不相顾，

†[新译]因着万军之耶和华的烈怒，地被烧毁，人民成了烧火的燃料一般，没有人顾惜自己的兄弟。

†[Wlb]因万军耶和华之震怒、斯土被毁、民如柴薪、不相顾恤、

†[Xdv]因为上主──万军的统帅震怒了。他的惩罚像火一般，遍地焚烧，毁灭了人民，一个也不留下。

†[Kjv]Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother.

†[Nkjv]Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts The land is burned up, And the people shall be as fuel for the fire; No man shall spare his brother.

†[BBE]The land was dark with the wrath of the Lord of armies: the people were like those who take men's flesh for food.

†[GNT] Because the Lord Almighty is angry, his punishment burns like a fire throughout the land and destroys the people, and it is each of us for ourselves.

†[NIV]By the wrath of the Lord Almighty the land will be scorched and the people will be fuel for the fire; no one will spare his brother.

本会注释　　地都烧遍。见第1、2节注释。先知看见了混乱的场面。人们茫然不知所措，全地充满黑暗。愤怒，悲痛，仇恨，邪恶，残暴和冤屈，撕扯着人的心，燃起他们的仇恨，使他们与邻居为敌。罪恶的最终结果就是这样：“人都要用刀剑杀害弟兄”（结38:21），“各人彼此揪住，举手攻击”（亚14:13）。

赛9:20 有人右边抢夺，仍受饥饿，左边吞吃，仍不饱足；各人吃自己膀臂上的肉。 (串)利26:26|赛49:26耶19:9

†[吕]人右边割肉吃，仍然饥饿；左边吞吃，仍不觉得饱：各人竟吃自己膀臂的肉；

†[思]各吃自己近人的肉：向右攫食的，仍旧遭受饥饿；向左吞噬的，依然不得果腹。

†[当代]他们到处抢夺吞噬，却仍然饥饿；他们甚至要吃自己亲人的肉来充饥。

†[新译]有人在右边切肉，仍然饥饿；在左边吞吃，仍然不饱足；各人竟吃自己手臂的肉。

†[Wlb]有夺于右者而仍饥、有食于左者而不饱、各啮己臂之肉、

†[Xdv]在境内的每一个角落，人东找西找，抢东西吃，却仍然无法充饥解饿；他们甚至吃自己的孩子！

†[Kjv]And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm:

†[Nkjv]And he shall snatch on the right hand And be hungry; He shall devour on the left hand And not be satisfied; Every man shall eat the flesh of his own arm.

†[BBE]On the right a man was cutting off bits and was still in need; on the left a man took a meal but had not enough; no man had pity on his brother; every man was making a meal of the flesh of his neighbour.

†[GNT] Everywhere in the country people snatch and eat any bit of food they can find, but their hunger is never satisfied. They even eat their own children!

†[NIV]On the right they will devour, but still be hungry; on the left they will eat, but not be satisfied. Each will feed on the flesh of his own offspring :

本会注释　　这是贪婪和腐败的最后结果。自私最终要耗尽自己。不关心邻居福利的人，实际上是在危害自己的最高利益。从长远的眼光来看，如果不让邻居也得到幸福，人就不可能完全幸福和兴旺。靠压榨同胞发财的人，是在自取败亡。当各国彼此攻击，追求自私的利益时，他们正在犯下最大的蠢行，因为他们是在毁灭自己和他们所生活的世界。正如过去人们因贪欲和纠纷自相残杀，国家相互摧毁，如今的世界也正在制造自己的毁灭。

赛9:21 玛拿西吞吃（或作：攻击；下同）以法莲；以法莲吞吃玛拿西，又一同攻击犹大。虽然如此，耶和华的怒气还未转消；他的手仍伸不缩。 (串)本章12,17赛5:25;10:4

†[吕]玛拿西吞吃以法莲；以法莲吞吃玛拿西；二者又一同攻击犹大。虽有这一切，永恒主的怒气还未转消；他的手仍然伸着。

†[思]默纳协吞噬厄弗辣因，厄弗辣因吞灭默纳协，二者又合力并吞犹大；然而他的震怒并未因此而熄灭，他的手仍然伸着。

†[当代]以法莲和玛拿西自相残杀；他们又联合起来攻打犹大。这个时候，主的怒气还没有消除，祂的刑罚还没有止息。

†[新译]玛拿西吞吃以法莲，以法莲吞吃玛拿西，又一起攻击犹大。虽然这样，耶和华的怒气还没有转消，他的手仍然伸出。

†[Wlb]玛拿西吞噬以法莲、以法莲吞噬玛拿西、二者同攻犹大、然其怒未息、其手尚伸焉、

†[Xdv]玛拿西人和以法莲人互相攻击，他们又联合起来攻击犹大。尽管这样，上主的怒气没有停息；他仍然要举手责打他们。

†[Kjv]Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh: and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

†[Nkjv]Manasseh shall devour Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasseh; Together they shall be against Judah. For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand is stretched out still.

†[BBE]Manasseh was making a meal of Ephraim, and Ephraim of Manasseh; and together they were attacking Judah. For all this his wrath is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

†[GNT] The people of Manasseh and the people of Ephraim attack each other, and together they attack Judah. Yet even so the Lord's anger is not ended; his hand is still stretched out to punish.

†[NIV]Manasseh will feed on Ephraim, and Ephraim on Manasseh; together they will turn against Judah. Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away, his hand is still upraised.

本会注释　　玛拿西吞吃（或作：攻击；下同）以法莲。这两个支派是弟兄，有着共同的利益。但当以法莲和玛拿西相互为敌的时候，他们就必然同归于尽。而当这两个支派联合起来攻击他们的兄弟犹大时，就注定他们的末日来到了。没有一个国家像以赛亚时代的北方王国那样，长期经历这么多的罪恶，贪欲和流血。
　　仍伸不缩。下一章继续本章的思路，进一步列举上帝伸手要惩罚的罪恶。
