Capítulo 64

¹Oh, that You would rend the heavens [and] come down, That the mountains might quake at Your presence--

¹願你裂天而降；願山在你面前震動─

²As fire kindles the brushwood, [as] fire causes water to boil-- To make Your name known to Your adversaries, [That] the nations may tremble at Your presence!

²好像火燒乾柴，又像火將水燒開，使你敵人知道你的名，使列國在你面前發顫！

³When You did awesome things which we did not expect, You came down, the mountains quaked at Your presence.

³你曾行我們不能逆料可畏的事。那時你降臨，山嶺在你面前震動。

⁴For from days of old they have not heard or perceived by ear, Nor has the eye seen a God besides You, Who acts in behalf of the one who waits for Him.

⁴從古以來，人未曾聽見、未曾耳聞、未曾眼見在你以外有甚麼神為等候他的人行事。

⁵You meet him who rejoices in doing righteousness, Who remembers You in Your ways. Behold, You were angry, for we sinned, [We continued] in them a long time; And shall we be saved?

⁵你迎接那歡喜行義、記念你道的人；你曾發怒，我們仍犯罪；這景況已久，我們還能得救麼？

⁶For all of us have become like one who is unclean, And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment; And all of us wither like a leaf, And our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.

⁶我們都像不潔淨的人；所有的義都像污穢的衣服。我們都像葉子漸漸枯乾；我們的罪孽好像風把我們吹去。

⁷There is no one who calls on Your name, Who arouses himself to take hold of You; For You have hidden Your face from us And have delivered us into the power of our iniquities.

⁷並且無人求告你的名；無人奮力抓住你。原來你掩面不顧我們，使我們因罪孽消化。

⁸But now, O LORD, You are our Father, We are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand.

⁸耶和華啊，現在你仍是我們的父！我們是泥，你是窯匠；我們都是你手的工作。

⁹Do not be angry beyond measure, O LORD, Nor remember iniquity forever; Behold, look now, all of us are Your people.

⁹耶和華啊，求你不要大發震怒，也不要永遠記念罪孽。求你垂顧我們，我們都是你的百姓。

¹⁰Your holy cities have become a wilderness, Zion has become a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.

¹⁰你的聖邑變為曠野。錫安變為曠野；耶路撒冷成為荒場。

¹¹Our holy and beautiful house, Where our fathers praised You, Has been burned [by] fire; And all our precious things have become a ruin.

¹¹我們聖潔華美的殿─就是我們列祖讚美你的所在被火焚燒；我們所羨慕的美地盡都荒廢。

¹²Will You restrain Yourself at these things, O LORD? Will You keep silent and afflict us beyond measure?

¹²耶和華啊，有這些事，你還忍得住麼？你仍靜默使我們深受苦難麼？
