第五十七章
14耶和華要說：“你們要修築修築，預備道路，將絆腳石從我百姓
的路中除掉！”15因為那至高至上、永遠長存（註：原文作“住在
永遠”）、名為聖者的如此說：“我住在至高至聖的所在，也與心
靈痛悔、謙卑的人同居；要使謙卑人的靈甦醒，也使痛悔人的心甦
醒。16我必不永遠相爭，也不長久發怒，恐怕我所造的人與靈性都
必發昏。17因他貪婪的罪孽，我就發怒擊打他。我向他掩面發怒，
他卻仍然隨心背道。18我看見他所行的道，也要醫治他，又要引導
他，使他和那一同傷心的人再得安慰。19我造就嘴唇的果子，願平
安康泰歸與遠處的人，也歸與近處的人；並且我要醫治他。”這是
耶和華說的。20“惟獨惡人，好像翻騰的海不得平靜；其中的水常
湧出污穢和淤泥來。”21我的神說：“惡人必不得平安！”

Chapter 57
14 And it will be said:“Build up, build up, prepare the road! Remove the
obstacles out of the way of my people.”15 For this is what the high and
exalted One says—he who lives forever, whose name is holy:
“I live in a high and holy place, but also with the one who is contrite and
lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the
contrite.16 I will not accuse them forever, nor will I always be angry,
for then they would faint away because of me—the very people I have
created.17 I was enraged by their sinful greed; I punished them, and hid
my face in anger,yet they kept on in their willful ways.18 I have seen their
ways, but I will heal them;I will guide them and restore comfort to Israel’s
mourners,19 creating praise on their lips. Peace, peace, to those far and
near,”says the LORD. “And I will heal them.”20 But the wicked are like
the tossing sea, which cannot rest,whose waves cast up mire and mud.
21 “There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”

第五十六章
1耶和華如此說：“你們當守公平、行公義，因我的救恩臨近，我
的公義將要顯現。2謹守安息日而不干犯，禁止己手而不作惡；如
此行、如此持守的人便為有福。”3與耶和華聯合的外邦人不要
說：“耶和華必定將我從他民中分別出來。”太監也不要說：“我
是枯樹。”4因為耶和華如此說：“那些謹守我的安息日，揀選我
所喜悅的事，持守我約的太監，5我必使他們在我殿中，在我牆內
有記念、有名號，比有兒女的更美。我必賜他們永遠的名，不能剪
除。6還有那些與耶和華聯合的外邦人，要事奉他，要愛耶和華的
名，要作他的僕人，就是凡守安息日不干犯、又持守他（註：原文
作“我”）約的人。7我必領他們到我的聖山，使他們在禱告我的
殿中喜樂。他們的燔祭和平安祭，在我壇上必蒙悅納。因我的殿必
稱為萬民禱告的殿！”

3.在這段經文中，神向所有的人宣佈，若是他們謹守安息日、遵
守神的約的人，就都可以進入神的殿中（4，6節）。

4.你是否曾經有過被拒於外的經驗？這段經文如何適用於你身
上？

5.“萬民禱告的殿”（7節）；神的心意，無論是昔日透過以色
列民，或今日透過教會，都是為要吸引萬民來敬拜祂。你心目
中神的國度是否有包括萬民？你如何追求來成為“萬民”的信
仰群體中的一員？

6.默想、認罪、悔改都是禱告的合宜態度，而喜樂也是其中之
一，喜樂又是聖靈所結果子之一（家5：22）。嘗試一下，每
天的260 靈修時間都以喜樂的心來唱吟一首短的敬拜詩歌，開
始與結束每天的讀經禱告時間。

Chapter 56
1 This is what the LORD says: “Maintain justice and do what is right,
for my salvation is close at hand and my righteousness will soon be revealed.
2 Blessed is the one who does this—the person who holds it fast,
who keeps the Sabbath without desecrating it, and keeps their hands from
doing any evil.”3 Let no foreigner who is bound to the LORD say,
“The LORD will surely exclude me from his people.”And let no eunuch
complain, “I am only a dry tree.”4 For this is what the LORD says:
“To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths, who choose what pleases me
and hold fast to my covenant—5 to them I will give within my temple and
its walls a memorial and a name better than sons and daughters;I will give
them an everlasting name that will endure forever.6 And foreigners who
bind themselves to the LORD to minister to him,to love the name of the
LORD, and to be his servants,all who keep the Sabbath without desecrating
it and who hold fast to my covenant—7 these I will bring to my holy
mountain and give them joy in my house of prayer.Their burnt offerings
and sacrifices will be accepted on my altar;for my house will be called a
house of prayer for all nations.”

3. In this passage, God is extending an inclusive policy to all people to
enter into the temple if they keep Sabbath and keep God’s covenant
(verses 4, 6). Have you ever felt an outsider or been excluded from
joining some group? How does this passage apply to you today?

4. “A house of prayer for all nations”(v7).

5. Meditation, confession and repentance are proper attitudes for
prayer, but so is joy, as this verse reminds us. Joy is also one of the
fruits of the spirit (Gal 5:22). Try to begin or end with a praise song
to help bring joy to your prayer/devotion time.

第五十五章
6當趁耶和華可尋找的時候尋找他，相近的時候求告他。7惡人當
離棄自己的道路，不義的人當除掉自己的意念。歸向耶和華，耶
和華就必憐恤他；當歸向我們的神，因為神必廣行赦免。8耶和華
說：“我的意念非同你們的意念，我的道路非同你們的道路。
9天怎樣高過地，照樣，我的道路高過你們的道路，我的意念高過
你們的意念。10雨雪從天而降，並不返回，卻滋潤地土，使地上發
芽結實，使撒種的有種，使要吃的有糧。11我口所出的話也必如
此，決不徒然返回，卻要成就我所喜悅的，在我發它去成就的事上
（註：“發它去成就”或作“所命定”）必然亨通。12你們必歡歡
喜喜而出來，平平安安蒙引導；大山小山必在你們面前發聲歌唱，
田野的樹木也都拍掌。13松樹長出，代替荊棘，番石榴長出，代替
蒺藜。這要為耶和華留名，作為永遠的證據，不能剪除。”

神？為什麼？神在這段經文中向你說什麼？

4.想像一下你所看過的巍峨峻嶺，峰巒疊嶂。若是大山小山都因
神為你所做的一切而“發聲歌唱、拍掌”，你會覺得怎樣呢？
這表明你在神眼中的地位如何？

Chapter 55
6 Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near.
7 Let the wicked forsake their ways and the unrighteous their thoughts.
Let them turn to the LORD, and he will have mercy on them,and to our
God, for he will freely pardon. 8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord.9 “As the heavens
are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my
thoughts than your thoughts.10 As the rain and the snow come down from
heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it
bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me
empty,but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which
I sent it.12 You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace;the mountains
and hills will burst into song before you,and all the trees of the field will
clap their hands.13 Instead of the thornbush will grow the juniper, and
instead of briers the myrtle will grow.This will be for the Lord’s renown,
for an everlasting sign, that will endure forever.”

from him this week? Why? What is God speaking to you about
this?

4. Think of the most impressive range of mountains you have ever
seen, the Rockies, or some other mountains. How would you feel
as you realized that the mountains were singing for joy over what
God has done in and for you (v12)? What does that imply about
your importance to God?

第五十四章
4不要懼怕，因你必不至蒙羞；也不要抱愧，因你必不至受辱。你
必忘記幼年的羞愧，不再記念你寡居的羞辱。5因為造你的是你的
丈夫，萬軍之耶和華是他的名；救贖你的是以色列的聖者，他必稱
為全地之神。6耶和華召你，如召被離棄心中憂傷的妻，就是幼年
所娶被棄的妻。”這是你神所說的。7“我離棄你不過片時，卻要
施大恩將你收回。8我的怒氣漲溢，頃刻之間向你掩面，卻要以永
遠的慈愛憐恤你。”這是耶和華你的救贖主說的。9這事在我好像
挪亞的洪水。我怎樣起誓不再使挪亞的洪水漫過遍地，我也照樣起
誓不再向你發怒，也不斥責你。10大山可以挪開，小山可以遷移；
但我的慈愛必不離開你，我平安的約也不遷移。”這是憐恤你的耶
和華說的。

Chapter 54
4 “Do not be afraid; you will not be put to shame.Do not fear disgrace;
you will not be humiliated.You will forget the shame of your youth and
remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.5 For your Maker is
your husband— the Lord Almighty is his name—the Holy One of Israel is
your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth.6 The Lord will call
you back as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit—a wife
who married young, only to be rejected,” says your God.7 “For a brief moment
I abandoned you, but with deep compassion I will bring you back.
8 In a surge of anger I hid my face from you for a moment,but with everlasting
kindness I will have compassion on you,”says the Lord your Redeemer.
9 “To me this is like the days of Noah,when I swore that the waters
of Noah would never again cover the earth.So now I have sworn not to
be angry with you, never to rebuke you again.10 Though the mountains
be shaken and the hills be removed,yet my unfailing love for you will not
be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,”says the Lord, who has
compassion on you.

3. When you hear God saying that he turned his back in anger only
for a moment but was not giving up on the relationship (esp. verses
7-8), what is your emotion? If this reminds you of someone in your
life (past or present) that had made similar promises to you but reneged
later, talk with God about it.

4. Read v10 as if God’s speaking to you right now. Spend a few minutes
sitting quietly in his presence, enjoying the tranquility of that
space before you move on to the rest of your day.

第五十三章
4他誠然擔當我們的憂患，背負我們的痛苦；我們卻以為他受責
罰，被神擊打苦待了。5哪知他為我們的過犯受害，為我們的罪孽
壓傷。因他受的刑罰，我們得平安；因他受的鞭傷，我們得醫治。
6我們都如羊走迷，各人偏行己路。耶和華使我們眾人的罪孽都歸
在他身上。7他被欺壓，在受苦的時候卻不開口（註：或作“他受
欺壓，卻自卑不開口”）。他像羊羔被牽到宰殺之地，又像羊在剪
毛的人手下無聲，他也是這樣不開口。8因受欺壓和審判，他被奪
去，至於他同世的人，誰想他受鞭打、從活人之地被剪除，是因我
百姓的罪過呢？

默想：
1.慢慢地讀這第四首預言耶穌的僕人之歌，若時間容許，將全章
讀完。

2.讀這段經文，想像當時耶穌經歷的情景，就好像你在場親自目
睹這一切。

3.安靜——閱讀/聆聽——默想——禱告——默觀/安歇主懷

5.在今天的生活中，經常回到這個思想上：“耶穌的死竟然完全
沒有一絲為自己著想的念頭”。若祂是以這樣的心態死的，
那祂更是以怎樣的心態來活呢？然後不斷地學習耶穌“無私
地”生活，來過完這一天。

Chapter 53
4 Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering,yet we considered him
punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.5 But he was pierced for
our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities;the punishment that
brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.6 We all,
like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way;and
the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.7 He was oppressed and
afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth;he was led like a lamb to the
slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,so he did not open his
mouth.8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away. Yet who of his
generation protested?For he was cut off from the land of the living; for the
transgression of my people he was punished.

Meditation
1. Read the passage aloud slowly, knowing that this “suffering servant”
passage is a prophecy about Jesus. If possible, read the whole
chapter as well.

2. Read this passage. See the servant of God, so battered and disfigured
he hardly seems human anymore. Live with him as he is
despised and rejected by men. Watch him take up our iniquities and
be pierced for our transgressions. See the blood flow as his life isEdit
crushed from him, as from a sin offering. And realize that he chose
this fate, that by his wounds we might be healed.

3. Silence – Read/Listen – Meditate – Pray – Contemplate

4. Respond to God about the words that touched you most. Talk also
to God about how Jesus can make you righteous.

5. Move through your day with this idea: Jesus “died without a thought
for his own welfare”. If he died that way, how much more must he
have lived that way? Try living that selflessly a few minutes at a
time.

7那報佳音、傳平安、報好信、傳救恩的，對錫安說：“你的神作
王了！”這人的腳登山何等佳美！8聽啊！你守望之人的聲音，他
們揚起聲來，一同歌唱。因為耶和華歸回錫安的時候，他們必親眼
看見。9耶路撒冷的荒場啊，要發起歡聲，一同歌唱！因為耶和華
安慰了他的百姓，救贖了耶路撒冷。10耶和華在萬國眼前露出聖
臂，地極的人都看見我們神的救恩了。11你們離開吧！離開吧！從
巴比倫出來，不要沾不潔淨的物，要從其中出來。你們扛抬耶和華
器皿的人哪，務要自潔。12你們出來必不至急忙，也不至奔逃，因
為耶和華必在你們前頭行；以色列的神必作你們的後盾。

3.本段活潑地描繪耶和華神已擊敗巴比倫，使者傳來報捷之聲。
先知以賽亞呼籲耶路撒冷從頹垣敗瓦中起來回應這消息；至於
被逐於異邦的則要自潔離開巴比倫，返回故土。

4.你是否曾經嚐過為主作見證的平安與喜樂？你在這個星期中怎
樣可以經歷更多福音的“好消息”？ 求神將幾位上未信主的
家人或朋友放在你的心中，讓你可以開始每天為他們禱告。

Chapter 52
7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good
news,who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim
salvation,who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!”8 Listen! Your watchmen
lift up their voices; together they shout for joy.When the Lord returns to
Zion, they will see it with their own eyes.9 Burst into songs of joy together,
you ruins of Jerusalem,for the Lord has comforted his people, he has
redeemed Jerusalem.10 The Lord will lay bare his holy arm in the sight
of all the nations,and all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our
God.11 Depart, depart, go out from there! Touch no unclean thing!
Come out from it and be pure, you who carry the articles of the Lord’s
house.12 But you will not leave in haste or go in flight;
for the Lord will go before you, the God of Israel will be your rear guard.

4. When have you tasted real joy and peace in witnessing? How could
you experience more of the “good tiding” of the gospel this week?
Pray and ask God to bring a few faces of friends or family members
that don’t believe in Jesus and that you can begin praying for
daily.

第五十一章
4我的百姓啊，要向我留心；我的國民哪，要向我側耳。因為訓誨
必從我而出；我必堅定我的公理為萬民之光。5我的公義臨近，我
的救恩發出，我的膀臂要審判萬民；海島都要等候我，倚賴我的膀
臂。6你們要向天舉目，觀看下地，因為天必像煙雲消散，地必如
衣服漸漸舊了，其上的居民也要如此死亡（註：“如此死亡”或
作“像蠓蟲死亡”）；惟有我的救恩永遠長存，我的公義也不廢
掉。7知道公義、將我訓誨存在心中的民，要聽我言！不要怕人的
辱罵，也不要因人的毀謗驚惶。8因為蛀蟲必咬他們，好像咬衣
服；蟲子必咬他們，如同咬羊羢。惟有我的公義永遠長存，我的
救恩直到萬代。”9耶和華的膀臂啊，興起！興起！以能力為衣穿
上，像古時的年日、上古的世代興起一樣。從前砍碎拉哈伯、刺透
大魚的，不是你嗎？10使海與深淵的水乾涸、使海的深處變為贖民
經過之路的，不是你嗎？11耶和華救贖的民必歸回，歌唱來到錫
安；永樂必歸到他們的頭上，他們必得著歡喜快樂，憂愁歎息盡都
逃避。

Chapter 51
4 “Listen to me, my people; hear me, my nation:Instruction will go out
from me; my justice will become a light to the nations.5 My righteousness
draws near speedily, my salvation is on the way,and my arm will bring
justice to the nations.The islands will look to me and wait in hope for my
arm.6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, look at the earth beneath;the heavens
will vanish like smoke, the earth will wear out like a garment and its
inhabitants die like flies.But my salvation will last forever, my righteousness
will never fail.7 “Hear me, you who know what is right, you people
who have taken my instruction to heart:Do not fear the reproach of mere
mortals or be terrified by their insults.8 For the moth will eat them up like
a garment; the worm will devour them like wool.But my righteousness
will last forever, my salvation through all generations.”9 Awake, awake,
arm of the LORD, clothe yourself with strength!Awake, as in days gone
by, as in generations of old.Was it not you who cut Rahab to pieces, who
pierced that monster through?10 Was it not you who dried up the sea,
the waters of the great deep,who made a road in the depths of the sea so
that the redeemed might cross over?11 Those the LORD has rescued will
return.They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their
heads.Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will
flee away.

face today?

4. Speak to God about your new perspective as well as your problems.

第五十章
4主耶和華賜我受教者的舌頭，使我知道怎樣用言語扶助疲乏的
人。主每早晨提醒，提醒我的耳朵，使我能聽，像受教者一樣。
5主耶和華開通我的耳朵，我並沒有違背，也沒有退後。6人打我的
背，我任他打；人拔我腮頰的鬍鬚，我由他拔；人辱我，吐我，我
並不掩面。7主耶和華必幫助我，所以我不抱愧。我硬著臉面好像
堅石，我也知道我也不至蒙羞。8稱我為義的與我相近；誰與我爭
論？可以與我一同站立！誰與我作對？可以就近我來！9主耶和華
要幫助我，誰能定我有罪呢？他們都像衣服漸漸舊了，為蛀蟲所咬。

Chapter 50
4 The Sovereign Lord has given me a well-instructed tongue,to know the
word that sustains the weary.He wakens me morning by morning,wakens
my ear to listen like one being instructed.5 The Sovereign Lord has opened
my ears;I have not been rebellious, I have not turned away.6 I offered my
back to those who beat me,my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard;
I did not hide my face from mocking and spitting.7 Because the Sovereign
Lord helps me, I will not be disgraced.Therefore have I set my face like
flint, and I know I will not be put to shame.8 He who vindicates me is near.
Who then will bring charges against me? Let us face each other!Who is
my accuser? Let him confront me!9 It is the Sovereign Lord who helps
me. Who will condemn me?They will all wear out like a garment; the
moths will eat them up.

第四十九章
13諸天哪，應當歡呼！大地啊，應當快樂！眾山哪，應當發聲歌
唱！因為耶和華已經安慰他的百姓，也要憐恤他困苦之民。14錫安
說：“耶和華離棄了我，主忘記了我。”15“婦人焉能忘記她吃奶
的嬰孩，不憐恤她所生的兒子？即或有忘記的，我卻不忘記你。
16看哪！我將你銘刻在我掌上；你的牆垣常在我眼前。17你的兒女
必急速歸回；毀壞你的、使你荒廢的，必都離你出去。18你舉目向
四方觀看，他們都聚集來到你這裡。”耶和華說：“我指著我的永
生起誓，你必要以他們為妝飾佩戴，以他們為華帶束腰像新婦一樣。

Chapter 49
13 Shout for joy, you heavens; rejoice, you earth; burst into song, you
mountains!For the Lord comforts his people and will have compassion on
his afflicted ones.14 But Zion said, “The Lord has forsaken me, the Lord
has forgotten me.”15 “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast
and have no compassion on the child she has borne?Though she may forget,
I will not forget you!16 See, I have engraved you on the palms of my
hands; your walls are ever before me.17 Your children hasten back, and
those who laid you waste depart from you.18 Lift up your eyes and look
around; all your children gather and come to you.As surely as I live,” declares
the Lord,“you will wear them all as ornaments; you will put them
on, like a bride.

的命令，你的平安就如河水，你的公義就如海浪。19你的後裔也必
多如海沙，你腹中所生的必多如沙粒。他的名在我面前必不剪除，
也不滅絕。”20你們要從巴比倫出來，從迦勒底人中逃脫，以歡呼
的聲音傳揚說：“耶和華救贖了他的僕人雅各！”你們要將這事宣
揚到地極。21耶和華引導他們經過沙漠。他們並不乾渴；他為他們
使水從磐石而流，分裂磐石，水就湧出。
22耶和華說：“惡人必不得平安！”

Chapter 48
17 This is what the Lord says— your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God, who teaches you what is best for you,who directs
you in the way you should go.18 If only you had paid attention to my
commands, your peace would have been like a river,your well-being like
the waves of the sea.19 Your descendants would have been like the sand,
your children like its numberless grains;their name would never be blotted
out nor destroyed from before me.”20 Leave Babylon, flee from the
Babylonians!Announce this with shouts of joy and proclaim it.
Send it out to the ends of the earth; say, “The Lord has redeemed his servant
Jacob.”21 They did not thirst when he led them through the deserts;
he made water flow for them from the rock;he split the rock and water
gushed out.22 “There is no peace,” says the Lord, “for the wicked.”

than comfort. He or she forfeits peace (v18). The person who
abandons confidence in the Word of God will soon abandon God’s
commands as well. He will soon discover that he has no peace.

4. What is your present situation? Do you have peace? Is God calling
you to repent and trust in God? Do you feel capable of releasing all
of your burdens to God or do you hold back because you’re not sure
if he will be there for you?

8你這專好宴樂、安然居住的，現在當聽這話。你心中說：‘惟
有我， 除我以外再沒有別的， 我必不至寡居， 也不遭喪子之
事。’9哪知，喪子、寡居這兩件事，在一日轉眼之間必臨到你，
正在你多行邪術、廣施符咒的時候，這兩件事必全然臨到你身上。
10你素來倚仗自己的惡行說：‘無人看見我。’你的智慧聰明使你
偏邪，並且你心裡說：‘惟有我，除我以外再沒有別的。’11因
此，禍患要臨到你身，你不知何時發現（註：“何時發現”或
作“如何驅逐”），災害落在你身上，你也不能除掉，所不知道的
毀滅也必忽然臨到你身。12站起來吧！用你從幼年勞神施行的符咒
和你許多的邪術，或者可得益處，或者可得強勝。13你籌劃太多，
以致疲倦。讓那些觀天象的、看星宿的、在月朔說預言的，都站起
來，救你脫離所要臨到你的事。14他們要像碎秸被火焚燒，不能救
自己脫離火燄之力，這火並非可烤的炭火，也不是可以坐在其前的
火。15 你所勞神的事都要這樣與你無益。從幼年與你貿易的，也都
各奔各鄉，無人救你。”

Chapter 47
8 “Now then, listen, you lover of pleasure, lounging in your security and
saying to yourself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me. I will never be
a widow or suffer the loss of children.’9 Both of these will overtake you
in a moment, on a single day: loss of children and widowhood.They will
come upon you in full measure, in spite of your many sorceriesand all your
potent spells.10 You have trusted in your wickedness and have said, ‘No
one sees me.’Your wisdom and knowledge mislead you when you say to
yourself,‘I am, and there is none besides me.’11 Disaster will come upon
you, and you will not know how to conjure it away.A calamity will fall
upon you that you cannot ward off with a ransom;a catastrophe you cannot
foresee will suddenly come upon you.12 “Keep on, then, with your magic
spells and with your many sorceries,which you have labored at since childhood.
Perhaps you will succeed, perhaps you will cause terror.13 All the
counsel you have received has only worn you out! Let your astrologers
come forward, those stargazers who make predictions month by month,
let them save you from what is coming upon you.14 Surely they are like
stubble; the fire will burn them up.They cannot even save themselves from
the power of the flame.These are not coals for warmth; this is not a fire to
sit by.15 That is all they are to you—these you have dealt with and labored
with since childhood.All of them go on in their error; there is not one that
can save you.

抬的如今成了重馱，使牲畜疲乏。2都一同彎腰屈身，不能保全
重馱，自己倒被擄去。3雅各家、以色列家一切餘剩的要聽我
言：“你們自從生下，就蒙我保抱；自從出胎，便蒙我懷搋。4直
到你們年老，我仍這樣；直到你們髮白，我仍懷搋。我已造作，也
必保抱；我必懷抱，也必拯救。5你們將誰與我相比，與我同等，
可以與我比較，使我們相同呢？6那從囊中抓金子、用天平平銀子
的人，雇銀匠製造神像，他們又俯伏又叩拜。7他們將神像抬起，
扛在肩上，安置在定處，它就站立，不離本位。人呼求它，它不能
答應，也不能救人脫離患難。8你們當想念這事，自己作大丈夫。
悖逆的人哪，要心裡思想。9你們要追念上古的事，因為我是神，
並無別神；我是神，再沒有能比我的！

Chapter 46
1 Bel bows down, Nebo stoops low; their idols are borne by beasts of
burden.The images that are carried about are burdensome, a burden for the
weary.2 They stoop and bow down together; unable to rescue the burden,
they themselves go off into captivity.3 “Listen to me, you descendants
of Jacob, all the remnant of the people of Israel,you whom I have upheld
since your birth, and have carried since you were born.4 Even to your old
age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you.I have made you
and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.5 “With whom
will you compare me or count me equal?To whom will you liken me that
we may be compared?6 Some pour out gold from their bags and weigh out
silver on the scales;they hire a goldsmith to make it into a god, and they
bow down and worship it.7 They lift it to their shoulders and carry it; they
set it up in its place, and there it stands.From that spot it cannot move.
Even though someone cries out to it, it cannot answer;it cannot save them
from their troubles.8 “Remember this, keep it in mind, take it to heart, you
rebels.9 Remember the former things, those of long ago;I am God, and
there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me.

the Lord(verses 3-4)?

4. What is your emotion as you read this passage, comparing the burdens
of the idols and God as your father carrying you when you
were weak? Or as a strong man sustaining you when you were
tired? Or as a warrior rescuing you when you were trapped?

要修直他一切道路。他必建造我的城，釋放我被擄的民，不是為工

from the rising of the sun to the place of its setting people may know there
is none besides me. I am the Lord, and there is no other.7 I form the light

all these things.8 “You heavens above, rain down my righteousness; let the
clouds shower it down.Let the earth open wide, let salvation spring up, let
righteousness flourish with it; I, the Lord, have created it.9 “Woe to those
who quarrel with their Maker, those who are nothing but potsherds among
the potsherds on the ground.Does the clay say to the potter, ‘What are you
making?’Does your work say, ‘The potter has no hands’?10 Woe to the
one who says to a father, ‘What have you begotten?’or to a mother, ‘What
have you brought to birth?’11 “This is what the Lord says—the Holy One
of Israel, and its Maker:Concerning things to come, do you question me
about my children,or give me orders about the work of my hands?12 It is
I who made the earth and created mankind on it.My own hands stretched
out the heavens; I marshaled their starry hosts.13 I will raise up Cyrus in
my righteousness: I will make all his ways straight.He will rebuild my
city and set my exiles free, but not for a price or reward, says the Lord
Almighty.”

燒火。他自己取些烤火，又燒著烤餅，而且做神像跪拜，做雕刻的
偶像向它叩拜。16他把一分燒在火中，把一分烤肉吃飽。自己烤火
說：“阿哈！我暖和了！我見火了！”17他用剩下的做了一神，就
是雕刻的偶像。他向這偶像俯伏叩拜，禱告它說：“求你拯救我，
因你是我的神。”18他們不知道，也不思想，因為耶和華閉住他們
的眼，不能看見；塞住他們的心，不能明白。19誰心裡也不醒悟，
也沒有知識，沒有聰明，能說：“我曾拿一分在火中燒了，在炭火
上烤過餅，我也烤過肉吃。這剩下的我豈要做可憎的物嗎？我豈可
向木墩子叩拜呢？”20他以灰為食，心中昏迷，使他偏邪，他不能

14 He cut down cedars, or perhaps took a cypress or oak.He let it grow
among the trees of the forest,or planted a pine, and the rain made it grow.
15 It is used as fuel for burning; some of it he takes and warms himself,
he kindles a fire and bakes bread.But he also fashions a god and worships
it; he makes an idol and bows down to it.16 Half of the wood he burns in
the fire; over it he prepares his meal, he roasts his meat and eats his fill.
He also warms himself and says, “Ah! I am warm; I see the fire.”
17 From the rest he makes a god, his idol; he bows down to it and worships.
He prays to it and says, “Save me! You are my god!”18 They know
nothing, they understand nothing; their eyes are plastered over so they
cannot see,and their minds closed so they cannot understand.
19 No one stops to think, no one has the knowledge or understanding to
say,“Half of it I used for fuel; I even baked bread over its coals, I roasted
meat and I ate. Shall I make a detestable thing from what is left?
Shall I bow down to a block of wood?”20 Such a person feeds on ashes;
a deluded heart misleads him;he cannot save himself, or say, “Is not this
thing in my right hand a lie?”

summoned you by name; you are mine.2 When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;and when you pass through the rivers, they will not
sweep over you.When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy
One of Israel, your Savior;I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in
your stead.4 Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because
I love you,I will give people in exchange for you, nations in exchange for
your life.5 Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children
from the east and gather you from the west.6 I will say to the north, ‘Give
them up!’ and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’Bring my sons from
afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth—7 everyone who is
called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and
made.”

第四十二章
1“看哪！我的僕人，我所扶持、所揀選、心裡所喜悅的。我已將
我的靈賜給他，他必將公理傳給外邦。2他不喧嚷，不揚聲，也不
使街上聽見他的聲音。3壓傷的蘆葦，他不折斷；將殘的燈火，他
不吹滅。他憑真實將公理傳開。4他不灰心，也不喪膽，直到他在
地上設立公理，海島都等候他的訓誨。”5創造諸天，鋪張穹蒼，
將地和地所出的一併鋪開，賜氣息給地上的眾人，又賜靈性給行
在其上之人的神耶和華，他如此說：6“我耶和華憑公義召你，
必攙扶你的手，保守你，使你作眾民的中保（註：“中保”原文
作“約”），作外邦人的光，7開瞎子的眼，領被囚的出牢獄，領
坐黑暗的出監牢。8我是耶和華，這是我的名。我必不將我的榮耀
歸給假神，也不將我的稱讚歸給雕刻的偶像。9看哪！先前的事已
經成就，現在我將新事說明，這事未發以先，我就說給你們聽。”

默想：
1.這是以賽亞書的四篇僕人詩歌（指向神僕耶穌）的第一篇，這
首詩的部份引用在馬太福音12：18-21中來指向基督。

2.安靜——閱讀/聆聽——默想——禱告——默觀/安歇主懷

3.在閱讀默想今天的經文時，有哪個字或詞句特別觸動你的？

4.這段經文是否讓你對主耶穌有一些新鮮的認識？當你把耶穌看
成一個僕人時，你有什麼感受？這段經文怎樣挑戰你——你的
品格，你的服事？你怎樣效法耶穌僕人的心態？

5.當被人利用的時候，我們心中會深感不平；但耶穌卻是柔和謙
卑的來應對。為什麼這個榜樣很難效法？但為什麼又是非常重

要應當學習的功課？

Chapter42
1 “Here is my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom I delight;I
will put my Spirit on him, and he will bring justice to the nations.2 He will
not shout or cry out, or raise his voice in the streets.3 A bruised reed he will
not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.In faithfulness he
will bring forth justice; 4 he will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes
justice on earth.In his teaching the islands will put their hope.”
5 This is what God the LORD says—the Creator of the heavens, who
stretches them out,who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it,
who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it:
6 “I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your
hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people
and a light for the Gentiles,7 to open eyes that are blind, to free captives
from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.
8 “I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another
or my praise to idols.9 See, the former things have taken place, and new
things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you.”

Meditation
1.This is the first of four Servant songs (that refer to Jesus as the servant)
in Isaiah. This song has been quoted in part in Mt 12:18-21
with reference to Christ.

2.Silence – Read/Listen – Meditate – Pray – Contemplate

3.What is the word or phrase that touches you today as you read and
meditate on this passage?

4.Does this passage give you a fresh understanding of the Lord Jesus
and all that he went through? How do you feel when you picture
Christ as a servant? In what way does this passage challenge you
– your character, your service? How can you begin imitating Jesus’
servant attitude in your own life?

5.We often have a difficult time knowing how to handle situations
where we are being taken advantage of. Jesus’ example is one of
meekness and humility. Why is this a difficult example to follow?
Why might it be important to do so?

裔，9你是我從地極所領（註：原文作“抓”）來的，從地角所召
來的，且對你說：‘你是我的僕人’，我揀選你，並不棄絕你。
10你不要害怕，因為我與你同在；不要驚惶，因為我是你的神。我
必堅固你，我必幫助你，我必用我公義的右手扶持你。11凡向你發
怒的必都抱愧蒙羞；與你相爭的必如無有，並要滅亡。12與你爭競
的，你要找他們也找不著；與你爭戰的必如無有，成為虛無。
13因為我耶和華你的神必攙扶你的右手，對你說，不要害怕！我必
幫助你。14你這蟲雅各和你們以色列人，不要害怕！耶和華說，我
必幫助你。”你的救贖主就是以色列的聖者。15“看哪，我已使你
成為有快齒打糧的新器具；你要把山嶺打得粉碎，使岡陵如同糠
秕。16你要把它簸揚，風要吹去，旋風要把它颳散。你倒要以耶和
華為喜樂，以以色列的聖者為誇耀。

Chapter 41
8 “But you, Israel, my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen,
you descendants of Abraham my friend,9 I took you from the ends of the earth,
from its farthest corners I called you.I said, ‘You are my servant’; I have chosen
you and have not rejected you.10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be
dismayed, for I am your God.I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold
you with my righteous right hand.11 “All who rage against you will surely be
ashamed and disgraced;those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish.12
Though you search for your enemies, you will not find them.Those who wage
war against you will be as nothing at all.13 For I am the Lord your God who
takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.14
Do not be afraid, you worm Jacob, little Israel, do not fear,for I myself will help
you,” declares the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.15 “See, I will
make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth.You will
thresh the mountains and crush them, and reduce the hills to chaff.16 You will
winnow them, the wind will pick them up, and a gale will blow them away.
But you will rejoice in the Lord and glory in the Holy One of Israel.

2.The people of Israel were in exile at this time far from their homeland.
There were rumors of a new power rising in the East. And

5.Make your prayer to God based on these “do not fear…do not be
afraid” phrases (verses 10, 13, 14). What would you say to the
Lord? What does God want you to do?

第四十章
21你們豈不曾知道嗎？你們豈不曾聽見嗎？從起初豈沒有人告訴你
們嗎？自從立地的根基，你們豈沒有明白嗎？22神坐在地球大圈之
上，地上的居民好像蝗蟲。他鋪張穹蒼如幔子，展開諸天如可住的
帳棚。23他使君王歸於虛無，使地上的審判官成為虛空。24他們是
剛才栽上（註：“剛才”或作“不曾”。下同），剛才種上，根也
剛才扎在地裡；他一吹在其上，便都枯乾，旋風將他們吹去，像碎
秸一樣。25那聖者說：“你們將誰比我，叫他與我相等呢？26你們
向上舉目，看誰創造這萬象，按數目領出，他一一稱其名，因他的
權能，又因他的大能大力，連一個都不缺。”27雅各啊，你為何
說“我的道路向耶和華隱藏”？以色列啊，你為何言“我的冤屈神
並不查問”？28你豈不曾知道嗎？你豈不曾聽見嗎？永在的神耶和
華，創造地極的主，並不疲乏，也不困倦，他的智慧無法測度。
29疲乏的，他賜能力；軟弱的，他加力量。30就是少年人也要疲乏
困倦，強壯的也必全然跌倒；31但那等候耶和華的，必從新得力。
他們必如鷹展翅上騰，他們奔跑卻不困倦，行走卻不疲乏。

The Second Book of Isaiah — Book of Deliverance
Chapter 40
21 Do you not know? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from
the beginning? Have you not understood since the earth was founded?
22 He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers.
He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like
a tent to live in.23 He brings princes to naught and reduces the rulers of this
world to nothing.24 No sooner are they planted, no sooner are they sown, no
sooner do they take root in the ground,than he blows on them and they wither,
and a whirlwind sweeps them away like chaff.
25 “To whom will you compare me? Or who is my equal?” says the Holy
One.26 Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these?He
who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name.
Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.27
Why do you complain, Jacob? Why do you say, Israel,“My way is hidden from
the Lord; my cause is disregarded by my God”?28 Do you not know? Have
you not heard?The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the
earth.He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.
29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.30
Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;31 but
those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.They will soar on wings
like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,they will walk and not be faint.

Meditation:

第四十七章
8你這專好宴樂、安然居住的，現在當聽這話。你心中說：‘惟
有我， 除我以外再沒有別的， 我必不至寡居， 也不遭喪子之
事。’9哪知，喪子、寡居這兩件事，在一日轉眼之間必臨到你，
正在你多行邪術、廣施符咒的時候，這兩件事必全然臨到你身上。
10你素來倚仗自己的惡行說：‘無人看見我。’你的智慧聰明使你
偏邪，並且你心裡說：‘惟有我，除我以外再沒有別的。’11因
此，禍患要臨到你身，你不知何時發現（註：“何時發現”或
作“如何驅逐”），災害落在你身上，你也不能除掉，所不知道的
毀滅也必忽然臨到你身。12站起來吧！用你從幼年勞神施行的符咒
和你許多的邪術，或者可得益處，或者可得強勝。13你籌劃太多，
以致疲倦。讓那些觀天象的、看星宿的、在月朔說預言的，都站起
來，救你脫離所要臨到你的事。14他們要像碎秸被火焚燒，不能救
自己脫離火燄之力，這火並非可烤的炭火，也不是可以坐在其前的
火。15 你所勞神的事都要這樣與你無益。從幼年與你貿易的，也都
各奔各鄉，無人救你。”

Chapter 47
8 “Now then, listen, you lover of pleasure, lounging in your security and
saying to yourself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me. I will never be
a widow or suffer the loss of children.’9 Both of these will overtake you
in a moment, on a single day: loss of children and widowhood.They will
come upon you in full measure, in spite of your many sorceriesand all your
potent spells.10 You have trusted in your wickedness and have said, ‘No
one sees me.’Your wisdom and knowledge mislead you when you say to
yourself,‘I am, and there is none besides me.’11 Disaster will come upon
you, and you will not know how to conjure it away.A calamity will fall
upon you that you cannot ward off with a ransom;a catastrophe you cannot
foresee will suddenly come upon you.12 “Keep on, then, with your magic
spells and with your many sorceries,which you have labored at since childhood.
Perhaps you will succeed, perhaps you will cause terror.13 All the
counsel you have received has only worn you out! Let your astrologers
come forward, those stargazers who make predictions month by month,
let them save you from what is coming upon you.14 Surely they are like
stubble; the fire will burn them up.They cannot even save themselves from
the power of the flame.These are not coals for warmth; this is not a fire to
sit by.15 That is all they are to you—these you have dealt with and labored
with since childhood.All of them go on in their error; there is not one that
can save you.

第三十九章
1那時，巴比倫王巴拉但的兒子米羅達巴拉但聽見希西家病而痊
愈，就送書信和禮物給他。2希西家喜歡見使者，就把自己寶庫
的金子、銀子、香料、貴重的膏油和他武庫的一切軍器，並所有
的財寶都給他們看。他家中和全國之內，希西家沒有一樣不給他
們看的。3於是先知以賽亞來見希西家王，問他說：“這些人說
甚麼？他們從哪裡來見你？”希西家說：“他們從遠方的巴比倫
來見我。”4以賽亞說：“他們在你家裡看見了甚麼？”希西家
說：“凡我家中所有的，他們都看見了；我財寶中沒有一樣不給他
們看的。”5以賽亞對希西家說：“你要聽萬軍之耶和華的話：
6日子必到，凡你家裡所有的，並你列祖積蓄到如今的，都要被擄
到巴比倫去，不留下一樣。這是耶和華說的。7並且從你本身所生
的眾子，其中必有被擄去在巴比倫王宮裡當太監的。”
8希西家對以賽亞說：“你所說耶和華的話甚好！因為在我的年日
中，必有太平和穩固的景況。”

默想：
1.希西家在面臨亞述王的侵襲時，相信神的權能，確信神會挪開
亞述的威脅，神也真的成就了。當他病重的時候，他相信神要
拯救敬畏神的人，他以自己的虔誠向神懇求醫治，神也確實醫
治了他。

2.但是後來希西家卻跌倒了，以賽亞曾警告過，巴比倫是神百姓
的仇敵；但當巴比倫的使節來“恭賀”希西家王的痊癒時，希
西家王將王宮中所有的寶物都向他們炫耀。以賽亞為此非常憤
怒的宣佈，有一天巴比倫將要來搶奪希西家所有的寶物，並將
他的子孫擄掠為奴。

3.我們對神的話要非常認真，不能只是揀選部分的話語來相信，
接受我們想要的應許而已。我們需要注意神所有的信息，因為
忘記或是選擇性的聆聽，至終會帶來患難。

Chapter 39
1 At that time Marduk-Baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent Hezekiah
letters and a gift, because he had heard of his illness and recovery.
2 Hezekiah received the envoys gladly and showed them what was in his
storehouses—the silver, the gold, the spices, the fine olive oil—his entire
armory and everything found among his treasures. There was nothing in
his palace or in all his kingdom that Hezekiah did not show them.
3 Then Isaiah the prophet went to King Hezekiah and asked, “What did
those men say, and where did they come from?” “From a distant land, ”
Hezekiah replied. “They came to me from Babylon.”4 The prophet asked,
“What did they see in your palace?”“They saw everything in my palace,”
Hezekiah said. “There is nothing among my treasures that I did not show
them.”5 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD Almighty:
6 The time will surely come when everything in your palace, and
all that your predecessors have stored up until this day, will be carried off
to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says the LORD. 7 And some of your descendants,
your own flesh and blood who will be born to you, will be taken
away, and they will become eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
”8 “The word of the LORD you have spoken is good, ” Hezekiah replied.
For he thought, “There will be peace and security in my lifetime. ”

Meditation
1.Hezekiah listened to Isaiah’s words about God’s sovereignty, and
trusted the Lord to remove the Assyrian threat. God did. When he
became sick, he recalled what God had said through Isaiah about
the Lord’s willingness to restore the godly and Hezekiah called on
God, pleading his godly life. And the Lord did heal.

2.But Hezekiah slipped. Isaiah had spoken of Babylon as an enemy
of God’s people. Yet when envoys from Babylon came to “congratulate”
the king on his recovery, Hezekiah showed them every one
of his royal treasures. Isaiah furiously announced that the day was
coming when the Babylonians would carry Hezekiah’s treasures
and his descendants into captivity.

3.We need to take all of God’s words to heart. We can’t pick and
choose parts of God’s word to believe and claim the promises we
want. We need to pay close attention to every message of the Word,
for forgetting or choosing not to hear God’s word can cause us trouble
indeed.

第三十八章
1那時，希西家病得要死。亞摩斯的兒子先知以賽亞去見他，對他
說：“耶和華如此說：你當留遺命與你的家，因為你必死，不能活
了。”2希西家就轉臉朝牆，禱告耶和華說：3“耶和華啊，求你記
念我在你面前怎樣存完全的心，按誠實行事，又做你眼中所看為善
的。”希西家就痛哭了。4耶和華的話臨到以賽亞說：5“你去告訴
希西家說：‘耶和華你祖大衛的神如此說：我聽見了你的禱告，看
見了你的眼淚。我必加增你十五年的壽數；6 並且我要救你和這城
脫離亞述王的手，也要保護這城。

默想：
1.希西家王病得很嚴重，他憂傷至極的向神懇求多活幾年；他以
自己在神面前的忠貞與順服來向神祈求（3節），神答應他的
祈求，給他延長15年的壽數。

2.希西家王的禱告好像很自我中心，很利己；但是神仍然答應延
長他的年日。為什麼神要讓希西家多活十五年？神的應許必然
成就，你相信嗎？你的禱告是否出於對神的信心，相信神必定
成就？

Chapter 38
1 In those days Hezekiah became ill and was at the point of death. The
prophet Isaiah son of Amoz went to him and said, “This is what the LORD
says: Put your house in order, because you are going to die; you will not
recover.”2 Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD,
3 “Remember, LORD, how I have walked before you faithfully and with
wholehearted devotion and have done what is good in your eyes. ” And
Hezekiah wept bitterly.4 Then the word of the LORD came to Isaiah: 5
“Go and tell Hezekiah, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of your father
David, says: I have heard your prayer and seen your tears; I will add fifteen
years to your life. 6 And I will deliver you and this city from the hand
of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city.

Meditation
1.King Hezekiah is struggling with a fatal illness. The heartbroken
king begged God for added years of life. He appeals to God on
the basis of his faithfulness and obedience (v3). God answered his
prayer and promised Hezekiah 15 added years.

2.From a glance reading of Hezekiah’s prayer, it seems very selfserving,
but God still spared his life. Why do you think God let Hezekiah
live an additional fifteen years? How should this example
affect the way you pray?

第三十七章
5希西家王的臣僕就去見以賽亞。6以賽亞對他們說：“要這樣對你
們的主人說：‘耶和華如此說：你聽見亞述王的僕人褻瀆我的話，
不要懼怕。7我必驚動（註：原文作“使靈進入”）他的心，他要
聽見風聲就歸回本地，我必使他在那裡倒在刀下。’”
14希西家從使者手裡接過書信來，看完了，就上耶和華的殿，將書
信在耶和華面前展開。15希西家向耶和華禱告說：16“坐在二基路
伯上萬軍之耶和華以色列的神啊，你，惟有你是天下萬國的神！你
曾創造天地。17耶和華啊，求你側耳而聽！耶和華啊，求你睜眼而
看！要聽西拿基立的一切話，他是打發使者來辱罵永生神的。
18耶和華啊！亞述諸王果然使列國和列國之地變為荒涼，19將列國
的神像都扔在火裡，因為它本不是神，乃是人手所造的，是木頭、
石頭的，所以滅絕它。20耶和華我們的神啊，現在求你救我們脫離
亞述王的手，使天下萬國都知道惟有你是耶和華！”

默想：
1.希西家王上到聖殿向神禱告，求神拯救他和百姓所面臨的極
難。亞述軍隊已經包圍耶路撒冷，希西家王禱告說：“你，惟
有你是天下萬國的神！……求你救我們……”。

2.想像一下當時的情況，希西家王會有什麼感受？留意希西家王
接到敵人的戰書之後，他怎樣回應？你最感動的是什麼？這與
你的現況有什麼關係？

3.思考一下，在你負責的各方面責任中，例如：小組長、經理，
或是有責任維繫一個友誼、關係等。你最近是否遇到什麼問
題，是你有責任來解決的？你怎樣處理（或是不去處理）這個
問題？希西家王的處理方式，能否給你一些榜樣或借鑒？

4.與神交談關於你在這件事上的責任，將你所想，所感受的，都
告訴神。

Chapter 37
5 When the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah, 6 Isaiah said to
them, “Say to your master, ‘Thus says the LORD: Do not be afraid because
of the words that you have heard, with which the young men of the
king of Assyria have reviled me. 7 Behold, I will put a spirit in him, so that
he shall hear a rumor and return to his own land, and I will make him fall
by the sword in his own land.’”14 Hezekiah received the letter from the
messengers and read it. Then he went up to the temple of the LORD and
spread it out before the LORD. 15 And Hezekiah prayed to the LORD:16
“LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, enthroned between the cherubim, you
alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven
and earth. 17 Give ear, LORD, and hear; open your eyes, LORD, and see;
listen to all the words Sennacherib has sent to ridiculethe living God.
18 “It is true, LORD, that the Assyrian kings have laid waste all these
peoples and their lands. 19 They have thrown their gods into the fire and
destroyed them, for they were not gods but only wood and stone, fashioned
by human hands. 20 Now, LORD our God, deliver us from his hand,
so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you, LORD, are the
only God. ”

Meditation
1.King Hezekiah went to the temple and prayed for God to intervene
in the desperate situation facing his people. The Assyrian army had
surrounded Jerusalem. The king prayed, “You alone are God over
all the kingdoms of the earth…. Deliver us.”

2.Picture what’s going on, and imagine what Hezekiah, the king of
Judah, might be feeling in this situation. Notice how does Hezekiah
react to the message his enemy sends him? What stands out to
you? How do they relate to you?

3.Think about an area in which you hold responsibility, such as being
a group leader, or a manager, or having responsibility to uphold
your end of a friendship. What are some recent problems that you
are responsible to help resolve? In what ways are you dealing (or
not dealing) with them?

4.Talk with God about what it’s like for you to have responsibility in
this area; share your heart and mind with him.

第三十六章
13於是，拉伯沙基站著，用猶大言語大聲喊著說：“你們當聽亞述
大王的話！14王如此說：你們不要被希西家欺哄了，因他不能拯救
你們。15也不要聽希西家使你們倚靠耶和華說：‘耶和華必要拯救
我們，這城必不交在亞述王的手中。’16不要聽希西家的話。因亞
述王如此說：你們要與我和好，出來投降我，各人就可以吃自己葡
萄樹和無花果樹的果子，喝自己井裡的水。17等我來領你們到一個
地方，與你們本地一樣，就是有五穀和新酒之地，有糧食和葡萄園
之地。18你們要謹防，恐怕希西家勸導你們說：‘耶和華必拯救我
們。列國的神有哪一個救他本國脫離亞述王的手呢？19哈馬和亞珥
拔的神在哪裡呢？西法瓦音的神在哪裡呢？他們曾救撒馬利亞脫離
我的手嗎？20這些國的神有誰曾救自己的國脫離我的手呢？難道耶
和華能救耶路撒冷脫離我的手嗎？’”21百姓靜默不言，並不回答
一句，因為王曾吩咐說：“不要回答他。”22當下希勒家的兒子家
宰以利亞敬和書記舍伯那，並亞薩的兒子史官約亞，都撕裂衣服，
來到希西家那裡，將拉伯沙基的話告訴了他。

默想：
1.亞述將軍吆喝著耶路撒冷投降，他不斷挑戰希西家王：他們去
投靠埃及嗎？或是依靠神？周圍列邦那一個神明能夠保佑他的
邦國抵抗亞述的雄大軍事武力（18-19節）？

2.拉伯沙基嘲諷猶大的神：神可能在別處，祂可能很重要；但祂
現在卻與我們無關，祂根本無能為力。他繼續諷刺他們，你們
憑什麼相信？事實的發展證明了以賽亞及希西家的信心是有確
實的根基——在神身上。沒有任何我們可以想像的情況，是會
限制神拯救的能力。

3.你曾否因為自己的信心而遭遇到他人的嘲諷？或是你也曾覺
得，神好像與你無關，無能為力了？回想當時的情況，以及自
己的回應及心情；與神對話，並求神加添你的信心，不論環境
如何，都能“永不回頭”。

Chapter 36
13 Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out in a loud voice in the language
of Judah: “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria! 14
Thus says the king: ‘Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be
able to deliver you. 15 Do not let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD by
saying, “The LORD will surely deliver us. This city will not be given into
the hand of the king of Assyria.” 16 Do not listen to Hezekiah. For thus
says the king of Assyria: Make your peace with me and come out to me.
Then each one of you will eat of his own vine, and each one of his own fig
tree, and each one of you will drink the water of his own cistern,17 until I
come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and
wine, a land of bread and vineyards. 18 Beware lest Hezekiah mislead you
by saying, “The LORD will deliver us.” Has any of the gods of the nations
delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 19 Where are the
gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim? Have they
delivered Samaria out of my hand? 20 Who among all the gods of these
lands have delivered their lands out of my hand, that the LORD should
deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?’”21 But they were silent and answered
him not a word, for the king’s command was, “Do not answer him.” 22
Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna
the secretary, and Joah the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah
with their clothes torn, and told him the words of the Rabshakeh.

Meditation
1.Sennacherib’s field commander called for Jerusalem’s surrender.
He repeatedly challenged Hezekiah: did they depend on Egypt? or
on God? None of the gods of other peoples were able to protect
their lands against Assyria’s military might.

2.The Assyrian commander scoffs Judah’s God. God may exist
somewhere, he may be important to us. But he is irrelevant now,
for he is powerless to act. He continued to taunt them, “On what
are you basing this confidence of yours?” As events unfolded, it
became clear that Isaiah’s and King Hezekiah’s confidence was
rightly placed – in God. There are no circumstances we can imagine
which can limit God’s power to save.

3.Have you been taunted by others because of your faith? Or have
you ever felt that God was not relevant in your situation? Recall the
circumstances, your response and feelings. Continue to converse
with God. Ask for strengthened faith and whatever the situation
there is “no turning back”.

第三十五章
4對膽怯的人說：“你們要剛強，不要懼怕。看哪！你們的神必來
報仇，必來施行極大的報應；他必來拯救你們。”5那時，瞎子的
眼必睜開，聾子的耳必開通。6那時，瘸子必跳躍像鹿，啞巴的舌
頭必能歌唱。在曠野必有水發出，在沙漠必有河湧流。7發光的沙
（註：或作“蜃樓”）要變為水池，乾渴之地要變為泉源；在野
狗躺臥之處，必有青草、蘆葦和蒲草。8在那裡必有一條大道，稱
為“聖路”。污穢人不得經過，必專為贖民行走。行路的人雖愚
昧，也不至失迷。9在那裡必沒有獅子，猛獸也不登這路，在那裡
都遇不見，只有贖民在那裡行走。

默想：
1.安靜地讀這段經文，留意其中所強調的恢復與醫治。
2.下列哪幅圖你最喜愛？
神把事物歸正
瞎眼得看見
聾子得聽見
瘸腿得跳躍
啞巴能歌唱
曠野湧泉源
熱沙變涼爽
你最喜愛這條“聖路”（聖潔之路）的是什麼？
沒有粗莽、叛逆的駕車者
再不會走迷
路上不再有危險的野獸侵襲

3.告訴神，這些圖像中，最觸動你的是什麼？也告訴神原因是什
麼？為你及其他人所需要的重整及醫治，來向神祈求。

Chapter 35
4 say to those with fearful hearts, “Be strong, do not fear; your God will
come, he will come with vengeance; with divine retribution he will come
to save you.”5 Then will the eyes of the blind be opened and the ears of
the deaf unstopped.6 Then will the lame leap like a deer, and the mute
tongue shout for joy. Water will gush forth in the wilderness and streams
in the desert.7 The burning sand will become a pool, the thirsty ground
bubbling springs. In the haunts where jackals once lay, grass and reeds
and papyrus will grow.8 And a highway will be there; it will be called the
Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way.The unclean
will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it.9 No lion will
be there, nor any ravenous beast; they will not be found there.But only the
redeemed will walk there

Meditation
1.Read the passage silently, watching for its emphasis on restoration
and healing.

2.What pictures of healing speak to you?
○ God putting things right
○ blind eyes opening
○ deaf ears hearing
○ disabled people leaping
○ voiceless people singing
○ water flowing in the desert
○ hot sands suddenly becoming cool
What do you like best about the “Way of Holiness”?
○ no rude or rebellious drivers
○ can’t get lost on it
○ no dangerous animals to stop you in your tracks

3.Tell God about the images you most resonate with. Tell him why.
Ask God for the restoration or healing that you or others need.

第三十四章
1列國啊，要近前來聽！眾民哪，要側耳而聽！地和其上所充滿
的，世界和其中一切所出的，都應當聽！2因為耶和華向萬國發忿
恨，向他們的全軍發烈怒，將他們滅盡，交出他們受殺戮。3被殺
的必然拋棄，屍首臭氣上騰，諸山被他們的血融化。4天上的萬象
都要消沒；天被捲起，好像書卷。其上的萬象要殘敗，像葡萄樹的
葉子殘敗，又像無花果樹的葉子殘敗一樣。5因為我的刀在天上已
經喝足。這刀必臨到以東和我所咒詛的民，要施行審判。6耶和華
的刀滿了血，用脂油和羊羔、公山羊的血，並公綿羊腰子的脂油滋
潤的。因為耶和華在波斯拉有獻祭的事；在以東地大行殺戮。7野
牛、牛犢和公牛要一同下來。他們的地喝醉了血；他們的塵土因脂
油肥潤。

默想：
1.這章預言是不容易讀下去的，其中描述到神因為全地的悖逆而
施展的懲罰、與破壞。那些悖逆的國家不肯轉向神，因此，神
要將他們的土地歸給鳥類與野獸。而神所命定的，必然要成就。
2.讀完這段經文，或是整章聖經後，你對神有怎樣的看法？若是
你換一個角色，從被壓迫者的觀點來讀，特別讀到將來神要
為你伸張公義，推翻壓逼你的人，這時， 你對神會有什麼感受？

Chapter 34
1 Come near, you nations, and listen; pay attention, you peoples! Let the
earth hear, and all that is in it, the world, and all that comes out of it!
2 The LORD is angry with all nations; his wrath is on all their armies.
He will totally destroy them, he will give them over to slaughter.3 Their
slain will be thrown out, their dead bodies will stink; the mountains will
be soaked with their blood.4 All the stars in the sky will be dissolved and
the heavens rolled up like a scroll; all the starry host will fall like withered
leaves from the vine, like shriveled figs from the fig tree.5 My sword
has drunk its fill in the heavens; see, it descends in judgment on Edom,
the people I have totally destroyed.6 The sword of the LORD is bathed
in blood, it is covered with fat—the blood of lambs and goats, fat from
the kidneys of rams. For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah and a great
slaughter in the land of Edom. 7 And the wild oxen will fall with them,
the bull calves and the great bulls. Their land will be drenched with blood,
and the dust will be soaked with fat.

Meditation
1.This whole chapter is almost too tough to hear. It describes God’s
undoing of those parts of creation that refuse to accept the sovereignty
of God. The nations that God would judge refused to respond
to the Lord. Therefore, their lands would be returned to the
birds and the beasts. What God has ordained is certain to pass.

2.How do you feel about God after reading this passage? How might
you feel if you read it from the viewpoint of an oppressed person
reflecting on the fact that justice would one day overtake your oppressor?
