Chapter 64

64:1 [hgb]  愿 你 裂 天 而 降 ， 愿 山 在 你 面 前 震 动 ，
    [kjv]  Oh that thou wouldest rend¹ the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,
    [bbe]  O let the heavens be broken open and come down, so that the mountains may be shaking before you,
64:2 [hgb]  好 像 火 烧 干 柴 ， 又 像 火 将 水 烧 开 。 使 你 敌 人 知 道 你 的 名 ， 使 列 国 在 你 面 前 发 颤 。
    [kjv]  As when the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries², that the nations may tremble at thy presence!
    [bbe]  As when fire puts the brushwood in flames, or as when water is boiling from the heat of the fire: to make your name feared by your haters, so that the nations may be shaking before you;
64:3 [hgb]  你 曾 行 我 们 不 能 逆 料 可 畏 的 事 。 那 时 你 降 临 ， 山 岭 在 你 面 前 震 动 。
    [kjv]  When thou didst terrible things which we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.
    [bbe]  While you do acts of power for which we are not looking, and which have not come to the ears of men in the past.
64:4 [hgb]  从 古 以 来 人 未 曾 听 见 ， 未 曾 耳 闻 ， 未 曾 眼 见 ， 在 你 以 外 有 什 么 神 为 等 候 他 的 人 行 事 。
    [kjv]  For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
    [bbe]  The ear has not had news of, or the eye seen, ... any God but you, working for the man who is waiting for him.
64:5 [hgb]  你 迎 接 那 欢 喜 行 义 记 念 你 道 的 人 ， 你 曾 发 怒 ， 我 们 仍 犯 罪 。 这 景 况 已 久 。 我 们 还 能 得 救 吗 ？
    [kjv]  Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, those that remember thee in thy ways: behold³, thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.
    [bbe]  Will you not have mercy on him who takes pleasure in doing righteousness, even on those who keep in mind your ways? Truly you were angry, and we went on doing evil, and sinning against you in the past.
64:6 [hgb]  我 们 都 像 不 洁 净 的 人 ， 所 有 的 义 都 像 污 秽 的 衣 服 。 我 们 都 像 叶 子 渐 渐 枯 干 。 我 们 的 罪 孽 好 像 风 把 我 们 吹 去 。
    [kjv]  But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy⁴ rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities⁵, like the wind, have taken us away.
    [bbe]  For we have all become like an unclean person, and all our good acts are like a dirty robe: and we have all become old like a dead leaf, and our sins, like the wind, take us away.
64:7 [hgb]  并 且 无 人 求 告 你 的 名 ， 无 人 奋 力 抓 住 你 。 原 来 你 掩 面 不 顾 我 们 ， 使 我 们 因 罪 孽 消 化 。
    [kjv]  And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
    [bbe]  And there is no one who makes prayer to your name, or who is moved to keep true to you: for your face is veiled from us, and you have given us into the power of our sins.
64:8 [hgb]  耶 和 华 阿 ， 现 在 你 仍 是 我 们 的 父 。 我 们 是 泥 ， 你 是 窑 匠 。 我 们 都 是 你 手 的 工 作 。
    [kjv]  But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.
    [bbe]  But now, O Lord, you are our father; we are the earth, and you are our maker⁶; and we are all the work of your hand.
64:9 [hgb]  耶 和 华 阿 ， 求 你 不 要 大 发 震 怒 ， 也 不 要 永 远 记 念 罪 孽 。 求 你 垂 顾 我 们 ， 我 们 都 是 你 的 百 姓 。
    [kjv]  Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity⁷ for ever: behold, see, we beseech⁸ thee, we are all thy people.
    [bbe]  Be not very angry, O Lord, and do not keep our sins in mind for ever: give ear to our prayer, for we are all your people.
64:10 [hgb]  你 的 圣 邑 变 为 旷 野 ， 锡 安 变 为 旷 野 ， 耶 路 撒 冷 成 为 荒 场 。
    [kjv]  Thy holy cities are a wilderness⁹, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
    [bbe]  Your holy towns have become a waste, Zion has become a waste, Jerusalem is a mass of broken walls.
64:11 [hgb]  我 们 圣 洁 华 美 的 殿 ， 就 是 我 们 列 祖 赞 美 你 的 所 在 ， 被 火 焚 烧 。 我 们 所 羡 慕 的 美 地 ， 尽 都 荒 废 。
    [kjv]  Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
    [bbe]  Our holy and beautiful house, where our fathers gave praise to you, is burned with fire; and all the things of our desire have come to destruction.
64:12 [hgb]  耶 和 华 阿 ， 有 这 些 事 ， 你 还 忍 得 住 吗 ？ 你 仍 静 默 使 我 们 深 受 苦 难 吗 ？
    [kjv]  Wilt¹⁰ thou refrain thyself for these things, O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict¹¹ us very sore?
    [bbe]  In view of all this, will you still do nothing, O Lord? will you keep quiet, and go on increasing our punishment?
