以賽亞書 59:19-21
現代文譯本(2019)
19 從東到西,人人都畏懼上主和他的大能。他要像洪水,像旋風一般來到。
20 上主對他的子民說:「我要來救贖耶路撒冷,拯救所有離棄罪惡的人。
21 我親自與你們立約:我把力量和訓誨賜給你們。從現在起,你們要服從我,也要教導你們的子孫世世代代都服從我。」
ESV
19 So they shall fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the LORD drives.
20 “And a Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who turn from transgression,” declares the LORD.
21 “And as for me, this is my covenant with them,” says the LORD: “My Spirit that is upon you, and my words that I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, or out of the mouth of your offspring, or out of the mouth of your children’s offspring,” says the LORD, “from this time forth and forevermore.”
《二十一世紀聖經新譯》
第19-21節人的出身不會使人失去歸向神的資格,重要的是屬靈的境況(19節上、20節下;參太八10-12);這里所指的「約」必是「新約」,立約的人不僅都認識耶和華(耶三十一34),更為神說話,成了先知的國度(參民十一29;珥二28)。
