旧约 - 以赛亚书(Isaiah)第52章

Awake, awake, O Zion, clothe yourself with strength. Put on your garments of splendor, O Jerusalem, the holy city. The uncircumcised and defiled will not enter you again.
Shake off your dust; rise up, sit enthroned, O Jerusalem. Free yourself from the chains on your neck, O captive Daughter of Zion.
For this is what the LORD says: "You were sold for nothing, and without money you will be redeemed."
For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: "At first my people went down to Egypt to live; lately, Assyria has oppressed them.
"And now what do I have here?" declares the LORD. "For my people have been taken away for nothing, and those who rule them mock," declares the LORD. "And all day long my name is constantly blasphemed.
Therefore my people will know my name; therefore in that day they will know that it is I who foretold it. Yes, it is I."
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!"
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.
Burst into songs of joy together, you ruins of Jerusalem, for the LORD has comforted his people, he has redeemed Jerusalem.
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.
Depart, depart, go out from there! Touch no unclean thing! Come out from it and be pure, you who carry the vessels of the LORD.
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.
See, my servant will act wisely; he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.
Just as there were many who were appalled at him--his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man and his form marred beyond human likeness--
so will he sprinkle many nations, and kings will shut their mouths because of him. For what they were not told, they will see, and what they have not heard, they will understand.
以赛亚书第五十二章   赛 52:7> 我有没有向人报过神的好消息?下一个对象是谁? 

  52:7 神说那报好消息人的“脚踪何等佳美”。能够去同别人分享神的好消息,神的救赎、拯救和平安,是多么奇妙的特权!我们应向谁去分享那好消息呢? 

  赛 52:12> 这次以色列人离开异乡,与前次很不同── 

  52:12 人们不必在慌张中离开,因神膏立的塞鲁士( 45:1 ),已通令让被掳的以色列人安全地回到耶路撒冷(参拉 1:1-4 )。他们得到国王的许可和保护。更重要的是,主会走在前面指路,并在后面保护。 

  赛 52:13> 这仆人指的是谁? 

  52:13 这里的“仆人”是指弥赛亚我们的主,祂将因自己的舍生(在第 53 章中有详细的描述)被高举。 

  赛 52:14-15> 憔悴、枯槁──我主因何成这模样?
