“Do not be afraid;(A) you will not be put to shame.(B)
    Do not fear disgrace;(C) you will not be humiliated.
You will forget the shame of your youth(D)
    and remember no more the reproach(E) of your widowhood.(F)
For your Maker(G) is your husband(H)
    the Lord Almighty is his name—
the Holy One(I) of Israel is your Redeemer;(J)
    he is called the God of all the earth.(K)
The Lord will call you back(L)
    as if you were a wife deserted(M) and distressed in spirit—
a wife who married young,(N)
    only to be rejected,” says your God.
“For a brief moment(O) I abandoned(P) you,
    but with deep compassion(Q) I will bring you back.(R)
In a surge of anger(S)
    I hid(T) my face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting kindness(U)
    I will have compassion(V) on you,”
    says the Lord your Redeemer.(W)

“不要惧怕,因为你不会再受羞辱;
不要怕,因为你不会再受凌辱。
你必忘记年轻时的羞辱,
不再想起寡居时的耻辱。
因为造你的是你的丈夫,
祂名叫万军之耶和华;
救赎你的是以色列的圣者,
祂是普天下的上帝。
耶和华要召你回来,
如同召一个遭遗弃、
心中忧伤的年轻妻子。
这是你的上帝说的。
我丢弃了你片刻,
但我要怀着极大的怜悯接你回来。
我盛怒之下暂时掩面不理你,
但我要以永远不变的慈爱怜悯你。
这是你的救赎主耶和华说的。
