“ I have stirred up one from the north, and he comes— one from the rising sun who calls on my name. He treads on rulers as if they were mortar, as if he were a potter treading the clay.

“ I have stirred up a king who will come from the north. He lives in the east. He will bring honor to me. He walks all over rulers as if they were mud. He steps on them just as a potter stomps on clay.

I stirred up one from the north, and he has come, from the rising of the sun, and he shall call upon my name; he shall trample on rulers as on mortar, as the potter treads clay.

“ But I have stirred up a leader who will approach from the north. From the east he will call on my name. I will give him victory over kings and princes. He will trample them as a potter treads on clay.

“ I have stirred up one from the north, and he has come, one from the east who invokes my name. He will march over rulers as if they were mud, like a potter who treads the clay.

“ I have put one from the north into motion, and he has come; From the rising of the sun he will call on My name; And he will come upon rulers as upon mortar, As the potter treads on clay.”

“ I have raised up one from the north, And he shall come; From the rising of the sun he shall call on My name; And he shall come against princes as though mortar, As the potter treads clay.

I have raised up one from the north, and he is come; from the rising of the sun one that calleth upon my name: and he shall come upon rulers as upon mortar, and as the potter treadeth clay.

“ I have raised up one from the north, and he has come, one from the east who invokes My name. He will march over rulers as if they were mud, like a potter who treads the clay.

I have raised up[ one] from the north, and he shall come: from the rising of the sun shall he call upon my name: and he shall come upon princes as[ upon] morter, and as the potter treadeth clay.

I have stirred up one out of the north and he advances, one from the eastern horizon who prays in my name. He steps on rulers as if they were clay, like a potter treading the clay.

是誰從東方興起了一人，憑公義把他召喚到腳前？是誰把列國交在他面前，讓他制伏君王們？他用刀使他們如塵土，用弓使他們像被吹散的麥稭；

我搗碎他們，如同地上的塵土；我磨碎他們，踐踏他們，如同街上的爛泥。

我要派遣他去攻擊一個不敬虔的國家，吩咐他去攻打我所惱怒的子民，擄財掠貨，踐踏他們，如同踐踏街上的泥土。

他們必像勇士，在戰場上把敵人踐踏在街上的爛泥中；他們必爭戰，因為耶和華與他們同在；他們必使敵人的騎士蒙羞。

是我以公義興起了居魯士，並要修直他一切的道路。他必重建我的城，釋放我的被擄之民，不是為工價，也不是為酬報。」這是萬軍之耶和華說的。

有一個嚴酷的異象向我宣告：「背信者背信，毀滅者行毀滅。以攔哪，上去吧！米底亞啊，圍攻吧！我要使一切的嘆息止住。」

我論居魯士說：『我的牧人！他必成就我所喜悅的一切』，論耶路撒冷說：『必被重建』，又論聖殿說：『根基必被奠定。』」耶和華緊拉著居魯士的右手，讓列國降服在他面前，使君王們的腰帶鬆開；又讓門在他面前敞開，使城門也不關閉——耶和華對所膏立的居魯士如此說：「我必在你前面行，修平崎嶇之地；我要打碎銅門，砍斷鐵閂。我要把暗處的寶物和隱祕處的寶藏賜給你，好讓你知道：是我耶和華以色列的神提你的名召喚了你。為我僕人雅各、我所揀選的以色列的緣故，我提你的名召喚你；你雖然不認識我，我卻給你一個尊名。我是耶和華，別無其二；除我以外沒有神。你雖然不認識我，我卻裝備你；這樣，從日出之地到日落之處，人都會知道：除我以外沒有神；我是耶和華，別無其二。

我從起初就宣告末後的事，從古時就宣告尚未成就的事。我說：『我的籌算必成立，我所喜悅的一切，我都必成就。』我要把猛禽從東方召來，把成就我籌算的人從遙遠之地召來。我已經說出，就必定使之實現；我計劃了，就必定實行。
