耶利米书 6-8
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶路撒冷被围
6 “便雅悯人啊，你们要逃离耶路撒冷！
你们要在提哥亚吹响号角，
在伯·哈基琳发出警报，
因为有大灾难从北方逼近。
2 我要毁灭美丽娇弱的锡安城。
3 敌人必围攻她，
在她周围安营扎寨，
如同牧人带着羊群在她四周搭起帐篷。
4 他们喊道，‘准备作战！
我们中午攻城。’
他们后来说，
‘唉！日已西沉，天色渐暗。
5 起来吧，我们要乘夜攻打她，
毁灭她的宫殿。’”
6 万军之耶和华说：
“你们要砍伐树木，
修筑高台围攻耶路撒冷，
因为这城充满压迫，
该受惩罚。
7 她的邪恶如同泉水涌流不息，
暴力和毁灭层出不穷，
疾病和伤痛接连不断。
8 耶路撒冷啊，你要接受告诫，
否则我要离弃你，
使你荒无人烟。”
叛逆的以色列人
9 万军之耶和华说：
“敌人要把以色列的余民掳掠一空，
如同人摘葡萄摘得一个不剩。”
10 我可以警告谁呢？谁会听呢？
他们耳朵闭塞，什么也听不见！
看啊，耶和华的话逆耳，
他们毫不喜欢。
11 耶和华啊，我怒你所怒，
无法容忍。
耶和华说：“你把我的怒气发向街头的孩童和聚集成群的青年。
丈夫、妻子和老人都要一同被掳。
12 他们的房屋、田地和妻子都要被抢占。
我要伸手攻击这地方的居民。
这是耶和华说的。
13 因为他们无论贵贱，
个个都贪图不义之财；
无论是先知还是祭司，
都行为诡诈。
14 他们敷衍了事地医治我子民的伤痛，
说，‘没事了，没事了！’
其实情况很糟。
15 他们做可憎的事会羞愧吗？
不！他们不知廉耻，
毫不脸红。
因此，他们要与其他人一样灭亡，
死在我的惩罚下。
这是耶和华说的。”
16 耶和华说：
“你们要站在路口观望，
寻访古道，
找到正路并行在其上，
便会得到心灵的安宁。”
但你们却说：“我们拒绝这样做。”
17 耶和华说：“我为你们设立守望者，
提醒你们要听号角声。”
但你们却说：“我们不听。”
18 因此，耶和华说：
“列国啊，你们要听！
众见证人啊，要知道这些百姓的结局！
19 地啊，听着！
我要降灾祸给这些百姓。
他们是自作自受，
因为他们没有听从我的话，
拒绝遵守我的律法。
20 从示巴运来乳香，
从远方带来菖蒲献给我，
有什么用呢？
我不悦纳他们的燔祭，
不喜欢他们的牲畜。”
21 因此，耶和华说：
“我要把绊脚石放在他们前面，
使父子一同绊倒，
邻居和朋友一同灭亡。”
22 耶和华说：
“看啊，有一个民族从北方来，
有一个强国从地极发动进攻。
23 他们残酷无情，毫无怜悯，
手持弓箭长枪，
骑马奔来，声势如狂涛怒吼。
锡安城啊，他们准备列阵攻击你。”
24 我们听到这风声，手脚发软，
痛苦万分，
如分娩的妇人。
25 不要去田野，
不要在路上走，
因为外面危机四伏，
仇敌杀气腾腾。
26 百姓啊，你们要身披麻布，
在灰中打滚；
你们要悲伤痛哭，如丧独子，
因为毁灭者将突然临到我们。
27 耶和华对我说：
“我派你考验我的子民，
就像冶炼金属一样，
好察验他们的行为。
28 他们顽固不化，
如铜如铁，
四处毁谤，
极其败坏。
29 风箱猛力吹火，铅也会熔掉；
但他们被炼了又炼，终是徒然，
因为他们的邪恶仍未除去。
30 他们被称为废弃的银渣，
因为耶和华已丢弃他们。”
圣殿讲道
7 耶和华对耶利米说： 2 “你站在耶和华殿的门口这样宣告，‘从这些门进殿敬拜耶和华的犹大人啊，你们要听耶和华的话。 3 以色列的上帝——万军之耶和华说，你们改过自新，我便让你们在这里安居。 4 你们不要相信那些谎言，说这是耶和华的殿，这是耶和华的殿，这是耶和华的殿。
5 “‘如果你们真正改过自新，彼此公平相待， 6 不欺压异乡人和孤儿寡妇，不在这地方滥杀无辜，不拜其他神明自取毁灭， 7 我便让你们在这块我永远赐给你们祖先的土地上安居。
8 “‘然而，你们竟相信那些空洞的谎言。 9 你们偷盗、谋杀、通奸、起假誓、向巴力献祭、拜素不认识的神明， 10 然后来到这用来敬拜我的殿，站在我面前说自己安全了，以为可以继续做可憎之事。 11 难道这用来敬拜我的殿在你们眼中竟成了贼窝？这些事，我都看在眼里。这是耶和华说的。
12 “‘你们去我曾选为我名所在之地的示罗，看看我是怎样因我以色列子民的罪而惩罚那地方的。 13 我对你们的所作所为一再提出警告，你们却充耳不闻；我呼唤你们，你们却不回应。这是耶和华说的。 14 因此，我要像对付示罗一样对付你们所倚靠的这用来敬拜我的殿，对付我赐给你们和你们祖先的土地。 15 我要把你们从我面前赶走，好像从前赶走你们的弟兄以法莲[a]人一样。’”
16 耶和华说：“耶利米啊，不要为这些百姓祷告，不要替他们哀求，不要为他们向我祈求，因为我必不听。 17 你没有看见他们在犹大各城和耶路撒冷街道上所做的事吗？ 18 孩子拾柴，父亲点火，妇人揉面做饼向天后献祭，向别的神明奠酒，惹我发怒。 19 耶和华说，‘难道他们是在惹我发怒吗？难道他们不是自害己身，自取羞辱吗？’ 20 主耶和华说，‘我要向这地方的人、牲畜、田野的树木和地里的出产发怒，发烈怒，如无法熄灭的火。’”
21 以色列的上帝——万军之耶和华说：“你们把平安祭连同燔祭都拿去吃吧！ 22 因为我把你们祖先带出埃及的时候，并没有吩咐他们献燔祭或其他祭物， 23 只吩咐他们，‘你们要听从我的话，我就做你们的上帝，你们做我的子民；你们遵行我的吩咐，就必蒙福。’ 24 他们却掩耳不听，一意孤行，任意行恶，越来越坏。 25 从你们的祖先离开埃及那天起，一直到今天，我日复一日地差遣我的仆人——众先知到你们那里， 26 但你们掩耳不听，顽固不化，比你们的祖先更邪恶。 27 耶利米啊，你将这番话告诉他们，他们也不会听；你向他们呼吁，他们也不会回应。 28 你要对他们说，‘你们这些国民不听你们上帝耶和华的话，不肯受管教，口中毫无真理。
29 “‘你们要剪掉头发，
在光秃的山上哀哭，
因为耶和华已弃绝这惹祂发怒的百姓。’”
30 耶和华说：“犹大人做了我视为邪恶的事，把可憎的偶像放在用来敬拜我的圣殿中，玷污了圣殿。 31 他们在欣嫩子谷的陀斐特建造丘坛，焚烧自己的儿女。我从未吩咐他们这样做，连想都没想过。这不是我的吩咐，我也从未这样想过。 32 因此，看啊，时候将到，那地方必不再叫陀斐特或欣嫩子谷，而要叫杀戮谷。那里要埋葬死人，直到无处可埋。这是耶和华说的。 33 飞鸟和走兽必吃这百姓的尸体，无人驱赶它们。 34 我要使犹大各城和耶路撒冷街上的欢乐声、新郎和新娘的欢笑声全部消失，因为大地必荒凉。”
8 耶和华说：“那时，犹大王、首领、祭司、先知及耶路撒冷居民的骸骨都要从坟墓中被挖出来， 2 抛散在他们昔日恋慕、供奉、追随、求问、祭拜的日月星辰之下，无人收殓和埋葬，他们好像地上的粪便。 3 我要把这邪恶民族的余民流放异地，他们在那里必痛不欲生。这是万军之耶和华说的。”
4 耶和华吩咐我对犹大人说：
“人跌倒后难道不站起来吗？
人走错了路难道不回头吗？
5 为什么耶路撒冷的居民一味地背叛我？
他们诡诈成性，不肯回头。
6 我仔细听，没有人说实话，
没有人为自己的恶行后悔，说，
‘我做了可怕的事！’
人人一意孤行，
像战马直奔战场。
7 天空的鹳鸟尚且知道来去的季节，
斑鸠、燕子和白鹤也遵守迁徙的时间，
但我的子民却不认识耶和华的法则。
8 “你们怎能说，‘我们有智慧，
因为我们有耶和华的律法’？
事实上，律法教师撒谎的笔把律法篡改了。
9 智者必蒙羞辱，受惊吓，
被捉拿。
看啊，他们既弃掉耶和华的话，
哪里还有智慧可言呢？
10 因此，我要把他们的妻子和田地交给别人，
因为他们无论贵贱，
个个贪图不义之财；
无论是先知还是祭司，
都行为诡诈。
11 他们敷衍了事地医治我子民的伤痛，说，
‘没事了，没事了！’
其实情况很糟。
12 他们做可憎的事会羞愧吗？
不！他们不知廉耻，
毫不脸红。
因此，他们要与其他人一样灭亡，
死在我的惩罚下。
这是耶和华说的。
13 我要彻底灭绝他们。
葡萄树必没有葡萄，
无花果树必没有果子，
树叶也要枯干，
我所赐给他们的都要被夺走。
这是耶和华说的。”
14 他们说：“我们为什么还坐在这里？
大家一起进入坚城，死在那里吧！
我们的上帝耶和华要毁灭我们，
给我们毒药喝，
因为我们得罪了祂。
15 我们期待平安，
却没有平安；
渴望得到医治，
却饱受惊吓。
16 “从但传来敌人战马的嘶鸣，
声音震动大地。
他们要来吞灭我们的土地和作物、城邑和居民。
17 “看啊，我要派毒蛇去咬你们，
法术无法制服它们。”
这是耶和华说的。
18 我有无限忧愁，伤心欲绝。
19 听啊！远处传来我同胞的哀鸣：
“难道耶和华不在锡安了吗？
难道她的王不在她那里了吗？”
耶和华说：“他们为什么供奉雕刻的神像和外族无用的偶像，惹我发怒？”
20 他们说：“麦收已完，
夏季已过，
但我们还未得救。”
21 同胞的创伤令我伤心欲绝，
痛苦万分，
惊慌失措。
22 难道基列没有药物、
没有医生吗？
为什么我同胞的创伤至今未愈？

Jeremiah 6-8
New International Version
Jeremiah 6-8
New International Version
Jerusalem Under Siege
6 “Flee for safety, people of Benjamin!
Flee from Jerusalem!
Sound the trumpet(A) in Tekoa!(B)
Raise the signal over Beth Hakkerem!(C)
For disaster looms out of the north,(D)
even terrible destruction.
2 I will destroy Daughter Zion,(E)
so beautiful and delicate.(F)
3 Shepherds(G) with their flocks will come against her;
they will pitch their tents around(H) her,
each tending his own portion.”
4 “Prepare for battle against her!
Arise, let us attack at noon!(I)
But, alas, the daylight is fading,
and the shadows of evening grow long.
5 So arise, let us attack at night
and destroy her fortresses!”
6 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Cut down the trees(J)
and build siege ramps(K) against Jerusalem.
This city must be punished;
it is filled with oppression.(L)
7 As a well pours out its water,
so she pours out her wickedness.
Violence(M) and destruction(N) resound in her;
her sickness and wounds are ever before me.
8 Take warning, Jerusalem,
or I will turn away(O) from you
and make your land desolate
so no one can live in it.”
9 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Let them glean the remnant(P) of Israel
as thoroughly as a vine;
pass your hand over the branches again,
like one gathering grapes.”
10 To whom can I speak and give warning?
Who will listen(Q) to me?
Their ears are closed[a](R)
so they cannot hear.(S)
The word(T) of the Lord is offensive to them;
they find no pleasure in it.
11 But I am full of the wrath(U) of the Lord,
and I cannot hold it in.(V)
“Pour it out on the children in the street
and on the young men(W) gathered together;
both husband and wife will be caught in it,
and the old, those weighed down with years.(X)
12 Their houses will be turned over to others,(Y)
together with their fields and their wives,(Z)
when I stretch out my hand(AA)
against those who live in the land,”
declares the Lord.
13 “From the least to the greatest,
all(AB) are greedy for gain;(AC)
prophets and priests alike,
all practice deceit.(AD)
14 They dress the wound of my people
as though it were not serious.
‘Peace, peace,’ they say,
when there is no peace.(AE)
15 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct?
No, they have no shame at all;
they do not even know how to blush.(AF)
So they will fall among the fallen;
they will be brought down when I punish(AG) them,”
says the Lord.
16 This is what the Lord says:
“Stand at the crossroads and look;
ask for the ancient paths,(AH)
ask where the good way(AI) is, and walk in it,
and you will find rest(AJ) for your souls.
But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
17 I appointed watchmen(AK) over you and said,
‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet!’(AL)
But you said, ‘We will not listen.’(AM)
18 Therefore hear, you nations;
you who are witnesses,
observe what will happen to them.
19 Hear, you earth:(AN)
I am bringing disaster(AO) on this people,
the fruit of their schemes,(AP)
because they have not listened to my words(AQ)
and have rejected my law.(AR)
20 What do I care about incense from Sheba(AS)
or sweet calamus(AT) from a distant land?
Your burnt offerings are not acceptable;(AU)
your sacrifices(AV) do not please me.”(AW)
21 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“I will put obstacles before this people.
Parents and children alike will stumble(AX) over them;
neighbors and friends will perish.”
22 This is what the Lord says:
“Look, an army is coming
from the land of the north;(AY)
a great nation is being stirred up
from the ends of the earth.(AZ)
23 They are armed with bow and spear;
they are cruel and show no mercy.(BA)
They sound like the roaring sea(BB)
as they ride on their horses;(BC)
they come like men in battle formation
to attack you, Daughter Zion.(BD)”
24 We have heard reports about them,
and our hands hang limp.(BE)
Anguish(BF) has gripped us,
pain like that of a woman in labor.(BG)
25 Do not go out to the fields
or walk on the roads,
for the enemy has a sword,
and there is terror on every side.(BH)
26 Put on sackcloth,(BI) my people,
and roll in ashes;(BJ)
mourn with bitter wailing(BK)
as for an only son,(BL)
for suddenly the destroyer(BM)
will come upon us.
27 “I have made you a tester(BN) of metals
and my people the ore,
that you may observe
and test their ways.
28 They are all hardened rebels,(BO)
going about to slander.(BP)
They are bronze and iron;(BQ)
they all act corruptly.
29 The bellows blow fiercely
to burn away the lead with fire,
but the refining(BR) goes on in vain;
the wicked are not purged out.
30 They are called rejected silver,(BS)
because the Lord has rejected them.”(BT)
False Religion Worthless
7 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: 2 “Stand(BU) at the gate of the Lord’s house and there proclaim this message:
“‘Hear the word of the Lord, all you people of Judah who come through these gates to worship the Lord. 3 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Reform your ways(BV) and your actions, and I will let you live(BW) in this place. 4 Do not trust(BX) in deceptive(BY) words and say, “This is the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord!” 5 If you really change(BZ) your ways and your actions and deal with each other justly,(CA) 6 if you do not oppress(CB) the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow and do not shed innocent blood(CC) in this place, and if you do not follow other gods(CD) to your own harm, 7 then I will let you live in this place, in the land(CE) I gave your ancestors(CF) for ever and ever. 8 But look, you are trusting(CG) in deceptive(CH) words that are worthless.
9 “‘Will you steal(CI) and murder,(CJ) commit adultery(CK) and perjury,[b](CL) burn incense to Baal(CM) and follow other gods(CN) you have not known, 10 and then come and stand(CO) before me in this house,(CP) which bears my Name, and say, “We are safe”—safe to do all these detestable things?(CQ) 11 Has this house,(CR) which bears my Name, become a den of robbers(CS) to you? But I have been watching!(CT) declares the Lord.
12 “‘Go now to the place in Shiloh(CU) where I first made a dwelling(CV) for my Name,(CW) and see what I did(CX) to it because of the wickedness of my people Israel. 13 While you were doing all these things, declares the Lord, I spoke(CY) to you again and again,(CZ) but you did not listen;(DA) I called(DB) you, but you did not answer.(DC) 14 Therefore, what I did to Shiloh(DD) I will now do to the house that bears my Name,(DE) the temple(DF) you trust in, the place I gave to you and your ancestors. 15 I will thrust you from my presence,(DG) just as I did all your fellow Israelites, the people of Ephraim.’(DH)
16 “So do not pray for this people nor offer any plea(DI) or petition for them; do not plead with me, for I will not listen(DJ) to you. 17 Do you not see what they are doing in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? 18 The children gather wood, the fathers light the fire, and the women knead the dough and make cakes to offer to the Queen of Heaven.(DK) They pour out drink offerings(DL) to other gods to arouse(DM) my anger. 19 But am I the one they are provoking?(DN) declares the Lord. Are they not rather harming themselves, to their own shame?(DO)
20 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign(DP) Lord says: My anger(DQ) and my wrath will be poured(DR) out on this place—on man and beast, on the trees of the field and on the crops of your land—and it will burn and not be quenched.(DS)
21 “‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Go ahead, add your burnt offerings to your other sacrifices(DT) and eat(DU) the meat yourselves! 22 For when I brought your ancestors out of Egypt and spoke to them, I did not just give them commands(DV) about burnt offerings and sacrifices,(DW) 23 but I gave them this command:(DX) Obey(DY) me, and I will be your God and you will be my people.(DZ) Walk in obedience to all(EA) I command you, that it may go well(EB) with you. 24 But they did not listen(EC) or pay attention;(ED) instead, they followed the stubborn inclinations of their evil hearts.(EE) They went backward(EF) and not forward. 25 From the time your ancestors left Egypt until now, day after day, again and again(EG) I sent you my servants(EH) the prophets.(EI) 26 But they did not listen to me or pay attention.(EJ) They were stiff-necked(EK) and did more evil than their ancestors.’(EL)
27 “When you tell(EM) them all this, they will not listen(EN) to you; when you call to them, they will not answer.(EO) 28 Therefore say to them, ‘This is the nation that has not obeyed the Lord its God or responded to correction.(EP) Truth(EQ) has perished; it has vanished from their lips.
29 “‘Cut off(ER) your hair and throw it away; take up a lament(ES) on the barren heights, for the Lord has rejected and abandoned(ET) this generation that is under his wrath.
The Valley of Slaughter
30 “‘The people of Judah have done evil(EU) in my eyes, declares the Lord. They have set up their detestable idols(EV) in the house that bears my Name and have defiled(EW) it. 31 They have built the high places of Topheth(EX) in the Valley of Ben Hinnom(EY) to burn their sons and daughters(EZ) in the fire—something I did not command, nor did it enter my mind.(FA) 32 So beware, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when people will no longer call it Topheth or the Valley of Ben Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter,(FB) for they will bury(FC) the dead in Topheth until there is no more room. 33 Then the carcasses(FD) of this people will become food(FE) for the birds and the wild animals, and there will be no one to frighten them away.(FF) 34 I will bring an end to the sounds(FG) of joy and gladness and to the voices of bride and bridegroom(FH) in the towns of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem,(FI) for the land will become desolate.(FJ)
8 “‘At that time, declares the Lord, the bones of the kings and officials of Judah, the bones of the priests and prophets, and the bones(FK) of the people of Jerusalem will be removed(FL) from their graves. 2 They will be exposed to the sun and the moon and all the stars of the heavens, which they have loved and served(FM) and which they have followed and consulted and worshiped.(FN) They will not be gathered up or buried,(FO) but will be like dung lying on the ground.(FP) 3 Wherever I banish them,(FQ) all the survivors of this evil nation will prefer death to life,(FR) declares the Lord Almighty.’
Sin and Punishment
4 “Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord says:
“‘When people fall down, do they not get up?(FS)
When someone turns away,(FT) do they not return?
5 Why then have these people turned away?
Why does Jerusalem always turn away?
They cling to deceit;(FU)
they refuse to return.(FV)
6 I have listened(FW) attentively,
but they do not say what is right.
None of them repent(FX) of their wickedness,
saying, “What have I done?”
Each pursues their own course(FY)
like a horse charging into battle.
7 Even the stork in the sky
knows her appointed seasons,
and the dove, the swift and the thrush
observe the time of their migration.
But my people do not know(FZ)
the requirements of the Lord.
8 “‘How can you say, “We are wise,
for we have the law(GA) of the Lord,”
when actually the lying pen of the scribes
has handled it falsely?
9 The wise(GB) will be put to shame;
they will be dismayed(GC) and trapped.(GD)
Since they have rejected the word(GE) of the Lord,
what kind of wisdom(GF) do they have?
10 Therefore I will give their wives to other men
and their fields to new owners.(GG)
From the least to the greatest,
all are greedy for gain;(GH)
prophets(GI) and priests alike,
all practice deceit.(GJ)
11 They dress the wound of my people
as though it were not serious.
“Peace, peace,” they say,
when there is no peace.(GK)
12 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct?
No, they have no shame(GL) at all;
they do not even know how to blush.
So they will fall among the fallen;
they will be brought down when they are punished,(GM)
says the Lord.(GN)
13 “‘I will take away their harvest,
declares the Lord.
There will be no grapes on the vine.(GO)
There will be no figs(GP) on the tree,
and their leaves will wither.(GQ)
What I have given them
will be taken(GR) from them.[c]’”
14 Why are we sitting here?
Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities(GS)
and perish there!
For the Lord our God has doomed us to perish
and given us poisoned water(GT) to drink,
because we have sinned(GU) against him.
15 We hoped for peace(GV)
but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(GW)
16 The snorting of the enemy’s horses(GX)
is heard from Dan;(GY)
at the neighing of their stallions
the whole land trembles.(GZ)
They have come to devour(HA)
the land and everything in it,
the city and all who live there.
17 “See, I will send venomous snakes(HB) among you,
vipers that cannot be charmed,(HC)
and they will bite you,”
declares the Lord.
18 You who are my Comforter[d] in sorrow,
my heart is faint(HD) within me.
19 Listen to the cry of my people
from a land far away:(HE)
“Is the Lord not in Zion?
Is her King(HF) no longer there?”
20 “The harvest is past,
the summer has ended,
and we are not saved.”
