Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
耶利米哀叹耶路撒冷之苦
2 主何竟发怒，使黑云遮蔽锡安城！他将以色列的华美从天扔在地上，在他发怒的日子并不记念自己的脚凳。 2 主吞灭雅各一切的住处，并不顾惜。他发怒倾覆犹大民的保障，使这保障坍倒在地。他辱没这国和其中的首领。 3 他发烈怒把以色列的角全然砍断，在仇敌面前收回右手。他像火焰四围吞灭，将雅各烧毁。 4 他张弓好像仇敌，他站着举起右手如同敌人，将悦人眼目的尽行杀戮。在锡安百姓的帐篷上倒出他的愤怒，像火一样。 5 主如仇敌吞灭以色列和锡安的一切宫殿，拆毁百姓的保障，在犹大民中加增悲伤哭号。 6 他强取自己的帐幕好像是园中的窝棚，毁坏他的聚会之处。耶和华使圣节和安息日在锡安都被忘记，又在怒气的愤恨中藐视君王和祭司。 7 耶和华丢弃自己的祭坛，憎恶自己的圣所，将宫殿的墙垣交付仇敌。他们在耶和华的殿中喧嚷，像在圣会之日一样。 8 耶和华定意拆毁锡安的城墙，他拉了准绳，不将手收回，定要毁灭。他使外郭和城墙都悲哀，一同衰败。 9 锡安的门都陷入地内，主将她的门闩毁坏、折断。她的君王和首领落在没有律法的列国中，她的先知不得见耶和华的异象。 10 锡安城的长老坐在地上默默无声，他们扬起尘土落在头上，腰束麻布。耶路撒冷的处女垂头至地。
11 我眼中流泪，以致失明，我的心肠扰乱，肝胆涂地，都因我众民遭毁灭，又因孩童和吃奶的在城内街上发昏。 12 那时他们在城内街上发昏，好像受伤的，在母亲的怀里将要丧命，对母亲说：“谷、酒在哪里呢？” 13 耶路撒冷的民哪，我可用什么向你证明呢？我可用什么与你相比呢？锡安的民哪，我可拿什么和你比较，好安慰你呢？因为你的裂口大如海，谁能医治你呢？ 14 你的先知为你见虚假和愚昧的异象，并没有显露你的罪孽使你被掳的归回，却为你见虚假的默示和使你被赶出本境的缘故。 15 凡过路的都向你拍掌，他们向耶路撒冷城嗤笑摇头，说：“难道人所称为全美的，称为全地所喜悦的，就是这城吗？” 16 你的仇敌都向你大大张口，他们嗤笑又切齿，说：“我们吞灭她！这真是我们所盼望的日子临到了，我们亲眼看见了！” 17 耶和华成就了他所定的，应验了他古时所命定的。他倾覆了并不顾惜，使你的仇敌向你夸耀，使你敌人的角也被高举。 18 锡安民的心哀求主。锡安的城墙啊，愿你流泪如河，昼夜不息！愿你眼中的瞳人泪流不止！ 19 夜间每逢交更的时候要起来呼喊，在主面前倾心如水。你的孩童在各市口上受饿发昏，你要为他们的性命向主举手祷告。
叹耶和华降罚过重
20 “耶和华啊，求你观看，见你向谁这样行？妇人岂可吃自己所生育手里所摇弄的婴孩吗？祭司和先知岂可在主的圣所中被杀戮吗？ 21 少年人和老年人都在街上躺卧，我的处女和壮丁都倒在刀下。你发怒的日子杀死他们，你杀了并不顾惜。 22 你招聚四围惊吓我的，像在大会的日子招聚人一样。耶和华发怒的日子，无人逃脱，无人存留。我所摇弄所养育的婴孩，仇敌都杀净了。”

耶利米哀歌 2
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶和华惩罚耶路撒冷
2 主的怒气像乌云一样遮盖锡安城[a]，
祂使以色列的荣美从天上坠下。
祂发怒的时候并不顾念自己的脚凳。
2 主毫不留情地毁灭雅各一切的住处，
祂在烈怒中夷平犹大的堡垒，
让以色列及其首领蒙羞。
3 祂发烈怒毁灭以色列全军。
敌人袭来时，祂收回大能的手。
祂像烈焰一样吞噬雅各。
4 祂抬起右手张弓搭箭，
宛若仇敌，
杀戮一切悦人眼目的人，
将祂的怒火撒向锡安城的帐篷。
5 主像敌人一样毁灭以色列，
吞噬她的宫殿，夷平她的堡垒，
使犹大人哀哭不止。
6 祂摧毁自己的居所，
如同摧毁花园；
祂摧毁自己规定的聚会之处，
使锡安的人民忘记安息日和节期。
祂在烈怒中弃绝所有的君王和祭司。
7 主撇弃自己的祭坛，
憎恶自己的圣所，
把耶路撒冷的殿墙交给敌人。
他们像过节一样，
在耶和华的殿中喧嚷吵闹。
8 耶和华决意拆毁锡安的城墙，
祂拉了准线，
定意毁灭，决不停止。
祂使城墙和壁垒一同悲哀哭泣。
9 锡安的城门陷入地中，
主摧毁、砍断她的门闩。
她的君王和首领流落异乡，
律法不复存在，
她的先知得不到从耶和华而来的异象。
10 锡安城的长老腰束麻布，
头蒙灰尘，坐在地上，
默然不语；
耶路撒冷的少女垂头至地。
11 我哭得眼睛失明，
心如刀割，肝胆欲碎，
因为人民惨遭毁灭，
儿童和婴孩昏倒在街头。
12 孩子们问母亲：
“哪里有饼和酒呢？”
他们像受伤的勇士，
昏倒在城中的街头，
在母亲怀中奄奄一息。
13 耶路撒冷啊，我该说什么呢？
谁能与你的苦难相比呢？
锡安啊，我用什么话语才能安慰你呢？
你的伤口深如海洋，
谁能医治你呢？
14 你的先知所见的异象虚假无用。
他们没有揭露你的罪恶，
以致你被掳。
他们给你的预言虚假谬误。
15 路人都拍掌嘲笑你。
他们向耶路撒冷城摇头，
嗤笑道：
“这就是那被誉为完美无瑕、
普世喜悦的城吗？”
16 敌人都幸灾乐祸地讥讽你，
他们咬牙切齿地说：
“我们吞灭了她！
这是我们期待已久的日子！
我们终于见到这一天了！”
17 耶和华实现了祂的计划，
成就了祂很久以前的应许。
祂毫不留情地毁灭了你，
使你的仇敌幸灾乐祸，
耀武扬威。
18 锡安的城墙啊，
你要从心里向主呼求！
你的眼泪要像江河一样昼夜涌流，
不歇不眠。
19 你要在夜间起来，
在主面前整夜呼求，
向祂倾心吐意；
你要为饿昏街头的孩童向主举手祷告。
20 “耶和华啊，求你看看，
你曾这样对付过谁呢？
母亲岂能吃自己的孩子？
祭司和先知岂能在主的圣所中被杀？
21 “老人和小孩陈尸街头，
少男少女都丧身刀下。
你在发怒的日子杀了他们，
毫不留情。
22 “你从四面八方召人攻击我，
如同召集人过节。
耶和华发怒的日子，
无人得以逃脱，无人得以幸免。
敌人杀光了我养育的孩子。”
Lamentations 2
King James Version
Lamentations 2
King James Version
2 How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, and cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!
2 The Lord hath swallowed up all the habitations of Jacob, and hath not pitied: he hath thrown down in his wrath the strong holds of the daughter of Judah; he hath brought them down to the ground: he hath polluted the kingdom and the princes thereof.
3 He hath cut off in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy, and he burned against Jacob like a flaming fire, which devoureth round about.
4 He hath bent his bow like an enemy: he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion: he poured out his fury like fire.
5 The Lord was as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel, he hath swallowed up all her palaces: he hath destroyed his strong holds, and hath increased in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
6 And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden: he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: the Lord hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.
7 The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath abhorred his sanctuary, he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces; they have made a noise in the house of the Lord, as in the day of a solemn feast.
8 The Lord hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he hath stretched out a line, he hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying: therefore he made the rampart and the wall to lament; they languished together.
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more; her prophets also find no vision from the Lord.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, and keep silence: they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
11 Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
12 They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swooned as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul was poured out into their mothers' bosom.
13 What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is great like the sea: who can heal thee?
14 Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.
15 All that pass by clap their hands at thee; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, Is this the city that men call The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
16 All thine enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed her up: certainly this is the day that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it.
17 The Lord hath done that which he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old: he hath thrown down, and hath not pitied: and he hath caused thine enemy to rejoice over thee, he hath set up the horn of thine adversaries.
18 Their heart cried unto the Lord, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give thyself no rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
19 Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street.
20 Behold, O Lord, and consider to whom thou hast done this. Shall the women eat their fruit, and children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 The young and the old lie on the ground in the streets: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword; thou hast slain them in the day of thine anger; thou hast killed, and not pitied.
22 Thou hast called as in a solemn day my terrors round about, so that in the day of the Lord's anger none escaped nor remained: those that I have swaddled and brought up hath mine enemy consumed.

God’s Anger with Jerusalem
2 How the Lord has covered the daughter of Zion
With a (A)cloud in His anger!
(B)He cast down from heaven to the earth
(C)The beauty of Israel,
And did not remember (D)His footstool
In the day of His anger.
2 The Lord has swallowed up and has (E)not pitied
All the dwelling places of Jacob.
He has thrown down in His wrath
The strongholds of the daughter of Judah;
He has brought them down to the ground;
(F)He has profaned the kingdom and its princes.
3 He has cut off in fierce anger
Every [a]horn of Israel;
(G)He has drawn back His right hand
From before the enemy.
(H)He has blazed against Jacob like a flaming fire
Devouring all around.
4 (I)Standing like an enemy, He has bent His bow;
With His right hand, like an adversary,
He has slain (J)all who were pleasing to His eye;
On the tent of the daughter of Zion,
He has poured out His fury like fire.
5 (K)The Lord was like an enemy.
He has swallowed up Israel,
He has swallowed up all her palaces;
(L)He has destroyed her strongholds,
And has increased mourning and lamentation
In the daughter of Judah.
6 He has done violence (M)to His [b]tabernacle,
(N)As if it were a garden;
He has destroyed His place of assembly;
The Lord has caused
The appointed feasts and Sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion.
In His burning indignation He has (O)spurned the king and the priest.
7 The Lord has spurned His altar,
He has (P)abandoned His sanctuary;
He has [c]given up the walls of her palaces
Into the hand of the enemy.
(Q)They have made a noise in the house of the Lord
As on the day of a set feast.
8 The Lord has [d]purposed to destroy
The (R)wall of the daughter of Zion.
(S)He has stretched out a line;
He has not withdrawn His hand from destroying;
Therefore He has caused the rampart and wall to lament;
They languished together.
9 Her gates have sunk into the ground;
He has destroyed and (T)broken her bars.
(U)Her king and her princes are among the [e]nations;
(V)The Law is no more,
And her (W)prophets find no [f]vision from the Lord.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion
(X)Sit on the ground and keep silence;
[g]They (Y)throw dust on their heads
And (Z)gird themselves with sackcloth.
The virgins of Jerusalem
Bow their heads to the ground.
11 (AA)My eyes fail with tears,
My [h]heart is troubled;
(AB)My [i]bile is poured on the ground
Because of the destruction of the daughter of my people,
Because (AC)the children and the infants
Faint in the streets of the city.
12 They say to their mothers,
“Where is grain and wine?”
As they swoon like the wounded
In the streets of the city,
As their life is poured out
In their mothers’ bosom.
13 How shall I (AD)console[j] you?
To what shall I liken you,
O daughter of Jerusalem?
What shall I compare with you, that I may comfort you,
O virgin daughter of Zion?
For your ruin is spread wide as the sea;
Who can heal you?
14 Your (AE)prophets have seen for you
False and deceptive visions;
They have not (AF)uncovered your iniquity,
To bring back your captives,
But have envisioned for you false (AG)prophecies and delusions.
15 All who [k]pass by (AH)clap their hands at you;
They hiss (AI)and shake their heads
At the daughter of Jerusalem:
“Is this the city that is called
(AJ)‘The perfection of beauty,
The joy of the whole earth’?”
16 (AK)All your enemies have opened their mouth against you;
They hiss and gnash their teeth.
They say, (AL)“We have swallowed her up!
Surely this is the (AM)day we have waited for;
We have found it, (AN)we have seen it!”
17 The Lord has done what He (AO)purposed;
He has fulfilled His word
Which He commanded in days of old.
He has thrown down and has not pitied,
And He has caused an enemy to (AP)rejoice over you;
He has exalted the [l]horn of your adversaries.
18 Their heart cried out to the Lord,
“O wall of the daughter of Zion,
(AQ)Let tears run down like a river day and night;
Give yourself no relief;
Give [m]your eyes no rest.
19 “Arise, (AR)cry out in the night,
At the beginning of the watches;
(AS)Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord.
Lift your hands toward Him
For the life of your young children,
Who faint from hunger (AT)at the head of every street.”
20 “See, O Lord, and consider!
To whom have You done this?
(AU)Should the women eat their offspring,
The children [n]they have cuddled?
Should the priest and prophet be slain
In the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 “Young(AV) and old lie
On the ground in the streets;
My virgins and my young men
Have fallen by the (AW)sword;
You have slain them in the day of Your anger,
You have slaughtered and not pitied.
22 “You have invited as to a feast day
(AX)The terrors that surround me.
In the day of the Lord’s anger
There was no refugee or survivor.
(AY)Those whom I have borne and brought up
My enemies have (AZ)destroyed.”

2 [a]How the Lord has covered Daughter Zion
with the cloud of his anger[b]!(A)
He has hurled down the splendor of Israel
from heaven to earth;
he has not remembered his footstool(B)
in the day of his anger.(C)
2 Without pity(D) the Lord has swallowed(E) up
all the dwellings of Jacob;
in his wrath he has torn down
the strongholds(F) of Daughter Judah.
He has brought her kingdom and its princes
down to the ground(G) in dishonor.
3 In fierce anger he has cut off
every horn[c][d](H) of Israel.
He has withdrawn his right hand(I)
at the approach of the enemy.
He has burned in Jacob like a flaming fire
that consumes everything around it.(J)
4 Like an enemy he has strung his bow;(K)
his right hand is ready.
Like a foe he has slain
all who were pleasing to the eye;(L)
he has poured out his wrath(M) like fire(N)
on the tent(O) of Daughter Zion.
5 The Lord is like an enemy;(P)
he has swallowed up Israel.
He has swallowed up all her palaces
and destroyed her strongholds.(Q)
He has multiplied mourning and lamentation(R)
for Daughter Judah.(S)
6 He has laid waste his dwelling like a garden;
he has destroyed(T) his place of meeting.(U)
The Lord has made Zion forget
her appointed festivals and her Sabbaths;(V)
in his fierce anger he has spurned
both king and priest.(W)
7 The Lord has rejected his altar
and abandoned his sanctuary.(X)
He has given the walls of her palaces(Y)
into the hands of the enemy;
they have raised a shout in the house of the Lord
as on the day of an appointed festival.(Z)
8 The Lord determined to tear down
the wall around Daughter Zion.(AA)
He stretched out a measuring line(AB)
and did not withhold his hand from destroying.
He made ramparts(AC) and walls lament;
together they wasted away.(AD)
9 Her gates(AE) have sunk into the ground;
their bars(AF) he has broken and destroyed.
Her king and her princes are exiled(AG) among the nations,
the law(AH) is no more,
and her prophets(AI) no longer find
visions(AJ) from the Lord.
10 The elders of Daughter Zion
sit on the ground in silence;(AK)
they have sprinkled dust(AL) on their heads(AM)
and put on sackcloth.(AN)
The young women of Jerusalem
have bowed their heads to the ground.(AO)
11 My eyes fail from weeping,(AP)
I am in torment within(AQ);
my heart(AR) is poured out(AS) on the ground
because my people are destroyed,(AT)
because children and infants faint(AU)
in the streets of the city.
12 They say to their mothers,
“Where is bread and wine?”(AV)
as they faint like the wounded
in the streets of the city,
as their lives ebb away(AW)
in their mothers’ arms.(AX)
13 What can I say for you?(AY)
With what can I compare you,
Daughter(AZ) Jerusalem?
To what can I liken you,
that I may comfort you,
Virgin Daughter Zion?(BA)
Your wound is as deep as the sea.(BB)
Who can heal you?
14 The visions of your prophets
were false(BC) and worthless;
they did not expose your sin
to ward off your captivity.(BD)
The prophecies they gave you
were false and misleading.(BE)
15 All who pass your way
clap their hands at you;(BF)
they scoff(BG) and shake their heads(BH)
at Daughter Jerusalem:(BI)
“Is this the city that was called
the perfection of beauty,(BJ)
the joy of the whole earth?”(BK)
16 All your enemies open their mouths
wide against you;(BL)
they scoff and gnash their teeth(BM)
and say, “We have swallowed her up.(BN)
This is the day we have waited for;
we have lived to see it.”(BO)
17 The Lord has done what he planned;
he has fulfilled(BP) his word,
which he decreed long ago.(BQ)
He has overthrown you without pity,(BR)
he has let the enemy gloat over you,(BS)
he has exalted the horn[e] of your foes.(BT)
18 The hearts of the people
cry out to the Lord.(BU)
You walls of Daughter Zion,(BV)
let your tears(BW) flow like a river
day and night;(BX)
give yourself no relief,
your eyes no rest.(BY)

as the watches of the night begin;
pour out your heart(BZ) like water
in the presence of the Lord.(CA)
Lift up your hands(CB) to him
for the lives of your children,
who faint(CC) from hunger
at every street corner.
20 “Look, Lord, and consider:
Whom have you ever treated like this?
Should women eat their offspring,(CD)
the children they have cared for?(CE)
Should priest and prophet be killed(CF)
in the sanctuary of the Lord?(CG)
