耶利米哀歌 3
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
耶利米自叹遭主愤怒
3 我是因耶和华愤怒的杖遭遇困苦的人。 2 他引导我，使我行在黑暗中，不行在光明里。 3 他真是终日再三反手攻击我。 4 他使我的皮肉枯干，他折断[a]我的骨头。 5 他筑垒攻击我，用苦楚[b]和艰难围困我。 6 他使我住在幽暗之处，像死了许久的人一样。 7 他用篱笆围住我，使我不能出去，他使我的铜链沉重。 8 我哀号求救，他使我的祷告不得上达。 9 他用凿过的石头挡住我的道，他使我的路弯曲。 10 他向我如熊埋伏，如狮子在隐密处。 11 他使我转离正路，将我撕碎，使我凄凉。 12 他张弓将我当做箭靶子。 13 他把箭袋中的箭射入我的肺腑。 14 我成了众民的笑话，他们终日以我为歌曲。 15 他用苦楚充满我，使我饱用茵陈。 16 他又用沙石碜断我的牙，用灰尘将我蒙蔽。 17 你使我远离平安，我忘记好处。 18 我就说：“我的力量衰败，我在耶和华那里毫无指望。”
追忆主恩不致灭没
19 耶和华啊，求你记念我如茵陈和苦胆的困苦窘迫！ 20 我心想念这些，就在里面忧闷。 21 我想起这事，心里就有指望。 22 我们不致消灭，是出于耶和华诸般的慈爱，是因他的怜悯不至断绝。 23 每早晨这都是新的，你的诚实极其广大。 24 我心里说：“耶和华是我的份，因此我要仰望他。” 25 凡等候耶和华，心里寻求他的，耶和华必施恩给他。
仰望救恩静候为美
26 人仰望耶和华，静默等候他的救恩，这原是好的。 27 人在幼年负轭，这原是好的。 28 他当独坐无言，因为这是耶和华加在他身上的。 29 他当口贴尘埃，或者有指望。 30 他当由人打他的腮颊，要满受凌辱。 31 因为主必不永远丢弃人。 32 主虽使人忧愁，还要照他诸般的慈爱发怜悯。 33 因他并不甘心使人受苦，使人忧愁。 34 人将世上被囚的踹[c]在脚下， 35 或在至高者面前屈枉人， 36 或在人的讼事上颠倒是非，这都是主看不上的。 37 除非主命定，谁能说成就成呢？ 38 祸福不都出于至高者的口吗？ 39 活人因自己的罪受罚，为何发怨言呢？
40 我们当深深考察自己的行为，再归向耶和华。 41 我们当诚心向天上的神举手祷告： 42 “我们犯罪悖逆，你并不赦免。 43 你自被怒气遮蔽，追赶我们；你施行杀戮，并不顾惜。 44 你以黑云遮蔽自己，以致祷告不得透入。 45 你使我们在万民中成为污秽和渣滓。 46 我们的仇敌都向我们大大张口。 47 恐惧和陷坑，残害和毁灭都临近我们。” 48 因我众民遭的毁灭，我就眼泪下流如河。 49 我的眼多多流泪，总不止息， 50 直等耶和华垂顾，从天观看。 51 因我本城的众民，我的眼使我的心伤痛。 52 无故与我为仇的追逼我，像追雀鸟一样。 53 他们使我的命在牢狱中断绝，并将一块石头抛在我身上。 54 众水流过我头，我说：“我命断绝了！”
求主解救
55 耶和华啊，我从深牢中求告你的名。 56 你曾听见我的声音：“我求你解救，你不要掩耳不听！” 57 我求告你的日子，你临近我，说：“不要惧怕！” 58 主啊，你申明了我的冤，你救赎了我的命。 59 耶和华啊，你见了我受的委屈，求你为我申冤。 60 他们仇恨我，谋害我，你都看见了。 61 耶和华啊，你听见他们辱骂我的话，知道他们向我所设的计， 62 并那些起来攻击我的人口中所说的话，以及终日向我所设的计谋。 63 求你观看，他们坐下、起来，都以我为歌曲。
求主施报于敌
64 耶和华啊，你要按着他们手所做的向他们施行报应。 65 你要使他们心里刚硬，使你的咒诅临到他们。 66 你要发怒追赶他们，从耶和华的天下除灭他们。

Lamentations 3
Complete Jewish Bible
3 I am the man who has seen affliction
under the rod of his fury,
2 He has led me and made me walk
in darkness and not in light.
3 Against me alone he turns his hand
again and again, all day.
4 He has worn away my skin and flesh,
he has broken my bones.
5 He has besieged and surrounded me
with bitterness and hardship.
6 He has made me live in darkness,
like those who are long dead.
7 He has walled me in, so I can’t escape;
he has weighed me down with chains.
8 Even when I cry out, pleading for help,
he shuts out my prayer.
9 He has barred my way with blocks of stone,
he has made my paths crooked.
10 He lies in wait for me like a bear,
like a lion in hiding.
11 He has forced me aside and torn me to pieces,
leaving me stunned.
12 He has bent his bow and used me
as a target for his arrows.
13 He has pierced my vital organs
with shafts from his quiver.
14 I’m a laughingstock to all my people,
the butt of their taunts all day long.
15 He has filled me with bitterness,
sated me with wormwood.
16 He has broken my teeth with gravel
and pressed me down into ashes.
17 I have been so deprived of peace,
I have so forgotten what happiness is,
18 that I think, “My strength is gone,
and so is my hope in Adonai.”
19 Remember my utter misery,
the wormwood and the gall.
20 They are always on my mind;
this is why I am so depressed.
21 But in my mind I keep returning to something,
something that gives me hope —
22 that the grace of Adonai is not exhausted,
that his compassion has not ended.
23 [On the contrary,] they are new every morning!
How great your faithfulness!
24 “Adonai is all I have,” I say;
“therefore I will put my hope in him.
25 Adonai is good to those waiting for him,
to those who are seeking him out.
26 It is good to wait patiently
for the saving help of Adonai.
27 It is good for a man
to bear the yoke from his youth.
28 Let him sit alone in silence
when he has laid it on him.
29 Let him submit absolutely;
there may yet be hope.
30 Let him offer his cheek to the one who strikes it,
and receive his fill of insults.
31 For rejection by Adonai
does not last forever.
32 He may cause grief, but he will take pity,
in keeping with the greatness of his grace.
33 For he does not arbitrarily torment
or punish human beings.
34 When anyone tramples underfoot
any of the prisoners of the land;
35 when anyone deprives a person of justice,
in defiance of the Most High;
36 when someone is cheated of justice in court —
does Adonai not take note of such things?
37 Who can say something and have it happen
without Adonai’s commanding it?
38 Don’t both bad things and good proceed
from the mouth of the Most High?
39 Why should anyone alive complain,
even a strong man, about the punishment for his sins?
40 Let us examine and test our ways
and return to Adonai.
41 Let us lift up our hearts and our hands
to God in heaven and say,
42 “We, for our part, have transgressed and rebelled;
you, for your part, have not forgiven.
43 “You have covered us with anger,
pursued and slaughtered us without pity.
44 You have covered yourself with a cloud so thick
that no prayer can pass through.
45 You have reduced us
to rubbish and filth among the peoples.
46 “All our adversaries
open their mouths to jeer at us.
47 Panic and pitfall have come upon us,
desolation and destruction.
48 My eyes stream with rivers of water
over the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
49 My eyes weep ceaselessly;
there is no respite,
50 until Adonai looks down
and sees from heaven.
51 My eyes make me so upset
at the fate of the women in my city.
52 Those who are my enemies for no reason
hunted me down like a bird.
53 They forced me alive into a pit
and threw stones on me.
54 Water rose above my head;
I thought, “I am finished!”
55 I called on your name, Adonai,
from the bottom of the pit.
56 You heard my voice; don’t close your ear
at my sighs, at my cries.
57 You came near when I called to you;
you said, “Don’t be afraid.”
58 Adonai, you defended my cause;
you redeemed my life.
59 Adonai, you see how I have been wronged;
give judgment in my favor!
60 You have seen all their vindictiveness
and all their plots against me.
61 You have heard their taunts, Adonai,
and all their plots against me,
62 the whispered murmurings of my foes
against me all day long.
63 See how, whether they sit or stand,
I am the butt of their taunts.
64 Repay them, Adonai,
as their deeds deserve.
65 Give them hardheartedness
as your curse on them.
66 Pursue them in anger!
Destroy them from under your heavens!
