弥迦书 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
1 犹大王约坦、亚哈斯和希西迦执政期间，耶和华把祂的话传给了摩利沙人弥迦。他看到了有关撒玛利亚和耶路撒冷的异象。
审判将临
2 万民啊，
你们都要听！
大地和地上的万物啊，
你们要侧耳倾听！
主耶和华从祂的圣殿里作证指控你们。
3 看啊，耶和华离开祂的居所，
从天降临，
脚踏大地的高处。
4 群山在祂脚下熔化，
犹如火中的蜡；
山谷崩裂，
岩石如水沿山坡倾泻。
5 这一切都是因为雅各的叛逆，
以色列家的罪恶。
雅各的叛逆在哪里呢？
岂不是在撒玛利亚吗？
犹大的丘坛在哪里呢？
岂不是在耶路撒冷吗？
6 “所以，我耶和华要使撒玛利亚沦为荒野的废墟，
成为种葡萄的地方。
我要把她的石头抛进山谷，
直到露出她的根基。
7 她所有的神像都要被打碎，
她所得的淫资都要化为灰烬；
我要毁灭她的一切偶像。
她以淫资得来的偶像，
也要被用作妓女的淫资。”
先知的哀伤
8 为此，我要痛哭哀号，
我要赤身光脚而行，
像豺狼哀嚎，
如鸵鸟悲鸣。
9 因为撒玛利亚的创伤无法救治，
已经祸及犹大，
直逼我百姓的城门，直逼耶路撒冷。
10 不要在迦特宣扬，
也不要哭泣，
要在伯·亚弗拉的灰尘中打滚。
11 沙斐的居民啊，
你们将赤身露体，
被羞辱地掳去。
撒南的居民不敢出城，
伯·以薛在痛哭，
你们已失去它的庇护。
12 玛律的居民痛苦不堪，
渴望得到拯救，
因为耶和华已把灾难降到耶路撒冷的城门。
13 拉吉的居民啊，
用骏马套车逃命吧！
是你们首先唆使锡安城犯罪，
在你们身上看到了以色列的罪恶。
14 去向摩利设·迦特赠送告别礼物吧！
亚革悉人必令以色列诸王受骗上当。
15 玛利沙的居民啊，
我要使征服者到你们那里。
以色列的领袖[a]要躲到亚杜兰。
16 犹大人啊，你们要剃光头发，
为你们所爱的儿女悲伤；
要剃得如秃鹰一样光秃，
因为他们要被掳到远方。

Micah 1
International Standard Version
God’s Coming Judgment
1 This message from the Lord came to Micah[a] of Moresheth during the reigns of[b] the Judean kings Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah concerning the vision he saw about Samaria and Jerusalem:
2 “Listen, people! All of you!
Earth! Pay attention, and all you inhabitants of it!
May the Lord God be a witness against you—
the Lord from his holy Temple.
3 Look here! The Lord is coming from his place!
He will come down
and will trample down the high places[c] throughout the land.
4 The mountains will melt under him
and the valleys will split apart,
like wax in the presence of fire
and like water gushing down a steep incline.
5 All this comes about due to the transgression of Jacob,
and due to the sins of the house of Israel.
What is Jacob’s sin? It’s Samaria, isn’t it?
And what’s Judah’s high place?[d] It’s Jerusalem, isn’t it?
6 “So I will turn Samaria into a mound of dirt in a field,
a place to plant vineyards.
And I will dump her building stones into the valley,
uncovering her foundation.
7 All of her carved images will be crushed to pieces,
all the earnings of her prostitution will be burned up,
and I will destroy all her idols;
because she collected the wages of prostitution,
and to the wages of prostitution they will return.”
The Coming Destruction
8 “Therefore I will cry out and grieve loudly;
I will walk around stripped and naked.
I will cry out like a jackal
and mourn like a company of ostriches.
9 For Samaria’s[e] injury is fatal,
reaching all the way to Judah,
extending even to the gate of my people—to Jerusalem.”
10 “Don’t discuss it in Gath![f]
Don’t cry bitterly in Akim![g]
Roll in the ashes, Beth-leaphrah!
11 Run away, you residents of Shaphir,
displaying your shameful nakedness.
Don’t come out, you residents of Zaanan![h]
Your firm standing will disappear as Beth-ezel mourns.
12 Even though the inhabitants of Maroth long for success,
nevertheless evil descended from the Lord to the gate of Jerusalem.
13 “You inhabitants of Lachish, harness your chariot to your swiftest steed—
the daughter of Zion has begun to sin—
because within you the transgressions of Israel were revealed.
14 Therefore give your gifts to Moresheth-gath;
that is, the houses of Achzib as a deceitful symbol[i] to the kings of Israel.
15 Nevertheless, I will deliver an heir to you, inhabitants of Mareshah—
to Adullam the glory of Israel will come.
16 “Shave your head
and cut off your locks as you mourn your beloved children.
Make yourself bald as an eagle,
because they will go from you into exile!”
