弥迦书 3
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
指摘官长与领袖
3 我说：
“雅各的首领，你们要听，
以色列家的官长，你们也要听；
难道你们不知道公平吗？
2 然而，你们恨恶良善，喜爱邪恶，
从人身上剥皮，
从人骨头上剔肉。
3 你们吃我民的肉，
剥他们的皮，
打断他们的骨头，
切成像锅里的块，
像釜中的肉块。
4 那时，他们要向耶和华呼求，
耶和华却不应允他们。
到那时，耶和华必掩面不顾他们，
因为他们行了恶事。”
责备假先知
5 关于那些使我民走迷路的先知，
耶和华这样说：
“他们的牙齿有所咀嚼的时候，
就大叫‘平安’；
谁不把食物给他们吃，
他们就攻击那人。”
6 因此你们只有黑夜，没有异象，
只有黑暗，没有默示。
对先知，日头要下落，
为他们，白日变为黑暗。
7 先见必抱愧，
得默示的人要蒙羞；
他们都必掩着上唇，
因为没有 神的答复。
8 至于我，我却借着耶和华的灵，
满有力量、公平和能力，
可以向雅各述说他的过犯，
向以色列指出他的罪恶。
恶有恶报─圣城被毁
9 雅各家的首领，你们要听这个，
以色列家的官长，你们也要听；
你们厌恶公平，
屈枉正直，
10 用人血建锡安，
以罪孽造耶路撒冷。
11 城中的首领为贿赂而审判，
祭司为薪俸而教导，
先知为银子说默示，
他们竟倚靠耶和华，说：
“耶和华不是在我们中间吗？
灾祸必不会临到我们身上。”
12 所以，为你们的缘故，
锡安必像被耕种的田地，
耶路撒冷必变为乱堆，
这殿的山要成为丛林中的高冈。
Micah 3
King James Version
3 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel; Is it not for you to know judgment?
2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
4 Then shall they cry unto the Lord, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.
5 Thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him.
6 Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
7 Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yea, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer of God.
8 But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the Lord, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.
9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity.
10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the Lord, and say, Is not the Lord among us? none evil can come upon us.
12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest.
Micah 3
New Century Version
The Leaders of Israel Are Guilty of Evil
3 Then I said,
“Listen, leaders of the people of Jacob;
listen, you rulers of the nation of Israel.
You should know how to decide cases fairly,
2 but you hate good and love evil.
You skin my people alive
and tear the flesh off their bones.
3 You eat my people’s flesh
and skin them and break their bones;
you chop them up like meat for the pot,
like meat in a cooking pan.
4 They will cry to the Lord,
but he won’t answer them.
At that time he will hide his face from them,
because what they have done is evil.”
5 The Lord says this about the prophets who teach his people the wrong way of living:
“If these prophets are given food to eat,
they shout, ‘Peace!’
But if someone doesn’t give them what they ask for,
they call for a holy war against that person.
6 So it will become like night for them, without visions.
It will become dark for them, without any way to tell the future.
The sun is about to set for the prophets;
their day will become dark.
7 The seers will be ashamed;
the people who see the future will be embarrassed.
Yes, all of them will cover their mouths,
because there will be no answer from God.”
Micah Is an Honest Prophet of God
8 But I am filled with power,
with the Spirit of the Lord,
and with justice and strength,
to tell the people of Jacob how they have turned against God,
and the people of Israel how they have sinned.
9 Leaders of Jacob and rulers of Israel,
listen to me,
you who hate fairness
and twist what is right.
10 You build Jerusalem by murdering people;
you build it with evil.
11 Its judges take money
to decide who wins in court.
Its priests only teach for pay,
and its prophets only look into the future when they get paid.
But they lean on the Lord and say,
“The Lord is here with us,
so nothing bad will happen to us.”
12 Because of you,
Jerusalem will be plowed like a field.
The city will become a pile of rocks,
and the hill on which the Temple stands will be covered with bushes.
