弥迦书 6
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
責以色列人忘恩犯罪
6 你們當聽耶和華所說的話:
“你要起來,向大山爭辯,
讓小山可以聽見你的聲音。
2 大山啊!你們要聽耶和華的爭辯。
大地永久的根基啊!你們要聽,
因為耶和華與他的子民爭辯,
和以色列爭論。
3 我的子民啊,我向你作了甚麼呢?
我在甚麼事上叫你厭煩呢?
你可以回答我。
4 我曾經把你從埃及地領上來,
把你從為奴之家贖出來;
我也差派了摩西、亞倫和米利暗在你前面行。
5 我的民哪!你們要追念,
摩押王巴勒圖謀過甚麼,
比珥的兒子巴蘭又答應了他甚麼,
以及你們從什亭到吉甲所發生的事,
好使你們知道耶和華公義的作為。”
神要求的不是外表的獻祭
6 我朝見耶和華,
在至高的 神面前叩拜,當獻上甚麼呢?
我朝見他的時候,當獻上燔祭,
當獻上一歲的牛犢嗎?
7 耶和華喜悅千千的公羊,
或是萬萬的油河嗎?
為我的過犯,我可以獻上我的長子嗎?
為我的罪惡,獻上我親生的孩子嗎?
8 世人哪!耶和華已經指示你甚麼是善,
他向你所要的又是甚麼;
無非是要你行公義,好憐憫,
謙虛謹慎與你的 神同行。
詭詐的行為必受懲罰
9 聽啊!耶和華向這城呼叫,
敬畏你的名就是智慧;
支派和城裡的會眾啊!你們要聽。
10 我怎能忘記惡人家中的不義之財,
和那些可咒詛的小升斗呢?
11 用不義的天平,
和袋中詐騙的法碼的人,
我怎能算他為清潔呢?
12 城裡的財主充滿了強暴,
其中的居民也說假話;
他們口中的舌頭是詭詐的。
13 因此我擊打你,使你生病(“我擊打你,使你生病”或參照《七十士譯本》和其他古譯本作“我開始擊打你”),
因你的罪惡,使你荒涼。
14 你要吃,卻吃不飽;
因你的腹中常有疾病。
你要懷孕,卻不能生下來;
你生下來的,
我都要交給刀劍。
15 你要撒種,卻不得收割,
你要榨橄欖油,卻不得油抹身;
你要榨葡萄汁,卻不得酒喝。
16 你跟隨了暗利的規例
和亞哈家一切所行的,
順從了他們的計謀;
因此,我必使你荒涼,
使你(“你”原文作“她”)的居民被嗤笑;
你們也必擔當我民的羞辱。

6 Écoutez donc ce que dit l'Éternel: Lève-toi, plaide devant les montagnes, Et que les collines entendent ta voix!...
2 Écoutez, montagnes, le procès de l'Éternel, Et vous, solides fondements de la terre! Car l'Éternel a un procès avec son peuple, Il veut plaider avec Israël. -
3 Mon peuple, que t'ai-je fait? En quoi t'ai-je fatigué? Réponds-moi!
4 Car je t'ai fait monter du pays d'Égypte, Je t'ai délivré de la maison de servitude, Et j'ai envoyé devant toi Moïse, Aaron et Marie.
5 Mon peuple, rappelle-toi ce que projetait Balak, roi de Moab, Et ce que lui répondit Balaam, fils de Beor, De Sittim à Guilgal, Afin que tu reconnaisses les bienfaits de l'Éternel.
6 Avec quoi me présenterai-je devant l'Éternel, Pour m'humilier devant le Dieu Très Haut? Me présenterai-je avec des holocaustes, Avec des veaux d'un an?
7 L'Éternel agréera-t-il des milliers de béliers, Des myriades de torrents d'huile? Donnerai-je pour mes transgressions mon premier-né, Pour le péché de mon âme le fruit de mes entrailles? -
8 On t'a fait connaître, ô homme, ce qui est bien; Et ce que l'Éternel demande de toi, C'est que tu pratiques la justice, Que tu aimes la miséricorde, Et que tu marches humblement avec ton Dieu.
9 La voix de l'Éternel crie à la ville, Et celui qui est sage craindra ton nom. Entendez la verge et celui qui l'envoie!
10 Y a-t-il encore dans la maison du méchant Des trésors iniques, Et un épha trop petit, objet de malédiction?
11 Est-on pur avec des balances fausses, Et avec de faux poids dans le sac?
12 Ses riches sont pleins de violence, Ses habitants profèrent le mensonge, Et leur langue n'est que tromperie dans leur bouche.
13 C'est pourquoi je te frapperai par la souffrance, Je te ravagerai à cause de tes péchés.
14 Tu mangeras sans te rassasier, Et la faim sera au dedans de toi; Tu mettras en réserve et tu ne sauveras pas, Et ce que tu sauveras, je le livrerai à l'épée.
15 Tu sèmeras, et tu ne moissonneras pas, Tu presseras l'olive, et tu ne feras pas d'onctions avec l'huile, Tu presseras le moût, et tu ne boiras pas le vin.
16 On observe les coutumes d'Omri Et toute la manière d'agir de la maison d'Achab, Et vous marchez d'après leurs conseils; C'est pourquoi je te livrerai à la destruction, Je ferai de tes habitants un sujet de raillerie, Et vous porterez l'opprobre de mon peuple.
Micah 6
New International Version
The Lord’s Case Against Israel
6 Listen to what the Lord says:
“Stand up, plead my case before the mountains;(A)
let the hills hear what you have to say.
2 “Hear,(B) you mountains, the Lord’s accusation;(C)
listen, you everlasting foundations of the earth.
For the Lord has a case(D) against his people;
he is lodging a charge(E) against Israel.
3 “My people, what have I done to you?
How have I burdened(F) you?(G) Answer me.
4 I brought you up out of Egypt(H)
and redeemed you from the land of slavery.(I)
I sent Moses(J) to lead you,
also Aaron(K) and Miriam.(L)
5 My people, remember
what Balak(M) king of Moab plotted
and what Balaam son of Beor answered.
Remember your journey from Shittim(N) to Gilgal,(O)
that you may know the righteous acts(P) of the Lord.”
6 With what shall I come before(Q) the Lord
and bow down before the exalted God?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
with calves a year old?(R)
7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,(S)
with ten thousand rivers of olive oil?(T)
Shall I offer my firstborn(U) for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?(V)
8 He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly(W) and to love mercy
and to walk humbly[a](X) with your God.(Y)
Israel’s Guilt and Punishment
9 Listen! The Lord is calling to the city—
and to fear your name is wisdom—
“Heed the rod(Z) and the One who appointed it.[b]
10 Am I still to forget your ill-gotten treasures, you wicked house,
and the short ephah,[c] which is accursed?(AA)
11 Shall I acquit someone with dishonest scales,(AB)
with a bag of false weights?(AC)
12 Your rich people are violent;(AD)
your inhabitants are liars(AE)
and their tongues speak deceitfully.(AF)
13 Therefore, I have begun to destroy(AG) you,
to ruin[d] you because of your sins.
14 You will eat but not be satisfied;(AH)
your stomach will still be empty.[e]
You will store up but save nothing,(AI)
because what you save[f] I will give to the sword.
15 You will plant but not harvest;(AJ)
you will press olives but not use the oil,
you will crush grapes but not drink the wine.(AK)
16 You have observed the statutes of Omri(AL)
and all the practices of Ahab’s(AM) house;
you have followed their traditions.(AN)
Therefore I will give you over to ruin(AO)
and your people to derision;
you will bear the scorn(AP) of the nations.[g]”

New King James Version
God Pleads with Israel
6 Hear now what the Lord says:
“Arise, plead your case before the mountains,
And let the hills hear your voice.
2 (A)Hear, O you mountains, (B)the Lord’s complaint,
And you strong foundations of the earth;
For (C)the Lord has a complaint against His people,
And He will [a]contend with Israel.
3 “O My people, what (D)have I done to you?
And how have I (E)wearied you?
Testify against Me.
4 (F)For I brought you up from the land of Egypt,
I redeemed you from the house of bondage;
And I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
5 O My people, remember now
What (G)Balak king of Moab counseled,
And what Balaam the son of Beor answered him,
From [b]Acacia Grove to Gilgal,
That you may know (H)the righteousness of the Lord.”
6 With what shall I come before the Lord,
And bow myself before the High God?
Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings,
With calves a year old?
7 (I)Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,
Ten thousand (J)rivers of oil?
(K)Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression,
[c]The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
8 He has (L)shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you
But (M)to do justly,
To love [d]mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?
Punishment of Israel’s Injustice
9 The Lord’s voice cries to the city—
Wisdom shall see Your name:
“Hear the rod!
Who has appointed it?
10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness
In the house of the wicked,
And the short measure that is an abomination?
11 Shall I count pure those with (N)the wicked scales,
And with the bag of deceitful weights?
12 For her rich men are full of (O)violence,
Her inhabitants have spoken lies,
And (P)their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
13 “Therefore I will also (Q)make you sick by striking you,
By making you desolate because of your sins.
14 (R)You shall eat, but not be satisfied;
[e]Hunger shall be in your midst.
You may carry some away,[f] but shall not save them;
And what you do rescue I will give over to the sword.
15 “You shall (S)sow, but not reap;
You shall tread the olives, but not anoint yourselves with oil;
And make sweet wine, but not drink wine.
16 For the statutes of (T)Omri are (U)kept;
All the works of Ahab’s house are done;
And you walk in their counsels,
That I may make you a [g]desolation,
And your inhabitants a hissing.
Therefore you shall bear the (V)reproach of [h]My people.”
