玛拉基书 2
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
祭司违命背约
2 祭司啊！现在这命令是给你们的。 2 万军之耶和华说：“你们若不听从，若不放在心上，不把荣耀归给我的名，我就使咒诅临到你们中间，我要咒诅你们应得的福分，并且已经咒诅了，因为你们没有把这命令放在心上。 3 我要斥责你们的子孙，也要把粪涂抹在你们的脸上，就是节期祭牲的粪；人要把你们抬到粪堆去。” 4 万军之耶和华说：“这样，你们就知道是我把这命令给你们，使我与利未所立的约得以存留。 5 我与他所立的是生命和平安的约，也把这些赐给了他。我要使他敬畏我，又畏惧我的名。 6 在他的口中有真理的教训，在他的嘴里也没有不义；他以平安和正直与我同行，使许多人回头离开罪孽。” 7 祭司的嘴当保存知识，人要从他的口中寻求教训，因为他是万军耶和华的使者。 8 万军之耶和华说：“你们却偏离了正路，使许多人在律法上跌倒；你们也破坏了我与利未所立的约。 9 因此，我也使你们在众人面前被藐视、受轻看，因为你们不遵守我的道，在律法上徇人的情面。”
犹大人不忠不贞
10 我们不是同有一位父吗？不是同一位 神创造我们吗？为甚么我们各人对自己的兄弟不忠，亵渎我们列祖的约呢？ 11 犹大人行了诡诈，在以色列和耶路撒冷中作了可憎的事；因为犹大人亵渎耶和华所爱的圣所，娶了事奉外族神的女子为妻。 12 行这事的，无论是主动的，或是附从的（“无论是主动的，或是附从的”直译作“叫醒的、答应的”），连那献礼物给万军耶和华的，耶和华必把那人从雅各的帐棚中除掉。 13 你们又行了这事：使眼泪、哀哭和呻吟盖满了耶和华的坛，因为耶和华不再垂看礼物，也不喜悦从你们手中收纳。 14 你们还问：“为甚么呢？”因为耶和华在你和你年轻时所娶的妻子中间作证；她是你的伴侣，是你立约的妻子，你竟对她不忠！ 15 神所作的不是一个吗？其余的气息都是属于他的。那一个寻求甚么呢？就是 神的子孙。（本节原文意思不确定）所以要谨守你们的灵性，不可对年轻时所娶的妻子不忠。 16 耶和华以色列的 神说：“我恨恶休妻和以强暴待妻子。”万军之耶和华说：“所以要谨守你们的灵性，不可行诡诈的事。”
17 你们用自己的言语使耶和华厌烦，你们还说：“我们怎样使他厌烦呢？”因为你们说：“作恶的，耶和华都看为善，并且喜悦他们。”或说：“公义的 神在哪里呢？”
瑪拉基書 2
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
2 祭司們啊，這誡命是傳給你們的。 2 萬軍之耶和華說：「如果你們不聽從我的話，也不從內心尊崇我的名，我必使咒詛臨到你們，把你們的福氣變成咒詛。事實上，因為你們不把我的誡命放在心上，我已經咒詛了你們。 3 我必斥責你們的子孫，把你們祭牲的糞便抹在你們臉上，又把你們和糞便一同丟掉， 4 你們便知道我這樣告誡你們，是為了維持我與你們祖先利未所立的約。這是萬軍之耶和華說的。 5 我與他所立的是生命和平安之約，我將生命和平安賜給他，使他心存敬畏。他就尊崇我，敬畏我的名。 6 他口中教導真理，嘴裡毫無詭詐。他與我同行，過著平安正直的生活，並引導許多人遠離罪惡。 7 祭司的嘴唇應持守知識，人民應從他口中尋求訓誨，因為他是萬軍之耶和華的使者。 8 然而，你們卻偏離正道，你們的教導使許多人跌倒，破壞了我和利未所立的約。」這是萬軍之耶和華說的。 9 「因此，我必使你們在眾人面前遭藐視、輕賤。因為你們不遵守我的道，在教導上偏心待人。」
10 難道我們不是出於同一位父親，由同一位上帝所造嗎？為何我們竟彼此欺騙，背棄上帝與我們祖先所立的約呢？ 11 猶大人不忠貞，在以色列和耶路撒冷做了可憎的事，他們娶信奉外邦神明的女子為妻，褻瀆了耶和華所愛的聖所。 12 願耶和華從雅各的帳篷中剷除所有做這事並獻供物給萬軍之耶和華的人！
13 另外，你們哀哭悲歎，眼淚甚至淹沒了耶和華的祭壇，因為耶和華不再理會你們的供物，不再悅納你們所獻的。 14 你們還問為什麼。因為耶和華在你和你的髮妻中間作證，她是你的配偶，是你盟約的妻子，你卻對她不忠。 15 上帝不是把你們結合為一體，叫你們肉體和心靈都歸祂嗎[a]？祂為何這樣做？是為了得敬虔的後裔。所以，你們要小心謹慎，不可對自己的髮妻不忠。 16 以色列的上帝耶和華說：「我憎惡休妻和以暴虐待妻子的人。所以要守護你們的心，不可有不忠的行為。」這是萬軍之耶和華說的。 17 你們說的話使耶和華厭煩，然而，你們還說：「我們在何事上令祂厭煩呢？」因為你們說：「耶和華將所有作惡者視為好人，並且喜悅他們」，還說：「公義的上帝在哪裡？」

Malachi 2
Young's Literal Translation
2 And now, to you [is] this charge, O priests,
2 If ye hearken not, and if ye lay [it] not to heart, To give honour to My name, said Jehovah of Hosts, I have sent against you the curse, And I have cursed your blessings, Yea, I have also cursed it, Because ye are not laying [it] to heart.
3 Lo, I am pushing away before you the seed, And have scattered dung before your faces, Dung of your festivals, And it hath taken you away with it.
4 And ye have known that I have sent unto you this charge, For My covenant being with Levi, Said Jehovah of Hosts.
5 My covenant hath been with him of life and of peace, And I make them to him a fear, and he doth fear Me, And because of My name he hath been affrighted.
6 The law of truth hath been in his mouth, And perverseness hath not been found in his lips, In peace and in uprightness he walked with Me, And many he brought back from iniquity.
7 For the lips of a priest preserve knowledge, And law they do seek from his mouth, For a messenger of Jehovah of Hosts he [is].
8 And ye, ye have turned from the way, Ye have caused many to stumble in the law, Ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, Said Jehovah of Hosts.
9 And I also, I have made you despised and low before all the people, Because ye are not keeping My ways, And are accepting persons in the law.
10 Have we not all one father? Hath not our God prepared us? Wherefore do we deal treacherously, Each against his brother, To pollute the covenant of our fathers?
11 Dealt treacherously hath Judah, And abomination hath been done in Israel, and in Jerusalem, For polluted hath Judah the holy thing of Jehovah, That He hath loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.
12 Cut off doth Jehovah the man who doth it, Tempter and tempted -- from the tents of Jacob, Even he who is bringing nigh a present to Jehovah of Hosts.
13 And this a second time ye do, Covering with tears the altar of Jehovah, With weeping and groaning, Because there is no more turning unto the present, Or receiving of a pleasing thing from your hand.
14 And ye have said, `Wherefore?' Because Jehovah hath testified between thee And the wife of thy youth, That thou hast dealt treacherously against her, And she thy companion, and thy covenant-wife.
15 And He did not make one [only], And He hath the remnant of the Spirit. And what [is] the one [alone]! He is seeking a godly seed. And ye have been watchful over your spirit, And with the wife of thy youth, None doth deal treacherously.
16 For [I] hate sending away, said Jehovah, God of Israel, And He [who] hath covered violence with his clothing, said Jehovah of Hosts, And ye have been watchful over your spirit, And ye do not deal treacherously.
17 Ye have wearied Jehovah with your words, And ye have said: `In what have we wearied Him?' In your saying: `Every evil-doer [is] good in the eyes of Jehovah, And in them He is delighting,' Or, `Where [is] the God of judgment?'
