申命記 32
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
摩西之歌
32 「諸天啊,請留心聽;
大地啊,請聽我說。
2 願我的教導如雨降下,
願我的話語如露滴落,
像水滴滋潤嫩草,
像甘霖澆灌草木。
3 我要宣揚耶和華的名,
你們要頌讚我們上帝的偉大。
4 「祂是磐石,
祂的作為完美,
祂按公義行事,
祂信實可靠,公平正直。
5 狡詐、墮落的一代啊,
你們卻對祂不忠,行事敗壞,
不配做祂的兒女。
6 愚昧無知的人啊,
你們就這樣報答耶和華嗎?
祂是你們的父,你們的創造主,
祂創造了你們,塑造了你們。
7 「要回顧往昔,追溯歷史;
問你們的父親,
他們必回答你們;
問你們的長者,
他們必告訴你們。
8 當初,至高者賜萬國產業,
把人類分開,
祂依照天使[a]的數目,
為萬族定疆界。
9 但以色列人屬於耶和華,
雅各是祂的產業。
10 「在荒涼的曠野,
在野獸吼叫的荒野,
耶和華找到他們,
庇護他們,看顧他們,
保護他們如同保護眼中的瞳人,
11 又如老鷹攪動窩巢,
盤旋在雛鷹之上,展開雙翼,
背著雛鷹飛翔。
12 耶和華獨自帶領他們,
身邊沒有外族神明。
13 耶和華使他們馳騁在大地的高處,
吃田間的五穀,
磐石中的蜂蜜,
石頭地產的油;
14 吃牛酪和羊奶,
肥美的羔羊,
巴珊的綿羊和山羊,
上好的麥子;
喝葡萄汁釀的酒。
15 「但耶書崙[b]吃飽喝足,
養肥長壯後,就得意忘形,
背棄造他們的上帝,
藐視救他們的磐石。
16 他們拜外族的神明,令祂憤恨;
行可憎之事,惹祂發怒。
17 他們祭拜的不是真神,
而是鬼魔,
是他們素不認識的新神明,
是他們祖先所不敬畏的。
18 他們輕視生他們的磐石,
忘記養他們的上帝。
19 「耶和華看見祂兒女的惡行,
就憤然厭棄他們,
20 說,『這墮落的子民,
不忠的兒女!
我要掩面不理他們,
看他們的結局如何。
21 他們拜假神,讓我憤恨;
供虛無之物,惹我發怒。
我要藉無名之民挑起他們的嫉妒,
用愚昧的國民激起他們的怒氣。
22 我的怒火已經點燃,
要燒到陰間的盡頭,
吞滅大地及其出產,
甚至燒毀山的根基。
23 『我要使災禍連連臨到他們,
我的箭都射向他們。
24 他們必飽受饑荒之苦,
被瘟疫和災禍吞噬,
被猛獸和毒蛇襲擊。
25 外有刀劍殺戮,
內有恐懼籠罩,
少男、少女、嬰兒、
老人無一倖免。
26 我本要消滅他們,
使世人忘記他們;
27 但我不願讓敵人誇口,
宣稱這是他們的勝利,
而非我的作為。』
28 「以色列人愚昧無知,毫無見識。
29 如果他們有智慧,
就能明白這一切、
知道自己的結局。
30 若不是他們的磐石賣掉他們,
若不是耶和華拋棄他們,
一人怎能趕散他們千人?
二人怎能擊潰他們萬人?
31 我們的敵人也承認他們的磐石不如我們的磐石。
32 他們猶如來自所多瑪、
長在蛾摩拉的葡萄樹,
結的葡萄粒粒有毒,串串苦澀;
33 釀的酒如蛇的毒液,
如眼鏡蛇的毒液。
34 「祂說,『我把這一切積存起來,
封在我的倉庫裡。
35 伸冤在我,我必報應,
到時候他們必站不住腳,
他們遭禍的日子近了,
他們的末日來了。』
36 「耶和華見自己的子民力量衰竭,
奴隸和自由人所剩無幾,
必為他們主持公道,
憐憫祂的僕人。
37 祂必說,『你們的神明在哪裡?
庇護你們的磐石在哪裡?
38 它們吃你們祭牲的脂肪,
喝你們的奠酒。
讓它們起來幫助你們,
庇護你們吧!
39 『你們要知道,
唯有我是上帝;
除我之外,別無他神。
我掌管生死,我打傷、我醫治;
無人能逃出我的掌心。
40 我向天伸手,
憑我的永恆起誓,
41 我要磨快閃亮的劍,
主持公道,報應仇敵,
懲罰恨我的人。
42 我要使我的箭飽飲鮮血,
被殺被擄之人的血;
我的劍要吞噬人肉,
敵人將領的肉。』
43 「列邦啊,
你們當與祂的子民一同歡樂!
因為祂要為自己的僕人報血仇,
報應祂的仇敵,
潔淨祂的土地和子民。」
44 摩西和嫩的兒子約書亞把這首詩歌讀給會眾聽。
摩西的遺囑
45 讀完後,摩西又對以色列人說: 46 「要謹記我今天警告你們的話,要吩咐你們的子孫謹遵這律法上的話。 47 這律法不是空話,而是你們的生命。你們若遵守這律法,就必長住在約旦河對岸你們將要佔領的土地上。」
預言摩西的死
48 當天,耶和華對摩西說: 49 「你去耶利哥對面的摩押,登上亞巴琳山區的尼波山,觀看我要賜給以色列人作產業的迦南。 50 之後,你會死在山上,歸到你祖先那裡,如亞倫在何珥山離世歸祖一樣。 51 因為在荀曠野,在加低斯的米利巴泉旁,你和亞倫對我不忠,沒有在以色列人中尊我為聖。 52 所以,你只能遠遠地觀看我要賜給以色列人的土地,卻不能進去。」
Deuteronomy 32
Legacy Standard Bible
32 “(A)Give ear, O heavens, and let me speak;
And let the earth hear the words of my mouth.
2 (B)Let what I have learned drop as the rain,
My speech distill as the dew,
(C)As the droplets on the fresh grass
And as the showers on the herb.
3 (D)For I proclaim the name of Yahweh;
(E)Ascribe greatness to our God!
4 (F)The Rock! His work is [a]perfect,
(G)For all His ways are [b]just;
(H)A God of faithfulness and without injustice,
Righteous and upright is He.
5 [c](I)They have acted corruptly toward Him,
They are not His children because of their defect;
(J)But are a perverse and crooked generation.
6 Do you thus (K)repay Yahweh,
(L)O people who are wickedly foolish and without wisdom?
(M)Is not He your Father who has bought you?
(N)He has made you and established you.
7 Remember the ancient days,
Consider the years from generation to generation.
(O)Ask your father, and he will declare to you,
Your elders, and they will speak to you.
8 (P)When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance,
When He separated the sons of [d]man,
He set the boundaries of the peoples
(Q)According to the number of the [e]sons of Israel.
9 (R)For Yahweh’s portion is His people;
Jacob is the allotment of His inheritance.
10 (S)He found him in a desert land,
And in the howling waste of a wilderness;
He encircled him; He cared for him;
He guarded him as (T)the pupil of His eye.
11 (U)Like an eagle that stirs up its nest,
That hovers over its young,
(V)He spread His wings and caught them;
He carried them on His pinions.
12 (W)Yahweh alone guided him,
(X)And there was no foreign god with him.
13 (Y)He made him ride on the high places of the earth,
And he ate the produce of the field;
(Z)And He made him suck honey from the rock,
And (AA)oil from the flinty rock,
14 Curds of cows, and milk of the flock,
With fat of lambs,
And rams, the breed of Bashan, and goats,
(AB)With the finest of the wheat—
And of the (AC)blood of grapes you drank wine.
15 “(AD)But [f]Jeshurun grew fat and kicked—
You grew fat, thick, and sleek—
(AE)Then he abandoned God (AF)who made him,
And treated (AG)the Rock of his salvation with wicked foolishness.
16 (AH)They made Him jealous with strange gods;
(AI)With abominations they provoked Him to anger.
17 (AJ)They sacrificed to demons who were not God,
(AK)To gods whom they have not known,
(AL)New gods who came lately,
Whom your fathers did not dread.
18 You neglected (AM)the Rock who begot you,
(AN)And forgot the God who brought you forth.
19 “(AO)And Yahweh saw this and spurned them
(AP)Because of the provocation of His sons and daughters.
20 Then He said, ‘I will hide My face from them;
(AQ)I will see what their end shall be;
(AR)For they are a perverse generation,
(AS)Sons in whom is no faithfulness.
21 (AT)They have made Me jealous with what is not God;
They have provoked Me to anger with their [g](AU)idols.
(AV)So I will make them jealous with those who are not a people;
I will provoke them to anger with a wickedly foolish nation,
22 (AW)For a fire is kindled in My anger,
And it burns to the lowest part of Sheol,
(AX)And it consumes the earth with its produce,
And it sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.
23 ‘(AY)I will heap calamities on them;
(AZ)I will exhaust My arrows on them.
24 (BA)They will be wasted by famine, and consumed by [h]plague
(BB)And bitter destruction;
(BC)And the teeth of beasts I will send upon them,
(BD)With the venom of crawling things of the dust.
25 (BE)Outside the sword will bereave,
And inside terror—
(BF)Both choice man and virgin,
The nursing baby with the man of gray hair.
26 I would have said, “(BG)I will cut them to pieces;
(BH)I will cause the memory of them to cease from men,”
27 Had I not feared the provocation by the enemy,
Lest their adversaries misjudge,
Lest they say, “(BI)Our hand is [i]triumphant,
And Yahweh has not done all this.”’
28 “(BJ)For they are a nation where counsel perishes,
And there is no discernment in them.
29 (BK)Would that they were wise, that they had insight into this,
(BL)That they would understand their [j]future!
30 (BM)How could one pursue one thousand,
And two put ten thousand to flight,
Unless their (BN)Rock had sold them,
And Yahweh had handed them over?
31 Indeed their rock is not like our Rock,
(BO)Even our enemies [k]themselves judge this.
32 For their vine is from the vine of Sodom,
And from the fields of Gomorrah;
Their grapes are grapes of (BP)poison,
Their clusters, bitter.
33 Their wine is the venom of [l]serpents,
And the [m]deadly poison of cobras.
34 ‘(BQ)Is it not laid up in store with Me,
Sealed up in My treasuries?
35 (BR)Vengeance is Mine, and retribution,
(BS)In due time their foot will stumble;
(BT)For the day of their disaster is near,
And the impending things are hastening upon them.’
36 (BU)For Yahweh will render justice to His people,
(BV)And will have compassion on His slaves,
When He sees that their [n]strength is gone,
And there is none remaining, bond or free.
37 And He will say, ‘(BW)Where are their gods,
The rock in which they sought refuge?
38 (BX)Who ate the fat of their sacrifices,
And drank the wine of their drink offering?
(BY)Let them rise up and help you,
Let them be your hiding place!
39 (BZ)See now that I, I am He,
(CA)And there is no god besides Me;
(CB)It is I who put to death and give life.
(CC)I have wounded, and it is I who heal,
(CD)And there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
40 Indeed, (CE)I lift up My hand to heaven,
And say, as I live forever,
41 (CF)If I sharpen My [o]flashing sword,
And My hand takes hold on judgment,
(CG)I will render vengeance on My adversaries,
And I will repay those who hate Me.
42 (CH)I will make My arrows drunk with blood,
(CI)And My sword will devour flesh,
With the blood of the slain and the captives,
From the long-haired [p]leaders of the enemy.’
43 (CJ)O nations, cause His people to shout for joy;
(CK)For He will avenge the blood of His slaves,
(CL)And He will render vengeance on His adversaries,
(CM)And He will atone for His land and His people.”
44 Then Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the hearing of the people, he and [q](CN)Joshua the son of Nun. 45 Then Moses finished speaking all these words to all Israel, 46 and he said to them, “(CO)Place in your heart all the words with which I am warning you today, which you shall command (CP)your sons to be careful to do, even all the words of this law. 47 For it is not an idle word for you; indeed (CQ)it is your life. And (CR)by this word you will prolong your days in the land, [r]which you are about to cross the Jordan to [s]possess.”
Moses to Go Up Mount Nebo
48 (CS)And Yahweh spoke to Moses that very same day, saying, 49 “(CT)Go up to this mountain of the Abarim, Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab [t]opposite Jericho, and look at the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the sons of Israel for a possession. 50 Then die on the mountain where you ascend, and be (CU)gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people, 51 (CV)because you both acted unfaithfully with Me in the midst of the sons of Israel at the waters of Meribah-kadesh, in the (CW)wilderness of Zin, because you both did not treat Me as holy in the midst of the sons of Israel. 52 (CX)For you shall see the land at a distance, but (CY)you shall not go there, into the land which I am giving the sons of Israel.”
