耶利米书 15
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
犹大百姓的厄运
15 耶和华对我说:“虽有摩西和撒母耳站在我面前,我的心也不顾惜这百姓。你把他们从我眼前赶出,叫他们出去吧! 2 他们若问你说:‘我们往哪里去呢?’你就告诉他们,耶和华如此说:
‘定为死亡的,必致死亡;
定为刀杀的,必被刀杀;
定为饥荒的,必遭饥荒;
定为掳掠的,必被掳掠。’”
3 “我命定四样灾害临到他们,就是刀剑杀戮、群狗拖拉、空中的飞鸟和地上的走兽吞吃毁灭。这是耶和华说的。 4 我必使地上万国因他们而惊骇,都因希西家的儿子犹大王玛拿西在耶路撒冷所做的事。”
5 耶路撒冷啊,有谁同情你呢?
有谁为你悲伤呢?
有谁转身问你安呢?
6 你弃绝了我,
转身退后;
因此我伸手攻击你,毁灭你,
我已怜悯到厌烦了。
这是耶和华说的。
7 我在境内各关口
用簸箕筛我的百姓,
使他们丧掉儿女,
又毁灭他们,
他们仍不转离所行的道。
8 他们的寡妇在我面前比海沙更多;
我使灭命者在正午来到,
攻击年轻人的母亲,
使痛苦惊吓忽然临到她身上。
9 生过七个孩子的妇人衰弱;
尚在白昼,太阳忽然落下,
她就抱愧蒙羞。
我必当着敌人的面,
将他们当中的幸存者交给刀剑。
这是耶和华说的。
耶利米向耶和华诉苦
10 我的母亲哪,我有祸了!因你生我作全地争相指控的人。我素来没有借贷给人,人也没有借贷给我,人人却都咒骂我。 11 耶和华说:“我必定释放[a]你,使你得福气。灾祸苦难来临时,我必使仇敌央求你。 12 人岂能将铜与铁,就是北方的铁折断呢?
13 “我必因你在四境之内所犯的一切罪,将你的货物财宝当掠物,白白地交出来[b]。 14 我要使你的仇敌过去,到你所不认识的地方[c],因为你们要被我怒中所起的火焚烧。”
15 耶和华啊,你是知道的;
求你记念我,眷顾我,
向迫害我的人为我报仇;
不要把我取去,因你不轻易发怒,
要知道我为你的缘故受了凌辱。
16 耶和华—万军之 神啊,
我得着你的话就把它们吃了,
你的话是我心中的欢喜快乐;
因我是称为你名下的人。
17 我并未坐在享乐人的会中欢乐;
因你的手,我就独自静坐,
你使我满心愤慨。
18 我的痛苦为何长久不止呢?
我的伤痕为何无法可医,不能痊愈呢?
难道你以诡诈待我,像流干的河道吗?
19 所以耶和华如此说:“你若回转,
我就使你归回,
站在我面前。
你若能将宝物和无用之物分别出来,
你就可以当作我的口。
他们必归向你,
你却不可归向他们。
20 我必使你向这百姓成为坚固的铜墙。
他们必攻击你,却不能胜过你;
因我与你同在,要拯救你,搭救你。
这是耶和华说的。
21 我必搭救你脱离恶人的手,
救赎你脱离残暴之人的手。”
耶利米書 15
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
猶大的厄運
15 耶和華對我說:「就算摩西和撒母耳站在我面前求情,我也不會憐憫這些百姓。你把他們從我面前趕走吧! 2 如果他們問你,『我們該去哪裡,』你就告訴他們,耶和華這樣說,
『該死的死,
該被殺的被殺,
該遭饑荒的遭饑荒,
該被擄的被擄。』
3 「我要讓他們遭受四種禍患——刀殺、狗撕、鳥啄、獸吞。這是耶和華說的。 4 因為猶大王希西迦的兒子瑪拿西在耶路撒冷的所作所為,我要使他們的遭遇令天下萬國驚懼。
5 「耶路撒冷啊,誰會同情你?
誰會為你悲哀?
誰會駐足向你問安?
6 你背棄我,遠離我,
因此我要伸手攻擊你,毀滅你,
不再憐憫你。
這是耶和華說的。
7 我要在這片土地上的各城門口用簸箕簸散我的子民,
使他們喪掉兒女;
我要滅絕他們,
因為他們不思悔改。
8 我要使他們的寡婦比海沙還多,
使毀滅者在午間突然奪取青年的性命,
以致母親們陷入痛苦、驚恐中。
9 生過七個孩子的母親心力枯竭,奄奄一息。
她羞愧難當,
她的希望突然破滅,
猶如白晝突然變成黑夜。
我必使其餘的人喪身在敵人刀下。
這是耶和華說的。」
耶利米訴苦
10 母親啊,我真不幸,因為你生了我這個跟全猶大爭論、激辯的人。我沒有向人借貸,也沒有借貸給人,然而人人都咒罵我。 11 耶和華說:「我必拯救你,我必使仇敵在災禍、困難來臨時哀求你。 12 誰能折斷來自北方之敵的鐵拳銅臂呢? 13 因為你們境內罪惡氾濫,我要使敵人任意搶掠你們的財寶, 14 把你們擄到陌生的地方。我的怒火要燒滅你們。」
15 耶和華啊,你知道我的遭遇。
求你顧念我,眷顧我,
報應迫害我的人。
求你不要取我的性命,
因為你不輕易發怒,
你知道我為了你忍受辱罵。
16 萬軍之上帝耶和華啊,
我把你的話視為甘飴,
它們是我心中的快樂和喜悅,
因為我屬於你的名下。
17 我沒有與作樂的人為伍,
沒有與他們同樂。
你要我獨坐一處,
他們的罪惡使我怒氣填胸。
18 為什麼我的痛楚無休無止?
為什麼我的創傷無法醫治?
難道你要像一條時斷時流的小溪讓我無法依靠嗎?
19 耶和華對我說:
「如果你回心轉意,
我就讓你重新事奉我。
如果你說有益的話,
不說無益的話,
就可以做我的發言人,
百姓便會歸向你,
但你不可受他們的影響。
20 我要使你成為堅固的銅牆,
他們要攻擊你,卻不能勝過你,
因為我與你同在,我會保護你,
拯救你。
這是耶和華說的。
21 我要把你從惡人手中救出,
從殘暴之徒的權勢下贖回。」
Jeremiah 15
King James Version
15 Then said the Lord unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.
2 And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the Lord; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.
3 And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the Lord: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.
4 And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
5 For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest?
6 Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.
7 And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people since they return not from their ways.
8 Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.
9 She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the Lord.
10 Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one of them doth curse me.
11 The Lord said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
12 Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel?
13 Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and that for all thy sins, even in all thy borders.
14 And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burn upon you.
15 O Lord, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.
16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.
17 I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.
18 Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail?
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.
20 And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
21 And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.
