耶利米哀歌 1
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
[a]耶路撒冷的忧患
1 唉！先前人口稠密的城市，
现在为何独坐！
先前在列国中为大的，
现在竟如寡妇！
先前在各省中为王后的，
现在竟成为服苦役的人！
2 她[b]夜间痛哭，泪流满颊，
在所有亲爱的人中，找不到一个安慰她的。
她的朋友都以诡诈待她，
成为她的仇敌。
3 犹大被掳，
遭遇苦难，多服劳役。
她住在列国中，得不着安息；
追逼她的在狭窄之地追上她。
4 锡安的道路因无人前来过节就哀伤，
她的城门荒凉，
祭司叹息，
少女悲伤；
她自己充满痛苦。
5 她的敌人作主，
她的仇敌亨通；
耶和华因她过犯多而使她受苦，
她的孩童在敌人面前去作俘虏。
6 锡安[c]的威荣全都失去。
她的领袖如找不着草场的鹿，
在追赶的人面前无力行走。
7 耶路撒冷在困苦窘迫之时，
就追想古时一切的荣华。
她的百姓落在敌人手中，无人帮助；
敌人看见，就因她的毁灭嗤笑。
8 耶路撒冷犯了大罪，
因此成为不洁净；
素来尊敬她的，见她裸露就都藐视她，
她自己也叹息退后。
9 她的污秽是在下摆上；
她未曾思想自己的结局，
她的败落令人惊诧，
无人安慰她。
“耶和华啊，求你看顾我的苦难，
因为仇敌强大。”
10 敌人伸手夺取她的一切贵重物品；
她眼见列国侵入她的圣所，
你曾吩咐他们不可进入你的集会。
11 她的百姓都叹息，寻求食物；
他们用贵重物品换取粮食，要救性命。
“耶和华啊，求你观看，
留意我多么卑微。”
耶路撒冷的哀号
12 所有过路的人哪，愿这事不要发生在你们身上[d]。
你们要留意观看，
有像这样临到我的痛苦没有？
耶和华在他发烈怒的日子使我受苦。
13 他从高处降火进入我的骨头，
克制了我；
他张开网，绊我的脚，
使我退后，
又令我终日凄凉发昏。
14 他用手绑我罪过的轭，
卷绕着加在我颈项上；
他使我力量衰败。
主将我交在我不能抵挡的人手中。
15 主弃绝我们当中所有的勇士，
聚集会众攻击我，
要压碎我的年轻人。
主踹下少女犹大[e]，
在榨酒池中。
16 我因这些事哭泣，
眼泪汪汪；
因为那安慰我、使我重新得力的，
离我甚远。
我的儿女孤苦，
因为仇敌得胜了。
17 锡安伸出双手，却无人安慰。
论到雅各，耶和华已经出令，
使四围的人作他的仇敌；
耶路撒冷在他们中间成为不洁净。
18 耶和华是公义的！
我违背了他的命令。
万民哪，请听，
来看我的痛苦；
我的少女和壮丁都被掳去。
19 我招呼我所亲爱的，
他们却欺骗了我。
我的祭司和长老寻找食物，要救性命的时候，
就在城中断了气。
20 耶和华啊，求你观看，
因为我在急难中；
我的心肠烦乱，
我心在我里面翻转，
因我大大背逆。
在外，刀剑使人丧亡；
在家，犹如死亡。
21 有人听见我叹息[f]，
却无人安慰我！
我所有的仇敌听见我的患难就喜乐，
因这是你所做的。
你使你所宣告的日子来临，
愿他们像我一样。
22 愿他们的恶行都呈现在你面前；
你怎样因我一切的罪过待我，
求你也照样待他们；
因我叹息甚多，心中发昏。

Lament over Jerusalem
א Alef
1 How[a] she sits alone,(A)
the city(B) once crowded with people!
She who was great among the nations
has become like a widow.(C)
The princess among the provinces
has been put to forced labor.
ב Bet
2 She weeps aloud during the night,(D)
with tears on her cheeks.
There is no one to offer her comfort,
not one from all her lovers.[b](E)
All her friends have betrayed her;
they have become her enemies.
ג Gimel
3 Judah has gone into exile
following[c] affliction and harsh slavery;
she lives among the nations
but finds no place to rest.(F)
All her pursuers have overtaken her
in narrow places.
ד Dalet
4 The roads to Zion(G) mourn,
for no one comes to the appointed festivals.(H)
All her gates are deserted;
her priests groan,
her young women grieve,
and she herself is bitter.
ה He
5 Her adversaries have become her masters;(I)
her enemies are at ease,(J)
for the Lord has made her suffer
because of her many transgressions.
Her children have gone away
as captives before the adversary.
ו Vav
6 All her splendor(K) has vanished
from Daughter Zion.(L)
Her leaders are like stags
that find no pasture;
they walk away exhausted
before the hunter.(M)
ז Zayin
7 During the days of her affliction and homelessness(N)
Jerusalem remembers all her precious belongings
that were hers in days of old.
When her people fell into the adversary’s hand,
she had no one to help.
The adversaries looked at her,
laughing over her downfall.
ח Khet
8 Jerusalem has sinned grievously;
therefore, she has become an object of scorn.[d]
All who honored her now despise her,
for they have seen her nakedness.
She herself groans and turns away.
ט Tet
9 Her uncleanness stains her skirts.(O)
She never considered her end.
Her downfall was astonishing;(P)
there was no one to comfort her.
Lord, look on my affliction,
for the enemy triumphs!
י Yod
10 The adversary has seized
all her precious belongings.
She has even seen the nations
enter her sanctuary—
those You had forbidden
to enter Your assembly.(Q)
כ Kaf
11 All her people groan
while they search for bread.(R)
They have traded their precious belongings for food
in order to stay alive.(S)
Lord, look and see
how I have become despised.
ל Lamed
12 Is this nothing to you, all you who pass by?(T)
Look and see!
Is there any pain like mine,
which was dealt out to me,
which the Lord made me suffer
on the day of His burning anger?(U)
מ Mem
13 He sent fire from heaven(V) into my bones;
He made it descend.[e](W)
He spread a net for my feet(X)
and turned me back.
He made me desolate,
sick all day long.
נ Nun
14 My transgressions have been formed into a yoke,[f][g](Y)
fastened together by His hand;
they have been placed on my neck,
and the Lord has broken my strength.
He has handed me over
to those I cannot withstand.
ס Samek
15 The Lord has rejected(Z)
all the mighty men within me.
He has summoned an army[h] against me
to crush my young warriors.
The Lord has trampled Virgin Daughter Judah(AA)
like grapes in a winepress.(AB)
ע Ayin
16 I weep because of these things;
my eyes flow[i] with tears.(AC)
For there is no one nearby to comfort me,(AD)
no one to keep me alive.
My children are desolate
because the enemy has prevailed.
פ Pe
17 Zion stretches out her hands;
there is no one to comfort her.
The Lord has issued a decree against Jacob
that his neighbors should be his adversaries.
Jerusalem has become
something impure(AE) among them.
צ Tsade
18 The Lord is just,
for I have rebelled against His command.(AF)
Listen, all you people;
look at my pain.
My young men and women
have gone into captivity.(AG)
ק Qof
19 I called to my lovers,(AH)
but they betrayed me.
My priests and elders
perished in the city
while searching for food
to keep themselves alive.(AI)
ר Resh
20 Lord, see how I am in distress.
I am churning within;(AJ)
my heart is broken,[j]
for I have been very rebellious.
Outside, the sword takes the children;
inside, there is death.(AK)
שׁ Shin
21 People have heard me groaning,(AL)
but there is no one to comfort me.
All my enemies have heard of my misfortune;
they are glad that You have caused it.(AM)
Bring on the day You have announced,
so that they may become like me.(AN)
ת Tav
22 Let all their wickedness come before You,
and deal with them
as You have dealt with me
because of all my transgressions.(AO)
For my groans are many,
and I am sick at heart.

Jerusalem in Affliction
1 How lonely sits the city
That was full of people!
(A)How like a widow is she,
Who was great among the nations!
The (B)princess among the provinces
Has become a [a]slave!
2 She (C)weeps bitterly in the (D)night,
Her tears are on her cheeks;
Among all her lovers
She has none to comfort her.
All her friends have dealt treacherously with her;
They have become her enemies.
3 (E)Judah has gone into captivity,
Under affliction and hard servitude;
(F)She dwells among the [b]nations,
She finds no (G)rest;
All her persecutors overtake her in dire straits.
4 The roads to Zion mourn
Because no one comes to the [c]set feasts.
All her gates are (H)desolate;
Her priests sigh,
Her virgins are afflicted,
And she is in bitterness.
5 Her adversaries (I)have become [d]the master,
Her enemies prosper;
For the Lord has afflicted her
(J)Because of the multitude of her transgressions.
Her (K)children have gone into captivity before the enemy.
6 And from the daughter of Zion
All her splendor has departed.
Her princes have become like deer
That find no pasture,
That [e]flee without strength
Before the pursuer.
7 In the days of her affliction and roaming,
Jerusalem (L)remembers all her pleasant things
That she had in the days of old.
When her people fell into the hand of the enemy,
With no one to help her,
The adversaries saw her
And mocked at her [f]downfall.
8 (M)Jerusalem has sinned gravely,
Therefore she has become [g]vile.
All who honored her despise her
Because (N)they have seen her nakedness;
Yes, she sighs and turns away.
9 Her uncleanness is in her skirts;
She (O)did not consider her destiny;
Therefore her collapse was awesome;
She had no comforter.
“O Lord, behold my affliction,
For the enemy is exalted!”
10 The adversary has spread his hand
Over all her [h]pleasant things;
For she has seen (P)the nations enter her [i]sanctuary,
Those whom You commanded
(Q)Not to enter Your assembly.
11 All her people sigh,
(R)They [j]seek bread;
They have given their [k]valuables for food to restore life.
“See, O Lord, and consider,
For I am scorned.”
12 “Is it nothing to you, all you who [l]pass by?
Behold and see
(S)If there is any sorrow like my sorrow,
Which has been brought on me,
Which the Lord has inflicted
In the day of His fierce anger.
13 “From above He has sent fire into my bones,
And it overpowered them;
He has (T)spread a net for my feet
And turned me back;
He has made me desolate
And faint all the day.
14 “The(U) yoke of my transgressions was [m]bound;
They were woven together by His hands,
And thrust upon my neck.
He made my strength fail;
The Lord delivered me into the hands of those whom I am not able to withstand.
15 “The Lord has trampled underfoot all my mighty men in my midst;
He has called an assembly against me
To crush my young men;
(V)The Lord trampled as in a winepress
The virgin daughter of Judah.
16 “For these things I weep;
My eye, (W)my eye overflows with water;
Because the comforter, who should restore my life,
Is far from me.
My children are desolate
Because the enemy prevailed.”
17 (X)Zion [n]spreads out her hands,
But no one comforts her;
The Lord has commanded concerning Jacob
That those (Y)around him become his adversaries;
Jerusalem has become an unclean thing among them.
18 “The Lord is (Z)righteous,
For I (AA)rebelled against His [o]commandment.
Hear now, all peoples,
And behold my sorrow;
My virgins and my young men
Have gone into captivity.
19 “I called for my lovers,
But they deceived me;
My priests and my elders
Breathed their last in the city,
While they sought food
To restore their life.
20 “See, O Lord, that I am in distress;
My (AB)soul[p] is troubled;
My heart is overturned within me,
For I have been very rebellious.
(AC)Outside the sword bereaves,
At home it is like death.
21 “They have heard that I sigh,
But no one comforts me.
All my enemies have heard of my trouble;
They are (AD)glad that You have done it.
Bring on (AE)the day You have [q]announced,
That they may become like me.
22 “Let(AF) all their wickedness come before You,
And do to them as You have done to me
For all my transgressions;
For my sighs are many,
And my heart is faint.”
