耶利米哀歌 2
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶和华惩罚耶路撒冷
2 主的怒气像乌云一样遮盖锡安城[a]，
祂使以色列的荣美从天上坠下。
祂发怒的时候并不顾念自己的脚凳。
2 主毫不留情地毁灭雅各一切的住处，
祂在烈怒中夷平犹大的堡垒，
让以色列及其首领蒙羞。
3 祂发烈怒毁灭以色列全军。
敌人袭来时，祂收回大能的手。
祂像烈焰一样吞噬雅各。
4 祂抬起右手张弓搭箭，
宛若仇敌，
杀戮一切悦人眼目的人，
将祂的怒火撒向锡安城的帐篷。
5 主像敌人一样毁灭以色列，
吞噬她的宫殿，夷平她的堡垒，
使犹大人哀哭不止。
6 祂摧毁自己的居所，
如同摧毁花园；
祂摧毁自己规定的聚会之处，
使锡安的人民忘记安息日和节期。
祂在烈怒中弃绝所有的君王和祭司。
7 主撇弃自己的祭坛，
憎恶自己的圣所，
把耶路撒冷的殿墙交给敌人。
他们像过节一样，
在耶和华的殿中喧嚷吵闹。
8 耶和华决意拆毁锡安的城墙，
祂拉了准线，
定意毁灭，决不停止。
祂使城墙和壁垒一同悲哀哭泣。
9 锡安的城门陷入地中，
主摧毁、砍断她的门闩。
她的君王和首领流落异乡，
律法不复存在，
她的先知得不到从耶和华而来的异象。
10 锡安城的长老腰束麻布，
头蒙灰尘，坐在地上，
默然不语；
耶路撒冷的少女垂头至地。
11 我哭得眼睛失明，
心如刀割，肝胆欲碎，
因为人民惨遭毁灭，
儿童和婴孩昏倒在街头。
12 孩子们问母亲：
“哪里有饼和酒呢？”
他们像受伤的勇士，
昏倒在城中的街头，
在母亲怀中奄奄一息。
13 耶路撒冷啊，我该说什么呢？
谁能与你的苦难相比呢？
锡安啊，我用什么话语才能安慰你呢？
你的伤口深如海洋，
谁能医治你呢？
14 你的先知所见的异象虚假无用。
他们没有揭露你的罪恶，
以致你被掳。
他们给你的预言虚假谬误。
15 路人都拍掌嘲笑你。
他们向耶路撒冷城摇头，
嗤笑道：
“这就是那被誉为完美无瑕、
普世喜悦的城吗？”
16 敌人都幸灾乐祸地讥讽你，
他们咬牙切齿地说：
“我们吞灭了她！
这是我们期待已久的日子！
我们终于见到这一天了！”
17 耶和华实现了祂的计划，
成就了祂很久以前的应许。
祂毫不留情地毁灭了你，
使你的仇敌幸灾乐祸，
耀武扬威。
18 锡安的城墙啊，
你要从心里向主呼求！
你的眼泪要像江河一样昼夜涌流，
不歇不眠。
19 你要在夜间起来，
在主面前整夜呼求，
向祂倾心吐意；
你要为饿昏街头的孩童向主举手祷告。
20 “耶和华啊，求你看看，
你曾这样对付过谁呢？
母亲岂能吃自己的孩子？
祭司和先知岂能在主的圣所中被杀？
21 “老人和小孩陈尸街头，
少男少女都丧身刀下。
你在发怒的日子杀了他们，
毫不留情。
22 “你从四面八方召人攻击我，
如同召集人过节。
耶和华发怒的日子，
无人得以逃脱，无人得以幸免。
敌人杀光了我养育的孩子。”

在母親懷中奄奄一息。

誰能與你的苦難相比呢？

「我們吞滅了她！
這是我們期待已久的日子！
我們終於見到這一天了！」

成就了祂很久以前的應許。
祂毫不留情地毀滅了你，
使你的仇敵幸災樂禍，
耀武揚威。

你要從心裡向主呼求！
你的眼淚要像江河一樣晝夜湧流，
不歇不眠。

在主面前整夜呼求，
向祂傾心吐意；
你要為餓昏街頭的孩童向主舉手禱告。
20 「耶和華啊，求你看看，
你曾這樣對付過誰呢？
母親豈能吃自己的孩子？
祭司和先知豈能在主的聖所中被殺？
21 「老人和小孩陳屍街頭，
少男少女都喪身刀下。
你在發怒的日子殺了他們，
毫不留情。
22 「你從四面八方召人攻擊我，
如同召集人過節。
耶和華發怒的日子，
無人得以逃脫，無人得以倖免。
敵人殺光了我養育的孩子。」
Lamentations 2
King James Version
2 How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, and cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!
2 The Lord hath swallowed up all the habitations of Jacob, and hath not pitied: he hath thrown down in his wrath the strong holds of the daughter of Judah; he hath brought them down to the ground: he hath polluted the kingdom and the princes thereof.
3 He hath cut off in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy, and he burned against Jacob like a flaming fire, which devoureth round about.
4 He hath bent his bow like an enemy: he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion: he poured out his fury like fire.
5 The Lord was as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel, he hath swallowed up all her palaces: he hath destroyed his strong holds, and hath increased in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
6 And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden: he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: the Lord hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.
7 The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath abhorred his sanctuary, he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces; they have made a noise in the house of the Lord, as in the day of a solemn feast.
8 The Lord hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he hath stretched out a line, he hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying: therefore he made the rampart and the wall to lament; they languished together.
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more; her prophets also find no vision from the Lord.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, and keep silence: they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
11 Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
12 They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swooned as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul was poured out into their mothers' bosom.
13 What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is great like the sea: who can heal thee?
14 Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.
15 All that pass by clap their hands at thee; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, Is this the city that men call The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
16 All thine enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed her up: certainly this is the day that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it.
17 The Lord hath done that which he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old: he hath thrown down, and hath not pitied: and he hath caused thine enemy to rejoice over thee, he hath set up the horn of thine adversaries.
18 Their heart cried unto the Lord, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give thyself no rest; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
19 Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street.
20 Behold, O Lord, and consider to whom thou hast done this. Shall the women eat their fruit, and children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 The young and the old lie on the ground in the streets: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword; thou hast slain them in the day of thine anger; thou hast killed, and not pitied.
22 Thou hast called as in a solemn day my terrors round about, so that in the day of the Lord's anger none escaped nor remained: those that I have swaddled and brought up hath mine enemy consumed.
