耶利米哀歌 4:20-22
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
20 耶和华膏立的王——我们的生命之气落入他们的陷阱。
我们原希望借他的荫庇立足于列国中。
21 乌斯地区的以东人啊，
只管欢喜作乐吧！
因为盛满耶和华愤怒的杯也要传到你们那里。
你们必喝醉，以致赤身露体。
22 锡安城啊！你已经受到了应得的刑罚，
耶和华必不再使你流亡。
以东啊，耶和华要惩罚你，
揭露你的罪恶！
Lamentations 4:20-22
New Catholic Bible
20 The Lord’s anointed,[a] our breath of life,
was caught in their traps,
he in whose shadow we thought
that we could live in safety among the nations.
21 Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Edom,
you who live in the land of Uz.
But to you also the cup will be passed;
you will become drunk and strip yourself naked.
22 O daughter of Zion, your punishment is now complete;
he will not prolong your exile.
But, daughter of Edom, he will punish your iniquity,
and he will lay bare your sins.

Lamentations 4:20-22
Common English Bible
20 The Lord’s chosen one, the very breath in our lungs, was caught in their traps—
the one we used to talk about, saying, “Under his protection we will live among the nations.”
21 Rejoice and be happy, Daughter Edom, you who live in the land of Uz.
But this cup will pass over to you too. You will get drunk on it. You will be stripped naked.
22 Your punishment[a] is over, Daughter Zion; God won’t expose you anymore.
But he will attend to your punishment, Daughter Edom; he will expose your sins.
