Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now the angel of the LORD went up from Gilgal to Bochim and said, “I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land that I had promised to your fathers, and I said, ‘I will never break My covenant with you,
1耶和華的使者從 吉甲 上到 波金 ，對 以色列 人說：「我使你們從 埃及 上來，領你們到我向你們列祖起誓應許之地。我又說：『我永不廢棄與你們所立的約。
2and you are not to make a covenant with the people of this land, but you shall tear down their altars.’ Yet you have not obeyed My voice. What is this you have done?
2你們也不可與這地的居民立約，要拆毀他們的祭壇。你們竟沒有聽從我的話！為何這樣行呢？』
3So now I tell you that I will not drive out these people before you; they will be thorns in your sides, and their gods will be a snare to you.”
3因此我又說：『我必不將他們從你們面前趕出；他們必作你們肋下的 荊棘 。他們的神必作你們的網羅。』」
4When the angel of the LORD had spoken these words to all the Israelites, the people lifted up their voices and wept.
4耶和華的使者向 以色列 眾人說這話的時候，百姓就放聲而哭；
5So they called that place Bochim and offered sacrifices there to the LORD.
5於是給那地方起名叫 波金 。眾人在那裏向耶和華獻祭。
6After Joshua had dismissed the people, the Israelites went out to take possession of the land, each to his own inheritance.
6從前 約書亞 打發 以色列 百姓去的時候，他們各歸自己的地業，佔據地土。
7And the people served the LORD throughout the days of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him, who had seen all the great works that the LORD had done for Israel.
7約書亞 在世和 約書亞 死後，那些見耶和華為 以色列 人所行大事的長老還在的時候，百姓都事奉耶和華。
8And Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at the age of 110.
8耶和華的僕人、 嫩 的兒子 約書亞 ，正一百一十歲就死了。
9They buried him in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath-heres in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
9以色列 人將他葬在他地業的境內，就是在 以法蓮 山地的 亭拿‧希烈 ，在 迦實山 的北邊。
10After that whole generation had also been gathered to their fathers, another generation rose up who did not know the LORD or the works that He had done for Israel.
10那世代的人也都歸了自己的列祖。後來有別的世代興起，不知道耶和華，也不知道耶和華為 以色列 人所行的事。
11And the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD and served the Baals.
11以色列 人行耶和華眼中看為惡的事，去事奉諸 巴力 ，
12Thus they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and they followed after various gods of the peoples around them. They bowed down to them and provoked the LORD to anger,
12離棄了領他們出 埃及 地的耶和華－他們列祖的上帝，去叩拜別神，就是四圍列國的神，惹耶和華發怒；
13for they forsook Him and served Baal and the Ashtoreths.
13並離棄耶和華，去事奉 巴力 和 亞斯她錄 。
14Then the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He delivered them into the hands of those who plundered them. He sold them into the hands of their enemies all around, whom they were no longer able to resist.
14耶和華的怒氣向 以色列 人發作，就把他們交在搶奪他們的人手中，又將他們付與四圍仇敵的手中，甚至他們在仇敵面前再不能站立得住。
15Wherever Israel marched out, the hand of the LORD was against them to bring calamity, just as He had sworn to them. So they were greatly distressed.
15他們無論往何處去，耶和華都以災禍攻擊他們，正如耶和華所說的話，又如耶和華向他們所起的誓；他們便極其困苦。
16Then the LORD raised up judges, who saved them from the hands of those who plundered them.
16耶和華興起士師，士師就拯救他們脫離搶奪他們人的手。
17Israel, however, did not listen to their judges. Instead, they prostituted themselves with other gods and bowed down to them. They quickly turned from the way of their fathers, who had walked in obedience to the LORD’s commandments; they did not do as their fathers had done.
17他們卻不聽從士師，竟隨從叩拜別神，行了邪淫，速速地偏離他們列祖所行的道，不如他們列祖順從耶和華的命令。
18Whenever the LORD raised up a judge for the Israelites, He was with that judge and saved them from the hands of their enemies while the judge was still alive; for the LORD was moved to pity by their groaning under those who oppressed them and afflicted them.
18耶和華為他們興起士師，就與那士師同在。士師在世的一切日子，耶和華拯救他們脫離仇敵的手。他們因受欺壓擾害，就哀聲歎氣，所以耶和華後悔了。
19But when the judge died, the Israelites became even more corrupt than their fathers, going after other gods to serve them and bow down to them. They would not give up their evil practices and stubborn ways.
19及至士師死後，他們就轉去行惡，比他們列祖更甚，去事奉叩拜別神，總不斷絕頑梗的惡行。
20So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He said, “Because this nation has transgressed the covenant I laid down for their fathers and has not heeded My voice,
20於是耶和華的怒氣向 以色列 人發作。他說：「因這民違背我吩咐他們列祖所守的約，不聽從我的話，
21I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.
21所以 約書亞 死的時候所剩下的各族，我必不再從他們面前趕出，
22In this way I will test whether Israel will keep the way of the LORD by walking in it as their fathers did.”
22為要藉此試驗 以色列 人，看他們肯照他們列祖謹守遵行我的道不肯。」
23That is why the LORD had left those nations in place and had not driven them out immediately by delivering them into the hand of Joshua.
23這樣耶和華留下各族，不將他們速速趕出，也沒有交付 約書亞 的手。
