Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1How the Lord has covered the Daughter of Zion with the cloud of His anger! He has cast the glory of Israel from heaven to earth. He has abandoned His footstool in the day of His anger.
1主何竟發怒,使黑雲遮蔽 錫安 城! 他將 以色列 的華美從天扔在地上; 在他發怒的日子並不記念自己的腳凳。
2Without pity the Lord has swallowed up all the dwellings of Jacob. In His wrath He has demolished the fortified cities of the Daughter of Judah. He brought to the ground and defiled her kingdom and its princes.
2主吞滅 雅各 一切的住處,並不顧惜。 他發怒傾覆 猶大 民的保障, 使這保障坍倒在地; 他辱沒這國和其中的首領。
3In fierce anger He has cut off every horn of Israel and withdrawn His right hand at the approach of the enemy. He has burned in Jacob like a flaming fire that consumes everything around it.
3他發烈怒,把 以色列 的角全然砍斷, 在仇敵面前收回右手。 他像火焰四圍吞滅,將 雅各 燒毀。
4He has bent His bow like an enemy; His right hand is positioned. Like a foe He has killed all who were pleasing to the eye; He has poured out His wrath like fire on the tent of the Daughter of Zion.
4他張弓好像仇敵; 他站着舉起右手, 如同敵人將悅人眼目的,盡行殺戮。 在 錫安 百姓的帳棚上 倒出他的忿怒,像火一樣。
5The Lord is like an enemy; He has swallowed up Israel. He has swallowed up all her palaces and destroyed her strongholds. He has multiplied mourning and lamentation for the Daughter of Judah.
5主如仇敵吞滅 以色列 和 錫安 的一切宮殿, 拆毀百姓的保障; 在 猶大 民中加增悲傷哭號。
6He has laid waste His tabernacle like a garden booth; He has destroyed His place of meeting. The LORD has made Zion forget her appointed feasts and Sabbaths. In His fierce anger He has despised both king and priest.
6他強取自己的帳幕,好像是園中的 窩 棚, 毀壞他的聚會之處。 耶和華使聖節和安息日在 錫安 都被忘記, 又在怒氣的憤恨中藐視君王和祭司。
7The Lord has rejected His altar; He has abandoned His sanctuary; He has delivered the walls of her palaces into the hand of the enemy. They have raised a shout in the house of the LORD as on the day of an appointed feast.
7耶和華丟棄自己的祭壇, 憎惡自己的聖所, 將宮殿的牆垣交付仇敵。 他們在耶和華的殿中喧嚷, 像在聖會之日一樣。
8The LORD determined to destroy the wall of the Daughter of Zion. He stretched out a measuring line and did not withdraw His hand from destroying. He made the ramparts and walls lament; together they waste away.
8耶和華定意拆毀 錫安 的城牆; 他拉了準繩, 不將手收回,定要毀滅。 他使外郭和城牆都悲哀, 一同衰敗。
9Her gates have sunk into the ground; He has destroyed and shattered their bars. Her king and her princes are exiled among the nations, the law is no more, and even her prophets find no vision from the LORD.
9錫安 的門都陷入地內; 主將她的門閂毀壞,折斷。 她的君王和首領落在沒有律法的列國中; 她的先知不得見耶和華的異象。
10The elders of the Daughter of Zion sit on the ground in silence. They have thrown dust on their heads and put on sackcloth. The young women of Jerusalem have bowed their heads to the ground.
10錫安 城的長老坐在地上默默無聲; 他們揚起塵土落在頭上,腰束麻布; 耶路撒冷 的處女垂頭至地。
11My eyes fail from weeping; I am churning within. My heart is poured out in grief over the destruction of the daughter of my people, because children and infants faint in the streets of the city.
11我眼中流淚,以致失明; 我的心腸擾亂,肝 膽 塗地, 都因我眾民遭毀滅, 又因孩童和吃奶的在城內街上發昏。
12They cry out to their mothers: “Where is the grain and wine?” as they faint like the wounded in the streets of the city, as their lives fade away in the arms of their mothers.
12那時,他們在城內街上發昏,好像受傷的, 在母親的懷裏,將要喪命; 對母親說:穀、酒在哪裏呢?
13What can I say for you? To what can I compare you, O Daughter of Jerusalem? To what can I liken you, that I may console you, O Virgin Daughter of Zion? For your wound is as deep as the sea. Who can ever heal you?
13耶路撒冷 的民哪,我可用甚麼向你證明呢? 我可用甚麼與你相比呢? 錫安 的民哪,我可拿甚麼和你比較,好安慰你呢? 因為你的裂口大如海, 誰能醫治你呢?
14The visions of your prophets were empty and deceptive; they did not expose your guilt to ward off your captivity. The burdens they envisioned for you were empty and misleading.
14你的先知為你見虛假和愚昧的異象, 並沒有顯露你的罪孽, 使你被擄的歸回; 卻為你見虛假的默示 和使你被趕出本境的緣故。
15All who pass by clap their hands at you in scorn. They hiss and shake their heads at the Daughter of Jerusalem: “Is this the city that was called the perfection of beauty, the joy of all the earth?”
15凡過路的都向你拍掌。 他們向 耶路撒冷 城嗤笑,搖頭, 說 : 難道人所稱為全美的, 稱為全地所喜悅的,就是這城嗎?
16All your enemies open their mouths against you. They hiss and gnash their teeth, saying, “We have swallowed her up. This is the day for which we have waited. We have lived to see it!”
16你的仇敵都向你大大張口; 他們嗤笑,又切齒說: 我們吞滅她。 這真是我們所盼望的日子臨到了! 我們親眼看見了!
17The LORD has done what He planned; He has accomplished His decree, which He ordained in days of old; He has overthrown you without pity. He has let the enemy gloat over you and exalted the horn of your foes.
17耶和華成就了他所定的, 應驗了他古時所命定的。 他傾覆了,並不顧惜, 使你的仇敵向你誇耀; 使你敵人的角也被高舉。
18The hearts of the people cry out to the Lord. O wall of the Daughter of Zion, let your tears run down like a river day and night. Give yourself no relief, and your eyes no rest.
18錫安 民的心哀求主。 錫安 的城牆啊,願你流淚如河, 晝夜不息; 願你眼中的瞳人淚流不止。
19Arise, cry out in the night from the first watch of the night. Pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord. Lift up your hands to Him for the lives of your children who are fainting from hunger on the corner of every street.
19夜間,每逢交更的時候要起來呼喊, 在主面前傾心如水。 你的孩童在各市口上受餓發昏; 你要為他們的性命向主舉手禱告。
20Look, O LORD, and consider: Whom have You ever treated like this? Should women eat their offspring, the infants they have nurtured? Should priests and prophets be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord?
20耶和華啊,求你觀看! 見你向誰這樣行? 婦人豈可吃自己所生育手裏所搖弄的嬰孩嗎? 祭司和先知豈可在主的聖所中被殺戮嗎?
21Both young and old lie together in the dust of the streets. My young men and maidens have fallen by the sword. You have slain them in the day of Your anger; You have slaughtered them without compassion.
21少年人和老年人都在街上躺臥; 我的處女和壯丁都倒在刀下; 你發怒的日子殺死他們。 你殺了,並不顧惜。
22You summoned my attackers on every side, as for the day of an appointed feast. In the day of the LORD’s anger no one escaped or survived; my enemy has destroyed those I nurtured and reared.
22你招聚四圍驚嚇我的, 像在大會的日子招聚 人 一樣。 耶和華發怒的日子, 無人逃脫,無人存留。 我所搖弄所養育的嬰孩, 仇敵都殺淨了。
