耶利米书 42
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1众军长和 加利亚 的儿子 约哈难 ，并 何沙雅 的儿子 耶撒尼亚 以及众百姓，从最小的到至大的都进前来，
1Then all the commanders of the forces, along with Johanan son of Kareah, Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least to the greatest, approached
2对先知 耶利米 说：「求你准我们在你面前祈求，为我们这剩下的人祷告耶和华—你的 神。我们本来众多，现在剩下的极少，这是你亲眼所见的。
2Jeremiah the prophet and said, “May our petition come before you; pray to the LORD your God on behalf of this entire remnant. For few of us remain of the many, as you can see with your own eyes.
3愿耶和华—你的 神指示我们所当走的路，所当做的事。」
3Pray that the LORD your God will tell us the way we should walk and the thing we should do.”
4先知 耶利米 对他们说：「我已经听见你们了，我必照着你们的话祷告耶和华—你们的 神。耶和华无论回答什么，我必都告诉你们，毫不隐瞒。」
4“I have heard you,” replied Jeremiah the prophet. “I will surely pray to the LORD your God as you request, and I will tell you everything that the LORD answers; I will not withhold a word from you.”
5于是他们对 耶利米 说：「我们若不照耶和华—你的 神差遣你来说的一切话行，愿耶和华在我们中间作真实诚信的见证。
5Then they said to Jeremiah, “May the LORD be a true and faithful witness against us if we do not act upon every word that the LORD your God sends you to tell us.
6我们现在请你到耶和华—我们的 神面前，他说的无论是好是歹，我们都必听从；我们听从耶和华—我们 神的话，就可以得福。」
6Whether it is pleasant or unpleasant, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God to whom we are sending you, so that it may go well with us, for we will obey the voice of the LORD our God!”
7过了十天，耶和华的话临到 耶利米 。
7After ten days the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah,
8他就将 加利亚 的儿子 约哈难 和同着他的众军长，并众百姓，从最小的到至大的都叫了来，
8and he summoned Johanan son of Kareah, all the commanders of the forces who were with him, and all the people from the least to the greatest.
9对他们说：「耶和华— 以色列 的 神，就是你们请我在他面前为你们祈求的 主 ，如此说：
9Jeremiah told them, “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to whom you sent me to present your petition:
10『你们若仍住在这地，我就建立你们，必不拆毁，栽植你们，并不拔出，因我为降与你们的灾祸后悔了。
10‘If you will indeed stay in this land, then I will build you up and not tear you down; I will plant you and not uproot you, for I will relent of the disaster I have brought upon you.
11不要怕你们所怕的 巴比伦 王。』」耶和华说：「不要怕他！因为我与你们同在，要拯救你们脱离他的手。
11Do not be afraid of the king of Babylon, whom you now fear; do not be afraid of him, declares the LORD, for I am with you to save you and deliver you from him.
12我也要使他发怜悯，好怜悯你们，叫你们归回本地。
12And I will show you compassion, and he will have compassion on you and restore you to your own land.’
13倘若你们说：『我们不住在这地』，以致不听从耶和华—你们 神的话，
13But if you say, ‘We will not stay in this land,’ and you thus disobey the voice of the LORD your God,
14说：『我们不住这地，却要进入 埃及 地，在那里看不见争战，听不见角声，也不致无食饥饿。我们必住在那里。』
14and if you say, ‘No, but we will go to the land of Egypt and live there, where we will not see war or hear the sound of the ram’s horn or hunger for bread,’
15你们所剩下的 犹大 人哪，现在要听耶和华的话。万军之耶和华— 以色列 的 神如此说：『你们若定意要进入 埃及 ，在那里寄居，
15then hear the word of the LORD, O remnant of Judah! This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘If you are determined to go to Egypt and reside there,
16你们所惧怕的刀剑在 埃及 地必追上你们！你们所惧怕的饥荒在 埃及 要紧紧地跟随你们！你们必死在那里！
16then the sword you fear will overtake you there, and the famine you dread will follow on your heels into Egypt, and you will die there.
17凡定意要进入 埃及 在那里寄居的必遭刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫而死，无一人存留，逃脱我所降与他们的灾祸。』
17So all who resolve to go to Egypt to reside there will die by sword and famine and plague. Not one of them will survive or escape the disaster I will bring upon them.’
18「万军之耶和华— 以色列 的 神如此说：『我怎样将我的怒气和忿怒倾在 耶路撒冷 的居民身上，你们进入 埃及 的时候，我也必照样将我的忿怒倾在你们身上，以致你们令人辱骂、惊骇、咒诅、羞辱，你们不得再见这地方。』
18For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Just as My anger and wrath were poured out on the residents of Jerusalem, so will My wrath be poured out on you if you go to Egypt. You will become an object of cursing and horror, of vilification and disgrace, and you will never see this place again.’
19所剩下的 犹大 人哪，耶和华论到你们说：『不要进入 埃及 去。』你们要确实地知道我今日警教你们了。
19The LORD has told you, O remnant of Judah, ‘Do not go to Egypt.’ Know for sure that I have warned you today!
20你们行诡诈自害；因为你们请我到耶和华—你们的 神那里，说：『求你为我们祷告耶和华—我们 神，照耶和华—我们的 神一切所说的告诉我们，我们就必遵行。』
20For you have deceived yourselves by sending me to the LORD your God, saying, ‘Pray to the LORD our God on our behalf, and as for all that the LORD our God says, tell it to us and we will do it.’
21我今日将这话告诉你们，耶和华—你们的 神为你们的事差遣我到你们那里说的，你们却一样没有听从。
21For I have told you today, but you have not obeyed the voice of the LORD your God in all He has sent me to tell you.
22现在你们要确实地知道，你们在所要去寄居之地必遭刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫而死。」
22Now therefore, know for sure that by sword and famine and plague you will die in the place where you desire to go to reside.”
