耶利米书 44
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1有临到 耶利米 的话，论及一切住在 埃及 地的 犹大 人，就是住在 密夺 、 答比匿 、 挪弗 、 巴忒罗 境内的 犹大 人，说：
1The word that came to Jeremias, concerning all the Jews that dwelt in the land of Egypt, dwelling in Magdal, and in Taphnis, and in Memphis, and in the land of Phatures, saying:
2「万军之耶和华— 以色列 的 神如此说：我所降与 耶路撒冷 和 犹大 各城的一切灾祸你们都看见了。那些城邑今日荒凉，无人居住；
2Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: You have seen all this evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Juda: and behold they are desolate this day, and there is not an inhabitant in them:
3这是因居民所行的恶，去烧香事奉别神，就是他们和你们，并你们列祖所不认识的神，惹我发怒。
3Because of the wickedness which they have committed, to provoke me to wrath, and to go and offer sacrifice, and worship other gods, which neither they, nor you, nor your fathers knew.
4我从早起来差遣我的仆人众先知去说，你们切不要行我所厌恶这可憎之事。
4And I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising early, and sending, and saying: Do not commit this abominable thing, which I hate.
5他们却不听从，不侧耳而听，不转离恶事，仍向别神烧香。
5But they heard not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their evil ways, and not to sacrifice to strange gods.
6因此，我的怒气和忿怒都倒出来，在 犹大 城邑中和 耶路撒冷 的街市上， 如火 着起，以致都荒废凄凉，正如今日一样。
6Wherefore my indignation and my fury was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and they are turned to desolation and waste, as at this day.
7现在耶和华—万军之 神、 以色列 的 神如此说：你们为何作这大恶自害己命，使你们的男人、妇女、婴孩，和吃奶的都从 犹大 中剪除、不留一人呢？
7And now thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Why do you commit this great evil against your own souls, that there should die of you man and woman, child and suckling out of the midst of Juda, and no remnant should be left you:
8就是因你们手所做的，在所去寄居的 埃及 地向别神烧香惹我发怒，使你们被剪除，在天下万国中令人咒诅羞辱。
8In that you provoke me to wrath with the works of your hands, by sacrificing to other gods in the land of Egypt, into which you are come to dwell there: and that you should perish, and be a curse, and a reproach to all the nations of the earth?
9你们列祖的恶行， 犹大 列王和他们后妃的恶行，你们自己和你们妻子的恶行，就是在 犹大 地、 耶路撒冷 街上所行的，你们都忘了吗？
9Have you forgotten the evils of your fathers, and the evils of the kings of Juda, and the evils of their wives, and your evils, and the evils of your wives, that they have done in the land of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
10到如今还没有懊悔，没有惧怕，没有遵行我在你们和你们列祖面前所设立的法度律例。
10They are not cleansed even to this day: neither have they feared, nor walked in the law of the Lord, nor in my commandments, which I set before you and your fathers.
11「所以万军之耶和华— 以色列 的 神如此说：我必向你们变脸降灾，以致剪除 犹大 众人。
11Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will set my face upon you for evil: and I will destroy all Juda.
12那定意进入 埃及 地、在那里寄居的，就是所剩下的 犹大 人，我必使他们尽都灭绝，必在 埃及 地仆倒，必因刀剑饥荒灭绝；从最小的到至大的都必遭刀剑饥荒而死，以致令人辱骂、惊骇、咒诅、羞辱。
12And I will take the remnant of Juda that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt, and to dwell there: and they shall be all consumed in the land of Egypt: they shall fall by the sword, and by the famine: and they shall be consumed from the least even to the greatest, by the sword, and by the famine shall they die: and they shall be for an execration, and for a wonder, and for a curse, and for a reproach.
13我怎样用刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫刑罚 耶路撒冷 ，也必照样刑罚那些住在 埃及 地的 犹大 人；
13And I will visit them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have visited Jerusalem by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence.
14甚至那进入 埃及 地寄居的，就是所剩下的 犹大 人，都不得逃脱，也不得存留归回 犹大 地。他们心中甚想归回居住之地；除了逃脱的以外，一个都不能归回。」
14And there shall be none that shall escape, and remain of the remnant of the Jews that are gone to sojourn in the land of Egypt: and that shall return into the land of Juda, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: there shall none return but they that shall flee.
15那些住在 埃及 地 巴忒罗 知道自己妻子向别神烧香的，与旁边站立的众妇女，聚集成群，回答 耶利米 说：
15Then all the men that knew that their wives sacrificed to other gods: and all the women of whom there stood by a great multitude, and all the people of them that dwelt in the land of Egypt in Phatures, answered Jeremias, saying:
16「论到你奉耶和华的名向我们所说的话，我们必不听从。
16As for the word which thou hast spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not hearken to thee:
17我们定要成就我们口中所出的一切话，向天后烧香、浇奠祭，按着我们与我们列祖、君王、首领在 犹大 的城邑中和 耶路撒冷 的街市上素常所行的一样；因为那时我们吃饱饭、享福乐，并不见灾祸。
17But we will certainly do every word that shall proceed out of our own mouth, to sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we and our fathers have done, our kings, and our princes in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and we were filled with bread, and it was well with us, and we saw no evil.
18自从我们停止向天后烧香、浇奠祭，我们倒缺乏一切，又因刀剑饥荒灭绝。」
18But since we left off to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword, and by famine.
19妇女说：「我们向天后烧香、浇奠祭，做天后像的饼供奉她，向她浇奠祭，是外乎我们的丈夫吗？」
19And if we offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and pour out drink offerings to her: did we make cakes to worship her, to pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?
20耶利米 对一切那样回答他的男人妇女说：
20And Jeremias spoke to all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying:
21「你们与你们列祖、君王、首领，并国内的百姓，在 犹大 城邑中和 耶路撒冷 街市上所烧的香，耶和华岂不记念，心中岂不思想吗？
21Was it not the sacrifice that you offered in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and Sour fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, which the Lord hath remembered, and hath it not entered into his heart?
22耶和华因你们所作的恶、所行可憎的事，不能再容忍，所以你们的地荒凉，令人惊骇咒诅，无人居住，正如今日一样。
22So that the Lord could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed: therefore your land is become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.
23你们烧香，得罪耶和华，没有听从他的话，没有遵行他的律法、条例、法度，所以你们遭遇这灾祸，正如今日一样。」
23Because you have sacrificed to idols, and have sinned against the Lord: and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord, and have not walked in his law, and in his commandments, and in his testimonies: therefore are these evils come upon you, as at this day.
24耶利米 又对众民和众妇女说：「你们在 埃及 地的一切 犹大 人当听耶和华的话。
24And Jeremias said to all the people, and to all the women: Hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt:
25万军之耶和华— 以色列 的 神如此说：你们和你们的妻都口中说、手里做，说：『我们定要偿还所许的愿，向天后烧香、浇奠祭。』现在你们只管坚定所许的愿而偿还吧！
25Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have spoken with your mouth, and fulfilled with your hands, saying: Let us perform our vows which we have made, to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her: you have fulfilled your vows, and have performed them indeed.
26所以你们住在 埃及 地的一切 犹大 人当听耶和华的话。耶和华说：我指着我的大名起誓，在 埃及 全地，我的名不再被 犹大 一个人的口称呼说：『我指着主—永生的耶和华起誓。』
26Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord: that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Juda, in the land of Egypt, saying: The Lord God liveth.
27我向他们留意降祸不降福；在 埃及 地的一切 犹大 人必因刀剑、饥荒所灭，直到灭尽。
27Behold I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Juda that are in the land of Egypt, shall be consumed, by the sword, and by famine, till there be an end of them.
28脱离刀剑、从 埃及 地归回 犹大 地的人数很少；那进入 埃及 地要在那里寄居的，就是所剩下的 犹大 人，必知道是谁的话立得住，是我的话呢？是他们的话呢？
28And a few men that shall flee from the sword, shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Juda: and all the remnant of Juda that are gone into the land of Egypt to dwell there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.
29耶和华说：我在这地方刑罚你们，必有预兆，使你们知道我降祸与你们的话必要立得住。
29And this shall be a sign to you, saith the Lord, that I will punish you in this place: that you may know that my words shall be accomplished indeed against you for evil.
30耶和华如此说：我必将 埃及 王法老 合弗拉 交在他仇敌和寻索其命的人手中，像我将 犹大 王 西底家 交在他仇敌和寻索其命的 巴比伦 王 尼布甲尼撒 手中一样。」
30Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver Pharao Ephree king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life: as I delivered Sedecias king of Juda into the hand of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon his enemy, and that sought his life.
