耶利米書 15
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1耶和華對我說：「雖有 摩西 和 撒母耳 站在我面前 代求 ，我的心也不顧惜這百姓。你將他們從我眼前趕出，叫他們去吧！
1And the Lord said to me: If Moses and Samuel shall stand before me, my soul is not towards this people: cast them out from my sight, and let them go forth.
2他們問你說：『我們往哪裏去呢？』你便告訴他們，耶和華如此說： 定為死亡的，必致死亡； 定為刀殺的，必交刀殺； 定為饑荒的，必遭饑荒； 定為擄掠的，必被擄掠。」
2And if they shall say unto thee: Whither shall we go forth? thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord: Such as are for death, to death: and such as are to the sword, to the sword: and such as are for famine, to famine: and such as are to captivity, to captivity.
3耶和華說：「我命定四樣害他們，就是刀劍殺戮、狗類撕裂、空中的飛鳥，和地上的野獸吞吃毀滅；
3And I will visit them with four kinds, saith the Lord: The sword to kill, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the air, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.
4又必使他們在天下萬國中拋來拋去，都因 猶大 王 希西家 的兒子 瑪拿西 在 耶路撒冷 所行的事。」
4And I will give them up to the rage of all the kingdoms of the earth: because of Manasses the son of Ezechias the king of Juda, for all that he did in Jerusalem.
5耶路撒冷 啊，誰可憐你呢？ 誰為你悲傷呢？ 誰轉身問你的安呢？
5For who shall have pity on thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go to pray for thy peace?
6耶和華說：你棄絕了我， 轉身退後； 因此我伸手攻擊你，毀壞你。 我後悔甚不耐煩。
6Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord, thou art gone backward: and I will stretch out my hand against thee, and I will destroy thee: I am weary of entreating thee.
7我在境內各城門口， 用簸箕簸了我的百姓， 使他們喪掉兒女。 我毀滅他們， 他們仍不轉離所行的道。
7And I will scatter them with a fan in the gates of the land: I have killed and destroyed my people, and yet they are not returned form their ways.
8他們的寡婦在我面前比海沙更多； 我使滅命的午間來， 攻擊少年人的母親， 使痛苦驚嚇忽然臨到她身上。
8Their widows are multiplied unto me above the sand of the sea: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young man a spoiler at noonday: I have cast a terror on a sudden upon the cities.
9生過七子的婦人力衰氣絕； 尚在白晝，日頭忽落； 她抱愧蒙羞。 其餘的人， 我必在他們敵人跟前，交與刀劍。 這是耶和華說的。
9She that hath borne seven is become weak, her soul hath fainted away: her sun is gone down, while it was yet day: she is confounded, and ashamed: and the residue of them I will give up to the sword in the sight of their enemies, saith the Lord.
10我的母親哪，我有禍了！因你生我作為遍地相爭相競的人。我素來沒有借貸與人，人也沒有借貸與我，人人 卻 都咒罵我。
10Woe is me, my mother: why hast thou borne me a man of strife, a man of contention to all the earth? I have not lent on usury, neither hath any man lent to me on usury: yet all curse me.
11耶和華說：「我必要堅固你，使你得好處。災禍苦難臨到的時候，我必要使仇敵央求你。（
11The Lord saith to me: Assuredly it shall be well with thy remnant, assuredly I shall help thee in the time of affliction, and in the time of tribulation against the enemy.
12人豈能將銅與鐵，就是北方的鐵折斷呢？）
12Shall iron be allied with the iron from the north, and the brass?
13「我必因你在四境之內所犯的一切罪，把你的貨物財寶當掠物，白白地交給 仇敵 。
13Thy riches and thy treasures I will give unto spoil for nothing, because of all thy sins, even in all thy borders.
14我也必使仇敵帶 這掠物 到你所不認識的地去，因我怒中起的火要將你們焚燒。」
14And I will bring thy enemies out of a land, which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in my rage, it shall burn upon you.
15耶和華啊，你是知道的； 求你記念我，眷顧我， 向逼迫我的人為我報仇； 不要向他們忍怒取我 的命 ， 要知道我為你的緣故受了凌辱。
15O Lord, thou knowest, remember me, and visit me, and defend me from them that persecute me, do not defend me in thy patience: know that for thy sake I have sufferred reproach.
16耶和華－萬軍之上帝啊， 我得着你的言語就 當食物 吃了； 你的言語是我心中的歡喜快樂， 因我是稱為你名下的人。
16Thy words were found, and I did eat them, and thy word was to me a joy and gladness of my heart: for thy name is called upon me, O Lord God of hosts.
17我沒有坐在宴樂人的會中， 也沒有歡樂； 我因你的感動獨自靜坐， 因你使我滿心憤恨。
17I sat not in the assembly of jesters, nor did I make a boast of the presence of thy hand: I sat alone, because thou hast filled me with threats.
18我的痛苦為何長久不止呢？ 我的傷痕為何無法醫治、不能痊癒呢？ 難道你待我有詭詐，像流乾的河道嗎？
18Why is my sorrow become perpetual, and my wound desperate so as to refuse to be healed? it is become to me as the falsehood of deceitful waters that cannot be trusted.
19耶和華如此說：你若歸回， 我就將你再帶來， 使你站在我面前； 你若將寶貴的和下賤的分別出來， 你就可以當作我的口。 他們必歸向你， 你卻不可歸向他們。
19Therefore thus saith the Lord: If thou wilt be converted, I will convert thee, and thou shalt stand before my face; and if thou wilt separate the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: they shall be turned to thee, and thou shalt not be turned to them.
20我必使你向這百姓成為堅固的銅牆； 他們必攻擊你，卻不能勝你； 因我與你同在，要拯救你，搭救你。 這是耶和華說的。
20And I will make thee to this people as a strong wall of brass: and they shall fight against thee, and shall not prevail: for I am with thee to save thee, and to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
21我必搭救你脫離惡人的手， 救贖你脫離強暴人的手。
21And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the mighty.
