耶利米書 17
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
World English Bible
1猶大 的罪是用鐵筆、用金鋼鑽記錄的,銘刻在他們的心版上和壇角上。
1“The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond. It is engraved on the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of your altars.
2他們的兒女記念他們高岡上、青翠樹旁的壇和木偶。
2Even their children remember their altars and their Asherah poles by the green trees on the high hills.
3我田野的山哪,我必因你在四境之內所犯的罪,把你的貨物、財寶,並邱壇當掠物交給 仇敵 ;
3My mountain in the field, I will give your substance and all your treasures for a plunder, and your high places, because of sin, throughout all your borders.
4並且你因自己 的罪 必失去我所賜給你的產業。我也必使你在你所不認識的地上服事你的仇敵;因為你使我怒中起火,直燒到永遠。
4You, even of yourself, will discontinue from your heritage that I gave you. I will cause you to serve your enemies in the land which you don’t know, for you have kindled a fire in my anger which will burn forever.”
5耶和華如此說: 倚靠人血肉的膀臂, 心中離棄耶和華的, 那人有禍了!
5The LORD says: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man, relies on strength of flesh, and whose heart departs from the LORD.
6因他必像沙漠的杜松, 不見福樂來到, 卻要住曠野乾旱之處, 無人居住的鹼地。
6For he will be like a bush in the desert, and will not see when good comes, but will inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, an uninhabited salt land.
7倚靠耶和華、以耶和華為可靠的, 那人有福了!
7“Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose confidence is in the LORD.
8他必像樹栽於水旁, 在河邊扎根, 炎熱來到,並不懼怕, 葉子仍必青翠, 在乾旱之年毫無掛慮, 而且結果不止。
8For he will be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes, but its leaf will be green, and will not be concerned in the year of drought. It won’t cease from yielding fruit.
9人心比萬物都詭詐, 壞到極處, 誰能識透呢?
9The heart is deceitful above all things and it is exceedingly corrupt. Who can know it?
10我-耶和華是鑒察人心、試驗人肺腑的, 要照各人所行的和他做事的結果報應他。
10“I, the LORD, search the mind. I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.”
11那不按正道得財的, 好像鷓鴣菢不是自己下的 蛋 ; 到了中年,那財都必離開他, 他終久成為愚頑人。
11As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right. In the middle of his days, they will leave him. At his end, he will be a fool.
12我們的聖所是榮耀的寶座, 從太初 安置 在高處。
12A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.
13耶和華- 以色列 的盼望啊, 凡離棄你的必致蒙羞。 耶和華說 :離開我的, 他們的 名字 必寫在土裏, 因為他們離棄我這活水的泉源。
13LORD, the hope of Israel, all who forsake you will be disappointed. Those who depart from me will be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the spring of living waters.
14耶和華啊,求你醫治我,我便痊癒, 拯救我,我便得救; 因你是我所讚美的。
14Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed. Save me, and I will be saved; for you are my praise.
15他們對我說:耶和華的話在哪裏呢? 叫這話應驗吧!
15Behold, they ask me, “Where is the LORD’s word? Let it be fulfilled now.”
16至於我,那跟從你作牧人 的職分 , 我並沒有急忙離棄, 也沒有想那災殃的日子; 這是你知道的。 我口中所出的言語都在你面前。
16As for me, I have not hurried from being a shepherd after you. I haven’t desired the woeful day. You know. That which came out of my lips was before your face.
17不要使我因你驚恐; 當災禍的日子,你是我的避難所。
17Don’t be a terror to me. You are my refuge in the day of evil.
18願那些逼迫我的蒙羞, 卻不要使我蒙羞; 使他們驚惶, 卻不要使我驚惶; 使災禍的日子臨到他們, 以加倍的毀壞毀壞他們。
18Let them be disappointed who persecute me, but don’t let me be disappointed. Let them be dismayed, but don’t let me be dismayed. Bring on them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
19耶和華對我如此說:「你去站在平民的門口,就是 猶大 君王出入的門,又站在 耶路撒冷 的各門口,
19The LORD said this to me: “Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, through which the kings of Judah come in and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.
20對他們說:『你們這 猶大 君王和 猶大 眾人,並 耶路撒冷 的一切居民,凡從這些門進入的都當聽耶和華的話。
20Tell them, ‘Hear the LORD’s word, you kings of Judah, all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
21耶和華如此說:你們要謹慎,不要在安息日擔甚麼擔子進入 耶路撒冷 的各門;
21The LORD says, “Be careful, and bear no burden on the Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem.
22也不要在安息日從家中擔出擔子去。無論何工都不可做,只要以安息日為聖日,正如我所吩咐你們列祖的。』
22Don’t carry a burden out of your houses on the Sabbath day. Don’t do any work, but make the Sabbath day holy, as I commanded your fathers.
23他們卻不聽從,不側耳而聽,竟硬着頸項不聽,不受教訓。」
23But they didn’t listen. They didn’t turn their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.
24耶和華說:「你們若留意聽從我,在安息日不擔甚麼擔子進入這城的各門,只以安息日為聖日,在那日無論何工都不做;
24It will happen, if you diligently listen to me,” says the LORD, “to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, but to make the Sabbath day holy, to do no work therein;
25那時就有坐 大衛 寶座的君王和首領,他們與 猶大 人,並 耶路撒冷 的居民,或坐車,或騎馬,進入這城的各門,而且這城必存到永遠。
25then there will enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on David’s throne, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their princes, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city will remain forever.
26也必有人從 猶大 城邑和 耶路撒冷 四圍的各處,從 便雅憫 地、高原、山地,並南地而來,都帶燔祭、 平安祭 、素祭,和乳香,並感謝 祭 ,到耶和華的殿去。
26They will come from the cities of Judah, and from the places around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, from the lowland, from the hill country, and from the South, bringing burnt offerings, sacrifices, meal offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving to the LORD’s house.
27你們若不聽從我,不以安息日為聖日,仍在安息日擔擔子,進入 耶路撒冷 的各門,我必在各門中點火;這火也必燒毀 耶路撒冷 的宮殿,不能熄滅。」
27But if you will not listen to me to make the Sabbath day holy, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in its gates, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem. It will not be quenched.”’”
