耶利米書 22
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1耶和華如此說：「你下到 猶大 王的宮中，在那裏說這話，
1Thus saith the Lord: Go down to the house of the king of Juda, and there thou shalt speak this word,
2說：『坐 大衛 寶座的 猶大 王啊，你和你的臣僕，並進入城門的百姓，都當聽耶和華的話。
2And thou shalt say: Hear the word of the Lord, O king of Juda, that sittest upon the throne of David: thou and thy servants, and thy people, who enter in by these gates.
3耶和華如此說：你們要施行公平和公義，拯救被搶奪的脫離欺壓人的手，不可虧負寄居的和孤兒寡婦，不可以強暴待他們，在這地方也不可流無辜人的血。
3Thus saith the Lord: Execute judgement and justice, and deliver him that is oppressed out of the hand of the oppressor: and afflict not the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, nor oppress them unjustly: and shed not innocent blood in this place.
4你們若認真行這事，就必有坐 大衛 寶座的君王和他的臣僕百姓，或坐車或騎馬，從這城的各門進入。
4For if you will do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house, kings of the race of David sitting upon his throne, and riding in chariots and on horses, they and their servants, and their people.
5你們若不聽這些話，耶和華說：我指着自己起誓，這城必變為荒場。』
5But if you will not hearken to these words: I swear by myself, saith the Lord, that this house shall become a desolation.
6耶和華論到 猶大 王的家如此說： 我看你如 基列 ， 如 黎巴嫩 頂； 然而，我必使你變為曠野， 為無人居住的城邑。
6For thus saith the Lord to the house of the king of Juda: Thou art to me Galaad the head of Libanus: yet surely I will make thee a wilderness, and cities not habitable.
7我要預備行毀滅的人， 各拿器械攻擊你； 他們要砍下你佳美的香柏樹， 扔在火中。
7And I will prepare against thee the destroyer and his weapons: and they shall cut down thy chosen cedars, and shall cast them headlong into the fire.
8「許多國的民要經過這城，各人對鄰舍說：『耶和華為何向這大城如此行呢？』
8And many nations shall pass by this city: and they shall say every man to his neighbor: Why hath the Lord done so to this great city?
9他們必回答說：『是因離棄了耶和華－他們上帝的約，事奉敬拜別神。』」
9And they shall answer: Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God, and have adored strange gods, and served them.
10不要為死人哭號； 不要為他悲傷， 卻要為離家出外的人大大哭號； 因為他不得再回來， 也不得再見他的本國。
10Weep not for him that is dead, nor bemoan him with your tears: lament him that goeth away, for he shall return no more, nor see his native country.
11因為耶和華論到從這地方出去的 猶大 王 約西亞 的兒子 沙龍 ，就是接續他父親 約西亞 作王的，這樣說：「他必不得再回到這裏來，
11For thus saith the Lord to Sellum the son of Josias the king of Juda, who reigned instead of his father, who went forth out of this place: He shall return hither no more:
12卻要死在被擄去的地方，必不得再見這地。」
12But in the place, to which I have removed him, there shall he die, and he shall not see this land any more.
13那行不義蓋房、行不公造樓、 白白使用人的手工不給工價的有禍了！
13Woe to him that buildeth up his house by injustice, and his chambers not in judgement: that will oppress his friend without cause, and will not pay him his wages.
14他說：我要為自己蓋廣大的房、寬敞的樓， 為自己開窗戶。 這樓房的護牆板是香柏木的， 樓房是丹色油漆的。
14Who saith: I will build me a wide house and large chambers: who openeth to himself windows, and maketh roofs of cedar, and painteth them with vermilion.
15難道你作王是在乎 造 香柏木 樓房 爭勝嗎？ 你的父親豈不是也吃也喝、 也施行公平和公義嗎？ 那時他得了福樂。
15Shalt thou reign, because thou comparest thyself to the cedar? did not thy father eat and drink, and do judgment and justice, and it was then well with him?
16他為困苦和窮乏人伸冤， 那時就得了福樂。 認識我不在乎此嗎？ 這是耶和華說的。
16He judged the cause of the poor and needy for his own good: was it not therefore because he knew me, saith the Lord?
17惟有你的眼和你的心專顧貪婪， 流無辜人的血， 行欺壓和強暴。
17But thy eyes and thy heart are set upon covetousness, and upon shedding innocent blood, and upon oppression, and running after evil works.
18所以，耶和華論到 猶大 王 約西亞 的兒子 約雅敬 如此說： 人必不為他舉哀 說 ： 哀哉！我的哥哥； 或說：哀哉！我的姊姊； 也不為他舉哀 說 ： 哀哉！我的主； 或說：哀哉！我主的榮華。
18Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda: They shall not mourn for him, Alas, my brother, and Alas, sister: they shall not lament for him, Alas, my Lord, or, Alas, the noble one.
19他被埋葬，好像埋驢一樣， 要拉出去扔在 耶路撒冷 的城門之外。
19He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, rotten and cast forth without the gates of Jerusalem.
20你要上 黎巴嫩 哀號， 在 巴珊 揚聲， 從 亞巴琳 哀號， 因為你所親愛的都毀滅了。
20Go up to Libanus, and cry: and lift up thy voice in Basan, and cry to them that pass by, for all thy lovers are destroyed.
21你興盛的時候，我對你說話； 你卻說：我不聽。 你自幼年以來總是這樣， 不聽從我的話。
21I spoke to thee in thy properity: and thou saidst: I will not hear: this hath been thy way from thy youth, because thou hast not heard my voice.
22你的牧人要被風吞吃， 你所親愛的必被擄去； 那時你必因你一切的惡抱愧蒙羞。
22The wind shall feed all thy pastors, and thy lovers shall go into captivity: and then shalt thou be confounded, and ashamed of all thy wickedness.
23你這住 黎巴嫩 、在香柏樹上搭窩的， 有痛苦臨到你， 好像疼痛臨到產難的婦人， 那時你何等可憐！
23Thou that sittest in Libanus, and makest thy nest in the cedars, how hast thou mourned when sorrows came upon thee, as the pains of a woman in labour?
24耶和華說：「 猶大 王 約雅敬 的兒子 哥尼雅 ，雖是我右手上帶印的戒指，我憑我的永生起誓，也必將你從其上摘下來，
24As I live, saith the Lord, if Jechonias the son of Joakim the king of Juda were a ring on my right hand, I would pluck him thence.
25並且我必將你交給尋索你命的人和你所懼怕的人手中，就是 巴比倫 王 尼布甲尼撒 和 迦勒底 人的手中。
25And I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life, and into the hand of them whose face thou fearest, and into the hand of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26我也必將你和生你的母親趕到別國，並不是你們生的地方；你們必死在那裏，
26And I will send thee, and thy mother that bore thee, into a strange country, in which you were not born, and there you shall die:
27但心中甚想歸回之地，必不得歸回。」
27And they shall not return into the land, whereunto they lift up their mind to return thither.
28哥尼雅 這人是被輕看、破壞的器皿嗎？ 是無人喜愛的器皿嗎？ 他和他的後裔為何被趕到不認識之地呢？
28Is this man Jechonias an earthen and a broken vessel? is he a vessel wherein there is no pleasure? why are they cast out, he and his seed, and are cast into a land which they know not?
29地啊，地啊，地啊，當聽耶和華的話！
29O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the Lord.
30耶和華如此說： 要寫明這人算為無子， 是平生不得亨通的； 因為他後裔中再無一人得亨通， 能坐在 大衛 的寶座上治理 猶大 。
30Thus saith the Lord: Write this man barren, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for there shall not be a man of his seed that shall sit upon the throne of David, and have power any more in Juda.
