Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Hear ye this word, which I take up concerning you for a lamentation. The house of Israel is fallen, and it shall rise no more.
1以色列 家啊，要聽我為你們所作的哀歌：
2The virgin of Israel is cast down upon her land, there is none to raise her up.
2以色列 民跌倒，不得再起； 躺在地上，無人攙扶。
3For thus saith the Lord God: The city, out of which came forth a thousand, there shall be left in it a hundred: and out of which there came a hundred, there shall be left in it ten, in the house of Israel.
3主耶和華如此說： 以色列 家的城發出一千 兵 的，只剩一百； 發出一百的，只剩十個。
4For thus saith the Lord to the house of Israel: Seek ye me, and you shall live.
4耶和華向 以色列 家如此說： 你們要尋求我，就必存活。
5But seek not Bethel, and go not into Galgal, neither shall you pass over to Bersabee: for Galgal shall go into captivity, and Bethel shall be unprofitable.
5不要往 伯特利 尋求， 不要進入 吉甲 ， 不要過到 別是巴 ； 因為 吉甲 必被擄掠， 伯特利 也必歸於無有。
6Seek ye the Lord, and live: lest the house of Joseph be burnt with fire, and it shall devour, and there shall be none to quench Bethel.
6要尋求耶和華，就必存活， 免得他在 約瑟 家像火發出， 在 伯特利 焚燒，無人撲滅。
7You that turn judgment into wormwood, and forsake justice in the land,
7你們這使公平變為茵蔯、 將公義丟棄於地的，
8Seek him that maketh Arcturus, and Orion, and that turneth darkness into morning, and that changeth day into night: that calleth the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name.
8要 尋求 那造昴星和參星， 使死蔭變為晨光， 使白日變為黑夜， 命海水來澆在地上的－ 耶和華是他的名；
9He that with a smile bringeth destruction upon the strong, and waste upon the mighty.
9他使力強的忽遭滅亡， 以致保障遭遇毀壞。
10They have hated him that rebuketh in the gate: and have abhorred him that speaketh perfectly.
10你們怨恨那在城門口責備人的， 憎惡那說正直話的。
11Therefore because you robbed the poor, and took the choice prey from him: you shall build houses with square stone, and shall not dwell in them: you shall plant most delightful vineyards, and shall not drink the wine of them.
11你們踐踏貧民， 向他們勒索麥子； 你們用鑿過的石頭建造房屋， 卻不得住在其內； 栽種美好的葡萄園， 卻不得喝所出的酒。
12Because I know your manifold crimes, and your grievous sins: enemies of the just, taking bribes, and oppressing the poor in the gate.
12我知道你們的罪過何等多， 你們的罪惡何等大。 你們苦待義人，收受賄賂，在城門口屈枉窮乏人。
13Therefore the prudent shall keep silence at that time, for it is an evil time.
13所以通達人見這樣的時勢必靜默不言， 因為時勢真惡。
14Seek ye good, and not evil, that you may live: and the Lord the God of hosts will be with you, as you have said.
14你們要求善， 不要求惡，就必存活。 這樣，耶和華－萬軍之上帝 必照你們所說的與你們同在。
15Hate evil, and love good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be the Lord the God of hosts may have mercy on the remnant of Joseph.
15要惡惡好善， 在城門口秉公行義； 或者耶和華－萬軍之上帝向 約瑟 的餘民施恩。
16Therefore thus saith the Lord the God of hosts the sovereign Lord: In every street there shall be wailing: and in all places that are without, they shall say: Alas, alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skillful in lamentation to lament.
16主耶和華－萬軍之上帝如此說： 在一切寬闊處必有哀號的聲音； 在各街市上必有人說： 哀哉！哀哉！ 又必叫農夫來哭號， 叫善唱哀歌的來舉哀。
17And in all vineyards there shall be wailing: because I will pass through in the midst of thee, saith the Lord.
17在各葡萄園必有哀號的聲音， 因為我必從你中間經過。 這是耶和華說的。
18Woe to them that desire the day of the Lord: to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.
18想望耶和華日子來到的有禍了！ 你們為何想望耶和華的日子呢？ 那日黑暗沒有光明，
19As if a man should flee from the face of a lion, and a bear should meet him: or enter into the house, and lean with his hand upon the wall, and a serpent should bite him.
19景況好像人躲避獅子又遇見熊， 或是進房屋以手靠牆，就被蛇咬。
20Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light: and obscurity, and no brightness in it?
20耶和華的日子不是黑暗沒有光明嗎？ 不是幽暗毫無光輝嗎？
21I hate, and have rejected your festivities: and I will not receive the odour of your assemblies.
21我厭惡你們的節期， 也不喜悅你們的嚴肅會。
22And if you offer me holocausts, and your gifts, I will not receive them: neither will I regard the vows of your fat beasts.
22你們雖然向我獻燔祭和素祭， 我卻不悅納， 也不顧你們用肥畜獻的平安祭；
23Take away from me the tumult of thy songs: and I will not hear the canticles of thy harp.
23要使你們歌唱的聲音遠離我， 因為我不聽你們彈琴的響聲。
24But judgment shall be revealed as water, and justice as a mighty torrent.
24惟願公平如大水滾滾， 使公義如江河滔滔。
25Did you offer victims and sacrifices to me in the desert for forty years, O house of Israel?
25「 以色列 家啊，你們在曠野四十年，豈是將祭物和供物獻給我呢？
26But you carried a tabernacle for your Moloch, and the image of your idols, the star of your god, which you made to yourselves.
26你們抬着為自己所造之 摩洛 的帳幕和偶像的龕，並你們的神星。
27And I will cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the Lord, the God of hosts is his name.
27所以我要把你們擄到 大馬士革 以外。」這是耶和華－名為萬軍之上帝說的。
