Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Then all the captains of the warriors, and Johanan the son of Caree, and Jezonias the son of Osaias, and the rest of the people from the least to the greatest came near:
1众军长和 加利亚 的儿子 约哈难 ，并 何沙雅 的儿子 耶撒尼亚 以及众百姓，从最小的到至大的都进前来，
2And they said to Jeremias the prophet: Let our supplication fall before thee: and pray thou for us to the Lord thy God for all this remnant, for we are left but a few of many, as thy eyes do behold us.
2对先知 耶利米 说：「求你准我们在你面前祈求，为我们这剩下的人祷告耶和华—你的 神。我们本来众多，现在剩下的极少，这是你亲眼所见的。
3And let the Lord thy God shew us the way by which we may walk, and the thing that we must do.
3愿耶和华—你的 神指示我们所当走的路，所当做的事。」
4And Jeremias the prophet said to them: I have heard you: behold I will pray to the Lord your God according to your words: and whatsoever thing he shall answer me, I will declare it to you: and I will hide nothing from you.
4先知 耶利米 对他们说：「我已经听见你们了，我必照着你们的话祷告耶和华—你们的 神。耶和华无论回答什么，我必都告诉你们，毫不隐瞒。」
5And they said to Jeremias: The Lord be witness between us of truth and faithfulness, if we do not according to every thing for which the Lord thy God shall send thee to us.
5于是他们对 耶利米 说：「我们若不照耶和华—你的 神差遣你来说的一切话行，愿耶和华在我们中间作真实诚信的见证。
6Whether it be good or evil, we will obey the voice of the Lord our God, to whom me send thee: that it may be well with us when we shall hearken to the voice of the Lord our God.
6我们现在请你到耶和华—我们的 神面前，他说的无论是好是歹，我们都必听从；我们听从耶和华—我们 神的话，就可以得福。」
7Now after ten days, the word of the Lord came to Jeremias.
7过了十天，耶和华的话临到 耶利米 。
8And he called Johanan the son of Caree, and all the captains of the fighting men that were with him, and all the people from the least to the greatest.
8他就将 加利亚 的儿子 约哈难 和同着他的众军长，并众百姓，从最小的到至大的都叫了来，
9And he said to them: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel, to whom you sent me, to present your supplications before him:
9对他们说：「耶和华— 以色列 的 神，就是你们请我在他面前为你们祈求的 主 ，如此说：
10If you will be quiet and remain in this land, I will build you up, and not pull you down: I will plane you, and not pluck you up: for now I am appeased for the evil that I have done to you.
10『你们若仍住在这地，我就建立你们，必不拆毁，栽植你们，并不拔出，因我为降与你们的灾祸后悔了。
11Fear not because of the king of Babylon, of whom you are greatly afraid: fear him not, saith the Lord: for I am with you, to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
11不要怕你们所怕的 巴比伦 王。』」耶和华说：「不要怕他！因为我与你们同在，要拯救你们脱离他的手。
12And I will shew mercies to you, and will take pity on you, and will cause you to dwell in your own land.
12我也要使他发怜悯，好怜悯你们，叫你们归回本地。
13But if you say: We will not dwell in this land, neither will we hearken to the voice of the Lord our God,
13倘若你们说：『我们不住在这地』，以致不听从耶和华—你们 神的话，
14Saying: No, but we will go into the land of Egypt: where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor suffer hunger: and there we will dwell.
14说：『我们不住这地，却要进入 埃及 地，在那里看不见争战，听不见角声，也不致无食饥饿。我们必住在那里。』
15For this now hear the word of the Lord, ye remnant of Juda: Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: If you set your faces to go into Egypt, and enter in to dwell there:
15你们所剩下的 犹大 人哪，现在要听耶和华的话。万军之耶和华— 以色列 的 神如此说：『你们若定意要进入 埃及 ，在那里寄居，
16The sword which you fear, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt: and the famine, whereof you are afraid, shall cleave to you in Egypt, and there you shall die.
16你们所惧怕的刀剑在 埃及 地必追上你们！你们所惧怕的饥荒在 埃及 要紧紧地跟随你们！你们必死在那里！
17And all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt, to dwell there, shall die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence: none of them shall remain, nor escape from the face of the evil that I will bring upon them.
17凡定意要进入 埃及 在那里寄居的必遭刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫而死，无一人存留，逃脱我所降与他们的灾祸。』
18For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: As my anger and my indignation hath been kindled against the inhabitants of Jerusalem: so shall my indignation be kindled against you, when you shall enter into Egypt, and you shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach: and you shall see this place no more.
18「万军之耶和华— 以色列 的 神如此说：『我怎样将我的怒气和忿怒倾在 耶路撒冷 的居民身上，你们进入 埃及 的时候，我也必照样将我的忿怒倾在你们身上，以致你们令人辱骂、惊骇、咒诅、羞辱，你们不得再见这地方。』
19This is the word of the Lord concerning you, O ye remnant of Juda: Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have adjured you this day.
19所剩下的 犹大 人哪，耶和华论到你们说：『不要进入 埃及 去。』你们要确实地知道我今日警教你们了。
20For you have deceived your own souls: for you sent me to the Lord our God, saying: Pray for us to the Lord our God, and according to all that the Lord our God shall say to thee, so declare unto us, and we will do it.
20你们行诡诈自害；因为你们请我到耶和华—你们的 神那里，说：『求你为我们祷告耶和华—我们 神，照耶和华—我们的 神一切所说的告诉我们，我们就必遵行。』
21And now I have declared it to you this day, and; you have not obeyed the voice of the Lord your God, with regard to all the things for which he hath sent me to you.
21我今日将这话告诉你们，耶和华—你们的 神为你们的事差遣我到你们那里说的，你们却一样没有听从。
22Now therefore know certainly that you shall die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence in the place to which you desire to go to dwell there.
22现在你们要确实地知道，你们在所要去寄居之地必遭刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫而死。」
