Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will raise up as it were a pestilential wind against Babylon and against the inhabitants thereof, who have lifted up their heart against me.
1耶和华如此说： 我必使毁灭的风刮起， 攻击 巴比伦 和住在 立加米 的人。
2And I will send to Babylon fanners, and they shall fan her, and shall destroy her land: for they are come upon her on every side in the day of her affliction.
2我要打发外邦人来到 巴比伦 ， 簸扬她，使她的地空虚。 在她遭祸的日子， 他们要周围攻击她。
3Let not him that bendeth, bend his bow, and let not, him go up that is armed with a coat of mail: spare not her young men, destroy all her army.
3拉弓的，要向拉弓的和贯甲挺身的射箭。 不要怜惜她的少年人； 要灭尽她的全军。
4And the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and the wounded in the regions thereof.
4他们必在 迦勒底 人之地被杀仆倒， 在 巴比伦 的街上被刺透。
5For Israel and Juda have not been forsaken by their God the Lord of hosts: but their land hath been filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.
5以色列 和 犹大 虽然境内充满违背 以色列 圣者的罪， 却没有被他的 神—万军之耶和华丢弃。
6Flee ye from the midst of Babylon, and let every one save his own life: be not silent upon her iniquity: for it is the time of revenge from the Lord, he will I render unto her what she hath deserved.
6你们要从 巴比伦 中逃奔， 各救自己的性命！ 不要陷在她的罪孽中一同灭亡； 因为这是耶和华报仇的时候， 他必向 巴比伦 施行报应。
7Babylon hath been a golden cup in the hand of the Lord, that made all the earth drunk: the nations have drunk of her wine, and therefore they have staggered.
7巴比伦 素来是耶和华手中的金杯， 使天下沉醉； 万国喝了她的酒就颠狂了。
8Babylon is suddenly fallen, and destroyed: howl for her, take balm for her pain, if so she may be healed.
8巴比伦 忽然倾覆毁坏； 要为她哀号； 为止她的疼痛， 拿乳香或者可以治好。
9We would have cured Babylon, but she is not healed: let us forsake her, and let us go every man to his own land: because her judgment hath reached even to the heavens, and is lifted up to the clouds.
9我们想医治 巴比伦 ， 她却没有治好。 离开她吧！我们各人归回本国； 因为她受的审判通于上天，达到穹苍。
10The Lord hath brought forth our justices: Come, and let us declare in Sion the work of the Lord our God.
10耶和华已经彰显我们的公义。 来吧！我们可以在 锡安 报告耶和华—我们 神的作为。
11Sharpen the arrows, fill the quivers, the Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: and his mind is against Babylon to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple.
11你们要磨尖了箭头， 抓住盾牌。 耶和华定意攻击 巴比伦 ，将她毁灭，所以激动了 米底亚 君王的心；因这是耶和华报仇，就是为自己的殿报仇。
12Upon the walls of Babylon set up the standard, strengthen the watch: set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the Lord hath both purposed, and done all that he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.
12你们要竖立大旗， 攻击 巴比伦 的城墙； 要坚固了望台， 派定守望的设下埋伏； 因为耶和华指着 巴比伦 居民所说的话、 所定的意，他已经作成。
13O thou that dwellest upon many waters, rich in treasures, thy end is come for thy entire destruction.
13住在众水之上多有财宝的啊， 你的结局到了！ 你贪婪之量满了！
14The Lord of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying: I will fill thee with men as with locusts, and they shall lift up a joyful shout against thee.
14万军之耶和华指着自己起誓 说 ： 我必使 敌 人充满你，像蚂蚱一样； 他们必呐喊攻击你。
15He that made the earth by his power, that hath prepared the world by his wisdom, and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.
15耶和华用能力创造大地， 用智慧建立世界， 用聪明铺张穹苍。
16When he uttereth his voice the waters are multiplied in heaven: he lifteth up the clouds from the ends of the earth, he hath turned lightning into rain: and hath brought forth the wind out of his treasures.
16他一发声，空中便有多水激动； 他使云雾从地极上腾。 他造电随雨而闪， 从他府库中带出风来。
17Every man is become foolish by his knowledge: every founder is confounded by his idol, for what he hath cast is a lie, and there is no breath in them.
17各人都成了畜类，毫无知识。 各银匠都因他的偶像羞愧； 他所铸的偶像本是虚假的， 其中并无气息，
18They are vain works, and worthy to be laughed at, in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
18都是虚无的，是迷惑人的工作， 到追讨的时候，必被除灭。
19The portion of Jacob is not like them: for he that made all things he it is, and Israel is the sceptre of his inheritance: the Lord of hosts is his name.
19雅各 的分不像这些， 因他是造作万有的 主 ； 以色列 也是他产业的支派。 万军之耶和华是他的名。
20Thou dashest together for me the weapons of war, and with thee I will dash nations together, and with thee I will destroy kingdoms:
20你是我争战的斧子和打仗的兵器； 我要用你打碎列国， 用你毁灭列邦；
21And with thee I will break in pieces the horse, and his rider, and with thee I will break in pieces the chariot, and him that getteth up into it:
21用你打碎马和骑马的； 用你打碎战车和坐在其上的；
22And with thee I will break in pieces man and woman, and with thee I will break in pieces the old man and the child, and with thee I will break in pieces the young man and the virgin:
22用你打碎男人和女人； 用你打碎老年人和少年人； 用你打碎壮丁和处女；
23And with thee I will break in pieces the shepherd and his dock, and with thee I will break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen, and with thee I will break in pieces captains and rulers.
23用你打碎牧人和他的群畜； 用你打碎农夫和他一对 牛 ； 用你打碎省长和副省长。
24And I will render to Babylon, and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil, that they have done in Sion, before your eyes, saith the Lord.
24耶和华说：「我必在你们眼前报复 巴比伦 人和 迦勒底 居民在 锡安 所行的诸恶。」
25Behold I come against thee, thou destroying mountain, saith the Lord, which corruptest the whole earth: and I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.
25耶和华说： 你这行毁灭的山哪， 就是毁灭天下的山， 我与你反对。 我必向你伸手， 将你从山岩滚下去， 使你成为烧毁的山。
26And they shall not take of thee a stone for the corner, nor a stone for foundations, but thou shalt be destroyed for ever, saith the Lord.
26人必不从你那里取石头为房角石， 也不取石头为根基石； 你必永远荒凉。 这是耶和华说的。
27Set ye up a standard in the land: sound with the trumpet among the nations: prepare the nations against her: call together against her the kings of Ararat, Menni, and Ascenez: number Taphsar against her, bring the horse as the stinging locust.
27要在境内竖立大旗， 在各国中吹角， 使列国预备攻击 巴比伦 ， 将 亚拉腊 、 米尼 、 亚实基拿 各国招来攻击她； 又派军长来攻击她， 使马匹上来如蚂蚱，
28Prepare the nations against her, the kings of Media, their captains, and all their rulers, and all the land of their dominion.
28使列国和 米底亚 君王，与省长和副省长， 并他们所管全地之人，都预备攻击她。
29And the land shall be in a commotion, and shall be troubled: for the design of the Lord against Babylon shall awake, to make the land of Babylon desert and uninhabitable.
29地必震动而瘠苦； 因耶和华向 巴比伦 所定的旨意成立了， 使 巴比伦 之地荒凉，无人居住。
30The valiant men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they have dwelt in holds: their strength hath failed, and they are become as women: her dwelling places are burnt, her bars are broken.
30巴比伦 的勇士止息争战， 藏在坚垒之中。 他们的勇力衰尽，好像妇女一样。 巴比伦 的住处有火着起， 门闩都折断了。
31One running post shall meet another, and messenger shall meet messenger: to tell the king of Babylon that his city is taken from one end to the other:
31跑报的要彼此相遇， 送信的要互相迎接， 报告 巴比伦 王说： 城的四方被攻取了，
32And that the fords are taken, and the marshes are burnt with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.
32渡口被占据了， 苇塘被火烧了， 兵丁也惊慌了。
33For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon is like a thrashingfloor, this is the time of her thrashing: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.
33万军之耶和华— 以色列 的 神如此说： 巴比伦 城好像踹谷的禾场； 再过片时，收割她的时候就到了。
34Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon hath eaten me up, he hath devoured me: he hath made me as an empty vessel: he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicate meats, and he hath cast me out.
34以色列 人说： 巴比伦 王 尼布甲尼撒 吞灭我，压碎我， 使我成为空虚的器皿。 他像大鱼将我吞下， 用我的美物充满他的肚腹， 又将我赶出去。
35The wrong done to me, and my flesh be upon Babylon, saith the habitation of Sion: and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, saith Jerusalem.
35锡安 的居民要说： 巴比伦 以强暴待我， 损害我的身体， 愿这罪归给她。 耶路撒冷 人要说： 愿流我们血的罪归到 迦勒底 的居民。
36Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will judge thy cause, and will take vengeance for thee, and I will make her sea desolate, and will dry up her spring.
36所以，耶和华如此说： 我必为你伸冤，为你报仇； 我必使 巴比伦 的海枯竭，使她的泉源干涸。
37And Babylon shall be reduced to heaps, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment and a hissing, because there is no inhabitant.
37巴比伦 必成为乱堆，为野狗的住处， 令人惊骇、嗤笑， 并且无人居住。
38They shall roar together like lions, they shall shake their manes like young lions.
38他们要像少壮狮子咆哮， 像小狮子吼叫。
39In their heat I will set them drink: and I will make them drunk, that they may slumber, and sleep an everlasting sleep, and awake no more, saith the Lord.
39他们火热的时候， 我必为他们设摆酒席， 使他们沉醉，好叫他们快乐， 睡了长觉，永不醒起。 这是耶和华说的。
40I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, and like rams with kids.
40我必使他们像羊羔、 像公绵羊和公山羊下到宰杀之地。
41How is Sesach taken, and the renowned one of all the earth surprised? How is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations?
41示沙克 何竟被攻取？ 天下所称赞的何竟被占据？ 巴比伦 在列国中何竟变为荒场？
42The sea is come up over Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.
42海水涨起，漫过 巴比伦 ； 她被许多海浪遮盖。
43Her cities are become an astonishment, a land uninhabited and desolate, a land wherein none can dwell, nor son of man pass through it.
43她的城邑变为荒场、旱地、沙漠， 无人居住，无人经过之地。
44And I will visit against Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he had swallowed down: and the rations shall no more flow together to him, for the wall also of Babylon shall fall.
44我必刑罚 巴比伦 的 彼勒 ， 使他吐出所吞的。 万民必不再流归他那里； 巴比伦 的城墙也必坍塌了。
45Go out of the midst of her, my people: that every man may save his life from the fierce wrath of the Lord.
45我的民哪，你们要从其中出去！ 各人拯救自己，躲避耶和华的烈怒。
46And lest your hearts faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land: and a rumour shall come in one year, and after this year another rumour: and iniquity in the land, and ruler upon ruler.
46你们不要心惊胆怯， 也不要因境内所听见的风声惧怕； 因为这年有风声传来； 那年也有风声 传来 ， 境内有强暴的事， 官长攻击官长。
47Therefore behold the days come, and I will visit the idols of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
47日子将到，我必刑罚 巴比伦 雕刻的偶像。 她全地必然抱愧； 她被杀的人必在其中仆倒。
48And the heavens and the earth, and all things that are in them shall give praise for Babylon: for spoilers shall come to her from the north, saith the Lord.
48那时，天地和其中所有的， 必因 巴比伦 欢呼， 因为行毁灭的要从北方来到她那里。 这是耶和华说的。
49And as Babylon caused that there should fall slain in Israel: so of Babylon there shall fall slain in all the earth.
49巴比伦 怎样使 以色列 被杀的人仆倒， 照样她全地被杀的人也必在 巴比伦 仆倒。
50You that have escaped the sword, come away, stand not still: remember the Lord afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
50你们躲避刀剑的要快走， 不要站住！ 要在远方记念耶和华， 心中追想 耶路撒冷 。
51We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: because strangers are come upon the sanctuaries of the house of the Lord.
51我们听见辱骂就蒙羞，满面惭愧， 因为外邦人进入耶和华殿的圣所。
52Therefore behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will visit her graven things, and in all her land the wounded shall groan:
52耶和华说： 日子将到，我必刑罚 巴比伦 雕刻的偶像， 通国受伤的人必唉哼。
53If Babylon should mount up to heaven, and establish her strength on high: from me there should come spoilers upon her, saith the Lord.
53巴比伦 虽升到天上， 虽使她坚固的高处更坚固， 还有行毁灭的从我这里到她那里。 这是耶和华说的。
54The noise of a cry from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:
54有哀号的声音从 巴比伦 出来； 有大毁灭的响声从 迦勒底 人之地发出。
55Because the Lord hath laid Babylon waste, and destroyed out of her the great voice: and their wave shall roar like many waters: their voice hath made a noise:
55因耶和华使 巴比伦 变为荒场， 使其中的大声灭绝。 仇敌仿佛众水， 波浪匉訇，响声已经发出。
56Because the spoiler is come upon her, that is, upon Babylon, and her valiant men are taken, and their bow is weakened, because the Lord, who is a strong revenger, will surely repay.
56这是行毁灭的临到 巴比伦 。 巴比伦 的勇士被捉住， 他们的弓折断了； 因为耶和华是施行报应的 神， 必定施行报应。
57And I will make her princes drunk. and her wise men, and her captains, and her rulers, and her valiant men: and they shall sleep an everlasting sleep, and shall awake no more, saith the whose name is Lord of hosts.
57君王—名为万军之耶和华的说： 我必使 巴比伦 的首领、 智慧人、省长、副省长，和勇士都沉醉， 使他们睡了长觉，永不醒起。
58Thus saith the Lord of hosts: That broad wall of Babylon shall be utterly broken down, and her high gates shall be burnt with fire, and the labours of the people shall come to nothing, and of the nations shall go to the fire, and shall perish.
58万军之耶和华如此说： 巴比伦 宽阔的城墙必全然倾倒； 她高大的城门必被火焚烧。 众民所劳碌的必致虚空； 列国所劳碌的被火焚烧， 他们都必困乏。
59The word that Jeremias the prophet commanded Saraias the son of Nerias, the son of Maasias, when he went with king Sedecias to Babylon, in the fourth year of his reign: now Saraias was chief over the prophecy.
59犹大 王 西底家 在位第四年，上 巴比伦 去的时候， 玛西雅 的孙子、 尼利亚 的儿子 西莱雅 与王同去（ 西莱雅 是王宫的大臣），先知 耶利米 有话吩咐他。
60And Jeremias wrote in one book all the evil that was to come upon Babylon: all these words that are written against Babylon.
60耶利米 将一切要临到 巴比伦 的灾祸，就是论到 巴比伦 的一切话，写在书上。
61And Jeremias said to Saraias: When thou shalt come into Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words,
61耶利米 对 西莱雅 说：「你到了 巴比伦 务要念这书上的话；
62Thou shalt say: O Lord, thou hast spoken against this place to destroy it: so that there should be neither man nor beast to dwell therein, and that it should be desolate for ever.
62又说：『耶和华啊，你曾论到这地方说：要剪除，甚至连人带牲畜没有在这里居住的，必永远荒凉。』
63And when thou shalt have made an end of reading this book, thou shalt tie a stone to it, and shalt throw it into the midst of the Euphrates:
63你念完了这书，就把一块石头拴在书上，扔在 幼发拉底河 中，
64And thou shalt say: Thus shall Babylon sink, and she shall not rise up from the affliction that I will bring upon her, and she shall be utterly destroyed. Thus far are the words of Jeremias.
64说：『 巴比伦 因耶和华所要降与她的灾祸，必如此沉下去，不再兴起，人民也必困乏。』」 耶利米 的话到此为止。
