Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Aleph. How hath the Lord covered with obscurity the daughter of Sion in his wrath! how hath he cast down from heaven to the earth the glorious one of Israel, and hath not remembered his footstool in the day of his anger!
1主何竟發怒，使黑雲遮蔽 錫安 城！ 他將 以色列 的華美從天扔在地上； 在他發怒的日子並不記念自己的腳凳。
2Beth. The Lord hath cast down headlong, and hath not spared, all that was beautiful in Jacob: he hath destroyed in his wrath the strong holds of the virgin of Juda, and brought them down to the ground: he hath made the kingdom unclean, and the princes thereof.
2主吞滅 雅各 一切的住處，並不顧惜。 他發怒傾覆 猶大 民的保障， 使這保障坍倒在地； 他辱沒這國和其中的首領。
3Ghimel. He hath broken in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy: and he hath kindled in Jacob as it were a flaming fire devouring round about.
3他發烈怒，把 以色列 的角全然砍斷， 在仇敵面前收回右手。 他像火焰四圍吞滅，將 雅各 燒毀。
4Daleth. He hath bent his bow as an enemy, he hath fixed his right hand as an adversary: and he hath killed all that was fair to behold in the tabernacle of the daughter of Sion, he hath poured out his indignation like fire.
4他張弓好像仇敵； 他站着舉起右手， 如同敵人將悅人眼目的，盡行殺戮。 在 錫安 百姓的帳棚上 倒出他的忿怒，像火一樣。
5He. The Lord is become as an enemy: he hath cast down Israel headlong, he hath overthrown all the walls thereof: he hath destroyed his strong holds, and hath multiplied in the daughter of Juda the afflicted, both men and women.
5主如仇敵吞滅 以色列 和 錫安 的一切宮殿， 拆毀百姓的保障； 在 猶大 民中加增悲傷哭號。
6Vau. And he hath destroyed his tent as a garden, he hath thrown down his tabernacle: the Lord hath caused feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Sion: and hath delivered up king and priest to reproach, and to the indignation of his wrath.
6他強取自己的帳幕，好像是園中的 窩 棚， 毀壞他的聚會之處。 耶和華使聖節和安息日在 錫安 都被忘記， 又在怒氣的憤恨中藐視君王和祭司。
7Zain. The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath cursed his sanctuary: he hath delivered the walls of the towers thereof into the hand of the enemy: they have made a noise in the house of the Lord, as in the day of a solemn feast.
7耶和華丟棄自己的祭壇， 憎惡自己的聖所， 將宮殿的牆垣交付仇敵。 他們在耶和華的殿中喧嚷， 像在聖會之日一樣。
8Heth. The Lord hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Sion: he hath stretched out his line, and hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying: and the bulwark hath mourned, and the wall hath been destroyed together.
8耶和華定意拆毀 錫安 的城牆； 他拉了準繩， 不將手收回，定要毀滅。 他使外郭和城牆都悲哀， 一同衰敗。
9Teth. Her gates are sunk into the ground: he hath destroyed, and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more, and her prophets have found no vision from the Lord.
9錫安 的門都陷入地內； 主將她的門閂毀壞，折斷。 她的君王和首領落在沒有律法的列國中； 她的先知不得見耶和華的異象。
10Jod. The ancients of the daughter of Sion sit upon the ground, they have held their peace: they have sprinkled their heads with dust, they are girded with haircloth, the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
10錫安 城的長老坐在地上默默無聲； 他們揚起塵土落在頭上，腰束麻布； 耶路撒冷 的處女垂頭至地。
11Caph. My eyes have failed with weeping, my bowels are troubled: my liver is poured out upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people, when the children, and the sucklings, fainted away in the streets of the city.
11我眼中流淚，以致失明； 我的心腸擾亂，肝 膽 塗地， 都因我眾民遭毀滅， 又因孩童和吃奶的在城內街上發昏。
12Lamed. They said to their mothers: Where is corn and wine? when they fainted away as the wounded in the streets of the city: when they breathed out their souls in the bosoms of their mothers.
12那時，他們在城內街上發昏，好像受傷的， 在母親的懷裏，將要喪命； 對母親說：穀、酒在哪裏呢？
13Mem. To what shall I compare thee? or to what shall I liken thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? to what shall I equal thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Sion? for great as the sea is thy destruction: who shall heal thee?
13耶路撒冷 的民哪，我可用甚麼向你證明呢？ 我可用甚麼與你相比呢？ 錫安 的民哪，我可拿甚麼和你比較，好安慰你呢？ 因為你的裂口大如海， 誰能醫治你呢？
14Nun. Thy prophets have seen false and foolish things for thee: and they have not laid open thy iniquity, to excite thee to penance: but they have seen for thee false revelations and banishments.
14你的先知為你見虛假和愚昧的異象， 並沒有顯露你的罪孽， 使你被擄的歸回； 卻為你見虛假的默示 和使你被趕出本境的緣故。
15Samech. All they that passed by the way have clapped their hands at thee: they have hissed, and wagged their heads at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying: Is this the city of perfect beauty, the joy of all the earth?
15凡過路的都向你拍掌。 他們向 耶路撒冷 城嗤笑，搖頭， 說 ： 難道人所稱為全美的， 稱為全地所喜悅的，就是這城嗎？
16Phe. All thy enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they have hissed, and gnashed with the teeth, and have said: We will swallow her up: lo, this is the day which we looked for: we have found it, we have seen it.
16你的仇敵都向你大大張口； 他們嗤笑，又切齒說： 我們吞滅她。 這真是我們所盼望的日子臨到了！ 我們親眼看見了！
17Ain. The Lord hath done that which he purposed, he hath fulfilled his word, which he commanded in the days of old: he hath destroyed, and hath not spared, and he hath caused the enemy to rejoice over thee, and hath set up the horn of thy adversaries.
17耶和華成就了他所定的， 應驗了他古時所命定的。 他傾覆了，並不顧惜， 使你的仇敵向你誇耀； 使你敵人的角也被高舉。
18Sade. Their heart cried to the Lord upon the walls of the daughter of Sion: Let tears run down like a torrent day and night: give thyself no rest, and let not the apple of thy eye cease.
18錫安 民的心哀求主。 錫安 的城牆啊，願你流淚如河， 晝夜不息； 願你眼中的瞳人淚流不止。
19Coph. Arise, give praise in the night, in the beginning of the watches: pour out thy heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands to him for the life of thy little children, that have fainted for hunger at the top of all the streets.
19夜間，每逢交更的時候要起來呼喊， 在主面前傾心如水。 你的孩童在各市口上受餓發昏； 你要為他們的性命向主舉手禱告。
20Res. Behold, O Lord, and consider whom thou hast thus dealt with: shall women then eat their own fruit, their children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
20耶和華啊，求你觀看！ 見你向誰這樣行？ 婦人豈可吃自己所生育手裏所搖弄的嬰孩嗎？ 祭司和先知豈可在主的聖所中被殺戮嗎？
21Sin. The child and the old man lie without on the ground: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword: thou hast slain them in the day of thy wrath: thou hast killed, and shewn them no pity.
21少年人和老年人都在街上躺臥； 我的處女和壯丁都倒在刀下； 你發怒的日子殺死他們。 你殺了，並不顧惜。
22Thau. Thou hast called as to a festival, those that should terrify me round about, and there was none in the day of the wrath of the Lord that escaped and was left: those that I brought up, and nourished, my enemy hath consumed them.
22你招聚四圍驚嚇我的， 像在大會的日子招聚 人 一樣。 耶和華發怒的日子， 無人逃脫，無人存留。 我所搖弄所養育的嬰孩， 仇敵都殺淨了。
