Jeremiah 26
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word from the LORD, saying:
1猶大 王 約西亞 的兒子 約雅敬 登基的時候,有這話從耶和華臨到 耶利米 說:
2'Thus saith the LORD: Stand in the court of the LORD'S house, and speak unto all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in the LORD'S house, all the words that I command thee to speak unto them; diminish not a word.
2「耶和華如此說:你站在耶和華殿的院內,對 猶大 眾城邑的人,就是到耶和華殿來禮拜的,說我所吩咐你的一切話,一字不可刪減。
3It may be they will hearken, and turn every man from his evil way; that I may repent Me of the evil, which I purpose to do unto them because of the evil of their doings.
3或者他們肯聽從,各人回頭離開惡道,使我後悔不將我因他們所行的惡,想要施行的災禍降與他們。
4And thou shalt say unto them: Thus saith the LORD: If ye will not hearken to Me, to walk in My law, which I have set before you,
4你要對他們說,耶和華如此說:『你們若不聽從我,不遵行我設立在你們面前的律法,
5to hearken to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I send unto you, even sending them betimes and often, but ye have not hearkened;
5不聽我從早起來差遣到你們那裏去我僕人眾先知的話(你們還是沒有聽從),
6then will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.'
6我就必使這殿如 示羅 ,使這城為地上萬國所咒詛的。』」
7So the priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the LORD.
7耶利米 在耶和華殿中說的這些話,祭司、先知與眾民都聽見了。
8Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that the LORD had commanded him to speak unto all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people laid hold on him, saying: 'Thou shalt surely die.
8耶利米 說完了耶和華所吩咐他對眾人說的一切話,祭司、先知與眾民都來抓住他,說:「你必要死!
9Why hast thou prophesied in the name of the LORD, saying: This house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall be desolate, without an inhabitant?' And all the people were gathered against Jeremiah in the house of the LORD.
9你為何託耶和華的名預言,說這殿必如 示羅 ,這城必變為荒場無人居住呢?」於是眾民都在耶和華的殿中聚集到 耶利米 那裏。
10When the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king's house unto the house of the LORD; and they sat in the entry of the new gate of the LORD'S house.
10猶大 的首領聽見這事,就從王宮上到耶和華的殿,坐在耶和華 殿 的新門口。
11Then spoke the priests and the prophets unto the princes and to all the people, saying: 'This man is worthy of death; for he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your ears.'
11祭司、先知對首領和眾民說:「這人是該死的;因為他說預言攻擊這城,正如你們親耳所聽見的。」
12Then spoke Jeremiah unto all the princes and to all the people, saying: 'The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that ye have heard.
12耶利米 就對眾首領和眾民說:「耶和華差遣我預言,攻擊這殿和這城,說你們所聽見的這一切話。
13Therefore now amend your ways and your doings, and hearken to the voice of the LORD your God; and the LORD will repent Him of the evil that He hath pronounced against you.
13現在要改正你們的行動作為,聽從耶和華-你們上帝的話,他就必後悔,不將所說的災禍降與你們。
14But as for me, behold, I am in your hand; do with me as is good and right in your eyes.
14至於我,我在你們手中,你們眼看何為善,何為正,就那樣待我吧!
15Only know ye for certain that, if ye put me to death, ye will bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon the inhabitants thereof; for of a truth the LORD hath sent me unto you to speak all these words in your ears.'
15但你們要確實地知道,若把我治死,就使無辜人的血歸到你們和這城,並其中的居民了;因為耶和華實在差遣我到你們這裏來,將這一切話傳與你們耳中。」
16Then said the princes and all the people unto the priests and to the prophets: 'This man is not worthy of death; for he hath spoken to us in the name of the LORD our God.'
16首領和眾民就對祭司、先知說:「這人是不該死的,因為他是奉耶和華-我們上帝的名向我們說話。」
17Then rose up certain of the elders of the land, and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying:
17國中的長老就有幾個人起來,對聚會的眾民說:
18'Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Zion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.
18「當 猶大 王 希西家 的日子,有 摩利沙 人 彌迦 對 猶大 眾人預言說: 萬軍之耶和華如此說: 錫安 必被耕種像一塊田; 耶路撒冷 必變為亂堆; 這殿的山必像叢林的高處。
19Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him at all to death? did he not fear the LORD, and entreat the favour of the LORD, and the LORD repented Him of the evil which He had pronounced against them? Thus might we procure great evil against our own souls.'
19猶大 王 希西家 和 猶大 眾人豈是把他治死呢? 希西家 豈不是敬畏耶和華、懇求他的恩嗎?耶和華就後悔,不把自己所說的災禍降與他們。 若治死這人 ,我們就作了大惡,自害己命。」 (
20And there was also a man that prophesied in the name of the LORD, Uriah the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath-jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah;
20又有一個人奉耶和華的名說預言,是 基列‧耶琳 人 示瑪雅 的兒子 烏利亞 ,他照 耶利米 的一切話說預言,攻擊這城和這地。
21and when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men, and all the princes, heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Uriah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt;
21約雅敬 王和他眾勇士、眾首領聽見了 烏利亞 的話,王就想要把他治死。 烏利亞 聽見就懼怕,逃往 埃及 去了。
22and Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, Elnathan the son of Achbor, and certain men with him, into Egypt;
22約雅敬 王便打發 亞革波 的兒子 以利拿單 ,帶領幾個人往 埃及 去。
23and they fetched forth Uriah out of Egypt, and brought him unto Jehoiakim the king; who slew him with the sword, and cast his dead body into the graves of the children of the people.
23他們就從 埃及 將 烏利亞 帶出來,送到 約雅敬 王那裏;王用刀殺了他,把他的屍首拋在平民的墳地中。)
24Nevertheless the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, that they should not give him into the hand of the people to put him to death.
24然而, 沙番 的兒子 亞希甘 保護 耶利米 ,不交在百姓的手中治死他。
