Jeremiah 39
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1in the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon and all his army against Jerusalem, and besieged it;
1猶大 王 西底家 第九年十月， 巴比倫 王 尼布甲尼撒 率領全軍來圍困 耶路撒冷 。
2in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city —
2西底家 十一年四月初九日，城被攻破。
3that all the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate, even Nergal-sarezer, Samgar-nebo, Sarsechim Rab-saris, Nergal-sarezer Rab-mag, with all the residue of the princes of the king of Babylon.
3耶路撒冷 被攻取的時候， 巴比倫 王的首領 尼甲‧沙利薛 、 三甲‧尼波 、 撒西金 －拉撒力、 尼甲‧沙利薛 －拉墨，並 巴比倫 王其餘的一切首領都來坐在 中門 。
4And it came to pass, that when Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, by the gate betwixt the two walls; and he went out the way of the Arabah.
4猶大 王 西底家 和一切兵丁看見他們，就在夜間從靠近王園兩城中間的門出城逃跑，往 亞拉巴 逃去。
5But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath, and he gave judgment upon him.
5迦勒底 的軍隊追趕他們，在 耶利哥 的平原追上 西底家 ，將他拿住，帶到 哈馬 地的 利比拉 、 巴比倫 王 尼布甲尼撒 那裏； 尼布甲尼撒 就審判他。
6Then the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes; also the king of Babylon slew all the nobles of Judah.
6巴比倫 王在 利比拉 、 西底家 眼前殺了他的眾子，又殺了 猶大 的一切貴冑，
7Moreover he put out Zedekiah's eyes, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
7並且剜 西底家 的眼睛，用銅鍊鎖着他，要帶到 巴比倫 去。
8And the Chaldeans burned the king's house, and the house of the people, with fire, and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
8迦勒底 人用火焚燒王宮和百姓的房屋，又拆毀 耶路撒冷 的城牆。
9Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the remnant of the people that remained in the city, the deserters also, that fell away to him, with the rest of the people that remained.
9那時，護衛長 尼布撒拉旦 將城裏所剩下的百姓和投降他的逃民，以及其餘的民都擄到 巴比倫 去了。
10But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, that had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields in that day.
10護衛長 尼布撒拉旦 卻將民中毫無所有的窮人留在 猶大 地，當時給他們葡萄園和田地。
11Now Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, saying:
11巴比倫 王 尼布甲尼撒 提到 耶利米 ，囑咐護衛長 尼布撒拉旦 說：
12'Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do unto him even as he shall say unto thee.'
12「你領他去，好好地看待他，切不可害他；他對你怎麼說，你就向他怎麼行。」
13So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard sent, and Nebushazban Rab-saris, and Nergal-sarezer Rab-mag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon;
13護衛長 尼布撒拉旦 和 尼布沙斯班 －拉撒力、 尼甲‧沙利薛 －拉墨，並 巴比倫 王的一切官長，
14they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home; so he dwelt among the people.
14打發人去，將 耶利米 從護衛兵院中提出來，交與 沙番 的孫子 亞希甘 的兒子 基大利 ，帶回家去。於是 耶利米 住在民中。
15Now the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying:
15耶利米 還囚在護衛兵院中的時候，耶和華的話臨到他說：
16'Go, and speak to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring My words upon this city for evil, and not for good; and they shall be accomplished before thee in that day.
16「你去告訴 古實 人 以伯‧米勒 說，萬軍之耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝如此說：我說降禍不降福的話必臨到這城，到那時必在你面前成就了。
17But I will deliver thee in that day, saith the LORD; and thou shalt not be given into the hand of the men of whom thou art afraid.
17耶和華說：到那日我必拯救你，你必不致交在你所怕的人手中。
18For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee; because thou hast put thy trust in Me, saith the LORD.'
18我定要搭救你，你不致倒在刀下，卻要以自己的命為掠物，因你倚靠我。這是耶和華說的。」
