1The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
1耶和華的話臨到 耶利米 說：
2“Stand in the gate of the LORD’s house, and proclaim this word there, and say, ‘Hear the LORD’s word, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.’”
2「你當站在耶和華殿的門口，在那裏宣傳這話說：你們進這些門敬拜耶和華的一切 猶大 人，當聽耶和華的話。
3The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says, “Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
3萬軍之耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝如此說：你們改正行動作為，我就使你們在這地方仍然居住。
4Don’t trust in lying words, saying, ‘The LORD’s temple, the LORD’s temple, the LORD’s temple, are these.’
4你們不要倚靠虛謊的話，說：『這些是耶和華的殿，是耶和華的殿，是耶和華的殿！』
5For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;
5「你們若實在改正行動作為，在人和鄰舍中間誠然施行公平，
6if you don’t oppress the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and don’t shed innocent blood in this place, and don’t walk after other gods to your own hurt,
6不欺壓寄居的和孤兒寡婦，在這地方不流無辜人的血，也不隨從別神陷害自己，
7then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forever more.
7我就使你們在這地方仍然居住，就是我古時所賜給你們列祖的地，直到永遠。
8Behold, you trust in lying words that can’t profit.
8「看哪，你們倚靠虛謊無益的話。
9Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods that you have not known,
9你們偷盜，殺害，姦淫，起假誓，向 巴力 燒香，並隨從素不認識的別神，
10then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, ‘We are delivered,’ that you may do all these abominations?
10且來到這稱為我名下的殿，在我面前敬拜；又說：『我們可以自由了。』你們這樣的舉動是要行那些可憎的事嗎？
11Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it,” says the LORD.
11這稱為我名下的殿在你們眼中豈可看為賊窩嗎？我都看見了。這是耶和華說的。
12“But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
12你們且往 示羅 去，就是我先前立為我名的居所，察看我因這百姓 以色列 的罪惡向那地所行的如何。」
13Now, because you have done all these works,” says the LORD, “and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you didn’t hear; and I called you, but you didn’t answer;
13耶和華說：「現在因你們行了這一切的事，我也從早起來警戒你們，你們卻不聽從；呼喚你們，你們卻不答應。
14therefore I will do to the house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.
14所以我要向這稱為我名下、你們所倚靠的殿，與我所賜給你們和你們列祖的地施行，照我從前向 示羅 所行的一樣。
15I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, even the whole offspring of Ephraim.
15我必將你們從我眼前趕出，正如趕出你們的眾弟兄，就是 以法蓮 的一切後裔。」
16“Therefore don’t pray for this people. Don’t lift up a cry or prayer for them or make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.
16「所以，你不要為這百姓祈禱；不要為他們呼求禱告，也不要向我為他們祈求，因我不聽允你。
17Don’t you see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
17他們在 猶大 城邑中和 耶路撒冷 街上所行的，你沒有看見嗎？
18The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
18孩子撿柴，父親燒火，婦女摶麵做餅，獻給天后，又向別神澆奠祭，惹我發怒。」
19Do they provoke me to anger?” says the LORD. “Don’t they provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?”
19耶和華說：「他們豈是惹我發怒呢？不是自己惹禍，以致臉上慚愧嗎？」
20Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Behold, my anger and my wrath will be poured out on this place, on man, on animal, on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it will burn and will not be quenched.”
20所以主耶和華如此說：「看哪，我必將我的怒氣和忿怒傾在這地方的人和牲畜身上，並田野的樹木和地裏的出產上，必 如火 着起，不能熄滅。」
21The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat meat.
21萬軍之耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝如此說：「你們將燔祭加在 平安 祭上，吃肉吧！
22For I didn’t speak to your fathers or command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices;
22因為我將你們列祖從 埃及 地領出來的那日，燔祭 平安 祭的事我並沒有提說，也沒有吩咐他們。
23but this thing I commanded them, saying, ‘Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. Walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’
23我只吩咐他們這一件說：『你們當聽從我的話，我就作你們的上帝，你們也作我的子民。你們行我所吩咐的一切道，就可以得福。』
24But they didn’t listen or turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
24他們卻不聽從，不側耳而聽，竟隨從 自己 的計謀和頑梗的惡心，向後不向前。
25Since the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them.
25自從你們列祖出 埃及 地的那日，直到今日，我差遣我的僕人眾先知到你們那裏去，每日從早起來差遣他們。
26Yet they didn’t listen to me or incline their ear, but made their neck stiff. They did worse than their fathers.
26你們卻不聽從，不側耳而聽，竟硬着頸項行惡，比你們列祖更甚。
27“You shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you. You shall also call to them, but they will not answer you.
27「你要將這一切的話告訴他們，他們卻不聽從；呼喚他們，他們卻不答應。
28You shall tell them, ‘This is the nation that has not listened to the LORD their God’s voice, nor received instruction. Truth has perished, and is cut off from their mouth.’
28你要對他們說：這就是不聽從耶和華－他們上帝的話、不受教訓的國民；從他們的口中，誠實滅絕了。」
29Cut off your hair, and throw it away, and take up a lamentation on the bare heights; for the LORD has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.
29耶路撒冷 啊，要剪髮拋棄， 在淨光的高處舉哀； 因為耶和華丟掉離棄了惹他忿怒的世代。
30“For the children of Judah have done that which is evil in my sight,” says the LORD. “They have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it.
30耶和華說：「 猶大 人行我眼中看為惡的事，將可憎之物設立在稱為我名下的殿中，污穢這殿。
31They have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I didn’t command, nor did it come into my mind.
31他們在 欣嫩子谷 建築 陀斐特 的邱壇，好在火中焚燒自己的兒女。這並不是我所吩咐的，也不是我心所起的意。」
32Therefore behold, the days come”, says the LORD, “that it will no more be called ‘Topheth’ or ‘The valley of the son of Hinnom’, but ‘The valley of Slaughter’; for they will bury in Topheth until there is no place to bury.
32耶和華說：「因此，日子將到，這地方不再稱為 陀斐特 和 欣嫩子谷 ，反倒稱為 殺戮谷 。因為要在 陀斐特 葬埋 屍首 ，甚至無處 可葬 ；
33The dead bodies of this people will be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth. No one will frighten them away.
33並且這百姓的屍首必給空中的飛鳥和地上的野獸作食物，並無人鬨趕。
34Then I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land will become a waste.”
34那時，我必使 猶大 城邑中和 耶路撒冷 街上，歡喜和快樂的聲音，新郎和新婦的聲音，都止息了，因為地必成為荒場。」
