舊約 -- 耶利米書(shū)(Jeremiah) -- 第50章
50:1 耶和華藉先知耶利米論巴比倫和迦勒底人之地所說(shuō)的話。
The word that the LORD spake against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet.
50:2 你們要在萬(wàn)國(guó)中傳揚(yáng)報(bào)告,豎立大旗。要報(bào)告,不可隱瞞,說(shuō),巴比倫被攻取,彼勒蒙羞,米羅達(dá)驚惶。巴比倫的神像都蒙羞。她的偶像都驚惶。
Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces.
50:3 因有一國(guó)從北方上來(lái)攻擊她,使她的地荒涼,無(wú)人居住,連人帶牲畜都逃走了。
For out of the north there cometh up a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell therein: they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast.
50:4 耶和華說(shuō),當(dāng)那日子,那時(shí)候,以色列人要和猶大人同來(lái),隨走隨哭,尋求耶和華他們的神。
In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the LORD their God.
50:5 他們必訪問(wèn)錫安,又面向這里,說(shuō),來(lái)吧,你們要與耶和華聯(lián)合為永遠(yuǎn)不忘的約。
They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us join ourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten.
50:6 我的百姓作了迷失的羊,牧人使他們走差路,使他們轉(zhuǎn)到山上。他們從大山走到小山,竟忘了安歇之處。
My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.
50:7 凡遇見(jiàn)他們的,就把他們吞滅。敵人說(shuō),我們沒(méi)有罪。因他們得罪那作公義居所的耶和華,就是他們列祖所仰望的耶和華。
All that found them have devoured them: and their adversaries said, We offend not, because they have sinned against the LORD, the habitation of justice, even the LORD, the hope of their fathers.
50:8 我民哪,你們要從巴比倫中逃走,從迦勒底人之地出去,要像羊群前面走的公山羊。
Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he goats before the flocks.
50:9 因我必激動(dòng)聯(lián)合的大國(guó)從北方上來(lái)攻擊巴比倫,他們要擺陣攻擊她。她必從那里被攻取。他們的箭好像善射之勇士的箭,一枝也不徒然返回。
For, lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country: and they shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she shall be taken: their arrows shall be as of a mighty expert man; none shall return in vain.
50:10 迦勒底必成為掠物。凡擄掠她的都必心滿(mǎn)意足。這是耶和華說(shuō)的。
And Chaldea shall be a spoil: all that spoil her shall be satisfied, saith the LORD.
50:11 搶奪我產(chǎn)業(yè)的阿,你們因歡喜快樂(lè),且像踹谷撒歡的母牛犢,又像發(fā)嘶聲的壯馬。
Because ye were glad, because ye rejoiced, O ye destroyers of mine heritage, because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass, and bellow as bulls;
50:12 你們的母巴比倫就極其抱愧,生你們的必然蒙羞。她要列在諸國(guó)之末,成為曠野,旱地,沙漠。
Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
50:13 因耶和華的忿怒,必?zé)o人居住,要全然荒涼。凡經(jīng)過(guò)巴比倫的要受驚駭,又因她所遭的災(zāi)殃嗤笑。
Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.
50:14 所有拉弓的,你們要在巴比倫的四圍擺陣,射箭攻擊她。不要愛(ài)惜箭枝,因她得罪了耶和華。
Put yourselves in array against Babylon round about: all ye that bend the bow, shoot at her, spare no arrows: for she hath sinned against the LORD.
50:15 你們要在她四圍吶喊。她已經(jīng)投降。外郭坍塌了,城墻拆毀了,因?yàn)檫@是耶和華報(bào)仇的事。你們要向巴比倫報(bào)仇。她怎樣待人,也要怎樣待她。
Shout against her round about: she hath given her hand: her foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down: for it is the vengeance of the LORD: take vengeance upon her; as she hath done, do unto her.
50:16 你們要將巴比倫撒種的和收割時(shí)拿鐮刀的都剪除了。他們各人因怕欺壓的刀劍,必歸回本族,逃到本土。
Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn every one to his people, and they shall flee every one to his own land.
50:17 以色列是打散的羊,是被獅子趕出的。首先是亞述王將他吞滅,末后是巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒將他的骨頭折斷。
Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones.
50:18 所以萬(wàn)軍之耶和華以色列的神如此說(shuō),我必罰巴比倫王和他的地,像我從前罰亞述王一樣。
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.
50:19 我必再領(lǐng)以色列回他的草場(chǎng),他必在迦密和巴珊吃草,又在以法蓮山上和基列境內(nèi)得以飽足。
And I will bring Israel again to his habitation, and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied upon mount Ephraim and Gilead.
50:20 耶和華說(shuō),當(dāng)那日子,那時(shí)候,雖尋以色列的罪孽,一無(wú)所有。雖尋猶大的罪惡,也無(wú)所見(jiàn)。因?yàn)槲宜粝碌娜耍冶厣饷狻?/p>
In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.
50:21 耶和華說(shuō),上去攻擊米拉大翁之地,又攻擊比割的居民。要追殺滅盡,照我一切所吩咐你的去行。
Go up against the land of Merathaim, even against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod: waste and utterly destroy after them, saith the LORD, and do according to all that I have commanded thee.
50:22 境內(nèi)有打仗和大毀滅的響聲。
A sound of battle is in the land, and of great destruction.
50:23 全地的大錘何竟砍斷破壞。巴比倫在列國(guó)中何竟荒涼。
How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!
50:24 巴比倫哪,我為你設(shè)下網(wǎng)羅,你不知不覺(jué)被纏住。你被尋著,也被捉住。因?yàn)槟闩c耶和華爭(zhēng)競(jìng)。
I have laid a snare for thee, and thou art also taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striven against the LORD.
50:25 耶和華已經(jīng)開(kāi)了武庫(kù),拿出他惱恨的兵器。因?yàn)橹魅f(wàn)軍之耶和華在迦勒底人之地有當(dāng)作的事。
The LORD hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: for this is the work of the Lord GOD of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans.
50:26 你們要從極遠(yuǎn)的邊界來(lái)攻擊她,開(kāi)她的倉(cāng)廩,將她堆如高堆,毀滅凈盡,絲毫不留。
Come against her from the utmost border, open her storehouses: cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly: let nothing of her be left.
50:27 要?dú)⑺囊磺信伲顾麄兿氯ピ庥鰵⒙尽K麄冇械溋耍驗(yàn)樽酚懰麄兊娜兆右呀?jīng)來(lái)到。
Slay all her bullocks; let them go down to the slaughter: woe unto them! for their day is come, the time of their visitation.
50:28 有從巴比倫之地逃避出來(lái)的人,在錫安揚(yáng)聲報(bào)告耶和華我們的神報(bào)仇,就是為他的殿報(bào)仇。
The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
50:29 招集一切弓箭手來(lái)攻擊巴比倫。要在巴比倫四圍安營(yíng),不要容一人逃脫,照著她所作的報(bào)應(yīng)她。她怎樣待人,也要怎樣待她,因?yàn)樗蛞腿A以色列的圣者發(fā)了狂傲。
Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do unto her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
50:30 所以她的少年人必仆倒在街上。當(dāng)那日,一切兵丁必默默無(wú)聲。這是耶和華說(shuō)的。
Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD.
50:31 主萬(wàn)軍之耶和華說(shuō),你這狂傲的阿,我與你反對(duì),因?yàn)槲易酚懩愕娜兆右呀?jīng)來(lái)到。
Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee.
50:32 狂傲的必絆跌仆倒,無(wú)人扶起。我也必使火在他的城邑中里起來(lái),將他四圍所有的盡行燒滅。
And the most proud shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.
50:33 萬(wàn)軍之耶和華如此說(shuō),以色列人和猶大人一同受欺壓。凡擄掠他們的都緊緊抓住他們,不肯釋放。
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah were oppressed together: and all that took them captives held them fast; they refused to let them go.
50:34 他們的救贖主大有能力,萬(wàn)軍之耶和華是他的名。他必伸清他們的冤,好使全地得平安,并攪擾巴比倫的居民。
Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
50:35 耶和華說(shuō),有刀劍臨到迦勒底人和巴比倫的居民,并她的首領(lǐng)與智慧人。
A sword is upon the Chaldeans, saith the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men.
50:36 有刀劍臨到矜夸的人,他們就成為愚昧。有刀劍臨到她的勇士,他們就驚惶。
A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed.
50:37 有刀劍臨到她的馬匹,車(chē)輛,和其中雜族的人民。他們必像婦女一樣。有刀劍臨到她的寶物,就被搶奪。
A sword is upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed.
50:38 有乾旱臨到她的眾水,就必乾涸。因?yàn)檫@是有雕刻偶像之地,人因偶像而顛狂。
A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad upon their idols.

Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
50:40 耶和華說(shuō),必?zé)o人住在那里,也無(wú)人在其中寄居,要像我傾覆所多瑪,蛾摩拉,和鄰近的城邑一樣。
As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
50:41 看哪,有一種民從北方而來(lái),并有一大國(guó)和許多君王被激動(dòng),從地極來(lái)到。
Behold, a people shall come from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
50:42 他們拿弓和槍?zhuān)郧闅埲蹋皇z憫。他們的聲音像海浪??訇。巴比倫城(城原文作女子)阿,他們騎馬,都擺隊(duì)伍如上戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)的人,要攻擊你。
They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
50:43 巴比倫王聽(tīng)見(jiàn)他們的風(fēng)聲,手就發(fā)軟,痛苦將他抓住,疼痛彷佛產(chǎn)難的婦人。
The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: anguish took hold of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail.
50:44 仇敵必像獅子從約旦河邊的叢林上來(lái),攻擊堅(jiān)固的居所。轉(zhuǎn)眼之間,我要使他們逃跑,離開(kāi)這地。誰(shuí)蒙揀選,我就派誰(shuí)治理這地。誰(shuí)能比我呢。誰(shuí)能給我定規(guī)日期呢。有何牧人能在我們面前站立得住呢?
Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan unto the habitation of the strong: but I will make them suddenly run away from her: and who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me?
50:45 你們要聽(tīng)耶和華攻擊巴比倫所說(shuō)的謀略和他攻擊迦勒底人之地所定的旨意。仇敵定要將他們?nèi)罕娢⑷醯睦ィㄒ顾麄兊木铀臎觥?/p>
Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.
