Deuteronomy 7

「耶和华—你 神领你进入要得为业之地，从你面前赶出许多国民，就是赫人、革迦撒人、亚摩利人、迦南人、比利洗人、希未人、耶布斯人，共七国的民，都比你强大。

「 yē hé huá — nǐ shén lǐng nǐ jìn rù yào dé wèi yè zhī dì ， cóng nǐ miàn qián gǎn chū xǔ duō guó mín ， jiù shì hè rén 、 gé jiā sā rén 、 yà mó lì rén 、 jiā nán rén 、 bǐ lì xǐ rén 、 xī wèi rén 、 yē bù sī rén ， gòng qī guó de mín ， dōu bǐ nǐ qiáng dà 。

When the LORD your God brings you into the land where you go to possess it, and casts out many nations before you—the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite—seven nations greater and mightier than you;

耶和华—你 神将他们交给你击杀，那时你要把他们灭绝净尽，不可与他们立约，也不可怜恤他们。

yē hé huá — nǐ shén jiāng tā men jiāo gěi nǐ jī shā ， nà shí nǐ yào bǎ tā men miè jué jìng jìn ， bù kě yǔ tā men lì yuē ， yě bù kě lián xù tā men 。

and when the LORD your God delivers them up before you, and you strike them, then you shall utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them.

不可与他们结亲。不可将你的女儿嫁他们的儿子，也不可叫你的儿子娶他们的女儿；

bù kě yǔ tā men jié qīn 。 bù kě jiāng nǐ de nǚ ér jià tā men de ér zi ， yě bù kě jiào nǐ de ér zi qǔ tā men de nǚ ér ；

You shall not make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to his son, nor shall you take his daughter for your son.

因为他必使你儿子转离不跟从主，去事奉别神，以致耶和华的怒气向你们发作，就速速地将你们灭绝。

yīn wèi tā bì shǐ nǐ ér zi zhuǎn lí bù gēn cóng zhǔ ， qù shì fèng bié shén ， yǐ zhì yē hé huá de nù qì xiàng nǐ men fā zuò ， jiù sù sù dì jiāng nǐ men miè jué 。

For that would turn away your sons from following me, that they may serve other gods. So the LORD’s anger would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.

你们却要这样待他们：拆毁他们的祭坛，打碎他们的柱像，砍下他们的木偶，用火焚烧他们雕刻的偶像。

nǐ men què yào zhè yàng dài tā men ： chāi huǐ tā men de jì tán ， dǎ suì tā men de zhù xiàng ， kǎn xià tā men de mù ǒu ， yòng huǒ fén shāo tā men diāo kè de ǒu xiàng 。

But you shall deal with them like this: you shall break down their altars, dash their pillars in pieces, cut down their Asherah poles, and burn their engraved images with fire.

因为你归耶和华—你 神为圣洁的民；耶和华—你 神从地上的万民中拣选你，特作自己的子民。

yīn wèi nǐ guī yē hé huá — nǐ shén wèi shèng jié de mín ； yē hé huá — nǐ shén cóng dì shàng de wàn mín zhōng jiǎn xuǎn nǐ ， tè zuò zì jǐ de zǐ mín 。

For you are a holy people to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.

「耶和华专爱你们，拣选你们，并非因你们的人数多于别民，原来你们的人数在万民中是最少的。

「 yē hé huá zhuān ài nǐ men ， jiǎn xuǎn nǐ men ， bìng fēi yīn nǐ men de rén shù duō yú bié mín ， yuán lái nǐ men de rén shù zài wàn mín zhōng shì zuì shǎo de 。

The LORD didn’t set his love on you nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all peoples;

只因耶和华爱你们，又因要守他向你们列祖所起的誓，就用大能的手领你们出来，从为奴之家救赎你们脱离埃及王法老的手。

zhī yīn yē hé huá ài nǐ men ， yòu yīn yào shǒu tā xiàng nǐ men liè zǔ suǒ qǐ de shì ， jiù yòng dà néng de shǒu lǐng nǐ men chū lái ， cóng wèi nú zhī jiā jiù shú nǐ men tuō lí āi jí wáng fǎ lǎo de shǒu 。

but because the LORD loves you, and because he desires to keep the oath which he swore to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

所以，你要知道耶和华—你的 神，他是 神，是信实的 神；向爱他、守他诫命的人守约，施慈爱，直到千代；

suǒ yǐ ， nǐ yào zhī dào yē hé huá — nǐ de shén ， tā shì shén ， shì xìn shí de shén ； xiàng ài tā 、 shǒu tā jiè mìng de rén shǒu yuē ， shī cí ài ， zhí dào qiān dài ；

Know therefore that the LORD your God himself is God, the faithful God, who keeps covenant and loving kindness to a thousand generations with those who love him and keep his commandments,

向恨他的人当面报应他们，将他们灭绝。凡恨他的人必报应他们，决不迟延。

xiàng hèn tā de rén dāng miàn bào yìng tā men ， jiāng tā men miè jué 。 fán hèn tā de rén bì bào yìng tā men ， jué bù chí yán 。

and repays those who hate him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack to him who hates him. He will repay him to his face.

所以，你要谨守遵行我今日所吩咐你的诫命、律例、典章。」

suǒ yǐ ， nǐ yào jǐn shǒu zūn xíng wǒ jīn rì suǒ fēn fù nǐ de jiè mìng 、 lǜ lì 、 diǎn zhāng 。」

You shall therefore keep the commandments, the statutes, and the ordinances which I command you today, to do them.

「你们果然听从这些典章，谨守遵行，耶和华—你 神就必照他向你列祖所起的誓守约，施慈爱。

「 nǐ men guǒ rán tīng cóng zhè xiē diǎn zhāng ， jǐn shǒu zūn xíng ， yē hé huá — nǐ shén jiù bì zhào tā xiàng nǐ liè zǔ suǒ qǐ de shì shǒu yuē ， shī cí ài 。

It shall happen, because you listen to these ordinances and keep and do them, that the LORD your God will keep with you the covenant and the loving kindness which he swore to your fathers.

他必爱你，赐福与你，使你人数增多，也必在他向你列祖起誓应许给你的地上赐福与你身所生的，地所产的，并你的五谷、新酒，和油，以及牛犊、羊羔。

tā bì ài nǐ ， cì fú yǔ nǐ ， shǐ nǐ rén shù zēng duō ， yě bì zài tā xiàng nǐ liè zǔ qǐ shì yīng xǔ gěi nǐ de dì shàng cì fú yǔ nǐ shēn suǒ shēng de ， dì suǒ chǎn de ， bìng nǐ de wǔ gǔ 、 xīn jiǔ ， hé yóu ， yǐ jí niú dú 、 yáng gāo 。

He will love you, bless you, and multiply you. He will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the increase of your livestock and the young of your flock, in the land which he swore to your fathers to give you.

你必蒙福胜过万民；你们的男女没有不能生养的，牲畜也没有不能生育的。

nǐ bì méng fú shèng guò wàn mín ； nǐ men de nán nǚ méi yǒu bù néng shēng yǎng de ， shēng chù yě méi yǒu bù néng shēng yù de 。

You will be blessed above all peoples. There won’t be male or female barren among you, or among your livestock.

耶和华必使一切的病症离开你；你所知道埃及各样的恶疾，他不加在你身上，只加在一切恨你的人身上。

yē hé huá bì shǐ yí qiè de bìng zhèng lí kāi nǐ ； nǐ suǒ zhī dào āi jí gè yàng de è jí ， tā bù jiā zài nǐ shēn shàng ， zhī jiā zài yí qiè hèn nǐ de rén shēn shàng 。

The LORD will take away from you all sickness; and he will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you know, on you, but will lay them on all those who hate you.

耶和华—你 神所要交给你的一切人民，你要将他们除灭；你眼不可顾惜他们。你也不可事奉他们的神，因这必成为你的网罗。

yē hé huá — nǐ shén suǒ yào jiāo gěi nǐ de yí qiè rén mín ， nǐ yào jiāng tā men chú miè ； nǐ yǎn bù kě gù xī tā men 。 nǐ yě bù kě shì fèng tā men de shén ， yīn zhè bì chéng wéi nǐ de wǎng luó 。

You shall consume all the peoples whom the LORD your God shall deliver to you. Your eye shall not pity them. You shall not serve their gods; for that would be a snare to you.

「你若心里说，这些国的民比我更多，我怎能赶出他们呢？

「 nǐ ruò xīn lǐ shuō ， zhè xiē guó de mín bǐ wǒ gèng duō ， wǒ zěn néng gǎn chū tā men ne ？

If you shall say in your heart, “These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them?”

你不要惧怕他们，要牢牢记念耶和华—你 神向法老和埃及全地所行的事，

nǐ bú yào jù pà tā men ， yào láo láo jì niàn yē hé huá — nǐ shén xiàng fǎ lǎo hé āi jí quán dì suǒ xíng de shì ，

you shall not be afraid of them. You shall remember well what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt:

就是你亲眼所看见的大试验、神迹、奇事，和大能的手，并伸出来的膀臂，都是耶和华—你 神领你出来所用的。耶和华—你 神必照样待你所惧怕的一切人民。

jiù shì nǐ qīn yǎn suǒ kàn jiàn de dà shì yàn 、 shén jì 、 qí shì ， hé dà néng de shǒu ， bìng shēn chū lái de bǎng bì ， dōu shì yē hé huá — nǐ shén lǐng nǐ chū lái suǒ yòng de 。 yē hé huá — nǐ shén bì zhào yàng dài nǐ suǒ jù pà de yí qiè rén mín 。

the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the LORD your God brought you out. So shall the LORD your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.

并且耶和华—你 神必打发黄蜂飞到他们中间，直到那剩下而藏躲的人从你面前灭亡。

bìng qiě yē hé huá — nǐ shén bì dǎ fā huáng fēng fēi dào tā men zhōng jiān ， zhí dào nà shèng xià ér cáng duǒ de rén cóng nǐ miàn qián miè wáng 。

Moreover the LORD your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves, perish from before you.

你不要因他们惊恐，因为耶和华—你 神在你们中间是大而可畏的 神。

nǐ bú yào yīn tā men jīng kǒng ， yīn wèi yē hé huá — nǐ shén zài nǐ men zhōng jiān shì dà ér kě wèi de shén 。

You shall not be scared of them; for the LORD your God is among you, a great and awesome God.

耶和华—你 神必将这些国的民从你面前渐渐赶出；你不可把他们速速灭尽，恐怕野地的兽多起来害你。

yē hé huá — nǐ shén bì jiāng zhè xiē guó de mín cóng nǐ miàn qián jiàn jiàn gǎn chū ； nǐ bù kě bǎ tā men sù sù miè jìn ， kǒng pà yě dì de shòu duō qǐ lái hài nǐ 。

The LORD your God will cast out those nations before you little by little. You may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.

耶和华—你 神必将他们交给你，大大地扰乱他们，直到他们灭绝了；

yē hé huá — nǐ shén bì jiāng tā men jiāo gěi nǐ ， dà dà dì rǎo luàn tā men ， zhí dào tā men miè jué le ；

But the LORD your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they are destroyed.

又要将他们的君王交在你手中，你就使他们的名从天下消灭。必无一人能在你面前站立得住，直到你将他们灭绝了。

yòu yào jiāng tā men de jūn wáng jiāo zài nǐ shǒu zhōng ， nǐ jiù shǐ tā men de míng cóng tiān xià xiāo miè 。 bì wú yì rén néng zài nǐ miàn qián zhàn lì dé zhù ， zhí dào nǐ jiāng tā men miè jué le 。

He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name perish from under the sky. No one will be able to stand before you until you have destroyed them.

他们雕刻的神像，你们要用火焚烧；其上的金银，你不可贪图，也不可收取，免得你因此陷入网罗；这原是耶和华—你 神所憎恶的。

tā men diāo kè de shén xiàng ， nǐ men yào yòng huǒ fén shāo ； qí shàng de jīn yín ， nǐ bù kě tān tú ， yě bù kě shōu qǔ ， miǎn de nǐ yīn cǐ xiàn rù wǎng luó ； zhè yuán shì yē hé huá — nǐ shén suǒ zēng wù de 。

You shall burn the engraved images of their gods with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourself, lest you be snared in it; for it is an abomination to the LORD your God.

可憎的物，你不可带进家去；不然，你就成了当毁灭的，与那物一样。你要十分厌恶，十分憎嫌，因为这是当毁灭的物。」

kě zēng de wù ， nǐ bù kě dài jìn jiā qù ； bù rán ， nǐ jiù chéng le dāng huǐ miè de ， yǔ nà wù yí yàng 。 nǐ yào shí fēn yàn wù ， shí fēn zēng xián ， yīn wèi zhè shì dāng huǐ miè de wù 。」

You shall not bring an abomination into your house and become a devoted thing like it. You shall utterly detest it. You shall utterly abhor it; for it is a devoted thing.
