Joel 2
你们要在锡安吹角, 在我圣山吹出大声。 国中的居民都要发颤; 因为耶和华的日子将到, 已经临近。
nǐ men yào zài xī ān chuī jiǎo , zài wǒ shèng shān chuī chū dà shēng 。 guó zhōng de jū mín dōu yào fā chàn ; yīn wèi yē hé huá de rì zi jiāng dào , yǐ jīng lín jìn 。
Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of the LORD comes, for it is close at hand:
那日是黑暗、幽冥、 密云、乌黑的日子, 好像晨光铺满山岭。 有一队蝗虫 又大又强; 从来没有这样的, 以后直到万代也必没有。
nà rì shì hēi àn 、 yōu míng 、 mì yún 、 wū hēi de rì zi , hǎo xiàng chén guāng pù mǎn shān lǐng 。 yǒu yí duì huáng chóng yòu dà yòu qiáng ; cóng lái méi yǒu zhè yàng de , yǐ hòu zhí dào wàn dài yě bì méi yǒu 。
A day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness. As the dawn spreading on the mountains, a great and strong people; there has never been the like, neither will there be any more after them, even to the years of many generations.
它们前面如火烧灭, 后面如火焰烧尽。 未到以前,地如伊甸园; 过去以后,成了荒凉的旷野; 没有一样能躲避它们的。
tā men qián miàn rú huǒ shāo miè , hòu miàn rú huǒ yàn shāo jìn 。 wèi dào yǐ qián , dì rú yī diàn yuán ; guò qù yǐ hòu , chéng le huāng liáng de kuàng yě ; méi yǒu yí yàng néng duǒ bì tā men de 。
A fire devours before them, and behind them, a flame burns. The land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them, a desolate wilderness. Yes, and no one has escaped them.
它们的形状如马, 奔跑如马兵。
tā men de xíng zhuàng rú mǎ , bēn pǎo rú mǎ bīng 。
Their appearance is as the appearance of horses, and they run as horsemen.
在山顶蹦跳的响声如车辆的响声, 又如火焰烧碎秸的响声, 好像强盛的民摆阵预备打仗。
zài shān dǐng bèng tiào de xiǎng shēng rú chē liàng de xiǎng shēng , yòu rú huǒ yàn shāo suì jiē de xiǎng shēng , hǎo xiàng qiáng shèng de mín bǎi zhèn yù bèi dǎ zhàng 。
Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains, they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, like a strong people set in battle array.
它们一来,众民伤恸, 脸都变色。
tā men yì lái , zhòng mín shāng tòng , liǎn dōu biàn sè 。
At their presence the peoples are in anguish. All faces have grown pale.
它们如勇士奔跑, 像战士爬城; 各都步行,不乱队伍。
tā men rú yǒng shì bēn pǎo , xiàng zhàn shì pá chéng ; gè dōu bù xíng , bú luàn duì wu 。
They run like mighty men. They climb the wall like warriors. They each march in his line, and they don’t swerve off course.
彼此并不拥挤,向前各行其路, 直闯兵器,不偏左右。
bǐ cǐ bìng bù yōng jǐ , xiàng qián gè háng qí lù , zhí chuǎng bīng qì , bù piān zuǒ yòu 。
One doesn’t jostle another. They each march in their own path. They burst through the defenses and don’t break ranks.
它们蹦上城,蹿上墙, 爬上房屋, 进入窗户如同盗贼。
tā men bèng shàng chéng , cuān shàng qiáng , pá shàng fáng wū , jìn rù chuāng hù rú tóng dào zéi 。
They rush on the city. They run on the wall. They climb up into the houses. They enter in at the windows like thieves.
它们一来, 地震天动, 日月昏暗, 星宿无光。
tā men yì lái , dì zhèn tiān dòng , rì yuè hūn àn , xīng xiù wú guāng 。
The earth quakes before them. The heavens tremble. The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.
耶和华在他军旅前发声, 他的队伍甚大; 成就他命的是强盛者。 因为耶和华的日子大而可畏, 谁能当得起呢?
yē hé huá zài tā jūn lǚ qián fā shēng , tā de duì wu shèn dà ; chéng jiù tā mìng de shì qiáng shèng zhě 。 yīn wèi yē hé huá de rì zi dà ér kě wèi , shuí néng dāng dé qǐ ne ?
The LORD thunders his voice before his army, for his forces are very great; for he is strong who obeys his command; for the day of the LORD is great and very awesome, and who can endure it?
耶和华说:虽然如此, 你们应当禁食、哭泣、悲哀, 一心归向我。
yē hé huá shuō : suī rán rú cǐ , nǐ men yīng dāng jìn shí 、 kū qì 、 bēi āi , yì xīn guī xiàng wǒ 。
“Yet even now,” says the LORD, “turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning.”
你们要撕裂心肠, 不撕裂衣服。 归向耶和华—你们的 神; 因为他有恩典,有怜悯, 不轻易发怒, 有丰盛的慈爱, 并且后悔不降所说的灾。
nǐ men yào sī liè xīn cháng , bù sī liè yī fu 。 guī xiàng yē hé huá — nǐ men de shén ; yīn wèi tā yǒu ēn diǎn , yǒu lián mǐn , bù qīng yì fā nù , yǒu fēng shèng de cí ài , bìng qiě hòu huǐ bú jiàng suǒ shuō de zāi 。
Tear your heart and not your garments, and turn to the LORD, your God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and relents from sending calamity.
或者他转意后悔,留下余福, 就是留下献给耶和华—你们 神的素祭和奠祭, 也未可知。
huò zhě tā zhuǎn yì hòu huǐ , liú xià yú fú , jiù shì liú xià xiàn gěi yē hé huá — nǐ men shén de sù jì hé diàn jì , yě wèi kě zhī 。
Who knows? He may turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meal offering and a drink offering to the LORD, your God.
你们要在锡安吹角, 分定禁食的日子, 宣告严肃会。
nǐ men yào zài xī ān chuī jiǎo , fēn dìng jìn shí de rì zi , xuān gào yán sù huì 。
Blow the trumpet in Zion! Sanctify a fast. Call a solemn assembly.
聚集众民,使会众自洁: 招聚老者, 聚集孩童和吃奶的; 使新郎出离洞房, 新妇出离内室。
jù jí zhòng mín , shǐ huì zhòng zì jié : zhāo jù lǎo zhě , jù jí hái tóng hé chī nǎi de ; shǐ xīn láng chū lí dòng fáng , xīn fù chū lí nèi shì 。
Gather the people. Sanctify the assembly. Assemble the elders. Gather the children, and those who nurse from breasts. Let the bridegroom go out of his room, and the bride out of her chamber.
事奉耶和华的祭司 要在廊子和祭坛中间哭泣,说: 耶和华啊,求你顾惜你的百姓, 不要使你的产业受羞辱, 列邦管辖他们。 为何容列国的人说: 「他们的 神在哪里」呢?
shì fèng yē hé huá de jì sī yào zài láng zǐ hé jì tán zhōng jiān kū qì , shuō : yē hé huá a , qiú nǐ gù xī nǐ de bǎi xìng , bú yào shǐ nǐ de chǎn yè shòu xiū rǔ , liè bāng guǎn xiá tā men 。 wèi hé róng liè guó de rén shuō : 「 tā men de shén zài nǎ lǐ 」 ne ?
Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, “Spare your people, LORD, and don’t give your heritage to reproach, that the nations should rule over them. Why should they say among the peoples, ‘Where is their God?’”
耶和华就为自己的地发热心, 怜恤他的百姓。
yē hé huá jiù wèi zì jǐ de dì fā rè xīn , lián xù tā de bǎi xìng 。
Then the LORD was jealous for his land, and had pity on his people.
耶和华应允他的百姓说: 我必赐给你们五谷、新酒,和油, 使你们饱足; 我也不再使你们受列国的羞辱;
yē hé huá yīng yǔn tā de bǎi xìng shuō : wǒ bì cì gěi nǐ men wǔ gǔ 、 xīn jiǔ , hé yóu , shǐ nǐ men bǎo zú ; wǒ yě bú zài shǐ nǐ men shòu liè guó de xiū rǔ ;
The LORD answered his people, “Behold, I will send you grain, new wine, and oil, and you will be satisfied with them; and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations.
却要使北方来的军队远离你们, 将他们赶到干旱荒废之地: 前队赶入东海, 后队赶入西海; 因为他们所行的大恶 , 臭气上升,腥味腾空。
què yào shǐ běi fāng lái de jūn duì yuǎn lí nǐ men , jiāng tā men gǎn dào gān hàn huāng fèi zhī dì : qián duì gǎn rù dōng hǎi , hòu duì gǎn rù xī hǎi ; yīn wèi tā men suǒ xíng de dà è , chòu qì shàng shēng , xīng wèi téng kōng 。
But I will remove the northern army far away from you, and will drive it into a barren and desolate land, its front into the eastern sea, and its back into the western sea; and its stench will come up, and its bad smell will rise.” Surely he has done great things.
地土啊,不要惧怕; 要欢喜快乐, 因为耶和华行了大事。
dì tǔ a , bú yào jù pà ; yào huān xǐ kuài lè , yīn wèi yē hé huá xíng le dà shì 。
Land, don’t be afraid. Be glad and rejoice, for the LORD has done great things.
田野的走兽啊,不要惧怕; 因为,旷野的草发生, 树木结果, 无花果树、葡萄树也都效力。
tián yě de zǒu shòu a , bú yào jù pà ; yīn wèi , kuàng yě de cǎo fā shēng , shù mù jié guǒ , wú huā guǒ shù 、 pú táo shù yě dōu xiào lì 。
Don’t be afraid, you animals of the field; for the pastures of the wilderness spring up, for the tree bears its fruit. The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
锡安的民哪,你们要快乐, 为耶和华—你们的 神欢喜; 因他赐给你们合宜的秋雨, 为你们降下甘霖, 就是秋雨、春雨,和先前一样。
xī ān de mín nǎ , nǐ men yào kuài lè , wèi yē hé huá — nǐ men de shén huān xǐ ; yīn tā cì gěi nǐ men hé yí de qiū yǔ , wèi nǐ men jiàng xià gān lín , jiù shì qiū yǔ 、 chūn yǔ , hé xiān qián yí yàng 。
“Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD, your God; for he gives you the early rain in just measure, and he causes the rain to come down for you, the early rain and the latter rain, as before.
禾场必满了麦子; 酒榨与油榨必有新酒和油盈溢。
hé chǎng bì mǎn le mài zi ; jiǔ zhà yǔ yóu zhà bì yǒu xīn jiǔ hé yóu yíng yì 。
The threshing floors will be full of wheat, and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.
我打发到你们中间的大军队, 就是蝗虫、蝻子、蚂蚱、剪虫, 那些年所吃的,我要补还你们。
wǒ dǎ fā dào nǐ men zhōng jiān de dà jūn duì , jiù shì huáng chóng 、 nǎn zǐ 、 mà zha 、 jiǎn chóng , nà xiē nián suǒ chī de , wǒ yào bǔ hái nǐ men 。
I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you.
你们必多吃而得饱足, 就赞美为你们行奇妙事之耶和华—你们 神的名。 我的百姓必永远不至羞愧。
nǐ men bì duō chī ér dé bǎo zú , jiù zàn měi wèi nǐ men xíng qí miào shì zhī yē hé huá — nǐ men shén de míng 。 wǒ de bǎi xìng bì yǒng yuǎn bú zhì xiū kuì 。
You will have plenty to eat and be satisfied, and will praise the name of the LORD, your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people will never again be disappointed.
你们必知道我是在以色列中间, 又知道我是耶和华—你们的 神; 在我以外并无别神。 我的百姓必永远不致羞愧。
nǐ men bì zhī dào wǒ shì zài yǐ sè liè zhōng jiān , yòu zhī dào wǒ shì yē hé huá — nǐ men de shén ; zài wǒ yǐ wài bìng wú bié shén 。 wǒ de bǎi xìng bì yǒng yuǎn bú zhì xiū kuì 。
You will know that I am among Israel, and that I am the LORD, your God, and there is no one else; and my people will never again be disappointed.
以后,我要将我的灵浇灌凡有血气的。 你们的儿女要说预言; 你们的老年人要做异梦, 少年人要见异象。
yǐ hòu , wǒ yào jiāng wǒ de líng jiāo guàn fán yǒu xuè qì de 。 nǐ men de ér nǚ yào shuō yù yán ; nǐ men de lǎo nián rén yào zuò yì mèng , shào nián rén yào jiàn yì xiàng 。
“It will happen afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams. Your young men will see visions.
在那些日子, 我要将我的灵浇灌我的仆人和使女。
zài nà xiē rì zi , wǒ yào jiāng wǒ de líng jiāo guàn wǒ de pú rén hé shǐ nǚ 。
And also on the servants and on the handmaids in those days, I will pour out my Spirit.
「在天上地下,我要显出奇事,有血,有火,有烟柱。
「 zài tiān shàng dì xià , wǒ yào xiǎn chū qí shì , yǒu xuè , yǒu huǒ , yǒu yān zhù 。
I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood, fire, and pillars of smoke.
日头要变为黑暗,月亮要变为血,这都在耶和华大而可畏的日子未到以前。
rì tou yào biàn wèi hēi àn , yuè liàng yào biàn wèi xuè , zhè dōu zài yē hé huá dà ér kě wèi de rì zi wèi dào yǐ qián 。
The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD comes.
到那时候,凡求告耶和华名的就必得救;因为照耶和华所说的,在锡安山,耶路撒冷必有逃脱的人,在剩下的人中必有耶和华所召的。」
dào nà shí hòu , fán qiú gào yē hé huá míng de jiù bì dé jiù ; yīn wèi zhào yē hé huá suǒ shuō de , zài xī ān shān , yē lù sā lěng bì yǒu táo tuō de rén , zài shèng xià de rén zhōng bì yǒu yē hé huá suǒ zhào de 。」
It will happen that whoever will call on the LORD’s name shall be saved; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as the LORD has said, and among the remnant, those whom the LORD calls.
