Zephaniah 3

这悖逆、污秽、欺压的城有祸了！

zhè bèi nì 、 wū huì 、 qī yā de chéng yǒu huò le ！

Woe to her who is rebellious and polluted, the oppressing city!

她不听从命令，不领受训诲， 不倚靠耶和华， 不亲近她的 神。

tā bù tīng cóng mìng lìng ， bù lǐng shòu xùn huì ， bù yǐ kào yē hé huá ， bù qīn jìn tā de shén 。

She didn’t obey the voice. She didn’t receive correction. She didn’t trust in the LORD. She didn’t draw near to her God.

她中间的首领是咆哮的狮子； 她的审判官是晚上的豺狼， 一点食物也不留到早晨。

tā zhōng jiān de shǒu lǐng shì páo xiào de shī zi ； tā de shěn pàn guān shì wǎn shàng de chái láng ， yì diǎn shí wù yě bù liú dào zǎo chén 。

Her princes within her are roaring lions. Her judges are evening wolves. They leave nothing until the next day.

她的先知是虚浮诡诈的人； 她的祭司亵渎圣所， 强解律法。

tā de xiān zhī shì xū fú guǐ zhà de rén ； tā de jì sī xiè dú shèng suǒ ， qiáng jiě lǜ fǎ 。

Her prophets are arrogant and treacherous people. Her priests have profaned the sanctuary. They have done violence to the law.

耶和华在她中间是公义的， 断不做非义的事， 每早晨显明他的公义，无日不然； 只是不义的人不知羞耻。

yē hé huá zài tā zhōng jiān shì gōng yì de ， duàn bú zuò fēi yì de shì ， měi zǎo chén xiǎn míng tā de gōng yì ， wú rì bù rán ； zhǐ shì bú yì de rén bù zhī xiū chǐ 。

The LORD, within her, is righteous. He will do no wrong. Every morning he brings his justice to light. He doesn’t fail, but the unjust know no shame.

我—耶和华已经除灭列国的民； 他们的城楼毁坏。 我使他们的街道荒凉，以致无人经过； 他们的城邑毁灭，以致无人， 也无居民。

wǒ — yē hé huá yǐ jīng chú miè liè guó de mín ； tā men de chéng lóu huǐ huài 。 wǒ shǐ tā men de jiē dào huāng liáng ， yǐ zhì wú rén jīng guò ； tā men de chéng yì huǐ miè ， yǐ zhì wú rén ， yě wú jū mín 。

I have cut off nations. Their battlements are desolate. I have made their streets waste, so that no one passes by. Their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, so that there is no inhabitant.

我说：你只要敬畏我，领受训诲； 如此，你的住处不致照我所拟定的除灭。 只是你们从早起来就在一切事上败坏自己。

wǒ shuō ： nǐ zhī yào jìng wèi wǒ ， lǐng shòu xùn huì ； rú cǐ ， nǐ de zhù chù bú zhì zhào wǒ suǒ nǐ dìng de chú miè 。 zhǐ shì nǐ men cóng zǎo qǐ lái jiù zài yí qiè shì shàng bài huài zì jǐ 。

I said, “Just fear me. Receive correction,” so that her dwelling won’t be cut off, according to all that I have appointed concerning her. But they rose early and corrupted all their doings.

耶和华说：你们要等候我， 直到我兴起掳掠的日子； 因为我已定意招聚列国，聚集列邦， 将我的恼怒—就是我的烈怒都倾在她们身上。 我的忿怒如火，必烧灭全地。

yē hé huá shuō ： nǐ men yào děng hòu wǒ ， zhí dào wǒ xīng qǐ lǔ lüè de rì zi ； yīn wèi wǒ yǐ dìng yì zhāo jù liè guó ， jù jí liè bāng ， jiāng wǒ de nǎo nù — jiù shì wǒ de liè nù dōu qīng zài tā men shēn shàng 。 wǒ de fèn nù rú huǒ ， bì shāo miè quán dì 。

“Therefore wait for me”, says the LORD, “until the day that I rise up to the prey, for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms to pour on them my indignation, even all my fierce anger, for all the earth will be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

那时，我必使万民用清洁的言语 好求告我—耶和华的名， 同心合意地事奉我。

nà shí ， wǒ bì shǐ wàn mín yòng qīng jié de yán yǔ hǎo qiú gào wǒ — yē hé huá de míng ， tóng xīn hé yì dì shì fèng wǒ 。

For then I will purify the lips of the peoples, that they may all call on the LORD’s name, to serve him shoulder to shoulder.

祈祷我的，就是我所分散的民 ， 必从古实河外来，给我献供物。

qí dǎo wǒ de ， jiù shì wǒ suǒ fēn sàn de mín ， bì cóng gǔ shí hé wài lái ， gěi wǒ xiàn gòng wù 。

From beyond the rivers of Cush, my worshipers, even the daughter of my dispersed people, will bring my offering.

当那日，你必不因你一切得罪我的事自觉羞愧； 因为那时我必从你中间除掉矜夸高傲之辈， 你也不再于我的圣山狂傲。

dāng nà rì ， nǐ bì bù yīn nǐ yí qiè dé zuì wǒ de shì zì jué xiū kuì ； yīn wèi nà shí wǒ bì cóng nǐ zhōng jiān chú diào jīn kuā gāo ào zhī bèi ， nǐ yě bú zài yú wǒ de shèng shān kuáng ào 。

In that day you will not be disappointed for all your doings in which you have transgressed against me; for then I will take away out from among you your proudly exulting ones, and you will no more be arrogant in my holy mountain.

我却要在你中间留下困苦贫寒的民； 他们必投靠我—耶和华的名。

wǒ què yào zài nǐ zhōng jiān liú xià kùn kǔ pín hán de mín ； tā men bì tóu kào wǒ — yē hé huá de míng 。

But I will leave among you an afflicted and poor people, and they will take refuge in the LORD’s name.

以色列所剩下的人必不作罪孽， 不说谎言，口中也没有诡诈的舌头； 而且吃喝躺卧，无人惊吓。

yǐ sè liè suǒ shèng xià de rén bì bú zuò zuì niè ， bù shuō huǎng yán ， kǒu zhōng yě méi yǒu guǐ zhà de shé tou ； ér qiě chī hē tǎng wò ， wú rén jīng xià 。

The remnant of Israel will not do iniquity nor speak lies, neither will a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth, for they will feed and lie down, and no one will make them afraid.”

锡安的民哪，应当歌唱！ 以色列啊，应当欢呼！ 耶路撒冷的民哪，应当满心欢喜快乐！

xī ān de mín nǎ ， yīng dāng gē chàng ！ yǐ sè liè a ， yīng dāng huān hū ！ yē lù sā lěng de mín nǎ ， yīng dāng mǎn xīn huān xǐ kuài lè ！

Sing, daughter of Zion! Shout, Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, daughter of Jerusalem.

耶和华已经除去你的刑罚， 赶出你的仇敌。 以色列的王—耶和华在你中间； 你必不再惧怕灾祸。

yē hé huá yǐ jīng chú qù nǐ de xíng fá ， gǎn chū nǐ de chóu dí 。 yǐ sè liè de wáng — yē hé huá zài nǐ zhōng jiān ； nǐ bì bú zài jù pà zāi huò 。

The LORD has taken away your judgments. He has thrown out your enemy. The King of Israel, the LORD, is among you. You will not be afraid of evil any more.

当那日，必有话向耶路撒冷说： 不要惧怕！锡安哪； 不要手软！

dāng nà rì ， bì yǒu huà xiàng yē lù sā lěng shuō ： bú yào jù pà ！ xī ān nǎ ； bú yào shǒu ruǎn ！

In that day, it will be said to Jerusalem, “Don’t be afraid, Zion. Don’t let your hands be weak.”

耶和华—你的 神是施行拯救、 大有能力的主。 他在你中间必因你欢欣喜乐， 默然爱你，且因你喜乐而欢呼。

yē hé huá — nǐ de shén shì shī xíng zhěng jiù 、 dà yǒu néng lì de zhǔ 。 tā zài nǐ zhōng jiān bì yīn nǐ huān xīn xǐ lè ， mò rán ài nǐ ， qiě yīn nǐ xǐ lè ér huān hū 。

The LORD, your God, is among you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will calm you in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.

那些属你、为无大会愁烦、 因你担当羞辱的，我必聚集他们。

nà xiē shǔ nǐ 、 wèi wú dà huì chóu fán 、 yīn nǐ dān dāng xiū rǔ de ， wǒ bì jù jí tā men 。

I will remove those who grieve about the appointed feasts from you. They are a burden and a reproach to you.

那时，我必罚办一切苦待你的人， 又拯救你瘸腿的，聚集你被赶出的。 那些在全地受羞辱的， 我必使他们得称赞，有名声。

nà shí ， wǒ bì fá bàn yí qiè kǔ dài nǐ de rén ， yòu zhěng jiù nǐ qué tuǐ de ， jù jí nǐ bèi gǎn chū de 。 nà xiē zài quán dì shòu xiū rǔ de ， wǒ bì shǐ tā men dé chēng zàn ， yǒu míng shēng 。

Behold, at that time I will deal with all those who afflict you; and I will save those who are lame and gather those who were driven away. I will give them praise and honor, whose shame has been in all the earth.

那时，我必领你们进来，聚集你们； 我使你们被掳之人归回的时候， 就必使你们在地上的万民中有名声，得称赞。 这是耶和华说的。

nà shí ， wǒ bì lǐng nǐ men jìn lái ， jù jí nǐ men ； wǒ shǐ nǐ men bèi lǔ zhī rén guī huí de shí hòu ， jiù bì shǐ nǐ men zài dì shàng de wàn mín zhōng yǒu míng shēng ， dé chēng zàn 。 zhè shì yē hé huá shuō de 。

At that time I will bring you in, and at that time I will gather you; for I will give you honor and praise among all the peoples of the earth when I restore your fortunes before your eyes, says the LORD.
