耶利米书 16

耶和华的话又临到我说：

yē hé huá de huà yòu lín dào wǒ shuō ：

Then the LORD’s word came to me, saying,

「你在这地方不可娶妻，生儿养女。

「 nǐ zài zhè dì fāng bù kě qǔ qī ， shēng ér yǎng nǚ 。

“You shall not take a wife, neither shall you have sons or daughters, in this place.”

因为论到在这地方所生的儿女，又论到在这国中生养他们的父母，耶和华如此说：

yīn wèi lùn dào zài zhè dì fāng suǒ shēng de ér nǚ ， yòu lùn dào zài zhè guó zhōng shēng yǎng tā men de fù mǔ ， yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ：

For the LORD says concerning the sons and concerning the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them, and concerning their fathers who became their father in this land:

他们必死得甚苦，无人哀哭，必不得葬埋，必在地上像粪土，必被刀剑和饥荒灭绝；他们的尸首必给空中的飞鸟和地上的野兽作食物。」

tā men bì sǐ dé shèn kǔ ， wú rén āi kū ， bì bù dé zàng mái ， bì zài dì shàng xiàng fèn tǔ ， bì bèi dāo jiàn hé jī huāng miè jué ； tā men de shī shǒu bì gěi kōng zhōng de fēi niǎo hé dì shàng de yě shòu zuò shí wù 。」

“They will die grievous deaths. They will not be lamented, neither will they be buried. They will be as dung on the surface of the ground. They will be consumed by the sword and by famine. Their dead bodies will be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.”

耶和华如此说：「不要进入丧家，不要去哀哭，也不要为他们悲伤，因我已将我的平安、慈爱、怜悯从这百姓夺去了。这是耶和华说的。

yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ：「 bú yào jìn rù sàng jiā ， bú yào qù āi kū ， yě bú yào wèi tā men bēi shāng ， yīn wǒ yǐ jiāng wǒ de píng ān 、 cí ài 、 lián mǐn cóng zhè bǎi xìng duó qù le 。 zhè shì yē hé huá shuō de 。

For the LORD says, “Don’t enter into the house of mourning. Don’t go to lament. Don’t bemoan them, for I have taken away my peace from this people,” says the LORD, “even loving kindness and tender mercies.

连大带小，都必在这地死亡，不得葬埋。人必不为他们哀哭，不用刀划身，也不使头光秃。

lián dà dài xiǎo ， dōu bì zài zhè dì sǐ wáng ， bù dé zàng mái 。 rén bì bú wèi tā men āi kū ， bú yòng dāo huà shēn ， yě bù shǐ tóu guāng tū 。

Both great and small will die in this land. They will not be buried. Men won’t lament for them, cut themselves, or make themselves bald for them.

他们有丧事，人必不为他们擘饼，因死人安慰他们；他们丧父丧母，人也不给他们一杯酒安慰他们。

tā men yǒu sāng shì ， rén bì bú wèi tā men bò bǐng ， yīn sǐ rén ān wèi tā men ； tā men sàng fù sàng mǔ ， rén yě bù gěi tā men yì bēi jiǔ ān wèi tā men 。

Men won’t break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead. Men won’t give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.

你不可进入宴乐的家，与他们同坐吃喝。

nǐ bù kě jìn rù yàn lè de jiā ， yǔ tā men tóng zuò chī hē 。

“You shall not go into the house of feasting to sit with them, to eat and to drink.”

因为万军之耶和华—以色列的 神如此说：你们还活着的日子在你们眼前，我必使欢喜和快乐的声音，新郎和新妇的声音，从这地方止息了。

yīn wèi wàn jūn zhī yē hé huá — yǐ sè liè de shén rú cǐ shuō ： nǐ men hái huó zhe de rì zi zài nǐ men yǎn qián ， wǒ bì shǐ huān xǐ hé kuài lè de shēng yīn ， xīn láng hé xīn fù de shēng yīn ， cóng zhè dì fāng zhǐ xī le 。

For the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes and in your days, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.

「你将这一切的话指示这百姓。他们问你说：『耶和华为什么说，要降这大灾祸攻击我们呢？我们有什么罪孽呢？我们向耶和华—我们的 神犯了什么罪呢？』

「 nǐ jiāng zhè yí qiè de huà zhǐ shì zhè bǎi xìng 。 tā men wèn nǐ shuō ：『 yē hé huá wèi shén me shuō ， yào jiàng zhè dà zāi huò gōng jī wǒ men ne ？ wǒ men yǒu shén me zuì niè ne ？ wǒ men xiàng yē hé huá — wǒ men de shén fàn le shén me zuì ne ？』

It will happen, when you tell this people all these words, and they ask you, ‘Why has the LORD pronounced all this great evil against us?’ or ‘What is our iniquity?’ or ‘What is our sin that we have committed against the LORD our God?’

你就对他们说：『耶和华说：因为你们列祖离弃我，随从别神，事奉敬拜，不遵守我的律法，

nǐ jiù duì tā men shuō ：『 yē hé huá shuō ： yīn wèi nǐ men liè zǔ lí qì wǒ ， suí cóng bié shén ， shì fèng jìng bài ， bù zūn shǒu wǒ de lǜ fǎ ，

then you shall tell them, ‘Because your fathers have forsaken me,’ says the LORD, ‘and have walked after other gods, have served them, have worshiped them, have forsaken me, and have not kept my law.

而且你们行恶比你们列祖更甚；因为各人随从自己顽梗的恶心行事，甚至不听从我，

ér qiě nǐ men xíng è bǐ nǐ men liè zǔ gèng shèn ； yīn wèi gè rén suí cóng zì jǐ wán gěng de ě xīn xíng shì ， shèn zhì bù tīng cóng wǒ ，

You have done evil more than your fathers, for behold, you each walk after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so that you don’t listen to me.

所以我必将你们从这地赶出，直赶到你们和你们列祖素不认识的地。你们在那里必昼夜事奉别神，因为我必不向你们施恩。』」

suǒ yǐ wǒ bì jiāng nǐ men cóng zhè dì gǎn chū ， zhí gǎn dào nǐ men hé nǐ men liè zǔ sù bú rèn shi de dì 。 nǐ men zài nà lǐ bì zhòu yè shì fèng bié shén ， yīn wèi wǒ bì bú xiàng nǐ men shī ēn 。』」

Therefore I will cast you out of this land into the land that you have not known, neither you nor your fathers. There you will serve other gods day and night, for I will show you no favor.’

耶和华说：「日子将到，人必不再指着那领以色列人从埃及地上来之永生的耶和华起誓，

yē hé huá shuō ：「 rì zi jiāng dào ， rén bì bú zài zhǐ zhe nà lǐng yǐ sè liè rén cóng āi jí dì shàng lái zhī yǒng shēng de yē hé huá qǐ shì ，

“Therefore behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that it will no more be said, ‘As the LORD lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;’

却要指着那领以色列人从北方之地，并赶他们到的各国上来之永生的耶和华起誓，并且我要领他们再入我从前赐给他们列祖之地。」

què yào zhǐ zhe nà lǐng yǐ sè liè rén cóng běi fāng zhī dì ， bìng gǎn tā men dào de gè guó shàng lái zhī yǒng shēng de yē hé huá qǐ shì ， bìng qiě wǒ yào lǐng tā men zài rù wǒ cóng qián cì gěi tā men liè zǔ zhī dì 。」

but, ‘As the LORD lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had driven them.’ I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers.

耶和华说：「我要召许多打鱼的把以色列人打上来，然后我要召许多打猎的，从各山上、各冈上、各石穴中猎取他们。

yē hé huá shuō ：「 wǒ yào zhào xǔ duō dǎ yú de bǎ yǐ sè liè rén dǎ shàng lái ， rán hòu wǒ yào zhào xǔ duō dǎ liè de ， cóng gè shān shàng 、 gè gāng shàng 、 gè shí xué zhōng liè qǔ tā men 。

“Behold, I will send for many fishermen,” says the LORD, “and they will fish them up. Afterward I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them from every mountain, from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.

因我的眼目察看他们的一切行为；他们不能在我面前遮掩，他们的罪孽也不能在我眼前隐藏。

yīn wǒ de yǎn mù chá kàn tā men de yí qiè xíng wéi ； tā men bù néng zài wǒ miàn qián zhē yǎn ， tā men de zuì niè yě bù néng zài wǒ yǎn qián yǐn cáng 。

For my eyes are on all their ways. They are not hidden from my face. Their iniquity isn’t concealed from my eyes.

我先要加倍报应他们的罪孽和罪恶；因为他们用可憎之尸玷污我的地土，又用可厌之物充满我的产业。」

wǒ xiān yào jiā bèi bào yìng tā men de zuì niè hé zuì è ； yīn wèi tā men yòng kě zēng zhī shī diàn wū wǒ de dì tǔ ， yòu yòng kě yàn zhī wù chōng mǎn wǒ de chǎn yè 。」

First I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have polluted my land with the carcasses of their detestable things, and have filled my inheritance with their abominations.”

耶和华啊，你是我的力量， 是我的保障； 在苦难之日是我的避难所。 列国人必从地极来到你这里， 说：我们列祖所承受的， 不过是虚假，是虚空无益之物。

yē hé huá a ， nǐ shì wǒ de lì liàng ， shì wǒ de bǎo zhàng ； zài kǔ nàn zhī rì shì wǒ de bì nàn suǒ 。 liè guó rén bì cóng dì jí lái dào nǐ zhè lǐ ， shuō ： wǒ men liè zǔ suǒ chéng shòu de ， bú guò shì xū jiǎ ， shì xū kōng wú yì zhī wù 。

LORD, my strength, my stronghold, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the nations will come to you from the ends of the earth, and will say, “Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, vanity and things in which there is no profit.

人岂可为自己制造神呢？ 其实这不是神。

rén qǐ kě wèi zì jǐ zhì zào shén ne ？ qí shí zhè bú shì shén 。

Should a man make to himself gods which yet are no gods?”

耶和华说：「我要使他们知道，就是这一次使他们知道我的手和我的能力。他们就知道我的名是耶和华了。」

yē hé huá shuō ：「 wǒ yào shǐ tā men zhī dào ， jiù shì zhè yí cì shǐ tā men zhī dào wǒ de shǒu hé wǒ de néng lì 。 tā men jiù zhī dào wǒ de míng shì yē hé huá le 。」

“Therefore behold, I will cause them to know, this once I will cause them to know my hand and my might. Then they will know that my name is the LORD.”
