耶利米書 17

猶大的罪是用鐵筆、用金鋼鑽記錄的，銘刻在他們的心版上和壇角上。

yóu dà de zuì shì yòng tiě bǐ 、 yòng jīn gāng zuàn jì lù de ， míng kè zài tā men de xīn bǎn shàng hé tán jiǎo shàng 。

“The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond. It is engraved on the tablet of their heart, and on the horns of your altars.

他們的兒女記念他們高岡上、青翠樹旁的壇和木偶。

tā men de ér nǚ jì niàn tā men gāo gāng shàng 、 qīng cuì shù páng de tán hé mù ǒu 。

Even their children remember their altars and their Asherah poles by the green trees on the high hills.

我田野的山哪，我必因你在四境之內所犯的罪，把你的貨物、財寶，並邱壇當掠物交給仇敵；

wǒ tián yě de shān nǎ ， wǒ bì yīn nǐ zài sì jìng zhī nèi suǒ fàn de zuì ， bǎ nǐ de huò wù 、 cái bǎo ， bìng qiū tán dāng lüè wù jiāo gěi chóu dí ；

My mountain in the field, I will give your substance and all your treasures for a plunder, and your high places, because of sin, throughout all your borders.

並且你因自己的罪必失去我所賜給你的產業。我也必使你在你所不認識的地上服事你的仇敵；因為你使我怒中起火，直燒到永遠。

bìng qiě nǐ yīn zì jǐ de zuì bì shī qù wǒ suǒ cì gěi nǐ de chǎn yè 。 wǒ yě bì shǐ nǐ zài nǐ suǒ bú rèn shi de dì shàng fú shì nǐ de chóu dí ； yīn wèi nǐ shǐ wǒ nù zhōng qǐ huǒ ， zhí shāo dào yǒng yuǎn 。

You, even of yourself, will discontinue from your heritage that I gave you. I will cause you to serve your enemies in the land which you don’t know, for you have kindled a fire in my anger which will burn forever.”

耶和華如此說： 倚靠人血肉的膀臂， 心中離棄耶和華的， 那人有禍了！

yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ： yǐ kào rén xuè ròu de bǎng bì ， xīn zhōng lí qì yē hé huá de ， nà rén yǒu huò le ！

The LORD says: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man, relies on strength of flesh, and whose heart departs from the LORD.

因他必像沙漠的杜松， 不見福樂來到， 卻要住曠野乾旱之處， 無人居住的鹼地。

yīn tā bì xiàng shā mò de dù sōng ， bú jiàn fú lè lái dào ， què yào zhù kuàng yě gān hàn zhī chù ， wú rén jū zhù de jiǎn dì 。

For he will be like a bush in the desert, and will not see when good comes, but will inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, an uninhabited salt land.

倚靠耶和華、以耶和華為可靠的， 那人有福了！

yǐ kào yē hé huá 、 yǐ yē hé huá wèi kě kào de ， nà rén yǒu fú le ！

“Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose confidence is in the LORD.

他必像樹栽於水旁， 在河邊扎根， 炎熱來到，並不懼怕， 葉子仍必青翠， 在乾旱之年毫無掛慮， 而且結果不止。

tā bì xiàng shù zāi yú shuǐ páng ， zài hé biān zhā gēn ， yán rè lái dào ， bìng bú jù pà ， yè zǐ réng bì qīng cuì ， zài gān hàn zhī nián háo wú guà lǜ ， ér qiě jié guǒ bù zhǐ 。

For he will be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes, but its leaf will be green, and will not be concerned in the year of drought. It won’t cease from yielding fruit.

人心比萬物都詭詐， 壞到極處， 誰能識透呢？

rén xīn bǐ wàn wù dōu guǐ zhà ， huài dào jí chù ， shuí néng shí tòu ne ？

The heart is deceitful above all things and it is exceedingly corrupt. Who can know it?

我－耶和華是鑒察人心、試驗人肺腑的， 要照各人所行的和他做事的結果報應他。

wǒ — yē hé huá shì jiàn chá rén xīn 、 shì yàn rén fèi fǔ de ， yào zhào gè rén suǒ xíng de hé tā zuò shì de jié guǒ bào yìng tā 。

“I, the LORD, search the mind. I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.”

那不按正道得財的， 好像鷓鴣菢不是自己下的蛋； 到了中年，那財都必離開他， 他終久成為愚頑人。

nà bú àn zhèng dào dé cái de ， hǎo xiàng zhè gū bào bú shì zì jǐ xià de dàn ； dào le zhōng nián ， nà cái dōu bì lí kāi tā ， tā zhōng jiǔ chéng wéi yú wán rén 。

As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right. In the middle of his days, they will leave him. At his end, he will be a fool.

我們的聖所是榮耀的寶座， 從太初安置在高處。

wǒ men de shèng suǒ shì róng yào de bǎo zuò ， cóng tài chū ān zhì zài gāo chù 。

A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.

耶和華－以色列的盼望啊， 凡離棄你的必致蒙羞。 耶和華說：離開我的， 他們的名字必寫在土裏， 因為他們離棄我這活水的泉源。

yē hé huá — yǐ sè liè de pàn wàng a ， fán lí qì nǐ de bì zhì méng xiū 。 yē hé huá shuō ： lí kāi wǒ de ， tā men de míng zì bì xiě zài tǔ lǐ ， yīn wèi tā men lí qì wǒ zhè huó shuǐ de quán yuán 。

LORD, the hope of Israel, all who forsake you will be disappointed. Those who depart from me will be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the spring of living waters.

耶和華啊，求你醫治我，我便痊癒， 拯救我，我便得救； 因你是我所讚美的。

yē hé huá a ， qiú nǐ yī zhì wǒ ， wǒ biàn quán yù ， zhěng jiù wǒ ， wǒ biàn dé jiù ； yīn nǐ shì wǒ suǒ zàn měi de 。

Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed. Save me, and I will be saved; for you are my praise.

他們對我說：耶和華的話在哪裏呢？ 叫這話應驗吧！

tā men duì wǒ shuō ： yē hé huá de huà zài nǎ lǐ ne ？ jiào zhè huà yìng yàn ba ！

Behold, they ask me, “Where is the LORD’s word? Let it be fulfilled now.”

至於我，那跟從你作牧人的職分， 我並沒有急忙離棄， 也沒有想那災殃的日子； 這是你知道的。 我口中所出的言語都在你面前。

zhì yú wǒ ， nà gēn cóng nǐ zuò mù rén de zhí fēn ， wǒ bìng méi yǒu jí máng lí qì ， yě méi yǒu xiǎng nà zāi yāng de rì zǐ ； zhè shì nǐ zhī dào de 。 wǒ kǒu zhōng suǒ chū de yán yǔ dōu zài nǐ miàn qián 。

As for me, I have not hurried from being a shepherd after you. I haven’t desired the woeful day. You know. That which came out of my lips was before your face.

不要使我因你驚恐； 當災禍的日子，你是我的避難所。

bú yào shǐ wǒ yīn nǐ jīng kǒng ； dāng zāi huò de rì zi ， nǐ shì wǒ de bì nàn suǒ 。

Don’t be a terror to me. You are my refuge in the day of evil.

願那些逼迫我的蒙羞， 卻不要使我蒙羞； 使他們驚惶， 卻不要使我驚惶； 使災禍的日子臨到他們， 以加倍的毀壞毀壞他們。

yuàn nà xiē bī pò wǒ de méng xiū ， què bú yào shǐ wǒ méng xiū ； shǐ tā men jīng huáng ， què bú yào shǐ wǒ jīng huáng ； shǐ zāi huò de rì zi lín dào tā men ， yǐ jiā bèi de huǐ huài huǐ huài tā men 。

Let them be disappointed who persecute me, but don’t let me be disappointed. Let them be dismayed, but don’t let me be dismayed. Bring on them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.

耶和華對我如此說：「你去站在平民的門口，就是猶大君王出入的門，又站在耶路撒冷的各門口，

yē hé huá duì wǒ rú cǐ shuō ：「 nǐ qù zhàn zài píng mín de mén kǒu ， jiù shì yóu dà jūn wáng chū rù de mén ， yòu zhàn zài yē lù sā lěng de gè mén kǒu ，

The LORD said this to me: “Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, through which the kings of Judah come in and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.

對他們說：『你們這猶大君王和猶大眾人，並耶路撒冷的一切居民，凡從這些門進入的都當聽耶和華的話。

duì tā men shuō ：『 nǐ men zhè yóu dà jūn wáng hé yóu dà zhòng rén ， bìng yē lù sā lěng de yí qiè jū mín ， fán cóng zhè xiē mén jìn rù de dōu dāng tīng yē hé huá de huà 。

Tell them, ‘Hear the LORD’s word, you kings of Judah, all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:

耶和華如此說：你們要謹慎，不要在安息日擔甚麼擔子進入耶路撒冷的各門；

yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ： nǐ men yào jǐn shèn ， bú yào zài ān xī rì dān shén me dàn zi jìn rù yē lù sā lěng de gè mén ；

The LORD says, “Be careful, and bear no burden on the Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem.

也不要在安息日從家中擔出擔子去。無論何工都不可做，只要以安息日為聖日，正如我所吩咐你們列祖的。』

yě bú yào zài ān xī rì cóng jiā zhōng dān chū dàn zi qù 。 wú lùn hé gōng dōu bù kě zuò ， zhǐ yào yǐ ān xī rì wèi shèng rì ， zhèng rú wǒ suǒ fēn fù nǐ men liè zǔ de 。』

Don’t carry a burden out of your houses on the Sabbath day. Don’t do any work, but make the Sabbath day holy, as I commanded your fathers.

他們卻不聽從，不側耳而聽，竟硬着頸項不聽，不受教訓。」

tā men què bù tīng cóng ， bú cè ěr ér tīng ， jìng yìng zhe jǐng xiàng bù tīng ， bú shòu jiào xùn 。」

But they didn’t listen. They didn’t turn their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.

耶和華說：「你們若留意聽從我，在安息日不擔甚麼擔子進入這城的各門，只以安息日為聖日，在那日無論何工都不做；

yē hé huá shuō ：「 nǐ men ruò liú yì tīng cóng wǒ ， zài ān xī rì bù dān shén me dàn zi jìn rù zhè chéng de gè mén ， zhī yǐ ān xī rì wèi shèng rì ， zài nà rì wú lùn hé gōng dōu bú zuò ；

It will happen, if you diligently listen to me,” says the LORD, “to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, but to make the Sabbath day holy, to do no work therein;

那時就有坐大衛寶座的君王和首領，他們與猶大人，並耶路撒冷的居民，或坐車，或騎馬，進入這城的各門，而且這城必存到永遠。

nà shí jiù yǒu zuò dà wèi bǎo zuò de jūn wáng hé shǒu lǐng ， tā men yǔ yóu dà rén ， bìng yē lù sā lěng de jū mín ， huò zuò chē ， huò qí mǎ ， jìn rù zhè chéng de gè mén ， ér qiě zhè chéng bì cún dào yǒng yuǎn 。

then there will enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on David’s throne, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their princes, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and this city will remain forever.

也必有人從猶大城邑和耶路撒冷四圍的各處，從便雅憫地、高原、山地，並南地而來，都帶燔祭、平安祭、素祭，和乳香，並感謝祭，到耶和華的殿去。

yě bì yǒu rén cóng yóu dài chéng yì hé yē lù sā lěng sì wéi de gè chù ， cóng biàn yǎ mǐn dì 、 gāo yuán 、 shān dì ， bìng nán dì ér lái ， dōu dài fán jì 、 píng ān jì 、 sù jì ， hé rǔ xiāng ， bìng gǎn xiè jì ， dào yē hé huá de diàn qù 。

They will come from the cities of Judah, and from the places around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, from the lowland, from the hill country, and from the South, bringing burnt offerings, sacrifices, meal offerings, and frankincense, and bringing sacrifices of thanksgiving to the LORD’s house.

你們若不聽從我，不以安息日為聖日，仍在安息日擔擔子，進入耶路撒冷的各門，我必在各門中點火；這火也必燒毀耶路撒冷的宮殿，不能熄滅。」

nǐ men ruò bù tīng cóng wǒ ， bù yǐ ān xī rì wèi shèng rì ， réng zài ān xī rì dān dàn zi ， jìn rù yē lù sā lěng de gè mén ， wǒ bì zài gè mén zhōng diǎn huǒ ； zhè huǒ yě bì shāo huǐ yē lù sā lěng de gōng diàn ， bù néng xī miè 。」

But if you will not listen to me to make the Sabbath day holy, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in its gates, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem. It will not be quenched.”’”
