彌迦書 1
1 猶大不約堂、阿哈次和希則克雅年間，上主的話傳給摩勒舍特人米該亞；以下如果他關於撒馬黎雅和耶路撒冷所見的聖視：
The word of the Lord, that came vnto Micah the Morashite in the dayes of Iotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah Kings of Iudah, which he sawe concerning Samaria, and Ierusalem.
2 眾民族，你們請聽! 大地和充乎其間的萬物，你們側耳傾聽! 吾主上主要作証反抗你們，吾主已離開了衪的聖殿。
Heare, al ye people: hearke thou, O earth, and all that therein is, and let the Lord God be witnes against you, euen ye Lord from his holy Teple.
3 看，上主已離開自己的居所下降，踏著大地高處前行。
For beholde, the Lord commeth out of his place, and will come downe, and tread vpon the hie places of the earth.
4 在衪腳下，諸山銷鎔，諸谷分裂，有如蠟在火前，有如冰瀉斜坡。
And the mountaines shall melt vnder him (so shall the valleys cleaue) as waxe before the fire, and as the waters that are powred downewarde.
5 這一切都是因為雅各伯的邪惡，猶大家的罪過。雅各伯的邪惡是什麼﹖不就是撒馬黎雅﹖猶大的罪過是什麼﹖不就是耶路撒冷﹖
For the wickednes of Iaakob is all this, and for the sinnes of the house of Israel: what is the wickednes of Iaakob? Is not Samaria? and which are the hie places of Iudah? Is not Ierusalem?
6 我必要使撒馬黎雅變為田野中的廢墟，化為栽植葡萄的園地；我要把她的石頭投入山谷，暴露她的基礎。
Therefore I wil make Samaria as an heape of the fielde, and for the planting of a vineyard, and I will cause the stones thereof to tumble downe into the valley, and I will discouer the foundations thereof.
7 她的一切雕像必被打碎；她的一切淫資必被火燒盡；她的一切偶像，我必使之變為廢物，因為偶像是聚合娼妓淫資做成的，將再轉為娼妓的淫資。
And all the grauen images thereof shalbe broken, and all the giftes thereof shalbe burnt with the fire, and all the idoles thereof will I destroy: for she gathered it of the hire of an harlot, and they shall returne to the wages of an harlot.
8 為此，我要哀號悲鳴，我要赤足裸體而行；哀號若豺狼，悲鳴如駝鳥；
Therefore I will mourne and howle: I wil goe without clothes, and naked: I will make lamentation like the dragons, and mourning as the ostriches.
9 因為撒馬黎雅的創傷無法醫治，且已廷及猶大，逼近我的門口，直達耶路撒冷。
For her plagues are grieuous: for it is come into Iudah: the enemie is come vnto the gate of my people, vnto Ierusalem.
10 你們在加達不要歡樂，在隨苛要慟哭，在貝特敖斐勒，要輾轉於灰塵之中。
Declare ye it not at Gath, neither weepe ye: for the house of Aphrah roule thy selfe in the dust.
11 沙非爾的居民! 人已向你吹起了號角；匝南的居民，不要走出自己的城! 在貝特厄責耳有了哭訴，因為人從你們手中奪去了立足之地。
Thou that dwellest at Shaphir, go together naked with shame: she that dwelleth at Zaanan, shall not come forth in ye mourning of Beth-ezel: the enemie shall receiue of you for his standing.
12 災禍已由上主降於耶路撒冷門前，瑪洛特的居民還怎能希望幸福﹖
For the inhabitant of Maroth wayted for good, but euill came from the Lord vnto the gate of Ierusalem.
13 拉基士的居民，你們要以快馬駕車! 你們是熙雍子女犯罪的開端，因為在你們中間找出以色列罪惡的根源。
O thou inhabitant of Lachish, binde the charet to the beastes of price: she is the beginning of the sinne to the daughter of Zion: for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
14 摩勒舍特加特! 人要給你送來臨別的贈品；阿革齊布家為以色列君王，是一條變幻無常的溪流。
Therefore shalt thou giue presents to Moresheth Gath: the houses of Achzib shalbe as a lye to the Kings of Israel.
15 瑪勒沙的居民，征服者還要來你們這裏；的確，以色列的光榮阿杜蘭將要消逝!
Yet will I bring an heire vnto thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah, he shall come vnto Adullam, the glorie of Israel.
16 熙雍女子! 妳應為了妳所愛的子女剃頭削髮，並要徹底使妳的頭光禿，有如一隻兀鷹，因為你們已由妳面前被擄去充軍。
Make thee balde: and shaue thee for thy delicate children: enlarge thy baldenesse as the eagle, for they are gone into captiuity from thee.
