申命记 32
1 诸天哪，侧耳，我要说话； 愿地也听我口中的言语。
Give ear O ye heavens and I will speak, And let the earth hear the sayings of my mouth:
2 我的教训要淋漓如雨； 我的言语要滴落如露， 如细雨降在嫩草上， 如甘霖降在菜蔬中。
Let my teaching drop as the rain, Let my speech distil as the dew, —As copious rains on tender grass, As myriad drops on seeding plants.
3 我要宣告耶和华的名； 你们要将大德归与我们的 神。
When, the name of Yahweh, I proclaim, Ascribe ye greatness unto our God: —
4 他是磐石，他的作为完全； 他所行的无不公平， 是诚实无伪的 神， 又公义，又正直。
A Rock! faultless his work, For, all his ways, are just, A GOD of faithfulness and without perversity, Right and fair, is he!
5 这乖僻弯曲的世代向他行事邪僻； 有这弊病就不是他的儿女。
They have broken faith with him to be no sons of his—their fault, —A generation twisted and crooked.
6 愚昧无知的民哪，你们这样报答耶和华吗？ 他岂不是你的父、将你买来的吗？ 他是制造你、建立你的。
Is it Yahweh, ye thus requite, O impious people and unwise? Is not, he, thy father who begat thee? He, that made thee and established thee?
7 你当追想上古之日， 思念历代之年； 问你的父亲，他必指示你； 问你的长者，他必告诉你。
Remember the days of age-past times, Remark the years of many generations, —Ask thy father and he will tell thee, Thine elders and they will say to thee: —
8 至高者将地业赐给列邦，将世人分开， 就照以色列人的数目立定万民的疆界。
When the Most High gave inheritances unto the nations, When he spread abroad the sons of Adam, He set the bounds of the peoples, According to the number of the sons of Israel.
9 耶和华的分本是他的百姓； 他的产业本是雅各。
For, Yahweh’s portion is his people, —Jacob, his inherited possession.
10 耶和华遇见他在旷野— 荒凉野兽吼叫之地， 就环绕他，看顾他， 保护他，如同保护眼中的瞳人。
He met him in a desert land, And in the howling waste of a wilderness, —He encompassed him watched over him, Shielded him as the pupil of his own eye.
11 又如鹰搅动巢窝， 在雏鹰以上两翅搧展， 接取雏鹰，背在两翼之上。
As, an eagle, stirreth up his nest, Over his young ones, fluttereth, Spreadeth abroad his wings, taketh one, Beareth it up on his pinions,
12 这样，耶和华独自引导他， 并无外邦神与他同在。
Yahweh alone did lead him, —And there was with him no GOD of a stranger.
13 耶和华使他乘驾地的高处， 得吃田间的土产； 又使他从磐石中咂蜜， 从坚石中吸油；
He made him ride on the high places of the land, Caused him to eat the increase of the fields, —And gave him to suck honey out of the cliff, And oil out of the rock of flint:
14 也吃牛的奶油， 羊的奶，羊羔的脂油， 巴珊所出的公绵羊和山羊， 与上好的麦子， 也喝葡萄汁酿的酒。
Curds of kine and milk of sheep, —With fat of well-fed lambs, Yea rams bred in Bashan, and he-goats, With the white of the kernels of wheat, —And, the blood of the grape, thou didst drink as it foamed.
15 但耶书 渐渐肥胖，粗壮， 光润，踢跳，奔跑， 便离弃造他的 神， 轻看救他的磐石；
Then Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: Thou wast fat, Thou wast thick, Thou wast gorged, So he forsook the GOD who made him, And treated as foolish his Rock of salvation.
16 敬拜别神，触动 神的愤恨， 行可憎恶的事，惹了他的怒气。
They moved him to jealousy with foreign [gods], —With abominations, angered they him:
17 所祭祀的鬼魔并非真神， 乃是素不认识的神， 是近来新兴的， 是你列祖所不畏惧的。
They sacrificed to mischievous demons to a No-GOD, Gods whom they knew not, —New ones lately come in, Your fathers never shuddered at them!
18 你轻忽生你的磐石， 忘记产你的 神。
Of the Rock who had begotten thee, thou wast unmindful, —And didst forget GOD who had given thee birth.
19 耶和华看见他的儿女惹动他， 就厌恶他们，说：
When Yahweh saw, he derided, —Because his sons and his daughters gave provocation.
20 我要向他们掩面， 看他们的结局如何。 他们本是极乖僻的族类， 心中无诚实的儿女。
So he said: —I will hide my face from them, I will see what will be their hereafter, —For a generation given to intrigue, they are, Sons, whom there is no trusting;
21 他们以那“不算为神”的触动我的愤恨， 以虚无的神惹了我的怒气。 我也要以那“不成子民”的触动他们的愤恨， 以愚昧的国民惹了他们的怒气。
They have moved me to jealousy with a No-GOD, They have angered me with their vanities: I, therefore, will move them to jealousy with a No-people, With an impious nation, will I anger them.
For, a fire, is kindled in mine anger, And shall burn as far as hades beneath, —And consume the earth with her produce, And set ablaze the foundations of the mountains: (Sheol h7585)
23 我要将祸患堆在他们身上， 把我的箭向他们射尽。
I will heap on them, calamities, —Mine arrows, will I spend upon them:
24 他们必因饥饿消瘦， 被炎热苦毒吞灭。 我要打发野兽用牙齿咬他们， 并土中腹行的，用毒气害他们。
The meltings of hunger, The devourings of fever, And the dangerous pestilence, —And, the tooth of beasts, will I send among them, With the poison of crawlers of the dust:
25 外头有刀剑，内室有惊恐， 使人丧亡，使少男、童女、 吃奶的、白发的，尽都灭绝。
Without, shall the sword bereave, In the inmost recesses, terror, —To both young man and virgin, Suckling, with man of grey hairs.
26 我说，我必将他们分散远方， 使他们的名号从人间除灭。
I said, I would puff them away, I would destroy from mortals, their memory;
27 惟恐仇敌惹动我， 只怕敌人错看，说：是我们手的能力， 并非耶和华所行的。
Were it not that the taunt of the foe, I feared, Lest their adversaries should mistake, —Lest they should say—Our own hand, is exalted, It is not Yahweh, therefore who hath wrought all this!
28 因为以色列民毫无计谋， 心中没有聪明。
For a nation of vanished sagacity, they are, —And there is in them no understanding.
29 惟愿他们有智慧， 能明白这事，肯思念他们的结局。
If they had been wise, they would have understood this, —They would have given heed to their here-after!
30 若不是他们的磐石卖了他们， 若不是耶和华交出他们， 一人焉能追赶他们千人？ 二人焉能使万人逃跑呢？
Oh! how would one, have chased, a thousand! And, two, put, ten thousand to flight, —Were it not that their Rock had sold them, And, Yahweh, had abandoned them;
31 据我们的仇敌自己断定， 他们的磐石不如我们的磐石。
For, not like our Rock, is their rock, Our enemies themselves, being judges;
32 他们的葡萄树是所多玛的葡萄树， 蛾摩拉田园所生的； 他们的葡萄是毒葡萄， 全挂都是苦的。
For of the vine of Sodom, is their vine, And of the vineyards of Gomorrah, —Their grapes, are grapes of gall, Clusters of bitter things, are theirs:
33 他们的酒是大蛇的毒气， 是虺蛇残害的恶毒。
The poison of large serpents, is their wine, —Yea the fierce venom of asps.
34 这不都是积蓄在我这里， 封锁在我府库中吗？
Is not, that, stored up with me, —Sealed up amongst my treasures;
35 他们失脚的时候，伸冤报应在我； 因他们遭灾的日子近了； 那要临在他们身上的必速速来到。
Unto the days of vengeance and requital: Unto the time their foot shall totter? For, near, is the day of their fate, And their destiny speedeth on.
36 耶和华见他百姓毫无能力， 无论困住的、自由的都没有剩下， 就必为他们伸冤， 为他的仆人后悔。
For Yahweh will vindicate his people, And upon his servants, will have compassion, —When he seeth that strength is exhausted, And there is no one shut up or at large,
37 他必说：他们的神， 他们所投靠的磐石，
Then will he say, Where are their gods, The rock in whom they have trusted;
38 就是向来吃他们祭牲的脂油， 喝他们奠祭之酒的，在哪里呢？ 他可以兴起帮助你们， 护卫你们。
Who used to eat the fat of their sacrifices, To drink the wine of their libations? Let them rise up and help you, Let them be over you for a coveting!
39 你们如今要知道： 我，惟有我是 神； 在我以外并无别神。 我使人死，我使人活； 我损伤，我也医治， 并无人能从我手中救出来。
See, now, that, I, I, am, he that is, And there are no gods with me, —I, kill—and make alive, I wound and, I, heal, And there is none who, from my hand, can deliver,
40 我向天举手说： 我凭我的永生起誓：
For I lift up unto the heavens my hand, —And say, Living am, I, unto times age-abiding:
41 我若磨我闪亮的刀， 手掌审判之权， 就必报复我的敌人， 报应恨我的人。
If I whet my flashing sword, And my hand take hold on justice, I will return vengeance unto mine adversaries, And them who hate me, will I requite:
42 我要使我的箭饮血饮醉， 就是被杀被掳之人的血。 我的刀要吃肉， 乃是仇敌中首领之头的肉。
I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, And, my sword, shall devour flesh, —With the blood of the slain and the captive, With the flesh of the chief leader of the foe.
43 你们外邦人当与主的百姓一同欢呼； 因他要伸他仆人流血的冤， 报应他的敌人， 洁净他的地，救赎他的百姓。
Shout for joy O ye nations [with] his people, For the blood of his servants, he avengeth, —And, vengeance, he returneth unto his adversaries, And is propitious unto the soil of his people.
44 摩西和嫩的儿子约书亚去将这歌的一切话说给百姓听。
So Moses came in and spake all the words of this Song in the hearing of the people, —he and Hoshea son of Nun.
45 摩西向以色列众人说完了这一切的话，
And, when Moses made an end of speaking all these words unto all Israel,
46 又说：“我今日所警教你们的，你们都要放在心上；要吩咐你们的子孙谨守遵行这律法上的话。
he said unto them—Apply your hearts unto all the words which I am witnessing against you, to-day, —how that ye must command your sons to observe to do all the words of this law;
47 因为这不是虚空、与你们无关的事，乃是你们的生命；在你们过约旦河要得为业的地上必因这事日子得以长久。”
for it is not, too small a thing, for you, for, it, is your life, —and, hereby, shall ye prolong your days upon the soil whereunto ye are, passing over the Jordan to possess it.
48 当日，耶和华吩咐摩西说：
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, on this selfsame day, saying:
49 “你上这亚巴琳山中的尼波山去，在摩押地与耶利哥相对，观看我所要赐给以色列人为业的迦南地。
Get thee up into this mountain of the Abarim, Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, which is over against Jericho—and behold the land of Canaan which I am giving unto the sons of Israel, for a possession;
50 你必死在你所登的山上，归你列祖去，像你哥哥亚伦死在何珥山上，归他的列祖一样。
and die thou in the mount whither thou art going up, and be withdrawn unto thy kinsfolk, —as Aaron thy brother died in Mount Hor, and was withdrawn unto his kinsfolk;
51 因为你们在寻的旷野，加低斯的米利巴水，在以色列人中没有尊我为圣，得罪了我。
for that ye acted unfaithfully against me in the midst of the sons of Israel, regarding the waters of Meribah-Kadesh in the desert of Zin, —for that ye hallowed me not in the midst of the sons of Israel.
52 我所赐给以色列人的地，你可以远远地观看，却不得进去。”
Yet, over against thee, shalt thou behold the land, —but thereinto, shalt thou not enter, into the land which I am giving unto the sons of Israel.
