耶利米书 11
1 耶和华的话临到耶利米说：
The word that was maad of the Lord to Jeremye,
2 “当听这约的话，告诉犹大人和耶路撒冷的居民，
and seide, Here ye the wordis of this couenaunt, and speke ye to the men of Juda, and to the dwelleris of Jerusalem; and thou schalt seie to hem,
3 对他们说，耶和华—以色列的 神如此说：不听从这约之话的人必受咒诅。
The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Cursid be the man that herith not the wordis of this couenaunt,
4 这约是我将你们列祖从埃及地领出来、脱离铁炉的那日所吩咐他们的，说：‘你们要听从我的话，照我一切所吩咐的去行。’这样，你们就作我的子民，我也作你们的 神；
which Y comaundide to youre fadris, in the dai in which Y ledde hem out of the lond of Egipt, fro the irone furneis; and Y seide, Here ye my vois, and do ye alle thingis whiche Y comaundide to you, and ye schulen be in to a puple to me, and Y schal be in to God to you;
5 我好坚定向你们列祖所起的誓，给他们流奶与蜜之地，正如今日一样。”我就回答说：“耶和华啊，阿们！”
that Y reise the ooth which Y swoor to youre fadris, that Y schulde yyue to hem a lond flowynge with mylk and hony, as this dai is. And Y answeride, and seide, Amen, Lord.
6 耶和华对我说：“你要在犹大城邑中和耶路撒冷街市上，宣告这一切话说：你们当听从遵行这约的话。
And the Lord seide to me, Crye thou alle these wordis in the citees of Juda, and with out Jerusalem, and seie thou, Here ye the wordis of this couenaunt, and do ye tho;
7 因为我将你们列祖从埃及地领出来的那日，直到今日，都是从早起来，切切告诫他们说：‘你们当听从我的话。’
for Y witnessynge haue witnessid to youre fadris, in the dai in which Y ledde hem out of the lond of Egipt, `til to this dai; Y roos eerli, and witnesside, and seide, Here ye my vois.
8 他们却不听从，不侧耳而听，竟随从自己顽梗的恶心去行。所以我使这约中一切咒诅的话临到他们身上；这约是我吩咐他们行的，他们却不去行。”
And thei herden not, nether bowiden doun her eere, but thei yeden forth ech man in the schrewidnesse of his yuel herte; and Y brouyte in on hem alle the wordis of this couenaunt, which Y comaundide that thei schulden do, and thei diden not.
9 耶和华对我说：“在犹大人和耶路撒冷居民中有同谋背叛的事。
And the Lord seide to me, Sweryng togidere is foundun in the men of Juda, and in the dwelleris of Jerusalem;
10 他们转去效法他们的先祖，不肯听我的话，犯罪作孽，又随从别神，事奉它。以色列家和犹大家背了我与他们列祖所立的约。”
thei turneden ayen to the formere wickidnessis of her fadris, that nolden here my wordis; and therfor these men yeden aftir alien goddis, for to serue hem; the hous of Israel and the hous of Juda maden voide my couenaunt, which Y made with the fadris of hem.
11 所以耶和华如此说：“我必使灾祸临到他们，是他们不能逃脱的。他们必向我哀求，我却不听。
Wherfor the Lord seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bringe in on hem yuels, of whiche thei schulen not mow go out; and thei schulen crie to me, and Y schal not here hem.
12 那时，犹大城邑的人和耶路撒冷的居民要去哀求他们烧香所供奉的神；只是遭难的时候，这些神毫不拯救他们。
And the citees of Juda and the dwellers of Jerusalem schulen go, and schulen crye to hem, to whiche thei offren sacrifices; and thei schulen not saue hem in the tyme of her turment.
13 犹大啊，你神的数目与你城的数目相等；你为那可耻的巴力所筑烧香的坛也与耶路撒冷街道的数目相等。
For thou, Juda, thi goddis weren bi the noumbre of thi citees, and thou settidist auters of schenschipe, bi the noumbre of the weies of Jerusalem, auters to offre sacrifices to Baalym.
14 “所以你不要为这百姓祈祷，不要为他们呼求祷告；因为他们遭难向我哀求的时候，我必不应允。
Therfor nyle thou preie for this puple, and take thou not heriyng and preier for hem; for Y schal not here in the tyme of the cry of hem to me, in the tyme of the turment of hem.
15 我所亲爱的，既行许多淫乱，圣肉也离了你，你在我殿中做什么呢？你作恶就喜乐。
What is it, that my derlyng doith many greet trespassis in myn hous? whether hooli fleischis schulen do awei fro thee thi malice, in which thou hast glorie?
16 从前耶和华给你起名叫青橄榄树，又华美又结好果子；如今他用哄嚷之声，点火在其上，枝子也被折断。
The Lord clepide thi name an olyue tre, fair, ful of fruyt, schapli; at the vois of a greet speche fier brent an hiy ther ynne, and the buyschis therof ben brent.
17 原来栽培你的万军之耶和华已经说，要降祸攻击你，是因以色列家和犹大家行恶，向巴力烧香，惹我发怒，是自作自受。”
And the Lord of oostis that plauntide thee, spak yuel on thee, for the yuels of the hous of Israel, and of the hous of Juda, whiche thei diden to hem silf, and offriden to Baalym, to terre me to wraththe.
18 耶和华指示我，我就知道； 你将他们所行的给我指明。
Forsothe, Lord, thou schewidist to me, and Y knew; thou schewidist to me the studies of hem.
19 我却像柔顺的羊羔被牵到宰杀之地； 我并不知道他们设计谋害我， 说：我们把树连果子都灭了吧！ 将他从活人之地剪除， 使他的名不再被纪念。
And Y am as a mylde lomb, which is borun to slayn sacrifice; and Y knew not, that thei thouyten counsels on me, and seiden, Sende we a tre in to the brede of hym, and rase we hym awei fro the lond of lyueris, and his name be no more hadde in mynde.
20 按公义判断、察验人肺腑心肠的万军之耶和华啊， 我却要见你在他们身上报仇， 因我将我的案件向你禀明了。
But thou, Lord of oostis, that demest iustli, and preuest reynes and hertis, se Y thi veniaunce of hem; for to thee Y schewide my cause.
21 所以，耶和华论到寻索你命的亚拿突人如此说：“他们说：你不要奉耶和华的名说预言，免得你死在我们手中。
Therfor the Lord seith these thingis to the men of Anathot, that seken thi lijf, and seien, Thou schalt not prophesie in the name of the Lord, and thou schalt not die in oure hondis.
22 所以万军之耶和华如此说：看哪，我必刑罚他们；他们的少年人必被刀剑杀死，他们的儿女必因饥荒灭亡，
Therfor the Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal visite on hem; the yonge men of hem schulen die bi swerd, the sones of hem and the douytris of hem schulen die for hungur;
23 并且没有余剩的人留给他们；因为在追讨之年，我必使灾祸临到亚拿突人。”
and no relifs, ether children abidynge, schulen be of hem; for Y schal bringe ynne yuel on the men of Anathot, the yeer of the visitacioun of hem.
