< 耶利米书 21 >
1 耶和华的话临到耶利米。那时,西底家王打发玛基雅的儿子巴施户珥和玛西雅的儿子祭司西番雅去见耶利米,说:
The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh when sent to him the king Zedekiah Pashhur [the] son of Malkijah and Zephaniah [the] son of Maaseiah the priest saying.
2 “请你为我们求问耶和华;因为巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒来攻击我们,或者耶和华照他一切奇妙的作为待我们,使巴比伦王离开我们上去。”
Seek please for us Yahweh for Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon [is] waging war on us perhaps he will do Yahweh with us according to all wonders his and he may go up from on us.
And he said Jeremiah to them thus you will say! to Zedekiah.
4 ‘耶和华—以色列的 神如此说:我要使你们手中的兵器,就是你们在城外与巴比伦王和围困你们的迦勒底人打仗的兵器翻转过来,又要使这些都聚集在这城中。
Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to turn round [the] weapons of war which [are] in hand your which you [are] fighting by them with [the] king of Babylon and with the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you from [the] outside of the wall and I will gather them into [the] middle of the city this.
5 并且我要在怒气、忿怒,和大恼恨中,用伸出来的手,并大能的膀臂,亲自攻击你们;
And I will fight I with you by a hand outstretched and by an arm strong and in anger and in rage and in wrath great.
6 又要击打这城的居民,连人带牲畜都必遭遇大瘟疫死亡。
And I will strike down [the] inhabitants of the city this and the humankind and the animal[s] by a pestilence great they will die.
7 以后我要将犹大王西底家和他的臣仆百姓,就是在城内,从瘟疫、刀剑、饥荒中剩下的人,都交在巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒的手中和他们仇敌,并寻索其命的人手中。巴比伦王必用刀击杀他们,不顾惜,不可怜,不怜悯。这是耶和华说的。’
And after thus [the] utterance of Yahweh I will give Zedekiah [the] king of Judah and servants his - and the people and those [who] remain in the city this from the pestilence - from the sword and from the famine in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of enemies their and in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and he will strike down them to [the] mouth of [the] sword not he will have mercy on them and not he will show pity and not he will have compassion.
8 “你要对这百姓说:‘耶和华如此说:看哪,我将生命的路和死亡的路摆在你们面前。
And to the people this you will say thus he says Yahweh here I [am] putting before you [the] way of life and [the] way of death.
9 住在这城里的必遭刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫而死;但出去归降围困你们迦勒底人的必得存活,要以自己的命为掠物。
The [one who] remains in the city this he will die by the sword and by famine and by pestilence and the [one who] goes out and he will fall on the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you (and he will live *Q(K)*) and it will belong to him life his to plunder.
10 耶和华说:我向这城变脸,降祸不降福;这城必交在巴比伦王的手中,他必用火焚烧。’”
For I have set face my on the city this for harm and not for good [the] utterance of Yahweh in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon it will be given and he will burn it with fire.
And to [the] house of [the] king of Judah hear [the] word of Yahweh.
12 大卫家啊,耶和华如此说: 你们每早晨要施行公平, 拯救被抢夺的脱离欺压人的手, 恐怕我的忿怒因你们的恶行发作, 如火着起,甚至无人能以熄灭。
O house of David thus he says Yahweh judge to the morning justice and deliver [one who] has been robbed from [the] hand of an oppressor lest it should go forth like fire rage my and it will burn and there not [will be one who] extinguishes because of [the] wickedness of (deeds your. *Q(K)*)
13 耶和华说:住山谷和平原磐石上的居民, 你们说:谁能下来攻击我们? 谁能进入我们的住处呢? 看哪,我与你们为敌。
Here I [am] against you O inhabitant of the valley O rock of the plain [the] utterance of Yahweh O those [who] say who? will he come down on us and who? will he come in hiding places our.
14 耶和华又说: 我必按你们做事的结果刑罚你们; 我也必使火在耶路撒冷的林中着起, 将她四围所有的尽行烧灭。”
And I will visit [judgment] on you according to [the] fruit of deeds your [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will kindle a fire in forest its and it will consume all around it.
