耶利米书 26
1 犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬登基的时候，有这话从耶和华临到耶利米说：
In the bigynnyng of the rewme of Joachym, the sone of Josie, kyng of Juda, this word was maad of the Lord, and seide,
2 “耶和华如此说：你站在耶和华殿的院内，对犹大众城邑的人，就是到耶和华殿来礼拜的，说我所吩咐你的一切话，一字不可删减。
The Lord seide these thingis, Stonde thou in the porche of the hous of the Lord, and thou schalt speke to alle the citees of Juda, fro whiche thei comen for to worschipe in the hous of the Lord, alle the wordis whiche Y comaundide to thee, that thou speke to hem; nyle thou withdrawe a word;
3 或者他们肯听从，各人回头离开恶道，使我后悔不将我因他们所行的恶，想要施行的灾祸降与他们。
if perauenture thei heren, and ben conuertid, ech man fro his yuele weie, and it repente me of the yuel which Y thouyte to do to hem for the malices of her studies.
4 你要对他们说，耶和华如此说：‘你们若不听从我，不遵行我设立在你们面前的律法，
And thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord seith these thingis, If ye heren not me, that ye go in my lawe which Y yaf to you,
5 不听我从早起来差遣到你们那里去我仆人众先知的话（你们还是没有听从），
that ye here the wordis of my seruauntis, profetis, whiche Y risynge bi niyte, and dressynge, sente to you, and ye herden not;
6 我就必使这殿如示罗，使这城为地上万国所咒诅的。’”
Y schal yyue this hous as Silo, and Y schal yyue this citee in to cursyng to alle folkis of erthe.
7 耶利米在耶和华殿中说的这些话，祭司、先知与众民都听见了。
And the prestis, and profetis, and al the puple herden Jeremye spekynge these wordis in the hous of the Lord.
8 耶利米说完了耶和华所吩咐他对众人说的一切话，祭司、先知与众民都来抓住他，说：“你必要死！
And whanne Jeremye hadde fillid spekynge alle thingis, whiche the Lord hadde comaundid to hym, that he schulde speke to al the puple, the prestis, and profetis, and al the puple token hym, and seiden, Die he bi deeth;
9 你为何托耶和华的名预言，说这殿必如示罗，这城必变为荒场无人居住呢？”于是众民都在耶和华的殿中聚集到耶利米那里。
whi profesiede he in the name of the Lord, and seide, This hous schal be as Silo, and this citee schal be desolat, for no dwellere is? And al the puple was gaderid togidere ayens Jeremye, in the hous of the Lord.
10 犹大的首领听见这事，就从王宫上到耶和华的殿，坐在耶和华殿的新门口。
And the princes of Juda herden alle these wordis; and thei stieden fro the kyngis hous in to the hous of the Lord, and saten in the entryng of the newe yate of the hous of the Lord.
11 祭司、先知对首领和众民说：“这人是该死的；因为他说预言攻击这城，正如你们亲耳所听见的。”
And the prestis and profetis spaken to the princes, and to al the puple, and seiden, Doom of deth is to this man, for he profesiede ayens this citee, as ye herden with youre eeris.
12 耶利米就对众首领和众民说：“耶和华差遣我预言，攻击这殿和这城，说你们所听见的这一切话。
And Jeremye seide to alle the princes, and to al the puple, `and seide, The Lord sente me, that Y schulde prophesie to this hous, and to this citee, alle the wordis whiche ye herden.
13 现在要改正你们的行动作为，听从耶和华—你们 神的话，他就必后悔，不将所说的灾祸降与你们。
Now therfor make ye good youre weies, and youre studies, and here ye the vois of youre Lord God; and it schal repente the Lord of the yuel which he spak ayens you.
14 至于我，我在你们手中，你们眼看何为善，何为正，就那样待我吧！
Lo! forsothe Y am in youre hondis; do ye to me, as it is good and riytful bifore youre iyen.
15 但你们要确实地知道，若把我治死，就使无辜人的血归到你们和这城，并其中的居民了；因为耶和华实在差遣我到你们这里来，将这一切话传与你们耳中。”
Netheles wite ye, and knowe, that if ye sleen me, ye schulen bitraie innocent blood ayens you silf, and ayens this citee, and the dwelleris therof; for in trewthe the Lord sente me to you, that Y schulde speke in youre eeris alle these wordis.
16 首领和众民就对祭司、先知说：“这人是不该死的，因为他是奉耶和华—我们 神的名向我们说话。”
And the princes and al the puple seiden to the preestis and profetis, Doom of deth is not to this man; for he spak to vs in the name of oure Lord God.
17 国中的长老就有几个人起来，对聚会的众民说：
Therfor men of the eldere men of the lond rysiden vp, and seiden to al the cumpanye of the puple,
18 “当犹大王希西家的日子，有摩利沙人弥迦对犹大众人预言说： 万军之耶和华如此说： 锡安必被耕种像一块田； 耶路撒冷必变为乱堆； 这殿的山必像丛林的高处。
and spaken, Mychee of Morasten was a profete in the daies of Ezechie, king of Juda; and he seide to al the puple of Juda, and seide, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Sion schal be erid as a feeld, and Jerusalem schal be in to an heep of stoonys, and the hil of the hous of the Lord schal be in to hiy thingis of woodis.
19 犹大王希西家和犹大众人岂是把他治死呢？希西家岂不是敬畏耶和华、恳求他的恩吗？耶和华就后悔，不把自己所说的灾祸降与他们。若治死这人，我们就作了大恶，自害己命。” （
Whether Ezechie, kyng of Juda, and al Juda condempnede hym bi deth? Whether thei dredden not the Lord, and bisouyten the face of the Lord? and it repentide the Lord of the yuel which he spak ayens hem. Therfor do we not greet yuel ayens oure soulis.
20 又有一个人奉耶和华的名说预言，是基列·耶琳人示玛雅的儿子乌利亚，他照耶利米的一切话说预言，攻击这城和这地。
Also Vrye, the sone of Semey, of Cariathiarym, was a man profesiynge in the name of the Lord; and he profesiede ayens this citee, and ayens this lond, bi alle the wordis of Jeremye.
21 约雅敬王和他众勇士、众首领听见了乌利亚的话，王就想要把他治死。乌利亚听见就惧怕，逃往埃及去了。
And kyng Joachym, and alle the myyti men, and princes of hem, herden these wordis; and the kyng souyte to sle hym; and Vrye herde, and dredde, and he fledde, and entride in to Egipt.
22 约雅敬王便打发亚革波的儿子以利拿单，带领几个人往埃及去。
And kyng Joachym sente men in to Egipt, Elnathan, the sone of Achobor, and men with hym, in to Egipt;
23 他们就从埃及将乌利亚带出来，送到约雅敬王那里；王用刀杀了他，把他的尸首抛在平民的坟地中。）
and thei ledden Vrye out of Egipt, and brouyten hym to kyng Joachym; and the kyng killide hym bi swerd, and castide forth his careyn in the sepulcris of the comyn puple vnnoble.
24 然而，沙番的儿子亚希甘保护耶利米，不交在百姓的手中治死他。
Therfor the hond of Aicham, sone of Saphan, was with Jeremye, that he was not bitakun in to the hondis of the puple, and that it killide not hym.
