< 耶利米书 30 >

1 耶和华的话临到耶利米说:
The word that came to Jeremiah from YHWH, saying,
2 “耶和华—以色列的 神如此说:你将我对你说过的一切话都写在书上。
Thus speaketh YHWH Elohim of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.
3 耶和华说:日子将到,我要使我的百姓以色列和犹大被掳的人归回;我也要使他们回到我所赐给他们列祖之地,他们就得这地为业。这是耶和华说的。”
For, lo, the days come, saith YHWH, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith YHWH: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
4 以下是耶和华论到以色列和犹大所说的话:
And these are the words that YHWH spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
5 耶和华如此说:我们听见声音, 是战抖惧怕而不平安的声音。
For thus saith YHWH; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.
6 你们且访问看看, 男人有产难吗? 我怎么看见人人用手掐腰, 像产难的妇人, 脸面都变青了呢?
Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?
7 哀哉!那日为大, 无日可比; 这是雅各遭难的时候, 但他必被救出来。
Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
8 万军之耶和华说:“到那日,我必从你颈项上折断仇敌的轭,扭开他的绳索;外邦人不得再使你作他们的奴仆。
For it shall come to pass in that day, saith YHWH of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him:
9 你们却要事奉耶和华—你们的 神和我为你们所要兴起的王大卫。”
But they shall serve YHWH their Elohim, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.
10 故此,耶和华说: 我的仆人雅各啊,不要惧怕; 以色列啊,不要惊惶; 因我要从远方拯救你, 从被掳到之地拯救你的后裔; 雅各必回来得享平靖安逸, 无人使他害怕。
Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, saith YHWH; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet, and none shall make him afraid.
11 因我与你同在,要拯救你, 也要将所赶散你到的那些国灭绝净尽, 却不将你灭绝净尽,倒要从宽惩治你, 万不能不罚你。 这是耶和华说的。
For I am with thee, saith YHWH, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
12 耶和华如此说: 你的损伤无法医治; 你的伤痕极其重大。
For thus saith YHWH, Thy bruise is incurable, and thy wound is grievous.
13 无人为你分诉, 使你的伤痕得以缠裹; 你没有医治的良药。
There is none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines.
14 你所亲爱的都忘记你, 不来探问你。 我因你的罪孽甚大,罪恶众多, 曾用仇敌加的伤害伤害你, 用残忍者的惩治惩治你。
All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not; for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the multitude of thine iniquity; because thy sins were increased.
15 你为何因损伤哀号呢? 你的痛苦无法医治。 我因你的罪孽甚大,罪恶众多, 曾将这些加在你身上。
Why criest thou for thine affliction? thy sorrow is incurable for the multitude of thine iniquity: because thy sins were increased, I have done these things unto thee.
16 故此,凡吞吃你的必被吞吃; 你的敌人个个都被掳去; 掳掠你的必成为掳物; 抢夺你的必成为掠物。
Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that spoil thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey.
17 耶和华说:我必使你痊愈, 医好你的伤痕, 都因人称你为被赶散的, 说:这是锡安,无人来探问的!
For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith YHWH; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.
18 耶和华如此说: 我必使雅各被掳去的帐棚归回, 也必顾惜他的住处。 城必建造在原旧的山冈; 宫殿也照旧有人居住。
Thus saith YHWH; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.
19 必有感谢和欢乐的声音从其中发出, 我要使他们增多,不致减少; 使他们尊荣,不致卑微。
And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.
20 他们的儿女要如往日; 他们的会众坚立在我面前; 凡欺压他们的,我必刑罚他。
Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them.
21 他们的君王必是属乎他们的; 掌权的必从他们中间而出。 我要使他就近我, 他也要亲近我; 不然,谁有胆量亲近我呢? 这是耶和华说的。
And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is this that engaged his heart to approach unto me? saith YHWH.
22 你们要作我的子民, 我要作你们的 神。
And ye shall be my people, and I will be your Elohim.
23 看哪,耶和华的忿怒 好像暴风已经发出; 是扫灭的暴风, 必转到恶人的头上。
Behold, the whirlwind of YHWH goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked.
24 耶和华的烈怒必不转消, 直到他心中所拟定的成就了; 末后的日子你们要明白。
The fierce anger of YHWH shall not return, until he have done it, and until he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it.
