耶利米书 30
1 耶和华的话临到耶利米说：
The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, 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。
“The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Write all the words that I have spoken to you 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, behold, the days come,’ says the LORD, ‘that I will reverse the captivity of my people Israel and Judah,’ says the LORD. ‘I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.’”
4 以下是耶和华论到以色列和犹大所说的话：
These are the words that the LORD spoke 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 the LORD says: “We have heard a voice of trembling; a voice 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 now, and see whether a man travails with child. Why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned pale?
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 will 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。
It will come to pass in that day, says the LORD of Armies, that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds. Strangers will no more make them their bondservants;
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 will serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to 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 don’t be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says the LORD. Don’t be dismayed, Israel. For, behold, I will save you from afar, and save your offspring from the land of their captivity. Jacob will return, and will be quiet and at ease. No one will 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 you, says the LORD, to save you; for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you 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 the LORD says, “Your hurt is incurable. Your 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 no one to plead your cause, that you may be bound up. You have 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 your lovers have forgotten you. They don’t seek you. For I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of your iniquity, because your 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 do you cry over your injury? Your pain is incurable. For the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins have increased, I have done these things to you.
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 those who devour you will be devoured. All your adversaries, everyone of them, will go into captivity. Those who plunder you will be plunder. I will make all who prey on you become 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 to you, and I will heal you of your wounds,” says the LORD, “because they have called you an outcast, saying, ‘It is Zion, whom no man seeks 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。
The LORD says: “Behold, I will reverse the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places. The city will be built on its own hill, and the palace will be inhabited in its own place.
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。
Thanksgiving will proceed out of them with the voice of those who make merry. I will multiply them, and they will not be few; I will also glorify them, and they will 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 will be as before, and their congregation will be established before me. I will punish all who 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。
Their prince will be one of them, and their ruler will proceed from amongst them. I will cause him to draw near, and he will approach me; for who is he who has had boldness to approach me?” says the LORD.
22 你们要作我的子民， 我要作你们的 神。
“You shall be my people, and I will be your God.
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 LORD’s storm, his wrath, has gone out, a sweeping storm; it will burst on 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 the LORD will not return until he has accomplished, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it.”
