耶利米书 33
1 耶利米还囚在护卫兵的院内，耶和华的话第二次临到他说：
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah a second time — and he [is] yet detained in the court of the prison — saying:
2 “成就的是耶和华，造作、为要建立的也是耶和华；耶和华是他的名。他如此说：
Thus said Jehovah its maker, Jehovah its former, at establishing it, Jehovah [is] His name:
3 你求告我，我就应允你，并将你所不知道、又大又难的事指示你。
Call unto Me, and I do answer thee, yea, I declare to thee great and fenced things — thou hast not known them.
4 论到这城中的房屋和犹大王的宫室，就是拆毁为挡敌人高垒和刀剑的，耶和华—以色列的 神如此说：
For thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, that are broken down for the mounts, and for the tool;
5 人要与迦勒底人争战，正是拿死尸充满这房屋，就是我在怒气和忿怒中所杀的人，因他们的一切恶，我就掩面不顾这城。
they are coming in to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the carcases of men, whom I have smitten in Mine anger, and in My fury, and [for] whom I have hidden My face from this city, because of all their evil:
6 看哪，我要使这城得以痊愈安舒，使城中的人得医治，又将丰盛的平安和诚实显明与他们。
Lo, I am increasing to it health and cure, And have healed them, and revealed to them The abundance of peace and truth.
7 我也要使犹大被掳的和以色列被掳的归回，并建立他们和起初一样。
And I have turned back the captivity of Judah, And the captivity of Israel, And I have built them as at the first,
8 我要除净他们的一切罪，就是向我所犯的罪；又要赦免他们的一切罪，就是干犯我、违背我的罪。
And cleansed them from all their iniquity, That they have sinned against Me, And I have pardoned all their iniquities, That they have sinned against Me, And that they transgressed against Me.
9 这城要在地上万国人面前使我得颂赞，得荣耀，名为可喜可乐之城。万国人因听见我向这城所赐的福乐、所施的恩惠平安，就惧怕战兢。”
And it hath been to Me for a name of joy, For praise, and for beauty, to all nations of the earth, Who hear of all the good that I am doing them, And they have feared, And they have trembled for all the good, And for all the peace, that I am doing to it.
10 耶和华如此说：“你们论这地方，说是荒废无人民无牲畜之地，但在这荒凉无人民无牲畜的犹大城邑和耶路撒冷的街上，
Thus said Jehovah: Again heard in this place of which ye are saying, Waste it [is], without man and without beast, In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, That are desolated, without man, And without inhabitant, and without beast,
11 必再听见有欢喜和快乐的声音、新郎和新妇的声音，并听见有人说： 要称谢万军之耶和华， 因耶和华本为善； 他的慈爱永远长存！ 又有奉感谢祭到耶和华殿中之人的声音；因为我必使这地被掳的人归回，和起初一样。这是耶和华说的。”
Is a voice of joy and a voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, The voice of those saying, Thank Jehovah of Hosts, for Jehovah [is] good, For His kindness [is] to the age, Who are bringing in thanksgiving to the house of Jehovah, For I turn back the captivity of the land, As at the first, said Jehovah.
12 万军之耶和华如此说：“在这荒废无人民无牲畜之地，并其中所有的城邑，必再有牧人的住处；他们要使羊群躺卧在那里。
Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Again there is in this place — that is waste, Without man and beast, And in all its cities — a habitation of shepherds, Causing the flock to lie down.
13 在山地的城邑、高原的城邑、南地的城邑、便雅悯地、耶路撒冷四围的各处，和犹大的城邑必再有羊群从数点的人手下经过。这是耶和华说的。”
In the cities of the hill-country, In the cities of the low country, And in the cities of the south, And in the land of Benjamin, And in the suburbs of Jerusalem, And in the cities of Judah, Again doth the flock pass by under the hands of the numberer, said Jehovah.
14 耶和华说：“日子将到，我应许以色列家和犹大家的恩言必然成就。
Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have established the good word That I spake unto the house of Israel, And concerning the house of Judah.
15 当那日子，那时候，我必使大卫公义的苗裔长起来；他必在地上施行公平和公义。
In those days, and at that time, I cause to shoot up to David a shoot of righteousness, And he hath done judgment and righteousness in the earth.
16 在那日子犹大必得救，耶路撒冷必安然居住，他的名必称为‘耶和华—我们的义’。
In those days is Judah saved, And Jerusalem doth dwell confidently, And this [is] he whom Jehovah proclaimeth to her: 'Our Righteousness.'
17 “因为耶和华如此说：大卫必永不断人坐在以色列家的宝座上；
For thus said Jehovah: 'Not cut off to David is one sitting on the throne of the house of Israel,
18 祭司、利未人在我面前也不断人献燔祭、烧素祭，时常办理献祭的事。”
And to the priests — the Levites, Not cut off from before Me is one, Causing a burnt-offering to ascend, And perfuming a present, and making sacrifice — all the days.'
19 耶和华的话临到耶利米说：
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying,
20 “耶和华如此说：你们若能废弃我所立白日黑夜的约，使白日黑夜不按时轮转，
'Thus said Jehovah: If ye do break My covenant of the day, And My covenant of the night, So that they are not daily and nightly in their season,
21 就能废弃我与我仆人大卫所立的约，使他没有儿子在他的宝座上为王，并能废弃我与事奉我的祭司、利未人所立的约。
Also My covenant is broken with David My servant, So that he hath not a son reigning on his throne, And with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
22 天上的万象不能数算，海边的尘沙也不能斗量；我必照样使我仆人大卫的后裔和事奉我的利未人多起来。”
As the host of the heavens is not numbered, Nor the sand of the sea measured, So I multiply the seed of David My servant, And the Levites My ministers.'
23 耶和华的话临到耶利米说：
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying:
24 “你没有揣摩这百姓的话吗？他们说：‘耶和华所拣选的二族，他已经弃绝了。’他们这样藐视我的百姓，以为不再成国。
'Hast thou not considered what this people have spoken, saying: The two families on which Jehovah fixed, He doth reject them, And my people they despise — So that they are no more a people before them!
25 耶和华如此说：若是我立白日黑夜的约不能存住，若是我未曾安排天地的定例，
Thus said Jehovah: If My covenant [is] not daily and nightly, The statutes of heaven and earth I have not appointed —
26 我就弃绝雅各的后裔和我仆人大卫的后裔，不使大卫的后裔治理亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各的后裔；因为我必使他们被掳的人归回，也必怜悯他们。”
Also the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, I reject, Against taking from his seed rulers For the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, For I turn back [to] their captivity, and have pitied them.'
