耶利米书 48
1 论摩押。万军之耶和华—以色列的 神如此说： 尼波有祸了！因变为荒场。 基列亭蒙羞被攻取； 米斯迦蒙羞被毁坏；
Of Moab, —Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, —Alas for Nebo, for it is laid waste, put to shame—captured, is Kiriathaim, put to shame is Misgab, and dismayed.
2 摩押不再被称赞。 有人在希实本设计谋害她，说： 来吧！我们将她剪除，不再成国。 玛得缅哪，你也必默默无声； 刀剑必追赶你。
No more, is the praise of Moab, In Heshbon, have they devised against her, calamity, Come, and let us cut her off from being a nation, —Even thou, Madmen also, shalt be silenced, After thee, shall march the sword.
3 从何罗念有喊荒凉大毁灭的哀声：
A voice of outcry, from Horonaim, —Wasting and great destruction!
4 摩押毁灭了！ 她的孩童发哀声，使人听见。
Moab is broken: Her little ones, have caused to be heard an outcry.
5 人上鲁希坡随走随哭， 因为在何罗念的下坡听见毁灭的哀声。
For the ascent of Luhith, with weeping, one ascendeth—with weeping, —For in the descent of Horonaim, the distress of the outcry of destruction, have they heard:
6 你们要奔逃，自救性命， 独自居住，好像旷野的杜松。
Flee deliver your own lives, —Then shall the women be as a shrub in the desert.
7 你因倚靠自己所做的和自己的财宝必被攻取。 基抹和属他的祭司、首领也要一同被掳去。
For seeing thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy treasures, Thou too, shalt be captured, —Then shall Chemosh go forth into captivity, His priests and his princes together.
8 行毁灭的必来到各城， 并无一城得免。 山谷必致败落， 平原必被毁坏； 正如耶和华所说的。
And the spoiler shall enter into every city, And not, a city, shall escape, Then shall perish the vale Then be destroyed the table-land, —As Yahweh hath said.
9 要将翅膀给摩押， 使她可以飞去。 她的城邑必致荒凉， 无人居住。 （
Give wing to Moab, For she must, fly away; And her cities To desolation, shall be turned, With no inhabitant therein.
10 懒惰为耶和华行事的，必受咒诅；禁止刀剑不经血的，必受咒诅。）
Accursed be he that doeth the business of Yahweh carelessly; And, accursed be he that withholdeth his sword, from blood!
11 摩押自幼年以来常享安逸， 如酒在渣滓上澄清， 没有从这器皿倒在那器皿里， 也未曾被掳去。 因此，它的原味尚存， 香气未变。
Moab, hath been at ease from his youth, And settled is he upon his lees, And hath not been poured out from vessel to vessel, Nor into captivity, hath gone, —For this cause, hath his flavour stood still within him, And his scent is unchanged.
12 耶和华说：“日子将到，我必打发倒酒的往她那里去，将她倒出来，倒空她的器皿，打碎她的坛子。
Therefore, lo! days are coming, Declareth Yahweh, When I will send to him tilters and they shall tilt him, —And his vessels, shall they empty, And their jars, shall they dash in pieces.
13 摩押必因基抹羞愧，像以色列家从前倚靠伯特利的神羞愧一样。
Then shall Moab, be ashamed, of, Chemosh, —Just as, the sons of Israel, were ashamed of Bethel their confidence.
14 你们怎么说： 我们是勇士，是有勇力打仗的呢？
How can ye say, Heroes, are we? and Men of might for the war?
15 摩押变为荒场， 敌人上去进了她的城邑。 她所特选的少年人下去遭了杀戮； 这是君王—名为万军之耶和华说的。
Spoiled is Moab And her cities, hath he ascended, And the choice of his young men, have gone down to the slaughter, —Declareth The King, Yahweh of hosts, is his Name.
16 摩押的灾殃临近； 她的苦难速速来到。
Near is the doom of Moab, to come, —And, his calamity, hasteth greatly.
17 凡在她四围的和认识她名的， 你们都要为她悲伤，说： 那结实的杖和那美好的棍， 何竟折断了呢？
Lament ye for him—All that are round about him, and All that know his name, —Say, How is broken—The staff of strength! The rod of beauty!
18 住在底本的民哪， 要从你荣耀的位上下来， 坐受干渴； 因毁灭摩押的上来攻击你， 毁坏了你的保障。
Come down from glory, and sit in thirst, O inhabitress daughter of Dibon; For the spoiler of Moab, hath come up against thee, He hath laid in ruins thy strongholds.
19 住亚罗珥的啊， 要站在道旁观望， 问逃避的男人和逃脱的女人说： 是什么事呢？
Near the way, take thy stand and keep outlook, O inhabitress of Aroer: Ask—him that fleeth, and Her that hath escaped, Say, What hath happened?
20 摩押因毁坏蒙羞； 你们要哀号呼喊， 要在亚嫩旁报告说： 摩押变为荒场！
Confounded is Moab! For it is broken down! Howl and make outcry, —Tell ye in Arnon, That Moab is spoiled;
21 “刑罚临到平原之地的何伦、雅杂、米法押、
And, judgment, hath come Upon the country of the table-land, —Upon Holon, and Upon Jazer and Upon Mephaath;
22 底本、尼波、伯·低比拉太音、
and Upon Dibon, and Upon Nebo, and Upon Beth-diblathaim;
23 基列亭、伯·迦末、伯·米恩、
and Upon Kiriathaim, and Upon Beth-gamul, and Upon Beth-meon;
24 加略、波斯拉，和摩押地远近所有的城邑。
and Upon Kerioth, and Upon Bozrah, —Yea, upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far and near.
25 摩押的角砍断了，摩押的膀臂折断了。这是耶和华说的。”
Cut off is the horn of Moab, Yea, his arm, is broken, —Declareth Yahweh.
26 “你们要使摩押沉醉，因她向耶和华夸大。她要在自己所吐之中打滚，又要被人嗤笑。
Make ye him drunken, Because against Yahweh, hath he magnified himself; So shall, Moab, stagger, into his own vomit, And shall become a derision, even he!
27 摩押啊，你不曾嗤笑以色列吗？她岂是在贼中查出来的呢？你每逢提到她便摇头。
And was it not, a derision, that Israel became to thee? And was it not among thieves, he was found? For, as often as thou didst speak of him, thou didst wag the head!
28 摩押的居民哪， 要离开城邑，住在山崖里， 像鸽子在深渊口上搭窝。
Leave ye the cities and dwell in the cliff, Ye inhabitants of Moab; And become ye as a dove, that maketh her nest in the further-side of the fissure’s mouth.
29 我们听说摩押人骄傲， 是极其骄傲； 听说他自高自傲， 并且狂妄，居心自大。
We have heard the arrogance of Moab—proud exceedingly: His loftiness and his arrogance and his majesty, and his elevation of heart!
30 耶和华说： 我知道他的忿怒是虚空的； 他夸大的话一无所成。
I know—Declareth Yahweh His passion—that’tis Unjust! His boastings, that Untrue have they made [them]!
31 因此，我要为摩押哀号， 为摩押全地呼喊； 人必为吉珥·哈列设人叹息。
For this cause over Moab, will I howl, And for all Moab, will I make outcry, —For the men of Kir-heres, must one moan!
32 西比玛的葡萄树啊，我为你哀哭， 甚于雅谢人哀哭。 你的枝子蔓延过海， 直长到雅谢海。 那行毁灭的已经临到你夏天的果子 和你所摘的葡萄。
Beyond the weeping of Jazer, will I weep for thee O vine of Sibmah, Thy tendrils, have gone over the sea, Unto the sea of Jazer, have they reached, Upon thy summer fruits And upon thy vintage, the spoiler, hath fallen.
33 肥田和摩押地的欢喜快乐都被夺去； 我使酒榨的酒绝流， 无人踹酒欢呼； 那欢呼却变为仇敌的呐喊。
So shall be withdrawn gladness and exultation—From the fruitful field and From the land of Moab, —And wine from the vats, have I caused to fail, They shall not tread with shouting, The shouting shall be no shouting!
34 “希实本人发的哀声达到以利亚利，直达到雅杂；从琐珥达到何罗念，直到伊基拉·施利施亚，因为宁林的水必然干涸。”
From the outcry of Heshbon, Even unto Elealeh Even unto Jahaz, have they given forth their voice, From Zoar even unto Horonaim, the third Eglath, —For, even the waters of Nimrim, to utter desolation, have been turned:
35 耶和华说：“我必在摩押地使那在邱坛献祭的，和那向他的神烧香的都断绝了。
Then will I cause to cease, from Moab, Declareth Yahweh, —him that offereth at a high-place, and him that burneth incense to his gods.
36 我心腹为摩押哀鸣如箫，我心肠为吉珥·哈列设人也是如此，因摩押人所得的财物都灭没了。
For this cause, my heart, for Moab, like flutes, shall make plaintive sounds, Yea my heart for the men of Kir-heres! like flutes, shall make plaintive sounds, Because, the abundance he hath gotten is lost!
37 “各人头上光秃，胡须剪短，手有划伤，腰束麻布。
For, every head, is baldness, And every beard, clipped: Upon all hands, are gashes, And upon the loins, sackcloth
38 在摩押的各房顶上和街市上处处有人哀哭；因我打碎摩押，好像打碎无人喜悦的器皿。这是耶和华说的。
Upon all the housetops of Moab And in her broadways, it is all lamentation, —For I have broken Moab—Like a vessel wherein is no pleasure Declareth Yahweh.
39 摩押何等毁坏！何等哀号！何等羞愧转背！这样，摩押必令四围的人嗤笑惊骇。”
How it is broken down! They have howled, How hath Moab turned the back, for shame, —So shall Moab become a derision and a terror to all round about him.
40 耶和华如此说： 仇敌必如大鹰飞起， 展开翅膀，攻击摩押。
For, thus, saith Yahweh, Lo! as an eagle, shall one dart along, —And shall spread out his wings towards Moab.
41 加略被攻取，保障也被占据。 到那日，摩押的勇士心中疼痛如临产的妇人。
Captured is Kerioth, And the fortresses, are seized, —Then shall the heart of the heroes of Moab become in that day, As the heart of a woman in her pains.
42 摩押必被毁灭，不再成国， 因她向耶和华夸大。
Then shall, Moab, be destroyed from being a people, —Because against Yahweh, hath he magnified himself.
43 耶和华说：摩押的居民哪， 恐惧、陷坑、网罗都临近你。
Terror and pit and snare are upon thee O inhabitant of Moab Declareth Yahweh:
44 躲避恐惧的必坠入陷坑； 从陷坑上来的必被网罗缠住； 因我必使追讨之年临到摩押。 这是耶和华说的。
He that fleeth from the face of the terror, Shall fall into the pit, And, he that getteth up out of the pit, Shall be captured by the snare, —For I will bring against her—against Moab, The year of their visitation, Declareth Yahweh.
45 躲避的人无力站在希实本的影下； 因为有火从希实本发出， 有火焰出于西宏的城， 烧尽摩押的角和哄嚷人的头顶。
In the shadow of Heshbon, stand strengthless, the fugitives, —For, a fire, hath gone forth out of Heshbon And shall flame out of the midst of Sihon, And shall devour the beard of Moab, And the crown of the head of the proudly tumultuous.
46 摩押啊，你有祸了！ 属基抹的民灭亡了！ 因你的众子都被掳去， 你的众女也被掳去。
Woe to thee Moab! Lost are the people of Chemosh, —For thy sons have been taken, into captivity, And thy daughters into captivity.
47 耶和华说： 到末后，我还要使被掳的摩押人归回。 摩押受审判的话到此为止。
Yet will I bring back the captivity of Moab, In the afterpart of the days, Declareth Yahweh, Thus far, is the sentence of Moab.
