< 弥迦书 2 >

1 祸哉,那些在床上图谋罪孽、造作奸恶的! 天一发亮,因手有能力就行出来了。
Woe to those who devise iniquity and work evil upon their beds! When the morning is light they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.
2 他们贪图田地就占据, 贪图房屋便夺取; 他们欺压人,霸占房屋和产业。
And they covet fields, and seize them, and houses, and take them away. And they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
3 所以耶和华如此说: 我筹划灾祸降与这族; 这祸在你们的颈项上不能解脱; 你们也不能昂首而行, 因为这时势是恶的。
Therefore thus says Jehovah: Behold, I devise an evil against this family, from which ye shall not remove your necks, nor shall ye walk haughtily, for it is an evil time.
4 到那日,必有人向你们提起悲惨的哀歌, 讥刺说:我们全然败落了! 耶和华将我们的分转归别人, 何竟使这分离开我们? 他将我们的田地分给悖逆的人。
In that day they shall take up a taunt against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation. And say, We are utterly ruined. He changes the portion of my people. How he removes it from me! He divides our fields to the rebellious.
5 所以在耶和华的会中, 你必没有人拈阄拉准绳。
Therefore thou shall have nobody to cast the line by lot in the assembly of Jehovah.
6 他们说:你们不可说预言; 不可向这些人说预言, 不住地羞辱我们。
Prophesy ye not, they prophesy. They shall not prophesy to these, so reproaches shall not depart.
7 雅各家啊,岂可说耶和华的心不忍耐吗? 这些事是他所行的吗? 我—耶和华的言语岂不是与行动正直的人有益吗?
Shall it be said, O house of Jacob, Is the Spirit of Jehovah restricted? Are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him who walks uprightly?
8 然而,近来我的民兴起如仇敌, 从那些安然经过不愿打仗之人身上剥去外衣。
But of late my people have risen up as an enemy. Ye strip off the robe with the garment from those who pass by securely as men turning back from war.
9 你们将我民中的妇人从安乐家中赶出, 又将我的荣耀从她们的小孩子尽行夺去。
Ye cast out the women of my people from their pleasant houses. Ye take away my glory from their young sons forever.
10 你们起来去吧! 这不是你们安息之所; 因为污秽使人毁灭, 而且大大毁灭。
Arise ye, and depart, for this is not your resting-place, because of uncleanness that destroys, even with a grievous destruction.
11 若有人心存虚假,用谎言说: 我要向你们预言得清酒和浓酒。 那人就必作这民的先知。
If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies, saying, I will prophesy to thee of wine and of strong drink, he shall even be the prophet of this people.
12 雅各家啊,我必要聚集你们, 必要招聚以色列剩下的人, 安置在一处,如波斯拉的羊, 又如草场上的羊群; 因为人数众多就必大大喧哗。
I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee. I will surely gather the remnant of Israel. I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as a flock in the midst of their pasture. They shall make great noise because of the multitude of men.
13 开路的在他们前面上去; 他们直闯过城门,从城门出去。 他们的王在前面行; 耶和华引导他们。
The breaker has gone up before them. They have broken forth and passed on to the gate, and have gone out there. And their king has passed on before them, and Jehovah at the head of them.
