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 them that devise iniquity, And contrive evil upon their beds; When the morning is light, they practise 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。
They covet fields, and take them by violence; Houses, and take them from their owners. They defraud a man of his house; Yea, a man of his inheritance.
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 saith Jehovah: Behold, against this race do I meditate evil. From which ye shall not remove your necks, nor lift up your heads; For it shall be a time of evil.
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 shall this song be uttered concerning thee. And this sad lamentation be made: “We are utterly laid waste; He hath changed the portion of my people; How hath he torn it from me! He hath taken away and distributed our fields.”
5 所以在耶和华的会中， 你必没有人拈阄拉准绳。
Behold, thou shalt have no one henceforth Who shall draw out a line for a portion, In the congregation 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 not,” [[say they, ]] “O ye that prophesy!” If they prophesy not concerning these things, The shame will 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？
O ye that are called the house of Jacob, Is the spirit of Jehovah impatient? Are these his doings? Are not my words kind to him that walketh 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 long since hath my people risen against me, as an enemy; Ye strip the mantle from the garment of those that pass by securely, as men returning 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。
The women of my people ye cast out from their pleasant abodes; Ye deprive their children forever of the glory which I gave them.
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 and depart; This land is not your rest! On account of its pollution shall it be wasted, And given to utter 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 follow wind, and invent falsehood, and say, “I will prophesy to thee of wine and strong drink!” He will be the prophet for 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。
Yet will I fully gather thee, O Jacob, I will surely assemble the residue of Israel! I will put them together like sheep in a fold; Like a flock in their fold shall they be in a tumult on account 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。
He that forceth a way goeth before them; They force their way, and pass through the gate, And go forth by it; And their king goeth before them, Even Jehovah at the head of them.
