弥迦书 6
1 以色列人哪，当听耶和华的话！ 要起来向山岭争辩， 使冈陵听你的话。
Hear ye now what the LORD saith; Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
2 山岭和地永久的根基啊， 要听耶和华争辩的话！ 因为耶和华要与他的百姓争辩， 与以色列争论。
Hear ye, O mountains, the LORD’s controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth: for the LORD hath a controversy with his people, and he will plead with Israel.
3 我的百姓啊，我向你做了什么呢？ 我在什么事上使你厌烦？ 你可以对我证明。
O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein have I wearied thee? testify against me.
4 我曾将你从埃及地领出来， 从作奴仆之家救赎你； 我也差遣摩西、亚伦，和米利暗在你前面行。
For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
5 我的百姓啊，你们当追念摩押王巴勒所设的谋 和比珥的儿子巴兰回答他的话， 并你们从什亭到吉甲所遇见的事， 好使你们知道耶和华公义的作为。
O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim unto Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the LORD.
6 我朝见耶和华， 在至高 神面前跪拜，当献上什么呢？ 岂可献一岁的牛犊为燔祭吗？
Wherewith shall I come before the LORD, [and] bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?
7 耶和华岂喜悦千千的公羊， 或是万万的油河吗？ 我岂可为自己的罪过献我的长子吗？ 为心中的罪恶献我身所生的吗？
Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, [or] with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn [for] my transgression, the fruit of my body [for] the sin of my soul?
8 世人哪，耶和华已指示你何为善。 他向你所要的是什么呢？ 只要你行公义，好怜悯， 存谦卑的心，与你的 神同行。
He hath shewed thee, O man, what [is] good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
9 耶和华向这城呼叫， 智慧人必敬畏他的名。 你们当听是谁派定刑杖的惩罚。
The LORD’s voice crieth unto the city, and [the man of] wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.
10 恶人家中不仍有非义之财 和可恶的小升斗吗？
Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure [that is] abominable?
11 我若用不公道的天平和囊中诡诈的法码， 岂可算为清洁呢？
Shall I count [them] pure with the wicked balances, and with the bag of deceitful weights?
12 城里的富户满行强暴； 其中的居民也说谎言， 口中的舌头是诡诈的。
For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue [is] deceitful in their mouth.
13 因此，我击打你， 使你的伤痕甚重， 使你因你的罪恶荒凉。
Therefore also will I make [thee] sick in smiting thee, in making [thee] desolate because of thy sins.
14 你要吃，却吃不饱； 你的虚弱必显在你中间。 你必挪去，却不得救护； 所救护的，我必交给刀剑。
Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting down [shall be] in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take hold, but shalt not deliver; and [that] which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword.
15 你必撒种，却不得收割； 踹橄榄，却不得油抹身； 踹葡萄，却不得酒喝。
Thou shalt sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olives, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oil; and sweet wine, but shalt not drink wine.
16 因为你守暗利的恶规， 行亚哈家一切所行的， 顺从他们的计谋； 因此，我必使你荒凉， 使你的居民令人嗤笑， 你们也必担当我民的羞辱。
For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I should make thee a desolation, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
