< 耶利米書 43 >

1 耶利米向眾百姓說完了耶和華-他們上帝的一切話,就是耶和華-他們上帝差遣他去所說的一切話。
Nowe when Ieremiah had made an ende of speaking vnto ye whole people all the wordes of the Lord their God, for the which the Lord their God had sent him to them, euen all these wordes,
2 何沙雅的兒子亞撒利雅和加利亞的兒子約哈難,並一切狂傲的人,就對耶利米說:「你說謊言!耶和華-我們的上帝並沒有差遣你來說:『你們不可進入埃及,在那裏寄居。』
Then spake Azariah the sonne of Hoshaiah, and Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the proude men, saying vnto Ieremiah, Thou speakest falsely: the Lord our God hath not sent thee to say, Goe not into Egypt to dwell there,
3 這是尼利亞的兒子巴錄挑唆你害我們,要將我們交在迦勒底人的手中,使我們有被殺的,有被擄到巴比倫去的。」
But Baruch ye sonne of Neriah prouoketh thee against vs, for to deliuer vs into the hand of the Caldeans, that they might slay vs, and cary vs away captiues into Babel.
4 於是加利亞的兒子約哈難和一切軍長,並眾百姓,不聽從耶和華的話住在猶大地。
So Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste, and all the people obeied not the voyce of the Lord, to dwell in the lande of Iudah.
5 加利亞的兒子約哈難和一切軍長卻將所剩下的猶大人,就是從被趕到各國回來在猶大地寄居的男人、婦女、孩童,和眾公主,並護衛長尼布撒拉旦所留在沙番的孫子亞希甘的兒子基大利那裏的眾人,與先知耶利米,以及尼利亞的兒子巴錄,
But Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste tooke all the remnant of Iudah, that were returned from al nations, whither they had bene driuen, to dwel in ye land of Iudah:
6
Euen men and women, and children, and the Kinges daughters, and euery person, that Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward had left with Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, ye sonne of Shaphan, and Ieremiah the Prophet, and Baruch the sonne of Neriah.
7 都帶入埃及地,到了答比匿。這是因他們不聽從耶和華的話。
So they came into the lande of Egypt: for they obeied not the voice of the Lord: thus came they to Tahpanhes.
8 在答比匿,耶和華的話臨到耶利米說:
Then came the worde of the Lord vnto Ieremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,
9 「你在猶大人眼前要用手拿幾塊大石頭,藏在砌磚的灰泥中,就是在答比匿法老的宮門那裏,
Take great stones in thine hand, and hide them in the claie in the bricke kill, which is at the entrie of Pharaohs house in Tanpanhes in ye sight of the men of Iudah,
10 對他們說:『萬軍之耶和華-以色列的上帝如此說:我必召我的僕人巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒來。在所藏的石頭上我要安置他的寶座;他必將光華的寶帳支搭在其上。
And say vnto them, Thus sayeth the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Beholde, I will sende and bring Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel my seruant, and will set his throne vpon these stones that I haue hid, and he shall spread his pauilion ouer them.
11 他要來攻擊埃及地,定為死亡的,必致死亡;定為擄掠的,必被擄掠;定為刀殺的,必交刀殺。
And when he shall come, he shall smite the land of Egypt: such as are appoynted for death, to death, and such as are for captiuitie, to captiuitie, and such as are for the sword to the sword.
12 我要在埃及神的廟中使火着起,巴比倫王要將廟宇焚燒,神像擄去;他要得埃及地,好像牧人披上外衣,從那裏安然而去。
And I wil kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and he shall burne them and carie them away captiues, and he shall aray himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepheard putteth on his garment, and shall depart from thence in peace.
13 他必打碎埃及地伯‧示麥的柱像,用火焚燒埃及神的廟宇。』」
He shall breake also ye images of Beth-shemesh, that is in the lande of Egypt, and the houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burne with fire.
