< 耶利米書 46 >
Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet on the nations.
2 論到關乎埃及王法老尼哥的軍隊:這軍隊安營在幼發拉底河邊的迦基米施,是巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒在猶大王約西亞的兒子約雅敬第四年所打敗的。
Of Egypt on [the] army of Pharaoh Necho [the] king of Egypt which it was at [the] river of Euphrates at Carchemish which he struck down Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon in [the] year fourth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah.
Set in order shield and body shield and draw near for battle.
4 你們套上車, 騎上馬! 頂盔站立, 磨槍貫甲!
Harness the horses and mount the warhorses and take your stand with helmets polish the spears put on the armor.
5 我為何看見他們驚惶轉身退後呢? 他們的勇士打敗了, 急忙逃跑,並不回頭; 驚嚇四圍都有! 這是耶和華說的。
Why? have I seen they [will be] terrified [they will be] turned back backwards and warriors their they will be crushed and flight they will flee and not they will turn back terror [will be] from round about [the] utterance of Yahweh.
6 不要容快跑的逃避; 不要容勇士逃脫; 他們在北方幼發拉底河邊絆跌仆倒。
May not he flee the swift [one] and may not he escape the warrior north-ward on [the] side of [the] river of Euphrates they will stumble and they will fall.
Who? [is] this [who] like the River he rises like rivers they surge waters his.
8 埃及像尼羅河漲發, 像江河的水翻騰。 他說:我要漲發遮蓋遍地; 我要毀滅城邑和其中的居民。
Egypt like the River it rises and like rivers they surge waters and it has said I will rise I will cover [the] earth I will destroy a city and [the] inhabitants in it.
9 馬匹上去吧! 車輛急行吧! 勇士,就是手拿盾牌的古實人和弗人, 並拉弓的路德族,都出去吧!
Go up O horses and drive madly O chariotry so they may go forth the warriors Cush and Put [who] wield a shield and Ludites [who] wield [those who] bend a bow.
10 那日是主-萬軍之耶和華報仇的日子, 要向敵人報仇。 刀劍必吞吃得飽, 飲血飲足; 因為主-萬軍之耶和華 在北方幼發拉底河邊有獻祭的事。
And the day that [belongs] to [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts a day of vengeance to avenge himself from opponents his and it will devour [the] sword and it will be satisfied and it will take its fill from blood their for a sacrifice of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts [will be] in [the] land of [the] north to [the] river of Euphrates.
11 埃及的民哪, 可以上基列取乳香去; 你雖多服良藥, 總是徒然,不得治好。
Go up Gilead and acquire balm O virgin of [the] daughter of Egypt for vanity (you have multiplied *Q(K)*) remedies [is] healing there not for you.
12 列國聽見你的羞辱, 遍地滿了你的哀聲; 勇士與勇士彼此相碰, 一齊跌倒。
They will hear nations shame your and outcry your it will be full the earth for warrior over warrior they will stumble together they will fall both of them.
13 耶和華對先知耶利米所說的話,論到巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒要來攻擊埃及地:
The word which he spoke Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet of [the] coming of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon to strike [the] land of Egypt.
14 你們要傳揚在埃及,宣告在密奪, 報告在挪弗、答比匿說: 要站起出隊,自作準備, 因為刀劍在你四圍施行吞滅的事。
Declare in Egypt and make a proclamation in Migdol and make a proclamation in Memphis and in Tahpanhes say take your stand and prepare yourself for it will devour [the] sword around you.
15 你的壯士為何被沖去呢? 他們站立不住; 因為耶和華驅逐他們,
Why? will he be prostrated mighty [ones] your not he will stand for Yahweh he will push him.
16 使多人絆跌; 他們也彼此撞倒,說: 起來吧!我們再往本民本地去, 好躲避欺壓的刀劍。
He will multiply [one who] stumbles also he will fall each to neighbor his and they said arise! - so let us return to people our and to [the] land of kindred our because of [the] sword of the oppressor.
17 他們在那裏喊叫說: 埃及王法老不過是個聲音; 他已錯過所定的時候了。
People will call out there Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt [is] a noise he has let pass by the appointed time.
18 君王-名為萬軍之耶和華的說: 我指着我的永生起誓: 尼布甲尼撒來的勢派 必像他泊在眾山之中, 像迦密在海邊一樣。
[by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of the king [is] Yahweh of hosts name his that like Tabor among the mountains and like Carmel at the sea he will come.
19 住在埃及的民哪, 要預備擄去時所用的物件; 因為挪弗必成為荒場, 且被燒毀,無人居住。
Baggage of exile make for yourself O inhabitant[s] [the] daughter of Egypt for Memphis a waste it will become and it will be made desolate from not inhabitant.
20 埃及是肥美的母牛犢; 但出於北方的毀滅來到了!來到了!
[is] a heifer Beautifully beautiful Egypt a gadfly from [the] north [is] about to come [is] about to come.
21 其中的雇勇好像圈裏的肥牛犢, 他們轉身退後, 一齊逃跑,站立不住; 因為他們遭難的日子、 追討的時候已經臨到。
Also hired soldiers its in midst its [are] like calves of [the] stall for also they they will turn they will flee together not they will stand their ground for [the] day of disaster their it will come on them [the] time of punishment their.
22 其中的聲音好像蛇行一樣。 敵人要成隊而來,如砍伐樹木的手拿斧子攻擊他。
Sound its [is] like snake [which] it goes for with an army they will come and with axes they will come to it like cutters of wood.
23 耶和華說: 埃及的樹林雖然不能尋察, 敵人卻要砍伐, 因他們多於蝗蟲,不可勝數。
They will cut down forest its [the] utterance of Yahweh that not it will be searched for they will be many more than locust[s] and not [belonged] to them number.
It will be put to shame [the] daughter of Egypt it will be given in [the] hand of [the] people of [the] north.
25 萬軍之耶和華-以色列的上帝說:「我必刑罰挪的亞捫和法老,並埃及與埃及的神,以及君王,也必刑罰法老和倚靠他的人。
He says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to visit [judgment] to Amon from Thebes and on Pharaoh and on Egypt and on gods its and on kings its and on Pharaoh and on the [ones who] trust in him.
26 我要將他們交付尋索其命之人的手和巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒與他臣僕的手;以後埃及必再有人居住,與從前一樣。這是耶和華說的。」
And I will give them in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of servants his and after thus it will settle like days of antiquity [the] utterance of Yahweh.
27 我的僕人雅各啊,不要懼怕! 以色列啊,不要驚惶! 因我要從遠方拯救你, 從被擄到之地拯救你的後裔。 雅各必回來,得享平靖安逸, 無人使他害怕。
And you may not you fear O servant my Jacob and may not you be dismayed O Israel for here I [am] about to save you from a distant [land] and offspring your from [the] land of captivity their and he will return Jacob and he will be undisturbed and he will be at ease and there not [will be one who] terrifies.
28 我的僕人雅各啊,不要懼怕! 因我與你同在。 我要將我所趕你到的那些國滅絕淨盡, 卻不將你滅絕淨盡, 倒要從寬懲治你, 萬不能不罰你。 這是耶和華說的。
You may not you fear O servant my Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh that [am] with you I that I will make complete destruction on all the nations - where I have driven away you there towards and you not I will make complete destruction and I will discipline you to justice and certainly not I will leave unpunished you.
