Micah 3
1 And I said: Hear, O ye princes of Jacob, and ye chiefs of the house of Israel: Is it not your part to know judgment,
我说：雅各的首领， 以色列家的官长啊，你们要听！ 你们不当知道公平吗？
2 You that hate good, and love evil: that violently pluck off their skins from them, and their flesh from their bones?
你们恶善好恶， 从人身上剥皮， 从人骨头上剔肉，
3 Who have eaten the flesh of my people, and have flayed their skin from off them: and have broken, and chopped their bones as for the kettle, and as flesh in the midst of the pot.
吃我民的肉， 剥他们的皮， 打折他们的骨头， 分成块子像要下锅， 又像釜中的肉。
4 Then shall they cry to the Lord, and he will not hear them: and he will hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved wickedly in their devices.
到了遭灾的时候， 这些人必哀求耶和华， 他却不应允他们。 那时他必照他们所行的恶事向他们掩面。
5 Thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that make my people err: that bite with their teeth, and preach peace: and if a man give not something into their mouth, they prepare war against him.
论到使我民走差路的先知— 他们牙齿有所嚼的， 他们就呼喊说：平安了！ 凡不供给他们吃的， 他们就预备攻击他— 耶和华如此说：
6 Therefore night shall be to you instead of vision, and darkness to you instead of divination; and the sun shall go down upon the prophets, and the day shall be darkened over them.
你们必遭遇黑夜，以致不见异象； 又必遭遇幽暗，以致不能占卜。 日头必向你们沉落， 白昼变为黑暗。
7 And they shall be confounded that see visions, and the diviners shall be confounded: and they shall all cover their faces, because there is no answer of God.
先见必抱愧， 占卜的必蒙羞， 都必捂着嘴唇， 因为 神不应允他们。
8 But yet I am filled with the strength of the spirit of the Lord, with judgment, and power: to declare unto Jacob his wickedness, and to Israel his sin.
至于我，我借耶和华的灵， 满有力量、公平、才能， 可以向雅各说明他的过犯， 向以色列指出他的罪恶。
9 Hear this, ye princes of the house of Jacob, and ye judges of the house of Israel: you that abhor judgment, and pervert all that is right.
雅各家的首领、以色列家的官长啊， 当听我的话！ 你们厌恶公平， 在一切事上屈枉正直；
10 You that build up Sion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
以人血建立锡安， 以罪孽建造耶路撒冷。
11 Her princes have judged for bribes, and her priests have taught for hire, and her prophets divined for money: and they leaned upon the Lord, saying: Is not the Lord in the midst of us? no evil shall come upon us.
首领为贿赂行审判； 祭司为雇价施训诲； 先知为银钱行占卜。 他们却倚赖耶和华，说： 耶和华不是在我们中间吗？ 灾祸必不临到我们。
12 Therefore, because of you, Sion shall be ploughed as a field, and Jerusalem shall be as a heap of stones, and the mountain of the temple as the high places of the forests.
所以因你们的缘故， 锡安必被耕种像一块田， 耶路撒冷必变为乱堆； 这殿的山必像丛林的高处。
