Jeremiah 49
1 Against the children of 'Ammon, Thus hath said the Lord, Hath Israel no sons? or hath he no heir? why then doth Malcolm possess Gad, and why do his people dwell in his cities?
论亚扪人。耶和华如此说： 以色列没有儿子吗？ 没有后嗣吗？ 玛勒堪为何得迦得之地为业呢？ 属他的民为何住其中的城邑呢？
2 Therefore, behold, days are coming, saith the Lord, when I will cause an alarm of war to be heard in Rabbah of the children of 'Ammon; and it shall become a desolate heap, and its villages shall be burnt with fire: then shall Israel drive out those that drove them out, saith the Lord.
耶和华说： 日子将到，我必使人听见打仗的喊声， 是攻击亚扪人拉巴的喊声。 拉巴要成为乱堆； 属她的乡村要被火焚烧。 先前得以色列地为业的， 此时以色列倒要得他们的地为业。 这是耶和华说的。
3 Wail, O Cheshbon, for 'Ai is wasted; cry aloud, ye daughters of Rabbah, gird yourselves with sackcloth; lament, and roam about among the sheepfolds; for Malcolm shall go into exile, [with] his priest and his princes together.
希实本哪，你要哀号， 因为爱地变为荒场。 拉巴的居民哪，要呼喊， 以麻布束腰； 要哭号，在篱笆中跑来跑去； 因玛勒堪和属他的祭司、 首领要一同被掳去。
4 Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleys? thy valley floweth [with blood], O backsliding daughter, that trusted in her treasures, saying, Who can come unto me?
背道的民哪， 你们为何因有山谷， 就是水流的山谷夸张呢？ 为何倚靠财宝说： 谁能来到我们这里呢？
5 Behold, I will bring terror upon thee, saith the Lord the Eternal of hosts, from all those that are around thee: and ye shall be driven out every man in his own way; and none shall gather up the fugitive.
主—万军之耶和华说： 我要使恐吓从四围的人中临到你们； 你们必被赶出， 各人一直前往， 没有人收聚逃民。
6 And afterward will I bring back again the captivity of the children of 'Ammon, saith the Lord.
后来我还要使被掳的亚扪人归回。 这是耶和华说的。
7 Concerning Edom, thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Is there no more wisdom in Theman? is counsel vanished from the prudent? is their wisdom become corrupt?
论以东。万军之耶和华如此说： 提幔中再没有智慧吗？ 明哲人不再有谋略吗？ 他们的智慧尽归无有吗？
8 They flee, turn round, seek their abode in deep places, — the inhabitants of Dedan; for the calamity of Esau do I bring upon him, the time when I visit him with punishment.
底但的居民哪，要转身逃跑， 住在深密处； 因为我向以扫追讨的时候， 必使灾殃临到他。
9 If grape-gatherers had come to thee, would they not have left some gleanings? if thieves by night, they would destroy only till they had satisfied themselves;
摘葡萄的若来到他那里， 岂不剩下些葡萄呢？ 盗贼若夜间而来， 岂不毁坏直到够了呢？
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret haunts, so that he will not be able to hide himself: his seed is wasted, and his brethren, and his neighbors, and he is no more.
我却使以扫赤露， 显出他的隐密处； 他不能自藏。 他的后裔、弟兄、邻舍尽都灭绝； 他也归于无有。
11 Leave thy fatherless children, I will have to preserve them alive: and thy widows must trust in me.
你撇下孤儿，我必保全他们的命； 你的寡妇可以倚靠我。
12 For thus hath said the Lord, Behold, they whose right it was not to drink the cup have been compelled to drink it, and art thou he that shall altogether go unpunished? thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely drink it.
耶和华如此说：“原不该喝那杯的一定要喝。你能尽免刑罚吗？你必不能免，一定要喝！”
13 For by myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, that Bozrah shall become an astonishment, a disgrace, a ruin, and a curse; and all its cities shall become perpetual ruins.
耶和华说：“我指着自己起誓，波斯拉必令人惊骇、羞辱、咒诅，并且荒凉。她的一切城邑必变为永远的荒场。”
14 A report have I heard from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, [saying, ] Gather yourselves together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle.
我从耶和华那里听见信息， 并有使者被差往列国去，说： 你们聚集来攻击以东， 要起来争战。
15 For, lo, I render thee small among the nations, despised among men.
我使你在列国中为最小， 在世人中被藐视。
16 Thy hastiness hath deceived thee, the presumption of thy heart, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill: though thou shouldst make thy nest as high as the eagle, thence would I bring thee down, saith the Lord.
住在山穴中据守山顶的啊， 论到你的威吓， 你因心中的狂傲自欺； 你虽如大鹰高高搭窝， 我却从那里拉下你来。 这是耶和华说的。
17 And Edom shall become [an object of] astonishment: every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all its wounds.
“以东必令人惊骇；凡经过的人就受惊骇，又因她一切的灾祸嗤笑。
18 Like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbors, saith the Lord, so shall no man dwell there, nor shall a son of man sojourn therein.
耶和华说：必无人住在那里，也无人在其中寄居，要像所多玛、蛾摩拉，和邻近的城邑倾覆的时候一样。
19 Behold, like a lion will he come up from the overflow of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will hasten him, [and] make him suddenly prevail against her; and him who is chosen will I array against her; for who is like me? and who will challenge me to battle? and who is that shepherd that can stand before me?
仇敌必像狮子从约旦河边的丛林上来，攻击坚固的居所。转眼之间，我要使以东人逃跑，离开这地。谁蒙拣选，我就派谁治理这地。谁能比我呢？谁能给我定规日期呢？有何牧人能在我面前站立得住呢？
20 Therefore hear the counsel of the Lord, that he hath resolved against Edom; and his purposes, that he hath devised against the inhabitants of Theman: Surely the least of the flocks shall drag them away; surely he will devastate over them their habitation.
你们要听耶和华攻击以东所说的谋略和他攻击提幔居民所定的旨意。仇敌定要将他们群众微弱的拉去，定要使他们的居所荒凉。
21 At the noise of their fall the earth quaketh: [there is] an outcry, —at the Red Sea their voice is heard.
因他们仆倒的声音，地就震动。人在红海那里必听见呼喊的声音。
22 Behold, like the eagle shall he come up and fly along, and spread out his wings over Bozrah: and the heart of the mighty men of Edom shall be on that day as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
仇敌必如大鹰飞起，展开翅膀攻击波斯拉。到那日，以东的勇士心中疼痛如临产的妇人。”
23 Concerning Damascus. Chamath and Arpad are made ashamed; for evil tidings have they heard, they are fainthearted: on the sea there is care, it is not able to be quiet.
论大马士革。 哈马和亚珥拔蒙羞， 因他们听见凶恶的信息就消化了。 海上有忧愁，不得平静。
24 Damascus is become feeble, she turneth about to flee, and trembling hath taken hold on her: pangs and throes have seized her, as a woman in travail.
大马士革发软，转身逃跑。 战兢将她捉住； 痛苦忧愁将她抓住， 如产难的妇人一样。
25 “How is the city of praise not forsaken, the town of my joy!”
我所喜乐可称赞的城， 为何被撇弃了呢？
26 Therefore shall her young men fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall perish on that day, saith the Lord of hosts.
她的少年人必仆倒在街上； 当那日，一切兵丁必默默无声。 这是万军之耶和华说的。
27 And I will kindle a fire on the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Ben-hadad.
我必在大马士革城中使火着起， 烧灭便·哈达的宫殿。
28 Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Chazor, which Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon smote, thus hath said the Lord, Arise ye, go up to Kedar, and devastate the men of the east.
论巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒所攻打的基达和夏琐的诸国。耶和华如此说： 迦勒底人哪，起来上基达去， 毁灭东方人。
29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take away; their curtains, and all their vessels and their camels shall they take to themselves: and they shall call out over them, Terror is on every side.
他们的帐棚和羊群都要夺去， 将幔子和一切器皿，并骆驼为自己掠去。 人向他们喊着说： 四围都有惊吓。
30 Flee, fly away far off, seek your abode in deep places, O ye inhabitants of Chazor, saith the Lord; for Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a device against you.
耶和华说： 夏琐的居民哪，要逃奔远方， 住在深密处； 因为巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒设计谋害你们， 起意攻击你们。
31 Arise, get you up unto the nation that is at ease, that dwelleth in security, saith the Lord, which hath neither gates nor bars, which dwelleth alone.
耶和华说： 迦勒底人哪，起来！ 上安逸无虑的居民那里去； 他们是无门无闩、独自居住的。
32 And their camels shall become a booty, and the multitude of their cattle a spoil: and I will scatter unto all winds those that have the hair cut round; and from all sides will I bring their calamity, saith the Lord.
他们的骆驼必成为掠物； 他们众多的牲畜必成为掳物。 我必将剃周围头发的人分散四方， 使灾殃从四围临到他们。 这是耶和华说的。
33 And Chazor shall become a dwelling for monsters, a desolation for ever: there shall no man dwell there, nor shall a son of man sojourn therein.
夏琐必成为野狗的住处， 永远凄凉； 必无人住在那里， 也无人在其中寄居。
34 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning 'Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah the king of Judah, saying,
犹大王西底家登基的时候，耶和华论以拦的话临到先知耶利米说：
35 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Behold, I will break the bow of 'Elam, the chief of their strength.
“万军之耶和华如此说：我必折断以拦人的弓，就是他们为首的权力。
36 And I will bring over 'Elam the four winds from the four quarters of the heavens, and I will scatter them toward all these winds: and there shall not be any nation whither shall not come the outcasts of 'Elam.
我要使四风从天的四方刮来，临到以拦人，将他们分散四方。这被赶散的人没有一国不到的。”
37 For I will cause 'Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before those that seek their life: and I will bring over them evil, the fierceness of my anger, saith the Lord: and I will send out after them the sword, till I have made an end of them.
耶和华说：“我必使以拦人在仇敌和寻索其命的人面前惊惶；我也必使灾祸，就是我的烈怒临到他们，又必使刀剑追杀他们，直到将他们灭尽。
38 And I will set up my throne in 'Elam, and I will destroy thence king and princes, saith the Lord.
我要在以拦设立我的宝座，从那里除灭君王和首领。这是耶和华说的。
39 But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring back again the captivity of 'Elam, saith the Lord.
“到末后，我还要使被掳的以拦人归回。这是耶和华说的。”
