Jeremiah 20
1 And Pashhur son of Immer the priest—who [is] also overseer, leader in the house of YHWH—hears Jeremiah prophesying these things,
祭司音麥的兒子巴施戶珥作耶和華殿的總管，聽見耶利米預言這些事，
2 and Pashhur strikes Jeremiah the prophet, and puts him in the stocks that [are] by the Upper Gate of Benjamin, that [is] by the house of YHWH.
他就打先知耶利米，用耶和華殿裏便雅憫高門內的枷，將他枷在那裏。
3 And it comes to pass on the next day, that Pashhur brings Jeremiah out from the stocks, and Jeremiah says to him, “YHWH has not called your name Pashhur, but Terror on Every Side.
次日，巴施戶珥將耶利米開枷釋放。於是耶利米對他說：「耶和華不是叫你的名為巴施戶珥，乃是叫你瑪歌珥‧米撒畢，
4 For thus said YHWH: Behold, I am making you for a fear to yourself, And to all loving you, And they have fallen by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes are beholding, And all Judah I give into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he has removed them to Babylon, And he has struck them with the sword.
因耶和華如此說：『我必使你自覺驚嚇，你也必使眾朋友驚嚇；他們必倒在仇敵的刀下，你也必親眼看見；我必將猶大人全交在巴比倫王的手中，他要將他們擄到巴比倫去，也要用刀將他們殺戮。
5 And I have given all the strength of this city, And all its labor, and all its precious things, Indeed, I give all the treasures of the kings of Judah into the hand of their enemies, And they have spoiled them, and taken them, And have brought them into Babylon.
並且我要將這城中的一切貨財和勞碌得來的，並一切珍寶，以及猶大君王所有的寶物，都交在他們仇敵的手中；仇敵要當作掠物帶到巴比倫去。
6 And you, Pashhur, and all dwelling in your house, Go into captivity. And you enter Babylon, And there you die, and there you are buried, You and all loving you, To whom you have prophesied falsely.”
你這巴施戶珥和一切住在你家中的人都必被擄去；你和你的眾朋友，就是你向他們說假預言的，都必到巴比倫去，要死在那裏，葬在那裏。』」
7 You have persuaded me, O YHWH, and I am persuaded; You have hardened me, and prevail, I have been for a laughter all the day, Everyone is mocking at me,
耶和華啊，你曾勸導我， 我也聽了你的勸導。 你比我有力量，且勝了我。 我終日成為笑話， 人人都戲弄我。
8 Because from the time I speak I cry out, I shout, “Violence and destruction!” For the word of YHWH has been to me For reproach and for derision all the day.
我每逢講論的時候，就發出哀聲， 我喊叫說：有強暴和毀滅！ 因為耶和華的話終日成了我的凌辱、譏刺。
9 And I said, “I do not mention Him, Nor do I speak anymore in His Name,” And it has been in my heart As a burning fire shut up in my bones, And I have been weary of containing, And I am not able.
我若說：我不再提耶和華， 也不再奉他的名講論， 我便心裏覺得 似乎有燒着的火閉塞在我骨中， 我就含忍不住，不能自禁。
10 For I have heard the evil report of many, “Fear [is] all around!” “Declare, and we declare it!” All my allies are watching [for] my halting, “Perhaps he is enticed, and we prevail over him, And we take our vengeance on him.”
我聽見了許多人的讒謗， 四圍都是驚嚇； 就是我知己的朋友也都窺探我， 願我跌倒，說： 告他吧，我們也要告他！ 或者他被引誘， 我們就能勝他， 在他身上報仇。
11 And YHWH [is] with me, as a mighty, awesome One, Therefore my persecutors stumble and do not prevail, They have been exceedingly ashamed, For they have not acted wisely, Continuous confusion is not forgotten.
然而，耶和華與我同在， 好像甚可怕的勇士。 因此，逼迫我的必都絆跌， 不能得勝； 他們必大大蒙羞， 就是受永不忘記的羞辱， 因為他們行事沒有智慧。
12 And, O YHWH of Hosts, trier of the righteous, Beholder of reins and heart, I see Your vengeance on them, For I have revealed my cause to you.
試驗義人、察看人肺腑心腸的萬軍之耶和華啊， 求你容我見你在他們身上報仇， 因我將我的案件向你稟明了。
13 Sing to YHWH, praise YHWH, For He has delivered the soul of the needy From the hand of evildoers.
你們要向耶和華唱歌； 讚美耶和華！ 因他救了窮人的性命脫離惡人的手。
14 Cursed [is] the day in which I was born, The day that my mother bore me, Let it not be blessed!
願我生的那日受咒詛； 願我母親產我的那日不蒙福！
15 Cursed [is] the man who bore tidings [to] my father, Saying, “A male child has been born to you,” Making him very glad!
給我父親報信說「你得了兒子」， 使我父親甚歡喜的， 願那人受咒詛。
16 Then that man has been as the cities, That YHWH overthrew, and did not relent, And he has heard a cry in the morning, And a shout at noontime.
願那人像耶和華所傾覆而不後悔的城邑； 願他早晨聽見哀聲， 晌午聽見吶喊；
17 Because he has not put me to death from the womb, And my mother is to me—my grave, And her womb [is] a perpetual pregnancy.
因他在我未出胎的時候不殺我， 使我母親成了我的墳墓， 胎就時常重大。
18 Why [is] this? I have come out from the womb To see labor and sorrow, Indeed, my days are consumed in shame!
我為何出胎見勞碌愁苦， 使我的年日因羞愧消滅呢？
