Jeremiah 39
1 It happened when Jerusalem was taken, (in the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army against Jerusalem, and besieged it;
犹大王西底家第九年十月，巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒率领全军来围困耶路撒冷。
2 in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city).
西底家十一年四月初九日，城被攻破。
3 Then all the officials of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the Middle Gate, Nergal-sar-ezer of Samgar, Nebu-sar-sekim the Rab-saris, Nergal-sar-ezer the Rab-mag, with all the rest of the officers of the king of Babylon.
耶路撒冷被攻取的时候，巴比伦王的首领尼甲·沙利薛、三甲·尼波、撒西金—拉撒力、尼甲·沙利薛—拉墨，并巴比伦王其余的一切首领都来坐在中门。
4 It happened that, when Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, through the gate between the two walls; and he went out toward the Arabah.
犹大王西底家和一切兵丁看见他们，就在夜间从靠近王园两城中间的门出城逃跑，往亚拉巴逃去。
5 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment on him.
迦勒底的军队追赶他们，在耶利哥的平原追上西底家，将他拿住，带到哈马地的利比拉、巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒那里；尼布甲尼撒就审判他。
6 Then the king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes: also the king of Babylon killed all the nobles of Judah.
巴比伦王在利比拉、西底家眼前杀了他的众子，又杀了犹大的一切贵胄，
7 Moreover he put out Zedekiah's eyes, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
并且剜西底家的眼睛，用铜链锁着他，要带到巴比伦去。
8 The Chaldeans burned the king's house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
迦勒底人用火焚烧王宫和百姓的房屋，又拆毁耶路撒冷的城墙。
9 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the residue of the people who remained in the city, the deserters also who fell away to him, and the residue of the people who remained.
那时，护卫长尼布撒拉旦将城里所剩下的百姓和投降他的逃民，以及其余的民都掳到巴比伦去了。
10 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, who had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
护卫长尼布撒拉旦却将民中毫无所有的穷人留在犹大地，当时给他们葡萄园和田地。
11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon commanded Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard concerning Jeremiah, saying,
巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒提到耶利米，嘱咐护卫长尼布撒拉旦说：
12 "Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do to him even as he shall tell you."
“你领他去，好好地看待他，切不可害他；他对你怎么说，你就向他怎么行。”
13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard sent, and Nebushazban the Rab-saris, Nergal-sar-ezer the Rab-mag and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon;
护卫长尼布撒拉旦和尼布沙斯班—拉撒力、尼甲·沙利薛—拉墨，并巴比伦王的一切官长，
14 they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home: so he lived among the people.
打发人去，将耶利米从护卫兵院中提出来，交与沙番的孙子亚希甘的儿子基大利，带回家去。于是耶利米住在民中。
15 Now the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
耶利米还囚在护卫兵院中的时候，耶和华的话临到他说：
16 "Go, and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, 'Thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: "Look, I will bring my words on this city for disaster, and not for prosperity; and they shall be fulfilled before you in that day.
“你去告诉古实人以伯·米勒说，万军之耶和华—以色列的 神如此说：我说降祸不降福的话必临到这城，到那时必在你面前成就了。
17 But I will deliver you in that day, says Jehovah; and you shall not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.
耶和华说：到那日我必拯救你，你必不致交在你所怕的人手中。
18 For I will surely save you, and you shall not fall by the sword, but your life will be given to you as a reward; because you have put your trust in me,"' says Jehovah."
我定要搭救你，你不致倒在刀下，却要以自己的命为掠物，因你倚靠我。这是耶和华说的。”
