Jeremiah 20
1 Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the cohen, who was chief officer in the house of the LORD, heard 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 Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the Upper Gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of the LORD.
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 It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, "The LORD has not called your name 'Pashhur,' but 'Magor-Missabib.'
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 says the LORD, 'Look, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it; and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to Babylon, and shall kill 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 Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all the precious things of it, yes, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and they shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to 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 You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into captivity; and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die, and there you shall be buried, you, and all your friends, 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 LORD, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded. You are stronger than I am, and have prevailed. I have become a laughing-stock all day long; everyone mocks 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 For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, "Violence and destruction." because the word of the LORD is made a reproach to me, and a 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 If I say, "I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name," then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can't contain it.
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 defaming of many, terror on every side. "Denounce, and we will denounce him," say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; "perhaps he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge 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 But the LORD is with me as an awesome mighty one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be 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 But, the LORD of hosts, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them; for to you have I revealed my cause.
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 the LORD, praise the LORD; 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: do not let the day in which my mother bore me 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 brought news to my father, saying, A boy is 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 Let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and did not repent: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting 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 did not kill me from the womb; and so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
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 came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
我為何出胎見勞碌愁苦， 使我的年日因羞愧消滅呢？
