Micah 7
1 Misery is mine. Indeed, I am like one who gathers the summer fruits, as gleanings of the vineyard: There is no cluster of grapes to eat. My soul desires to eat the early fig.
哀哉！我好像夏天的果子已被收尽， 又像摘了葡萄所剩下的， 没有一挂可吃的； 我心羡慕初熟的无花果。
2 The faithful have vanished from the earth, and there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net.
地上虔诚人灭尽； 世间没有正直人； 各人埋伏，要杀人流血， 都用网罗猎取弟兄。
3 Their hands are on that which is evil to do it diligently. The ruler and judge ask for a bribe; and the powerful man dictates the evil desire of his soul. Thus they conspire together.
他们双手作恶； 君王徇情面，审判官要贿赂； 位分大的吐出恶意， 都彼此结联行恶。
4 The best of them is like a brier. The most upright is worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen, even your visitation, has come; now is the time of their confusion.
他们最好的，不过是蒺藜； 最正直的，不过是荆棘篱笆。 你守望者说，降罚的日子已经来到。 他们必扰乱不安。
5 Do not trust in a neighbor. Do not put confidence in a friend. With the woman lying in your embrace, be careful of the words of your mouth.
不要倚赖邻舍； 不要信靠密友。 要守住你的口； 不要向你怀中的妻提说。
6 For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
因为，儿子藐视父亲； 女儿抗拒母亲； 媳妇抗拒婆婆； 人的仇敌就是自己家里的人。
7 But as for me, I will look to YHWH. I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.
至于我，我要仰望耶和华， 要等候那救我的 神； 我的 神必应允我。
8 Do not rejoice against me, my enemy. When I fall, I will arise. When I sit in darkness, YHWH will be a light to me.
我的仇敌啊，不要向我夸耀。 我虽跌倒，却要起来； 我虽坐在黑暗里， 耶和华却作我的光。
9 I will bear the indignation of YHWH, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my case, and executes judgment for me. He will bring me forth to the light. I will see his righteousness.
我要忍受耶和华的恼怒； 因我得罪了他， 直等他为我辨屈，为我伸冤。 他必领我到光明中； 我必得见他的公义。
10 Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, where is YHWH your God? Then my enemy will see me and will cover her shame. Now she will be trodden down like the mire of the streets.
那时我的仇敌， 就是曾对我说“耶和华—你 神在哪里”的， 他一看见这事就被羞愧遮盖。 我必亲眼见他遭报； 他必被践踏，如同街上的泥土。
11 A day to build your walls; in that day, he will extend your boundary.
以色列啊，日子必到， 你的墙垣必重修； 到那日，你的境界必开展。
12 In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.
当那日，人必从亚述， 从埃及的城邑， 从埃及到大河， 从这海到那海， 从这山到那山， 都归到你这里。
13 Yet the land will be desolate because of those who dwell in it, for the fruit of their doings.
然而，这地因居民的缘故， 又因他们行事的结果，必然荒凉。
14 Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your heritage, who dwell by themselves in a forest, in the midst of fertile pasture land, let them feed; in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
求耶和华在迦密山的树林中， 用你的杖牧放你独居的民， 就是你产业的羊群。 求你容他们在巴珊和基列得食物，像古时一样。
15 "As in the days of your coming forth out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things."
耶和华说： 我要把奇事显给他们看， 好像出埃及地的时候一样。
16 The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might. They will lay their hand on their mouth. Their ears will be deaf.
列国看见这事就必为自己的势力惭愧； 他们必用手捂口，掩耳不听。
17 They will lick the dust like a serpent. Like crawling creatures of the earth they shall come trembling out of their dens. They will come with fear to YHWH our God, and will be afraid because of you.
他们必舔土如蛇， 又如土中腹行的物， 战战兢兢地出他们的营寨。 他们必战惧投降耶和华， 也必因我们的 神而惧怕。
18 Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn't retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.
神啊，有何神像你，赦免罪孽， 饶恕你产业之余民的罪过， 不永远怀怒，喜爱施恩？
19 He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities under foot; and you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
必再怜悯我们， 将我们的罪孽踏在脚下， 又将我们的一切罪投于深海。
20 You will give truth to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
你必按古时起誓应许我们列祖的话， 向雅各发诚实， 向亚伯拉罕施慈爱。
