Jeremiah 13
1 Thus he said Yahweh to me go and you will buy for yourself a loincloth of linen and you will put it on loins your and in water not you must cause to go it.
耶和華對我如此說：「你去買一根麻布帶子束腰，不可放在水中。」
2 And I bought the loincloth according to [the] word of Yahweh and I put [it] on loins my.
我就照着耶和華的話，買了一根帶子束腰。
3 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me a second [time] saying.
耶和華的話第二次臨到我說：
4 Take the loincloth which you bought which [is] on loins your and arise go Perath towards and hide it there in [the] cleft of the rock.
「要拿着你所買的腰帶，就是你腰上的帶子，起來往幼發拉底河去，將腰帶藏在那裏的磐石穴中。」
5 And I went and I hid it at Perath just as he had commanded Yahweh me.
我就去，照着耶和華所吩咐我的，將腰帶藏在幼發拉底河邊。
6 And it was from [the] end of days many and he said Yahweh to me arise go Perath towards and take from there the loincloth which I commanded you to hide it there.
過了多日，耶和華對我說：「你起來往幼發拉底河去，將我吩咐你藏在那裏的腰帶取出來。」
7 And I went Perath towards and I dug and I took the loincloth from the place where I had hidden it there and there! it was ruined the loincloth not it was profitable for anything.
我就往幼發拉底河去，將腰帶從我所藏的地方刨出來，見腰帶已經變壞，毫無用了。
8 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
耶和華的話臨到我說：
9 Thus he says Yahweh thus I will ruin [the] pride of Judah and [the] pride of Jerusalem great.
「耶和華如此說：我必照樣敗壞猶大的驕傲和耶路撒冷的大驕傲。
10 The people this wicked who are refusing - to hear words my who walk in [the] stubbornness of own heart their and they have walked after gods other to serve them and to bow down to them and let it be like the loincloth this which not it is profitable for anything.
這惡民不肯聽我的話，按自己頑梗的心而行，隨從別神，事奉敬拜，他們也必像這腰帶變為無用。」
11 For just as it clings loincloth to [the] loins of a person so I have made cling to me all [the] house of Israel and all [the] house of Judah [the] utterance of Yahweh to become for me a people and a name and praise and honor and not they listened.
耶和華說：「腰帶怎樣緊貼人腰，照樣，我也使以色列全家和猶大全家緊貼我，好叫他們屬我為子民，使我得名聲，得頌讚，得榮耀；他們卻不肯聽。」
12 And you will speak to them the word this. Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel every wineskin it will be filled wine and they will say to you ¿ really not do we know that every wineskin it will be filled wine.
「所以你要對他們說：『耶和華－以色列的上帝如此說：各罈都要盛滿了酒。』他們必對你說：『我們豈不確知各罈都要盛滿了酒呢？』
13 And you will say to them thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to fill all [the] inhabitants of the land this and the kings who sit for David on throne his and the priests and the prophets and all [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem drunkenness.
你就要對他們說：『耶和華如此說：我必使這地的一切居民，就是坐大衛寶座的君王和祭司，與先知，並耶路撒冷的一切居民，都酩酊大醉。』」
14 And I will smash them each to brother his and the parents and the children alike [the] utterance of Yahweh not I will show pity and not I will have mercy and not I will have compassion from destroying them.
耶和華說：「我要使他們彼此相碰，就是父與子彼此相碰；我必不可憐，不顧惜，不憐憫，以致滅絕他們。」
15 Hear and give ear may not you be haughty for Yahweh he has spoken.
你們當聽，當側耳而聽。 不要驕傲，因為耶和華已經說了。
16 Give to Yahweh God your glory before he will bring darkness and before they will stumble feet your on mountains of twilight and you will wait for light and he will make it into deep darkness (and he will make [it] *Q(K)*) into thick darkness.
耶和華－你們的上帝未使黑暗來到， 你們的腳未在昏暗山上絆跌之先， 當將榮耀歸給他； 免得你們盼望光明， 他使光明變為死蔭， 成為幽暗。
17 And if not you will listen to it in secret places it will weep self my because of pride and utterly it will weep and it may run down eye my tear[s] for it has been taken captive [the] flock of Yahweh.
你們若不聽這話， 我必因你們的驕傲在暗地哭泣； 我眼必痛哭流淚， 因為耶和華的群眾被擄去了。
18 Say to the king and to the queen-mother make low sit for it has come down [the] place of head your [the] crown of splendor your.
你要對君王和太后說： 你們當自卑，坐在下邊； 因你們的頭巾， 就是你們的華冠，已經脫落了。
19 [the] cities of The Negev they have been shut up and there not [is one who] opens it has been taken into exile Judah all of it it has been taken into exile completeness.
南方的城盡都關閉， 無人開放； 猶大全被擄掠， 且擄掠淨盡。
20 (Lift up *Q(K)*) eyes your (and see *Q(K)*) those [who] are coming from [the] north where? [is] the flock [which] it was given to you [the] sheep of beauty your.
你們要舉目觀看從北方來的人。 先前賜給你的群眾， 就是你佳美的群眾， 如今在哪裏呢？
21 What? will you say that he will appoint over you and you you taught them over you close friends to chief ¿ not labor-pains will they seize you like a woman giving birth.
耶和華立你自己所交的朋友為首，轄制你， 那時你還有甚麼話說呢？ 痛苦豈不將你抓住像產難的婦人嗎？
22 And if you will say in heart your why? have they happened to me these [things] in [the] greatness of iniquity your they have been uncovered skirts your they have suffered violence heels your.
你若心裏說：這一切事為何臨到我呢？ 你的衣襟揭起， 你的腳跟受傷， 是因你的罪孽甚多。
23 ¿ Will he change a Cushite skin his and a leopard spots its also you you will be able to do good O [those] trained to do evil.
古實人豈能改變皮膚呢？ 豹豈能改變斑點呢？ 若能，你們這習慣行惡的便能行善了。
24 And I will scatter them like chaff [which] passes away to [the] wind of [the] wilderness.
所以我必用曠野的風吹散他們， 像吹過的碎稭一樣。
25 This [is] lot your [the] portion of measure your from with me [the] utterance of Yahweh that you have forgotten me and you have trusted in falsehood.
耶和華說：這是你所當得的， 是我量給你的分； 因為你忘記我， 倚靠虛假。
26 And also I I will strip off skirts your on face your and it will be visible shame your.
所以我要揭起你的衣襟， 蒙在你臉上， 顯出你的醜陋。
27 Adulteri your and neighings your [the] wickedness of prostitution your on hills in the field I have seen detestable things your woe! to you O Jerusalem not you are clean after when? yet.
你那些可憎惡之事－ 就是在田野的山上行姦淫， 發嘶聲，做淫亂的事－ 我都看見了。 耶路撒冷啊，你有禍了！ 你不肯潔淨，還要到幾時呢？
