< Jeremiah 36 >
1 And it was in the year fourth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah it came the word this to Jeremiah from with Yahweh saying.
猶大王史約雅內的兒子約雅金第四年,上主有話傳給耶肋米亞說
2 Take for yourself a scroll of a document and you will write to it all the words which I have spoken to you on Israel and on Judah and on all the nations from [the] day [when] I spoke to you from [the] days of Josiah and until the day this.
:「你拿卷冊來,寫上自我由約史雅時日,對你說話那一天以來,直到今日,關於耶路撒冷和猶大及列邦對你所說的一切話,
3 Perhaps they will hear [the] house of Judah all the harm which I [am] planning to do to them so that they may turn back everyone from way his evil and I will forgive iniquity their and sin their.
也許猶大家聽了我有意對他們施行的一切災禍,會各自離棄自己的邳道,叫我好寬恕他們的過犯和罪惡」。
4 And he called Jeremiah Baruch [the] son of Neriah and he wrote Baruch from [the] mouth of Jeremiah all [the] words of Yahweh which he had spoken to him on a scroll of a document.
於是耶肋米亞叫了乃雅黎的兒子巴路克來;路克來依照耶肋米亞的口授,在卷冊上寫上了上主對先知說的一切話。
5 And he commanded Jeremiah Baruch saying I [am] shut up not I am able to go [the] house of Yahweh.
耶肋米亞吩咐巴路克說:「我被阻止,不能到上主的殿宇去,
6 And you will go you and you will read aloud in the scroll which you have written from mouth my [the] words of Yahweh in [the] ears of the people [the] house of Yahweh on a day of fasting and also in [the] ears of all Judah who are coming from cities their you will read aloud them.
所以你去,在一個禁食的日子上,誦讀卷冊上依我口授寫的上主的話,給在上主殿裏的全體人民聽,也讀給來自各城的全體猶大人聽,
7 Perhaps it will fall supplication their before Yahweh so they may turn back everyone from way his evil for [is] great the anger and the rage which he has spoken Yahweh against the people this.
也許他們會向上主哀求,各自會離棄自己的邳道,因為上主對這人民用以恐嚇的憤恨和憤怒,真正厲害! 」
8 And he did Baruch [the] son of Neriah according to all that he had commanded him Jeremiah the prophet to read aloud in the scroll [the] words of Yahweh [the] house of Yahweh.
乃黎雅的兒子巴路克全按耶肋米亞先知吩咐的做了:在上主殿宇裏,宣讀了卷冊上主的話。
9 And it was in the year fifth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah in the month ninth they proclaimed a fast before Yahweh all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who were coming from [the] cities of Judah in Jerusalem.
猶大王約史雅的兒子約雅金第五年九月,耶路撒冷全體人民以及從猶大城市來到耶路撒冷的全體人民,集合在上主面前宣佈禁食。
10 And he read aloud Baruch in the scroll [the] words of Jeremiah [the] house of Yahweh in [the] room of Gemariah [the] son of Shaphan the scribe in the court upper [the] entrance of [the] gate of [the] house of Yahweh new in [the] ears of all the people.
巴路克就乘機在上主殿宇內,沙番的兒子革馬黎雅書記的房子那裏,即上院靠近上主殿宇新門的進口處,宣讀卷冊上耶肋米亞的話,給全體人民聽。
11 And he heard Micaiah [the] son of Gemariah [the] son of Shaphan all [the] words of Yahweh from on the scroll.
沙番的兒子革馬黎雅的兒子米加雅,聽了卷冊上所有的上主的話,
12 And he went down [the] house of the king to [the] room of the scribe and there! there all the officials [were] sitting Elishama the scribe and Delaiah [the] son of Shemaiah and Elnathan [the] son of Achbor and Gemariah [the] son of Shaphan and Zedekiah [the] son of Hananiah and all the officials.
就下到王宮書記的事務所內,看,眾首長都正坐在那裏,有書記厄里沙瑪,舍瑪雅的兒子德拉雅,阿革波爾的兒子厄耳納堂,沙番的兒子革馬黎雅,哈紇尼雅的兒子漆德克雅和其餘的首長。
13 And he told to them Micaiah all the words which he had heard when read aloud Baruch in the scroll in [the] ears of the people.
米加雅就把自己在巴路克給人民宣讀卷冊時所聽到的所有話,告訴了他們。
14 And they sent all the officials to Baruch Jehudi [the] son of Nethaniah [the] son of Shelemiah [the] son of Cushi saying the scroll which you have read aloud in it in [the] ears of the people take it in hand your and come and he took Baruch [the] son of Neriah the scroll in hand his and he went to them.
眾首長便派乃塔尼雅的兒子猶狄和雇史的兒子舍肋米亞到巴路克那裏說:「請你來,並請你隨手帶上你讀給人民的那軸卷冊」。乃肋米亞的兒子巴路克立即手內拿上那軸卷冊,到他們那裏去了。
15 And they said to him sit please and read aloud it in ears our and he read [it] aloud Baruch in ears their.
你們對他說:「請坐,讀給我們聽! 」巴路克讀給他們聽了。
16 And it was when heard they all the words they were in dread each to neighbor his and they said to Baruch certainly we will tell to the king all the things these.
他們聽了這一切話,彼此不勝驚慌說:「我們必須將這一切話稟告君王! 」
17 And Baruch they asked saying tell please to us how? did you write all the words these from mouth his.
然後問巴路克說:「請你告訴我們:你怎樣由耶肋米亞的口授寫了這一切話﹖」
18 And he said to them Baruch from mouth his he proclaimed to me all the words these and I [was] writing on the scroll with ink.
巴路克答覆他們說:「這一切話都是他口授給我的,我只不過用筆記錄在這卷冊上」。
19 And they said the officials to Baruch go hide yourself you and Jeremiah and anyone may not he know where? [are] you.
於是首長對巴路克說:「你快去和耶肋米亞藏起來,不要讓人知道你們藏在哪裏」。
20 And they went to the king [the] court towards and the scroll they had deposited in [the] room of Elishama the scribe and they told in [the] ears of the king all the things.
然後他們一同到內殿去拜見君王,那卷冊卻留在書記厄里沙瑪室內,只將這一切話稟告了君王。
21 And he sent the king Jehudi to fetch the scroll and he fetched it from [the] room of Elishama the scribe and he read aloud it Jehudi in [the] ears of the king and in [the] ears of all the officials who were standing from with the king.
君王於是打發猶狄去取那軸卷冊;猶狄由書記厄里沙瑪室內取了來,讀給君王和環立在君王旁的眾朝臣聽。
22 And the king [was] sitting [the] house of the winter in the month ninth and the fire-pot before him [was] kindled.
那時正是九月,君王住在冬宮裏,面前正燒著一盆火,
23 And it was - when read aloud Jehudi three doors and four he tore it with [the] knife of the scribe and he threw [it] into the fire which [was] to the fire-pot until was consumed all the scroll on the fire which [was] on the fire-pot.
猶狄只讀了三四行,君王就用書記的刀把它割下,拋在火盆裏,直到那卷冊在火盆內被燒盡。
24 And not they were afraid and not they tore clothes their the king and all servants his who heard all the words these.
君王與眾臣僕言這一切話,毫不害怕,也不撕裂自己的衣服,
25 And also Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah they had made entreaty with the king to not to burn the scroll and not he listened to them.
雖然厄耳納堂和德拉雅及革瑪黎雅曾苦苦哀求君王不要燒毀那軸卷冊,
26 And he commanded the king Jerahmeel [the] son of the king and Seraiah [the] son of Azriel and Shelemiah [the] son of Abdeel to seize Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet and he hid them Yahweh.
反命王子耶辣默耳,阿次黎耳的兒子色辣雅和哈德耳的兒子舍肋米雅,去逮捕書記巴路克和先知耶肋米亞;但是上主卻將他們藏起來了。
27 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah after - burned the king the scroll and the words which he had written Baruch from [the] mouth of Jeremiah saying.
君王焚燒了那軸載有巴路克由耶肋米亞口授記錄的話的卷冊以後,有上主的話傳給耶肋米亞說:
28 Return take for yourself a scroll another and write on it all the words former which they were on the scroll former which he burned Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah.
「你拿另一卷冊來,寫上猶大王約雅金所燒毀的前一軸卷冊上的一切話。
29 And to Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah (you will say *LA(bh)*) thus he says Yahweh you you burned the scroll this saying why? did you write on it saying certainly he will come [the] king of Babylon and he will destroy the land this and he will cause to cease from it human being and animal.
關於猶大王約雅金你應說:上主這樣說:你燒毀了這軸卷冊說:為什麼你在上面寫道:巴比倫王必來破壞這地方,消滅這地方 的人民和獸﹖
30 Therefore thus he says Yahweh on Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah not he will belong to him [one who] sits on [the] throne of David and corpse his it will be thrown out to the heat in the day and to the frost in the night.
為此上主關於猶大王約雅金這樣說:他必沒有人繼坐達味的寶座,死後必棄屍原野,遭受日晒夜露。
31 And I will visit on him and on offspring his and on servants his iniquity their and I will bring on them and on [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem and to everyone of Judah all the calamity which I have spoken against them and not they listened.
對他和他的後裔及臣僕,我要懲罰他們的罪惡,給他們和耶路撒冷居民及猶大人,召來我向他們預告,他們卻不理會的一切災禍」。
32 And Jeremiah he took - a scroll another and he gave it to Baruch [the] son of Neriah the scribe and he wrote on it from [the] mouth of Jeremiah all [the] words of the scroll which he had burned Jehoiakim [the] king of Judah in the fire and again it was added to them words many like them.
耶肋米亞就拿來另一軸卷冊,交給書記乃黎雅的兒子巴路克。巴路克依照耶肋米亞的口授,在上面筆錄了猶大王約雅金,在火中燒毀了的那卷冊上所有的話;並且還加添了許多相類似的話。
