Jeremiah 22
1 The Lord seith these thingis, Go thou doun in to the hous of the kyng of Juda, and thou schalt speke there this word, and schalt seie,
耶和华如此说：“你下到犹大王的宫中，在那里说这话，
2 Thou kyng of Juda, that sittist on the seete of Dauid, here the word of the Lord, thou, and thi seruauntis, and thi puple, that entren bi these yatis.
说：‘坐大卫宝座的犹大王啊，你和你的臣仆，并进入城门的百姓，都当听耶和华的话。
3 The Lord seith these thingis, Do ye doom, and riytfulnesse, and delyuere ye hym that is oppressid bi violence fro the hond of the fals chalenger; and nyle ye make sori, nether oppresse ye wickidli a comelyng, and a fadirles child, and a widewe, and schede ye not out innocent blood in this place.
耶和华如此说：你们要施行公平和公义，拯救被抢夺的脱离欺压人的手，不可亏负寄居的和孤儿寡妇，不可以强暴待他们，在这地方也不可流无辜人的血。
4 For if ye doynge don this word, kyngis of the kyn of Dauid sittynge on his trone schulen entre bi the yatis of this hous, and schulen stie on charis and horsis, thei, and the seruauntis, and the puple of hem.
你们若认真行这事，就必有坐大卫宝座的君王和他的臣仆百姓，或坐车或骑马，从这城的各门进入。
5 That if ye heren not these wordis, Y swoore in my silf, seith the Lord, that this hous schal be in to wildirnesse.
你们若不听这些话，耶和华说：我指着自己起誓，这城必变为荒场。’
6 For the Lord seith these thingis on the hous of the kyng of Juda, Galaad, thou art to me the heed of the Liban; credence be not youun to me, if Y sette not thee a wildirnesse, citees vnhabitable.
耶和华论到犹大王的家如此说： 我看你如基列， 如黎巴嫩顶； 然而，我必使你变为旷野， 为无人居住的城邑。
7 And Y schal halewe on thee a man sleynge, and hise armuris; and thei schulen kitte doun thi chosun cedris, and schulen caste doun in to fier.
我要预备行毁灭的人， 各拿器械攻击你； 他们要砍下你佳美的香柏树， 扔在火中。
8 And many folkis schulen passe bi this citee, and ech man schal seie to his neiybore, Whi dide the Lord thus to this greet citee?
“许多国的民要经过这城，各人对邻舍说：‘耶和华为何向这大城如此行呢？’
9 And thei schulen answere, For thei forsoken the couenaunt of her Lord God, and worschipiden alien goddis, and serueden hem.
他们必回答说：‘是因离弃了耶和华—他们 神的约，事奉敬拜别神。’”
10 Nyle ye biwepe hym that is deed, nether weile ye on hym bi wepyng; biweile ye hym that goith out, for he schal no more turne ayen, nether he schal se the lond of his birthe.
不要为死人哭号； 不要为他悲伤， 却要为离家出外的人大大哭号； 因为他不得再回来， 也不得再见他的本国。
11 For the Lord seith these thingis to Sellum, the sone of Josie, the kyng of Juda, that regnede for Josye, his fadir, He that yede out of this place, schal no more turne ayen hidur;
因为耶和华论到从这地方出去的犹大王约西亚的儿子沙龙，就是接续他父亲约西亚作王的，这样说：“他必不得再回到这里来，
12 but in the place to which Y translatide him, there he schal die, and he schal no more se this lond.
却要死在被掳去的地方，必不得再见这地。”
13 Wo to him that bildith his hous in vnriytfulnesse, and his soleris not in doom; he schal oppresse his freend in veyn, and he schal not yelde his hire to hym.
那行不义盖房、行不公造楼、 白白使用人的手工不给工价的有祸了！
14 Which seith, Y schal bilde to me a large hous, and wide soleris; which openeth wyndows to hym silf, and makith couplis of cedre, and peyntith with reed colour.
他说：我要为自己盖广大的房、宽敞的楼， 为自己开窗户。 这楼房的护墙板是香柏木的， 楼房是丹色油漆的。
15 Whether thou schalt regne, for thou comparisonest thee to a cedre? whether thi fadir eet not, and drank, and dide doom and riytfulnesse thanne, whanne it was wel to hym?
难道你作王是在乎造香柏木楼房争胜吗？ 你的父亲岂不是也吃也喝、 也施行公平和公义吗？ 那时他得了福乐。
16 He demyde the cause of a pore man, and nedi, in to his good; whether not therfor for he knew me? seith the Lord.
他为困苦和穷乏人伸冤， 那时就得了福乐。 认识我不在乎此吗？ 这是耶和华说的。
17 Forsothe thin iyen and herte ben to aueryce, and to schede innocent blood, and to fals caleng, and to the perfourmyng of yuel werk.
惟有你的眼和你的心专顾贪婪， 流无辜人的血， 行欺压和强暴。
18 Therfor the Lord seith these thingis to Joachym, the sone of Josie, the kyng of Juda, Thei schulen not biweile hym, Wo brother! and wo sistir! thei schulen not sowne togidere to hym, Wo lord! and wo noble man!
所以，耶和华论到犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬如此说： 人必不为他举哀说： 哀哉！我的哥哥； 或说：哀哉！我的姐姐； 也不为他举哀说： 哀哉！我的主； 或说：哀哉！我主的荣华。
19 He schal be biried with the biriyng of an asse, he schal be rotun, and cast forth without the yatis of Jerusalem.
他被埋葬，好像埋驴一样， 要拉出去扔在耶路撒冷的城门之外。
20 Stie thou on the Liban, and cry thou, and yyue thi vois in Basan, and cry to hem that passen forth, for alle thi louyeris ben al to-brokun.
你要上黎巴嫩哀号， 在巴珊扬声， 从亚巴琳哀号， 因为你所亲爱的都毁灭了。
21 Y spak to thee in thi plentee, and thou seidist, Y schal not here; this is thi weie fro thi yongthe, for thou herdist not my vois.
你兴盛的时候，我对你说话； 你却说：我不听。 你自幼年以来总是这样， 不听从我的话。
22 Wynd schal feede alle thi scheepherdis, and thi louyeris schulen go in to caitifte;
你的牧人要被风吞吃， 你所亲爱的必被掳去； 那时你必因你一切的恶抱愧蒙羞。
23 and thanne thou that sittist in the Liban, and makist nest in cedris, schalt be schent, and be aschamed of al thi malice. Hou weilidist thou, whanne sorewis weren comun to thee, as the sorew of a womman trauelynge of child?
你这住黎巴嫩、在香柏树上搭窝的， 有痛苦临到你， 好像疼痛临到产难的妇人， 那时你何等可怜！
24 I lyue, seith the Lord, for thouy Jeconye, the sone of Joachym, kyng of Juda, were a ring in my riyt hond, fro thennus Y schal drawe awei hym.
耶和华说：“犹大王约雅敬的儿子哥尼雅，虽是我右手上带印的戒指，我凭我的永生起誓，也必将你从其上摘下来，
25 And Y schal yyue thee in the hond of hem that seken thi lijf, and in the hond of hem whos face thou dredist, and in the hond of Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and in the hond of Caldeis.
并且我必将你交给寻索你命的人和你所惧怕的人手中，就是巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒和迦勒底人的手中。
26 And Y schal sende thee, and thi moder that gendride thee, in to an alien lond, in which ye weren not borun, and there ye schulen die;
我也必将你和生你的母亲赶到别国，并不是你们生的地方；你们必死在那里，
27 and thei schulen not turne ayen in to the lond, to which thei reisen her soule, that thei turne ayen thidur.
但心中甚想归回之地，必不得归回。”
28 Whether this man Jeconye is an erthene vessel, and al to-brokun? whether a vessel withouten al likyng? Whi ben he and his seed cast awei, and cast forth in to a lond which thei knewen not?
哥尼雅这人是被轻看、破坏的器皿吗？ 是无人喜爱的器皿吗？ 他和他的后裔为何被赶到不认识之地呢？
29 Erthe, erthe, erthe, here thou the word of the Lord.
地啊，地啊，地啊，当听耶和华的话！
30 The Lord seith these thingis, Write thou this man bareyn, a man that schal not haue prosperite in hise daies; for of his seed schal be no man, that schal sitte on the seete of Dauid, and haue powere ferthere in Juda.
耶和华如此说： 要写明这人算为无子， 是平生不得亨通的； 因为他后裔中再无一人得亨通， 能坐在大卫的宝座上治理犹大。
