< Jeremiah 36 >

1 And it was don, in the fourthe yeer of Joachym, sone of Josie, kyng of Juda, this word was maad of the Lord to Jeremye, and seide,
犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬第四年,耶和华的话临到耶利米说:
2 Take thou the volym of a book, and thou schalt write therynne alle the wordis, whiche Y spake to thee ayens Israel and Juda, and ayens alle folkis, fro the dai in whiche Y spak to thee, fro the daies of Josie `til to this dai.
“你取一书卷,将我对你说攻击以色列和犹大,并各国的一切话,从我对你说话的那日,就是从约西亚的日子起直到今日,都写在其上。
3 If perauenture whanne the hous of Juda herith alle the yuels whiche Y thenke to do to hem, ech man turne ayen fro his worste weye, and Y schal be merciful to the wickidnesse and synne of hem.
或者犹大家听见我想要降与他们的一切灾祸,各人就回头,离开恶道,我好赦免他们的罪孽和罪恶。”
4 Therfor Jeremye clepide Baruk, the sone of Nerye; and Baruk wroot of the mouth of Jeremye in the volym of a book alle the wordis of the Lord, whiche he spak to hym.
所以,耶利米召了尼利亚的儿子巴录来;巴录就从耶利米口中,将耶和华对耶利米所说的一切话写在书卷上。
5 And Jeremye comaundide to Baruk, and seide, Y am closid, and Y may not entre in to the hous of the Lord.
耶利米吩咐巴录说:“我被拘管,不能进耶和华的殿。
6 Therfor entre thou, and rede of the book, in which thou hast write of my mouth the wordis of the Lord, in hering of the puple, in the hous of the Lord, in the dai of fastyng; ferthermore and in heryng of al Juda, that comen fro her citees, thou schalt rede to hem;
所以你要去趁禁食的日子,在耶和华殿中将耶和华的话,就是你从我口中所写在书卷上的话,念给百姓和一切从犹大城邑出来的人听。
7 if perauenture the preier of hem falle in the siyt of the Lord, and eche man turne ayen fro his worste weie; for whi the strong veniaunce and indignacioun is greet, which the Lord spak ayens this puple.
或者他们在耶和华面前恳求各人回头,离开恶道,因为耶和华向这百姓所说要发的怒气和忿怒是大的。”
8 And Baruk, the sone of Nerie, dide aftir alle thingis, which Jeremye, the prophete, comaundide to hym; and he redde of the book the wordis of the Lord, in the hous of the Lord.
尼利亚的儿子巴录就照先知耶利米一切所吩咐的去行,在耶和华的殿中从书上念耶和华的话。
9 Forsothe it was doon, in the fyueth yeer of Joachym, sone of Josie, kyng of Juda, in the nynthe monethe, thei prechiden fastynge in the siyt of the Lord, to al the puple in Jerusalem, and to al the multitude, that cam togidere fro the citees of Juda in to Jerusalem.
犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬第五年九月,耶路撒冷的众民和那从犹大城邑来到耶路撒冷的众民,在耶和华面前宣告禁食的日子,
10 And Baruc redde of the volym the wordis of Jeremye, in the hous of the Lord, in the treserie of Gamarie, sone of Saphan, scryuen, in the hiyere porche, in the entring of the newe yate of the hous of the Lord, in audience of al the puple.
巴录就在耶和华殿的上院,耶和华殿的新门口,沙番的儿子文士基玛利雅的屋内,念书上耶利米的话给众民听。
11 And whanne Mychie, the sone of Gamarie, sone of Saphan, hadde herd alle the wordis of the Lord,
沙番的孙子、基玛利雅的儿子米该亚听见书上耶和华的一切话,
12 of the book, he yede doun in to the hous of the kyng, to the treserye of the scryuen. And lo! alle the princes saten there, Elisama, the scryuen, and Dalaie, the sone of Semeye, and Elnathan, the sone of Achabor, and Gamarie, the sone of Saphan, and Sedechie, the sone of Ananye, and alle princes.
他就下到王宫,进入文士的屋子。众首领,就是文士以利沙玛、示玛雅的儿子第莱雅、亚革波的儿子以利拿单、沙番的儿子基玛利雅、哈拿尼雅的儿子西底家,和其余的首领都坐在那里。
13 And Mychee telde to hem alle the wordis, whiche he herde Baruc redynge of the book, in the eeris of the puple.
于是米该亚对他们述说他所听见的一切话,就是巴录向百姓念那书的时候所听见的。
14 Therfor alle the princes senten to Baruc Judi, the sone of Nathathie, sone of Selemye, sone of Chusi, and seiden, Take in thin hond the book, of which thou reddist in audience of the puple, and come thou. Therfor Baruc, the sone of Nereie, took the book in his hoond, and cam to hem.
众首领就打发古示的曾孙、示利米雅的孙子、尼探雅的儿子犹底到巴录那里,对他说:“你将所念给百姓听的书卷拿在手中到我们这里来。”尼利亚的儿子巴录就手拿书卷来到他们那里。
15 And thei seiden to hym, Sitte thou, and rede these thingis in oure eeris; and Baruc redde in the eeris of hem.
他们对他说:“请你坐下,念给我们听。”巴录就念给他们听。
16 Therfor whanne thei hadden herd alle the wordis, thei wondriden ech man to his neiybore, and thei seiden to Baruc, Owen we to telle to the kyng alle these wordis?
他们听见这一切话就害怕,面面相观,对巴录说:“我们必须将这一切话告诉王。”
17 And thei axiden hym, and seiden, Schewe thou to vs, hou thou hast write alle these wordis of his mouth.
他们问巴录说:“请你告诉我们,你怎样从他口中写这一切话呢?”
18 Forsothe Baruc seide to hem, Of his mouth he spak, as redynge to me, alle these wordis; and Y wroot in a book with enke.
巴录回答说:“他用口向我说这一切话,我就用笔墨写在书上。”
19 And alle the princes seiden to Baruc, Go, be thou hid, thou and Jeremye; and no man wite where ye ben.
众首领对巴录说:“你和耶利米要去藏起来,不可叫人知道你们在哪里。”
20 And thei entriden to the kyng, in to the halle; forsothe thei bitoken the book to be kept in to the treserie of Elisame, the scryuen. And thei telden alle the wordis, in audience of the kyng.
众首领进院见王,却先把书卷存在文士以利沙玛的屋内,以后将这一切话说给王听。
21 Therfor the kyng sente Judi, that he schulde take the book. Which took the book fro the treserie of Elysame, the scryuen, and redde in audience of the kyng, and of alle the princes, that stoden aboute the kyng.
王就打发犹底去拿这书卷来,他便从文士以利沙玛的屋内取来,念给王和王左右侍立的众首领听。
22 Forsothe the kyng sat in the wyntir hous, in the nynthe monethe; and a panne ful of coolis was set bifore hym.
那时正是九月,王坐在过冬的房屋里,王的前面火盆中有烧着的火。
23 And whanne Judi hadde red thre pagyns, ethir foure, he kittide it with the knyf of a scryueyn, and castide in to the fier, `that was in the panne, til al the book was wastid bi the fier, that was on the panne.
犹底念了三四篇,王就用文士的刀将书卷割破,扔在火盆中,直到全卷在火中烧尽了。
24 And the kyng and alle hise seruauntis, that herden alle these wordis, dredden not, nethir to-renten her clothis.
王和听见这一切话的臣仆都不惧怕,也不撕裂衣服。
25 Netheles Elnathan, and Dalaie, and Gamarie ayenseiden the kyng, that he schulde not brenne the book; and he herde not hem.
以利拿单和第莱雅,并基玛利雅恳求王不要烧这书卷,他却不听。
26 And the kyng comaundide to Jeremyel, sone of Amalech, and to Saraie, sone of Esreel, and to Selemye, sone of Abdehel, that thei schulden take Baruc, the writer, and Jeremye, the profete; forsothe the Lord hidde hem.
王就吩咐哈米勒的儿子耶拉篾和亚斯列的儿子西莱雅,并亚伯叠的儿子示利米雅,去捉拿文士巴录和先知耶利米。耶和华却将他们隐藏。
27 And the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye, the profete, aftir that the kyng hadde brent the book and wordis, whiche Baruc hadde write of Jeremyes mouth;
王烧了书卷(其上有巴录从耶利米口中所写的话)以后,耶和华的话临到耶利米说:
28 and he seid, Eft take thou another book, and write therynne alle the former wordis, that weren in the firste book, which Joachym, the kyng of Juda, brente.
“你再取一卷,将犹大王约雅敬所烧第一卷上的一切话写在其上。
29 And thou schalt seie to Joachym, kyng of Juda, The Lord seith these thingis, Thou brentist that book, and seidist, What hast thou write therynne, tellynge, The kyng of Babiloyne schal come hastynge, and schal distrie this lond, and schal make man and beeste to ceesse therof?
论到犹大王约雅敬你要说,耶和华如此说:你烧了书卷,说:‘你为什么在其上写着,说巴比伦王必要来毁灭这地,使这地上绝了人民牲畜呢?’
30 Therfor the Lord seith these thingis ayens Joachym, king of Juda, Noon schal be of hym, that schal sitte on the seete of Dauid; and his careyn schal be cast forth to the heete bi dai, and to the forst bi niyt.
所以耶和华论到犹大王约雅敬说:他后裔中必没有人坐在大卫的宝座上;他的尸首必被抛弃,白日受炎热,黑夜受寒霜。
31 And Y schal visite ayens hym, and ayens his seed, and ayens hise seruauntis, her wickidnessis. And Y schal bryng on hem, and on the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and on the men of Juda, al the yuel which Y spak to hem, and thei herden not.
我必因他和他后裔,并他臣仆的罪孽刑罚他们。我要使我所说的一切灾祸临到他们和耶路撒冷的居民,并犹大人;只是他们不听。”
32 Forsothe Jeremye took an other book, and yaf it to Baruc, the writer, the sone of Nerie, which wroot therynne of Jeremyes mouth alle the wordis of the book, which book Joachym, the kyng of Juda, hadde brent bi fier; and ferthermore many mo wordis weren addid than weren bifore.
于是,耶利米又取一书卷交给尼利亚的儿子文士巴录,他就从耶利米的口中写了犹大王约雅敬所烧前卷上的一切话,另外又添了许多相仿的话。
