< Malachi 1 >
1 The birthun of the word of the Lord to Israel, in the hond of Malachie, the profete.
耶和华借玛拉基传给以色列的默示。
2 Y louyde you, seith the Lord, and ye seiden, In what thing louydist thou vs? Whether Esau was not the brother of Jacob, seith the Lord, and Y louyde Jacob,
耶和华说:“我曾爱你们。”你们却说:“你在何事上爱我们呢?”耶和华说:“以扫不是雅各的哥哥吗?我却爱雅各,
3 forsothe Y hatide Esau? And Y haue put Seir the hillis of hym in to wildirnesse, and his eritage in to dragouns of desert.
恶以扫,使他的山岭荒凉,把他的地业交给旷野的野狗。”
4 That if Idumee seith, We ben distried, but we schulen turne ayen, and bilde tho thingis that ben distried; the Lord of oostis seith these thingis, These schulen bilde, and Y schal distrie; and thei schulen be clepid termes of wickidnesse, and a puple to whom the Lord is wroth, til in to with outen ende.
以东人说:“我们现在虽被毁坏,却要重建荒废之处。”万军之耶和华如此说:“任他们建造,我必拆毁;人必称他们的地为‘罪恶之境’;称他们的民为‘耶和华永远恼怒之民’。”
5 And youre iyen schulen se, and ye schulen seie, The Lord be magnefied on the terme of Israel.
你们必亲眼看见,也必说:“愿耶和华在以色列境界之外被尊为大!”
6 The sone onourith the fader, and the seruaunt schal drede his lord; therfor if Y am fadir, wher is myn onour? and if Y am lord, where is my drede? seith the Lord of oostis. A! ye prestis, to you that dispisen my name; and ye seiden, Wherynne han we dispisid thi name?
“藐视我名的祭司啊,万军之耶和华对你们说:儿子尊敬父亲,仆人敬畏主人;我既为父亲,尊敬我的在哪里呢?我既为主人,敬畏我的在哪里呢?你们却说:‘我们在何事上藐视你的名呢?’
7 Ye offren on myn auter vncleene breed, and ye seien, Wherynne han we defoulid thee? In that thing that ye seien, The boord of the Lord is dispisid.
你们将污秽的食物献在我的坛上,且说:‘我们在何事上污秽你呢?’因你们说,耶和华的桌子是可藐视的。
8 If ye offren a blynd beest to be sacrifisid, whether it is not yuel? And if ye offren a crokid and sike beeste, whether it is not yuel? Offre thou it to thi duyk, if it schal plese hym, ether if he schal resseyue thi face, seith the Lord of oostis.
你们将瞎眼的献为祭物,这不为恶吗?将瘸腿的、有病的献上,这不为恶吗?你献给你的省长,他岂喜悦你,岂能看你的情面吗?这是万军之耶和华说的。
9 And now biseche ye the cheer of the Lord, that he haue merci on you; for of youre hond this thing is doon, if in ony maner he resseiue youre faces, seith the Lord of oostis.
“现在我劝你们恳求 神,他好施恩与我们。这妄献的事,既由你们经手,他岂能看你们的情面吗?这是万军之耶和华说的。
10 Who is `in you that closith doris, and brenneth myn auter `of his owne wille, ethir freli? Wille is not to me in you, seith the Lord of oostis; and Y schal not resseyue a yifte of youre hond.
甚愿你们中间有一人关上殿门,免得你们徒然在我坛上烧火。万军之耶和华说:我不喜悦你们,也不从你们手中收纳供物。
11 For fro rysyng of the sunne til to goyng doun, my name is greet in hethene men; and in ech place a cleene offring is sacrifisid, and offrid to my name; for my name is greet in hethene men, seith the Lord of oostis.
万军之耶和华说:从日出之地到日落之处,我的名在外邦中必尊为大。在各处,人必奉我的名烧香,献洁净的供物,因为我的名在外邦中必尊为大。
12 And ye han defoulid it in that that ye seien, The boord of the Lord is defoulid, and that that is put aboue is `worthi to be dispisid, with fier that deuourith it.
你们却亵渎我的名,说:‘耶和华的桌子是污秽的,其上的食物是可藐视的。’
13 And ye seiden, Lo! of trauel; and ye han blowe it a wei, seith the Lord of oostis. And ye brouyten in of raueyns a crokid thlng and sijk, and brouyten in a yifte; whether Y schal resseyue it of youre hond? seith the Lord.
你们又说:‘这些事何等烦琐!’并嗤之以鼻。这是万军之耶和华说的。你们把抢夺的、瘸腿的、有病的拿来献上为祭。我岂能从你们手中收纳呢?这是耶和华说的。
14 Cursid is the gileful, that hath in his floc a male beeste, and `he makynge a vow offrith a feble to the Lord; for Y am a greet kyng, seith the Lord of oostis, and my name is dredeful `in folkis.
行诡诈的在群中有公羊,他许愿却用有残疾的献给主,这人是可咒诅的。因为我是大君王,我的名在外邦中是可畏的。这是万军之耶和华说的。
