耶利米書

第11章

1 耶和華諭耶利米、

2 俾告猶大族、耶路撒冷居民、咸聆盟約之言、

3 曰以色列族之上帝耶和華云、昔我導爾祖出埃及、如脫冶鑪、諭之曰、我所命爾必聽、則可爲我民、我爲爾上帝、

4 併於上節

5 我與爾祖誓、錫以產乳與蜜之地、必踐前言、今日之事爲徵、如爾不從斯約之言、禍必不遠。耶利米曰、耶和華歟、余敢不惟命是行。

6 耶和華使耶利米、播告於猶大諸邑、及耶路撒冷逵衢、云、宜聽斯約之言、遵從弗失、

7 自我導爾祖出埃及、以迄今日、我屢訓迪、曰、宜聽我命、

8 彼不肯從、不傾耳以聽、乃縱欲行惡、我所命之約、彼不恪守、我已降罰、循約所言。

9 耶和華又告耶利米曰、猶大人、及耶路撒冷居民、咸謀叛逆、予鑒察之。

10 其列祖不聽我言、崇事他上帝、彼乃效尤、我與彼祖結約、以色列族、及猶大家、爽我盟約。

11 故我耶和華必降災其身、使彼不能逃避、彼雖龥我、我必不應、

12 猶大諸邑、各事一上帝、耶路撒冷諸逵衢、各立一祭壇、焚香崇拜可惡之物巴力、不知患難之時、雖龥呼之、弗蒙拯救、

13 併於上節

14 惟爾先知勿爲斯民祈禱、彼罹禍害、呼龥於上、我必不應、

15 我之選民、樂與衆同惡、尚入我殿、以獻聖胙、亦奚以爲。

16 我耶和華以爾爲橄欖、枝葉葱蘢、結果繁庶、今威聲大振、火燃焰騰、焚其枝葉。

17 我萬有之主耶和華、昔培植爾、今降爾以災、蓋以色列族猶大家、焚香崇事巴力、干我震怒。

18 耶利米曰、民謀害予、乃蒙耶和華默示、俾我灼知、

19 人謀害我、我昔不知、譬彼羔羊、其性柔順、將就死地、人曰、當滅其生命、若伐木剝果、使名不存。

20 萬有之主耶和華歟、爾鑒察人心、惟秉公義、我訴於爾前、爾其雪忿、使我目覩。

21 萬有之主耶和華曰、亞拿突居民、旣謀害爾、使爾不託我名而設教、言必戮爾、故我必罰之、使其壯士飲刃受戮、子女饑餓而死。

22 併於上節

23 屆期降災於亞拿突人、使無孑遺。

Chapter 11

1 The word1697 that came1961 to Jeremiah3414 from the LORD 3068saying,559

2 Hear8085 you the words1697 of this2088 covenant,1285 and speak1696 to the men376 of Judah,3063 and to the inhabitants3427 of Jerusalem;3389

3 And say559 you to them, Thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 God430 of Israel;3478 Cursed779 be the man376 that obeys8085 not the words1697 of this2088 covenant,1285

4 Which834 I commanded6680 your fathers1 in the day3117 that I brought3318 them forth3318 out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 from the iron1270 furnace,3564 saying,559 Obey8085 my voice,6963 and do6213 them, according to all3605 which834 I command6680 you: so shall you be my people,5971 and I will be your God:430

5 That I may perform6965 the oath7621 which834 I have sworn7650 to your fathers,1 to give5414 them a land776 flowing2100 with milk2461 and honey,1706 as it is this2088 day.3117 Then answered6030 I, and said,559 So543 be it, O LORD.3068

6 Then the LORD3068 said559 to me, Proclaim7121 all3605 these428 words1697 in the cities5892 of Judah,3063 and in the streets2351 of Jerusalem,3389 saying,559 Hear8085 you the words1697 of this2088 covenant,1285 and do6213 them.

7 For I earnestly protested5749 to your fathers1 in the day3117 that I brought5927 them up out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 even to this2088 day,3117 rising7925 early7925 and protesting,5749 saying,559 Obey8085 my voice.6963

8 Yet they obeyed8085 not, nor3808 inclined5186 their ear,241 but walked3212 every376 one376 in the imagination8307 of their evil7451 heart:3820 therefore I will bring935 on them all3605 the words1697 of this2088 covenant,1285 which834 I commanded6680 them to do:6213 but they did6213 them not.

9 And the LORD3068 said559 to me, A conspiracy7195 is found4672 among the men376 of Judah,3063 and among the inhabitants3427 of Jerusalem.3389

10 They are turned7725 back7725 to the iniquities5771 of their forefathers,1 7223 which834 refused3985 to hear8085 my words;1697 and they went1980 after310 other312 gods430 to serve5647 them: the house1004 of Israel3478 and the house1004 of Judah3063 have broken6565 my covenant1285 which834 I made3772 with their fathers.1

11 Therefore3651 thus3541 said559 the LORD,3068 Behold,2005 I will bring935 evil7451 on them, which834 they shall not be able3201 to escape;3318 and though they shall cry2199 to me, I will not listen8085 to them.

12 Then shall the cities5892 of Judah3063 and inhabitants3427 of Jerusalem3389 go,1980 and cry2199 to the gods430 to whom834 1992 they offer incense:6999 but they shall not save3467 them at all in the time6256 of their trouble.7451

13 For according to the number4557 of your cities5892 were your gods,430 O Judah;3063 and according to the number4557 of the streets2351 of Jerusalem3389 have you set7760 up altars4196 to that shameful1322 thing, even altars4196 to burn6999 incense6999 to Baal.1168

14 Therefore pray6419 not you for this2088 people,5971 neither408 lift5375 up a cry7440 or prayer8605 for them: for I will not hear8085 them in the time6256 that they cry7121 to me for their trouble.7451

15 What4100 has my beloved3039 to do in my house,1004 seeing she has worked6213 lewdness4209 with many,7227 and the holy6944 flesh1320 is passed5674 from you? when3588 you do evil,7451 then227 you rejoice.5937

16 The LORD3068 called7121 your name,8034 A green7488 olive2132 tree, fair,3303 and of goodly3303 8389 fruit:6529 with the noise6963 of a great1419 tumult1999 he has kindled3341 fire784 on it, and the branches1808 of it are broken.7489

17 For the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 that planted5193 you, has pronounced1696 evil7451 against5921 you, for the evil7451 of the house1004 of Israel3478 and of the house1004 of Judah,3063 which834 they have done6213 against themselves1992 to provoke me to anger3707 in offering incense6999 to Baal.1168

18 And the LORD3068 has given me knowledge3045 of it, and I know3045 it: then227 you showed7200 me their doings.4611

19 But I was like a lamb3532 or an ox441 that is brought2986 to the slaughter;2873 and I knew3045 not that they had devised2803 devices4284 against5921 me, saying, Let us destroy7843 the tree6086 with the fruit3899 thereof, and let us cut3772 him off from the land776 of the living,2416 that his name8034 may be no3808 more5750 remembered.2142

20 But, O LORD3068 of hosts,6635 that judge8199 righteously,6664 that try974 the reins3629 and the heart,3820 let me see7200 your vengeance5360 on them: for to you have I revealed1540 my cause.7379

21 Therefore3651 thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of the men582 of Anathoth,6068 that seek1245 your life,5315 saying,559 Prophesy5012 not in the name8034 of the LORD,3068 that you die4191 not by our hand:3027

22 Therefore3651 thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 Behold,2005 I will punish6485 them: the young970 men shall die4191 by the sword;2719 their sons1121 and their daughters1323 shall die4191 by famine:7458

23 And there shall be no3808 remnant7611 of them: for I will bring935 evil7451 on the men582 of Anathoth,6068 even the year8141 of their visitation.6486

3 And say559 you to them, Thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 God430 of Israel;3478 Cursed779 be the man376 that obeys8085 not the words1697 of this2088 covenant,1285

4 併於上節

4 Which834 I commanded6680 your fathers1 in the day3117 that I brought3318 them forth3318 out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 from the iron1270 furnace,3564 saying,559 Obey8085 my voice,6963 and do6213 them, according to all3605 which834 I command6680 you: so shall you be my people,5971 and I will be your God:430

5 我與爾祖誓、錫以產乳與蜜之地、必踐前言、今日之事爲徵、如爾不從斯約之言、禍必不遠。耶利米曰、耶和華歟、余敢不惟命是行。

5 That I may perform6965 the oath7621 which834 I have sworn7650 to your fathers,1 to give5414 them a land776 flowing2100 with milk2461 and honey,1706 as it is this2088 day.3117 Then answered6030 I, and said,559 So543 be it, O LORD.3068

6 耶和華使耶利米、播告於猶大諸邑、及耶路撒冷逵衢、云、宜聽斯約之言、遵從弗失、

6 Then the LORD3068 said559 to me, Proclaim7121 all3605 these428 words1697 in the cities5892 of Judah,3063 and in the streets2351 of Jerusalem,3389 saying,559 Hear8085 you the words1697 of this2088 covenant,1285 and do6213 them.

7 自我導爾祖出埃及、以迄今日、我屢訓迪、曰、宜聽我命、

7 For I earnestly protested5749 to your fathers1 in the day3117 that I brought5927 them up out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 even to this2088 day,3117 rising7925 early7925 and protesting,5749 saying,559 Obey8085 my voice.6963

8 彼不肯從、不傾耳以聽、乃縱欲行惡、我所命之約、彼不恪守、我已降罰、循約所言。

8 Yet they obeyed8085 not, nor3808 inclined5186 their ear,241 but walked3212 every376 one376 in the imagination8307 of their evil7451 heart:3820 therefore I will bring935 on them all3605 the words1697 of this2088 covenant,1285 which834 I commanded6680 them to do:6213 but they did6213 them not.

9 耶和華又告耶利米曰、猶大人、及耶路撒冷居民、咸謀叛逆、予鑒察之。

9 And the LORD3068 said559 to me, A conspiracy7195 is found4672 among the men376 of Judah,3063 and among the inhabitants3427 of Jerusalem.3389

10 其列祖不聽我言、崇事他上帝、彼乃效尤、我與彼祖結約、以色列族、及猶大家、爽我盟約。

10 They are turned7725 back7725 to the iniquities5771 of their forefathers,1 7223 which834 refused3985 to hear8085 my words;1697 and they went1980 after310 other312 gods430 to serve5647 them: the house1004 of Israel3478 and the house1004 of Judah3063 have broken6565 my covenant1285 which834 I made3772 with their fathers.1

11 故我耶和華必降災其身、使彼不能逃避、彼雖龥我、我必不應、

11 Therefore3651 thus3541 said559 the LORD,3068 Behold,2005 I will bring935 evil7451 on them, which834 they shall not be able3201 to escape;3318 and though they shall cry2199 to me, I will not listen8085 to them.

12 猶大諸邑、各事一上帝、耶路撒冷諸逵衢、各立一祭壇、焚香崇拜可惡之物巴力、不知患難之時、雖龥呼之、弗蒙拯救、

12 Then shall the cities5892 of Judah3063 and inhabitants3427 of Jerusalem3389 go,1980 and cry2199 to the gods430 to whom834 1992 they offer incense:6999 but they shall not save3467 them at all in the time6256 of their trouble.7451

14 惟爾先知勿爲斯民祈禱、彼罹禍害、呼龥於上、我必不應、

14 Therefore pray6419 not you for this2088 people,5971 neither408 lift5375 up a cry7440 or prayer8605 for them: for I will not hear8085 them in the time6256 that they cry7121 to me for their trouble.7451

15 我之選民、樂與衆同惡、尚入我殿、以獻聖胙、亦奚以爲。

15 What4100 has my beloved3039 to do in my house,1004 seeing she has worked6213 lewdness4209 with many,7227 and the holy6944 flesh1320 is passed5674 from you? when3588 you do evil,7451 then227 you rejoice.5937

16 我耶和華以爾爲橄欖、枝葉葱蘢、結果繁庶、今威聲大振、火燃焰騰、焚其枝葉。

16 The LORD3068 called7121 your name,8034 A green7488 olive2132 tree, fair,3303 and of goodly3303 8389 fruit:6529 with the noise6963 of a great1419 tumult1999 he has kindled3341 fire784 on it, and the branches1808 of it are broken.7489

17 我萬有之主耶和華、昔培植爾、今降爾以災、蓋以色列族猶大家、焚香崇事巴力、干我震怒。

17 For the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 that planted5193 you, has pronounced1696 evil7451 against5921 you, for the evil7451 of the house1004 of Israel3478 and of the house1004 of Judah,3063 which834 they have done6213 against themselves1992 to provoke me to anger3707 in offering incense6999 to Baal.1168

18 耶利米曰、民謀害予、乃蒙耶和華默示、俾我灼知、

18 And the LORD3068 has given me knowledge3045 of it, and I know3045 it: then227 you showed7200 me their doings.4611

19 人謀害我、我昔不知、譬彼羔羊、其性柔順、將就死地、人曰、當滅其生命、若伐木剝果、使名不存。

19 But I was like a lamb3532 or an ox441 that is brought2986 to the slaughter;2873 and I knew3045 not that they had devised2803 devices4284 against5921 me, saying, Let us destroy7843 the tree6086 with the fruit3899 thereof, and let us cut3772 him off from the land776 of the living,2416 that his name8034 may be no3808 more5750 remembered.2142

20 萬有之主耶和華歟、爾鑒察人心、惟秉公義、我訴於爾前、爾其雪忿、使我目覩。

20 But, O LORD3068 of hosts,6635 that judge8199 righteously,6664 that try974 the reins3629 and the heart,3820 let me see7200 your vengeance5360 on them: for to you have I revealed1540 my cause.7379

21 萬有之主耶和華曰、亞拿突居民、旣謀害爾、使爾不託我名而設教、言必戮爾、故我必罰之、使其壯士飲刃受戮、子女饑餓而死。

21 Therefore3651 thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of the men582 of Anathoth,6068 that seek1245 your life,5315 saying,559 Prophesy5012 not in the name8034 of the LORD,3068 that you die4191 not by our hand:3027

22 併於上節

22 Therefore3651 thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 Behold,2005 I will punish6485 them: the young970 men shall die4191 by the sword;2719 their sons1121 and their daughters1323 shall die4191 by famine:7458

23 屆期降災於亞拿突人、使無孑遺。
