Lamentations 1
1 See her seated by herself, the town which was full of people! She who was great among the nations has become like a widow! She who was a princess among the countries has come under the yoke of forced work!
先前满有人民的城， 现在何竟独坐！ 先前在列国中为大的， 现在竟如寡妇； 先前在诸省中为王后的， 现在成为进贡的。
2 She is sorrowing bitterly in the night, and her face is wet with weeping; among all her lovers she has no comforter: all her friends have been false to her, they have become her haters.
她夜间痛哭，泪流满腮； 在一切所亲爱的中间没有一个安慰她的。 她的朋友都以诡诈待她， 成为她的仇敌。
3 Judah has been taken away as a prisoner because of trouble and hard work; her living-place is among the nations, there is no rest for her: all her attackers have overtaken her in a narrow place.
犹大因遭遇苦难， 又因多服劳苦就迁到外邦。 她住在列国中，寻不着安息； 追逼她的都在狭窄之地将她追上。
4 The ways of Zion are sad, because no one comes to the holy meeting; all her doorways are made waste, her priests are breathing out sorrow: her virgins are troubled, and it is bitter for her.
锡安的路径因无人来守圣节就悲伤； 她的城门凄凉； 她的祭司叹息； 她的处女受艰难，自己也愁苦。
5 Those who are against her have become the head, everything goes well for her haters; for the Lord has sent sorrow on her because of the great number of her sins: her young children have gone away as prisoners before the attacker.
她的敌人为首； 她的仇敌亨通； 因耶和华为她许多的罪过使她受苦； 她的孩童被敌人掳去。
6 And all her glory has gone from the daughter of Zion: her rulers have become like harts with no place for food, and they have gone in flight without strength before the attacker.
锡安城的威荣全都失去。 她的首领像找不着草场的鹿； 在追赶的人前无力行走。
7 Jerusalem keeps in mind, in the days of her sorrow and of her wanderings, all the desired things which were hers in days gone by; when her people came into the power of her hater and she had no helper, her attackers saw their desire effected on her and made sport of her destruction.
耶路撒冷在困苦窘迫之时， 就追想古时一切的乐境。 她百姓落在敌人手中，无人救济； 敌人看见，就因她的荒凉嗤笑。
8 Great is the sin of Jerusalem; for this cause she has become an unclean thing: all those who gave her honour are looking down on her, because they have seen her shame: now truly, breathing out grief, she is turned back.
耶路撒冷大大犯罪， 所以成为不洁之物； 素来尊敬她的，见她赤露就都藐视她； 她自己也叹息退后。
9 In her skirts were her unclean ways; she gave no thought to her end; and her fall has been a wonder; she has no comforter: see her sorrow, O Lord; for the attacker is lifted up.
她的污秽是在衣襟上； 她不思想自己的结局， 所以非常地败落， 无人安慰她。 她说：耶和华啊，求你看我的苦难， 因为仇敌夸大。
10 The hand of her hater is stretched out over all her desired things; for she has seen that the nations have come into her holy place, about whom you gave orders that they were not to come into the meeting of your people.
敌人伸手，夺取她的美物； 她眼见外邦人进入她的圣所— 论这外邦人，你曾吩咐不可入你的会中。
11 Breathing out grief all her people are looking for bread; they have given their desired things for food to give them life: see, O Lord, and take note; for she has become a thing of shame.
她的民都叹息，寻求食物； 他们用美物换粮食，要救性命。 他们说：耶和华啊，求你观看， 因为我甚是卑贱。
12 Come to me, all you who go by! Keep your eyes on me, and see if there is any pain like the pain of my wound, which the Lord has sent on me in the day of his burning wrath.
你们一切过路的人哪，这事你们不介意吗？ 你们要观看： 有像这临到我的痛苦没有— 就是耶和华在他发烈怒的日子使我所受的苦？
13 From on high he has sent fire into my bones, and it has overcome them: his net is stretched out for my feet, I am turned back by him; he has made me waste and feeble all the day.
他从高天使火进入我的骨头， 克制了我； 他铺下网罗，绊我的脚， 使我转回； 他使我终日凄凉发昏。
14 A watch is kept on my sins; they are joined together by his hand, they have come on to my neck; he has made my strength give way: the Lord has given me up into the hands of those against whom I have no power.
我罪过的轭是他手所绑的， 犹如轭绳缚在我颈项上； 他使我的力量衰败。 主将我交在我所不能敌挡的人手中。
15 The Lord has made sport of all my men of war in me, he has got men together against me to send destruction on my young men: the virgin daughter of Judah has been crushed like grapes under the feet of the Lord.
主轻弃我中间的一切勇士， 招聚多人攻击我， 要压碎我的少年人。 主将犹大居民踹下， 像在酒榨中一样。
16 For these things I am weeping; my eye is streaming with water; because the comforter who might give me new life is far from me: my children are made waste, because the hater is strong.
我因这些事哭泣； 我眼泪汪汪； 因为那当安慰我、救我性命的， 离我甚远。 我的儿女孤苦， 因为仇敌得了胜。
17 Zion's hands are outstretched; she has no comforter; the Lord has given orders to the attackers of Jacob round about him: Jerusalem has become like an unclean thing among them.
锡安举手，无人安慰。 耶和华论雅各已经出令， 使四围的人作他仇敌； 耶路撒冷在他们中间像不洁之物。
18 The Lord is upright; for I have gone against his orders: give ear, now, all you peoples, and see my pain, my virgins and my young men have gone away as prisoners.
耶和华是公义的！ 他这样待我，是因我违背他的命令。 众民哪，请听我的话， 看我的痛苦； 我的处女和少年人都被掳去。
19 I sent for my lovers, but they were false to me: my priests and my responsible men were breathing their last breath in the town, while they were looking for food to give them new life.
我招呼我所亲爱的， 他们却愚弄我。 我的祭司和长老正寻求食物、救性命的时候， 就在城中绝气。
20 See, O Lord, for I am in trouble; the inmost parts of my body are deeply moved; my heart is turned in me; for I have been uncontrolled: outside the children are put to the sword, and in the house there is death.
耶和华啊，求你观看， 因为我在急难中。 我心肠扰乱； 我心在我里面翻转， 因我大大悖逆。 在外，刀剑使人丧子； 在家，犹如死亡。
21 Give ear to the voice of my grief; I have no comforter; all my haters have news of my troubles, they are glad because you have done it: let the day of fate come when they will be like me.
听见我叹息的有人； 安慰我的却无人！ 我的仇敌都听见我所遭的患难； 因你做这事，他们都喜乐。 你必使你报告的日子来到， 他们就像我一样。
22 Let all their evil-doing come before you; do to them as you have done to me for all my sins: for loud is the sound of my grief, and the strength of my heart is gone.
愿他们的恶行都呈在你面前； 你怎样因我的一切罪过待我， 求你照样待他们； 因我叹息甚多，心中发昏。
