Jeremiah 46
1 Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet on the nations.
上主傳給耶肋米亞先知論及外邦的話。
2 Of Egypt on [the] army of Pharaoh Necho [the] king of Egypt which it was at [the] river of Euphrates at Carchemish which he struck down Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon in [the] year fourth of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah.
關於埃及：對於埃及王法郎乃苛，於猶大王約史的兒子約雅金第四年，在幼發拉的河附近的加克米士，被巴比倫王拿步高擊敗的軍隊：
3 Set in order shield and body shield and draw near for battle.
你們應準備盾牌鎧甲，衝鋒上陣!
4 Harness the horses and mount the warhorses and take your stand with helmets polish the spears put on the armor.
騎士，你們應裝備戰馬，快騎上，戴上盔，磨快槍，披甲出陣!
5 Why? have I seen they [will be] terrified [they will be] turned back backwards and warriors their they will be crushed and flight they will flee and not they will turn back terror [will be] from round about [the] utterance of Yahweh.
怎麼﹖我看見他們驚惶潰退，他們的勇士遭受襲擊，急速奔逃，不敢回顧，竟然恐怖四起﹖──上主的斷語。
6 May not he flee the swift [one] and may not he escape the warrior north-ward on [the] side of [the] river of Euphrates they will stumble and they will fall.
敏捷的不能逃脫，英勇的不能自救，在靠近幼發拉的河的北岸，瓦解覆滅!
7 Who? [is] this [who] like the River he rises like rivers they surge waters his.
那如尼羅，水波起伏如河流，湧上來的是誰﹖
8 Egypt like the River it rises and like rivers they surge waters and it has said I will rise I will cover [the] earth I will destroy a city and [the] inhabitants in it.
埃及如尼羅，水波起伏如河流，湧上來說：「我湧上來淹沒大地，掃滅城市和城中的居民。
9 Go up O horses and drive madly O chariotry so they may go forth the warriors Cush and Put [who] wield a shield and Ludites [who] wield [those who] bend a bow.
戰馬上前，戰車急馳，戰士出陣，持盾的雇士人和普特人，張弓的路丁人!
10 And the day that [belongs] to [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts a day of vengeance to avenge himself from opponents his and it will devour [the] sword and it will be satisfied and it will take its fill from blood their for a sacrifice of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts [will be] in [the] land of [the] north to [the] river of Euphrates.
這一天正是我主萬軍的上主，報復自己仇敵的復仇日，刀劍必要吞噬、飽嘗、痛飲他們的鮮血；在靠近幼發拉的河北岸，我主萬軍的上主必要執行一場大屠殺。
11 Go up Gilead and acquire balm O virgin of [the] daughter of Egypt for vanity (you have multiplied *QK) remedies [is] healing there not for you.
埃及的處女! 你儘管上基肋阿得去拾取香草，只是徒然增添藥材；你已無法治療!
12 They will hear nations shame your and outcry your it will be full the earth for warrior over warrior they will stumble together they will fall both of them.
萬民聞知了你的羞辱，大地充滿了你的哀哭；噫! 勇士衝向勇士，雙方同時倒仆。
13 The word which he spoke Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet of [the] coming of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon to strike [the] land of Egypt.
上主論及巴比倫王拿步高前來攻擊埃及地，對耶肋米亞先知說的話：
14 Declare in Egypt and make a proclamation in Migdol and make a proclamation in Memphis and in Tahpanhes say take your stand and prepare yourself for it will devour [the] sword around you.
你們在埃及宣傳，在米革多耳傳報，在諾夫及塔黑培乃斯傳布說：你起來準備! 刀劍已在你四周撕殺。
15 Why? will he be prostrated mighty [ones] your not he will stand for Yahweh he will push him.
怎麼，阿丕斯逃跑了，你的牛神也站立不住﹖原來上主已將牠推倒。
16 He will multiply [one who] stumbles also he will fall each to neighbor his and they said arise! - so let us return to people our and to [the] land of kindred our because of [the] sword of the oppressor.
你的混合部隊已離心潰退，各向自己的同僚說：起來，回到我們的民族，我們的生身地去，遠避吞殺的刀劍!
17 People will call out there Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt [is] a noise he has let pass by the appointed time.
人應給埃及王法郎起個綽號，叫「時機過後的叫囂。」
18 [by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of the king [is] Yahweh of hosts name his that like Tabor among the mountains and like Carmel at the sea he will come.
我永在──那稱謂萬軍上主的君王的斷語──有一位必要前來，勢如群山中的大博爾，又如海濱的加爾默耳。
19 Baggage of exile make for yourself O inhabitant[s] [the] daughter of Egypt for Memphis a waste it will become and it will be made desolate from not inhabitant.
寄居在埃及的女兒! 請你自備流徙的行裝，因為諾夫將要變為荒野，被火焚燒，再沒有人居住。
20 [is] a heifer Beautifully beautiful Egypt a gadfly from [the] north [is] about to come [is] about to come.
埃及是一頭美麗的小母牛，但是有一隻牛蠅從北方向她撲來。
21 Also hired soldiers its in midst its [are] like calves of [the] stall for also they they will turn they will flee together not they will stand their ground for [the] day of disaster their it will come on them [the] time of punishment their.
她的傭兵在她內雖像肥胖的牛犢，也一同轉身逃遁，不能抵抗，因為他們遭殃的日子，受罰的時期，已來到他們身上。
22 Sound its [is] like snake [which] it goes for with an army they will come and with axes they will come to it like cutters of wood.
她發聲嘶嘶好像蛇行，因為敵人正在率軍前進，好像伐木的樵夫，帶著斧鉞向她衝來：
23 They will cut down forest its [the] utterance of Yahweh that not it will be searched for they will be many more than locust[s] and not [belonged] to them number.
砍伐她的森林──上主的斷語──雖然它稠密得不可侵入，因為他們多於蝗蟲，不可勝數。
24 It will be put to shame [the] daughter of Egypt it will be given in [the] hand of [the] people of [the] north.
埃及女兒，已被交在北方民族手裏，遭受污辱。
25 He says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to visit [judgment] to Amon from Thebes and on Pharaoh and on Egypt and on gods its and on kings its and on Pharaoh and on the [ones who] trust in him.
萬軍的上主，以色列的天主說：「看，我必懲罰諾地的阿孟，法郎和埃及，埃及的神祇和君王，以及信賴法郎的人，
26 And I will give them in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of servants his and after thus it will settle like days of antiquity [the] utterance of Yahweh.
將他們交在圖謀他們性命的巴比倫王拿步高和他臣僕的手中；但是以後，埃及仍如昔日有人居住──上主的斷語。
27 And you may not you fear O servant my Jacob and may not you be dismayed O Israel for here I [am] about to save you from a distant [land] and offspring your from [the] land of captivity their and he will return Jacob and he will be undisturbed and he will be at ease and there not [will be one who] terrifies.
至於你，我的僕人雅各伯，你不用害怕；以色列，你不必驚慌；因為，看，我必從遠方救出你來；從充軍之地，救出你的後裔；雅各伯必將歸來，居享安寧，無所恐懼。
28 You may not you fear O servant my Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh that [am] with you I that I will make complete destruction on all the nations - where I have driven away you there towards and you not I will make complete destruction and I will discipline you to justice and certainly not I will leave unpunished you.
雅各伯，我的僕人! 你不用害怕──上主的斷語──有我與你同在；誠然，對我使你流徙所至的各民族，我要加以毀滅；但是你，我必不毀滅，只依照正義懲罰你，不讓你全然免罰。
