申命記 32
1 諸天哪，側耳，我要說話； 願地也聽我口中的言語。
Attend, O heaven, and I will speak; and let the earth hear the words out of my mouth.
2 我的教訓要淋漓如雨； 我的言語要滴落如露， 如細雨降在嫩草上， 如甘霖降在菜蔬中。
Let my speech be looked for as the rain, and my words come down as dew, as the shower upon the herbage, and as snow upon the grass.
3 我要宣告耶和華的名； 你們要將大德歸與我們的上帝。
For I have called on the name of the Lord: assign you greatness to our God.
4 他是磐石，他的作為完全； 他所行的無不公平， 是誠實無偽的上帝， 又公義，又正直。
[As for God], his works [are] true, and all his ways [are] judgement: God [is] faithful, and there is no unrighteousness [in him]; just and holy [is] the Lord.
5 這乖僻彎曲的世代向他行事邪僻； 有這弊病就不是他的兒女。
They have sinned, not [pleasing] him; spotted children, a froward and perverse generation.
6 愚昧無知的民哪，你們這樣報答耶和華嗎？ 他豈不是你的父、將你買來的嗎？ 他是製造你、建立你的。
Do you thus recompense the Lord? [is the] people thus foolish and unwise? did not he himself your father purchase you, and make you, and form you?
7 你當追想上古之日， 思念歷代之年； 問你的父親，他必指示你； 問你的長者，他必告訴你。
Remember the days of old, consider the years for past ages: ask your father, and he shall relate to you, your elders, and they shall tell you.
8 至高者將地業賜給列邦，將世人分開， 就照以色列人的數目立定萬民的疆界。
When the Most High divided the nations, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of God.
9 耶和華的分本是他的百姓； 他的產業本是雅各。
And his people Jacob became the portion of the Lord, Israel was the line of his inheritance.
10 耶和華遇見他在曠野－ 荒涼野獸吼叫之地， 就環繞他，看顧他， 保護他，如同保護眼中的瞳人。
He maintained him in the wilderness, in burning thirst and a dry land: he led him about and instructed him, and kept him as the apple of an eye.
11 又如鷹攪動巢窩， 在雛鷹以上兩翅搧展， 接取雛鷹，背在兩翼之上。
As an eagle would watch over his brood, and yearns over his young, receives them having spread his wings, and takes them up on his back:
12 這樣，耶和華獨自引導他， 並無外邦神與他同在。
the Lord alone led them, there was no strange god with them.
13 耶和華使他乘駕地的高處， 得吃田間的土產； 又使他從磐石中咂蜜， 從堅石中吸油；
He brought them up on the strength of the land; he fed them with the fruits of the fields; they sucked honey out of the rock, and oil out of the solid rock.
14 也吃牛的奶油， 羊的奶，羊羔的脂油， 巴珊所出的公綿羊和山羊， 與上好的麥子， 也喝葡萄汁釀的酒。
Butter of cows, and milk of sheep, with the fat of lambs and rams, of calves and kids, with fat of kidneys of wheat; and he drank wine, the blood of the grape.
15 但耶書崙漸漸肥胖，粗壯， 光潤，踢跳，奔跑， 便離棄造他的上帝， 輕看救他的磐石；
So Jacob ate and was filled, and the beloved one kicked; he grew fat, he became thick and broad: then he forsook the God that made him, and departed from God his Saviour.
16 敬拜別神，觸動上帝的憤恨， 行可憎惡的事，惹了他的怒氣。
They provoked me to anger with strange gods; with their abominations they bitterly angered me.
17 所祭祀的鬼魔並非真神， 乃是素不認識的神， 是近來新興的， 是你列祖所不畏懼的。
They sacrificed to devils, and not to God; to gods whom they knew not: new and fresh [gods] came in, whom their fathers knew not.
18 你輕忽生你的磐石， 忘記產你的上帝。
You have forsaken God that begot you, and forgotten God who feeds you.
19 耶和華看見他的兒女惹動他， 就厭惡他們，說：
And the Lord saw, and was jealous; and was provoked by the anger of his sons and daughters,
20 我要向他們掩面， 看他們的結局如何。 他們本是極乖僻的族類， 心中無誠實的兒女。
and said, I will turn away my face from them, and will show what shall happen to them in the last days; for it is a perverse generation, sons in whom is no faith.
21 他們以那「不算為神」的觸動我的憤恨， 以虛無的神惹了我的怒氣。 我也要以那「不成子民」的觸動他們的憤恨， 以愚昧的國民惹了他們的怒氣。
They have provoked me to jealousy with [that which is] not God, they have exasperated me with their idols; and I will provoke them to jealousy with them that are no nation, I will anger them with a nation void of understanding.
For a fire has been kindled out of my wrath, it shall burn to hell below; it shall devour the land, and the fruits of it; it shall set on fire the foundations of the mountains. (Sheol h7585)
23 我要將禍患堆在他們身上， 把我的箭向他們射盡。
I will gather evils upon them, and will fight with my weapons against them.
24 他們必因飢餓消瘦， 被炎熱苦毒吞滅。 我要打發野獸用牙齒咬他們， 並土中腹行的，用毒氣害他們。
[They shall be] consumed with hunger and the devouring of birds, and there shall be irremediable destruction: I will send forth against them the teeth of wild beasts, with the rage of [serpents] creeping on the ground.
25 外頭有刀劍，內室有驚恐， 使人喪亡，使少男、童女、 吃奶的、白髮的，盡都滅絕。
Without, the sword shall bereave them of children, and terror [shall issue] out of the secret chambers; the young man shall perish with the virgin, the suckling with him who has grown old.
26 我說，我必將他們分散遠方， 使他們的名號從人間除滅。
I said, I will scatter them, and I will cause their memorial to cease from amongst men.
27 惟恐仇敵惹動我， 只怕敵人錯看，說：是我們手的能力， 並非耶和華所行的。
Were it not for the wrath of the enemy, lest they should live long, lest their enemies should combine against them; lest they should say, Our own high arm, and not the Lord, has done all these things.
28 因為以色列民毫無計謀， 心中沒有聰明。
It is a nation that has lost counsel, neither is there understanding in them.
29 惟願他們有智慧， 能明白這事，肯思念他們的結局。
They had not sense to understand: let them reserve these things against the time to come.
30 若不是他們的磐石賣了他們， 若不是耶和華交出他們， 一人焉能追趕他們千人？ 二人焉能使萬人逃跑呢？
How should one pursue a thousand, and two rout tens of thousands, if God had not sold them, and the Lord delivered them up?
31 據我們的仇敵自己斷定， 他們的磐石不如我們的磐石。
For their gods are not as our God, but our enemies [are] void of understanding.
32 他們的葡萄樹是所多瑪的葡萄樹， 蛾摩拉田園所生的； 他們的葡萄是毒葡萄， 全掛都是苦的。
For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom, and their vine-branch of Gomorrha: their grape [is] a grape of gall, their cluster [is] one of bitterness.
33 他們的酒是大蛇的毒氣， 是虺蛇殘害的惡毒。
Their wine [is] the rage of serpents, and the incurable rage of asps.
34 這不都是積蓄在我這裏， 封鎖在我府庫中嗎？
Behold! are not these things stored up by me, and sealed amongst my treasures?
35 他們失腳的時候，伸冤報應在我； 因他們遭災的日子近了； 那要臨在他們身上的必速速來到。
In the day of vengeance I will recompense, whenever their foot shall be tripped up; for the day of their destruction [is] near to them, and the judgements at hand are close upon you.
36 耶和華見他百姓毫無能力， 無論困住的、自由的都沒有剩下， 就必為他們伸冤， 為他的僕人後悔。
For the Lord shall judge his people, and shall be comforted over his servants; for he saw that they were utterly weakened, and failed in the hostile invasion, and were become feeble:
37 他必說：他們的神， 他們所投靠的磐石，
and the Lord said, Where are their gods on whom they trusted?
38 就是向來吃他們祭牲的脂油， 喝他們奠祭之酒的，在哪裏呢？ 他可以興起幫助你們， 護衛你們。
the fat of whose sacrifices you ate, and you drank the wine of their drink-offerings? let them arise and help you, and be your protectors.
39 你們如今要知道： 我，惟有我是上帝； 在我以外並無別神。 我使人死，我使人活； 我損傷，我也醫治， 並無人能從我手中救出來。
Behold, behold that I am [he], and there is no god beside me: I kill, and I will make to live: I will strike, and I will heal; and there is none who shall deliver out of my hands.
40 我向天舉手說： 我憑我的永生起誓：
For I will lift up my hand to heaven, and swear by my right hand, and I will say, I live for ever.
41 我若磨我閃亮的刀， 手掌審判之權， 就必報復我的敵人， 報應恨我的人。
For I will sharpen my sword like lightning, and my hand shall take hold of judgement; and I will render judgement to my enemies, and will recompense them that hate me.
42 我要使我的箭飲血飲醉， 就是被殺被擄之人的血。 我的刀要吃肉， 乃是仇敵中首領之頭的肉。
I will make my weapons drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, [it shall glut itself] with the blood of the wounded, and from the captivity of the heads of [their] enemies that rule over them.
43 你們外邦人當與主的百姓一同歡呼； 因他要伸他僕人流血的冤， 報應他的敵人， 潔淨他的地，救贖他的百姓。
Rejoice, you heavens, with him, and let all the angels of God worship him; rejoice you Gentiles, with his people, and let all the sons of God strengthen themselves in him; for he will avenge the blood of his sons, and he will render vengeance, and recompense justice to his enemies, and will reward them that hate him; and the Lord shall purge the land of his people.
44 摩西和嫩的兒子約書亞去將這歌的一切話說給百姓聽。
And Moses wrote this song in that day, and taught it to the children of Israel; and Moses went in and spoke all the words of this law in the ears of the people, he and Joshua the [son] of Naue.
45 摩西向以色列眾人說完了這一切的話，
And Moses finished speaking to all Israel.
46 又說：「我今日所警教你們的，你們都要放在心上；要吩咐你們的子孫謹守遵行這律法上的話。
And he said to them, Take heed with your heart to all these words, which I testify to you this day, which you shall command your sons, to observe and do all the words of this law.
47 因為這不是虛空、與你們無關的事，乃是你們的生命；在你們過約旦河要得為業的地上必因這事日子得以長久。」
For this [is] no vain word to you; for it [is] your life, and because of this word you shall live long upon the land, into which you go over Jordan to inherit it.
48 當日，耶和華吩咐摩西說：
And the Lord spoke to Moses in this day, saying,
49 「你上這亞巴琳山中的尼波山去，在摩押地與耶利哥相對，觀看我所要賜給以色列人為業的迦南地。
Go up to the mount Abarim, this mountain Nabau which is in the land of Moab over against Jericho, and behold the land of Chanaan, which I give to the sons of Israel:
50 你必死在你所登的山上，歸你列祖去，像你哥哥亞倫死在何珥山上，歸他的列祖一樣。
and die in the mount whither you go up, and be added to your people; as Aaron your brother died in mount Or, and was added to his people.
51 因為你們在尋的曠野，加低斯的米利巴水，在以色列人中沒有尊我為聖，得罪了我。
Because you disobeyed my word amongst the children of Israel, at the waters of strife of Cades in the wilderness of Sin; because you sanctified me not amongst the sons of Israel.
52 我所賜給以色列人的地，你可以遠遠地觀看，卻不得進去。」
You shall see the land before [you], but you shall not enter into it.
