Michaeas 2

1 They meditated troubles, and wrought wickedness on their beds, and they put it in execution with the daylight; for they have not lifted up their hands to God.

祸哉，那些在床上图谋罪孽、造作奸恶的！ 天一发亮，因手有能力就行出来了。

2 And they desired fields, and plundered orphans, and oppressed families, and spoiled a man and his house, even a man and his inheritance.

他们贪图田地就占据， 贪图房屋便夺取； 他们欺压人，霸占房屋和产业。

3 Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I devise evils against this family, out of which you shall not lift up your necks, neither shall you walk upright speedily: for the time is evil.

所以耶和华如此说： 我筹划灾祸降与这族； 这祸在你们的颈项上不能解脱； 你们也不能昂首而行， 因为这时势是恶的。

4 In that day shall a parable be taken up against you, and a plaintive lamentation shall be uttered, saying, We are thoroughly miserable: the portion of my people has been measured out with a line, and there was none to hinder him so as to turn him back; your fields have been divided.

到那日，必有人向你们提起悲惨的哀歌， 讥刺说：我们全然败落了！ 耶和华将我们的分转归别人， 何竟使这分离开我们？ 他将我们的田地分给悖逆的人。

5 Therefore you shall have no one to cast a line for the lot.

所以在耶和华的会中， 你必没有人拈阄拉准绳。

6 Weep not with tears in the assembly of the Lord, neither let [any] weep for these things; for he shall not remove the reproaches,

他们说：你们不可说预言； 不可向这些人说预言， 不住地羞辱我们。

7 who says, The house of Jacob has provoked the Spirit of the Lord; are not these his practices? Are not the Lord's words right with him? and have they not proceeded correctly?

雅各家啊，岂可说耶和华的心不忍耐吗？ 这些事是他所行的吗？ 我—耶和华的言语岂不是与行动正直的人有益吗？

8 Even beforetime my people withstood [him] as an enemy against his peace; they have stripped off his skin to remove hope [in] the conflict of war.

然而，近来我的民兴起如仇敌， 从那些安然经过不愿打仗之人身上剥去外衣。

9 The leaders of my people shall be cast forth from their luxurious houses; they are rejected because of their evil practices; draw you near to the everlasting mountains.

你们将我民中的妇人从安乐家中赶出， 又将我的荣耀从她们的小孩子尽行夺去。

10 Arise you, and depart; for this is not your rest because of uncleanness: you have been utterly destroyed;

你们起来去吧！ 这不是你们安息之所； 因为污秽使人毁灭， 而且大大毁灭。

11 you have fled, no one pursuing [you: your] spirit has framed falsehood, it has dropped on you for wine and strong drink. But it shall come to pass, [that] out of the dropping of this people,

若有人心存虚假，用谎言说： 我要向你们预言得清酒和浓酒。 那人就必作这民的先知。

12 Jacob shall be completely gathered with all [his people: ] I will surely receive the remnant of Israel; I will cause them to return together, as sheep in trouble, as a flock in the midst of their fold: they shall rush forth from amongst men through the breach made before them:

雅各家啊，我必要聚集你们， 必要招聚以色列剩下的人， 安置在一处，如波斯拉的羊， 又如草场上的羊群； 因为人数众多就必大大喧哗。

13 they have broken through, and passed the gate, and gone out by it: and their king has gone out before them, and the Lord shall lead them.

开路的在他们前面上去； 他们直闯过城门，从城门出去。 他们的王在前面行； 耶和华引导他们。
