< Jeremiah 20 >

1 And when Pashhur son of Immer, the priest, who also was deputy-overseer in the house of Yahweh, heard that Jeremiah had prophesied these things,
祭司音麦的儿子巴施户珥作耶和华殿的总管,听见耶利米预言这些事,
2 then Pashhur smote Jeremiah the prophet, —and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of Yahweh.
他就打先知耶利米,用耶和华殿里便雅悯高门内的枷,将他枷在那里。
3 And it came to pass on the morrow, when Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks, —that Jeremiah said unto him—Not Pashhur, hath Yahweh called thy name, But Magor-missaviv["Terror-round-about"].
次日,巴施户珥将耶利米开枷释放。于是耶利米对他说:“耶和华不是叫你的名为巴施户珥,乃是叫你玛歌珥·米撒毕,
4 For, Thus, saith Yahweh—Behold me! making thee a ["magor" i. e. a] terror to thyself and to all who love thee, and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, thine own eyes also, beholding, And all Judah, will I deliver into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will carry them captive to Babylon and smite them with the sword.
因耶和华如此说:‘我必使你自觉惊吓,你也必使众朋友惊吓;他们必倒在仇敌的刀下,你也必亲眼看见;我必将犹大人全交在巴比伦王的手中,他要将他们掳到巴比伦去,也要用刀将他们杀戮。
5 And I will deliver up—All the wealth of this city, and All her labour, and All her precious things, —And all the treasures of the kings of Judah, will I deliver up into the hands of their enemies, and they will make of them a prey, and take them, and carry them into Babylon.
并且我要将这城中的一切货财和劳碌得来的,并一切珍宝,以及犹大君王所有的宝物,都交在他们仇敌的手中;仇敌要当作掠物带到巴比伦去。
6 And, thou, Pashhur and all who are dwelling in thy house, shall go into captivity, —Yea into Babylon, shalt thou enter And there, shalt thou die And there, shalt thou be buried Thou and all who love thee, to whom thou hast prophesied falsely.
你这巴施户珥和一切住在你家中的人都必被掳去;你和你的众朋友,就是你向他们说假预言的,都必到巴比伦去,要死在那里,葬在那里。’”
7 Thou didst persuade me, O Yahweh and I was persuaded, Thou didst lay firm hold on me and didst prevail, —I am become a mockery, all the day, Every one, is laughing at me.
耶和华啊,你曾劝导我, 我也听了你的劝导。 你比我有力量,且胜了我。 我终日成为笑话, 人人都戏弄我。
8 For, as often as I speak, I make outcry, Violence and wasting, I proclaim, —Yea the word of Yahweh hath become to me a reproach and derision all the day
我每逢讲论的时候,就发出哀声, 我喊叫说:有强暴和毁灭! 因为耶和华的话终日成了我的凌辱、讥刺。
9 Therefore I say—I will not mention him Neither will I speak any more in his name, But then it becometh in my heart as a fire that burneth, Shut up in my bones, —And I am weary of restraint and cannot refrain.
我若说:我不再提耶和华, 也不再奉他的名讲论, 我便心里觉得 似乎有烧着的火闭塞在我骨中, 我就含忍不住,不能自禁。
10 Because I have heard the whispering of many—"A terror round about!" Tell ye [say they], that we may tell of him, All the men I am wont to salute do watch for my halting, —Peradventure he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail over him, and take our vengeance upon him.
我听见了许多人的谗谤, 四围都是惊吓; 就是我知己的朋友也都窥探我, 愿我跌倒,说: 告他吧,我们也要告他! 或者他被引诱, 我们就能胜他, 在他身上报仇。
11 But, Yahweh, is with me, as a mighty one striking terror, For this cause, shall my persecutors stumble and not prevail, —They have turned very pale, For they have not prospered, Confusion age-abiding, it shall not be forgotten!
然而,耶和华与我同在, 好像甚可怕的勇士。 因此,逼迫我的必都绊跌, 不能得胜; 他们必大大蒙羞, 就是受永不忘记的羞辱, 因为他们行事没有智慧。
12 But O Yahweh of hosts—Testing the righteous Beholding the affections and the heart, —Let me see thine avenging upon them, For unto thee, have I laid bare my cause.
试验义人、察看人肺腑心肠的万军之耶和华啊, 求你容我见你在他们身上报仇, 因我将我的案件向你禀明了。
13 Sing ye to Yahweh! Praise ye Yahweh! For he hath delivered the soul of the needy, out of the hand of evildoers.
你们要向耶和华唱歌; 赞美耶和华! 因他救了穷人的性命脱离恶人的手。
14 Accursed, be the day on which I was born, —The day when my mother bare me, let it not be blessed!
愿我生的那日受咒诅; 愿我母亲产我的那日不蒙福!
15 Accursed, be the man who carried tidings to my father saying, There is born to thee a man-child!
给我父亲报信说“你得了儿子”, 使我父亲甚欢喜的, 愿那人受咒诅。
16 Making him very glad: Yea let that man be—as the cities which Yahweh overthrew and repented not, —And let him hear An outcry in the morning, and A war-shout at broad noon!
愿那人像耶和华所倾覆而不后悔的城邑; 愿他早晨听见哀声, 晌午听见呐喊;
17 Because I was not slain from the womb, —Nor did my mother become my grave, Nor was her womb great for ever!
因他在我未出胎的时候不杀我, 使我母亲成了我的坟墓, 胎就时常重大。
18 Wherefore was it—That from the womb, I came forth, to see labour and pain; and That in shame should my days be consumed!
我为何出胎见劳碌愁苦, 使我的年日因羞愧消灭呢?
