< Isaiah 15 >

1 The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence;
有關摩阿布的神諭:實在,摩阿布的阿爾經過一夜的蹂躪,就滅亡了!實在,摩阿布的克爾經過一夜的摧殘,就滅亡了!
2 He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall wail over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard shorn.
狄朋女兒走上高丘哭泣,摩阿布為乃波和默德巴悲號;眾人的頭都剃光了,眾人的鬍鬚都剪去了;
3 In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall wail, weeping abundantly.
有的在街道上穿著苦衣,有的在屋頂上痛哭;在廣場上的人,人人哀號,流淚痛哭。
4 And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even to Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous to him.
赫市朋和厄肋阿肋號啕,雅哈茲都可聽到他們的哭聲;因此摩阿布的兩腰為之顫動,她的心靈為之恐怖。
5 My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee to Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for they shall go up the ascent of Luhith with weeping for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise a cry of destruction.
我的心為摩阿布發出哀號,她的難民已逃至左哈爾。他們哭著攀上了路希特的山坡,在曷洛納因的道上揚起了失望的哀聲。
6 For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the herb is withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing.
尼默陵的水地成了荒野,青草枯焦了,嫩芽萎縮了,再也見不到青綠。
7 Therefore the abundance they have gained, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.
為此,他們將所有的積蓄和財物,都帶過了「柳樹河。」
8 For the cry hath gone around the borders of Moab; its wailing to Eglaim, and its howling to Beerelim.
因為哀叫聲傳遍了摩阿布四境,她的哭聲已傳到厄革拉因,她的哭聲已達到貝爾厄林。
9 For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land.
狄孟的水已滿了鮮血,我還要加禍於狄孟:為摩阿布的難民和當地的遺民將有一隻獅子。
