旧约 -- 耶利米书(Jeremiah) -- 第44章
44：1 有临到耶利米的话，论及一切住在埃及地的犹大人，就是住在密夺，答比匿，挪弗，巴忒罗境内的犹大人，说，The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land of Egypt， which dwell at Migdol， and at Tahpanhes， and at Noph， and in the country of Pathros， saying，
44：2 万军之耶和华以色列的神如此说，我所降与耶路撒冷和犹大各城的一切灾祸你们都看见了。那些城邑今日荒凉，无人居住。
Thus saith the LORD of hosts， the God of Israel； Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem， and upon all the cities of Judah； and， behold， this day they are a desolation， and no man dwelleth therein，
44：3 这是因居民所行的恶，去烧香事奉别神，就是他们和你们，并你们列祖所不认识的神，惹我发怒。
Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger， in that they went to burn incense， and to serve other gods， whom they knew not， neither they， ye， nor your fathers.
44：4 我从早起来差遣我的仆人众先知去说，你们切不要行我所厌恶这可憎之事。
Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets， rising early and sending them， saying， Oh， do not this abominable thing that I hate.
44：5 他们却不听从，不侧耳而听，不转离恶事，仍向别神烧香。
But they hearkened not， nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness， to burn no incense unto other gods.
44：6 因此，我的怒气和忿怒都倒出来，在犹大城邑中和耶路撒冷的街市上，如火着起，以致都荒废凄凉，正如今日一样。
Wherefore my fury and mine anger was poured forth， and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem； and they are wasted and desolate， as at this day.
44：7 现在耶和华万军之神，以色列的神如此说，你们为何作这大恶自害己命，使你们的男人，妇女，婴孩，和吃奶的都从犹大中剪除，不留一人呢。
Therefore now thus saith the LORD， the God of hosts， the God of Israel； Wherefore commit ye this great evil against your souls， to cut off from you man and woman， child and suckling， out of Judah， to leave you none to remain；
44：8 就是因你们手所作的，在所去寄居的埃及地向别神烧香惹我发怒，使你们被剪除，在天下万国中令人咒诅羞辱。
In that ye provoke me unto wrath with the works of your hands， burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt， whither ye be gone to dwell， that ye might cut yourselves off， and that ye might be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth？
44：9 你们列祖的恶行，犹大列王和他们后妃的恶行，你们自己和你们妻子的恶行，就是在犹大地，耶路撒冷街上所行的，你们都忘了吗。
Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers， and the wickedness of the kings of Judah， and the wickedness of their wives， and your own wickedness， and the wickedness of your wives， which they have committed in the land of Judah， and in the streets of Jerusalem？
44：10 到如今还没有懊悔，没有惧怕，没有遵行我在你们和你们列祖面前所设立的法度律例。
They are not humbled even unto this day， neither have they feared， nor walked in my law， nor in my statutes， that I set before you and before your fathers.
44：11 所以万军之耶和华以色列的神如此说，我必向你们变脸降灾，以致剪除犹大众人。
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts， the God of Israel； Behold， I will set my face against you for evil， and to cut off all Judah.
44：12 那定意进入埃及地，在那里寄居的，就是所剩下的犹大人，我必使他们尽都灭绝，必在埃及地仆倒，必因刀剑饥荒灭绝。从最小的到至大的都必遭刀剑饥荒而死，以致令人辱骂，惊骇，咒诅，羞辱。
And I will take the remnant of Judah， that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn there， and they shall all be consumed， and fall in the land of Egypt； they shall even be consumed by the sword and by the famine： they shall die， from the least even unto the greatest， by the sword and by the famine： and they shall be an execration， and an astonishment， and a curse， and a reproach.
44：13 我怎样用刀剑，饥荒，瘟疫刑罚耶路撒冷，也必照样刑罚那些住在埃及地的犹大人。
For I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt， as I have punished Jerusalem， by the sword， by the famine， and by the pestilence：
44：14 甚至那进入埃及地寄居的，就是所剩下的犹大人，都不得逃脱，也不得存留归回犹大地。他们心中甚想归回居住之地。除了逃脱的以外，一个都不能归回。
So that none of the remnant of Judah， which are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there， shall escape or remain， that they should return into the land of Judah， to the which they have a desire to return to dwell there： for none shall return but such as shall escape.
44：15 那些住在埃及地巴忒罗知道自己妻子向别神烧香的，与旁边站立的众妇女，聚集成群，回答耶利米说，Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto other gods， and all the women that stood by， a great multitude， even all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt， in Pathros， answered Jeremiah， saying，
44：16 论到你奉耶和华的名向我们所说的话，我们必不听从。
As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD， we will not hearken unto thee.
44：17 我们定要成就我们口中所出的一切话，向天后烧香，浇奠祭，按着我们与我们列祖，君王，首领在犹大的城邑中和耶路撒冷的街市上素常所行的一样。因为那时我们吃饱饭，享福乐，并不见灾祸。
But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth， to burn incense unto the queen of heaven， and to pour out drink offerings unto her， as we have done， we， and our fathers， our kings， and our princes， in the cities of Judah， and in the streets of Jerusalem： for then had we plenty of victuals， and were well， and saw no evil.
44：18 自从我们停止向天后烧香，浇奠祭，我们倒缺乏一切，又因刀剑饥荒灭绝。
But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven， and to pour out drink offerings unto her， we have wanted all things， and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
44：19 妇女说，我们向天后烧香，浇奠祭，作天后像的饼供奉她，向她浇奠祭，是外乎我们的丈夫吗。
And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven， and poured out drink offerings unto her， did we make her cakes to worship her， and pour out drink offerings unto her， without our men？
44：20 耶利米对一切那样回答他的男人妇女说，Then Jeremiah said unto all the people， to the men， and to the women， and to all the people which had given him that answer， saying，
44：21 你们与你们列祖，君王，首领，并国内的百姓，在犹大城邑中和耶路撒冷街市上所烧的香，耶和华岂不记念，心中岂不思想吗。
The incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah， and in the streets of Jerusalem， ye， and your fathers， your kings， and your princes， and the people of the land， did not the LORD remember them， and came it not into his mind？
44：22 耶和华因你们所作的恶，所行可憎的事，不能再容忍，所以你们的地荒凉，令人惊骇咒诅，无人居住，正如今日一样。
So that the LORD could no longer bear， because of the evil of your doings， and because of the abominations which ye have committed； therefore is your land a desolation， and an astonishment， and a curse， without an inhabitant， as at this day.
44：23 你们烧香，得罪耶和华，没有听从他的话，没有遵行他的律法，条例，法度，所以你们遭遇这灾祸，正如今日一样。
Because ye have burned incense， and because ye have sinned against the LORD， and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD， nor walked in his law， nor in his statutes， nor in his testimonies； therefore this evil is happened unto you， as at this day.
44：24 耶利米又对众民和众妇女说，你们在埃及地的一切犹大人当听耶和华的话。
Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the people， and to all the women， Hear the word of the LORD， all Judah that are in the land of Egypt：
44：25 万军之耶和华以色列的神如此说，你们和你们的妻都口中说，手里作，说，我们定要偿还所许的愿，向天后烧香，浇奠祭。现在你们只管坚定所许的愿而偿还吧。
Thus saith the LORD of hosts， the God of Israel， saying； Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths， and fulfilled with your hand， saying， We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed， to burn incense to the queen of heaven， and to pour out drink offerings unto her： ye will surely accomplish your vows， and surely perform your vows.
44：26 所以你们住在埃及地的一切犹大人当听耶和华的话。耶和华说，我指着我的大名起誓，在埃及全地，我的名不再被犹大一个人的口称呼说，我指着主永生的耶和华起誓。
Therefore hear ye the word of the LORD， all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt； Behold， I have sworn by my great name， saith the LORD， that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt， saying， The Lord GOD liveth.
44：27 我向他们留意降祸不降福。在埃及地的一切犹大人必因刀剑，饥荒所灭，直到灭尽。
Behold， I will watch over them for evil， and not for good： and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine， until there be an end of them.
44：28 脱离刀剑，从埃及地归回犹大地的人数很少。那进入埃及地要在那里寄居的，就是所剩下的犹大人，必知道是谁的话立得住，是我的话呢。是他们的话呢。
Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah， and all the remnant of Judah， that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there， shall know whose words shall stand， mine， or theirs.
44：29 耶和华说，我在这地方刑罚你们，必有预兆，使你们知道我降祸与你们的话必要立得住。
And this shall be a sign unto you， saith the LORD， that I will punish you in this place， that ye may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil：
44：30 耶和华如此说，我必将埃及王法老合弗拉交在他仇敌和寻索其命的人手中，像我将犹大王西底家交在他仇敌，和寻索其命的巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒手中一样。
Thus saith the LORD； Behold， I will give Pharaohhophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies， and into the hand of them that seek his life； as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon， his enemy， and that sought his life.
