耶利米書

第19章

1 耶和華告我曰、當取陶器、招民長、祭司長咸集。

2 偕往東門之外、便欣嫩谷、以我所言播告於衆云、

3 猶大王耶路撒冷民、宜聽耶和華之言、萬有之主以色列族之上帝耶和華云、我必降災於斯土、聽之者必震其耳。

4 彼違逆予、凟我聖所、在此焚香、以敬他上帝、他上帝之聖名、自厥祖以迄子孫、更逮猶大國王、未嘗聞也、亦殺無辜、流血遍染此所。

5 彼事巴力、築崇丘以奉之、焚子女以獻之、我所嚴禁、我所痛疾。

6 耶和華又曰、時日將至、人必不復以陀法便欣嫩谷名斯土、而以殺戮稱之。

7 蓋在斯土、猶大及耶路撒冷人之謀、我必敗之、使陷於敵手、殞於鋒刃、其尸駭爲飛鳥走獸所食。

8 我必使此邑荒蕪、人發怨聲、過斯土者見此鞠凶、則驚愕歔欷不已。

9 爰遇羣敵、環而攻之、勢甚危迫、欲殲其命、子女友朋之肉、民相殘食、我使之然。

10 斯言旣竟、當毀陶器、使同行者目擊焉、

11 告衆曰、萬有之主耶和華曰、我必毀此邑民、猶毀陶器、不能復完、死者旣衆、無地可埋、咸葬於陀法、

12 耶和華又曰、我必視此邑民、有如陀法、

13 猶大王宮殿、耶路撒冷廬舍、必視爲污衊、無異陀法、蓋在樓巔、人焚香以奉天象、酒以灌奠、崇敬他上帝、〇

14 耶利米奉耶和華命往陀法、述此預言旣竟、則詣殿院、立而告衆、曰、

15 萬有之主以色列族之上帝耶和華曰、斯邑及四周之民、強項不從我言、故所言之災、必降其身。

Jeremiah

Chapter 19

1 THUS said the LORD to me, Go and buy a potters earthen jug, and take with you some of the elders of the people and some of the elderly priests;

2 And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom which is by the entrance of the east gate, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell you,

3 And say, Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem; Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, such that whosoever hears of it his ears shall tingle.

4 Because they have forsaken me and have polluted this place and have burned incense in it to other gods whom neither they nor their fathers nor the kings of Judah have known; and have filled this place with the blood of the innocents;

5 They have built also the high places of Baal to burn their sons with fire as burnt offerings to Baal, which I did not command; nor did I speak of it, neither came it into my mind;

6 Therefore, behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when this place shall no more be called Taphat, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter.

7 And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies and by the hand of those who seek their lives; and their corpses will I give as food for the fowls of the air and for the wild beasts of the earth.

8 And I will make this city desolate and a hissing; so that every one who passes by it shall be horrified and hiss because of all its catastrophes.

9 And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his neighbors in the siege and in the affliction with which their enemies and those who seek their lives shall inflict upon them.

10 Then you shall break a pot in the sight of the men who go with you,

11 And say to them, Thus says the LORD of hosts: Even so will I break this people and this city, as this potter's vessel is broken, so that it cannot be mended again; and they shall bury the dead in Taphat because of the lack of burial space.

12 Thus will I do to this place and to its inhabitants, says the LORD, and even make this city like Taphat;

13 And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah shall be defiled like the place of Taphat; and likewise all the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense to all the host of heaven and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.

14 Then Jeremiah came from Taphat, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD'S house, and said to all the people,

15 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all its towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks that they might not hear my words.

1 耶和華告我曰、當取陶器、招民長、祭司長咸集。

1 THUS said the LORD to me, Go and buy a potters earthen jug, and take with you some of the elders of the people and some of the elderly priests;

2 偕往東門之外、便欣嫩谷、以我所言播告於衆云、

2 And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom which is by the entrance of the east gate, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell you,

3 猶大王耶路撒冷民、宜聽耶和華之言、萬有之主以色列族之上帝耶和華云、我必降災於斯土、聽之者必震其耳。

3 And say, Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem; Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, such that whosoever hears of it his ears shall tingle.

4 彼違逆予、凟我聖所、在此焚香、以敬他上帝、他上帝之聖名、自厥祖以迄子孫、更逮猶大國王、未嘗聞也、亦殺無辜、流血遍染此所。

4 Because they have forsaken me and have polluted this place and have burned incense in it to other gods whom neither they nor their fathers nor the kings of Judah have known; and have filled this place with the blood of the innocents;

5 彼事巴力、築崇丘以奉之、焚子女以獻之、我所嚴禁、我所痛疾。

5 They have built also the high places of Baal to burn their sons with fire as burnt offerings to Baal, which I did not command; nor did I speak of it, neither came it into my mind;

6 耶和華又曰、時日將至、人必不復以陀法便欣嫩谷名斯土、而以殺戮稱之。

6 Therefore, behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when this place shall no more be called Taphat, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter.

7 蓋在斯土、猶大及耶路撒冷人之謀、我必敗之、使陷於敵手、殞於鋒刃、其尸駭爲飛鳥走獸所食。

7 And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies and by the hand of those who seek their lives; and their corpses will I give as food for the fowls of the air and for the wild beasts of the earth.

8 我必使此邑荒蕪、人發怨聲、過斯土者見此鞠凶、則驚愕歔欷不已。

8 And I will make this city desolate and a hissing; so that every one who passes by it shall be horrified and hiss because of all its catastrophes.

9 爰遇羣敵、環而攻之、勢甚危迫、欲殲其命、子女友朋之肉、民相殘食、我使之然。

9 And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his neighbors in the siege and in the affliction with which their enemies and those who seek their lives shall inflict upon them.

10 斯言旣竟、當毀陶器、使同行者目擊焉、

10 Then you shall break a pot in the sight of the men who go with you,

11 告衆曰、萬有之主耶和華曰、我必毀此邑民、猶毀陶器、不能復完、死者旣衆、無地可埋、咸葬於陀法、

11 And say to them, Thus says the LORD of hosts: Even so will I break this people and this city, as this potter's vessel is broken, so that it cannot be mended again; and they shall bury the dead in Taphat because of the lack of burial space.

12 耶和華又曰、我必視此邑民、有如陀法、

12 Thus will I do to this place and to its inhabitants, says the LORD, and even make this city like Taphat;

13 猶大王宮殿、耶路撒冷廬舍、必視爲污衊、無異陀法、蓋在樓巔、人焚香以奉天象、酒以灌奠、崇敬他上帝、〇

13 And the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah shall be defiled like the place of Taphat; and likewise all the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense to all the host of heaven and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.

14 耶利米奉耶和華命往陀法、述此預言旣竟、則詣殿院、立而告衆、曰、

14 Then Jeremiah came from Taphat, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD'S house, and said to all the people,

15 萬有之主以色列族之上帝耶和華曰、斯邑及四周之民、強項不從我言、故所言之災、必降其身。

15 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all its towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks that they might not hear my words.
