耶利米書

第23章

1 耶和華說：「那些殘害、趕散我草場之羊的牧者［pastors］有禍了。」

2 所以［therefore］耶和華─以色列的神斥責那些牧養他百姓的牧者［pastors］，如此說：「你們趕散我的羊群，並沒有看顧他們；看哪［behold］，我必討你們這行惡的罪。這是耶和華說的。

3 我要將我羊群中所餘剩的，從我趕他們到的各國內招聚出來，領他們歸回本圈；他們也必生養增多［increase］。

4 我必設立照管他們的牧人，牧養他們。他們不再懼怕，不再驚惶，也不缺少［be lacking］；這是耶和華說的。」

5 耶和華說：「看哪［Behold］，日子將到，我要給大衛興起一個公義的苗裔，必有一王掌權［and a King shall reign］，行事亨通［prosper］，在地上施行公平和公義。

6 在他的日子，猶大必得救，以色列也安然居住。他的名必稱為『耶和華─我們的義』。」

7 所以［Therefore］耶和華說：「看哪［behold］，日子將到，人必不再指著那領以色列人從埃及地上來永生的耶和華起誓，

8 卻要指著那領以色列家的後裔從北方和趕他們到的各國中上來、永生的耶和華起誓。他們必住在本地。」

9 我因那些先知心中憂傷［Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets］；我骨頭都發顫；因耶和華和他的聖言，我像醉酒的人，像被酒所勝的人。

10 地滿了行淫的人；因妄自起誓［swearing］，地就悲哀；曠野的美地［pleasant places］都枯乾了，他們所行的道乃是惡的，他們的勇力使得不正。

11 連先知帶祭司都是褻瀆的，就是在我殿中我也看見他們的惡。這是耶和華說的。

12 因此，他們的道路必像黑暗中的滑道［ways］，他們必被追趕，在這路中仆倒；因為當追討之年，我必使災禍臨到他們。這是耶和華說的。

13 我在撒瑪利亞的先知中曾見愚妄；他們奉［in］巴力說預言，使我的百姓以色列走錯了路。

14 我又［also］在耶路撒冷的先知中曾見可怕［horrible］的事；他們犯［commit］姦淫，作事虛妄；他們［they］又堅固惡人的手，甚至無人回頭離開他的惡；他們在我面前都像所多瑪；耶路撒冷的居民都像蛾摩拉。

15 所以大軍之耶和華論到先知如此說：看哪［Behold］，我必將茵蔯給他們吃，又將苦膽水給他們喝；因為褻瀆的事出於耶路撒冷的先知，流行遍地。

16 大軍之耶和華如此說：「這些先知向你們所預言的話，你們不要聽［Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you］；他們使你們成為虛無［make you vain］；他們［they］所說的異象是出於自己的心，不是出於耶和華的口。

17 他們仍［still］對藐視我的人說：『耶和華說：你們必享平安』；他們［they］又對一切按自己妄想［imagination］之心而行的人說：『必沒有災禍臨到你們。』」

18 有誰站在耶和華的會中得以聽見並明白［perceived］他的話呢？有誰留心聽他的話呢？

19 看哪。有耶和華的旋風在烈怒中已經發出［a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury］；是暴烈的旋風，必大大臨到［fall grievously upon］惡人的頭上。

20 耶和華的怒氣必不轉消，直到他心中的意念［thoughts of］成就了。末後的日子你們要全然明白。

21 我沒有打發那些先知，他們竟自奔跑；我沒有對他們說話，他們竟自預言。

22 他們若是站在我的會中，使［and had caused］我的百姓聽我的話，就必［then］使他們回頭離開惡道和他們所行的惡。

23 耶和華說：「我豈為近處的神呢？不也為遠處的神嗎？」

24 耶和華說：「人豈能在隱密處藏身，使我看不見他呢？」耶和華說：「我豈不充滿天地嗎？

25 我已聽見那些先知所說的，就是託我名說的假預言，他們說：『我作了夢，我作了夢。』

26 說假預言的先知這樣存心，要到幾時呢［How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies］？他們是預言本心詭詐的先知［they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart］，

27 他們各人將所作的夢對鄰居述說，想要使我的百姓忘記我的名，正如他們列祖因巴力忘記了［have forgotten］我的名一樣。

28 得夢的先知可以述說那夢；得我話的人可以忠誠［faithfully］講說我的話。糠秕怎能與麥子比較呢？這是耶和華說的。」

29 耶和華說：「我的話豈不像火，又像能打碎磐石的大鎚［hammer］嗎？」

30 耶和華說：「看哪［behold］，那些先知各從鄰居偷竊我的言語，因此我必與他們反對。」

31 耶和華說：「看哪［Behold］，那些先知用舌頭，說是耶和華說的；我必與他們反對。」

32 耶和華說：「看哪［Behold］，那些預言假夢［prophesy false dreams］，又述說這夢，以謊言和輕率［lightness］使我百姓走錯了路的，我必與他們反對。我沒有打發他們，也沒有吩咐他們；因此［therefore］他們與這百姓毫無益處。這是耶和華說的。」

33 「無論是百姓，是先知，是祭司，問你說：『耶和華有甚麼默示呢？』你就對他們說：『甚麼默示啊？耶和華說：我要離棄［forsake］你們。』

34 無論是先知，是祭司，是百姓，說『耶和華的默示』，我必刑罰那人和他的家。

35 你們各人要對鄰居，各人要對兄弟［brother］如此說：『耶和華回答甚麼？』『耶和華說了甚麼呢？』

36 『耶和華的默示』你們不可再提，各人所說的話必作自己的默示［burden］，因為你們謬用永生神、大軍之耶和華─我們神的言語。

37 你們要對先知如此說：『耶和華回答你甚麼？』『耶和華說了甚麼呢？』

38 你們若說『耶和華的默示』，耶和華就如此說：『因你們說「耶和華的默示」這句話，我也打發人到你們那裏去，告訴你們不可說「耶和華的默示」。』

39 所以看哪［behold］，我必全然忘記你們，離棄［forsake］你們和我所賜給你們並你們列祖的城，把你們從我面前趕出去［and cast you out of my presence］；

40 我［I］又必使永遠的凌辱和長久的羞恥臨到你們，是不能忘記的。」

Jeremiah

Chapter 23

1 WOE to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! says the LORD.

2 Therefore thus speaks the LORD God of Israel against the shepherds who feed my people: You have scattered my flock, and have caused them to go astray, and have not visited them; behold, I will punish you according to your evil doings, says the LORD.

3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and I will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.

4 And I will set shepherds over them who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be scattered nor shall they go astray, says the LORD.

5 Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will raise up for David a righteous Heir, and he shall reign over the kingdom with understanding, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.

6 In his days Judah shall be saved and Israel shall dwell securely; and this is the name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

7 Therefore, the days are coming, says the LORD, when it shall never be said again, The LORD lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

8 But, The LORD lives, who brought up and led the house of Israel out of the north country and from all the countries where they had been scattered; and they shall dwell in their own land.

9 My heart is broken within me because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man and like a man who is overcome by wine, because of the presence of the LORD and because of the words of his holiness.

10 For the land is full of adulterers and robbers; because of these men the land mourns and the pastures of the shepherds in the wilderness are dried up, and their yield has been poor, and they did not flourish.

11 For both prophets and priests have become pagans; yea, even in my house have I found their wickedness, says the LORD.

12 Therefore their ways shall be to them as slippery ways in the darkness; they shall be driven on, and fall in them; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their punishment, says the LORD.

13 And I have seen falsehood in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal and caused my people Israel to err.

14 I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem folly; they commit adultery and walk in lies; they strengthen also the hands of their friends, so that no one turns from his evil way; they are all of them to me like Sodom, and its inhabitants like Gomorrah.

15 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets: Behold. I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink bitter water; for from the prophets of Jerusalem paganism has gone forth throughout all the land.

16 Thus says the LORD of hosts: Do not hearken to the words of the false prophets who prophesy to you and mislead you; they tell a vision of the imagination of their own hearts, and not from the mouth of the LORD.

17 They say still to those who provoke me, The LORD has said, You shall have peace; and they say to every one who walks after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you.

18 For who has stood in the counsel of the LORD and has seen him and heard his word? or who has given ear to his word and heard him?

19 Behold, the punishment of the LORD is gone forth in fury, and the punishment will kindle; it shall fall upon the head of the wicked.

20 The wrathful indignation of the LORD shall not turn back until he has executed his devices, and till he has performed the thoughts of his mind; in the latter days you shall discern it perfectly.

21 I have not sent these prophets, yet they have gone forth; I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.

22 But if they had stood in my counsel and had caused my people to hear my words, then they would have turned them from their evil ways and from the evil of their doings.

23 I am the God who is near, says the LORD God, and not a God afar off.

24 If any man should hide himself in secret places, I will see him, says the LORD; behold, heaven and earth are filled with me, says the LORD of hosts.

25 I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed a dream.

26 How long shall there be in the mouth of the false prophets, prophecies of lies? prophecies of the deceit of their own heart?

27 Who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name and served Baal.

28 The prophet who sees a dream, let him tell a dream; but he who has my words, let him speak my words faithfully. Why do you mix chaff with the wheat? says the LORD.

29 Behold, my words issue like a fire, says the LORD, and like a hammer which breaks the rock in pieces.

30 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, who steal my words, every one from his neighbor.

31 Behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, who pervert their tongues, and say, Thus says the LORD.

32 Behold, I am against the prophets who see false dreams, says the LORD, and tell them, and lead my people astray by their lies and their wantonness; yet I did not command them nor send them; so they do not profit this people at all.

33 land when this people, or a prophet or a priest, shall ask you, and say to you, What is the word of the LORD? you shall say to them, This is the word of the LORD: I will utterly uproot you, says the LORD.

34 And as for the prophet or the priest or the people who shall speak the word of the LORD, I will punish that man and his house.

35 Thus shall you say every one to his neighbor, and every one to his brother: What has the LORD answered? and, What has the LORD spoken?

36 And the words of the LORD you shall mention no more; for every man's word shall be to him his prophecy, for you pervert the words of the living God, the LORD of hosts, our God.

37 Thus shall you say to that person: What has the LORD answered you? and, What has the LORD spoken?

38 But if you speak the word of the LORD, therefore, thus says the LORD: Because you have said this word, The words of the LORD, and I have sent you, saying, You shall not say, The words of the LORD;

39 Therefore, behold, I will surely remove you, and I will cast you away, both you and the city that I gave to you and your fathers;

40 And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame which shall not be forgotten.

9 我因那些先知心中憂傷［Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets］；我骨頭都發顫；因耶和華和他的聖言，我像醉酒的人，像被酒所勝的人。	9 My heart is broken within me because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man and like a man who is overcome by wine, because of the presence of the LORD and because of the words of his holiness.

18 有誰站在耶和華的會中得以聽見並明白［perceived］他的話呢？有誰留心聽他的話呢？	18 For who has stood in the counsel of the LORD and has seen him and heard his word? or who has given ear to his word and heard him?
19 看哪。有耶和華的旋風在烈怒中已經發出［a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury］；是暴烈的旋風，必大大臨到［fall grievously upon］惡人的頭上。	19 Behold, the punishment of the LORD is gone forth in fury, and the punishment will kindle; it shall fall upon the head of the wicked.
20 耶和華的怒氣必不轉消，直到他心中的意念［thoughts of］成就了。末後的日子你們要全然明白。	20 The wrathful indignation of the LORD shall not turn back until he has executed his devices, and till he has performed the thoughts of his mind; in the latter days you shall discern it perfectly.

25 我已聽見那些先知所說的，就是託我名說的假預言，他們說：『我作了夢，我作了夢。』	25 I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed a dream.
26 說假預言的先知這樣存心，要到幾時呢［How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies］？他們是預言本心詭詐的先知［they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart］，	26 How long shall there be in the mouth of the false prophets, prophecies of lies? prophecies of the deceit of their own heart?
27 他們各人將所作的夢對鄰居述說，想要使我的百姓忘記我的名，正如他們列祖因巴力忘記了［have forgotten］我的名一樣。	27 Who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name and served Baal.
28 得夢的先知可以述說那夢；得我話的人可以忠誠［faithfully］講說我的話。糠秕怎能與麥子比較呢？這是耶和華說的。」	28 The prophet who sees a dream, let him tell a dream; but he who has my words, let him speak my words faithfully. Why do you mix chaff with the wheat? says the LORD.
29 耶和華說：「我的話豈不像火，又像能打碎磐石的大鎚［hammer］嗎？」	29 Behold, my words issue like a fire, says the LORD, and like a hammer which breaks the rock in pieces.
30 耶和華說：「看哪［behold］，那些先知各從鄰居偷竊我的言語，因此我必與他們反對。」	30 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, who steal my words, every one from his neighbor.
31 耶和華說：「看哪［Behold］，那些先知用舌頭，說是耶和華說的；我必與他們反對。」	31 Behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, who pervert their tongues, and say, Thus says the LORD.
32 耶和華說：「看哪［Behold］，那些預言假夢［prophesy false dreams］，又述說這夢，以謊言和輕率［lightness］使我百姓走錯了路的，我必與他們反對。我沒有打發他們，也沒有吩咐他們；因此［therefore］他們與這百姓毫無益處。這是耶和華說的。」	32 Behold, I am against the prophets who see false dreams, says the LORD, and tell them, and lead my people astray by their lies and their wantonness; yet I did not command them nor send them; so they do not profit this people at all.
33 「無論是百姓，是先知，是祭司，問你說：『耶和華有甚麼默示呢？』你就對他們說：『甚麼默示啊？耶和華說：我要離棄［forsake］你們。』	33 land when this people, or a prophet or a priest, shall ask you, and say to you, What is the word of the LORD? you shall say to them, This is the word of the LORD: I will utterly uproot you, says the LORD.
34 無論是先知，是祭司，是百姓，說『耶和華的默示』，我必刑罰那人和他的家。	34 And as for the prophet or the priest or the people who shall speak the word of the LORD, I will punish that man and his house.
35 你們各人要對鄰居，各人要對兄弟［brother］如此說：『耶和華回答甚麼？』『耶和華說了甚麼呢？』	35 Thus shall you say every one to his neighbor, and every one to his brother: What has the LORD answered? and, What has the LORD spoken?
36 『耶和華的默示』你們不可再提，各人所說的話必作自己的默示［burden］，因為你們謬用永生神、大軍之耶和華─我們神的言語。	36 And the words of the LORD you shall mention no more; for every man's word shall be to him his prophecy, for you pervert the words of the living God, the LORD of hosts, our God.
37 你們要對先知如此說：『耶和華回答你甚麼？』『耶和華說了甚麼呢？』	37 Thus shall you say to that person: What has the LORD answered you? and, What has the LORD spoken?
38 你們若說『耶和華的默示』，耶和華就如此說：『因你們說「耶和華的默示」這句話，我也打發人到你們那裏去，告訴你們不可說「耶和華的默示」。』	38 But if you speak the word of the LORD, therefore, thus says the LORD: Because you have said this word, The words of the LORD, and I have sent you, saying, You shall not say, The words of the LORD;
39 所以看哪［behold］，我必全然忘記你們，離棄［forsake］你們和我所賜給你們並你們列祖的城，把你們從我面前趕出去［and cast you out of my presence］；	39 Therefore, behold, I will surely remove you, and I will cast you away, both you and the city that I gave to you and your fathers;
40 我［I］又必使永遠的凌辱和長久的羞恥臨到你們，是不能忘記的。」	40 And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame which shall not be forgotten.
