旧约 -- 耶利米书(Jeremiah) -- 第11章
11：1 耶和华的话临到耶利米说，The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD， saying，
11：2 当听这约的话，告诉犹大人和耶路撒冷的居民，Hear ye the words of this covenant， and speak unto the men of Judah， and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem；
11：3 对他们说，耶和华以色列的神如此说，不听从这约之话的人必受咒诅。
And say thou unto them， Thus saith the LORD God of Israel； Cursed be the man that obeyeth not the words of this covenant，
11：4 这约是我将你们列祖从埃及地领出来，脱离铁炉的那日所吩咐他们的，说，你们要听从我的话，照我一切所吩咐的去行。这样，你们就作我的子民，我也作你们的神。
Which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt， from the iron furnace， saying， Obey my voice， and do them， according to all which I command you： so shall ye be my people， and I will be your God：
11：5 我好坚定向你们列祖所起的誓，给他们流奶与蜜之地，正如今日一样。我就回答说，耶和华阿，阿们。
That I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers， to give them a land flowing with milk and honey， as it is this day. Then answered I， and said， So be it， O LORD.
11：6 耶和华对我说，你要在犹大城邑中和耶路撒冷街市上，宣告这一切话说，你们当听从遵行这约的话。
Then the LORD said unto me， Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah， and in the streets of Jerusalem， saying， Hear ye the words of this covenant， and do them.
11：7 因为我将你们列祖从埃及地领出来的那日，直到今日，都是从早起来，切切诰诫他们说，你们当听从我的话。
For I earnestly protested unto your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt， even unto this day， rising early and protesting， saying， Obey my voice.
11：8 他们却不听从，不侧耳而听，竟随从自己顽梗的恶心去行。所以我使这约中一切咒诅的话临到他们身上。这约是我吩咐他们行的，他们却不去行。
Yet they obeyed not， nor inclined their ear， but walked every one in the imagination of their evil heart： therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant， which I commanded them to do： but they did them not.
11：9 耶和华对我说，在犹大人和耶路撒冷居民中有同谋背叛的事。
And the LORD said unto me， A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah， and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
11：10 他们转去效法他们的先祖，不肯听我的话，犯罪作孽，又随从别神，事奉它。以色列家和犹大家背了我与他们列祖所立的约。
They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers， which refused to hear my words； and they went after other gods to serve them： the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.
11：11 所以耶和华如此说，我必使灾祸临到他们，是他们不能逃脱的。他们必向我哀求，我却不听。
Therefore thus saith the LORD， Behold， I will bring evil upon them， which they shall not be able to escape； and though they shall cry unto me， I will not hearken unto them.
11：12 那时，犹大城邑的人和耶路撒冷的居民要去哀求他们烧香所供奉的神。只是遭难的时候，这些神毫不拯救他们。
Then shall the cities of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem go， and cry unto the gods unto whom they offer incense： but they shall not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
11：13 犹大阿，你神的数目与你城的数目相等。你为那可耻的巴力所筑烧香的坛也与耶路撒冷街道的数目相等。
For according to the number of thy cities were thy gods， O Judah； and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to that shameful thing， even altars to burn incense unto Baal.
11：14 所以你不要为这百姓祈祷，不要为他们呼求祷告。因为他们遭难向我哀求的时候，我必不应允。
Therefore pray not thou for this people， neither lift up a cry or prayer for them： for I will not hear them in the time that they cry unto me for their trouble.
11：15 我所亲爱的，既行许多淫乱，圣肉也离了你，你在我殿中作什么呢。你作恶就喜乐。
What hath my beloved to do in mine house， seeing she hath wrought lewdness with many， and the holy flesh is passed from thee？ when thou doest evil， then thou rejoicest.
11：16 从前耶和华给你起名叫青橄榄树，又华美又结好果子。如今他用哄囔之声，点火在其上，枝子也被折断。
The LORD called thy name， A green olive tree， fair， and of goodly fruit： with the noise of a great tumult he hath kindled fire upon it， and the branches of it are broken.
11：17 原来栽培你的万军之耶和华已经说，要降祸攻击你，是因以色列家和犹大家行恶，向巴力烧香，惹我发怒，是自作自受。
For the LORD of hosts， that planted thee， hath pronounced evil against thee， for the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah， which they have done against themselves to provoke me to anger in offering incense unto Baal.
11：18 耶和华指示我，我就知道。你将他们所行的给我指明。
And the LORD hath given me knowledge of it， and I know it： then thou shewedst me their doings.
11：19 我却像柔顺的羊羔被牵到宰杀之地。我并不知道他们设计谋害我，说，我们把树连果子都灭了吧。将他从活人之地剪除，使他的名不再被纪念。
But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter； and I knew not that they had devised devices against me， saying， Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof， and let us cut him off from the land of the living， that his name may be no more remembered.
11：20 按公义判断，察验人肺腑心肠的万军之耶和华阿，我却要见你在他们身上报仇，因我将我的案件向你禀明了。
But， O LORD of hosts， that judgest righteously， that triest the reins and the heart， let me see thy vengeance on them： for unto thee have I revealed my cause.
11：21 所以，耶和华论到寻索你命的亚拿突人如此说，他们说，你不要奉耶和华的名说预言，免得你死在我们手中。
Therefore thus saith the LORD of the men of Anathoth， that seek thy life， saying， Prophesy not in the name of the LORD， that thou die not by our hand：
11：22 所以万军之耶和华如此说，看哪，我必刑罚他们。他们的少年人必被刀剑杀死，他们的儿女必因饥荒灭亡，Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts， Behold， I will punish them： the young men shall die by the sword； their sons and their daughters shall die by famine：
11：23 并且没有馀剩的人留给他们。因为在追讨之年，我必使灾祸临到亚拿突人。
And there shall be no remnant of them： for I will bring evil upon the men of Anathoth， even the year of their visitation.
