| 50:1 | 耶和华藉先知耶利米论巴比伦和迦勒底人之地所说的话。 The word that the LORD spake against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet. | ||
| 50:2 | 你们要在万国中传扬报告，竖立大旗。要报告，不可隐瞒，说，巴比伦被攻取，彼勒蒙羞，米罗达惊惶。巴比伦的神像都蒙羞。她的偶像都惊惶。 Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces. | ||
| 50:3 | 因有一国从北方上来攻击她，使她的地荒凉，无人居住，连人带牲畜都逃走了。 For out of the north there cometh up a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell therein: they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast. | ||
| 50:4 | 耶和华说，当那日子，那时候，以色列人要和犹大人同来，随走随哭，寻求耶和华他们的神。 In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the LORD their God. | ||
| 50:5 | 他们必访问锡安，又面向这里，说，来吧，你们要与耶和华联合为永远不忘的约。 They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us join ourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten. | ||
| 50:6 | 我的百姓作了迷失的羊，牧人使他们走差路，使他们转到山上。他们从大山走到小山，竟忘了安歇之处。 My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace. | ||
| 50:7 | 凡遇见他们的，就把他们吞灭。敌人说，我们没有罪。因他们得罪那作公义居所的耶和华，就是他们列祖所仰望的耶和华。 All that found them have devoured them: and their adversaries said, We offend not, because they have sinned against the LORD, the habitation of justice, even the LORD, the hope of their fathers. | ||
| 50:8 | 我民哪，你们要从巴比伦中逃走，从迦勒底人之地出去，要像羊群前面走的公山羊。 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he goats before the flocks. | ||
| 50:9 | 因我必激动联合的大国从北方上来攻击巴比伦，他们要摆阵攻击她。她必从那里被攻取。他们的箭好像善射之勇士的箭，一枝也不徒然返回。 For, lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country: and they shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she shall be taken: their arrows shall be as of a mighty expert man; none shall return in vain. | ||
| 50:10 | 迦勒底必成为掠物。凡掳掠她的都必心满意足。这是耶和华说的。 And Chaldea shall be a spoil: all that spoil her shall be satisfied, saith the LORD. | ||
| 50:11 | 抢夺我产业的阿，你们因欢喜快乐，且像踹谷撒欢的母牛犊，又像发嘶声的壮马。 Because ye were glad, because ye rejoiced, O ye destroyers of mine heritage, because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass, and bellow as bulls; | ||
| 50:12 | 你们的母巴比伦就极其抱愧，生你们的必然蒙羞。她要列在诸国之末，成为旷野，旱地，沙漠。 Your mother shall be sore confounded; she that bare you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations shall be a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert. | ||
| 50:13 | 因耶和华的忿怒，必无人居住，要全然荒凉。凡经过巴比伦的要受惊骇，又因她所遭的灾殃嗤笑。 Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues. | ||
| 50:14 | 所有拉弓的，你们要在巴比伦的四围摆阵，射箭攻击她。不要爱惜箭枝，因她得罪了耶和华。 Put yourselves in array against Babylon round about: all ye that bend the bow, shoot at her, spare no arrows: for she hath sinned against the LORD. | ||
| 50:15 | 你们要在她四围呐喊。她已经投降。外郭坍塌了，城墙拆毁了，因为这是耶和华报仇的事。你们要向巴比伦报仇。她怎样待人，也要怎样待她。 Shout against her round about: she hath given her hand: her foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down: for it is the vengeance of the LORD: take vengeance upon her; as she hath done, do unto her. | ||
| 50:16 | 你们要将巴比伦撒种的和收割时拿镰刀的都剪除了。他们各人因怕欺压的刀剑，必归回本族，逃到本土。 Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn every one to his people, and they shall flee every one to his own land. | ||
| 50:17 | 以色列是打散的羊，是被狮子赶出的。首先是亚述王将他吞灭，末后是巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒将他的骨头折断。 Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones. | ||
| 50:18 | 所以万军之耶和华以色列的神如此说，我必罚巴比伦王和他的地，像我从前罚亚述王一样。 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria. | ||
| 50:19 | 我必再领以色列回他的草场，他必在迦密和巴珊吃草，又在以法莲山上和基列境内得以饱足。 And I will bring Israel again to his habitation, and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied upon mount Ephraim and Gilead. | ||
| 50:20 | 耶和华说，当那日子，那时候，虽寻以色列的罪孽，一无所有。虽寻犹大的罪恶，也无所见。因为我所留下的人，我必赦免。 In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve. | ||
| 50:21 | 耶和华说，上去攻击米拉大翁之地，又攻击比割的居民。要追杀灭尽，照我一切所吩咐你的去行。 Go up against the land of Merathaim, even against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod: waste and utterly destroy after them, saith the LORD, and do according to all that I have commanded thee. | ||
| 50:22 | 境内有打仗和大毁灭的响声。 A sound of battle is in the land, and of great destruction. | ||
| 50:23 | 全地的大锤何竟砍断破坏。巴比伦在列国中何竟荒凉。 How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations! | ||
| 50:24 | 巴比伦哪，我为你设下网罗，你不知不觉被缠住。你被寻着，也被捉住。因为你与耶和华争竞。 I have laid a snare for thee, and thou art also taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striven against the LORD. | ||
| 50:25 | 耶和华已经开了武库，拿出他恼恨的兵器。因为主万军之耶和华在迦勒底人之地有当作的事。 The LORD hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: for this is the work of the Lord GOD of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans. | ||
| 50:26 | 你们要从极远的边界来攻击她，开她的仓廪，将她堆如高堆，毁灭净尽，丝毫不留。 Come against her from the utmost border, open her storehouses: cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly: let nothing of her be left. | ||
| 50:27 | 要杀她的一切牛犊，使他们下去遭遇杀戮。他们有祸了，因为追讨他们的日子已经来到。 Slay all her bullocks; let them go down to the slaughter: woe unto them! for their day is come, the time of their visitation. | ||
| 50:28 | 有从巴比伦之地逃避出来的人，在锡安扬声报告耶和华我们的神报仇，就是为他的殿报仇。 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple. | ||
| 50:29 | 招集一切弓箭手来攻击巴比伦。要在巴比伦四围安营，不要容一人逃脱，照着她所作的报应她。她怎样待人，也要怎样待她，因为她向耶和华以色列的圣者发了狂傲。 Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do unto her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel. | ||
| 50:30 | 所以她的少年人必仆倒在街上。当那日，一切兵丁必默默无声。这是耶和华说的。 Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD. | ||
| 50:31 | 主万军之耶和华说，你这狂傲的阿，我与你反对，因为我追讨你的日子已经来到。 Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee. | ||
| 50:32 | 狂傲的必绊跌仆倒，无人扶起。我也必使火在他的城邑中里起来，将他四围所有的尽行烧灭。 And the most proud shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him. | ||
| 50:33 | 万军之耶和华如此说，以色列人和犹大人一同受欺压。凡掳掠他们的都紧紧抓住他们，不肯释放。 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah were oppressed together: and all that took them captives held them fast; they refused to let them go. | ||
| 50:34 | 他们的救赎主大有能力，万军之耶和华是他的名。他必伸清他们的冤，好使全地得平安，并搅扰巴比伦的居民。 Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon. | ||
| 50:35 | 耶和华说，有刀剑临到迦勒底人和巴比伦的居民，并她的首领与智慧人。 A sword is upon the Chaldeans, saith the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men. | ||
| 50:36 | 有刀剑临到矜夸的人，他们就成为愚昧。有刀剑临到她的勇士，他们就惊惶。 A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed. | ||
| 50:37 | 有刀剑临到她的马匹，车辆，和其中杂族的人民。他们必像妇女一样。有刀剑临到她的宝物，就被抢夺。 A sword is upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed. | ||
| 50:38 | 有乾旱临到她的众水，就必乾涸。因为这是有雕刻偶像之地，人因偶像而颠狂。 A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad upon their idols. | ||
| 50:39 | 所以旷野的走兽和豺狼必住在那里，鸵鸟也住在其中，永无人烟，世世代代无人居住。 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation. | ||
| 50:40 | 耶和华说，必无人住在那里，也无人在其中寄居，要像我倾覆所多玛，蛾摩拉，和邻近的城邑一样。 As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein. | ||
| 50:41 | 看哪，有一种民从北方而来，并有一大国和许多君王被激动，从地极来到。 Behold, a people shall come from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth. | ||
| 50:42 | 他们拿弓和枪，性情残忍，不施怜悯。他们的声音像海浪？？訇。巴比伦城（城原文作女子）阿，他们骑马，都摆队伍如上战场的人，要攻击你。 They shall hold the bow and the lance: they are cruel, and will not shew mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, every one put in array, like a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon. | ||
| 50:43 | 巴比伦王听见他们的风声，手就发软，痛苦将他抓住，疼痛彷佛产难的妇人。 The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: anguish took hold of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail. | ||
| 50:44 | 仇敌必像狮子从约旦河边的丛林上来，攻击坚固的居所。转眼之间，我要使他们逃跑，离开这地。谁蒙拣选，我就派谁治理这地。谁能比我呢。谁能给我定规日期呢。有何牧人能在我们面前站立得住呢？ Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan unto the habitation of the strong: but I will make them suddenly run away from her: and who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her? for who is like me? and who will appoint me the time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me? | ||
| 50:45 | 你们要听耶和华攻击巴比伦所说的谋略和他攻击迦勒底人之地所定的旨意。仇敌定要将他们群众微弱的拉去，定要使他们的居所荒凉。 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them. | ||
| 50:46 | 因巴比伦被取的声音，地就震动，人在列邦都听见呼喊的声音。 At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations. | ||
