旧约 -- 耶利米书(Jeremiah) -- 第 14 章 ( 本篇共有 52 章 )  14:1 耶和华论到乾旱之灾的话临到耶利米,

The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah concerning the dearth.

14:2 犹大悲哀,城门衰败。众人披上黑衣坐在地上。耶路撒冷的哀声上达。

Judah mourneth, and the gates thereof languish; they are black unto the ground; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.

14:3 他们的贵胄打发家僮打水。他们来到水池,见没有水,就拿着空器皿,蒙羞惭愧,抱头而回。

And their nobles have sent their little ones to the waters: they came to the pits, and found no water; they returned with their vessels empty; they were ashamed and confounded, and covered their heads.

14:4 耕地的也蒙羞抱头。因为无雨降在地上,地都乾裂。

Because the ground is chapt, for there was no rain in the earth, the plowmen were ashamed, they covered their heads.

14:5 田野的母鹿生下小鹿,就撇弃,因为无草。

Yea, the hind also calved in the field, and forsook it, because there was no grass.

14:6 野驴站在净光的高处,喘气好像野狗。因为无草,眼目失明。

And the wild asses did stand in the high places, they snuffed up the wind like dragons; their eyes did fail, because there was no grass.

14:7 耶和华阿,我们的罪孽虽然作见证告我们,还求你为你名的缘故行事。我们本是多次背道,得罪了你。

O LORD, though our iniquities testify against us, do thou it for thy name's sake: for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against thee.

14:8 以色列所盼望,在患难时作他救主的阿,你为何在这地像寄居的,又像行路的只住一宵呢。

O the hope of Israel, the saviour thereof in time of trouble, why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry for a night?

14:9 你为何像受惊的人,像不能救人的勇士呢。耶和华阿,你仍在我们中间。我们也称为你名下的人,求你不要离开我们。

Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied, as a mighty man that cannot save? yet thou, O LORD, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.

14:10 耶和华对这百姓如此说,这百姓喜爱妄行(原文作飘流),不禁止脚步,所以耶和华不悦纳他们。现今要记念他们的罪孽,追讨他们的罪恶。

Thus saith the LORD unto this people, Thus have they loved to wander, they have not refrained their feet, therefore the LORD doth not accept them; he will now remember their iniquity, and visit their sins.

14:11 耶和华又对我说,不要为这百姓祈祷求好处。

Then said the LORD unto me, Pray not for this people for their good.

14:12 他们禁食的时候,我不听他们的呼求。他们献燔祭和素祭,我也不悦纳。我却要用刀剑,饥荒,瘟疫灭绝他们。

When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.

14:13 我就说,唉。主耶和华阿,那些先知常对他们说,你们必不看见刀剑,也不遭遇饥荒。耶和华要在这地方赐你们长久的平安。

Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.

14:14 耶和华对我说,那些先知托我的名说假预言,我并没有打发他们,没有吩咐他们,也没有对他们说话。他们向你们预言的,乃是虚假的异象和占卜,并虚无的事,以及本心的诡诈。

Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.

14:15 所以耶和华如此说,论到托我名说预言的那些先知,我并没有打发他们。他们还说这地不能有刀剑饥荒,其实那些先知必被刀剑饥荒灭绝。

Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.

14:16 听他们说预言的百姓必因饥荒刀剑抛在耶路撒冷的街道上,无人葬埋。他们连妻子带儿女,都是如此。我必将他们的恶倒在他们身上(或作我必使他们罪恶的报应临到他们身上)。

And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.

14:17 你要将这话对他们说,愿我眼泪汪汪,昼夜不息,因为我百姓(原文作民的处女)受了裂口破坏的大伤。

Therefore thou shalt say this word unto them; Let mine eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease: for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous blow.

14:18 我若出往田间,就见有被刀杀的。我若进入城内,就见有因饥荒患病的。连先知带祭司在国中往来,也是毫无知识(或作不知怎样才好)。

If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine! yea, both the prophet and the priest go about into a land that they know not.

14:19 你全然弃掉犹大吗。你心厌恶锡安吗。为何击打我们,以致无法医治呢。我们指望平安,却得不着好处。指望痊愈,不料,受了惊惶。

Hast thou utterly rejected Judah? hath thy soul lothed Zion? why hast thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? we looked for peace, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble!

14:20 耶和华阿,我们承认自己的罪恶,和我们列祖的罪孽,因我们得罪了你。

We acknowledge, O LORD, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers: for we have sinned against thee.

14:21 求你为你名的缘故,不厌恶我们,不辱没你荣耀的宝座。求你追念,不要背了与我们所立的约。

Do not abhor us, for thy name's sake, do not disgrace the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant with us.

14:22 外邦人虚无的神中有能降雨的吗。天能自降甘霖吗。耶和华我们的神阿,能如此的不是你吗。所以,我们仍要等候你,因为这一切都是你所造的。

Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? art not thou he, O LORD our God? therefore we will wait upon thee: for thou hast made all these things.
