耶利米書-Jeremiah 第 1 章

1:1便雅憫地亞拿突城的祭司中,希勒家的兒子耶利米的話記在下麵。
The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin,
1:2猶大王亞們的兒子約西亞在位第十三年,耶和華的話臨到耶利米。
To whom the word of Jehovah came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon the king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
1:3從猶大王約西亞的兒子約雅敬在位的日子,直到猶大王約西亞的兒子西底家在位的末年,就是第十一年五月間,耶路撒冷人被擄的時候,耶和華的話也常臨到耶利米。)
It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah the king of Judah, until the captivity of Jerusalem in the fifth month.
1:4耶和華的話臨到我,說:
Now the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
1:5我未將你造在母腹中,我已曉得你;你未出母胎,我已將你分別為聖;我已派你作列國的申言者。
Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; And before you came forth from the womb, I sanctified you. I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.
1:6我就說,主耶和華阿!哎,我不知怎樣說,因為我是年幼的。
Then I said, Alas, Lord Jehovah! Indeed, I do not know how to speak, For I am a youth.
1:7耶和華對我說,你不要說我是年幼的;因為我差遣你到誰那裏去,你都要去;我吩咐你說什麼話,你都要說。
But Jehovah said to me, Do not say, I am a youth; For everywhere I send you, you shall go; And everything I command you, you shall speak.
1:8你不要懼怕他們的麵,因為我與你同在,要拯救你;這是耶和華說的。
Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you, declares Jehovah.
1:9於是耶和華伸手觸我的口;耶和華對我說,我已將我的話放在你口中。
Then Jehovah stretched out His hand and touched my mouth; and Jehovah said to me, Now I have put My words in your mouth.
1:10看哪,我今日派你在列邦列國之上,為要拔出並拆毀,毀壞並傾覆,建造並栽植。
See, I have appointed you this day Over the nations and over the kingdoms To pluck up and to break down, To destroy and to tear down, To build up and to plant.
1:11耶和華的話又臨到我,說,耶利米,你看見什麼?我說,我看見一根杏樹枝。
Then the word of Jehovah came to me, saying, What do you see, Jeremiah? And I said, I see a branch of an almond tree.
1:12耶和華對我說,你看得不錯;因為我留意我的話,使其成就。
And Jehovah said to me, You have seen well, for I am watching over My word to perform it.
1:13耶和華的話第二次臨到我,說,你看見什麼?我說,我看見一個燒開的鍋,從北而傾。
Then the word of Jehovah came to me a second time, saying, What do you see? And I said, I see a boiling pot, and it is facing away from the north.
1:14耶和華對我說,必有災禍從北方發出,臨到這地的一切居民。
And Jehovah said to me, Out of the north evil will be let loose upon all the inhabitants of the land.
1:15耶和華說,我要召北方列國的眾族;他們要來,各安座位在耶路撒冷的城門口,周圍攻擊城牆,又要攻擊猶大的一切城邑。
For I am now calling all the families from the kingdoms of the north, declares Jehovah, and they will come and set each one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem and against all its walls all around and against all the cities of Judah.
1:16至於這民的一切惡,就是離棄我,向別神獻祭,跪拜自己手所造的,我要向他們發出我的判語。
And I will utter My judgment on them concerning all their wickedness by which they have forsaken Me and have offered sacrifices to other gods and have worshipped the works of their own hands.
1:17所以你當束腰,起來將我所吩咐你的一切話告訴他們;不要因他們驚惶,免得我使你在他們麵前驚惶。
You therefore gird up your loins, and rise up and speak to them everything that I command you. Do not be dismayed before them, lest I dismay you in their presence.
1:18我今日使你成為堅城、鐵柱、銅牆,抵擋全地,就是抵擋猶大的君王、首領、祭司、並這地的眾民。
And I am now making you today into a fortified city and into an iron pillar and into bronze walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against its princes, against its priests, and against the people of the land.
1:19他們要攻擊你,卻不能勝過你;因為我與你同在,要拯救你;這是耶和華說的。
And they will fight against you, but they will not prevail against you; for I am with you, declares Jehovah, to deliver you.
