# 耶-Jer 21 ## 耶21:1 耶和华的话临到耶利米。那时，西底家王打发玛基雅的儿子巴施户珥和玛西雅的儿子祭司西番雅，去见耶利米，说： Jer 21:1 “This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, when King Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur the son of Malchiah and Zephaniah the priest, the son of Maaseiah, saying,” ## 耶21:2 “请你为我们求问耶和华，因为巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒来攻击我们，或者耶和华照他一切奇妙的作为待我们，使巴比伦王离开我们上去。” Jer 21:2 “Inquire of the LORD for us, for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon is making war against us. Perhaps the LORD will deal with us according to all his wonderful deeds and will make him withdraw from us.” ## 耶21:3 耶利米对他们说：“你们当对西底家这样说： Jer 21:3 Then Jeremiah said to them: ## 耶21:4 ‘耶和华以色列的神如此说：我要使你们手中的兵器，就是你们在城外与巴比伦王和围困你们的迦勒底人打仗的兵器，翻转过来，又要使这些都聚集在这城中。 Jer 21:4 “Thus you shall say to Zedekiah, ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands and with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and against the Chaldeans who are besieging you outside the walls. And I will bring them together into the midst of this city.” ## 耶21:5 并且我要在怒气、忿怒和大恼恨中，用伸出来的手，并大能的膀臂，亲自攻击你们。 Jer 21:5 “I myself will fight against you with outstretched hand and strong arm, in anger and in fury and in great wrath.” ## 耶21:6 又要击打这城的居民，连人带牲畜都必遭遇大瘟疫死亡。 Jer 21:6 “And I will strike down the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast. They shall die of a great pestilence.” ## 耶21:7 以后我要将犹大王西底家和他的臣仆百姓，就是在城内，从瘟疫、刀剑、饥荒中剩下的人，都交在巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒的手中和他们仇敌，并寻索其命的人手中。巴比伦王必用刀击杀他们，不顾惜，不可怜，不怜悯。这是耶和华说的。’ Jer 21:7 “Afterward, declares the LORD, I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his servants and the people in this city who survive the pestilence, sword, and famine into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of their enemies, into the hand of those who seek their lives. He shall strike them down with the edge of the sword. He shall not pity them or spare them or have compassion.’” ## 耶21:8 “你要对这百姓说：‘耶和华如此说：看哪！我将生命的路和死亡的路，摆在你们面前。 Jer 21:8 “And to this people you shall say: ‘Thus says the LORD: Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.” ## 耶21:9 住在这城里的，必遭刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫而死；但出去归降围困你们迦勒底人的，必得存活，要以自己的命为掠物。 Jer 21:9 “He who stays in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence, but he who goes out and surrenders to the Chaldeans who are besieging you shall live and shall have his life as a prize of war.” ## 耶21:10 耶和华说，我向这城变脸，降祸不降福，这城必交在巴比伦王的手中，他必用火焚烧。’ Jer 21:10 “For I have set my face against this city for harm and not for good, declares the LORD: it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.’” ## 耶21:11 “至于犹大王的家，你们当听耶和华的话； Jer 21:11 “And to the house of the king of Judah say, ‘Hear the word of the LORD,” ## 耶21:12 大卫家啊！耶和华如此说：‘你们每早晨要施行公平，拯救被抢夺的脱离欺压人的手，恐怕我的忿怒，因你们的恶行发作，如火着起，甚至无人能以熄灭。 Jer 21:12 “O house of David! Thus says the LORD: “‘Execute justice in the morning, and deliver from the hand of the oppressor him who has been robbed, lest my wrath go forth like fire, and burn with none to quench it, because of your evil deeds.’” ## 耶21:13 耶和华说，住山谷和平原磐石上的居民，你们说：“谁能下来攻击我们，谁能进入我们的住处呢？”看哪！我与你们为敌。 Jer 21:13 “Behold, I am against you, O inhabitant of the valley, O rock of the plain, declares the LORD; you who say, ‘Who shall come down against us, or who shall enter our habitations?’” ## 耶21:14 耶和华又说，我必按你们作事的结果刑罚你们，我也必使火在耶路撒冷的林中着起，将她四围所有的尽行烧灭。’” Jer 21:14 “I will punish you according to the fruit of your deeds, declares the LORD; I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all that is around her.”
