Warning of Jerusalem’s Fall

1This is what the LORD says: “Go down to the house of the king of Judah and there speak this word, 2and say, ‘Hear the word of the LORD, O king of Judah, who sits on David’s throne, you and your servants and your people who enter these gates. 3‘This is what the LORD says: “Do justice and righteousness, and save one who has been robbed from the power of his oppressor. And do not mistreat or do violence to the stranger, the orphan, or the widow; and do not shed innocent blood in this place. 4“For if you will indeed perform this instruction, then kings will enter the gates of this house, sitting in David’s place on his throne, riding in chariots and on horses, the king himself, his servants, and his people. 5“But if you will not obey these words, I swear by Myself,” declares the LORD, “that this house will become a place of ruins.”’” 6For this is what the LORD says concerning the house of the king of Judah:
“You are like Gilead to Me,
Like the summit of Lebanon;
Yet most assuredly I will make you a wilderness,
Cities that are not inhabited.
7“For I will set apart destroyers against you,
Each with his weapons;
And they will cut down your choicest cedars
And throw them on the fire.
1耶和華如此說:「你下到猶大王的宮中,在那裏說這話,2說:『坐大衛寶座的猶大王啊,你和你的臣僕,並進入城門的百姓,都當聽耶和華的話。3耶和華如此說:你們要施行公平和公義,拯救被搶奪的脫離欺壓人的手,不可虧負寄居的和孤兒寡婦,不可以強暴待他們,在這地方也不可流無辜人的血。4你們若認真行這事,就必有坐大衛寶座的君王和他的臣僕百姓,或坐車或騎馬,從這城的各門進入。5你們若不聽這些話,耶和華說:我指著自己起誓,這城必變為荒場。』6耶和華論到猶大王的家如此說:我看你如基列,如黎巴嫩頂;然而,我必使你變為曠野,為無人居住的城邑。7我要預備行毀滅的人,各拿器械攻擊你;他們要砍下你佳美的香柏樹,扔在火中。
8“Many nations will pass by this city; and they will say to one another, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this great city?’ 9“Then they will answer, ‘Because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD their God and bowed down to other gods and served them.’”
8「許多國的民要經過這城,各人對鄰舍說:『耶和華為何向這大城如此行呢?』9他們必回答說:『是因離棄了耶和華─他們神的約,事奉敬拜別神。』」
10Do not weep for the dead or mourn for him,
But weep deeply for the one who goes away;
For he will never return
Or see his native land.
10不要為死人哭號;不要為他悲傷,卻要為離家出外的人大大哭號;因為他不得再回來,也不得再見他的本國。
11For this is what the LORD says regarding Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who became king in the place of his father Josiah, who went out from this place: “He will never return there; 12but in the place where they took him into exile, there he will die and he will not see this land again.
11因為耶和華論到從這地方出去的猶大王約西亞的兒子沙龍(在列王下二十三章三十節名約哈斯),就是接續他父親約西亞作王的,這樣說:「他必不得再回到這裏來,12卻要死在被擄去的地方,必不得再見這地。」

Messages about the Kings

13“Woe to him who builds his house without righteousness,
And his upstairs rooms without justice,
Who uses his neighbor’s services without pay
And does not give him his wages,
14Who says, ‘I will build myself a large house
With spacious upstairs rooms,
And cut out its windows,
Paneling it with cedar and painting it bright red.’
15“Do you become a king because you are competing in cedar?
Did your father not eat and drink
And do justice and righteousness?
Then it was well for him.
16“He pled the cause of the afflicted and the poor,
Then it was well.
Is that not what it means to know Me?”
Declares the LORD.
17“But your eyes and your heart
Are intent only upon your own dishonest gain,
And on shedding innocent blood,
And on practicing oppression and extortion.”
13那行不義蓋房、行不公造樓、白白使用人的手工不給工價的有禍了!14他說:我要為自己蓋廣大的房、寬敞的樓,為自己開窗戶。這樓房的護牆板是香柏木的,樓房是丹色油漆的。15難道你作王是在乎造香柏木樓房爭勝嗎?你的父親豈不是也吃也喝、也施行公平和公義嗎?那時他得了福樂。16他為困苦和窮乏人伸冤,那時就得了福樂。認識我不在乎此嗎?這是耶和華說的。17惟有你的眼和你的心專顧貪婪,流無辜人的血,行欺壓和強暴。
18Therefore this is what the LORD says regarding Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah:
“They will not mourn for him:
‘Oh, my brother!’ or, ‘Oh, sister!’
They will not mourn for him:
‘Oh, for the master!’ or, ‘Oh, for his splendor!’
19“He will be buried with a donkey’s burial,
Dragged off and thrown out beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
20“Go up to Lebanon and cry out,
And raise your voice in Bashan;
Cry out also from Abarim,
For all your lovers have been crushed.
21“I spoke to you in your prosperity;
But you said, ‘I will not listen!’
This has been your way from your youth,
That you have not obeyed My voice.
22“The wind will sweep away all your shepherds,
And your lovers will go into captivity;
Then you will certainly be ashamed and humiliated
Because of all your wickedness.
23“You who live in Lebanon,
Nested in the cedars,
How you will groan when sharp pains come on you,
Pain like a woman in childbirth!
18所以,耶和華論到猶大王約西亞的兒子約雅敬如此說:人必不為他舉哀說:哀哉!我的哥哥;或說:哀哉!我的姊姊;也不為他舉哀說:哀哉!我的主;或說:哀哉!我主的榮華。19他被埋葬,好像埋驢一樣,要拉出去扔在耶路撒冷的城門之外。20你要上黎巴嫩哀號,在巴珊揚聲,從亞巴琳哀號,因為你所親愛的都毀滅了。21你興盛的時候,我對你說話;你卻說:我不聽。你自幼年以來總是這樣,不聽從我的話。22你的牧人要被風吞吃,你所親愛的必被擄去;那時你必因你一切的惡抱愧蒙羞。23你這住黎巴嫩、在香柏樹上搭窩的,有痛苦臨到你,好像疼痛臨到產難的婦人,那時你何等可憐!
24“As I live,” declares the LORD, “even if Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were a signet ring on My right hand, yet I would pull you off; 25and I will hand you over to those who are seeking your life, yes, to those of whom you are frightened, that is, to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and the Chaldeans. 26“I will hurl you and your mother who gave birth to you into another country where you were not born, and there you will die. 27“But as for the land to which they long to return, they will not return to it. 28“Is this man Coniah a despised, shattered jar?
Or is he an undesirable vessel?
Why have he and his descendants been hurled out
And cast into a land that they had not known?
29“O land, land, land,
Hear the word of the LORD!
30“This is what the LORD says:
‘Write this man down as childless,
A man who will not prosper in his days;
For no man among his descendants will prosper
Sitting on the throne of David
Or ruling again in Judah.’”
24耶和華說:「猶大王約雅敬的兒子哥尼雅(又名耶哥尼雅;下同),雖是我右手上帶印的戒指,我憑我的永生起誓,也必將你從其上摘下來,25並且我必將你交給尋索你命的人和你所懼怕的人手中,就是巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒和迦勒底人的手中。26我也必將你和生你的母親趕到別國,並不是你們生的地方;你們必死在那裏,27但心中甚想歸回之地,必不得歸回。」28哥尼雅這人是被輕看、破壞的器皿嗎?是無人喜愛的器皿嗎?他和他的後裔為何被趕到不認識之地呢?29地啊,地啊,地啊,當聽耶和華的話!30耶和華如此說:要寫明這人算為無子,是平生不得亨通的;因為他後裔中再無一人得亨通,能坐在大衛的寶座上治理猶大。
