Jeremiah 48

1 Concerning Moab, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Woe to Nebo, for it will be devastated. Kiriathaim will be captured and disgraced; the fortress will be shattered and dismantled.

1 关于摩押，以色列的上帝——万军之耶和华说： “尼波大祸临头了！ 它必被毁灭； 基列亭必蒙羞沦陷， 堡垒必蒙羞被毁。

2 There is no longer praise for Moab; in Heshbon they devise evil against her: ‘Come, let us cut her off from nationhood.’ You too, O people of Madmen, will be silenced; the sword will pursue you.

2 摩押不再受称赞， 敌人在希实本图谋害她，说， ‘来吧！我们铲除这个国家。’ 玛得缅啊，你也将变得死寂无声， 刀剑必追杀你。

3 A voice cries out from Horonaim: ‘Devastation and great destruction!’

3 “从何罗念传来呼喊声， ‘荒凉了！毁灭了！’

4 Moab will be shattered; her little ones will cry out.

4 摩押灭亡了， 她的孩童放声哀哭。

5 For on the ascent to Luhith they weep bitterly as they go, and on the descent to Horonaim cries of distress resound over the destruction:

5 摩押人痛哭着走上鲁希坡， 他们在何罗念的下坡听见悲惨的哀号。

6 ‘Flee! Run for your lives! Become like a juniper in the desert.’

6 逃命吧！像灌木一样藏到旷野去吧！

7 Because you trust in your works and treasures, you too will be captured, and Chemosh will go into exile with his priests and officials.

7 摩押啊，你要被攻占， 因为你倚仗自己的成就和财富。 你的神明基抹及供奉它的祭司和官长都要被掳去。

8 The destroyer will move against every city, and not one town will escape. The valley will also be ruined, and the high plain will be destroyed, as the LORD has said.

8 毁灭者必攻击每一座城邑， 无一幸免； 山谷遭践踏， 平原被毁坏， 正如耶和华所说的。

9 Put salt on Moab, for she will be laid waste; her cities will become desolate, with no one to dwell in them.

9 “给摩押翅膀让她飞走吧 ， 因为她的城邑将沦为废墟， 杳无人迹。

10 Cursed is the one who is remiss in doing the work of the LORD, and cursed is he who withholds his sword from bloodshed.

10 不殷勤地为耶和华做工， 不挥刀斩杀摩押人的必受咒诅。

11 Moab has been at ease from youth, settled like wine on its dregs; he has not been poured from vessel to vessel or gone into exile. So his flavor has remained the same, and his aroma is unchanged.

11 “摩押自幼常享安逸， 从未被掳到别处， 好像沉淀的酒没有被从这缸倒到那缸， 味道依旧，香气未变。

12 Therefore behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will send to him wanderers, who will pour him out. They will empty his vessels and shatter his jars.

12 “不过，看啊，时候将到，我要派倒酒的人去把她倒出来，倒空酒缸，把缸打碎。这是耶和华说的。

13 Then Moab will be ashamed of Chemosh, just as the house of Israel was ashamed when they trusted in Bethel.

13 摩押人必因他们的神明基抹而羞愧，就像以色列人因信靠伯特利的神像而羞愧一样。

14 How can you say, ‘We are warriors, mighty men ready for battle’?

14 “摩押人啊， 你们怎能自称为骁勇善战的英雄呢？

15 Moab has been destroyed and its towns have been invaded; the best of its young men have gone down in the slaughter, declares the King, whose name is the LORD of Hosts.

15 摩押要灭亡了， 她的城邑要被摧毁， 她最勇敢的青年将被杀戮。 这是名叫万军之耶和华的君王说的。

16 Moab’s calamity is at hand, and his affliction is rushing swiftly.

16 摩押快要被毁灭了， 她的灾难就要来临。

17 Mourn for him, all you who surround him, everyone who knows his name; tell how the mighty scepter is shattered—the glorious staff!

17 她的近邻和知道她名望的人啊， 你们都要为她哀悼， ‘那强大、辉煌的权势竟然崩溃了！’

18 Come down from your glory; sit on parched ground, O daughter dwelling in Dibon, for the destroyer of Moab has come against you; he has destroyed your fortresses.

18 “底本的居民啊， 你们要从荣耀的位子上下来， 坐在干旱的地上， 因为毁灭摩押的要来攻击你们， 摧毁你们的堡垒。

19 Stand by the road and watch, O dweller of Aroer! Ask the man fleeing or the woman escaping, ‘What has happened?’

19 亚罗珥的居民啊！ 你们要站在路旁观望， 询问逃难的男女究竟发生了什么事。

20 Moab is put to shame, for it has been shattered. Wail and cry out! Declare by the Arnon that Moab is destroyed.

20 你们会得知摩押沦陷了， 她羞愧难当。 你们哀伤痛哭吧！ 你们要在亚嫩河边宣告， ‘摩押被毁灭了！’

21 Judgment has come upon the high plain—upon Holon, Jahzah, and Mephaath,

21 “审判降临在平原上的何伦、雅杂、米法押、

22 upon Dibon, Nebo, and Beth-diblathaim,

22 底本、尼波、伯·低比拉太音、

23 upon Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, and Beth-meon,

23 基列亭、伯·迦末、伯·米恩、

24 upon Kerioth, Bozrah, and all the towns of Moab, those far and near.

24 加略、波斯拉等摩押远近各地的城邑。

25 The horn of Moab has been cut off, and his arm is broken,” declares the LORD.

25 摩押的权势被粉碎了，她的力量被摧毁了。这是耶和华说的。

26 “Make him drunk, because he has magnified himself against the LORD; so Moab will wallow in his own vomit, and he will also become a laughingstock.

26 “你们要灌醉她，因为她藐视耶和华。她必在自己的呕吐物中打滚，被人耻笑。

27 Was not Israel your object of ridicule? Was he ever found among thieves? For whenever you speak of him you shake your head.

27 摩押啊，你不是曾经嘲笑以色列吗？以色列难道是强盗吗？你每次谈到她总是不屑地摇头。

28 Abandon the towns and settle among the rocks, O dwellers of Moab! Be like a dove that nests at the mouth of a cave.

28 “摩押人啊， 你们要离开城邑，住到岩洞里， 像鸽子在岩缝里筑巢一样。

29 We have heard of Moab’s pomposity, his exceeding pride and conceit, his proud arrogance and haughtiness of heart.

29 我们听说摩押傲气冲天， 狂妄自大、心中高傲。

30 I know his insolence,” declares the LORD, “but it is futile. His boasting is as empty as his deeds.

30 我知道摩押的狂傲不过是外强中干， 她的夸耀不过是虚张声势。 这是耶和华说的。

31 Therefore I will wail for Moab; I will cry out for all of Moab; I will moan for the men of Kir-heres.

31 因此，我要为她哀号， 为摩押人痛哭， 为吉珥·哈列设人悲伤。

32 I will weep for you, O vine of Sibmah, more than I weep for Jazer. Your tendrils have extended to the sea; they reach even to Jazer. The destroyer has descended on your summer fruit and grape harvest.

32 西比玛的葡萄树啊， 我为你比为雅谢人哭得更悲痛！ 你的枝条虽然延伸到大海， 一直到雅谢， 但毁灭者已在蹂躏你夏日的果子和葡萄！

33 Joy and gladness are removed from the orchard and from the fields of Moab. I have stopped the flow of wine from the presses; no one treads them with shouts of joy; their shouts are not for joy.

33 摩押的沃土上再没有欢喜快乐的声音。 我使榨酒池不出酒， 再没有踩踏葡萄的欢呼声， 欢呼被呐喊取代。

34 There is a cry from Heshbon to Elealeh; they raise their voices to Jahaz, from Zoar to Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah; for even the waters of Nimrim have dried up.

34 “哀哭声从希实本传到以利亚利和雅杂，又从琐珥传到何罗念和伊基拉·施利施亚，因为连宁林的水也干涸了。”

35 In Moab, declares the LORD, I will bring an end to those who make offerings on the high places and burn incense to their gods.

35 耶和华说：“我要灭绝摩押那些在丘坛献祭和向他们神明烧香的人。

36 Therefore My heart laments like a flute for Moab; it laments like a flute for the men of Kir-heres, because the wealth they acquired has perished.

36 我的心为摩押悲鸣，好像凄凉的箫声；我的心为吉珥·哈列设人悲鸣，好像凄凉的箫声。他们的一切财富都消失了。

37 For every head is shaved and every beard is clipped; on every hand is a gash, and around every waist is sackcloth.

37 他们都悲哀地剃去发须，割伤双手，腰束麻布。

38 On all the rooftops of Moab and in the public squares, everyone is mourning; for I have shattered Moab like an unwanted jar,” declares the LORD.

38 在摩押境内的屋顶和街头巷尾，哀声处处可闻，因为我已把摩押打得粉碎，好像打碎没人要的器皿。这是耶和华说的。

39 “How shattered it is! How they wail! How Moab has turned his back in shame! Moab has become an object of ridicule and horror to all those around him.”

39 摩押破碎不堪！她嚎啕痛哭，羞愧难当，令四围的人嗤笑、惊惧。”

40 For this is what the LORD says: “Behold, an eagle swoops down and spreads his wings against Moab.

40 耶和华说： “看啊，敌人必像展翅疾飞的大鹰一样来攻击摩押。

41 Kirioth has been taken, and the strongholds seized. In that day the heart of Moab’s warriors will be like the heart of a woman in labor.

41 他们要攻取城池，占领堡垒。 那时，摩押的勇士像临盆的妇人一样心惊胆战。

42 Moab will be destroyed as a nation because he vaunted himself against the LORD.

42 摩押必被摧毁，最后亡国， 因为她藐视耶和华。

43 Terror and pit and snare await you, O dweller of Moab,” declares the LORD.

43 摩押人啊！ 你们要充满恐惧， 陷入深坑和网罗。 这是耶和华说的。

44 “Whoever flees the panic will fall into the pit, and whoever climbs from the pit will be caught in the snare. For I will bring upon Moab the year of their punishment,” declares the LORD.

44 逃过惊恐的必落入深坑， 爬出深坑的必陷入网罗， 因为我惩罚摩押的时候到了。 这是耶和华说的。

45 “Those who flee will stand helpless in Heshbon’s shadow, because fire has gone forth from Heshbon and a flame from within Sihon. It devours the foreheads of Moab and the skulls of the sons of tumult.

45 “在希实本的荫影下， 逃难的人无助地站着， 因为希实本烈焰熊熊， 西宏的城火光冲天， 烧毁了摩押和其中的叛逆之人。

46 Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh have perished; for your sons have been taken into exile and your daughters have gone into captivity.

46 摩押人啊，你们有祸了！ 拜基抹神明的人灭亡了！ 你们的儿女都被掳去了。

47 Yet in the latter days I will restore Moab from captivity,” declares the LORD. Here ends the judgment on Moab.

47 但将来，我要使摩押被掳的人返乡。 这是耶和华说的。” 对摩押的审判到此为止。
