Jeremiah 耶利米书10

（单词翻译）

10Hear what the Lord says to you, O house of Israel.
2This is what the Lord says: "Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by signs in the sky, though the nations are terrified by them.
3For the customs of the peoples are worthless; they cut a tree out of the forest, and a craftsman¹ shapes it with his chisel².
4They adorn³ it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so it will not totter⁴.
5Like a scarecrow in a melon patch, their idols⁵ cannot speak; they must be carried because they cannot walk. Do not fear them; they can do no harm nor can they do any good."
6No one is like you, O Lord ; you are great, and your name is mighty⁶ in power.
7Who should not revere⁷ you, O King of the nations? This is your due. Among all the wise men of the nations and in all their kingdoms, there is no one like you.
8They are all senseless and foolish; they are taught by worthless wooden idols.
9Hammered silver is brought from Tarshish and gold from Uphaz. What the craftsman and goldsmith have made is then dressed in blue and purple- all made by skilled workers.
10But the Lord is the true God; he is the living God, the eternal King. When he is angry, the earth trembles; the nations cannot endure his wrath⁸.
11"Tell them this: 'These gods, who did not make the heavens and the earth, will perish from the earth and from under the heavens.' "
12But God made the earth by his power; he founded the world by his wisdom and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.
13When he thunders, the waters in the heavens roar; he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth. He sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from his storehouses.
14Everyone is senseless and without knowledge; every goldsmith is shamed by his idols. His images are a fraud; they have no breath in them.
15They are worthless, the objects of mockery; when their judgment⁹ comes, they will perish.
16He who is the Portion of Jacob is not like these, for he is the Maker¹⁰ of all things, including Israel, the tribe of his inheritance- the Lord Almighty¹¹ is his name.
17Gather up your belongings¹² to leave the land, you who live under siege.
18For this is what the Lord says: "At this time I will hurl¹³ out those who live in this land; I will bring distress¹⁴ on them so that they may be captured."
19Woe to me because of my injury! My wound is incurable¹⁵! Yet I said to myself, "This is my sickness, and I must endure it."
20My tent is destroyed; all its ropes are snapped. My sons are gone from me and are no more; no one is left now to pitch my tent or to set up my shelter.
21The shepherds are senseless and do not inquire of the Lord ; so they do not prosper¹⁶ and all their flock is scattered¹⁷.
22Listen! The report is coming- a great commotion¹⁸ from the land of the north! It will make the towns of Judah desolate¹⁹, a haunt of jackals.
23I know, O Lord , that a man's life is not his own; it is not for man to direct his steps.
24Correct me, Lord , but only with justice- not in your anger, lest you reduce me to nothing.
25Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge you, on the peoples who do not call on your name. For they have devoured²⁰ Jacob; they have devoured him completely and destroyed his homeland.
