Jeremiah 耶利米书15

（单词翻译）

15Then the Lord said to me: "Even if Moses and Samuel were to stand before me, my heart would not go out to this people. Send them away from my presence! Let them go!
2And if they ask you, 'Where shall we go?' tell them, 'This is what the Lord says: " 'Those destined¹ for death, to death; those for the sword, to the sword; those for starvation, to starvation; those for captivity², to captivity.'
3"I will send four kinds of destroyers against them," declares the Lord , "the sword to kill and the dogs to drag away and the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth to devour³ and destroy.
4I will make them abhorrent⁴ to all the kingdoms of the earth because of what Manasseh son of Hezekiah king of Judah did in Jerusalem.
5"Who will have pity on you, O Jerusalem? Who will mourn for you? Who will stop to ask how you are?
6You have rejected me," declares the Lord . "You keep on backsliding. So I will lay hands on you and destroy you; I can no longer show compassion⁵.
7I will winnow⁶ them with a winnowing⁷ fork at the city gates of the land. I will bring bereavement⁸ and destruction on my people, for they have not changed their ways.
8I will make their widows more numerous than the sand of the sea. At midday I will bring a destroyer against the mothers of their young men; suddenly I will bring down on them anguish⁹ and terror.
9The mother of seven will grow faint and breathe her last. Her sun will set while it is still day; she will be disgraced and humiliated¹⁰. I will put the survivors¹¹ to the sword before their enemies," declares the Lord .
10Alas, my mother, that you gave me birth, a man with whom the whole land strives and contends! I have neither lent nor borrowed, yet everyone curses me.
11The Lord said, "Surely I will deliver you for a good purpose; surely I will make your enemies plead with you in times of disaster and times of distress¹².
12"Can a man break iron- iron from the north-or bronze?
13Your wealth and your treasures I will give as plunder¹³, without charge, because of all your sins throughout your country.
14I will enslave you to your enemies in a land you do not know, for my anger will kindle¹⁴ a fire that will burn against you."
15You understand, O Lord ; remember me and care for me. Avenge¹⁵ me on my persecutors. You are long-suffering-do not take me away; think of how I suffer reproach for your sake.
16When your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart's delight, for I bear your name, O Lord God Almighty¹⁶.
17I never sat in the company of revelers, never made merry with them; I sat alone because your hand was on me and you had filled me with indignation.
18Why is my pain unending and my wound grievous and incurable¹⁷? Will you be to me like a deceptive¹⁸ brook¹⁹, like a spring that fails?
19Therefore this is what the Lord says: "If you repent²⁰, I will restore you that you may serve me; if you utter worthy²¹, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman. Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them.
20I will make you a wall to this people, a fortified²² wall of bronze; they will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you to rescue and save you," declares the Lord .
21"I will save you from the hands of the wicked and redeem²³ you from the grasp of the cruel."
