耶利米書 Jeremiah

3:1	[hb5]	有話說、人若休妻、妻離他而去、作了別人的妻、前夫豈能再收回他來．若收回他來、那地豈不是大大玷污了麼．但你和許多親愛的行邪淫、還可以歸向我．這是耶和華說的。
	[kjv]	They say, If a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and become another man's, shall he return unto her again? shall not that land be greatly polluted? but thou hast played the harlot with many lovers; yet return again to me, saith the LORD.
	[bbe]	They say, If a man puts away his wife and she goes from him and becomes another man's, will he go back to her again? will not that land have been made unclean? but though you have been acting like a loose woman with a number of lovers, will you now come back to me? says the Lord.
3:2	[hb5]	你向淨光的高處舉目觀看．你在何處沒有淫行呢．你坐在道旁等候、好像亞拉伯人在曠野埋伏一樣．並且你的淫行邪惡玷污了全地。
	[kjv]	Lift up thine eyes unto the high places, and see where thou hast not been lien with. In the ways hast thou sat for them, as the Arabian in the wilderness; and thou hast polluted the land with thy whoredoms and with thy wickedness.
	[bbe]	Let your eyes be lifted up to the open hilltops, and see; where have you not been taken by your lovers? You have been seated waiting for them by the wayside like an Arabian in the waste land; you have made the land unclean with your loose ways and your evil-doing.
3:3	[hb5]	因此甘霖停止、春〔原文作晚〕雨不降．你還是有娼妓之臉、不顧羞恥。
	[kjv]	Therefore the showers have been withholden, and there hath been no latter rain; and thou hadst a whore's forehead, thou refusedst to be ashamed.
	[bbe]	So the showers have been kept back, and there has been no spring rain; still your brow is the brow of a loose woman, you will not let yourself be shamed.
3:4	[hb5]	從今以後、你豈不向我呼叫說、我父阿、你是我幼年的恩主。
	[kjv]	Wilt thou not from this time cry unto me, My father, thou art the guide of my youth?
	[bbe]	Will you not, from this time, make your prayer to me, crying, My father, you are the friend of my early years?
3:5	[hb5]	耶和華豈永遠懷怒、存留到底麼．看哪、你又發惡言、又行壞事、隨自己的私意而行。〔或作你雖這樣說還是行惡放縱慾心〕
	[kjv]	Will he reserve his anger for ever? will he keep it to the end? Behold, thou hast spoken and done evil things as thou couldest.
	[bbe]	Will he be angry for ever? will he keep his wrath to the end? These things you have said, and have done evil and have had your way.
3:6	[hb5]	約西亞王在位的時候、耶和華又對我說、背道的以色列所行的、你看見沒有．他上各高山、在各青翠樹下行淫。
	[kjv]	The LORD said also unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there hath played the harlot.
	[bbe]	And the Lord said to me in the days of Josiah the king, Have you seen what Israel, turning away from me, has done? She has gone up on every high mountain and under every branching tree, acting like a loose woman there.
3:7	[hb5]	他行這些事以後、我說、他必歸向我．他卻不歸向我．他奸詐的妹妹猶大、也看見了。
	[kjv]	And I said after she had done all these things, Turn thou unto me. But she returned not. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.
	[bbe]	And I said, After she has done all these things she will come back to me; but she did not. And her false sister Judah saw it.
3:8	[hb5]	背道的以色列行淫．我為這緣故給他休書休他．我看見他奸詐的妹妹猶大、還不懼怕、也去行淫。
	[kjv]	And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.
	[bbe]	And though she saw that, because Israel, turning away from me, had been untrue to me, I had put her away and given her a statement in writing ending the relation between us, still Judah, her false sister, had no fear, but went and did the same.
3:9	[hb5]	因以色列輕忽了他的淫亂、和石頭木頭行淫、地就被玷污了。
	[kjv]	And it came to pass through the lightness of her whoredom, that she defiled the land, and committed adultery with stones and with stocks.
	[bbe]	So that through all her loose behaviour the land became unclean, and she was untrue, giving herself to stones and trees.
3:10	[hb5]	雖有這一切的事、他奸詐的妹妹猶大、還不一心歸向我、不過是假意歸我．這是耶和華說的。
	[kjv]	And yet for all this her treacherous sister Judah hath not turned unto me with her whole heart, but feignedly, saith the LORD.
	[bbe]	But for all this, her false sister Judah has not come back to me with all her heart, but with deceit, says the Lord.
3:11	[hb5]	耶和華對我說、背道的以色列、比奸詐的猶大還顯為義
	[kjv]	And the LORD said unto me, The backsliding Israel hath justified herself more than treacherous Judah.
	[bbe]	And the Lord said to me, Israel in her turning away is seen to be more upright than false Judah.
3:12	[hb5]	你去向北方宣告說、耶和華說、背道的以色列阿、回來罷．我必不怒目看你們．因為我是慈愛的、我必不永遠存怒．這是耶和華說的。
	[kjv]	Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the LORD; and I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the LORD, and I will not keep anger for ever.
	[bbe]	Go, and give out these words to the north, and say, Come back, O Israel, though you have been turned away from me, says the Lord; my face will not be against you in wrath: for I am full of mercy, says the Lord, I will not be angry for ever.
3:13	[hb5]	只要承認你的罪孽、就是你違背耶和華你的　神、在各青翠樹下、向別神東奔西跑、沒有聽從我的話．這是耶和華說的。
	[kjv]	Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the LORD thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the LORD.
	[bbe]	Only be conscious of your sin, the evil you have done against the Lord your God; you have gone with strange men under every branching tree, giving no attention to my voice, says the Lord.
3:14	[hb5]	耶和華說、背道的兒女阿、回來罷．因為我作你們的丈夫．並且我必將你們從一城取一人、從一族取兩人、帶到錫安。
	[kjv]	Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion:
	[bbe]	Come back, O children who are turned away, says the Lord; for I am a husband to you, and I will take you, one from a town and two from a family, and will make you come to Zion;
3:15	[hb5]	我也必將合我心的牧者、賜給你們．他們必以知識和智慧、牧養你們。
	[kjv]	And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
	[bbe]	And I will give you keepers, pleasing to my heart, who will give you your food with knowledge and wisdom.
3:16	[hb5]	耶和華說、你們在國中生養眾多、當那些日子、人必不再提說、耶和華的約櫃．不追想、不記念、不覺缺少、也不再製造。
	[kjv]	And it shall come to pass, when ye be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith the LORD, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of the LORD: neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more.
	[bbe]	And it will come about, when your numbers are increased in the land, in those days, says the Lord, that they will no longer say, The ark of the agreement of the Lord: it will not come into their minds, they will not have any memory of it, or be conscious of the loss of it, and it will not be made again.
3:17	[hb5]	那時、人必稱耶路撒冷為耶和華的寶座．萬國必到耶路撒冷、在耶和華立名的地方聚集．他們必不再隨從自己頑梗的惡心行事。
	[kjv]	At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart.
	[bbe]	At that time Jerusalem will be named the seat of the Lord's kingdom; and all the nations will come together to it, to the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem: and no longer will their steps be guided by the purposes of their evil hearts.
3:18	[hb5]	當那些日子、猶大家要和以色列家同行、從北方之地、一同來到我賜給你們列祖為業之地。
	[kjv]	In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.
	[bbe]	In those days the family of Judah will go with the family of Israel, and they will come together out of the land of the north into the land which I gave for a heritage to your fathers.
3:19	[hb5]	我說、我怎樣將你安置在兒女之中、賜給你美地、就是萬國中肥美的產業．我又說、你們必稱我為父、也不再轉去不跟從我。
	[kjv]	But I said, How shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? and I said, Thou shalt call me, My father; and shalt not turn away from me.
	[bbe]	But I said, How am I to put you among the children, and give you a desired land, a heritage of glory among the armies of the nations? and I said, You are to say to me, My father; and not be turned away from me.
3:20	[hb5]	以色列家、你們向我行詭詐、真像妻子行詭詐、離開他丈夫一樣．這是耶和華說的。
	[kjv]	Surely as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith the LORD.
	[bbe]	Truly, as a wife is false to her husband, so have you been false to me, O Israel, says the Lord.
3:21	[hb5]	在淨光的高處聽見人聲、就是以色列人哭泣懇求之聲．乃因他們走彎曲之道、忘記耶和華他們的　神。
	[kjv]	A voice was heard upon the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten the LORD their God.
	[bbe]	A voice is sounding on the open hilltops, the weeping and the prayers of the children of Israel; because their way is twisted, they have not kept the Lord their God in mind.
3:22	[hb5]	你們這背道的兒女阿、回來罷．我要醫治你們背道的病。看哪、我們來到你這裡．因你是耶和華我們的　神。
	[kjv]	Return, ye backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we come unto thee; for thou art the LORD our God.
	[bbe]	Come back, you children who have been turned away, and I will take away your desire for wandering. See, we have come to you, for you are the Lord our God.
3:23	[hb5]	仰望從小山、或從大山的喧嚷中得幫助、真是枉然的．以色列得救、誠然在乎耶和華我們的　神。
	[kjv]	Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly in the LORD our God is the salvation of Israel.
	[bbe]	Truly, the hills, and the noise of an army on the mountains, are a false hope: truly, in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel.
3:24	[hb5]	從我們幼年以來、那可恥的偶像、將我們列祖所勞碌得來的羊群牛群、和他們的兒女、都吞喫了。
	[kjv]	For shame hath devoured the labour of our fathers from our youth; their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.
	[bbe]	But the Baal has taken all the work of our fathers from our earliest days; their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.
3:25	[hb5]	我們在羞恥中躺臥罷．願慚愧將我們遮蓋．因為從立國〔原文作幼年〕以來、我們和我們的列祖、常常得罪耶和華我們的　神、沒有聽從耶和華我們　神的話。
	[kjv]	We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us: for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even unto this day, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.
	[bbe]	Let us be stretched on the earth in our downfall, covering ourselves with our shame: for we have been sinners against the Lord our God, we and our fathers, from our earliest years even till this day: and we have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God.
