¹審判萬國“看哪！到了那些日子，在那個時期，我使猶大和耶路撒冷被擄的人歸回，（本節在《馬索拉抄本》為4:1）

¹For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring back the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,

²我必招聚列國，領他們下到約沙法谷，為了我的子民，就是我的產業以色列，我要在那裡親臨審判他們，因為他們把我的子民分散在列國中，又分取了我的地土。

²I will gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat; and I will execute judgment upon them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations: and they have parted my land,

³他們為我的子民抽籤，用男童交換妓女，女童被賣換酒喝。

³and have cast lots for my people, and have given a boy for a harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they may drink.

⁴“推羅、西頓和非利士四境的人哪！你們想對我作甚麼呢？你們想向我報復嗎？你們若向我報復，我很快就使報應歸在你們的頭上。

⁴Yea, and what are ye to me, O Tyre, and Sidon, and all the regions of Philistia? will ye render me a recompense? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompense upon your own head.

⁵你們拿去了我的金銀，又把我的珍寶帶進了你們的廟宇。

⁵Forasmuch as ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly precious things,

⁶你們把猶大人和耶路撒冷人賣給希臘人，使他們遠離自己的境界。

⁶and have sold the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem unto the sons of the Grecians, that ye may remove them far from their border;

⁷看哪！我要激動他們離開被你們賣到的地方，我也要使報應歸到你們的頭上。

⁷behold, I will stir them up out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompense upon your own head;

⁸我必把你們的兒女賣在猶大人的手中，猶大人必把他們賣給遠方示巴國的人，因為這是耶和華說的。”

⁸and I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the men of Sheba, to a nation far off: for Jehovah hath spoken it.

⁹你們要在列國中宣告以下這話：“你們要預備爭戰，要激動勇士。讓所有的戰士都近前來，讓他們都上去攻擊。

⁹Proclaim ye this among the nations; prepare war; stir up the mighty men; let all the men of war draw near, let them come up.

¹⁰要把犁頭打成刀劍，把鐮刀打成矛槍；軟弱的要說：‘我是勇士。’

¹⁰Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning-hooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.

¹¹四圍的列國啊！你們快來幫助，在那裡一同聚集。耶和華啊！求你叫你的勇士下來吧。

¹¹Haste ye, and come, all ye nations round about, and gather yourselves together: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O Jehovah.

¹²在約沙法谷審判萬民“萬國都當奮起，上到約沙法谷去。因為我必坐在那裡，審判四圍的列國。

¹²Let the nations bestir themselves, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat; for there will I sit to judge all the nations round about.

¹³你們要伸出鐮刀，因為莊稼已經熟了。來踐踏吧，因為壓酒池滿了，酒池盈溢，因為他們的罪惡極大。

¹³Put ye in the sickle; for the harvest is ripe: come, tread ye; for the winepress is full, the vats overflow; for their wickedness is great.

¹⁴無數的人群齊集在判決谷，因為耶和華的日子臨近了判決谷。

¹⁴Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! for the day of Jehovah is near in the valley of decision.

¹⁵日月昏暗，星星無光。

¹⁵The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.

¹⁶耶和華從錫安吼叫，並從耶路撒冷發聲，天地就震動。耶和華卻要作他子民的避難所，作以色列眾子的保障。

¹⁶And Jehovah will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but Jehovah will be a refuge unto his people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel.

¹⁷你們知道我是耶和華你們的　神，是住在錫安我的聖山上。那時，耶路撒冷必成為聖。外族人必不得從其中經過。

¹⁷So shall ye know that I am Jehovah your God, dwelling in Zion my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.

¹⁸到那日，大山都必滴下甜酒，小山都必流出奶，猶大的一切溪流，都必水流不息。必有泉源從耶和華的殿裡流出來，灌溉河谷。

¹⁸And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth from the house of Jehovah, and shall water the valley of Shittim.

¹⁹埃及將會荒涼，以東必變成淒涼的曠野，都因為他們向猶大人所行的強暴，又因為在他們的國中流了無辜人血。

¹⁹Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence done to the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.

²⁰猶大必永存“但猶大必存到永遠，耶路撒冷也必存到萬代。

²⁰But Judah shall abide for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.

²¹現在我要追討我還未有追討的流人血的罪。耶和華在錫安居住。”

²¹And I will cleanse their blood, that I have not cleansed: for Jehovah dwelleth in Zion.
