1關於摩押的預言論到摩押，萬軍之耶和華以色列的 神這樣說：“尼波有禍了！因為它變為荒涼；基列亭蒙受羞辱，被佔領了；這城堡（“這城堡”或譯：“米斯迦”）蒙受羞辱，被毀壞。
1Of Moab. Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Woe to Nebo! for it is laid waste; Kiriathaim is disappointed, it is taken; Misgab is put to shame and broken down.
2摩押不再被人稱讚；敵人在希實本計謀害它，說：‘來吧！我們要把它剪除，使它不再成國！’瑪得緬哪！你也要靜默無聲；刀劍必追趕你。
2The praise of Moab is no more; in Heshbon they have devised evil against her: Come, and let us cut her off from being a nation. You also, Madmen, shall be brought to silence: the sword shall pursue you.
3從何羅念傳出哀號的聲音，說：‘荒涼了，大大毀滅了！’
3The sound of a cry from Horonaim, desolation and great destruction!
4摩押毀滅了，它的孩童發出哀叫（“它的孩童發出哀叫”或參照《七十士譯本》譯作“哀叫之聲直達瑣珥”）。
4Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
5在上魯希的路上，摩押人隨走隨哭；從何羅念下來的途中，聽見他們因城被毀發出淒慘的哀號聲。”
5For by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping shall they go up; for at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
6你們要逃跑，趕快逃命吧！你們好像曠野的灌木。
6Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.
7你因為倚靠你的成就和財富，就必被攻取；基抹必被擄去，事奉它的祭司和領袖都必一同被擄去。
7For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also shall be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
8行毀滅的必來攻擊一切城鎮，沒有一座城可以倖免；山谷必被蹂躪，平原必受破壞，正如耶和華所說的。
8The destroyer shall come on every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed; as Yahweh has spoken.
9你們要在摩押上面撒鹽，因為它必成為廢墟（“你們要在摩押上面撒鹽，因為它必成為廢墟”或譯：“你們要把翅膀給摩押，因為它必飛去”）；它的城鎮必成為荒涼，沒有人在裡面居住。
9Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get her away: and her cities shall become a desolation, without any to dwell therein.
10不努力去作耶和華的工作的，該受咒詛；不使自己的刀劍見血的，應受咒詛。
10Cursed is he who does the work of Yahweh negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
11摩押自年幼以來常享安逸，像不受攪擾的酒在缸裡澄清，從沒有倒進另一個缸裡去，它也從沒有被人擄去。因此它仍保留著原味，它的芬芳沒有改變失去。
11Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.
12“看哪！日子快到（這是耶和華的宣告），我必差派倒酒的人到它那裡去，把它倒出來，直至倒空，又把酒缸打碎。
12Therefore behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will send to him those who pour off, and they shall pour him off; and they shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles in pieces.
13摩押必因基抹羞愧，好像以色列家因他們可倚靠的伯特利的神像羞愧一樣。
13Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.
14你們怎麼說：‘我們是勇士，是善戰的武士’？
14How do you say, We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war?
15摩押被毀滅；敵人上來攻擊它的城鎮；摩押最精銳的少年下去被屠殺。”這是君王的宣告，他的名是萬軍之耶和華。
15Moab is laid waste, and they are gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, says the King, whose name is Yahweh of Armies.
16“摩押的災難已經臨近了，它的禍患迅速來到。
16The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.
17所有在它四圍的，所有認識它名的，你們都要為它哀悼，說：‘那有能力的權杖、華美的杖竟然折斷了！’
17All you who are around him, bemoan him, and all you who know his name; say, How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod!
18住在底本的人民哪！要從你們榮耀的位上下來，坐在乾旱的地上（“乾旱的地上”原文作“乾渴”），因為毀滅摩押的要上來攻擊你們，摧毀你們的堅固城。
18You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you, he has destroyed your strongholds.
19亞羅珥的居民哪！要站在路旁觀望，詢問那些正在逃跑的男女，說：‘發生了甚麼事？’
19Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and watch: ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, What has been done?
20摩押蒙受羞辱，因為它已被毀滅了。你們要哀號喊叫，要在亞嫩河宣告：‘摩押毀滅了。’
20Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down: wail and cry; tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.
21審判臨到了平原之地，就是何倫、雅雜、米法押、
21Judgment has come on the plain country, on Holon, and on Jahzah, and on Mephaath,
22底本、尼波、伯．低比拉太音、
22and on Dibon, and on Nebo, and on Beth Diblathaim,
23基列亭、伯．迦末、伯．米恩、
23and on Kiriathaim, and on Beth Gamul, and on Beth Meon,
24加略、波斯拉和摩押地遠近所有城市。
24and on Kerioth, and on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25摩押的角被砍下，它的膀臂被折斷了。”這是耶和華的宣告。
25The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, says Yahweh.
26你們要使摩押沉醉，因為它向耶和華妄自尊大；摩押必跌在自己所吐之物上面，也必成為被人譏笑的對象。
26Make him drunken; for he magnified himself against Yahweh: and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
27摩押啊，以色列不是曾經成為你譏笑的對象嗎？它豈是被捕獲的強盜，以致你每逢提到它，總是搖頭嘲笑。
27For wasn’t Israel a derision to you? was he found among thieves? for as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
28摩押的居民哪！你們要離棄城鎮，住在山巖裡，像鴿子在峽谷的邊上築巢。
28You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock; and be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
29我們聽說摩押的驕傲，它非常驕傲；我們聽到它的狂妄、驕傲、傲慢和心裡的自高。
29We have heard of the pride of Moab. He is very proud; his loftiness, and his pride, and his arrogance, and the haughtiness of his heart.
30“我洞悉它的狂傲（這是耶和華的宣告），它的狂傲毫無根據，它的誇耀不能成事。
30I know his wrath, says Yahweh, that it is nothing; his boastings have worked nothing.
31因此我要為摩押哀號，為全摩押喊叫，為吉珥．哈列設人（“為吉珥．哈列設人”有古抄本作“他為吉珥．哈列設人”）唉哼。
31Therefore will I wail for Moab; yes, I will cry out for all Moab: for the men of Kir Heres shall they mourn.
32西比瑪的葡萄樹啊！我要你哀哭比人為雅謝哀哭更厲害。你的枝子伸展過海，延伸到雅謝（“雅謝”有古抄本作“雅謝海”）；那行毀滅的要來摧毀你夏天的果子和你的葡萄。
32With more than the weeping of Jazer will I weep for you, vine of Sibmah: your branches passed over the sea, they reached even to the sea of Jazer: on your summer fruits and on your vintage the destroyer is fallen.
33摩押肥沃的土地上不再有歡喜和快樂；我使榨酒池不再流出酒；再沒有人歡呼踹酒；有人呼喊，卻不是踹酒的歡呼聲。
33Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses: none shall tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting.
34“希實本的哀叫傳到以利亞利，他們發出的聲音傳到雅雜，從瑣珥達到何羅谷和伊基拉．施利施亞；因為連寧林的河水也都乾涸了。
34From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah: for the waters of Nimrim also shall become desolate.
35我要滅絕在摩押那些邱壇上獻祭和向他們的神燒香的。”這是耶和華的宣告。
35Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, says Yahweh, him who offers in the high place, and him who burns incense to his gods.
36“因此，我的心為摩押嗚咽，好像人用笛吹輓歌；我的心為吉珥．哈列設人嗚咽，好像人用笛吹輓歌；因為他們所得的財寶都失掉了。
36Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like pipes, and my heart sounds like pipes for the men of Kir Heres: therefore the abundance that he has gotten is perished.
37他們各人的頭都剃光了，鬍鬚也剃掉了，他們割傷了自己的手，腰束麻布。
37For every head is bald, and every beard clipped: on all the hands are cuttings, and on the waist sackcloth.
38摩押境內一切房頂上和廣場上，處處都有哀哭的聲音；因為我擊碎了摩押，好像打碎沒有人要的器皿。”這是耶和華的宣告。
38On all the housetops of Moab and in its streets there is lamentation every where; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which none delights, says Yahweh.
39摩押的毀滅多麼厲害，他們的哀號多麼悽慘！摩押怎樣蒙羞轉背！這樣摩押就成了它四圍眾人譏笑和驚駭的對象。”
39How it is broken down! How they wail! How Moab has turned the back with shame! So shall Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.
40因為耶和華這樣說：“看哪！必有一人像大鷹疾飛，展開翅膀攻擊摩押。
40For thus says Yahweh: Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread out his wings against Moab.
41城市被攻取，堅壘被佔領；在那日，摩押勇士的心必驚慌，像臨產婦人的心一樣。
41Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized, and the heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42摩押必被摧毀，不再成為一個民族，因為它向耶和華妄自尊大。
42Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against Yahweh.
43摩押的居民哪！恐懼、陷阱、圈套都落在你們身上了。”這是耶和華的宣告。
43Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are on you, inhabitant of Moab, says Yahweh.
44“那逃避恐懼的，必跌進陷阱；那從陷阱中出來的，必被圈套困著。因為我必使摩押受懲罰的年日臨到它。”這是耶和華的宣告。
44He who flees from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation, says Yahweh.
45“在希實本的隱蔽處，難民精疲力盡地站著；因為有火從希實本發出，有火燄從西宏的宮中冒出來，吞滅了摩押的前額，和吵鬧的人的頭頂。
45Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire is gone forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and has devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
46摩押啊，你有禍了！基抹的人民滅亡了！因為你的眾子都被擄去了，你的眾女兒也都被擄去了。
46Woe to you, O Moab! the people of Chemosh is undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.
47但日後，我必使被擄的摩押人歸回。”這是耶和華的宣告。有關摩押的宣判到這裡為止。
47Yet will I bring back the captivity of Moab in the latter days, says Yahweh. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
