¹弃婴的比喻

¹And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,

²“人子啊！你要使耶路撒冷知道她那些可憎之事；

²`Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations, and thou hast said:

³你要说：‘主耶和华对耶路撒冷这样说：你的根源和出生地是在迦南地；你的父亲是亚摩利人，你的母亲是赫人。

³Thus said the Lord Jehovah to Jerusalem: Thy birth and thy nativity [Are] of the land of the Canaanite, Thy father the Amorite, and thy mother a Hittite.

⁴在你生下来的日子，没有人替你断脐带，没有人用水洗你，使你洁净，没有人撒盐在你身上，也没有人用布包裹你。

⁴As to thy nativity, in the day thou wast born, Thou — thy navel hath not been cut, And in water thou wast not washed for ease, And thou hast not been salted at all, And thou hast not been swaddled at all.

⁵没有人顾惜可怜你，愿意为你作上述任何一件事；你却被人拋弃在田野，因为你出生的时候，你是被人厌恶的。

⁵No eye hath had pity on thee, to do to thee any of these, To have compassion on thee, And thou art cast on the face of the field, With loathing of thy person. In the day thou hast been born — thou!

⁶主的宠爱“‘但我从你身旁经过，见你在血中挣扎。那时，你躺在血中，我对你说：要活下去。

⁶And I do pass over by thee, And I see thee trodden down in thy blood, And I say to thee in thy blood, Live, And I say to thee in thy blood, Live.

⁷我使你生长起来，像田间的植物。于是你生长起来，渐渐长大，好像最美丽的珠宝，你的两乳长成，头发秀长；但你仍是赤身露体。

⁷A myriad — as the shoot of the field I have made thee, And thou art multiplied, and art great, And comest in with an excellent adornment, Breasts have been formed, and thy hair hath grown — And thou, naked and bare!

⁸我又从你身旁经过，见你已经到了谈情说爱的时候，我就用我的衣襟搭在你身上，遮盖你赤裸的身体；我又向你起誓，与你立约，于是你就属于我了。这是主耶和华的宣告。

⁸And I pass over by thee, and I see thee, And lo, thy time [is] a time of loves, And I spread My skirt over thee, And I cover thy nakedness, And I swear to thee, and come in to a covenant with thee, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And thou dost become Mine.

⁹那时我用水洗你，洗净你身上的血，又用油抹你。

⁹And I do wash thee with water, And I wash away thy blood from off thee, And I anoint thee with perfume.

¹⁰我使你身穿刺绣的衣裳，脚穿海狗皮鞋；用细麻布给你裹头；又用丝绸给你披在身上。

¹⁰And I clothe thee with embroidery, And I shoe thee with badger`s skin, And I gird thee with fine linen, And I cover thee with figured silk.

¹¹我用珠宝给你打扮，把手环戴在你手上，把项链戴在你颈上，

¹¹And I adorn thee with adornments, And I give bracelets for thy hands, And a chain for thy neck.

¹²又把鼻环戴在你鼻子上，把耳环戴在你耳朵上，把美丽的冠冕戴在你头上。

¹²And I give a ring for thy nose, And rings for thine ears, And a crown of beauty on thy head.

¹³这样你就有了金银的装饰，你穿的是细麻、丝绸和刺绣的衣服；你吃的是细面、蜂蜜和油；你实在非常美丽，配登王后的位。

¹³And thou dost put on gold and silver, And thy clothing [is] fine linen, And figured silk and embroidery, Fine flour, and honey, and oil thou hast eaten, And thou art very very beautiful, And dost go prosperously to the kingdom.

¹⁴你的名声因你的美丽传遍列国，你全然美丽，是因为我加在你身上的荣美。这是主耶和华的宣告。

¹⁴And go forth doth thy name among nations, Because of thy beauty — for it [is] complete, In My honour that I have set upon thee, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

¹⁵背约纵淫“‘可是你倚仗你的美丽，又凭着你的名声去行淫；你向每一个过路的人纵情淫乱。

¹⁵And thou dost trust in thy beauty, And goest a-whoring because of thy renown, And dost pour out thy whoredoms On every passer by — to him it is.

¹⁶你拿了你的一些衣服，为自己建造色彩缤纷的邱坛，又在那里行淫。这样的事不应发生，将来也不会再出现。

¹⁶And thou dost take of thy garments, And dost make to thee spotted high-places, And dost go a-whoring upon them, They are not coming in — nor shall it be!

¹⁷你又拿了我送给你那些美丽的金器银器，为自己铸造男人的像，与那些像行淫。

¹⁷And thou dost take thy beauteous vessels Of My gold and My silver that I gave to thee, And dost make to thee images of a male, And dost go a-whoring with them,

¹⁸你又拿你的刺绣衣服，盖在它们身上，并且把我的油和香料都摆在它们面前。

¹⁸And dost take the garments of thy embroidery, And thou dost cover them, And My oil and My perfume thou hast set before them.

¹⁹你把我赐给你的食物，就是我给你吃的细面、油和蜂蜜，都摆在它们面前作馨香的祭物。这是主耶和华的宣告。

¹⁹And My bread, that I gave to thee, Fine flour, and oil, and honey, that I caused thee to eat. Thou hast even set it before them, For a sweet fragrance — thus it is, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

²⁰你更把你的儿女，就是你给我所生的儿女，献给它们作食物；你所行的淫乱还算是小事吗？

²⁰And thou dost take thy sons and thy daughters Whom thou hast born to Me, And dost sacrifice them to them for food. Is it a little thing because of thy whoredoms,

²¹你竟宰杀了我的儿女，使他们经火，献给它们。

²¹That thou dost slaughter My sons, And dost give them up in causing them to pass over to them?

²²你行这一切可憎和淫乱的事，并没有想过你年幼的日子，那时你赤身露体，在血中挣扎。

²²And with all thine abominations and thy whoredoms, Thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, When thou wast naked and bare, Trodden down in thy blood thou wast!

²³“‘你有祸了，有祸了！这是主耶和华的宣告。你行了这一切恶事以后，

²³And it cometh to pass, after all thy wickedness, (Wo, wo, to thee — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah),

²⁴你又为自己建造高冈，在各广场上筑起高坛。

²⁴That thou dost build to thee an arch, And dost make to thee a high place in every broad place.

²⁵你在各路口建造高坛，使你的美丽变为可憎的，又向每一个过路的人张开两腿，多行淫乱。

²⁵At every head of the way thou hast built thy high place, And thou dost make thy beauty abominable, And dost open wide thy feet to every passer by, And dost multiply thy whoredoms,

²⁶你也与放纵情欲的邻居埃及人行淫，多行淫乱，惹我发怒。

²⁶And dost go a-whoring unto sons of Egypt, Thy neighbours — great of appetite! And thou dost multiply thy whoredoms, To provoke Me to anger.

²⁷因此，我伸手攻击你，减少你的粮食（“粮食”或译：“领土”），又把你交给那些恨你的非利士女子，使她们任意待你；她们对你邪荡的行为也感到羞愧。

²⁷And lo, I have stretched out My hand against thee, And I diminish thy portion, And give thee to the desire of those hating thee, The daughters of the Philistines, Who are ashamed of thy wicked way.

²⁸可是，因为你还不满足，又与亚述人行淫；你与他们行淫之后，还是不满足。

²⁸And thou goest a-whoring unto sons of Asshur, Without thy being satisfied, And thou dost go a-whoring with them, And also — thou hast not been satisfied.

²⁹于是你增多你的淫乱，与贸易之地迦勒底行淫，你还是不满足。

²⁹And thou dost multiply thy whoredoms On the land of Canaan — toward Chaldea, And even with this thou hast not been satisfied.

³⁰“‘你行的这一切事，简直是任性无耻的妓女所为，可见你的意志是多么的薄弱。这是耶和华的宣告。

³⁰How weak [is] thy heart, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, In thy doing all these, The work of a domineering whorish woman.

³¹你在各路口建造你的高冈，又在各广场上筑起你的高坛；然而你并不像一个妓女，因为你藐视卖淫所得的赏赐。

³¹In thy building thine arch at the head of every way, Thy high place thou hast made in every broad place, And — hast not been as a whore deriding a gift.

³²你这淫乱的妻子啊！你竟接外人而不接自己的丈夫。

³²The wife who committeth adultery — Under her husband — doth receive strangers.

³³人都把礼物送给妓女，你却把你的礼物送给你的爱人，贿赂他们从四面来与你行淫。

³³To all whores they give a gift, And — thou hast given thy gifts to all thy lovers, And dost bribe them to come in unto thee, From round about — in thy whoredoms.

³⁴你的淫行与别的妇女不同，因为不是人把礼物送给你，要求与你行淫，是你把礼物送给人，所以你是不同的。

³⁴And the contrary is in thee from women in thy whoredoms, That after thee none doth go a-whoring; And in thy giving a gift, And a gift hath not been given to thee; And thou art become contrary.

³⁵严惩耶路撒冷的罪“‘因此，你这妓女啊，要听耶和华的话！

³⁵Therefore, O whore, hear a word of Jehovah,

³⁶主耶和华这样说：因为你的情欲倾注出来，你与你的爱人行淫，露出你的下体，又因为你拜一切可憎的偶像，流儿女的血，把血献给偶像，

³⁶Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy brass being poured forth, And thy nakedness is revealed in thy whoredoms near thy lovers, And near all the idols of thy abominations, And according to the blood of thy sons, Whom thou hast given to them;

³⁷所以我要把所有与你欢合的爱人，就是所有你所爱的和你所恨的，都聚集起来；我要把他们从四围聚集起来攻击你；我要在他们面前露出你的下体，使他们看见你全身赤裸。

³⁷Therefore, lo, I am assembling all thy lovers, To whom thou hast been sweet, And all whom thou hast loved, Besides all whom thou hast hated; And I have assembled them by thee round about, And have revealed thy nakedness to them, And they have seen all thy nakedness.

³⁸我要审判你，像审判行奸淫和流人血的妇人一样；我要因我的烈怒和妒忿，使流人血的罪归在你身上。

³⁸And I have judged thee — judgments of adultresses, And of women shedding blood, And have given thee blood, fury, and jealousy.

³⁹我要把你交在他们手里，他们要拆毁你的高冈，破坏你的高坛，剥去你的衣服，夺去你美丽的珠宝，只留下你赤露的身躯。

³⁹And I have given thee into their hand, And they have thrown down thine arch, And they have broken down thy high places, And they have stript thee of thy garments, And they have taken thy beauteous vessels, And they have left thee naked and bare.

⁴⁰他们必带一大群人上来攻击你，用石头打死你，用他们的刀把你砍碎。

⁴⁰And have caused an assembly to come up against thee, And stoned thee with stones, And thrust thee through with their swords,

⁴¹他们也要用火烧你的房屋，在许多妇人面前向你施行审判。我必止住你的淫行，也必使你不再把诱人行淫的礼物送给人。

⁴¹And burnt thy houses with fire, And done in thee judgments before the eyes of many women, And I have caused thee to cease from going a-whoring, And also a gift thou givest no more.

⁴²这样我向你发的烈怒就可以平息，我的妒忿也可以离开你；我可以安静，不再恼怒了。

⁴²And I have caused My fury against thee to rest, And My jealousy hath turned aside from thee, And I have been quiet, and I am not angry any more.

⁴³因为你不追念你年幼的日子，反而在这一切事上惹我发怒；看哪！我必照着你所行的报应在你头上，这是主耶和华的宣告。在你一切可憎的事以外，你岂不是还行了这淫乱的丑事吗？

⁴³Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, And dost give trouble to Me in all these, Lo, even I also thy way at first gave up, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And I did not this thought for all thine abominations.

⁴⁴有其母必有其女“‘凡引用俗语的，必用这俗语指着你说：有其母，必有其女。

⁴⁴Lo, every one using a simile, Doth use a simile concerning thee, saying: As the mother — her daughter!

⁴⁵你实在是你母亲的女儿，她厌弃自己的丈夫和儿女；你实在是你姊妹的姊妹，她们厌弃她们的丈夫和儿女；你们的母亲是赫人，你们的父亲是亚摩利人。

⁴⁵Thy mother`s daughter thou [art], Loathing her husband and her sons, And thy sisters` sister thou [art], Who loathed their husbands and their sons, Your mother [is] a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.

⁴⁶你的姊姊是撒玛利亚，她和她的女儿们住在你的北面；你的妹妹是所多玛，她和她的女儿们住在你的南面。

⁴⁶And thine elder sister [is] Samaria, she and her daughters, Who is dwelling at thy left hand, And thy younger sister, who is dwelling on thy right hand, [is] Sodom and her daughters.

⁴⁷你不但行她们所行的，作她们所作的可憎之事，而且你还以那些事为小，你一切所行的比她们更坏。

⁴⁷And — in their ways thou hast not walked, And according to their abominations done, As a little thing it hath been loathed, And thou dost more corruptly than they in all thy ways.

⁴⁸我指着我的永生起誓，你的妹妹所多玛和她的女儿们，都没有行过像你和你女儿们所行的事。这是主耶和华的宣告。

⁴⁸I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Sodom thy sister hath not done — she and her daughters — As thou hast done — thou and thy daughters.

⁴⁹你妹妹所多玛的罪孽是这样：她和她的女儿们都骄傲自大，粮食丰足，生活安逸，却没有帮助困苦和贫穷的人。

⁴⁹Lo, this hath been the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, Arrogancy, fulness of bread, and quiet ease, Have been to her and to her daughters, And the hand of the afflicted and needy She hath not strengthened.

⁵⁰她们自高自傲，在我面前行了可憎的事；我看见了，就把她们除掉。

⁵⁰And they are haughty and do abomination before Me, And I turn them aside when I have seen.

⁵¹撒玛利亚所犯的罪还不及你所犯的一半；你所行的可憎之事比她更多，以致你的姊妹因你所行的一切可憎之事而显为义。

⁵¹As to Samaria, as the half of thy sins — she hath not sinned, And thou dost multiply thine abominations more than they, And dost justify thy sisters by all thy abominations that thou hast done.

⁵²你既然使你的姊妹较显为义，你就要承担自己的耻辱；因为你所犯的罪比她们所犯的更可憎，她们比你更显为义。你使你的姊妹较显为义，所以你就要惭愧，承担自己的耻辱了。

⁵²Thou also — bear thy shame, That thou hast adjudged to thy sisters, Because of thy sins that thou hast done more abominably than they, They are more righteous than thou, And thou, also, be ashamed and bear thy shame, In thy justifying thy sisters.

⁵³应许悔改者必蒙恩与复兴“‘我要使所多玛和她的女儿们，撒玛利亚和她的女儿们从苦境中转回，我也要使你们跟她们一起转回，

⁵³And I have turned back [to] their captivity, The captivity of Sodom and her daughters, And the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, And the captivity of thy captives in their midst,

⁵⁴好使你担当自己的耻辱，并且因你一切所行的使她们得了安慰，你就自觉惭愧。

⁵⁴So that thou dost bear thy shame, And hast been ashamed of all that thou hast done, In thy comforting them.

⁵⁵你的妹妹所多玛和她的女儿们必回复原来的状况；撒玛利亚和她的女儿们必回复原来的状况；你和你的女儿们也必回复原来的状况。

⁵⁵And thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, Do turn back to their former state, And Samaria and her daughters Do turn back to their former state, And thou and thy daughters do turn back to your former state.

⁵⁶在你骄傲自大的日子，你妹妹所多玛在你口中不是成了笑柄吗？

⁵⁶And thy sister Sodom hath not been for a report in thy mouth, In the day of thine arrogancy,

⁵⁷那时你的恶行还没有显露出来，现在你却成了以东的女儿们和以东四围的众人，以及非利士的女儿们讥笑的对象。你周围的人都轻视你。

⁵⁷Before thy wickedness is revealed, As [at] the time of the reproach of the daughters of Aram, And of all her neighbours, the daughters of the Philistines, Who are despising thee round about.

⁵⁸你要承担你那些淫乱和可憎之事的后果。这是耶和华的宣告。

⁵⁸Thy devices and thine abominations, Thou hast borne them, an affirmation of Jehovah.

⁵⁹主耶和华这样说：你这藐视誓言、背弃盟约的，我必照着你所行的报应你。

⁵⁹For thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have dealt with thee as thou hast done, In that thou hast despised an oath — to break covenant.

⁶⁰“‘但我仍要记念在你年幼的时候与你所立的约，也要与你坚立永远的约。

⁶⁰And I — I have remembered My covenant with thee, In the days of thy youth, And I have established for thee a covenant age-during.

⁶¹你接纳你姊姊和你妹妹回来的时候，你就会想起你所行的，并要自觉惭愧；我要把她们赐给你作女儿，但这并不是出于我与你所立的约。

⁶¹And thou hast remembered thy ways, And thou hast been ashamed, In thy receiving thy sisters — Thine elder with thy younger, And I have given them to thee for daughters, And not by thy covenant.

⁶²我要坚立我与你所立的约，你就知道我是耶和华，

⁶²And I — I have established My covenant with thee, And thou hast known that I [am] Jehovah.

⁶³好使你在我赦免你所行的一切时，就会回想，自觉惭愧，并且因你所受的羞辱不再开口。这是主耶和华的宣告。’”

⁶³So that thou dost remember, And thou hast been ashamed, And there is not to thee any more an opening of the mouth because of thy shame, In My receiving atonement for thee, For all that thou hast done, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!`
