¹以色列拜偶像受谴责

¹The righteous hath perished, And there is none laying [it] to heart, And men of kindness are gathered, Without any considering that from the face of evil Gathered is the righteous one.

²行事为人正直的，死后必得进入平安，在他们的坟墓里享安息。

²He entereth into peace, they rest on their beds, [Each] is going straightforward.

³但你们这些巫妇的儿子，奸夫和妓女的后裔啊！你们都走近这里行奸淫吧！

³And ye, come near hither, O sons of a sorceress, seed of an adulterer, Even thou dost commit whoredom.

⁴你们戏弄谁呢？你们张大嘴巴，伸长舌头戏弄谁呢？你们不是悖逆的孩子吗？不是虚谎的后裔吗？

⁴Against whom do ye sport yourselves? Against whom enlarge ye the mouth? Prolong ye the tongue? Are not ye children of transgression? a false seed?

⁵你们在橡树林中，在青翠树下欲火焚心；在山谷间，在岩穴里，宰杀自己的孩子作祭牲。

⁵Who are inflamed among oaks, under every green tree, Slaughtering the children in valleys, Under clefts of the rocks.

⁶在山谷中光滑的石头里有你的分；只有它们是你所要得的分！你也向它们浇了奠祭，献上了供物。这些事我岂能容忍不报复呢？

⁶Among the smooth things of a brook [is] thy portion, They — they [are] thy lot, Also to them thou hast poured out an oblation, Thou hast caused a present to ascend, For these things am I comforted?

⁷你在高高的山上安设你的床榻，又上到那里去献祭。

⁷On a mountain, high and exalted, Thou hast set thy couch, Also thither thou hast gone up to make a sacrifice.

⁸你在门后，在门框后，安设了外族神的记号；你远离了我，裸露了自己，就上床去，又扩张你的床，你也与他们立约；你爱他们的床，看他们的下体（“下体”原文作“手”）。

⁸And behind the door, and the post, Thou hast set up thy memorial, For from Me thou hast removed, and goest up, Thou hast enlarged thy couch, And dost covenant for thyself among them, Thou hast loved their couch, the station thou sawest,

⁹你带着油走到君王那里，并且加多了你的香料，差派使者到远方去，你甚至自己下到阴间去！

⁹And goest joyfully to the king in ointment, And dost multiply thy perfumes, And sendest thine ambassadors afar off, And humblest thyself unto Sheol.

¹⁰你因路途遥远而困乏，却不说：“没有希望了！”因为你找着了生命的力量，所以你不觉得疲倦。

¹⁰In the greatness of thy way thou hast laboured, Thou hast not said, `It is desperate.` The life of thy hand thou hast found, Therefore thou hast not been sick.

¹¹你怕谁？你因谁而惧怕，以致你对我说谎呢？你不记念我，也不把我放在心上，是不是因为我长久缄默，你就不惧怕我呢？

¹¹And of whom hast thou been afraid, and fearest, That thou liest, and Me hast not remembered? Thou hast not laid [it] to thy heart, Am not I silent, even from of old? And Me thou fearest not?

¹²我要说明你的公义和你所作的，但它们都必与你无益。

¹²I declare thy righteousness, and thy works, And they do not profit thee.

¹³你呼求的时候，让你所收集的偶像拯救你吧！但一阵风要把它们全都刮走，一口气要把它们全部吹去。然而那投靠我的，必承受地土，得着我的圣山作产业。

¹³When thou criest, let thy gatherings deliver thee, And all of them carry away doth wind, Take away doth vanity, And whoso is trusting in Me inheriteth the land, And doth possess My holy mountain.

¹⁴谦卑者与作恶者的分别必有人说：“你们要填高，要填高，要修平道路；把障碍物从我子民的路上除掉。”

¹⁴And he hath said, `Raise up, raise up, prepare a way, Lift a stumbling-block out of the way of My people.`

¹⁵因为那至高无上、永远存在、他名为圣的这样说：“虽然我住在至高至圣的地方，却与心灵痛悔和谦卑的人同在，要使谦卑人的灵苏醒，也使痛悔人的心苏醒。

¹⁵For thus said the high and exalted One, Inhabiting eternity, and holy [is] His name: `In the high and holy place I dwell, And with the bruised and humble of spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of bruised ones,`

¹⁶我必不永远争辩，也不长久发怒，因为这样，人的灵，就是我所造的人，在我面前就要发昏。

¹⁶For, not to the age do I strive, nor for ever am I wroth, For the spirit from before Me is feeble, And the souls I have made.

¹⁷因他贪婪的罪孽，我发怒了；我击打他，向他掩面，并且发怒，他仍然随着自己的心意背道。

¹⁷For the iniquity of his dishonest gain, I have been wroth, and I smite him, Hiding — and am wroth, And he goeth on turning back in the way of his heart.

¹⁸他的道路，我看见了，我却要医治他，引导他，把安慰赏赐他和他的哀悼者。

¹⁸His ways I have seen, and I heal him, yea, I lead him, And recompense comforts to him and to his mourning ones.

¹⁹我创造嘴唇的果子：平安，平安，归给远处的人，也归给近处的人。”耶和华说：“我要医治他。”

¹⁹Producing the fruit of the lips, `Peace, peace,` to the far off, and to the near, And I have healed him, said Jehovah.

²⁰恶人却像翻腾的海，不能平静，海中的水不住翻起污秽和淤泥来。

²⁰And the wicked [are] as the driven out sea, For to rest it is not able, And its waters cast out filth and mire.

²¹我的　神说：“恶人必没有平安。”

²¹There is no peace, said my God, to the wicked!
