¹约哈难不信耶利米的话

¹And it cometh to pass, when Jeremiah doth finish to speak unto all the people all the words of Jehovah their God, with which Jehovah their God hath sent him unto them — all these words —

²何沙雅的儿子亚撒利雅，和加利亚的儿子约哈难，以及所有狂傲的人，就对耶利米说：“你在说谎！耶和华我们的　神并没有差遣你来说：‘你们不可去埃及，在那里寄居。’

²that Azariah son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the proud men, speak unto Jeremiah, saying, `Falsehood thou art speaking; Jehovah our God hath not sent thee to say, Do not enter Egypt to sojourn there;

³只是尼利亚的儿子巴录怂恿你来反对我们，为要把我们交在迦勒底人的手中，好使我们被杀害，或被掳到巴比伦去。”

³for Baruch son of Neriah is moving thee against us, in order to give us up into the hand of the Chaldeans, to put us to death, and to remove us to Babylon.`

⁴于是加利亚的儿子约哈难和众将领，以及众民，都不听从耶和华要他们留在犹大地的命令。

⁴And Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces, and all the people, have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, to dwell in the land of Judah;

⁵约哈难带领人民下埃及相反地，加利亚的儿子约哈难和众将领却率领犹大所有余剩的人，就是那些从被赶逐到各国回来住在犹大地的，

⁵and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces, take all the remnant of Judah who have turned from all the nations whither they were driven to sojourn in the land of Judah,

⁶包括男人、女人、孩童和王的众公主，以及护卫长尼布撒拉旦留给沙番的孙子、亚希甘的儿子基大利管理的众人，还有耶利米先知和尼利亚的儿子巴录，

⁶the men, and the women, and the infant, and the daughters of the king, and every person that Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, had left with Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch son of Neriah,

⁷把他们都带进埃及地，去到答比匿，没有听从耶和华的话。

⁷and they enter the land of Egypt, for they have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, and they enter unto Tahpanhes.

⁸预言巴比伦王攻击埃及在答比匿耶和华的话临到耶利米，说：

⁸And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

⁹“你要在犹大人眼前亲手拿几块大石头，埋藏在答比匿法老宫殿门前砖窑的灰泥中；

⁹`Take in thy hand great stones, and thou hast hidden them, in the clay, in the brick-kiln, that [is] at the opening of the house of Pharaoh in Tahpanhes, before the eyes of the men of Judah,

¹⁰然后对他们说：‘万军之耶和华以色列的　神这样说：看哪！我要派人去领我的仆人巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒来；我要在我所埋藏的这些石头上安设他的王位；他必在上面张开他的帐篷。

¹⁰and thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: `Lo, I am sending, and I have taken Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and I have set his throne above these stones that I have hid, and he hath stretched out his pavilion over them,

¹¹他必来攻打埃及地；那些注定死亡的，必要死亡；那些注定被掳的，必要被掳；那些注定被刀杀的，必被刀杀。

¹¹and he hath come, and smitten the land of Egypt — those who [are] for death to death, and those who [are] for captivity to captivity, and those who [are] for the sword to the sword.

¹²他（“他”按照《马索拉抄本》应作“我”；现参照《七十士译本》翻译）必焚烧埃及的神庙，把它们烧毁，并且掳掠；他必得着埃及地，好像牧人披上衣服那么容易；他必安然离开那里。

¹²And I have kindled a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and it hath burned them, and he hath taken them captive, and covered himself with the land of Egypt, as cover himself doth the shepherd with his garment, and he hath gone forth thence in peace;

¹³他必打碎埃及地伯．示麦（“伯．示麦”或译：“太阳神庙”）的神柱，放火烧毁埃及神庙。’”

¹³and he hath broken the standing pillars of the house of the sun, that [is] in the land of Egypt, and the houses of the gods of Egypt he doth burn with fire.`
