1Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! says Yahweh.
1将来的指望
2Therefore thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, against the shepherds who feed my people: You have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them; behold, I will visit on you the evil of your doings, says Yahweh.
2因此，耶和华以色列的 神论到牧养他（“他”原文作“我”）子民的牧人这样说：“你们使我的羊群四散，把它们赶走，并没有看顾它们；看哪！我必因你们的恶行惩罚你们。”这是耶和华的宣告。
3I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and multiply.
3“我要亲自把我羊群中余剩的，从我把它们赶逐到的各地，招聚出来，领它们归回自己的羊圈，使它们繁殖增多。
4I will set up shepherds over them, who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be lacking, says Yahweh.
4我要兴起牧人，牧养它们；它们必不再恐惧惊慌，一个也不会失掉。”这是耶和华的宣告。
5Behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will raise to David a righteous Branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
5“看哪！日子快到（这是耶和华的宣告），我必给大卫兴起一个公义的苗裔；他必执政为王，行事有智慧，在地上施行公正和公义。
6In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name by which he shall be called: Yahweh our righteousness.
6在他执政的日子，犹大必得救，以色列也必安然居住。人要称他的名字为‘耶和华我们的义’。”
7Therefore behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that they shall no more say, As Yahweh lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
7“因此，看哪！日子快到（这是耶和华的宣告），人不再指着那领以色列人从埃及地上来的永活的耶和华起誓，
8but, As Yahweh lives, who brought up and who led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries where I had driven them. They shall dwell in their own land.
8却要指着那领以色列家的后裔从北方之地、从他（“他”原文作“我”）把他们赶逐到的各地上来的、永活的耶和华起誓。他们就必住在自己的地方。”
9Concerning the prophets. My heart within me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine has overcome, because of Yahweh, and because of his holy words.
9假先知的罪恶及报应论到那些先知，我的心在我里面破碎，我全身的骨头都发抖。因为耶和华的缘故，又因为他的圣言的缘故，我就像一个醉酒的人，像一个被酒灌醉的人。
10For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourns; the pastures of the wilderness are dried up. Their course is evil, and their might is not right;
10因为这地满了行淫的人；因受咒诅，地就悲哀，旷野的草场都枯干了；他们走的路是邪恶的，他们的权力误用了。
11for both prophet and priest are profane; yes, in my house have I found their wickedness, says Yahweh.
11“先知和祭司都不敬虔，甚至在我殿里我也看见他们的邪恶。”这是耶和华的宣告。
12Therefore their way shall be to them as slippery places in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein; for I will bring evil on them, even the year of their visitation, says Yahweh.
12“因此，他们的路必像滑地；他们必被赶逐到黑暗中，必在那里仆倒。因为到了惩罚他们的年日，我必使灾祸临到他们。”这是耶和华的宣告。
13I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
13“在撒玛利亚的先知中，我看见可厌的事：他们竟奉巴力的名说预言，使我的子民以色列走错了路。
14In the prophets of Jerusalem also I have seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies; and they strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that none does return from his wickedness: they are all of them become to me as Sodom, and its inhabitants as Gomorrah.
14在耶路撒冷的先知中，我看见可怕的事。他们犯奸淫，行事虚假，坚固恶人的手，以致没有人离弃恶行；在我看来，他们都像所多玛人，耶路撒冷的居民也像蛾摩拉人一样。”
15Therefore thus says Yahweh of Armies concerning the prophets: Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall; for from the prophets of Jerusalem is ungodliness gone forth into all the land.
15因此，论到这些先知，万军之耶和华这样说：“看哪！我必使他们吃苦堇，喝毒水，因为有不敬虔的风气，从耶路撒冷的先知中散播出来，遍及全地。”
16Thus says Yahweh of Armies, Don’t listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you: they teach you vanity; they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of Yahweh.
16万军之耶和华这样说：“不要听从这些向你们说预言的先知所说的话，他们使你们存有虚幻的希望；他们所讲的异象是出于自己的心思，不是出于耶和华的口。
17They say continually to those who despise me, Yahweh has said, You shall have peace; and to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, No evil shall come on you.
17他们不断对那些藐视我的人说：‘耶和华说：你们必平安无事！’又对所有随从自己顽梗的心行事的人说：‘灾祸必不临到你们！’”
18For who has stood in the council of Yahweh, that he should perceive and hear his word? who has marked my word, and heard it?
18可是他们中间有谁曾参与耶和华的议会，看见或听见他的话呢？有谁曾留心听他的话而实在听见呢？
19Behold, the storm of Yahweh, his wrath, has gone forth. Yes, a whirling storm. It shall burst on the head of the wicked.
19看哪！耶和华的旋风，在震怒中发出，是旋转的狂风，必卷到恶人的头上。
20The anger of Yahweh shall not return, until he has executed, and until he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days you shall understand it perfectly.
20耶和华的怒气必不转消，直到他作成和实现他心中的计划。在末后的日子，你们就会完全明白这事。
21I sent not these prophets, yet they ran: I didn’t speak to them, yet they prophesied.
21“我没有差派这些先知，但他们自己到处跑；我没有对他们说话，他们竟擅自说预言。
22But if they had stood in my council, then had they caused my people to hear my words, and had turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
22如果他们曾参与我的议会，就必向我的子民宣告我的信息，使他们转离他们的恶道，离开他们的恶行。
23Am I a God at hand, says Yahweh, and not a God afar off?
23难道我只是近处的 神吗？不也是远处的 神吗？”这是耶和华的宣告。
24Can any hide himself in secret places so that I shall not see him? says Yahweh. Don’t I fill heaven and earth? says Yahweh.
24“人怎能躲藏在隐密处，以致我看不见他呢？（这是耶和华的宣告）。我岂不是充满天地吗？”这是耶和华的宣告。
25I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
25“那些先知所说的话我都听见了，他们冒我的名说虚假的预言：‘我作了梦！我作了梦！’
26How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
26那些先知心里存着这样的意念要到几时呢？他们说虚假的预言，说出自己心中的诡诈；
27who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name for Baal.
27他们以为借着互相传述自己的梦，就可以使我的子民忘记我的名，好像他们的列祖因巴力忘记了我的名一样。
28The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he who has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? says Yahweh.
28作了梦的先知，让他把梦述说出来；但得了我话语的先知，该忠实地传讲我的话。禾秆怎能和麦子相比呢？”这是耶和华的宣告。
29Isn’t my word like fire? says Yahweh; and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?
29“我的话不是像火，不是像能打碎岩石的大锤吗？”这是耶和华的宣告。
30Therefore behold, I am against the prophets, says Yahweh, who steal my words everyone from his neighbor.
30“所以，看哪！那些先知互相偷取对方的话，当作我的话，我要对付他们。”这是耶和华的宣告。
31Behold, I am against the prophets, says Yahweh, who use their tongues, and say, He says.
31“看哪！那些先知用自己的舌头说：‘这是耶和华的宣告’，我要对付他们。”这是耶和华的宣告。
32Behold, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, says Yahweh, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting: yet I didn’t send them, nor commanded them; neither do they profit this people at all, says Yahweh.
32“看哪！那些借虚假的梦说预言的，我要对付他们。”这是耶和华的宣告。”他们述说这些梦，以虚谎和夸张的话使我的子民走错了路。我没有差派他们，也没有吩咐他们；他们对这人民毫无益处。”这是耶和华的宣告。
33When this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask you, saying, What is the burden of Yahweh? Then you shall tell them, What burden! I will cast you off, says Yahweh.
33耶和华的默示“如果这人民、或先知、或祭司问你说：‘耶和华有什么默示呢？’你要回答他们：‘你们就是重担（“你们就是重担”按照《马索拉抄本》应作：“什么默示？”现参照《七十士译本》翻译。“重担”和“默示”原文是同一个字），我要丢弃你们。’”这是耶和华的宣告。
34As for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, who shall say, The burden of Yahweh, I will even punish that man and his house.
34“无论是先知、是祭司，或是人民，凡说‘这是耶和华的默示’的，我都要惩罚那人和他的家。”
35You shall say everyone to his neighbor, and everyone to his brother, What has Yahweh answered? and, What has Yahweh spoken?
35你们各人对自己的邻舍，对自己的兄弟要这样说：“耶和华回答了什么？耶和华说了什么？”
36You shall mention the burden of Yahweh no more: for every man’s own word shall be his burden; for you have perverted the words of the living God, of Yahweh of Armies our God.
36你们不可再提耶和华的默示，你们各人所说的话将成为自己的重担；因为你们曲解永活的 神万军之耶和华我们 神的话了。
37You shall say to the prophet, What has Yahweh answered you? and, What has Yahweh spoken?
37你们要对 神的先知（“你们要对 神的先知”或译：“耶利米啊，你要对那些先知”）说：“耶和华回答了你什么？耶和华说了什么呢？”
38But if you say, The burden of Yahweh; therefore thus says Yahweh: Because you say this word, The burden of Yahweh, and I have sent to you, saying, You shall not say, The burden of Yahweh;
38如果你们仍说：“这是耶和华的默示”，耶和华就必这样说：“你们既然说‘这是耶和华的默示’这句话，而我又曾差派人去告诉你们不可再说‘这是耶和华的默示’；
39therefore, behold, I will utterly forget you, and I will cast you off, and the city that I gave to you and to your fathers, away from my presence:
39因此，看哪！我必把你们当作重担举起来（“我必把你们当作重担举起来”或译：“我必定忘记你们”），把你们连同我赐给你们和你们列祖的城都从我面前丢弃。
40and I will bring an everlasting reproach on you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.
40我必使你们蒙受永远的凌辱、永远的羞耻，是不能忘记的。”
