¹The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,

¹预言以色列必归故土

²Thus speaks Yahweh, the God of Israel, saying, Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book.

²“耶和华以色列的　神这样说：‘你要把我对你说过的一切话都写在书上。

³For, behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, says Yahweh; and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.

³看哪！日子快到（这是耶和华的宣告），我必使我的子民以色列和犹大被掳的人归回。’耶和华说：‘我必使他们回到我赐给他们列祖之地，他们要重得这地为业。’”

⁴These are the words that Yahweh spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.

⁴以下是耶和华论到以色列和犹大所说的话：

⁵For thus says Yahweh: We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.

⁵“耶和华这样说：‘我听见了战栗喊叫的声音，一片恐慌，没有平安。

⁶Ask now, and see whether a man does travail with child: why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?

⁶你们去问问，去看看：男人会生孩子吗？为什么我看见所有的壮汉，都用手抱着腹部，像正在生产的妇人，每张脸都变成苍白呢？

⁷Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.

⁷哀哉！那日大而可畏，无可比拟；这是雅各受苦的时期，但他必被救出来。’”

⁸It shall come to pass in that day, says Yahweh of Armies, that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds; and strangers shall no more make him their bondservant;

⁸“万军之耶和华宣告说：‘当那日，我必从他们（“他们”按照《马索拉抄本》应作“你”；现参照《七十士译本》翻译）的颈项上折断仇敌的轭，扯断他们（“他们”按照《马索拉抄本》应作“你”；现参照《七十士译本》翻译）的绳套；他们必不再作外族人的奴隶。

⁹but they shall serve Yahweh their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.

⁹他们却要事奉耶和华他们的　神，和我为他们兴起的大卫王。

¹⁰Therefore don’t you be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says Yahweh; neither be dismayed, Israel: for, behold, I will save you from afar, and your seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.

¹⁰所以，我的仆人雅各啊！你不要惧怕。’这是耶和华的宣告。’以色列啊！你不要惊慌。因为我必拯救你从远方回来，必拯救你的后裔脱离他们被掳之地。雅各必归回，得享平静安逸，没有人可以使他害怕。

¹¹For I am with you, says Yahweh, to save you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.

¹¹因为我与你同在，要拯救你；我要消灭我赶散你去的列国，却必不消灭你。我要按公正惩治你，决不能免你受罚。’”这是耶和华的宣告。

¹²For thus says Yahweh, Your hurt is incurable, and your wound grievous.

¹²“耶和华这样说：‘你的损伤无法痊愈，你的创伤不能医治。

¹³There is none to plead your cause, that you may be bound up: you have no healing medicines.

¹³没有人为你申诉，你的伤处无药可救，你不得医治。

¹⁴All your lovers have forgotten you; they don’t seek you: for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased.

¹⁴你所有的盟友都忘记了你，不再关心你；我击打了你，好像仇敌击打你，又好像残暴的人惩罚你一样；都因你的罪孽甚多，你的罪恶无数。

¹⁵Why do you cry for your hurt? Your pain is incurable: for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased, I have done these things to you.

¹⁵你为什么因你的损伤哀叫呢？你的病痛无法痊愈。我这样对你，是因你的罪孽甚多，你的罪恶无数。

¹⁶Therefore all those who devour you shall be devoured; and all your adversaries, everyone of them, shall go into captivity; and those who despoil you shall be a spoil, and all who prey on you will I give for a prey.

¹⁶但是，吞吃你的，必被吞吃；你所有的敌人全都要被掳走；抢掠你的，必成为被抢掠之物；掠夺你的，我必使他们成为被掠夺之物。

¹⁷For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh; because they have called you an outcast, saying, It is Zion, whom no man seeks after.

¹⁷虽然人都说你是被放逐的，是没有人关心的锡安；我却必使你康复，医治你的创伤。’”这是耶和华的宣告。

¹⁸Thus says Yahweh: Behold, I will turn again the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places; and the city shall be built on its own hill, and the palace shall be inhabited in its own way.

¹⁸“耶和华这样说：‘看哪！我必复兴雅各的帐棚，也必怜悯他的居所；城市必在废墟上重建，堡垒必立在原来的地点上。

¹⁹Out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of those who make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.

¹⁹必有感谢的歌声，和欢笑的声音从其中发出来。我必使他们人数增多，不会减少；我必使他们得尊荣，不再被人轻看。

²⁰Their children also shall be as before, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all who oppress them.

²⁰他们的子孙必像以前一样蒙恩，他们的国家必在我面前坚立；我必惩罚所有压迫他们的人。

²¹Their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from their midst; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach to me: for who is he who has had boldness to approach to me? says Yahweh.

²¹恶人受罚他们的元首必是他们自己的人，他们的统治者必出自他们中间；我必使他近前来，他也必亲近我，不然，谁敢冒生命的危险来亲近我呢？’这是耶和华的宣告。

²²You shall be my people, and I will be your God.

²²‘你们要作我的子民，我要作你们的　神。’”

²³Behold, the storm of Yahweh, his wrath, has gone forth, a sweeping storm: it shall burst on the head of the wicked.

²³看哪！耶和华的旋风，在震怒中发出，是横扫的狂风，必卷到恶人的头上。

²⁴The fierce anger of Yahweh will not return, until he has executed, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it.

²⁴耶和华的烈怒必不转消，直到他作成和实现他心中的计划。在末后的日子，你们就会明白这事。
