弥迦书 2现代标点和合本 1919 | Micah 2King James Version 1769 |
|---|---|
严责恶人肆行欺虐必受灾祸 | Strictly condemn evil people who commit wanton abuse and will suffer disaster |
1祸哉，那些在床上图谋罪孽、造做奸恶的！天一发亮，因手有能力就行出来了。 | 1Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand. |
2他们贪图田地就占据，贪图房屋便夺取。他们欺压人，霸占房屋和产业。 | 2And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage. |
3所以耶和华如此说：“我筹划灾祸降于这族，这祸在你们的颈项上不能解脱，你们也不能昂首而行，因为这时势是恶的。 | 3Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time is evil. |
人必为之作讽词发哀歌 | |
4“到那日，必有人向你们提起悲惨的哀歌，讥刺说：‘我们全然败落了！耶和华将我们的份转归别人。何竟使这份离开我们？他将我们的田地分给悖逆的人。’ | 4In that day shall one take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, and say, We be utterly spoiled: he hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he removed it from me! turning away he hath divided our fields. |
5所以在耶和华的会中，你必没有人拈阄拉准绳。 | 5Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the LORD. |
责其多行强暴 | The People Rebuked for Their Violence |
6“他们说：‘你们不可说预言！不可向这些人说预言，不住地羞辱我们。’ | 6Prophesy ye not, say they to them that prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame. |
7雅各家啊，岂可说耶和华的心不忍耐吗？这些事是他所行的吗？我耶和华的言语，岂不是与行动正直的人有益吗？ | 7O thou that art named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the LORD straitened? are these his doings? do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly? |
8然而近来我的民兴起如仇敌，从那些安然经过不愿打仗之人身上剥去外衣。 | 8Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war. |
9你们将我民中的妇人从安乐家中赶出，又将我的荣耀从她们的小孩子尽行夺去。 | 9The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory for ever. |
10你们起来去吧！这不是你们安息之所。因为污秽使人毁灭，而且大大毁灭。 | 10Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction. |
11若有人心存虚假，用谎言说 ‘我要向你们预言得清酒和浓酒’，那人就必做这民的先知！ | 11If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people. |
许雅各蒙恩旋返如羊归牢 | |
12“雅各家啊，我必要聚集你们，必要招聚以色列剩下的人，安置在一处，如波斯拉的羊，又如草场上的羊群。因为人数众多，就必大大喧哗。 | 12I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as the flock in the midst of their fold: they shall make great noise by reason of the multitude of men. |
13开路的在他们前面上去，他们直闯过城门，从城门出去。他们的王在前面行，耶和华引导他们。” | 13The breaker is come up before them: they have broken up, and have passed through the gate, and are gone out by it: and their king shall pass before them, and the LORD on the head of them. |
