1我要站在，立在望楼上观看，看耶和华对我说什么话，我可用什么话向他诉冤（向他诉冤：或译回答所疑问的）。I will stand at my guard post and station myself on the ramparts. I will watch to see what He will say to me, and how I should answer when corrected.
2他对我说：将这默示明明地写在版上，使读的人容易读（或译：随跑随读）。Then the LORD answered me: “Write down this vision and clearly inscribe it on tablets, so that a herald may run with it.
3因为这默示有一定的日期，快要应验，并不虚谎。虽然，还要等候；因为必然临到，不再迟延。For the vision awaits an appointed time; it testifies of the end and does not lie. Though it lingers, wait for it, since it will surely come and will not delay.
4迦勒底人自高自大，心不正直；惟义人。Look at the proud one; his soul is not upright—but the righteous will live by faith—
5迦勒底人因酒诡诈，狂傲，不住在家中，扩充心欲，好像阴间。他如死不能知足，聚集万国，堆积万民都归自己。and wealth indeed betrays him. He is an arrogant man never at rest. He enlarges his appetite like Sheol, and like Death, he is never satisfied. He gathers all the nations to himself and collects all the peoples as his own.
6这些国的民岂不都要提起诗歌并俗语讥刺他说：祸哉！迦勒底人，你增添不属自己的财物，多多取人的，要到几时为止呢？Will not all of these take up a taunt against him, speaking with mockery and derision: ‘Woe to him who amasses what is not his and makes himself rich with many loans! How long will this go on?’
7咬伤你的岂不忽然起来，扰害你的岂不兴起，你就作他们的掳物吗？Will not your creditors suddenly arise and those who disturb you awaken? Then you will become their prey.
8因你抢夺许多的国，杀人流血，向国内的城并城中一切居民施行强暴，所以各国剩下的民都必抢夺你。Because you have plundered many nations, the remnant of the people will plunder you—because of your bloodshed against man and your violence against the land, the city, and all their dwellers.
9为本家积蓄不义之财、在高处搭窝、指望免灾的有祸了！Woe to him who builds his house by unjust gain, to place his nest on high and escape the hand of disaster!
10你图谋剪除多国的民，犯了罪，使你的家蒙羞，自害己命。You have plotted shame for your house by cutting off many peoples and forfeiting your life.
11墙里的石头必呼叫；房内的栋梁必应声。For the stones will cry out from the wall, and the rafters will echo it from the woodwork.
12以人血建城、以罪孽立邑的有祸了！Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and establishes a town by iniquity!
13众民所劳碌得来的被火焚烧，列国由劳乏而得的归于虚空，不都是出于万军之耶和华吗？Is it not indeed from the LORD of Hosts that the labor of the people only feeds the fire, and the nations weary themselves in vain?
14认识耶和华荣耀的知识要充满遍地，好像水充满洋海一般。For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.
15给人酒喝、又加上毒物、使他喝醉、好看见他下体的有祸了！Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors, pouring it from the wineskin until they are drunk, in order to gaze at their nakedness!
16你满受羞辱，不得荣耀；你也喝吧，显出是！耶和华右手的杯必传到你那里；你的荣耀就变为大大地羞辱。You will be filled with shame instead of glory. You too must drink and expose your uncircumcision! The cup in the LORD’s right hand will come around to you, and utter disgrace will cover your glory.
17你向黎巴嫩行强暴与残害惊吓野兽的事必遮盖你；因你杀人流血，向国内的城并城中一切居民施行强暴。For your violence against Lebanon will overwhelm you, and the destruction of animals will terrify you, because of your bloodshed against men and your violence against the land, the city, and all their dwellers.
18雕刻的偶像，人将它刻出来，有什么益处呢？铸造的偶像就是虚谎的师傅。制造者倚靠这哑巴偶像有什么益处呢？What use is an idol, that a craftsman should carve it—or an image, a teacher of lies? For its maker trusts in his own creation; he makes idols that cannot speak.
19对木偶说：醒起！对哑巴石像说：起来！那人有祸了！这个还能教训人吗？看哪，是包裹金银的，其中毫无气息。Woe to him who says to wood, ‘Awake!’ or to silent stone, ‘Arise!’ Can it give guidance? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, yet there is no breath in it at all.”
20惟耶和华在他的圣殿中；全地的人都当在他面前肃敬静默。But the LORD is in His holy temple; let all the earth be silent before Him.
