1祸哉!那些设立不义之律例的和记录奸诈之判语的,Woe to those who enact unjust statutes and issue oppressive decrees,

2为要屈枉穷乏人,夺去我民中困苦人的理,以寡妇当作掳物,以孤儿当作掠物。to deprive the poor of fair treatment and withhold justice from the oppressed of My people, to make widows their prey and orphans their plunder.

3到降罚的日子,有灾祸从远方临到,那时,你们怎样行呢?你们向谁逃奔求救呢?你们的荣耀(或译:财宝)存留何处呢?What will you do on the day of reckoning when devastation comes from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth?

4他们只得屈身在被掳的人以下,仆倒在被杀的人以下。虽然如此,耶和华的怒气还未转消;他的手仍伸不缩。Nothing will remain but to crouch among the captives or fall among the slain. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.

5亚述是我怒气的棍,手中拿我恼恨的杖。Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger; the staff in their hands is My wrath.

6我要打发他攻击亵渎的国民,吩咐他攻击我所恼怒的百姓,抢财为掳物,夺货为掠物,将他们践踏,像街上的泥土一样。I will send him against a godless nation; I will dispatch him against a people destined for My rage, to take spoils and seize plunder, and to trample them down like clay in the streets.

7然而,他不是这样的意思;他心也不这样打算。他心里倒想毁灭,剪除不少的国。But this is not his intention; this is not his plan. For it is in his heart to destroy and cut off many nations.

8他说:我的臣仆岂不都是王吗?“Are not all my commanders kings?” he says.

9迦勒挪岂不像吗?哈马岂不像亚珥拔吗?撒马利亚岂不像大马士革吗?“Is not Calno like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus?

10我手已经搆到有偶像的国;这些国雕刻的偶像过于耶路撒冷和撒马利亚的偶像。As my hand seized the idolatrous kingdoms whose images surpassed those of Jerusalem and Samaria,

11我怎样待撒马利亚和其中的偶像,岂不照样待耶路撒冷和其中的偶像吗?and as I have done to Samaria and its idols, will I not also do to Jerusalem and her idols?”

12主在锡安山和耶路撒冷成就他一切工作的时候,主说:“我必罚亚述王自大的心和他高傲眼目的荣耀。”So when the Lord has completed all His work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, He will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the fruit of his arrogant heart and the proud look in his eyes.

13因为他说:我所成就的事是靠我手的能力和我的智慧,我本有聪明。我挪移列国的地界,抢夺他们所积蓄的财宝;并且我像勇士,使坐宝座的降为卑。For he says: ‘By the strength of my hand I have done this, and by my wisdom, for I am clever. I have removed the boundaries of nations and plundered their treasures; like a mighty one I subdued their rulers.

14我的手搆到列国的财宝,好像人搆到鸟窝;我也得了全地,好像人拾起所弃的雀蛋。没有动翅膀的;没有张嘴的,也没有鸣叫的。My hand reached as into a nest to seize the wealth of the nations. Like one gathering abandoned eggs, I gathered all the earth. No wing fluttered, no beak opened or chirped.’”

15斧岂可向用斧砍木的自夸呢?锯岂可向用锯的自大呢?好比棍那举棍的,好比杖举起那非木的人。Does an axe raise itself above the one who swings it? Does a saw boast over him who saws with it? It would be like a rod waving the one who lifts it, or a staff lifting him who is not wood!

16因此,主—万军之耶和华必使亚述王的肥壮人变为瘦弱,在他的荣华之下必有火着起,如同焚烧一样。Therefore the Lord GOD of Hosts will send a wasting disease among Assyria’s stout warriors, and under his pomp will be kindled a fire like a burning flame.

17以色列的光必如火;他的圣者必如火焰。在一日之间,将亚述王的荆棘和蒺藜焚烧净尽;And the Light of Israel will become a fire, and its Holy One a flame. In a single day it will burn and devour Assyria’s thorns and thistles.

18又将他树林和肥田的荣耀全然烧尽,好像拿军旗的昏过去一样。The splendor of its forests and orchards, both soul and body, it will completely destroy, as a sickness consumes a man.

19他林中剩下的树必稀少,就是孩子也能写其数。The remaining trees of its forests will be so few that a child could count them.

20到那日,以色列所剩下的和雅各家所逃脱的,不再倚靠那击打他们的,却要诚实倚靠耶和华—以色列的圣者。On that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no longer depend on him who struck them, but they will truly rely on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel.

21所剩下的,就是雅各家所剩下的,必归回全能的 神。A remnant will return—a remnant of Jacob—to the Mighty God.

22以色列啊,你的百姓虽多如海沙,惟有剩下的归回。原来灭绝的事已定,必有公义施行,如水涨溢。Though your people, O Israel, be like the sand of the sea, only a remnant will return. Destruction has been decreed, overflowing with righteousness.

23因为主—万军之耶和华在全地之中必成就所定规的结局。For the Lord GOD of Hosts will carry out the destruction decreed upon the whole land.

24所以,主—万军之耶和华如此说:“住锡安我的百姓啊,亚述王虽然用棍击打你,又照埃及的样子举杖攻击你,你却不要怕他。Therefore this is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: “O My people who dwell in Zion, do not fear Assyria, who strikes you with a rod and lifts his staff against you as the Egyptians did.

25因为还有一点点时候,向你们发的忿恨就要完毕,我的怒气要向他发作,使他灭亡。For in just a little while My fury against you will subside, and My anger will turn to their destruction.”

26万军之耶和华要兴起鞭来攻击他,好像在那里杀戮米甸人一样。耶和华的杖要向海伸出,把杖举起,像在埃及一样。And the LORD of Hosts will brandish a whip against them, as when He struck Midian at the rock of Oreb. He will raise His staff over the sea, as He did in Egypt.

27到那日,亚述王的重担必离开你的肩头;他的轭必离开你的颈项;那轭也必因肥壮的缘故撑断(或译:因膏油的缘故毁坏)。”On that day the burden will be lifted from your shoulders, and the yoke from your neck. The yoke will be broken because your neck will be too large.

28亚述王来到亚叶,经过米矶仑,在密抹安放。Assyria has entered Aiath and passed through Migron, storing their supplies at Michmash.

29他们过了,在迦巴住宿。拉玛人战兢;扫罗的人逃跑。They have crossed at the ford: “We will spend the night at Geba.” Ramah trembles; Gibeah of Saul flees.

30迦琳的居民(原文是女子)哪,要高声呼喊!莱煞人哪,须听!哀哉!困苦的亚拿突啊。Cry aloud, O Daughter of Gallim! Listen, O Laishah! O wretched Anathoth!

31玛得米那人躲避;基柄的居民逃遁。Madmenah flees; the people of Gebim take refuge.

32当那日,亚述王要在挪伯歇兵,向锡安女子的山—就是耶路撒冷的山—抡手攻他。Yet today they will halt at Nob, shaking a fist at the mount of Daughter Zion, at the hill of Jerusalem.

33看哪,主—万军之耶和华以惊吓削去树枝;长高的必被砍下,高大的必被伐倒。Behold, the Lord GOD of Hosts will lop off the branches with terrifying power. The tall trees will be cut down, the lofty ones will be felled.

34稠密的树林,他要用铁器砍下;黎巴嫩的树木必被大能者伐倒。He will clear the forest thickets with an axe, and Lebanon will fall before the Mighty One.
