1黄金何其！纯金何其变色！圣所的石头倒在各市口上。How the gold has become tarnished, the pure gold has become dull! The gems of the temple lie scattered on every street corner.
2锡安宝贵的众子好比精金，现在何竟算为窑匠手所做的瓦瓶？How the precious sons of Zion, once worth their weight in pure gold, are now esteemed as jars of clay, the work of a potter’s hands!
3野狗尚且把奶乳哺其子，我民的妇人倒成为残忍，好像旷野的一般。Even jackals offer their breasts to nurse their young, but the daughter of my people has become cruel, like an ostrich in the wilderness.
4吃奶孩子的舌头因干渴贴住；孩童求饼，无人擘给他们。The nursing infant’s tongue clings in thirst to the roof of his mouth. Little children beg for bread, but no one gives them any.
5素来吃美好食物的，现今在街上变为；素来卧朱红褥子的，现今躺卧粪堆。Those who once ate delicacies are destitute in the streets; those brought up in crimson huddle in ash heaps.
6都因我众民的罪孽比的罪还大；所多玛虽然无人加手于她，还是转眼之间被倾覆。The punishment of the daughter of my people is greater than that of Sodom, which was overthrown in an instant without a hand turned to help her.
7锡安的贵胄素来比雪纯净，比奶更白；他们的身体比（或译：珊瑚）更红，像光润的蓝宝石一样。Her dignitaries were brighter than snow, whiter than milk; their bodies were more ruddy than rubies, their appearance like sapphires.
8现在他们的面貌比煤炭更黑，以致在街上无人认识；他们的皮肤紧贴骨头，枯干如同。But now their appearance is blacker than soot; they are not recognized in the streets. Their skin has shriveled on their bones; it has become as dry as a stick.
9饿死的不如被刀杀的，因为这是缺了田间的土产，就身体衰弱，渐渐消灭。Those slain by the sword are better off than those who die of hunger, who waste away, pierced with pain because the fields lack produce.
10慈心的妇人，当我众民被毁灭的时候，亲手煮自己的儿女作为食物。The hands of compassionate women have cooked their own children, who became their food in the destruction of the daughter of my people.
11耶和华发怒成就他所定的，倒出他的烈怒；在锡安使火着起，烧毁锡安的根基。The LORD has exhausted His wrath; He has poured out His fierce anger; He has kindled a fire in Zion, and it has consumed her foundations.
12地上的君王和世上的居民都不信敌人和仇敌能进耶路撒冷的城门。The kings of the earth did not believe, nor any people of the world, that an enemy or a foe could enter the gates of Jerusalem.
13这都因她先知的罪恶和祭司的罪孽；他们在城中流了义人的血。But this was for the sins of her prophets and the guilt of her priests, who shed the blood of the righteous in her midst.
14他们在街上如瞎子乱走，又被血玷污，以致人不能摸他们的衣服。They wandered blind in the streets, defiled by this blood, so that no one dared to touch their garments.
15人向他们喊着说：不洁净的，，躲开！不要挨近我！他们逃走飘流的时候，列国中有人说：他们不可仍在这里寄居。“Go away! Unclean!” men shouted at them. “Away, away! Do not touch us!” So they fled and wandered. Among the nations it was said, “They can stay here no longer.”
16耶和华发怒，将他们分散，不再眷顾他们；人不重看祭司，也不厚待长老。The presence of the LORD has scattered them; He regards them no more. The priests are shown no honor; the elders find no favor.
17我们仰望人来帮助，以致眼目失明，还是枉然；我们所盼望的，竟盼望一个不能救人的国！All the while our eyes were failing as we looked in vain for help. We watched from our towers for a nation that could not save us.
18仇敌追赶我们的脚步像打猎的，以致我们不敢在自己的街上行走。我们的结局临近；我们的日子满足；我们的结局来到了。They stalked our every step, so that we could not walk in our streets. Our end drew near, our time ran out, for our end had come!
19追赶我们的比空中的鹰更快；他们在山上追逼我们，在旷野埋伏，等候我们。Those who chased us were swifter than the eagles in the sky; they pursued us over the mountains and ambushed us in the wilderness.
20好比我们鼻中的气，在他们的坑中被捉住；我们曾论到他说：我们必在他荫下，在列国中存活。The LORD’s anointed, the breath of our life, was captured in their pits. We had said of him, “Under his shadow we will live among the nations.”
21住地的以东民哪，只管欢喜快乐；也必传到你那里；你必喝醉，以致露体。So rejoice and be glad, O Daughter of Edom, you who dwell in the land of Uz. Yet the cup will pass to you as well; you will get drunk and expose yourself.
22锡安的民哪，你罪孽的刑罚受足了，耶和华必不使你再被掳去。以东的民哪，他必追讨你的罪孽，显露你的罪恶。O Daughter of Zion, your punishment is complete; He will not prolong your exile. But He will punish your iniquity, O Daughter of Edom; He will expose your sins.
