彌迦書-Micah 第 3 章

3:1我說,雅各的首領,以色列家的官長阿,你們要聽:你們不當知道公平麼?
And I said, Hear now, you heads of Jacob And you rulers of the house of Israel: Is it not for you To know justice?
3:2你們恨惡良善,喜愛邪惡;從人身上剝皮,從人骨頭上剔肉;
You who hate good And love evil, You who tear away their skin from off them And their flesh from off their bones,
3:3吃我民的肉,剝他們的皮;打折他們的骨頭,分成塊子像要下鍋,又像釜中的肉。
And who devour the flesh of My people And strip off their skin from off them And break their bones in pieces And chop them as for the pot And like meat in a cauldron.
3:4那時這些人必哀求耶和華,祂卻不應允他們;那時祂必照他們所行的惡事,向他們掩面。
Then they will cry out to Jehovah, But He will not answer them; Indeed He will hide His face from them at that time, Just as they were evil in their doings.
3:5論到使我民走錯路的申言者,他們牙齒有所嚼的時候,就喊叫說,平安了;若有人不給他們口中有可吃的,他們就預備與他爭戰;耶和華如此說,
Thus says Jehovah concerning the prophets Who cause My people to err, Who, when they have something to bite with their teeth, Cry, Peace, But if there is one who does not give something for their mouths, They prepare for war against him.
3:6所以你們必遭遇黑夜,沒有異象;又必遭遇幽暗,不能佔卜。日頭必向申言者沉落,白晝必在他們身上變為黑暗。
Therefore there will be night to you, without vision, And darkness to you, without divination. And the sun will go down on the prophets, And the day will be black over them.
3:7先見必抱愧,占卜的必蒙羞,都必捂 嘴唇,因為沒有從神來的答覆。
And the seers will be put to shame, And the diviners will be ashamed; And they will all cover their mouths, For there will be no answer from God.
3:8至於我,我藉耶和華的靈,滿有力量、公平和能力,可以向雅各說明他的過犯,向以色列指出他的罪。
But as for me, I am full Of power, with the Spirit of Jehovah, and of justice and might, To declare to Jacob his transgression And to Israel his sin.
3:9雅各家的首領,以色列家的官長阿,當聽這話:你們厭惡公平,屈枉一切正直;
Hear now this, you heads of the house of Jacob And you rulers of the house of Israel: You who abhor justice And pervert all uprightness,
3:10藉流人血建立錫安,以罪孽建造耶路撒冷。
Who build Zion by bloodshed And Jerusalem by iniquity.
3:11城中的首領為賄賂行審判,祭司為雇價施教訓,申言者為銀錢行占卜;他們卻信靠耶和華,說,耶和華不是在我們中間麼?災禍必不臨到我們。
Her leaders judge for a bribe, And her priests teach for hire, And her prophets divine for money; But they lean on Jehovah, saying, Is not Jehovah in our midst? Evil will not come upon us.
3:12所以因你們的緣故,錫安必被耕種像田地,耶路撒冷必成為亂堆,這殿的山必成為叢林的高岡。
Therefore on account of you Zion will be plowed as a field, And Jerusalem will become a heap of ruins, And the mountain of the house will become the high places of a forest.
