约珥书-Joel 第 3 章

3:1当那些日子,我使犹大和耶路撒冷被掳之人归回的时候,
For indeed, in those days and at that time When I turn the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
3:2我要聚集万民,带他们下到约沙法谷;为了我的百姓,就是我的产业以色列,我要在那里审判他们,因为他们把我的百姓分散在列国中,又分取我的地土;
I will gather all the nations And will bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat; And I will enter into judgment with them there Because of My people and My inheritance Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations. And they have divided My land
3:3且为我的百姓拈阄,将童男换妓女,卖童女买酒喝。
And have cast lots for My people; And they have given a boy for a prostitute And sold a girl for wine to drink.
3:4推罗、西顿、和非利士全境的人哪,你们与我何干?你们要把应得的报应回报给我么?若回报给我,我必使报应速速归到你们的头上。
Indeed then, what are you to me, Tyre and Sidon And all the regions of Philistia? Will you repay Me with a recompense? But if you recompense Me, Swiftly, speedily, I will return your recompense upon your own head.
3:5你们既然夺取我的金银,又将我美好的宝物带入你们庙中,
In that you have taken My silver and My gold, And have brought My fine precious things into your temples,
3:6并将犹大人和耶路撒冷人,卖给雅完人,赶逐他们远离自己的境界;
And have sold to the children of the Javanim The children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem, In order to remove them Away from their borders;
3:7我必激动他们离开你们所卖到之地,又必使报应归到你们的头上。
I will rouse them out of the place To which you have sold them, And will return your recompense upon your own head.
3:8我必将你们的儿女卖在犹大人的手中,他们必卖给远方示巴国的人;因为耶和华已经说了。
And I will sell your sons and your daughters Into the hand of the children of Judah, And they will sell them to the Sabeans, To a nation that is far off, For Jehovah has spoken.
3:9当在列国中宣告这话,说,要预备打仗;激动勇士;一切战士都要近前,都要上去。
Proclaim this among the nations: Prepare the battle; Rouse the mighty men; Let all the men of battle Draw near; let them go up.
3:10要将犁头打成刀剑,将镰刀打成戈矛;软弱的要说,我有勇力。
Beat your plowshares into swords, And your pruning knives into spears; Let the weak say, I am mighty.
3:11四围的列国阿,你们要速速的来,一同聚集。耶和华阿,求你使你的大能者在那里降临!
Hurry and come, All you surrounding nations, And be gathered. There cause Your mighty ones to descend, O Jehovah!
3:12列国都当兴起,上到约沙法谷。因为我必坐在那里,审判四围的列国。
Let the nations rouse themselves and come up To the valley of Jehoshaphat. For there I will sit to judge All the surrounding nations.
3:13伸出镰刀罢,因为庄稼熟了;前来践踏罢,因为酒榨满了;酒池盈溢,因为他们的罪恶甚大。
Send forth the sickle, For the harvest is ripe; Come, tread, For the winepress is full; The wine vats overflow, For their evil is great.
3:14许多许多的人在断定谷;因为耶和华的日子临近断定谷。
Multitudes, multitudes, In the valley of decision; For the day of Jehovah has drawn near In the valley of decision.
3:15日月昏暗,星宿无光。
The sun and the moon grow dark, And the stars withdraw their shining.
3:16耶和华必从锡安吼叫,从耶路撒冷发声,天地就震动。耶和华却要作祂百姓的避难所,作以色列人的保障。
And Jehovah will roar from Zion, And from Jerusalem He will utter His voice, And the heavens and the earth will shake. But Jehovah will be a shelter to His people And a stronghold to the children of Israel.
3:17你们就知道我是耶和华你们的神,住在锡安我的圣山。那时,耶路撒冷必成为圣,外人不再从其中经过。
Thus you will know that I am Jehovah your God, Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain. And Jerusalem will be holy, And strangers will pass through her no longer.
3:18到那日,大山要滴新酒,小山要流奶;犹大一切的溪河都有水流,必有泉源从耶和华的殿中流出来,浇灌什亭谷。
And in that day The mountains will drop down fresh wine, And the hills will flow with milk; And all the waterways of Judah Will flow with water, And a fountain will go forth from the house of Jehovah, And it will water the valley of Shittim.
3:19埃及必然荒凉,以东变为荒凉的旷野,都因向犹大人所行的强暴,因他们在本地流了无辜人的血。
Egypt will be a desolation, And Edom will be a desolate wilderness, Because of the violence against the children of Judah, In that they have shed innocent blood in their land.
3:20但犹大必有人居住,直到永远;耶路撒冷必有人居住,直到万代。
But Judah will abide forever, And Jerusalem, from generation to generation;
3:21我未曾赦免他们流血的罪,现在我要赦免,因为耶和华住在锡安。
And I will acquit them of their bloodshed that I had not acquitted them of, For Jehovah dwells in Zion.
