耶7:1 耶和华有话临到耶利米，说：
耶7:1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
耶7:2 “你要站在耶和华的殿门口，在那里宣告这话，说：‘所有进这些门来敬拜耶和华的犹大人哪！你们都要听耶和华的话。’”
耶7:2 Take your place in the doorway of the Lord's house, and give out this word there, and say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who come inside these doors to give worship to the Lord.
耶7:3 万军之耶和华以色列的 神这样说：“你们要改正自己的所作所为，我就让你们在这地方居住。
耶7:3 The Lord of armies, the God of Israel, says, Let your ways and your doings be changed for the better and I will let you go on living in this place.
耶7:4 你们不要倚靠虚谎的话，说：‘这是耶和华的殿，是耶和华的殿，是耶和华的殿。’
耶7:4 Put no faith in false words, saying, The Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord, are these.
耶7:5 如果你们实在改正自己的所作所为，人与人之间认真施行公正；
耶7:5 For if your ways and your doings are truly changed for the better; if you truly give right decisions between a man and his neighbour;
耶7:6 如果你们不欺压寄居的，不欺压孤儿寡妇，不在这地方流无辜人的血，也不跟从别的神，自招祸患；
耶7:6 If you are not cruel to the man from a strange country, and to the child without a father, and to the widow, and do not put the upright to death in this place, or go after other gods, causing damage to yourselves:
耶7:7 我就让你们在赐给你们列祖直到永远的这地方居住。
耶7:7 Then I will let you go on living in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers in the past and for ever.
耶7:8 “可是，你们竟然倚靠虚谎无益的话。
耶7:8 See, you put your faith in false words which are of no profit.
耶7:9 你们怎可偷盗、凶杀、奸淫、起假誓、向巴力烧香，跟从你们素不认识的别神，
耶7:9 Will you take the goods of others, put men to death, and be untrue to your wives, and take false oaths, and have perfumes burned to the Baal, and go after other gods which are strange to you;
耶7:10 然后来到这称为我名下的殿，站在我面前，说：‘我们安全啦！’你们这样就可以行这一切可憎的事吗？
耶7:10 And come and take your place before me in this house, which is named by my name, and say, We have been made safe; so that you may do all these disgusting things?
耶7:11 这称为我名下的殿，难道在你们眼中看为贼窝吗？但我都看见了。”这是耶和华的宣告。
耶7:11 Has this house, which is named by my name, become a hole of thieves to you? Truly I, even I, have seen it, says the Lord.
耶7:12 “你们可以到示罗我的地方去，就是先前我名的居所，看看我因我子民以色列的邪恶，对那地方所行的。
耶7:12 But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I put my name at first, and see what I did to it because of the evil-doing of my people Israel.
耶7:13 现在，因你们行了这一切事，我不断恳切告诫你们，你们却不听；我呼唤你们，你们却不答话。”这是耶和华的宣告。
耶7:13 And now, because you have done all these works, says the Lord, and I sent my word to you, getting up early and sending, but you did not give ear; and my voice came to you, but you gave no answer:
耶7:14 “所以我从前怎样对待示罗，将来也怎样对待你们所倚靠的那称为我名下的殿，以及我赐给你们和你们列祖的地方。
耶7:14 For this reason I will do to the house which is named by my name, and in which you have put your faith, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.
耶7:15 我必把你们从我面前赶出，像我从前赶出你们的众兄弟，以法莲所有的后裔一样。
耶7:15 And I will send you away from before my face, as I have sent away all your brothers, even all the seed of Ephraim.
耶7:16 “至于你，不要为这人民祈祷，不要为他们呼求祷告，也不要为他们向我恳求，因为我不会听你。
耶7:16 And as for you (Jeremiah), make no prayers for this people, send up no cry or prayer for them, make no request for them to me: for I will not give ear.
耶7:17 他们在犹大的各城中，在耶路撒冷的街道上所行的，你没有看见吗？
耶7:17 Do you not see what they are doing in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
耶7:18 儿子捡柴，父亲生火，妇女抟面，为天后做饼，又向别的神浇奠祭，惹我发怒。
耶7:18 The children go for wood, the fathers get the fire burning, the women are working the paste to make cakes for the queen of heaven, and drink offerings are drained out to other gods, moving me to wrath.
耶7:19 他们害的是我吗？岂不是他们自己，以致脸上蒙羞吗？”这是耶和华的宣告。
耶7:19 Are they moving me to wrath? says the Lord; are they not moving themselves to their shame?
耶7:20 因此，主耶和华这样说：“看哪！我的怒气和忿怒，必倒在这地方，也必倒在人口、牲畜、田野的树木和地的出产上；怒火烧起，不能熄灭。”
耶7:20 So this is what the Lord God has said: See, my wrath and my passion will be let loose on this place, on man and beast, and on the trees of the field, and on the produce of the earth; it will be burning and will not be put out.
耶7:21 万军之耶和华以色列的 神这样说：“你们尽管把燔祭加在平安祭上，自己吃祭肉吧！
耶7:21 These are the words of the Lord of armies, the God of Israel: Put your burned offerings with your offerings of beasts, and take flesh for your food.
耶7:22 因为我把你们列祖从埃及地领出来的那日，燔祭和平安祭的事，我并没有向他们提说，也没有吩咐他们。
耶7:22 For I said nothing to your fathers, and gave them no orders, on the day when I took them out of Egypt, about burned offerings or offerings of beasts:
耶7:23 我只吩咐他们这一件事，说：‘你们要听从我的话，我就作你们的 神，你们也作我的子民；你们要遵行我所吩咐的一切道，好使你们蒙福。’
耶7:23 But this was the order I gave them, saying, Give ear to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people: go in all the way ordered by me, so that all may be well for you.
耶7:24 他们却没有听从，也不留心，反倒按着他们的计谋，随从自己顽梗的恶心行事，向后不向前。
耶7:24 But they took no note and did not give ear, but were guided by the thoughts and the pride of their evil hearts, going back and not forward.
耶7:25 自从你们列祖出埃及地的那日直到今日，我差遣我的仆人众先知到你们那里去，而且是每日不断差遣。
耶7:25 From the day when your fathers came out of Egypt till this day, I have sent my servants the prophets to you, getting up early every day and sending them:
耶7:26 你们（“你们”原文作“他们”）却没有听从，毫不留心，反倒硬着颈项行恶，比你们（“你们”原文作“他们”）的列祖还厉害。
耶7:26 But still they took no note and would not give ear, but they made their necks stiff, doing worse than their fathers.
耶7:27 “你要把这一切话告诉他们，他们却不听从你；你呼叫他们，他们也不回应。
耶7:27 And you are to say all these words to them, but they will not give ear to you: you will send out your voice to them, but they will give no answer.
耶7:28 然而，你要对他们说：‘这就是不听从耶和华他们 神的话，不受管教的国；诚实丧尽，并已从他们的口中断绝了。
耶7:28 And you are to say to them, This is the nation which has not given ear to the voice of their God, or taken his teaching to heart: good faith is dead and is cut off from their mouths.
耶7:29 “‘你要剪去头发，并且把它抛掉，上到光秃的高冈举哀，因为耶和华摈斥、弃绝了他所憎恨的世代。’”
耶7:29 Let your hair be cut off, O Jerusalem, and let it go, and let a song of grief go up on the open hilltops; for the Lord is turned away from the generation of his wrath and has given them up.
耶7:30 “因为犹大人行了我看为恶的事，把他们可憎的偶像安放在称为我名下的殿中，污渎了这殿。”这是耶和华的宣告。
耶7:30 For the children of Judah have done what is evil in my eyes, says the Lord: they have put their disgusting images in the house which is named by my name, making it unclean.
耶7:31 “他们在欣嫩子谷中，建造了陀斐特的邱坛，用火焚烧自己的儿女；这不是我吩咐的，我也没有在心里想过。
耶7:31 And they have put up the high place of Topheth in the valley of the son of Hinnom, burning their sons and their daughters there in the fire; a thing which was not ordered by me and never came into my mind.
耶7:32 因此，看哪！日子快到，人必不再称这地方为陀斐特或欣嫩子谷，却要称它为‘杀戮谷’；人必在陀斐特埋葬尸体，甚至无处可容。”这是耶和华的宣告。
耶7:32 For this cause, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it will no longer be named Topheth, or, The valley of the son of Hinnom, but, The valley of Death: for they will put the dead into the earth in Topheth till there is no more room.
耶7:33 “这人民的尸体，也必给空中的飞鸟和地上的野兽作食物，没有人来驱赶。
耶7:33 And the bodies of this people will be food for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth; and there will be no one to send them away.
耶7:34 那时，我必在犹大的城市中和耶路撒冷的街道上，使欢欣和快乐的声音、新郎和新妇的声音止息，因为这地必要变为荒场。”
耶7:34 And in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, I will put an end to the laughing voices, the voice of joy and the voice of the newly-married man and the voice of the bride: for the land will become a waste.
