耶8:1 “到那一天（这是耶和华的宣告），敌人要把犹大列王、首领、祭司、先知和耶路撒冷居民的骸骨，都从他们的坟墓里取出来，
耶8:1 At that time, says the Lord, they will take the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his rulers, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the people of Jerusalem out of their resting-places:
耶8:2 抛散在太阳、月亮和天上的万象之下，就是他们从前所爱慕、服事、跟随、求问、敬拜的。这些骸骨必不再被收殓埋葬，必在地面上成为粪肥。
耶8:2 And they will put them out before the sun and the moon and all the stars of heaven, whose lovers and servants they have been, after whom they have gone, to whom they have made prayers, and to whom they have given worship: they will not be put together or placed in the earth; they will be waste on the face of the earth.
耶8:3 这邪恶的家族剩下的余民，在我驱逐他们到的各地，宁可选择死，也不要存活。”这是万军之耶和华的宣告。
耶8:3 And death will be desired more than life by the rest of this evil family who are still living in all the places where I have sent them away, says the Lord of armies.
耶8:4 “你要对他们说：‘耶和华这样说：人跌倒了，不再起来吗？人偏离了，不再回转吗？
耶8:4 Further, you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Will those who are falling not be lifted up again? will he who has gone away not come back?
耶8:5 这人民为什么背道，耶路撒冷为什么长久偏离？他们定意行诡诈，不肯回转。
耶8:5 Why do these people of Jerusalem go back, for ever turning away? they will not give up their deceit, they will not come back.
耶8:6 我留心听，但他们都不说真实的话。没有人为自己的恶行后悔，说：“我究竟作了什么？”他们各人继续走自己偏差的路，像战马直冲入战场。
耶8:6 I took note and gave ear, but no one said what is right: no man had regret for his evil-doing, saying, What have I done? everyone goes off on his way like a horse rushing to the fight.
耶8:7 连空中的鹳鸟也知道自己来去的季候；斑鸠、燕子和白鹤也谨守迁移的时令；我的子民却不晓得耶和华的法则。
耶8:7 Truly, the stork in the heavens is conscious of her fixed times; the dove and the swallow and the crane keep to the times of their coming; but my people have no knowledge of the law of the Lord.
耶8:8 你们怎可以说：“我们是智慧人，我们有耶和华的律法”呢？事实上，经学家虚假的笔已把律法变成谎言了。
耶8:8 How is it that you say, We are wise and the law of the Lord is with us? But see, the false pen of the scribes has made it false.
耶8:9 智慧人必蒙羞，惊惶失措。看哪！他们弃绝了耶和华的话，他们还有什么智慧呢？
耶8:9 The wise men are shamed, they are overcome with fear and taken: see, they have given up the word of the Lord; and what use is their wisdom to them?
耶8:10 因此，我必把他们的妻子给别人，把他们的田地给别的主人，因为他们从最小的到最大的，个个都贪图不义之财；从先知到祭司，全都行事诡诈。
耶8:10 So I will give their wives to others, and their fields to those who will take them for themselves: for everyone, from the least to the greatest, is given up to getting money; from the priest even to the prophet, everyone is false.
耶8:11 他们草率地医治我子民（“我子民”原文作“我子民的女子”）的损伤，说：“平安了！平安了！”其实没有平安。’
耶8:11 And they have made little of the wounds of the daughter of Zion, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
耶8:12 耶和华说：‘他们行了可憎的事，本应觉得羞愧，可是他们一点羞愧都没有，恬不知耻。因此他们必仆倒在倒下的人中间；我惩罚他们的时候，他们必倒下来。
耶8:12 Let them be put to shame because they have done disgusting things. They had no shame, they were not able to become red with shame: so they will come down with those who are falling: in the time of their punishment they will be made low, says the Lord.
耶8:13 我要彻底除掉他们的庄稼；葡萄树上必没有葡萄，无花果树上必没有无花果，叶子也必枯干。我赐给他们的，都离开他们过去了。’”这是耶和华的宣告。
耶8:13 I will put an end to them completely, says the Lord: there are no grapes on the vine and no figs on the fig-tree, and the leaf is dry.
耶8:14 我们为什么坐着不动呢？你们要集合起来，我们要进入坚固的城里去，在那里灭亡吧！因为耶和华我们的 神要我们灭亡，又把毒水给我们喝，因我们得罪了耶和华。
耶8:14 Why are we seated doing nothing? come together, and let us go to the walled towns, and let destruction overtake us there, for the Lord our God has sent destruction on us, and given us bitter water for our drink, because we have done evil against the Lord.
耶8:15 我们期待平安，却得不到好处；期待得医治的时候，不料，只有惊慌。
耶8:15 We were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there is only a great fear.
耶8:16 从但那里听见敌人战马的喷气声，全地因听见壮马的嘶鸣声震动。他们来是要吞灭土地和地上所有的，要吞灭城和城中的居民。
耶8:16 The loud breathing of the horses comes to our ears from Dan: at the sound of the outcry of his war-horses, all the land is shaking with fear; for they have come, and have made a meal of the land and everything in it; the town and the people living in it.
耶8:17 “看哪！我要打发毒蛇到你们中间，是没有法术能制伏的，牠们必咬你们。”这是耶和华的宣告。
耶8:17 See, I will send snakes and poison-snakes among you, against which the wonder-worker has no power; and they will give you wounds which may not be made well, says the Lord.
耶8:18 我的愁苦无法医治（本句按照《马索拉抄本》意思难确定；现参照《七十士译本》翻译），我的心在我里面悲痛欲绝。
耶8:18 Sorrow has come on me! my heart in me is feeble.
耶8:19 听啊！我同胞（“同胞”原文作“人民的女子”）的呼救声，从遥远之地传来：“耶和华不在锡安吗？锡安的王不在其中吗？”“他们为什么以自己雕刻的偶像，和列国虚无的偶像，来惹我发怒呢？”
耶8:19 The voice of the cry of the daughter of my people comes from a far land: Is the Lord not in Zion? is not her King in her? Why have they made me angry with their images and their strange gods which are no gods?
耶8:20 “收割期已过，夏天也结束；但我们仍未获救。”
耶8:20 The grain-cutting is past, the summer is ended, and no salvation has come to us.
耶8:21 因着我的同胞（“同胞”原文作“人民的女子”）被压碎，我的心破碎了；我悲伤痛哭，惊慌抓住了我。
耶8:21 For the destruction of the daughter of my people I am broken: I am dressed in the clothing of grief; fear has taken me in its grip.
耶8:22 难道基列没有乳香吗？难道那里没有医生吗？我的同胞（“同胞”原文作“人民的女子”）为什么总不痊愈呢？
耶8:22 Is there no life-giving oil in Gilead? is there no expert in medical arts? why then have my people not been made well?
