Jeremiah 耶利米书15

15Then the Lord said to me: "Even if Moses and Samuel were to stand before me, my heart would not go out to this people. Send them away from my presence! Let them go!
2And if they ask you, 'Where shall we go?' tell them, 'This is what the Lord says: " 'Those destined 1 for death, to death; those for the sword, to the sword; those for starvation, to starvation; those for captivity 2, to captivity.'
3"I will send four kinds of destroyers against them," declares the Lord , "the sword to kill and the dogs to drag away and the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth to devour 3 and destroy.
4I will make them abhorrent 4 to all the kingdoms of the earth because of what Manasseh son of Hezekiah king of Judah did in Jerusalem.
5"Who will have pity on you, O Jerusalem? Who will mourn for you? Who will stop to ask how you are?
6You have rejected me," declares the Lord . "You keep on backsliding. So I will lay hands on you and destroy you; I can no longer show compassion 5.
7I will winnow 6 them with a winnowing 7 fork at the city gates of the land. I will bring bereavement 8 and destruction on my people, for they have not changed their ways.
8I will make their widows more numerous than the sand of the sea. At midday I will bring a destroyer against the mothers of their young men; suddenly I will bring down on them anguish 9 and terror.
9The mother of seven will grow faint and breathe her last. Her sun will set while it is still day; she will be disgraced and humiliated 10. I will put the survivors 11 to the sword before their enemies," declares the Lord .
10Alas, my mother, that you gave me birth, a man with whom the whole land strives and contends! I have neither lent nor borrowed, yet everyone curses me.
11The Lord said, "Surely I will deliver you for a good purpose; surely I will make your enemies plead with you in times of disaster and times of distress 12.
12"Can a man break iron- iron from the north-or bronze?
13Your wealth and your treasures I will give as plunder 13, without charge, because of all your sins throughout your country.
14I will enslave you to your enemies in a land you do not know, for my anger will kindle 14 a fire that will burn against you."
15You understand, O Lord ; remember me and care for me. Avenge 15 me on my persecutors. You are long-suffering-do not take me away; think of how I suffer reproach for your sake.
16When your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart's delight, for I bear your name, O Lord God Almighty 16.
17I never sat in the company of revelers, never made merry with them; I sat alone because your hand was on me and you had filled me with indignation.
18Why is my pain unending and my wound grievous and incurable 17? Will you be to me like a deceptive 18 brook 19, like a spring that fails?
19Therefore this is what the Lord says: "If you repent 20, I will restore you that you may serve me; if you utter worthy 21, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman. Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them.
20I will make you a wall to this people, a fortified 22 wall of bronze; they will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you to rescue and save you," declares the Lord .
21"I will save you from the hands of the wicked and redeem 23 you from the grasp of the cruel."
