耶利米书6-先知

耶利米书6章中

³Enemies will surround you, like shepherds camped around the city.Each chooses a place for his troops to devour. ⁴They shout, ‘Prepare for battle!Attack at noon!’‘No, it’s too late; the day is fading, and the evening shadows are falling.’ ⁵‘Well then, let’s attack at nightand destroy her palaces!’” ⁹This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says:“Even the few who remain in Israelwill be picked over again, as when a harvester checks each vine a second timeto pick the grapes that were missed.” ¹¹So now I am filled with the Lord’s fury.Yes, I am tired of holding it in!“I will pour out my fury on children playing in the streetsand on gatherings of young men, on husbands and wivesand on those who are old and gray. ¹²Their homes will be turned over to their enemies, as will their fields and their wives.For I will raise my powerful fistagainst the people of this land, ”says the Lord. ¹³“From the least to the greatest, their lives are ruled by greed.From prophets to priests, they are all frauds. ¹⁴They offer superficial treatmentsfor my people’s mortal wound.They give assurances of peacewhen there is no peace. ¹⁵Are they ashamed of their disgusting actions?Not at all - they don’t even know how to blush!Therefore, they will lie among the slaughtered.They will be brought down when I punish them, ”says the Lord. ¹⁶This is what the Lord says:“Stop at the crossroads and look around.Ask for the old, godly way, and walk in it.Travel its path, and you will find rest for your souls.But you reply, ‘No, that’s not the road we want!’ ¹⁷I posted watchmen over you who said, ‘Listen for the sound of the alarm.’But you replied, ‘No! We won’t pay attention!’ ¹⁹Listen, all the earth!I will bring disaster on my people.It is the fruit of their own schemes, because they refuse to listen to me.They have rejected my word. ²¹Therefore, this is what the Lord says:“I will put obstacles in my people’s path.Fathers and sons will both fall over them.Neighbors and friends will die together.” ²³They are armed with bows and spears.They are cruel and show no mercy.They sound like a roaring seaas they ride forward on horses.They are coming in battle formation, planning to destroy you, beautiful Jerusalem.#6:23 Hebrew daughter of Zion.” ²⁴We have heard reports about the enemy, and we wring our hands in fright.Pangs of anguish have gripped us, like those of a woman in labor. ²⁵Don’t go out to the fields!Don’t travel on the roads!The enemy’s sword is everywhereand terrorizes us at every turn! ²⁶Oh, my people, dress yourselves in burlapand sit among the ashes.Mourn and weep bitterly, as for the loss of an only son.For suddenly the destroying armies will be upon you! ²⁸They are the worst kind of rebel, full of slander.They are as hard as bronze and iron, and they lead others into corruption. ³⁰I will label them ‘Rejected Silver, ’for I, the Lord, am discarding them.”
