2:1
|
尼尼微啊，那打碎邦国的上来攻击你。你要看守保障，谨防道路，使腰强壮，大大勉力。
|
|
|
He that dasheth in pieces is come up against thee: keep the fortress, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily.
|
|
2:2
|
（耶和华复兴雅各的荣华，好像以色列的荣华一样；因为使地空虚的，已经使雅各和以色列空虚，将他们的葡萄枝毁坏了。）
|
|
|
For Jehovah restoreth the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel; for the emptiers have emptied them out, and destroyed their vine-branches.
|
|
2:3
|
他勇士的盾牌是红的，精兵都穿朱红衣服。在他预备争战的日子，战车上的钢铁闪烁如火，柏木把的枪也抡起来了。
|
|
|
The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots flash with steel in the day of his preparation, and the cypress [spears] are brandished.
|
|
2:4
|
车辆在街上（或作：城外）急行，在宽阔处奔来奔去，形状如火把，飞跑如闪电。
|
|
|
The chariots rage in the streets; they rush to and fro in the broad ways: the appearance of them is like torches; they run like the lightnings.
|
|
2:5
|
尼尼微王招聚他的贵冑；他们步行绊跌，速上城墙，预备挡牌。
|
|
|
He remembereth his nobles: they stumble in their march; they make haste to the wall thereof, and the mantelet is prepared.
|
|
2:6
|
河闸开放，宫殿冲没。
|
|
|
The gates of the rivers are opened, and the palace is dissolved.
|
|
2:7
|
王后蒙羞，被人掳去；宫女搥胸，哀鸣如鸽。此乃命定之事。
|
|
|
And it is decreed: she is uncovered, she is carried away; and her handmaids moan as with the voice of doves, beating upon their breasts.
|
|
2:8
|
尼尼微自古以来充满人民，如同聚水的池子；现在居民却都逃跑。虽有人呼喊说：站住！站住！却无人回顾。
|
|
|
But Nineveh hath been from of old like a pool of water: yet they flee away. Stand, stand, [they cry]; but none looketh back.
|
|
2:9
|
你们抢掠金银吧！因为所积蓄的无穷，华美的宝器无数。
|
|
|
Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold; for there is no end of the store, the glory of all goodly furniture.
|
|
2:10
|
尼尼微现在空虚荒凉，人心消化，双膝相碰，腰都疼痛，脸都变色。
|
|
|
She is empty, and void, and waste; and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and anguish is in all loins, and the faces of them all are waxed pale.
|
|
2:11
|
狮子的洞和少壮狮子喂养之处在那里呢？公狮母狮小狮游行、无人惊吓之地在那里呢？
|
|
|
Where is the den of the lions, and the feeding-place of the young lions, where the lion [and] the lioness walked, the lion`s whelp, and none made them afraid?
|
|
2:12
|
公狮为小狮撕碎许多食物，为母狮掐死活物，把撕碎的、掐死的充满他的洞穴。
|
|
|
The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his caves with prey, and his dens with ravin.
|
|
2:13
|
万军之耶和华说：「我与你为敌，必将你的车辆焚烧成烟，刀剑也必吞灭你的少壮狮子。我必从地上除灭你所撕碎的，你使者的声音必不再听见。」
|
|
|
Behold, I am against thee, saith Jehovah of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions; and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.
