Deuteronomy | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 蒼天，傾聽，我要發言；大地，聆聽我口要說的話！ | 1 | Hear, O ye heavens, the things I speak, let the earth give ear to the words of my mouth. |
| 2 | 願我的教訓如雨下降，我的言語似露滴落，像降在綠茵上的細雨，像落在青草上的甘霖！ | 2 | Let my doctrine gather as the rain, let my speech distil as the dew, as a shower upon the herb, and as drops upon the grass. |
| 3 | 因為我要宣揚上主的名，請讚頌我們的天主！ | 3 | Because I will invoke the name of the Lord: give ye magnificence to our God. |
| 4 | 他是磐石，他的作為完美無比；他的行徑公平正直，他是忠實無妄的天主，公義而又正直。 | 4 | The works of God are perfect, and all his ways are judgments: God is faithful and without any iniquity, he is just and right. |
| 5 | 那不堪稱為子女的，自趨墮落，背叛了他，實在是個邪惡敗壞的世代！ | 5 | They have sinned against him, and are nose of his children in their filth: they are a wicked and perverse generation. |
| 6 | 愚昧無知的人民，你們就這樣報答上主嗎？他不是生育你，創造你，使你生存的大父嗎？ | 6 | Is this the return thou makest to the Lord, O foolish and senseless people? Is not he thy father, that hath possessed thee, and made thee, and created thee? |
| 7 | 你回想往古的時日，思念歷代的歲月；問你的父親，問你的長輩，他必給你講述： | 7 | Remember the days of old, think upon every generation: ask thy father, and he will declare to thee: thy elders and they will tell thee. |
| 8 | 當至高者為民族分配產業時，分佈人的子孫時，按照天使的數目，為萬民劃定了疆界； | 8 | When the Most High divided the nations: when he separated the sons of Adam, he appointed the bounds of people according to the number of the children of Israel. |
| 9 | 但雅各伯是上主所保留的一分，以色列成為他特有的產業。 | 9 | But the Lord's portion is his people: Jacob the lot of his inheritance. |
| 10 | 上主在曠野之地，在野獸咆哮的原野，發現了他，遂將他抱起，加以撫育，加以保護，有如自己的眼珠。 | 10 | He found him in a desert land, in a place of horror, and of vast wilderness: he led him about, and taught him: and he kept him as the apple of his eye. |
| 11 | 老鷹怎樣守候自己的窩巢，飛翔在幼雛之上，上主也怎樣伸展雙翅，把他背在自己的翼上。 | 11 | As the eagle enticing her young to fly, and hovering over them, he spread his wings, and hath taken him and carried him on his shoulders. |
| 12 | 上主獨自領導了他，他旁邊並沒有外邦的神祇。 | 12 | The Lord alone was his leader: and there was no strange god with him. |
| 13 | 上主使他馳騁於高原之上，以田間的出產養育他，使他享受巖穴間的蜜，堅石中的油， | 13 | He set him upon high land: that he might eat the fruits of the fields, that he might suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the hardest stone, |
| 14 | 牛酪和羊乳，肥美的羔羊和公羊，巴商的公牛與山羊，以及上等的麥麵；並以葡萄美酒作你的飲品。 | 14 | Butter of the herd, and milk of the sheep with the fat of lambs, and of the rams of the breed of Basan: and goats with the marrow of wheat, and might drink the purest blood of the grape. |
| 15 | 雅各伯吃肥了，耶叔戎吃胖了，會踢人了。──的確，你胖了，肥了，飽滿了。──他遂拋棄了造他的天主，輕視了救他的磐石。 | 15 | The beloved grew fat, and kicked: he grew fat, and thick and gross, he forsook God who made him, and departed from God his saviour. |
| 16 | 他們以邪神的敬禮激起他的妒火，以可憎惡的事物，惹他動怒； | 16 | They provoked him by strange gods, and stirred him up to anger, with their abominations. |
| 17 | 他們所祭祀的是邪神，而非真神，是向來所不認識的神，是近來新興，你們的祖先所不敬畏的神。 | 17 | They sacrificed to devils and not to God: to gods whom they knew not: that were newly come up, whom their fathers worshipped not. |
| 18 | 你忽略了那生你的磐石，忘記了那使你出世的天主。 | 18 | Thou hast forsaken the God that beget thee, and hast forgotten the Lord that created thee. |
| 19 | 上主一見，大為震怒，遂拋棄了自己的子女， | 19 | The Lord saw, and was moved to wrath: because his own sons and daughters provoked him. |
| 20 | 說我要掩面不顧他們，要看他們的結局如何；這實在是敗壞的一代，毫無信實的子女。 | 20 | And he said: I will hide my face from them, and will consider what their last end shall be: for it is a perverse generation, and unfaithful children. |
| 21 | 他們以虛妄之神，激起我的怒火，以虛無之物，惹我動怒；我也要以那不成子民的人激起他們的妒火，以愚昧的民族惹他們發怒。 | 21 | They have provoked me with that which was no god, and have angered me with their vanities: and I will provoke them with that which is no people, and will vex them with a foolish nation. |
| 22 | 我的怒火一燃起，必燒到陰府的深底，吞滅大地及其出產，焚毀山岳的基礎。 | 22 | A fire is kindled in my wrath, and shall burn even to the lowest hell: and shall devour the earth with her increase, and shall burn the foundations of the mountains. |
| 23 | 我要將災禍不斷加在他們身上，向他們射盡我的箭矢。 | 23 | I will heap evils upon them, and will spend my arrows among them. |
| 24 | 他們必因饑餓而衰弱，必為熱症、毒疫所消滅；我還使尖牙的野獸和土中爬行的毒蟲傷害他們。 | 24 | They shall be consumed with famine, and birds shall devour them with a most bitter bite: I will send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the fury of creatures that trail upon the ground, and of serpents. |
| 25 | 外有刀劍，內有恐怖，使少男少女，乳兒白頭，同歸於盡。 | 25 | Without, the sword shall lay them waste, and terror within, both the young man and the virgin, the sucking child with the man in years. |
| 26 | 我原想粉碎他們，將他們的記念由人間消滅； | 26 | I said: Where are they? I will make the memory of them to cease from among men. |
| 27 | 但我怕仇人自誇，怕敵人誤會說：「是我的手得勝了，而不是上主行了這一切。」 | 27 | But for the wrath of the enemies I have deferred it: lest perhaps their enemies might be proud, and should say: Our mighty hand, and not the Lord, hath done all these things. |
| 28 | 他們原是無謀的民族，沒有一點見識。 | 28 | They are a nation without counsel, and without wisdom. |
| 29 | 如果他們有點智慧，定會明瞭此事，看清未來的局勢。 | 29 | O that they would be wise and would understand, and would provide for their last end. |
| 30 | 「若不是他們的磐石出賣了他們，上主放棄了他們，一人怎能追擊一千，兩人怎能打跑一萬？」 | 30 | How should one pursue after a thousand, and two chase ten thousand? Was it not, because their God had sold them, and the Lord had shut them up? |
| 31 | 連我們的仇人也承認，他們的磐石不如我們的磐石。 | 31 | For our God is not as their gods: our enemies themselves are judges. |
| 32 | 誠然，他們的葡萄秧，出自索多瑪的葡萄園，來自哈摩辣的田園；他們的葡萄是毒葡萄，粒粒葡萄皆酸苦。 | 32 | Their vines are of the vineyard of Sodom, and of the suburbs of Gomorrha: their grapes are grapes of gall, and their clusters most bitter. |
| 33 | 他們的酒是蛇的毒汁，是蝮蛇的猛烈毒液。 | 33 | Their wine is the gall of dragons, and the venom of asps, which is incurable. |
| 34 | 這事豈不是貯藏在我身旁，封閉在我府庫裡？ | 34 | Are not these things stored up with me, and sealed up in my treasures? |
| 35 | 等到他們失足之時，我必復仇報復；他們滅亡的日子確已臨近，給他們預定的命運就要來到。 | 35 | Revenge is mine, and I will repay them in due time, that their foot may slide: the day of destruction is at hand, and the time makes haste to come. |
| 36 | 因為上主要衛護自己的人民，憐恤自己的僕人。當他看見他們的能力已逝，奴隸與自由人已到絕境， | 36 | The Lord will judge his people, and will have mercy on his servants : he shall see that their hand is weakened, and that they who were shut up have also failed, and they that remained are consumed. |
| 37 | 必問說：「他們的神祇在那裡，他們投靠的磐石究在何處？ | 37 | And he shall say: Where are their gods, in whom they trusted? |
| 38 | 一向吃他們祭牲脂肪的，喝他們奠祭酒漿的，都在那裡？讓他們起來援助你們罷！讓他們做你們的保障罷！ | 38 | Of whose victims they ate the fat, and drank the wine of their drink offerings: let them arise and help you, and protect you in your distress. |
| 39 | 現在你們應認清，只有我是「那一位」，除我以外沒有別神；我使人死，也使人活；我擊傷人，也加以治療；誰也不能由我手中救出。 | 39 | See ye that I alone am, and there is no other God besides me: I will kill and I will make to live: I will strike, and I will heal, and there is none that can deliver out of my hand. |
| 40 | 我向天舉手宣誓：我生活，至於永遠！ | 40 | I will lift up my hand to heaven, and I will say: I live for ever. |
| 41 | 我一磨亮我的刀劍，我一掌握裁判權，必向我的敵人雪恨，對恨我的人報復。 | 41 | If I shall whet my sword as the lightning, and my hand take hold on judgment: I will render vengeance to my enemies, and repay them that hate me. |
| 42 | 我要使我的箭矢醉飲鮮血，使我的刀劍吞食血肉；陣亡和俘虜的鮮血，仇敵將領的頭顱。」 | 42 | I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, of the blood of the slain and of the captivity, of the bare head of the enemies. |
| 43 | 萬國，你們應向他的百姓祝賀！因為上主必為自己的僕人報血仇，向仇敵報復，聖潔自己的土地和百姓。 | 43 | Praise his people, ye nations, for he will revenge the blood of his servants: and will render vengeance to their enemies, and he will be merciful to the land of his people. |
| 44 | 梅瑟和農的兒子若蘇厄前來，將這篇詩歌的話朗誦給百姓聽。 | 44 | So Moses came and spoke all the words of this canticle in the ears of the people, and Josue the son of Nun. |
| 45 | 梅瑟向全以色列人一朗誦完了， | 45 | And he ended all these words, speaking to all Israel. |
| 46 | 就對他們說：「你們應把我今日警告你們的一切話記在心內，好吩咐你們的子孫，謹守遵行這法律上的一切話。 | 46 | And he said to them : Set your hearts on all the words, which I testify to you this day: which you shall command your children to observe and to do, and to fulfil all that is written in this law: |
| 47 | 因為這為你們不是空洞的話，而是關係你們的生命；由於遵守這話，你們纔能在過約但河後所要佔領的地上，長久居留。」 | 47 | For they are not commanded you in vain, but that every one should live in them, and that doing them you may continue a long time in the land whither you are going over the Jordan to possess it. |
| 48 | 上主就在當天對梅瑟說： | 48 | And the Lord spoke to Moses the same day, saying: |
| 49 | 「你到摩阿布去，上這座阿巴陵山，即面對耶里哥的乃波山上去，觀看我要給以色列子民作產業的客納罕地。 | 49 | Go up into this mountain Abarim, (that is to say, of passages,) unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab over against Jericho: and see the land of Chanaan, which I will deliver to the children of Israel to possess, and die thou in the mountain. |
| 50 | 你要死在你所上的山上，歸到你本族那裡，像你哥哥亞郎死在曷爾山，歸到他本族那裡一樣。 | 50 | When thou art gone up into it thou shalt be gathered to thy people, as Aaron thy brother died in mount Her, and was gathered to his people: |
| 51 | 因為你們在親曠野，卡德士的默黎巴水邊，在以色列子民中對我失信，沒有在他們中尊我為聖； | 51 | Because you trespassed against me in the midst of the children of Israel, at the waters of contradiction in Cades of the desert of Sin: and you did not sanctify me among the children of Israel. |
| 52 | 為此，我賜給以色列子民的地方，你只可由對面眺望，卻不能進去。」 | 52 | Thou shalt see the land before thee, which I will give to the children of Israel, but thou shalt not enter into it. |
