耶利米书第9章

《圣经》耶利米书-第9章

耶9:1 但愿我的头为水，我的眼为泪的泉源，我好为我百姓（原文作民女；七节同）中被杀的人昼夜哭泣。 (串)赛22:4耶4:19;13:17哀2:11;3:48

†[吕]（希伯来文经卷作耶8：23）哦，愿我的头为水，愿我的眼为眼泪之泉源，我好为我子民（原文：我人民的女子）中被刺死的人昼夜哭泣。

†[思]恨不得我的头变成水源，我的眼化为泪泉，好能日夜哭泣我被杀的女儿──人民！

†[当代]巴不得我的头是水，我的眼是泪水的泉源，好让我能为我子民的被杀而昼夜哭泣。

†[新译]但愿我的头是水井，我的眼是泪的泉源；我好为我同胞（“同胞”原文作“人民的女子”）中被杀的，昼夜哭泣。（本节在《马索拉抄本》为8:23）

†[Wlb]愿我首为水泉、我目为泪源、则可为我被戮之民女、旦夕哭泣、

†[Xdv]但愿我的头颅是水井，眼睛是泪泉，我好日夜为被杀的同胞哭泣。

†[Kjv]Oh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!

†[Nkjv]Oh, that my head were waters, And my eyes a fountain of tears, That I might weep day and night For the slain of the daughter of my people!

†[BBE]If only my head was a stream of waters and my eyes fountains of weeping, so that I might go on weeping day and night for the dead of the daughter of my people!

†[GNT] I wish my head were a well of water, and my eyes a fountain of tears, so that I could cry day and night for my people who have been killed.

†[NIV]Oh, that my head were a spring of water and my eyes a fountain of tears! I would weep day and night for the slain of my people.

本会注释　　从逻辑上讲，本节属于耶8章。希伯来语圣经也是这样编排的。这是用诗的语言来表达悲情（见赛22:4的诗；哀2:11；3:48）。先知深感犹大绝望的惨境，就痛苦流涕。耶利米无疑因本节而被称为“哀哭的先知”。他感情之深和语言之温柔，使我们想起六个百年后为同胞的罪孽和厄运哀哭的基督（见路19:41-44）。

耶9:2 惟愿我在旷野有行路人住宿之处，使我可以离开我的民出去；因他们都是行奸淫的，是行诡诈的一党。 (串)耶5:7,8

†[吕]（希伯来文经卷作耶9：1）但愿我在旷野有行路人住宿的地方，使我可以放下我的人民而离开他们；因为他们都是行奸淫的、是行诡诈的一帮。

†[思]谁能在旷野给我找一个旅栈，叫我好离开我的人民，离他们而远去？因为都是些淫乱之徒，是一群反叛；

†[当代]巴不得我在荒野有寄居的地方，好让我能远离我的子民，因为他们都是不忠不贞的一群。

†[新译]但愿我在旷野有一个旅客住宿的地方，好使我离开我的同胞，可以离他们而去；因为他们都是行奸淫的，是行诡诈之徒。（本节在《马索拉抄本》为9:1）

†[Wlb]愿我于野得有旅邸、则可离我民而去、以彼俱为淫乱之徒、诡诈之党、

†[Xdv]但愿我在荒野有蔽身的地方，能远远地避开同胞。唉！他们是一群叛徒，一点忠信都没有。

†[Kjv]Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they be all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men.

†[Nkjv]Oh, that I had in the wilderness A lodging place for travelers; That I might leave my people, And go from them! For they are all adulterers, An assembly of treacherous men.

†[BBE]If only I had in the waste land a night's resting-place for travellers, so that I might go away, far from my people! for they are all untrue, a band of false men.

†[GNT] I wish I had a place to stay in the desert where I could get away from my people. They are all unfaithful, a mob of traitors.

†[NIV]Oh, that I had in the desert a lodging place for travelers, so that I might leave my people and go away from them; for they are all adulterers, a crowd of unfaithful people.

本会注释　　住宿之处。与败坏而不敬虔的犹大人一起生活已无法忍受了。所以耶利米渴望到人迹罕至的旷野，去过安静的隐退生活（见诗55:6-8）。
　　行奸淫的。指肉体和属灵方面的（见@耶2:20；3:8,9；5:7,8@注释）。

耶9:3 他们弯起舌头象弓一样，为要说谎话。他们在国中增长势力，不是为行诚实，乃是恶上加恶，并不认识我。这是耶和华说的。 (串)诗64:3赛59:4,13,15|撒上2:12何4:1

†[吕]他们弯了舌头像弓一样（传统：他们的弓）；在这地得势的是虚假、不是忠信（传统：不是为忠信）；因为他们是出于坏而归于坏的，连我、他们也不认识：永恒主发神谕说。

†[思]他们弯起像弓的舌头，使在地上得势的，是虚伪而不是诚实，因为他们变本加厉作恶，全不理睬我──上主的断语。

†[当代]“他们卷起舌头像拉弓一样，发出来的不是诚实，而是谎话，因此他们在地上得势；他们行恶，变本加厉；他们不认识我。

†[新译]“他们弯曲舌头，像弯弓一样；在这地得势的是虚谎，不是诚实；因为他们变本加厉地作恶，连我也不认识。”这是耶和华的宣告。

†[Wlb]彼弯舌如弓、以发诳言、在国中为强大、而不行信实、行恶有加无已、而不我识、耶和华言之矣、

†[Xdv]他们随时随地撒谎；虚伪取代真理，控制了这地。上主说：我的子民一再作恶，不承认我是他们的上帝。

†[Kjv]And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD.

†[Nkjv]"And like their bow they have bent their tongues for lies. They are not valiant for the truth on the earth. For they proceed from evil to evil, And they do not know Me," says the LORD.

†[BBE]Their tongues are bent like a bow to send out false words: they have become strong in the land, but not for good faith: they go on from evil to evil, and they have no knowledge of me, says the Lord.

†[GNT] They are always ready to tell lies; dishonesty instead of truth rules the land. The Lord says, "My people do one evil thing after another and do not acknowledge me as their God."

†[NIV]They make ready their tongue like a bow, to shoot lies; it is not by truth that they triumph in the land. They go from one sin to another; they do not acknowledge me," declares the Lord .

本会注释　　他们弯起。直译是“踩”。大型的战弓在上弦时是用脚踩住下端，使另一端弯曲，好连接牛肠线弓弦。耶50:14,29是“弓箭手”，直译是“踩弓者”。
　　舌头。把他们的舌头被作弓，向邻居发射谎言的箭（见诗57:4；58:7；64:3,4；参赛59:4）。
　　诚实。见@耶5:3；7:28@注释。七十士译本为：“到处是谎言和失信。”百姓不是靠诚信的规范变得强大富有，而是靠欺诈，手腕和诡计。
　　国。译成“地”可能更好一些（见@耶4:20,23@注释）。
　　恶上加恶。不住地犯罪。罪人从一种罪行转到另一种罪行（见提后3:13）。
　　不认识我。即“他们不承认”（见撒上2:12；伯18:21；何4:1）。这是他们一切罪恶的根本原因。

耶9:4 你们各人当谨防邻舍，不可信靠弟兄；因为弟兄尽行欺骗，邻舍都往来谗谤人。 (串)耶12:6弥7:5,6|耶6:28

†[吕]你们各人都要提防邻舍，不要信靠弟兄；因为弟兄都欺欺骗骗、像雅各，邻舍都走来走去、搬弄是非：永恒主发神谕说。

†[思]你们应各自提防自己的近人，不要信任弟兄，因为所有的弟兄都爱好欺诈，一般的近人都好说谗言；

†[当代]你们各人要提防自己的邻舍，不要信赖任何弟兄；因为作弟兄的，诡计多端，邻舍都是满口是非。

†[新译]“你们各人要提防自己的邻舍，不要信靠兄弟；因为每一个兄弟都在欺骗人，每一个邻舍都搬弄是非。

†[Wlb]尔曹各当谨防邻里、勿信昆弟、盖昆弟相欺特甚、邻里往来谗毁、

†[Xdv]每一个人都得提防亲友，亲兄弟也不能信任；因为兄弟都跟雅各一样诡诈，

†[Kjv]Take ye heed every one of his neighbour, and trust ye not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbour will walk with slanders.

†[Nkjv]"Everyone take heed to his neighbor, And do not trust any brother; For every brother will utterly supplant, And every neighbor will walk with slanderers.

†[BBE]Let everyone keep watch on his neighbour, and put no faith in any brother: for every brother will certainly be tricking his brother, and every neighbour will go about saying evil.

†[GNT] Everyone must be on guard against their friends, and no one can trust their relatives; for all relatives are as deceitful as Jacob, and everyone slanders their friends.

†[NIV]Beware of your friends; do not trust your brothers. For every brother is a deceiver, and every friend a slanderer.

本会注释　　你们各人当谨防邻舍。当一个民族背离真宗教的基本原则时，百姓的生活还会有约束力呢？其结果是道德的完全沦丧（见弥7:5,6）。耶利米从自己痛苦的经历中体会到，什么人都靠不住，甚至是家里的人（见耶12:6；参太10:36）。
　　邻舍都往来谗谤人。即邻居“到处说闲话”（见耶6:28）。

耶9:5 他们各人欺哄邻舍，不说真话；他们教舌头学习说谎，劳劳碌碌地作孽。

†[吕]他们各人都愚弄邻舍，不说真话；乃是教练舌头说假话；他们犯罪作孽，懒着悔改；

†[思]人都欺骗自己的近人，不讲实话，使自己的舌头惯于说谎，竭力行恶，

†[当代]各人彼此欺骗，不说真话；他们的舌头惯说谎言；他们为犯罪而疲于奔命。

†[新译]他们各人都欺骗自己的邻舍，不说诚实话。他们训练自己的舌头说谎话，竭力作孽，以致他们不能回转（本句按照《马索拉抄本》意思难确定；现参照《七十士译本》翻译）。

†[Wlb]各迋其邻、不言诚实、舌习诳言、作恶致惫、

†[Xdv]每一个亲友都好搬弄是非。人人欺骗朋友；没有人说诚实话；人人教导舌头撒谎。他们继续不断地犯罪；

†[Kjv]And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.

†[Nkjv]Everyone will deceive his neighbor, And will not speak the truth; They have taught their tongue to speak lies; They weary themselves to commit iniquity.

†[BBE]Everyone will make sport of his neighbour with deceit, not saying what is true: their tongues have been trained to say false words; they are twisted, hating to come back.

†[GNT] They all mislead their friends, and no one tells the truth; they have taught their tongues to lie and will not give up their sinning. They do one violent thing after another, and one deceitful act follows another. The Lord says that his people reject him

†[NIV]Friend deceives friend, and no one speaks the truth. They have taught their tongues to lie; they weary themselves with sinning.

本会注释　　欺哄。在耶利米时代，百姓不但欺骗他们所认为的敌人，也欺骗自己的朋友。
　　教舌头。暗示他们的犯罪是不自然的。舌头必须受过训练才能撒谎。
　　劳劳碌碌。他们犯罪的意愿超过他们作恶的能力。

耶9:6 你的住处在诡诈的人中；他们因行诡诈，不肯认识我。这是耶和华说的。

†[吕]欺凌加上欺凌，诡诈（传统：你的住所在诡诈中间）加上诡诈，总不肯认识我：这是永恒主发神谕说的。

†[思]不愿悔悟，却强暴上又加强暴，欺诈上又加欺诈，全不理睬我──上主的断语。

†[当代]你们住在欺诈的人中间，因行欺诈不肯认识我。”主说。

†[新译]欺凌加上欺凌，诡诈加上诡诈，他们不肯认识我。”这是耶和华的宣告。

†[Wlb]耶和华曰、尔居诡诈之中、彼缘诡诈、不肯识我、

†[Xdv]他们接二连三地强暴欺诈。上主说，他的子民背弃他。

†[Kjv]Thine habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, saith the LORD.

†[Nkjv]Your dwelling place is in the midst of deceit; Through deceit they refuse to know Me," says the LORD.

†[BBE]There is wrong on wrong, deceit on deceit; they have given up the knowledge of me, says the Lord.

†[GNT] －

†[NIV]You live in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to acknowledge me," declares the Lord .

本会注释　　你的住处。要么是耶利米的住处，要么是百姓的住处。本节七十士译本为“盘剥加上盘剥，欺骗诈加上欺诈；他们不想认识我”。
　　不肯。百姓故意不认识上帝（见第3节；耶5:4,5）。犯罪是出于他们的选择。

耶9:7 所以万军之耶和华如此说：看哪，我要将他们融化熬炼；不然，我因我百姓的罪该怎样行呢？ (串)赛1:25玛3:3|何11:8

†[吕]因此万军之永恒主这么说：“看吧，我必熬炼他们，试验他们；不然，我因我子民（原文：我人民的女子）的罪该怎样行呢？

†[思]为此万军的上主这样说：“看，我要将他们净化，提炼；否则，我将怎样处理我的女儿──人民──的邪恶？

†[当代]因此，万军之主这样说：“看哪，我要锻炼他们，试验他们；除此之外，我还可以为我的子民做些什么呢？

†[新译]因此，万军之耶和华这样说：“看哪！我要熬炼他们，试验他们；因我子民（“我子民”原文作“我子民的女子”）的罪恶，我还可以作什么呢？

†[Wlb]万军之耶和华曰、因我民女如是、我必陶镕之、煆炼之、否则何以处之、

†[Xdv]因此，上主──万军的统帅这样说：我要锻炼我的子民，考验他们。我的子民作恶，我能不惩罚吗？

†[Kjv]Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how shall I do for the daughter of my people?

†[Nkjv]Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts: "Behold, I will refine them and try them; For how shall I deal with the daughter of My people?

†[BBE]So the Lord of armies has said, See, I will make them soft in the fire and put them to the test; this I will do because of their evil-doing.

†[GNT] Because of this the Lord Almighty says, "I will refine my people like metal and put them to the test. My people have done evil - what else can I do with them?

†[NIV]Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty says: "See, I will refine and test them, for what else can I do because of the sin of my people?

本会注释　　万军之耶和华。见@耶7:3@注释。
　　我要将他们融化。为了去除渣滓，上帝要让他们经过苦难的熔炉（见@耶6:27-30@注释；参赛48:10）。惩罚是为了洁净，而不是毁灭（见亚13:9；玛3:3）。
　　熬炼（bachan）。“试验”（见@耶6:27@注释）。
　　该怎样行呢？这个问题证明上帝做法的正确（见赛5:4）。在这种情况下，上帝还能怎样对待他们呢？

耶9:8 他们的舌头是毒箭，说话诡诈；人与邻舍口说和平话，心却谋害他。 (串)本章3诗12:2;120:3|诗28:3;55:21

†[吕]他们的舌头是杀人的利箭，他咀里迳说诡诈；他跟邻舍说和平话，心里却设伏要害他。

†[思]他们的舌头像毒箭，好出诈言；嘴上对邻友说话温和，心中却设计陷害。

†[当代]他们的舌头是好出诈言的毒箭；对待自己的邻舍，总是口蜜腹剑。

†[新译]他们的舌头是杀人的利箭，嘴里说的是诡诈；跟邻舍说话满口甜言蜜语，心底里却设计陷害他。

†[Wlb]其舌乃毒矢、而出诈言、对于邻里、口言平康、心伏残害、

†[Xdv]他们的舌头像锐利的箭；他们不断撒谎。人人对朋友甜言蜜语，其实在挖陷阱。

†[Kjv]Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaketh deceit: one speaketh peaceably to his neighbour with his mouth, but in heart he layeth his wait.

†[Nkjv]Their tongue is an arrow shot out; It speaks deceit; One speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, But in his heart he lies in wait.

†[BBE]His tongue is an arrow causing death; the words of his mouth are deceit: he says words of peace to his neighbour, but in his heart he is waiting secretly for him.

†[GNT] Their tongues are like deadly arrows; they always tell lies. Everyone speaks friendly words to their neighbors, but they are really setting a trap for them.

†[NIV]Their tongue is a deadly arrow; it speaks with deceit. With his mouth each speaks cordially to his neighbor, but in his heart he sets a trap for him.

本会注释　　毒箭。或“害人的箭”，或“强弩所射出的箭”。第3节把他们的舌头比作弓。在这里则比作毒箭。

耶9:9 耶和华说：我岂不因这些事讨他们的罪呢？岂不报复这样的国民呢？ (串)耶5:9,29

†[吕]永恒主发神谕说：我岂不因这些事而施察罚呢？这对的国我岂不加以报复呢？

†[思]为这些事我岂能不惩罚？──上主的断语──像这样的一个民族，我岂能不图报复？

†[当代]难道我对这些人不应惩之以法吗？对于一个这样的国家，难道我不应亲自报复吗？”

†[新译]我因这些事怎能不惩罚他们呢？像这样的国家，我怎能不亲自报复呢？”这是耶和华的宣告。

†[Wlb]耶和华曰、我岂不缘此而加谴责、岂不复仇于若是之国哉、

†[Xdv]我不该为这些事惩罚他们吗？我不该对这种国家报复吗？

†[Kjv]Shall I not visit them for these things? saith the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

†[Nkjv]Shall I not punish them for these things?" says the LORD. "Shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?"

†[BBE]Am I not to send punishment for these things? says the Lord: will not my soul take payment from such a nation as this?

†[GNT] Will I not punish them for these things? Will I not take revenge on a nation like this? I, the Lord, have spoken."

†[NIV]Should I not punish them for this?" declares the Lord . "Should I not avenge myself on such a nation as this?"

本会注释　　讨他们的罪。即“惩治他们”（见@诗8:4；59:5@注释）。

耶9:10 我要为山岭哭泣悲哀，为旷野的草场扬声哀号；因为都已干焦，甚至无人经过。人也听不见牲畜鸣叫，空中的飞鸟和地上的野兽都已逃去。 (串)耶23:10何4:3|耶4:25

†[吕]“为了山岭、你们（传统：我）要哭泣举哀，为了野地的草场、你们要扬声唱哀歌；因为都已倒坏（传统：乾焦），无人经过；牲畜的声音都听不到；无论空中的飞鸟、以至地上走兽、全都逃跑了。”

†[思]我要为群山号啕痛哭，为原野高唱哀歌，因为全都被焚毁，没有人往来，再听不到牲畜的声音；自天空的飞鸟到地上的走兽，都逃去无踪。

†[当代]我要为众山举哀痛哭，为旷野的草原致哀，因为它们被弃为荒地，无人经过；听不见牲畜的声音，雀鸟和走兽也逃去无踪。

†[新译]我要为众山哭泣哀号，为旷野的草场唱哀歌；因为都已成为荒凉，无人经过，也听不到牲畜的叫声；无论空中的飞鸟，地上的走兽，都逃走跑掉了。

†[Wlb]我为山岳哭泣号啕、为旷野之草场悲哀、因其焚毁、无人经之、不闻牲畜之声、飞禽走兽、俱已逃亡、

†[Xdv]我说：我要为山冈悲鸣哀号，为草原唱一首挽歌；因为它们被烧成焦土，再没有人走过，也没有牛羊的声音，连飞鸟走兽都绝迹。

†[Kjv]For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the habitations of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none can pass through them; neither can men hear the voice of the cattle; both the fowl of the heavens and the beast are fled; they are gone.

†[Nkjv]I will take up a weeping and wailing for the mountains, And for the dwelling places of the wilderness a lamentation, Because they are burned up, So that no one can pass through; Nor can men hear the voice of the cattle. Both the birds of the heavens and the beasts have fled; They are gone.

†[BBE]Give yourselves to weeping, crying out in sorrow for the mountains; and for the fields of the waste land send up a song of grief, because they are burned up, so that no one goes through; there is no sound of cattle; the bird of the heavens and the beast are in flight and are gone.

†[GNT] I said, "I will mourn for the mountains and weep for the pastures, because they have dried up, and no one travels through them. The sound of livestock is no longer heard; birds and wild animals have fled and gone."

†[NIV]I will weep and wail for the mountains and take up a lament concerning the desert pastures. They are desolate and untraveled, and the lowing of cattle is not heard. The birds of the air have fled and the animals are gone.

本会注释　　为。“因”。本节和以下几节描写土地荒凉的惨景，及其居民的被掳。
　　山岭。指山坡的梯田，本来是精心耕作，果实累累的，却变得贫瘠荒芜。
　　草场（ne'oth）。“牧场”或“住处”。曾经是布满牛羊，却要变得完全荒凉，连雀鸟也找不到生存之地。
　　哀号（qinah）。“悲歌”或“挽歌”。关于qinah 的诗体特性，见《SDA圣经注释》卷三第27页。唱哀歌的是第17节所提到的专业哀哭的妇女。
　　牲畜（miqneh）。常用来泛指家畜，如牛，山羊，绵羊，马，驴和骆驼。

耶9:11 我必使耶路撒冷变为乱堆，为野狗的住处，也必使犹大的城邑变为荒场，无人居住。 (串)赛25:2|赛13:22;34:13耶10:22

†[吕]我必使耶路撒冷变成乱堆，作为野狗的住处；我必使犹大的城市荒凉，无人居住。

†[思]我要使耶路撒冷成为废墟，成为豺狼的巢穴；使犹大的城市荒凉，无人居住。

†[当代]“我要使耶路撒冷成为废墟、成为野狗出没的地方；也要使犹大的城邑荒凉，不见人烟。”

†[新译]“我要使耶路撒冷变成乱堆，成为野狗的巢穴；我要使犹大的城市荒凉，无人居住。”

†[Wlb]我必使耶路撒冷为墟、作野犬之居所、犹大诸邑荒芜、无人居处、

†[Xdv]上主说：我要使耶路撒冷荒废，成为野狗的窝；我要使犹大各城镇荒凉，再没有人居住。

†[Kjv]And I will make Jerusalem heaps, and a den of dragons; and I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant.

†[Nkjv]"I will make Jerusalem a heap of ruins, a den of jackals. I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant."

†[BBE]And I will make Jerusalem a mass of broken stones, the living-place of jackals; and I will make the towns of Judah a waste, with no man living there.

†[GNT] The Lord says, "I will make Jerusalem a pile of ruins, a place where jackals live; the cities of Judah will become a desert, a place where no one lives."

†[NIV]I will make Jerusalem a heap of ruins, a haunt of jackals; and I will lay waste the towns of Judah so no one can live there."

本会注释　　乱堆。堆着垃圾石块的废墟（见耶51:37）。
　　野狗（tannim）。见耶10:22；49:33；51:37）。不是tannin （“大鱼”，创1:21；诗148:7），或“蛇”（出7:9,10）。

耶9:12 谁是智慧人，可以明白这事？耶和华的口向谁说过，使他可以传说？遍地为何灭亡，干焦好象旷野，甚至无人经过呢？ (串)诗107:43何14:9

†[吕]谁是智慧人可以明白这事？永恒主的口向谁说过，使他可以传说：遍地为什么灭没、荒废像野地，无人经过呢？

†[思]谁够聪明，能明白这事？上主亲口吩咐谁公布这事？“为什么这地方遭受毁灭，荒芜得有如无人经过的旷野？”

†[当代]谁有智慧去明白这事呢？主口中的话可向谁说、使他可以宣布出来呢？为什么地被蹂躏、被弃为荒野、无人经过呢？

†[新译]谁是智慧人可以解明这事？耶和华的口向谁说过，以致他可以传讲这事？为什么这地被毁坏，像旷野般荒凉，无人经过呢？

†[Wlb]孰为智者、克明斯事、耶和华与谁言、使之宣告、斯土何为被毁遭焚、有若旷野、无人经之、

†[Xdv]我问：“上主啊，为什么这土地荒废，像沙漠干旱，没有人烟呢？谁够聪明，能明白这道理呢？你曾向谁说明，使他能向别人解释呢？”

†[Kjv]Who is the wise man, that may understand this? and who is he to whom the mouth of the LORD hath spoken, that he may declare it, for what the land perisheth and is burned up like a wilderness, that none passeth through?

†[Nkjv]Who is the wise man who may understand this? And who is he to whom the mouth of the LORD has spoken, that he may declare it? Why does the land perish and burn up like a wilderness, so that no one can pass through?

†[BBE]Who is the wise man able to see this? who is he to whom the word of the Lord has come, so that he may make it clear? why is the land given to destruction and burned up like a waste place, so that no one goes through?

†[GNT] I asked, "Lord, why is the land devastated and dry as a desert, so that no one travels through it? Who is wise enough to understand this? To whom have you explained it so that they can tell others?"

†[NIV]What man is wise enough to understand this? Who has been instructed by the Lord and can explain it? Why has the land been ruined and laid waste like a desert that no one can cross?

本会注释　　谁是智慧人？现在要哲人和先知说出民族遭灾的原因（见耶8:8,9）。
　　为何？要求解释“这事”。问题是：“为什么土地遭到毁坏，变成一片荒野？”

耶9:13 耶和华说：“因为这百姓离弃我，在他们面前所设立的律法没有遵行，也没有听从我的话；

†[吕]永恒主说：“因为他们撇弃了我的律法，我所摆在他们面前的，而他们不听我的声音，也没有遵行，

†[思]上主说：因为他们离弃了我给他们立定的法律，没有听从我的声音，没有按照法律而行；

†[当代]主说：“因为他们弃绝我在他们面前所立的律法，又不听从我的话，不遵命而行。

†[新译]耶和华说：“这是因为他们离弃了我摆在他们面前的律法，不听从我的话，没有遵行我的律法；

†[Wlb]耶和华曰、缘彼弃我所示之律、不听我言、不行我道、

†[Xdv]上主回答：“这是因为我的子民背弃了我的教训，不听从我的话，不实行我的命令。

†[Kjv]And the LORD saith, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein;

†[Nkjv]And the LORD said, "Because they have forsaken My law which I set before them, and have not obeyed My voice, nor walked according to it,

†[BBE]And the Lord said, Because they have given up my law which I put before them, giving no attention to my voice and not being guided by it;

†[GNT] The Lord answered, "This has happened because my people have abandoned the teaching that I gave them. They have not obeyed me or done what I told them.

†[NIV]The Lord said, "It is because they have forsaken my law, which I set before them; they have not obeyed me or followed my law.

本会注释　　因为。耶和华亲自回答第12节的问题。
　　律法（torah）。这是一个广义词，指“教训”，“指示”，以及先知的教诲（见耶18:18；26:4,5；见@申31:9@；@箴3:1@注释）。

本会注释　　顽梗（sheriruth）。在希伯来语的圣经中，该词都是这个含总义（见耶3:17；7:24；11:8；16:12；18:12等）。
　　众巴力。（见耶2:8,23）。他们的列祖没有教导他们耶和华的律法（见申11:19），却教他们去随从假神，如毗珥的巴力（见申4:3）、以革伦的巴力-西卜（王下1:2）和腓尼基的巴力（王上16:31,32）。见@何2:17@注释。

本会注释　　万军之耶和华。见@耶7:3@注释。
　　应当思想。或“举止审慎”。
　　唱哀歌的妇女（meqonnoth）。见第10节注释。当家里死了人时，就雇来哀哭的人哭丧。他们披头散发，撕裂衣服，表示伤心（见代下35:25；传12:5；摩5:16；太9:23；可5:38）。耶利米把民族的灾难描写成已经发生的，并提议为死者举行哀悼。
　　善哭的。直译是“智慧的”，指她们善于哀哭。她们巧妙地述说死者的优点，打动活着之人的心（见耶22:18）。

耶9:18 叫他们速速为我们举哀，使我们眼泪汪汪，使我们的眼皮涌出水来。 (串)耶14:17

†[NIV]The sound of wailing is heard from Zion: 'How ruined we are! How great is our shame! We must leave our land because our houses are in ruins.' "

本会注释　　败落（shadad）。“毁坏”。
　　惭愧。即“羞愧”。
　　抛下地土。或“离开地土”，不是自愿的。
　　拆毁。英文KJV版为“我们的房屋驱逐了我们”。说房屋赶出了其邪恶的居民（见利18:28；20:22）。

本会注释　　妇女们哪。可能指第17节所提到雇来哀哭的人，也可能指当地所有的妇女。
　　当教导你们的儿女。死亡的人数极多（第21节），一般受过训练的哀哭者数量不足。所以这些人要把技术传授给儿女儿和邻居。

†[Kjv]For death is come up into our windows, and is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets.

†[Nkjv]For death has come through our windows, Has entered our palaces, To kill off the children--no longer to be outside! And the young men--no longer on the streets!

†[BBE]For death has come up into our windows, forcing its way into our great houses; cutting off the children in the streets and the young men in the wide places.

耶9:22 你当说，耶和华如此说：人的尸首必倒在田野象粪土，又象收割的人遗落的一把禾稼，无人收取。 (串)耶8:2;16:4

†[吕]人的尸体必仆倒像粪土在田野上面，又像收割人所躐下的成行禾捆，无人收取。

†[思]你应这样说──上主的断语──人的体僵卧着，好像在田野的粪堆；又像遗留在收割者后面无人拾取的麦束。

†[当代]你要说：“主这样说：‘人的尸骸必散布在田野上，像粪堆一样；又像收割的人所遗留的麦穗，无人捡拾。’”

†[新译]你要这样说（这是耶和华的宣告）：“人的尸体横卧着，像田野上的粪肥，又像遗留在收割者后面的麦穗，无人拾取。”

†[Wlb]当告之曰、耶和华云、人尸必若粪土、僵于田间、又如禾束、遗于刈者之后、无人拾之、

†[Xdv]遍地横尸，像田野里的粪堆，像割下的麦穗，没人捡起。上主命令我这样宣布了。

†[Kjv]Speak, Thus saith the LORD, Even the carcases of men shall fall as dung upon the open field, and as the handful after the harvestman, and none shall gather them.

†[Nkjv]Speak, "Thus says the LORD: "Even the carcasses of men shall fall as refuse on the open field, Like cuttings after the harvester, And no one shall gather them."'

†[BBE]The bodies of men will be falling like waste on the open fields, and like grain dropped by the grain-cutter, and no one will take them up.

†[GNT] Dead bodies are scattered everywhere, like piles of manure on the fields, like grain cut and left behind by the reapers, grain that no one gathers. This is what the Lord has told me to say."

†[NIV]Say, "This is what the Lord declares: " 'The dead bodies of men will lie like refuse on the open field, like cut grain behind the reaper, with no one to gather them.' "

本会注释　　像粪土。比喻疏忽和藐视尸体（耶8:2；16:4；25:33；参王下9:37）。
　　收割的人遗落的一把。就像收割者身后新割下的庄稼一样，遍地都躺着残忍的收割者所击杀的人。不同之处是，谷粒会收集起来，而这些死尸却原地躺着，或遭到轻蔑的践踏。

耶9:23 耶和华如此说：“智慧人不要因他的智慧夸口，勇士不要因他的勇力夸口，财主不要因他的财物夸口。 (串)林前1:31林后10:17|传9:11

†[吕]永恒主这么说：智慧人不要夸耀自己的智慧，勇士不要夸耀自己的勇力，财主也不要夸耀自己的财富；

本会注释　　夸口。见王上20:11；诗52:1；箴27:1等。先知指出了自夸之物的虚妄。人所夸口的手段在荒凉的日子将毫无用处。
　　智慧。可能主要指政治家的智慧，策略和远见。但依赖人的智慧是十分愚蠢的，因为它既片面又不稳定（见箴3:5；林前13:9,10）。
　　勇力。士气，兵力，武器和装备都是有限的。
　　财物。财富不能作为夸口的依据。“钱财必长翅膀，如鹰向天飞去”（箴23:5）。

耶9:24 夸口的却因他有聪明，认识我是耶和华，又知道我喜悦在世上施行慈爱、公平，和公义，以此夸口。这是耶和华说的。” (串)弥6:8;7:18

†[思]凡要夸耀的，只应在“知道和认识我”这件事上夸耀，因为在地上是我，上主，施行仁慈、公道和正义，因为我喜爱这些事──上主的断语。

†[当代]如果有人要夸口，就让他夸口自己认识我是主，也知道我是喜欢在地上施行慈爱、公平和正义的主。”

†[新译]夸口的却要因了解我，认识我而夸口；认识我是耶和华，我在地上施行慈爱、公正、公义；因为我喜悦这些事。”这是耶和华的宣告。

†[Kjv]But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD.

†[Nkjv]But let him who glories glory in this, That he understands and knows Me, That I am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight," says the LORD.

†[BBE]But if any man has pride, let it be in this, that he has the wisdom to have knowledge of me, that I am the Lord, working mercy, giving true decisions, and doing righteousness in the earth: for in these things I have delight, says the Lord.

†[NIV]but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord , who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight," declares the Lord .

本会注释　　夸口的却因他有聪明。真正聪明的人只赞美上帝，从不赞美自己（见第23节注释）。只有认识上帝才是夸口的依据（见林前1:31；林后10:17）。唯有认识上帝的人才有真智慧，因为它意味着永生（约17:3）。这种认识有理性的一面。人与上帝的关系有着理性的基础，而不是盲从。人要尽心尽性事奉上帝（太22:37）。但认识上帝不单是理论上的理解，而是实际的体验。它表现在遵从上帝的道上（见伯22:21；耶22:16）。
　　慈爱（chesed）。“上帝的爱”（见诗36章补充注释）。上帝希望人了解祂的品性。
　　公平（mishpat）。见@耶5:4@；@诗119:7@注释。
　　以此夸口。上帝乐意彰显这些品德，并看到它们反映在祂子民身上（见弥6:8；7:18）。

†[NIV]The days are coming," declares the Lord , "when I will punish all who are circumcised only in the flesh-

本会注释　　这句话令人难解，似乎是说“没有受割礼的受割礼者”（对@耶4:4@注释）。指外表上虽受过割礼，内心却没有得到相应的洁净。这种献身给上帝的标志，本身并没有什么价值，除非把内心也献上（见耶4:4；参申10:16；30:6；罗2:25,28,29；林前7:19；加5:6；6:15；西2:11）。

本会注释　　埃及、犹大、以东。把犹大列在埃及和以东中间，表明她的堕落。
　　剃周围头发的。某些民族，如北阿拉伯的基达族（见@耶49:28,32@注释），有在鬓角边剃掉一圈头发的习惯。这种做法有宗教的含性，在希伯来人中是禁止的（见利19:27；21:5）。希罗多德（iii.8）在叙述阿拉伯人时说：“他们说自己的头发剪成巴库斯（希腊罗马的酒神）的样子；但他们是在鬓角边剪成圆形的。”
　　列国人。先知可能指所有的外邦国家。犹大人在心中没有受割礼，所以在上帝眼中并不比外邦人好。他们同样难逃上帝的惩罚。
