当那些日子，我使犹大和耶路撒冷被掳之人归回的时候，
For indeed, in those days and at that time / When I turn the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,

我要聚集万民，带他们下到约沙法谷；为了我的百姓，就是我的产业以色列，我要在那里审判他们，因为他们把我的百姓分散在列国中，又分取我的地土；
I will gather all the nations / And will bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat; / And I will enter into judgment with them there / Because of My people and My inheritance Israel, / Whom they have scattered among the nations. / And they have divided My land

且为我的百姓拈阄，将童男换妓女，卖童女买酒喝。
And have cast lots for My people; / And they have given a boy for a prostitute / And sold a girl for wine to drink.

推罗、西顿和非利士全境的人哪，你们与我何干？你们要把应得的报应回报给我么？若回报给我，我必使报应速速归到你们的头上。
Indeed then, what are you to Me, Tyre and Sidon / And all the regions of Philistia? / Will you repay Me with a recompense? / But if you recompense Me, / Swiftly, speedily, / I will return your recompense upon your own head.

你们既然夺取我的金银，又将我美好的宝物带入你们庙中，
In that you have taken My silver and My gold, / And have brought My fine precious things into your temples,

并将犹大人和耶路撒冷人，卖给雅完人，赶逐他们远离自己的境界；
And have sold to the children of the Javanim / The children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem, / In order to remove them / Far from their borders;

我必激动他们离开你们所卖到之地，又必使报应归到你们的头上。
I will rouse them out of the place / To which you have sold them, / And will return your recompense upon your own head.

我必将你们的儿女卖在犹大人的手中，他们必卖给远方示巴国的人；因为耶和华已经说了。
And I will sell your sons and your daughters / Into the hand of the children of Judah, / And they will sell them to the Sabeans, / To a nation that is far off, / For Jehovah has spoken.

当在列国中宣告这话，说，要预备打仗；激动勇士；一切战士都要近前，都要上去。
Proclaim this among the nations: / Prepare the battle; / Rouse the mighty men; / Let all the men of battle / Draw near; let them go up.

要将犁头打成刀剑，将镰刀打成戈矛；软弱的要说，我有勇力。
Beat your plowshares into swords, / And your pruning knives into spears; / Let the weak say, / I am mighty.

四围的列国啊，你们要速速地来，一同聚集。耶和华啊，求你使你的大能者在那里降临！
Hurry and come, / All you surrounding nations, / And be gathered. / There cause Your mighty ones to descend, O Jehovah!

列国都当兴起，上到约沙法谷。因为我必坐在那里，审判四围的列国。
Let the nations rouse themselves and come up / To the valley of Jehoshaphat. / For there I will sit to judge / All the surrounding nations.

伸出镰刀吧，因为庄稼熟了；前来践踏吧，因为酒醡满了；酒池盈溢，因为他们的罪恶甚大。
Send forth the sickle, / For the harvest is ripe; / Come, tread, / For the winepress is full; / The wine vats overflow, / For their evil is great.

许多许多的人在断定谷；因为耶和华的日子临近断定谷。
Multitudes, multitudes, / In the valley of decision; / For the day of Jehovah has drawn near / In the valley of decision.

日月昏暗，星宿无光。
The sun and the moon grow dark, / And the stars withdraw their shining.

耶和华必从锡安吼叫，从耶路撒冷发声，天地就震动。耶和华却要作祂百姓的避难所，作以色列人的保障。
And Jehovah will roar from Zion, / And from Jerusalem He will utter His voice, / And the heavens and the earth will shake. / But Jehovah will be a shelter to His people / And a stronghold to the children of Israel.

你们就知道我是耶和华你们的神，住在锡安我的圣山。那时，耶路撒冷必成为圣，外人不再从其中经过。
Thus you will know that I am Jehovah your God, / Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain. / And Jerusalem will be holy, / And strangers will pass through her no longer.

到那日，大山要滴新酒，小山要流奶；犹大一切的溪河都有水流，必有泉源从耶和华的殿中流出来，浇灌什亭谷。
And in that day / The mountains will drop down fresh wine, / And the hills will flow with milk; / And all the waterways of Judah / Will flow with water, / And a fountain will go forth from the house of Jehovah, / And it will water the valley of Shittim.

埃及必然荒凉，以东变为荒凉的旷野，都因向犹大人所行的强暴，因他们在本地流了无辜人的血。
Egypt will be a desolation, / And Edom will be a desolate wilderness, / Because of the violence against the children of Judah, / In that they have shed innocent blood in their land.

但犹大必有人居住，直到永远；耶路撒冷必有人居住，直到万代。
But Judah will abide forever, / And Jerusalem, from generation to generation;

我未曾赦免他们流血的罪，现在我要赦免，因为耶和华住在锡安。
And I will acquit them of their bloodshed that I had not acquitted them of, / For Jehovah dwells in Zion.
