4:1
Πρωΐας δὲ γενομένης, ἰδοὺ ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων ἐκύκλωσε τὴν πόλιν.
And when morning came, behold, the host of the Chaldeans surrounded the city.
到了早晨，看哪，迦勒底人的軍隊圍困了那城。
4:2
ἐσάλπισεν δὲ ὁ μέγας ἄγγελος, λέγων· Εἰσέλθατε εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων· ἰδοὺ γὰρ ἠνεῴχθη ὑμῖν ἡ πύλη.
And the great angel sounded the trumpet, saying: Enter into the city, O host of the Chaldeans; for behold, the gate has been opened for you.
那大天使吹號說：「迦勒底的軍隊啊，進城去罷；看哪，城門已為你們開了。」
4:3
εἰσελθέτω οὖν ὁ βασιλεὺς μετὰ τοῦ πλήθους αὐτοῦ, καὶ αἰχμαλωτευσάτω πάντα τὸν λαόν.
Let the king then enter with his multitude, and take all the people captive.
於是那王同他眾多的人馬進去，擄掠了所有的百姓。
4:4
Ἰερεμίας δὲ ἄρας τὰς κλεῖδας τοῦ ναοῦ, ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἔρριψεν αὐτὰς ἐνώπιον τοῦ ἡλίου, λέγων· Σοὶ λέγω, ἥλιε, λάβε τὰς κλεῖδας τοῦ ναοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ φύλαξον αὐτὰς ἕως ἡμέρας, ἐν ᾗ ἐξετάσει σε κύριος περὶ αὐτῶν.
And Jeremiah took up the keys of the temple, and went out of the city, and cast them before the sun, saying: To you I speak, O sun, take the keys of the temple of God, and guard them until the day in which the Lord shall require them of you.
耶利米拿起殿的鑰匙，出了城，把鑰匙拋在日頭面前，說：「日頭啊，我對你說，你接過神殿的鑰匙，保守它們，直到主向你索取的那日。
4:5
διότι ἡμεῖς οὐχ εὐρέθημεν ἄξιοι τοῦ φυλάξαι αὐτάς, ὅτι ἐπίτροποι τοῦ ψεύδους ἐγενήθημεν.
For we have not been found worthy to guard them, since we have become stewards of falsehood.
因為我們不配保守它們，我們已成了虛謊的管家了。」
4:6
ἔτι κλαίοντος Ἰερεμίου τὸν λαόν, ἐξένεγκαν αὐτὸν μετὰ τοῦ λαοῦ ἕλκοντες εἰς Βαβυλῶνα.
And while Jeremiah was still weeping for the people, they led him out with the people, dragging them to Babylon.
耶利米還在為百姓哭泣的時候，他們把他和百姓一同拉了出去，擄往巴比倫。
4:7
ὁ δὲ Βαροὺχ ἐπέθηκε χοῦν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκάθισε, καὶ ἔκλαυσε τὸν θρῆνον τοῦτον, λέγων· Διὰ τί ἠρημώθη Ἰερουσαλήμ; Διὰ τὰς ἁμαρτίας τοῦ ἡγαπημένου λαοῦ παρεδόθη εἰς χεῖρας ἐχθρῶν, διὰ τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν καὶ τοῦ λαοῦ.
But Baruch put dust upon his head, and sat down, and wept this lamentation, saying: Why is Jerusalem laid waste? Because of the sins of the beloved people she was delivered into the hands of enemies, because of our sins and the sins of the people.
巴錄把塵土撒在頭上，坐下哀哭，作這哀歌說：「耶路撒冷為何荒涼了呢？是因蒙愛之民的罪，她才被交在仇敵手中，是因我們和百姓的罪。
4:8
ἀλλὰ μὴ καυχάσθωσαν οἱ παράνομοι, καὶ εἴπωσιν ὅτι, Ἰσχύσαμεν λαβεῖν τὴν πόλιν τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν τῇ δυνάμει ἡμῶν· ἀλλὰ διὰ τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν παρεδόθη ὑμῖν.
But let not the lawless boast, and say, We have prevailed to take the city of God by our own strength; rather it was because of our sins that she was delivered to you.
但願那些不法的人不要誇口，說：『我們是憑自己的力量勝過了神的城。』其實是因我們的罪，她才被交在你們手中。
4:9
ὁ δὲ θεὸς ἡμῶν οἰκτειρήσει ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἐπιστρέψει ἡμᾶς εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἡμῶν· ὑμεῖς δὲ ζωὴ οὐχ ἕξετε.
But our God will have compassion on us, and bring us back to our city; but you shall have no life.
我們的神卻必憐憫我們，使我們歸回本城；至於你們，必沒有生命。
4:10
μακάριοι εἰσιν οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν, Ἀβραάμ, Ἰσαὰκ καὶ Ἰακώβ, ὅτι ἐξῆλθον ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου τούτου, καὶ οὐκ εἶδον τὸν ἀφανισμὸν τῆς πόλεως ταύτης.
Blessed are our fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, for they departed out of this world, and did not see the destruction of this city.
我們的列祖亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各有福了，因為他們已離開這世界，沒有看見這城的毀滅。」
4:11
ταῦτα εἰπὼν Βαροὺχ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω τῆς πόλεως κλαίων καὶ λέγων ὅτι Λυπούμενος διὰ σέ, Ἰερουσαλήμ, ἐξῆλθον ἀπὸ σοῦ.
When Baruch had said these things, he went out of the city weeping and saying: Grieving because of you, O Jerusalem, I have gone out from you.
巴錄說了這些話，就哭著出城，說：「耶路撒冷啊，我為你憂傷，才從你這裡出來。」
4:12
καὶ ἔμεινεν ἐν μνημείῳ καθεζόμενος, τῶν ἀγγέλων ἐρχομένων πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ ἐκδιηγουμένων αὐτῷ περὶ πάντων ὧν ὁ κύριος ἔμηνυεν αὐτῷ δι᾽ αὐτῶν.
And he remained sitting in a tomb, while the angels came to him and recounted to him all the things which the Lord made known to him through them.
他便留在一座墳塋中坐著，有天使來到他那裡，將主藉著他們所曉諭他的一切事，都向他述說。
