16:1

ἀποστελῶ ὡς ἑρπετὰ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν μὴ πέτρα ἔρημός ἐστιν τὸ ὄρος Σιων

I will send as it were creeping things upon the land. Is the mountain of Sion a desolate rock?

我要打發如同爬蟲的往那地去。錫安山豈是荒涼的磐石麼？

16:2

ἔσῃ γὰρ ὡς πετεινοῦ ἀνιπταμένου νεοσσὸς ἀφῃρημένος θύγατερ Μωαβ ἔπειτα δέ Αρνων

For you shall be like a nestling taken away from a bird that flies up, O daughter of Moab; and afterwards, Arnon.

摩押的女子啊，你必像從飛起的鳥身邊被奪去的雛鳥；此後就是亞嫩。

16:3

πλείονα βουλεύου ποιεῖτε σκέπην πένθους αὐτῇ διὰ παντός ἐν μεσημβρινῇ σκοτίᾳ φεύγουσιν ἐξέστησαν μὴ ἀπαχθῇς

Take further counsel; make for her a shelter of mourning continually; in the darkness at midday they flee, they are dismayed. Do not be led away.

要多多籌算，常為她設立居喪的蔭庇；他們在正午的黑暗中逃跑，驚惶失措。不要被擄去。

16:4

παροικήσουσίν σοι οἱ φυγάδες Μωαβ ἔσονται σκέπη ὑμῖν ἀπὸ προσώπου διώκοντος ὅτι ἤρθη ἡ συμμαχία σου καὶ ὁ ἄρχων ἀπώλετο ὁ καταπατῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς

The fugitives of Moab shall sojourn with you; they shall be a shelter to you from the face of the pursuer; for your alliance has been taken away, and the ruler who trampled upon the land has perished.

摩押逃亡的人必寄居在你那裡；他們必成為你們的蔭庇，躲避那追趕的。因為你的盟約已被除去，那踐踏地的掌權者也已滅亡。

16:5

καὶ διορθωθήσεται μετ’ ἐλέους θρόνος καὶ καθίεται ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ μετὰ ἀληθείας ἐν σκηνῇ Δαυιδ κρίνων καὶ ἐκζητῶν κρίμα καὶ σπεύδων δικαιοσύνην

And a throne shall be set right with mercy, and one shall sit upon it with truth in the tent of Dauid, judging and seeking judgement and pursuing righteousness.

必有寶座因憐憫得以堅立，必有一位憑真實坐在其上，在大衛的帳幕裡施行審判，尋求公理，急行公義。

16:6

ἠκούσαμεν τὴν ὕβριν Μωαβ ὑβριστὴς σφόδρα τὴν ὑπερηφανίαν ἐξῆρας οὐχ οὕτως ἡ μαντεία σου

We have heard of the insolence of Moab; he is exceedingly insolent. You have removed your arrogance; your divination is not so.

我們聽見摩押的狂傲——他極其狂傲。你已除掉你的驕傲；你的占卜並非如此。

16:7

οὐχ οὕτως ὀλολύξει Μωαβ ἐν γὰρ τῇ Μωαβίτιδι πάντες ὀλολύξουσιν τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Δεσεθ μελετήσεις καὶ οὐκ ἐντραπήσῃ

Moab shall not wail so; for in the land of Moab all shall wail. For the inhabitants of Deseth you shall meditate, and you shall not be put to shame.

摩押必不這樣哀號；因為在摩押地，眾人都要哀號。你要為住在德塞的人沉思，卻不至於羞愧。

16:8

τὰ πεδία Εσεβων πενθήσει ἄμπελος Σεβαμα καταπίνοντες τὰ ἔθνη καταπατήσατε τὰς ἀμπέλους αὐτῆς ἕως Ιαζηρ οὐ μὴ συνάψητε πλανήθητε τὴν ἔρημον οἱ ἀπεσταλμένοι ἐγκατελείφθησαν διέβησαν γὰρ τὴν ἔρημον

The plains of Esebon shall mourn, the vine of Sebama. You who swallow up the nations, trample down her vines as far as Iazer. You shall not join together; wander in the wilderness. Those who were sent have been forsaken, for they crossed the wilderness.

希實本的平原必悲哀，西比瑪的葡萄樹也必如此。吞滅列國的啊，你們要踐踏她的葡萄樹，直到雅謝。你們必不能會合；要在曠野中飄流。奉差遣的人被撇棄了，因為他們已經過了曠野。

16:9

διὰ τοῦτο κλαύσομαι ὡς τὸν κλαυθμὸν Ιαζηρ ἄμπελον Σεβαμα τὰ δένδρα σου κατέβαλεν Εσεβων καὶ Ελεαλη ὅτι ἐπὶ τῷ θερισμῷ καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ τρυγήτῳ σου καταπατήσω καὶ πάντα πεσοῦνται

Therefore I will weep as with the weeping of Iazer for the vine of Sebama. Esebon and Eleale have cast down your trees; for upon your harvest and upon your vintage I will tread, and all shall fall.

因此我要為西比瑪的葡萄樹哀哭，像雅謝的哀哭一樣。希實本和以利亞利砍倒了你的樹木；因為我必踐踏你的收割與你的收成，一切都要倒下。
