Therefore the Holy One of Israel says:“ Because you have rejected this message and have trusted in oppression and deceit, and have depended on them,

所以，以色列的圣者如此说：“因为你们藐视这训诲的话，倚赖欺压和乖僻，以此为可靠的，

所以，以色列的圣者如此说：“因你们藐视这话，倚赖欺压和诡诈，以此为可靠，

所以，以色列的圣者如此说：“因你们藐视这话，倚赖欺压和诡诈，以此为可靠，

因此，以色列的圣者说，‘因为你们藐视我的话，依仗欺压之能和诡诈之术，

因此，以色列的圣者这样说：“因为你们弃绝了这话，反而信赖欺压和乖僻的手段，更以此为倚靠，

因此，以色列的圣者如此说：“因为你们厌弃了这话，依靠欺压和邪僻，以它们为依赖；

所以，以色列的聖者如此說：因為你們藐視這訓誨的話，倚賴欺壓和乖僻，以此為可靠的，

所以，以色列的聖者如此說：「因你們藐視這話，倚賴欺壓和詭詐，以此為可靠，

所以，以色列的聖者如此說：「因你們藐視這話，倚賴欺壓和詭詐，以此為可靠，

因此，以色列的聖者說，『因為你們藐視我的話，依仗欺壓之能和詭詐之術，

因此，以色列的聖者這樣說：“因為你們棄絕了這話，反而信賴欺壓和乖僻的手段，更以此為倚靠，

因此以色列之聖者這麼說：『你們棄絕了這話語，而倚賴欺壓和乖僻，去依靠它，

因此，以色列的聖者如此說：「因為你們厭棄了這話，依靠欺壓和邪僻，以它們為依賴；

故以色列之聖者曰、爾輕視斯言、惟暴虐乖戾是恃、

故以色列族之聖主告爾曰、爾棄斯道、強暴妄作、以此自恃。

故以色列聖主如是云、爾棄此命、恃強暴、賴偽妄、偽妄或作奸惡之事

Therefore this is what the Holy One of Israel says:“ Because you have rejected this message, relied on oppression and depended on deceit,

So the Holy One of Israel speaks. He says,“ You have turned your backs on what I have said. You have depended on telling people lies. You have crushed others.

Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel,“ Because you despise this word and trust in oppression and perverseness and rely on them,

This is the reply of the Holy One of Israel:“ Because you despise what I tell you and trust instead in oppression and lies,

Therefore this is what the Holy One of Israel says:“ Since you have rejected this word And have put your trust in oppression and crookedness, and have relied on them,

Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel:“ Because you despise this word, And trust in oppression and perversity, And rely on them,

Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely thereon;

Therefore the Holy One of Israel says:“ Because you have rejected this message and have trusted in oppression and deceit, and have depended on them,

Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:

For this reason this is what the Holy One of Israel says:“ You have rejected this message; you trust instead in your ability to oppress and trick, and rely on that kind of behavior.

Therefore the Holy One of Israel says,“ Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely on it,

Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes straw and as dry grass shrivels in the flame, so their roots will become like something rotten and their blossoms will blow away like dust, for they have rejected the instruction of the LORD of Armies, and they have despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

You were secure in your wickedness; you said,‘ No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and knowledge led you astray. You said to yourself,‘ I am, and there is no one else.’

For the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, has said:“ You will be delivered by returning and resting; your strength will lie in quiet confidence. But you are not willing.”You say,“ No! We will escape on horses”— therefore you will escape!— and,“ We will ride on fast horses”— but those who pursue you will be faster.One thousand will flee at the threat of one, at the threat of five you will flee, until you remain like a solitary pole on a mountaintop or a banner on a hill.

Place no trust in oppression or false hope in robbery. If wealth increases, don’t set your heart on it.

Egypt’s help is completely worthless; therefore, I call her: Rahab Who Just Sits.

This is your lot, what I have decreed for you— this is the LORD’s declaration— because you have forgotten me and trusted in lies.

Woe to the rebellious children! This is the LORD’s declaration. They carry out a plan, but not mine; they make an alliance, but against my will, piling sin on top of sin.

For you said,“ We have made a covenant with Death, and we have an agreement with Sheol; when the overwhelming catastrophe passes through, it will not touch us, because we have made falsehood our refuge and have hidden behind treachery.”

Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help and who depend on horses! They trust in the abundance of chariots and in the large number of horsemen. They do not look to the Holy One of Israel, and they do not seek the LORD.But he also is wise and brings disaster. He does not go back on what he says; he will rise up against the house of the wicked and against the allies of evildoers.Egyptians are men, not God; their horses are flesh, not spirit. When the LORD raises his hand to strike, the helper will stumble and the one who is helped will fall; both will perish together.

The LORD says: I will not relent from punishing Judah for three crimes, even four, because they have rejected the instruction of the LORD and have not kept his statutes. The lies that their ancestors followed have led them astray.

Why then have you despised the LORD’s command by doing what I consider evil? You struck down Uriah the Hethite with the sword and took his wife as your own wife— you murdered him with the Ammonite’s sword.Now therefore, the sword will never leave your house because you despised me and took the wife of Uriah the Hethite to be your own wife.’

“ Here is the man who would not make God his refuge, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, taking refuge in his destructive behavior.”

Consequently, anyone who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.

Whoever listens to you listens to me. Whoever rejects you rejects me. And whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me.”

For the vineyard of the LORD of Armies is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah, the plant he delighted in. He expected justice but saw injustice; he expected righteousness but heard cries of despair.
