蓋時至、人將不容正教、因其耳癢而徇己慾、多集厥師、

因为时候要到，人必厌烦纯正的道理，耳朵发痒，就随从自己的情欲，增添好些师傅，

因为时候将到，那时人会厌烦健全的教导，耳朵发痒，就随心所欲地增添好些教师，

因为时候将到，那时人会厌烦健全的教导，耳朵发痒，就随心所欲地增添好些教师，

因为有一天，人们会厌倦纯正的教导，耳朵发痒，寻找许多迎合他们私欲的老师。

因为时候快要到了，人必容不下纯正的道理，反而耳朵发痒，随着自己的私欲，增添许多教师，

因为时候将到，人们容忍不了健全的教义，反要顺着自己的欲望，为自己的耳朵能被呵痒得舒服，去召聚许多教师。

因為時候要到，人必厭煩純正的道理，耳朵發癢，就隨從自己的情慾增添好些師傅，

因為時候快要到了，人必容不下純正的道理，反而耳朵發癢，隨著自己的私慾，增添許多教師，

因為時候必到，人必不容忍健全的教義，反而耳朵發癢，順着自己的私慾給自己堆積許多教師來，

因為時候將到，人們容忍不了健全的教義，反要順著自己的欲望，為自己的耳朵能被呵癢得舒服，去召聚許多教師。

蓋其後、人必厭聞正道之教、喜聽悅耳之談、狥嗜欲、多其師、

蓋後必有人厭聞正道之教、喜聽悅耳之言、狥私慾而多增其師、

蓋時有必至、將見正道不容於世矣。滔滔者將徇其私意、好新務異各師其師；

For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

The time will come when people won’t put up with true teaching. Instead, they will try to satisfy their own desires. They will gather a large number of teachers around them. The teachers will say what the people want to hear.

For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions,

For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear.

For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will multiply teachers for themselves because they have an itch to hear what they want to hear.

昔有偽先知起於民間、爾中亦將有偽師、私傳左道以陷人、拒贖之之主、自取速亡、將有多人從其淫妄、真道因之而受謗、彼由貪婪、將以飾言漁爾之利、自昔其鞫不遲、淪亡不寢、

季世有危時將至、爾宜知之、蓋人將自私、好利、矜誇、驕傲、謗讟、逆親、辜恩、邪慝、不情、搆怨、讒毀、縱欲、殘刻、疾善、奸詐、躁妄、自衒、好佚樂、不好上帝、有敬虔之貌、而無其實、若此者宜遠之、蓋若輩潛入人家、籠絡愚女、即負重罪、誘於多慾、

夫聖神特言季世將有叛道者、務於惑世之神、鬼魔之教、是由於誑者之偽、其心之良、若為爇鐵所烙、禁嫁娶、戒食物、即上帝所造、使信而洞悉真理之人、感謝而受者也、

淫亂、比頑童、拐人口、誑言、背誓、及一切違逆正教者、

是鞫也、因光臨世、而人愛暗愈於光、以其行惡也、蓋凡為惡者、惡光而不就之、恐其所行見責、惟行真理者、就光以彰其行、乃遵上帝而行焉、○

然則我以真理告爾、反成仇乎、

耶和華曰、爾宜立道中而觀、訪其古道之善者而行之、如是、則心獲安、惟彼曰、我弗由之、予立守望者以警爾、命爾聽其角聲、惟彼曰、我弗聽之、

萬軍之耶和華曰、先知預言、爾勿聽之、彼教爾以虛妄、所言之啟示、乃由己意、非出於耶和華之口、彼恆謂藐我者曰、耶和華云、爾必綏安、謂徇己心之剛愎者曰、災不及於爾身、

先知傳虛偽、祭司藉以操權、我民咸以為悅、至終爾將若之何、

如人從虛偽、尚誑言、曰、我論清酒醇醪、向爾預言、彼則可為斯民之先知焉、○

兄弟乎、我素就爾、宣上帝之奧秘、不以高言峻智、

以利亞謂民曰、耶和華之先知、僅遺我一人耳、巴力之先知、則有四百五十人、

昔謂之曰、撫綏困憊、是乃爾之安息、爾之清爽、惟彼不聽、

上帝之靈感祭司耶何耶大子撒迦利亞、乃立於上、告民曰、上帝云、爾何干耶和華之命、致不亨通、爾既棄耶和華、彼亦棄爾、民遂同謀、循王所命、以石擊斃之、於耶和華室院、如是、約阿施王不憶其父耶何耶大相待之恩、而殺其子、臨死則曰、願耶和華鑒而究之、○

蓋雅典人、及旅是邑者、不遑他務、惟於新者是言是聽、○

爾為眾所譽者禍矣、蓋其祖行於偽先知亦如是、○

且所語所宣、不在智之婉言、惟在神與能之闡明、

故耶和華怒亞瑪謝、遣先知告之曰、斯神未援其民於爾手、爾求之奚為、先知與王言時、王曰、我儕豈立爾為王之謀士、爾休矣、何為見撻、先知乃止、既而曰、我知上帝決意滅爾、因爾行此、不聽我勸戒也、○

此地愁慘頹敗、利巴嫩慚怍枯槁、沙崙成為荒野、巴珊迦密、林木凋殘、耶和華曰、我今崛起、我今勃興、我今高舉、爾將孕秕穅、產草芥、爾氣乃火、焚燬己身、

爾不信我、以我言真理也、

時、士子與祭司諸長、知此喻指己、欲執之、而懼民、

爾之先知、卜筮占夢、觀兆術士、告爾曰、爾必不至服事巴比倫王、勿聽之、

萬軍之耶和華、以色列之上帝曰、勿為爾中之先知與卜筮所惑、爾曹所夢、亦勿信從、

彼曰、其來、爾我同謀以攻耶利米、因法律不絕於祭司、謀畧不絕於哲人、預言不絕於先知、來哉、我儕以舌攻之、勿聽其言、○

約沙法謂以色列王曰、請先諮諏耶和華、以色列王乃集先知四百人、謂之曰、我往基列拉末以戰、可否、曰、往哉、上帝必付之於王手、

以色列王曰、尚有一人、音拉子米該雅、可藉之諮諏耶和華、然我憾之、因其論我之預言、有凶而無吉、約沙法曰、王勿言是、

伯特利之祭司亞瑪謝、遣人詣以色列王耶羅波安曰、阿摩司在以色列家、圖謀叛爾、彼之所言、國不能堪、蓋阿摩司曰、耶羅波安必死於刃、以色列必被虜、離其故土、亞瑪謝又謂阿摩司曰、先見歟、爾其遁往猶大地、在彼可得餬口、而預言焉、惟在伯特利勿復預言、蓋此為王之聖所、國家之宮室也、阿摩司對曰、我素非先知、亦非先知弟子、乃牧人治桑者、耶和華取我於羣羊之後、謂我曰、往哉、向我民以色列預言、今爾其聽耶和華言、爾曰勿對以色列預言、勿對以撒家發言、故耶和華曰、爾妻將在邑中為妓、爾子女將仆於刃、爾地將度以繩而被分、爾身將死於穢地、以色列必被虜、離其故土、

耶和華曰、孰獲罪於我、則塗其名於我册、

以色列王謂約沙法曰、我豈不云、彼論我之預言、有凶無吉乎、

蓋耶和華之目遍及天下、凡專心向之者、必顯其力以助之、爾所行者愚也、今而後爾必有戰事、亞撒因此怒先見、囚之於獄、斯時又虐民中數人、
