主耶和華曰、既以艱難試我民、彼又不畏長上、其國必致淪亡。

“‘ Testing will surely come. And what if even the scepter, which the sword despises, does not continue? declares the Sovereign Lord.’

“ You can be sure that testing will come. Why does the sword look down on the scepter? Because even the scepter will not continue to rule,” announces the Lord and King.

It will put them all to the test. What chance do they have? says the Sovereign Lord.

Surely it will be a trial! And what if the sword despises even the scepter? The scepter will not continue.” This is the declaration of the Lord GOD.

For there is a testing; and what if even the rod which despises will cease to be?” declares the Lord God.

“‘ For testing will come, and what will happen when the scepter, which the sword despises, is no more? declares the sovereign LORD.’

刃磨利以行殺戮、磨光以能閃爍、我儕豈可喜樂哉、其刃為罰我子民而備、因藐視杖責、

惟爾以色列之君、褻慢作惡、爾之罪愆貫盈、受報之日已至、

彼在患難多試之間、仍然多樂、在極貧之中、亦彰其施濟之厚、

天主若忽焉降災、誅戮世人、不顧無辜者受難、
