“ As for you, son of man, your people are talking together about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses, saying to each other,‘ Come and hear the message that has come from the Lord.’

“ Son of man, your people are talking about you. They are getting together by the walls of their houses and at their doors. They are saying to one another,‘ Come. Listen to the Lord’ s message.’

“ As for you, son of man, your people who talk together about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses, say to one another, each to his brother,‘ Come, and hear what the word is that comes from the Lord.’

“ Son of man, your people talk about you in their houses and whisper about you at the doors. They say to each other,‘ Come on, let’s go hear the prophet tell us what the Lord is saying!’

“ As for you, son of man, your people are talking about you near the city walls and in the doorways of their houses. One person speaks to another, each saying to his brother,‘ Come and hear what the message is that comes from the LORD!’

“ But as for you, son of man, your fellow citizens who talk with one another about you by the walls and in the doorways of the houses, speak one with another, each with his brother, saying,‘ Come now and hear what the message is that comes from the Lord.’

“ As for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking about you beside the walls and in the doors of the houses; and they speak to one another, everyone saying to his brother,‘ Please come and hear what the word is that comes from the Lord.’

And as for thee, son of man, the children of thy people talk of thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from Jehovah.

“ Now, son of man, your people are talking about you near the city walls and in the doorways of their houses. One person speaks to another, each saying to his brother,‘ Come and hear what the message is that comes from the Lord!’

Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD.

“ But as for you, son of man, your people( who are talking about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses) say to one another,‘ Come hear the word that comes from the LORD.’

「這人民用嘴脣尊敬我，心卻遠離我；

便差遣他們的門徒同希律黨人來見耶穌，說：『先生，我們曉得你很真誠；你以真誠教授上帝的道路；甚麼人你都不在乎，因為你不看人的外貌。那麼請告訴我們，你以為怎樣；納丁稅給羅馬皇帝該撒可以不可以？』

主說：『這人民既只是口頭上親近我，嘴脣上尊敬我，心卻遠離着我；他們之敬畏我、不過是死記着人所吩咐的罷了；

他們天天尋求的乃是我！他們喜歡明白的是我的道路！他們好像行義之國的人！不離棄他們的上帝之典章的！他們向我求問公義的審判，他們喜歡親近上帝呢！

你們各人對鄰舍、各人對弟兄要這麼說：「永恆主回答了甚麼」，「永恆主說了甚麼話」。

你們作錯了事以自害了；因為你們請我去見永恆主你們的上帝，說：願你為我們禱告永恆主我們的上帝，照永恆主我們的上帝所說的一切話告訴我們，我們都必照樣遵行，

眾將軍和加利亞的兒子約哈難、跟何沙雅的兒子亞撒利雅以及眾民、從小的到大的、都進前來，對神言人耶利米說：『願你允准我們在你面前所懇求的，為我們這餘剩之民禱告永恆主你的上帝；因為我們由眾多餘剩到稀少，這是你親眼看見的；願永恆主你的上帝指示我們所應當走的路，所應該作的事。』神言人耶利米對他們說：『我聽見了；看吧，我必照你們的話禱告永恆主你們的上帝；無論永恆主回答你甚麼話、我都要告訴你們，一點也不留住。』於是他們對耶利米說：『我們若不照永恆主你的上帝所差遣你來說的一切話行，願永恆主做真實而可靠的見證來責罰我們。我們現在請你到永恆主我們的上帝面前，他說的是福是禍、我們都要聽從，好使我們因聽從永恆主我們的上帝的聲音而平安無事。』

永恆主指點我知，我就知道；那時你將他們所行的指給我看。我卻像柔順的羊羔，被牽到屠殺之地。我並不知道他們設計謀是要害死我；他們說：『我們來把樹連樹汁都滅掉，將他從活人之地剪除掉，使他的名不再被記念。』

他們就說：『來吧，我們來設計謀害耶利米；因為祭司有禮節規矩，智慧人有謀略，神言人有話語，都不能斷絕掉。來吧，我們用口舌攻擊他，他的甚麼話、我們都別理它。』
