The survivors who escape to the mountains will moan like doves, weeping for their sins.

其中所逃脱的就必逃脱，各人因自己的罪孽在山上发出悲声，好像谷中的鸽子哀鸣。

其中幸存的要逃脱，各人因自己的罪孽在山上发出悲声，如谷中的鸽子哀鸣；

其中幸存的要逃脱，各人因自己的罪孽在山上发出悲声，如谷中的鸽子哀鸣；

侥幸逃到山上的，都必像谷中哀鸣的鸽子，为自己的罪恶哭泣。

他们中间逃脱的，必因自己的罪孽在山上发出哀声，像谷中的鸽子哀鸣一样。

其中所逃脫的就必逃脫，各人因自己的罪孽在山上發出悲聲，好像谷中的鴿子哀鳴。

其中倖存的要逃脫，各人因自己的罪孽在山上發出悲聲，如谷中的鴿子哀鳴；

其中倖存的要逃脫，各人因自己的罪孽在山上發出悲聲，如谷中的鴿子哀鳴；

僥倖逃到山上的，都必像谷中哀鳴的鴿子，為自己的罪惡哭泣。

他們中間逃脫的，必因自己的罪孽在山上發出哀聲，像谷中的鴿子哀鳴一樣。

他們中間逃跑的必逃脫，必到山上，像平谷中的鴿子，沉吟哀鳴着，各為自己的罪罰而哀鳴。

其中得脫者、必在山上、若谷中之班鳩、各以其罪而哀鳴、

或有免於難者、各自怨艾、逃避於山、若斑鳩歸谷、

逃遁得脫者、流離山間、各為己罪哀號、如谷中之鴿哀鳴、

The fugitives who escape will flee to the mountains. Like doves of the valleys, they will all moan, each for their own sins.

All those who escape and are left alive will run to the mountains. They will sound like doves of the valley when they cry over their sins.

And if any survivors escape, they will be on the mountains, like doves of the valleys, all of them moaning, each one over his iniquity.

The survivors among them will escape and live on the mountains. Like doves of the valley, all of them will moan, each over his own iniquity.

Even when their survivors escape, they will be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them moaning, each over his own wrongdoing.

‘ Those who survive will escape and be on the mountains Like doves of the valleys, All of them mourning, Each for his iniquity.

But those of them that escape shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them moaning, every one in his iniquity.

The survivors among them will escape and live on the mountains like doves of the valley, all of them moaning, each over his own iniquity.

But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every one for his iniquity.

Their survivors will escape to the mountains and become like doves of the valleys; all of them will moan– each one for his iniquity.

But those of those who escape, they will escape and will be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them moaning, everyone in his iniquity.

O Lord, God of Israel, you are just. We come before you in our guilt as nothing but an escaped remnant, though in such a condition none of us can stand in your presence.”

Delirious, I chattered like a swallow or a crane, and then I moaned like a mourning dove. My eyes grew tired of looking to heaven for help. I am in trouble, Lord. Help me!”

We growl like hungry bears; we moan like mournful doves. We look for justice, but it never comes. We look for rescue, but it is far away from us.

And you who are left in Judah, who have escaped the ravages of the siege, will put roots down in your own soil and grow up and flourish.

“ But I will let a few of my people escape destruction, and they will be scattered among the nations of the world.Then when they are exiled among the nations, they will remember me. They will recognize how hurt I am by their unfaithful hearts and lustful eyes that long for their idols. Then at last they will hate themselves for all their detestable sins.

Only a small number will escape death and return to Judah from Egypt. Then all those who came to Egypt will find out whose words are true— mine or theirs!

Then you will remember your past sins and despise yourselves for all the detestable things you did.

Tears of joy will stream down their faces, and I will lead them home with great care. They will walk beside quiet streams and on smooth paths where they will not stumble. For I am Israel’s father, and Ephraim is my oldest child.

Of that remnant who fled to Egypt, hoping someday to return to Judah, there will be no survivors. Even though they long to return home, only a handful will do so.”

I have heard Israel saying,‘ You disciplined me severely, like a calf that needs training for the yoke. Turn me again to you and restore me, for you alone are the Lord my God.I turned away from God, but then I was sorry. I kicked myself for my stupidity! I was thoroughly ashamed of all I did in my younger days.’

In the end you will groan in anguish when disease consumes your body.You will say,“ How I hated discipline! If only I had not ignored all the warnings!Oh, why didn’t I listen to my teachers? Why didn’t I pay attention to my instructors?I have come to the brink of utter ruin, and now I must face public disgrace.”

“ Then I will pour out a spirit of grace and prayer on the family of David and on the people of Jerusalem. They will look on me whom they have pierced and mourn for him as for an only son. They will grieve bitterly for him as for a firstborn son who has died.The sorrow and mourning in Jerusalem on that day will be like the great mourning for Hadad rimmon in the valley of Megiddo.“ All Israel will mourn, each clan by itself, and with the husbands separate from their wives. The clan of David will mourn alone, as will the clan of Nathan,the clan of Levi, and the clan of Shimei.Each of the surviving clans from Judah will mourn separately, and with the husbands separate from their wives.

If the Lord of Heaven’s Armies had not spared a few of us, we would have been wiped out like Sodom, destroyed like Gomorrah.

“ In those coming days,” says the Lord,“ the people of Israel will return home together with the people of Judah. They will come weeping and seeking the Lord their God.They will ask the way to Jerusalem and will start back home again. They will bind themselves to the Lord with an eternal covenant that will never be forgotten.
