“ Won’t those people laugh at the Babylonians? Won’t they make fun of them? They will say to them,“‘ How terrible it will be for you who pile up stolen goods! You get rich by cheating others. How long will this go on?’

“ But soon their captives will taunt them. They will mock them, saying,‘ What sorrow awaits you thieves! Now you will get what you deserve! You’ve become rich by extortion, but how much longer can this go on?’

當日人將為爾作哀歌、吟悲詞云、我民之業、為他人有、維彼敵人、得我田疇、我儕小民、渝胥以亡、

末期伊邇、故當廉節、儆醒祈禱、

因我耶和華震怒、巴比倫傾圮、變為荒蕪、無人居處、凡過之者、見其災害、必駭異而作怨聲。

其平日並吞財貨、上帝必使復吐之。或飲蛇毒而亡、或為蝮螫而死。不能飲甘泉之水、不得居酥蜜之地。雖勞而得財、不能自享、必當反之於人、不可以為悅。蓋剝奪其民、至於貧乏、則遺棄之、人所建之第宅、則強據之。其衷懷不能恬適、其嗜好不能長存。其所食無餘、其享福不永。即當隆盛之時、必遇困厄、受其虐遇者、必群起而攻擊。彼既飽其貪饕、上帝震怒、降災如下雨、使之備嘗。雖避鐵器、而傷於銅弓。利鏃白刃、深入其膽、拔而出之、不勝戰栗、災害臨之、電火焚之、居其室者、咸遇患難。天癉其惡、地罰其罪。臨難之日、凡其所有、必盡消亡。全能之上帝、施報於惡人者若此。

乃作歌曰、摩押王、厥名巴勒、招我於亞蘭、導我於東岳、使詛雅各、詈以色列。

郇邑及耶路撒冷民曰、巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒、噬予滅予、使我為虛器、吞我若蛇、飫我肥甘、逐我遠去、彼虐遇予、殺予戚屬、罪必歸巴比倫、及迦勒底民。

巴蘭作歌曰、巴勒可興起而聞言、西撥子可傾耳以恭聽。

厥後猶大之民、俘囚於巴比倫者、凡咒詛必指斯二人為口實、曰、願耶和華使予敵人、若西底家亞哈、為巴比倫王炙之以火。

爾無故取同儕之質、奪貧寒之褐。不飲食饑渴、強者任其得土、尊者聽其得廬、嫠者使之徒反、孤者去其所恃、是以四周皆設機檻、危懼頓生、

耶和華兮、惡者得志而歡忻、將至何時兮、

富者當思將來之苦而號泣、財自傷、衣自蠹、金銀黯敗、其黯為證、若火之燃、災及其身、蓋爾所積、必見鞫於末日、穫爾田之傭、不給其值、則籲呼升聞於萬有之主、

爾以金市者、不足以果腹、勞而得者、不足以饜心、是誠何故與。爾謹聽我言、可飫嘉肴、可食肥甘、而心悅懌。

彼心昏迷、所望成空、若食燼餘而不悟、不知右手所作、悉屬虛妄。

虐貧者適以富之、祐富人適以貧之。

其色甚厲、若東風驟起、既至斯土、強據人民、所獲俘囚、有若海沙、藐視君王、姍笑牧伯、譏嘲城邑、築土壘而下之、

敵以鈎釣我、以網捕我、既得我眾、喜不自勝、

上帝曰、無知者乎、今夜將索爾魂、則所備者誰歸、

兄弟乎、吾言今而後、窘逼之時也、故有妻者、當如無妻、哭者、當如無哭、喜者、當如無喜、買者、當如無得、享世勿過度、蓋變遷者世故、

爾使列邦之民、屬役良苦、竭力築城、萬有之主耶和華、必使之焚燬殆盡、歸於烏有、

強悍之輩、不潔之民、亡於鋒刃、俱下陰府、見埃及王及助之者、亦至於斯、必與之言、
