“然而，人都不必争辩，也不必指责，因为这民与抗拒祭司的人一样。

然而，人都不必争辩，也不必指责。你的百姓与抗拒祭司的人一样。

然而，人都不必争辩，也不必指责。你的百姓与抗拒祭司的人一样。

耶和华说：“谁都不要指控别人，谁都不要责备别人，因为我要指控的是你们祭司。

虽然这样，人人都不必争论，不要彼此指责。你的民像争辩的祭司一样。

然而，人都不必爭辯，也不必指責，因為這民與抗拒祭司的人一樣。

然而，人都不必爭辯，也不必指責。你的百姓與抗拒祭司的人一樣。

然而，人都不必爭辯，也不必指責。你的百姓與抗拒祭司的人一樣。

耶和華說：「誰都不要指控別人，誰都不要責備別人，因為我要指控的是你們祭司。

雖然這樣，人人都不必爭論，不要彼此指責。你的民像爭辯的祭司一樣。

然而人都不必爭辯，人也不必指責；祭司啊，我的爭辯是針對着你的。

但人勿相爭、勿相責、蓋爾民如與祭司爭者然、

規諫無人、民逆祭司、

無人審鞫、無人指責、爾民若抗逆祭司者、

“ But let no one bring a charge, let no one accuse another, for your people are like those who bring charges against a priest.

“ But you priests should not blame the people. You should not find fault with one another. After all, your people could also bring charges against you.

Yet let no one contend, and let none accuse, for with you is my contention, O priest.

“ Don’t point your finger at someone else and try to pass the blame! My complaint, you priests, is with you.

But let no one dispute; let no one argue, for my case is against you priests.

Yet let no one find fault, and let no one rebuke; For your people are like those who contend with a priest.

“ Now let no man contend, or rebuke another; For your people are like those who contend with the priest.

Yet let no man strive, neither let any man reprove; for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.

But let no one dispute; let no one argue, for My case is against you priests.

Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people[ are] as they that strive with the priest.

Do not let anyone accuse or contend against anyone else: for my case is against you priests!

“ Yet let no man bring a charge, neither let any man accuse; for your people are like those who bring charges against a priest.

Anyone who shows contempt for the judge or for the priest who stands ministering there to the Lord your God is to be put to death. You must purge the evil from Israel. (niv)

Therefore the prudent keep quiet in such times, for the times are evil. (niv)

Ephraim is joined to idols; leave him alone! (niv)

“ Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?How can you say to your brother,‘ Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.“ Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces. (niv)

They said,“ Come, let’s make plans against Jeremiah; for the teaching of the law by the priest will not cease, nor will counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophets. So come, let’s attack him with our tongues and pay no attention to anything he says.” (niv)

And if the relative who comes to carry the bodies out of the house to burn them asks anyone who might be hiding there,“ Is anyone else with you?” and he says,“ No,” then he will go on to say,“ Hush! We must not mention the name of the Lord.” (niv)

I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth so that you will be silent and unable to rebuke them, for they are a rebellious people. (niv)
