彼雖回轉、然不向上、有若偏反之弓、其牧伯口出狂言、必仆於刃、在埃及地為人姍笑、

他们归向，却不归向至上者；他们如同翻背的弓。他们的首领必因舌头的狂傲倒在刀下；这在埃及地必作人的讥笑。”

他们归向，但不是归向至上者；终究必如松弛的弓。他们的领袖必因舌头的狂傲倒在刀下，这在埃及地必成为人的笑柄。

他们归向，但不是归向至上者；终究必如松弛的弓。他们的领袖必因舌头的狂傲倒在刀下，这在埃及地必成为人的笑柄。

他们回转，却不肯转向至高者，他们就像无用的断弓。他们的首领要因出言狂妄而丧身刀下，成为埃及人的笑柄。

他们转向巴力，成了不可靠的弓。他们的领袖因自己舌头上的狂傲倒在刀下，这在埃及地必成为被人讥笑的对象。”

他們歸向，卻不歸向至上者；他們如同翻背的弓。他們的首領必因舌頭的狂傲倒在刀下；這在埃及地必作人的譏笑。

他們歸向，但不是歸向至上者；終究必如鬆弛的弓。他們的領袖必因舌頭的狂傲倒在刀下，這在埃及地必成為人的笑柄。

他們轉向巴力，成了不可靠的弓。他們的領袖因自己舌頭上的狂傲倒在刀下，這在埃及地必成為被人譏笑的對象。”

他們轉向於巴力；如同乖張的弓；他們的首領必因其舌頭之傲氣而倒斃於刀下：這在埃及地必成了人們嗤笑的對象。

彼所歸誠者、非至上之主、如弦絕弓反、口出妄言、諸牧伯亡於鋒刃、為埃及人姍笑。

彼所歸誠者、非至上之主、彼如已翻之弓、其侯伯殞亡於刃、因其口出狂言、必因此為伊及國之人所姍笑、

They do not turn to the Most High; they are like a faulty bow. Their leaders will fall by the sword because of their insolent words. For this they will be ridiculed in the land of Egypt.

I am the Most High God. But they do not turn to me. They are like a bow that does not shoot straight. Their leaders will be killed by swords. They will die because they have spoken too proudly. The people of Egypt will make fun of them.”

They return, but not upward; they are like a treacherous bow; their princes shall fall by the sword because of the insolence of their tongue. This shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.

They look everywhere except to the Most High. They are as useless as a crooked bow. Their leaders will be killed by their enemies because of their insolence toward me. Then the people of Egypt will laugh at them.

They turn, but not to what is above; they are like a faulty bow. Their leaders will fall by the sword because of their insolent tongue. They will be ridiculed for this in the land of Egypt.

They turn, but not upward, They are like a loose bow; Their officials will fall by the sword Because of the insolence of their tongue. This will be their derision in the land of Egypt.

They return, but not to the Most High; They are like a treacherous bow. Their princes shall fall by the sword For the cursings of their tongue. This shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.

They return, but not to him that is on high; they are like a deceitful bow; their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.

轉而背之、行詐如其列祖、變其趨向、如偏反之弓兮、

彼不得居耶和華之地、以法蓮必返於埃及、食穢物於亞述、

口談上天、舌遊全地、

主耶和華曰、爾姊之爵、既深且巨、所盛既多、爾必飲之、為人輕慢姍笑、

彼眾逃避滅亡、埃及將殮之、摩弗將瘞之、其嘉美之銀器、將為蒺藜所據、其帳幕中荊棘叢生、

彼曰、我舌獲勝、口為我有、誰為我主兮、

其詭譎之妹猶大、仍不專誠歸我、惟偽為耳、耶和華言之矣、○

邪鬼既出其人、遊行旱地、求安不得、曰、我將返我所出之室、至、則見其掃除修飾矣、遂往、又攜七鬼更惡於己者、入而居之、其人之後況、較前尤劇矣、○

我語汝、人所出之虛言、當鞫日、莫不供之、

我處獅中、與火性之世人共臥、其齒為戈矢、其舌為利刃兮、

耶路撒冷頹敗、猶大傾覆、因其所言所行、逆耶和華、觸厥威榮之目、

其心向之不正、守約不誠兮、

我民決志違離我、雖有召之向上、興者迄無一人、

以法蓮歟、我將何以待爾、猶大歟、我將何以待爾、蓋爾之仁義、有若朝雲、又如速消之露、

蓋此義者居其中、且見且聞、以其不法之行、日傷公義之心、

禍哉彼眾、因其離棄我、將見毀滅、因其悖逆我、我欲救贖之、彼乃言誑以謗我、

至於獻我祭品、彼獻肉而食之、惟耶和華不納之、必憶其愆、而罰其罪、彼必返於埃及、以色列忘乎造之者、自建第宅、猶大增築堅城、我將降火於其城邑、燬其第宅、

彼至異邦、污我聖名、因人指之曰、斯為耶和華之民、出於其地者、

彼曰、其來、爾我同謀以攻耶利米、因法律不絕於祭司、謀畧不絕於哲人、預言不絕於先知、來哉、我儕以舌攻之、勿聽其言、○

又予之口、言諸大事、及諸謗讟、又予之權、凡四十有二月、

石上者、猶人聽道而欣受之、惟其無根、則暫信耳、遇試遂背之、

如是、舌為小體、而誇大焉、些須之火、能燃若大之林、

爾舌運用邪惡、如銛利之薙刀、詭譎是行兮、
