蓋此子尚未明棄惡擇善之先、爾所懼之二王、其國必荒蕪、

因为在这孩子还不晓得弃恶择善之先，你所憎恶的那二王之地必致见弃。

因为在这孩子还不晓得弃恶择善之先，你所憎恶的那两个王的土地必被撇弃。

然而，在他能明辨是非之前，你所惧怕的这二王的国土必荒废。

因为在这孩子晓得弃恶择善之先，你所畏惧的那两个王之地，早就被弃绝了。

因为在这孩子知道弃恶择善之前，你所惧怕的那两个王的土地必被遗弃。

蓋此子未知棄惡擇善之先、爾所疾之二王、其國為墟、

當其年華未富、明睿未開之日、爾所懼之二王、其國必為墟、

for before the boy knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste.

Even before then, the lands of the two kings you fear will be ruined.

For before the boy knows how to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land whose two kings you dread will be deserted.

For before the child is that old, the lands of the two kings you fear so much will both be deserted.

For before the boy knows to reject what is bad and choose what is good, the land of the two kings you dread will be abandoned.

For before the boy knows enough to refuse evil and choose good, the land whose two kings you dread will be abandoned.

For before the Child shall know to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land that you dread will be forsaken by both her kings.

For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land whose two kings thou abhorrest shall be forsaken.

For before the boy knows to reject what is bad and choose what is good, the land of the two kings you dread will be abandoned.

For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.

Here is why this will be so: Before the child knows how to reject evil and choose what is right, the land whose two kings you fear will be desolate.

For before the child knows to refuse the evil and choose the good, the land whose two kings you abhor shall be forsaken.

蓋其子尚未識呼父呼母之先、人必將大瑪色之貲財、與撒瑪利亞之貨財、擄於亞述王前、

爾之幼穉、即爾所言必被擄者、爾之子女、今尚不知辨別善惡者、必得入斯地、我將賜於彼、必得之為業、

亞述王允其所請、遂上攻大瑪色取焉、擄其居民至吉珥、又殺利汛、

主如是云、大瑪色人犯罪、至三至四、更以鐵器擊基列人、故我降罰以報之、必不挽回、必不挽回或作必不回志下同必使火焚哈薛家、燬便哈達宮殿、折大瑪色之關、殲亞文平原之居民、絕伯伊甸之執政者、執政者原文作執圭者下同使亞蘭人被擄至吉珥、此乃主所言、

在施刑之日、以法蓮地必變荒蕪、我在以色列支派中、示以將來必有之事、

況尼尼微大邑、其中孩提、不識左右者、有十二萬餘、亦有牲畜眾多、我能不顧惜乎、

以色列王比加在位時、亞述王提革拉毘列色來取以雲、亞伯伯瑪迦、亞挪、基叠、夏瑣、基列、加利利、拿弗他利全地、以其居民擄至亞述、烏西雅子約坦二十年、以拉子何西阿叛利瑪利子比加、弒之而篡其位、

論大瑪色有預言曰、大瑪色將毀、不復成邑、將為瓦礫之場、亞羅珥諸邑、荒蕪無人、必為安置羊群之處、臥於彼無人驅之、以法蓮鞏固之城必毀、大瑪色之國必滅、亞蘭所遺之民、必歸於無有、與以色列族之榮華無異、此乃萬有之主所言、

故主使利汛之敵、亦至而攻之、更激其仇敵、執兵刃以來戰、
