“ The LORD says,‘ That is why I will scatter your people like chaff that is blown away by a desert wind.

所以我必用旷野的风吹散他们，像吹过的碎秸一样。

我必吹散他们，如碎秸随旷野的风飘动。

我必吹散他们，如碎秸随旷野的风飘动。

因此，耶和华说：“我要把你分散到四方，像旷野的风吹散碎秸一样。

“因此，我要使你们（“你们”原文作“他们”）四散，像被旷野的风吹走的碎秸一样。

所以我必用曠野的風吹散他們，像吹過的碎稭一樣。

我必吹散他們，如碎稭隨曠野的風飄動。

我必吹散他們，如碎稭隨曠野的風飄動。

因此，耶和華說：「我要把你分散到四方，像曠野的風吹散碎稭一樣。

“因此，我要使你們（“你們”原文作“他們”）四散，像被曠野的風吹走的碎稭一樣。

故此我必使你四散如碎稭，像被曠野的風吹過的一樣。

故我必散之、若草芥為野風所飄、

耶和華曰、我必使斯民離散、如狂風飄草芥、爾曹棄我、所恃妄誕、故我罰爾、必若是。

我必將斯民散之、如草芥飄於曠野之風、

“ I will scatter you like chaff driven by the desert wind.

The Lord says,“ I will scatter you like straw that the desert wind blows away.

I will scatter you like chaff driven by the wind from the desert.

“ I will scatter you like chaff that is blown away by the desert winds.

I will scatter you like drifting chaff before the desert wind.

Therefore I will scatter them like drifting straw To the desert wind.

“ Therefore I will scatter them like stubble That passes away by the wind of the wilderness.

Therefore will I scatter them, as the stubble that passeth away, by the wind of the wilderness.

I will scatter you like drifting chaff before the desert wind.

Therefore will I scatter them as the stubble that passeth away by the wind of the wilderness.

“ Therefore I will scatter them, as the stubble that passes away, by the wind of the wilderness.

Not so with the wicked! Instead they are like wind-driven chaff.

I will scatter you among the nations and unsheathe the sword after you, so your land will become desolate and your cities will become a waste.

A third of your people will die of plague or be overcome by the famine within you. A third of your people will fall by the sword surrounding you, and a third I will scatter to the winds. I will unleash a sword behind them.

Burn a third of it in the fire inside the city when the days of your siege are completed. Take a third and slash it with a sword all around the city. Scatter a third to the wind, and I will unleash a sword behind them.

Therefore they will disappear like the morning mist, like early morning dew that evaporates, like chaff that is blown away from a threshing floor, like smoke that disappears through an open window.

You will winnow them and the wind will blow them away; the wind will scatter them. You will rejoice in the LORD; you will boast in the Holy One of Israel.

“ I said,‘ I want to cut them in pieces. I want to make people forget they ever existed.

Then the LORD will scatter you among the peoples and there will be very few of you among the nations where the LORD will drive you.

before God’s decree becomes reality and the day of opportunity disappears like windblown chaff, before the LORD’s raging anger overtakes you– before the day of the LORD’s angry judgment overtakes you!

Though these people make an uproar as loud as the roaring of powerful waves, when he shouts at them, they will flee to a distant land, driven before the wind like dead weeds on the hills, or like dead thistles before a strong gale.

All the choice men among his troops will die by the sword and the survivors will be scattered to every wind. Then you will know that I, the LORD, have spoken!

“ At that time the people of Judah and Jerusalem will be told,‘ A scorching wind will sweep down from the hilltops in the desert on my dear people. It will not be a gentle breeze for winnowing the grain and blowing away the chaff.No, a wind too strong for that will come at my bidding. Yes, even now I, myself, am calling down judgment on them.’

O my God, make them like dead thistles, like dead weeds blown away by the wind!Like the fire that burns down the forest, or the flames that consume the mountainsides,chase them with your gale winds, and terrify them with your windstorm.

“‘ But I will spare some of you. Some will escape the sword when you are scattered in foreign lands.

The LORD will scatter you among all nations, from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship other gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, gods of wood and stone.

They will fall by the edge of the sword and be led away as captives among all nations. Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
