“犹大王希西家和犹大人岂是把他处死呢？希西家岂不是敬畏耶和华，恳求耶和华施恩吗？耶和华就改变心意，不把所说的灾祸降与他们。若处死这人，我们就做了大恶，害死自己了。”

犹大王希西家和犹大众人岂是把他治死呢？希西家岂不是敬畏耶和华、恳求他的恩吗？耶和华就后悔，不把自己所说的灾祸降与他们。若治死这人，我们就作了大恶，自害己命。”

“犹大王希西家和犹大人岂是把他处死呢？希西家岂不是敬畏耶和华，恳求耶和华施恩吗？耶和华就改变心意，不把所说的灾祸降与他们。若处死这人，我们就做了大恶，害死自己了。”

“但犹大王希西迦和犹大众人并没有处死他。希西迦敬畏耶和华，求祂开恩，耶和华才施怜悯，没有把原本预备的灾祸降给他们。若处死这人，我们会大祸临头。”

犹大王希西家和犹大众人可曾把他处死呢？希西家不是敬畏耶和华，求他开恩，以致耶和华回心转意，没有把他所说的灾祸降在他们身上吗？但我们现在竟自招大祸。”

猶大王希西家和猶大眾人豈是把他治死呢？希西家豈不是敬畏耶和華、懇求他的恩嗎？耶和華就後悔，不把自己所說的災禍降與他們。若治死這人，我們就作了大惡，自害己命。」（

「猶大王希西家和猶大人豈是把他處死呢？希西家豈不是敬畏耶和華，懇求耶和華施恩嗎？耶和華就改變心意，不把所說的災禍降與他們。若處死這人，我們就做了大惡，害死自己了。」

「猶大王希西家和猶大人豈是把他處死呢？希西家豈不是敬畏耶和華，懇求耶和華施恩嗎？耶和華就改變心意，不把所說的災禍降與他們。若處死這人，我們就做了大惡，害死自己了。」

「但猶大王希西迦和猶大眾人並沒有處死他。希西迦敬畏耶和華，求祂開恩，耶和華才施憐憫，沒有把原本預備的災禍降給他們。若處死這人，我們會大禍臨頭。」

猶大王希西家和猶大眾人可曾把他處死呢？希西家不是敬畏耶和華，求他開恩，以致耶和華回心轉意，沒有把他所說的災禍降在他們身上嗎？但我們現在竟自招大禍。”

猶大王希西家和猶大眾人哪有把他治死呢？希西家豈不是敬畏永恆主，求他的情面；而永恆主就改變心意、不降他所說要降與他們的災禍麼？但我們呢、我們竟要行個大惡、來害自己的性命了！』

猶大王希西家、及猶大眾、豈致之於死乎、王非寅畏耶和華、而求其恩、致耶和華回意、不降所言之災乎、今我行此、乃自害己命耳、

猶大王希西家、與猶大庶民、未嘗加斯人以殺戮、惟敬畏耶和華、求其恩祐、故災害不果降、我今若殺耶利米、必罹禍災。

猶大王希西家與猶大庶民、何嘗殺之、惟希西家敬畏主、祈禱主、則主更易其志、不降所言欲降之災、我儕今竟欲行此大惡、自取罪戾、

“ Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in Judah put him to death? Did not Hezekiah fear the Lord and seek his favor? And did not the Lord relent, so that he did not bring the disaster he pronounced against them? We are about to bring a terrible disaster on ourselves!”

Did King Hezekiah or anyone else in Judah put Micah to death? Hezekiah had respect for the Lord and tried to please him. And the Lord didn’t judge Jerusalem as he said he would. He didn’t bring on it the trouble he said he would bring. But we are about to bring horrible trouble on ourselves!”

Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? Did he not fear the Lord and entreat the favor of the Lord, and did not the Lord relent of the disaster that he had pronounced against them? But we are about to bring great disaster upon ourselves.”

But did King Hezekiah and the people kill him for saying this? No, they turned from their sins and worshiped the Lord. They begged him for mercy. Then the Lord changed his mind about the terrible disaster he had pronounced against them. So we are about to do ourselves great harm.”

Did King Hezekiah of Judah and all the people of Judah put him to death? Did not the king fear the LORD and plead for the LORD’s favor, and did not the LORD relent concerning the disaster he had pronounced against them? We are about to bring a terrible disaster on ourselves!”

Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah actually put him to death? Did he not fear the Lord and plead for the favor of the Lord, and the Lord relented of the disaster which He had pronounced against them? But we are committing a great evil against our own lives!”

Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah ever put him to death? Did he not fear the Lord and seek the LORD’s favor? And the Lord relented concerning the doom which He had pronounced against them. But we are doing great evil against ourselves.”

Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? did he not fear Jehovah, and entreat the favor of Jehovah, and Jehovah repented him of the evil which he had pronounced against them? Thus should we commit great evil against our own souls.

Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all the people of Judah put him to death? Did he not fear the Lord and plead for the Lord’s favor, and did not the Lord relent concerning the disaster He had pronounced against them? We are about to bring great harm on ourselves!”

Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him at all to death? did he not fear the LORD, and besought the LORD, and the LORD repented him of the evil which he had pronounced against them? Thus might we procure great evil against our souls.

King Hezekiah and all the people of Judah did not put him to death, did they? Did not Hezekiah show reverence for the LORD and seek the LORD’s favor? Did not the LORD forgo destroying them as he threatened he would? But we are on the verge of bringing great disaster on ourselves.”

Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? Didn’t he fear Yahweh, and entreat the favor of Yahweh, and Yahweh relented of the disaster which he had pronounced against them? We would commit great evil against our own souls that way!”

于是耶和华改变心意，不把所说的灾祸降给他的百姓。

天使向耶路撒冷伸手要毁灭这城的时候，耶和华改变心意，不降那灾难，就对那在百姓中施行毁灭的天使说：“够了！住手吧！”耶和华的使者正在耶布斯人亚劳拿的禾场那里。

因我们的祖先犯了罪，行耶和华—我们上帝眼中看为恶的事，离弃他，转脸背向耶和华的居所。他们又封锁走廊的门，吹灭灯火，不在圣所中向以色列的上帝烧香，或献燔祭。耶和华的愤怒临到犹大和耶路撒冷，使他们恐惧，令人惊骇，使人嗤笑，正如你们亲眼所见的。看哪，我们的祖宗倒在刀下，我们的妻子儿女也为此被掳掠。现在我心中有意与耶和华—以色列的上帝立约，好使他的烈怒转离我们。我的众子啊，现在不要懈怠；因为耶和华拣选你们站在他面前事奉他，作他的仆人，向他烧香。”

希西家向耶和华祷告说：“坐在基路伯之上万军之耶和华—以色列的上帝啊，你，惟有你是地上万国的上帝，你创造了天和地。耶和华啊，求你侧耳而听；耶和华啊，求你睁眼而看，听西拿基立差遣使者辱骂永生上帝的一切话。耶和华啊，亚述诸王果然使列国和列国之地变为荒芜，将列国的神明扔在火里，因为它们不是神明，是人手所造的，是木头、石头，所以被灭绝了。耶和华—我们的上帝啊，现在求你救我们脱离亚述王的手，使地上万国都知道惟有你是耶和华。”

希西家却没有照他所蒙的恩回报，因他心里骄傲，所以愤怒要临到他，临到犹大和耶路撒冷。但希西家和耶路撒冷的居民为了心里骄傲，就一同谦卑，以致耶和华的愤怒在希西家的日子没有临到他们。

希西家王听见了，就撕裂衣服，披上麻衣，进了耶和华的殿。

若是出于上帝，你们就不能败坏他们，恐怕你们倒是攻击上帝了。”议会的人被他说服了，

或许耶和华—你的上帝听见亚述将军的话，就是他主人亚述王差他来辱骂永生上帝的话，耶和华—你的上帝就斥责所听见的这些话。求你为幸存的余民扬声祷告。’”

这都因她先知的罪恶和祭司的罪孽，他们在城中流了义人的血。他们如盲人在街上徘徊，又被血玷污，以致人不敢摸他们的衣服。

希西家王和亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚先知为此祷告，向天呼求。

天哪，众圣徒、众使徒、众先知啊！你们都要因她欢喜，因为上帝已经在她身上为你们伸了冤。”有一位大力的天使举起一块石头，好像大磨石，扔在海里，说：“巴比伦大城也必这样猛力地被扔下去，绝对见不到了。弹琴、歌唱、吹笛、吹号的声音，在你中间绝对听不见了；各行手艺的技工在你中间绝对见不到了；推磨的声音在你中间绝对听不见了；灯台的光在你中间绝对不再照耀了；新郎和新娘的声音在你中间绝对听不见了。你的商人原来是地上的显要；万国也被你的邪术迷惑了。先知、圣徒和地上一切被杀的人的血都在这城里找到了。”

你图谋剪除许多民族，犯了罪，使自己的家蒙羞，自害己命。

要把那些犯罪自丧己命之人的香炉锤成薄片，用以包祭坛；因为这些本是他们在耶和华面前献过，分别为圣的，可以给以色列人作记号。”

如此，地上所有义人流的血都归到你们身上，从义人亚伯的血起，直到你们在圣所和祭坛中间所杀的巴拉加的儿子撒迦利亚的血为止。

希律分封王，因他兄弟之妻希罗底的缘故，并因他所做的一切恶事，受了约翰的责备。希律在一切事上又添了这一件，就是把约翰收在监里。

因他们曾流过圣徒与先知的血，现在你给他们血喝，这是他们该受的。”

这样，你们就不会污秽所住之地，因为血能使地污秽；若有血流在地上，除非流那杀人者的血，否则那地就不得洁净。你们不可玷污所住之地，就是我住在当中的地，因为我—耶和华住在以色列人中间。”

现在耶和华—万军之上帝、以色列的上帝如此说：你们为何做这大恶自害己命，使你们的男人、妇女、孩童和吃奶的都从犹大剪除，不留一人呢？

彼拉多见说也无济于事，反要生乱，就拿水在众人面前洗手，说：“流这人的血，罪不在我，你们承当吧。”众人都回答：“他的血归到我们和我们的子孙身上！”

或者他们肯听从，各人回转离开恶道，我就改变心意，不将我因他们所行的恶、想要施行的灾祸降与他们。

但你们要确实知道，你们若把我处死，就使流无辜人血的罪归给你们和这城，以及城里的居民了；因为耶和华确实差遣我到你们这里来，将这一切话传到你们耳中。”

因为，看哪，耶和华从他的居所出来，要惩罚地上居民的罪孽。地必露出其中的血，不再掩盖被杀的人。

“你们去，以所发现这书上的话，为我、为以色列和犹大幸存的人求问耶和华；因为我们的祖先没有遵守耶和华的话，没有照这书上所记的一切去做，耶和华的烈怒就倒在我们身上。”

羔羊揭开第五个印的时候，我看见在祭坛底下有曾为上帝的道，并为作见证而被杀的人的灵魂，大声喊着说：“神圣真实的主宰啊，你不审判住在地上的人，为我们所流的血伸冤，要到几时呢？”
