I looked, and the fertile field was a wilderness. All its cities were torn down because of the LORD and his burning anger.

我观看，看哪，肥田变为荒地；所有城镇在耶和华面前，因他的烈怒都被拆毁。

我四下观看，只见良田变荒野，城邑都在耶和华的烈怒下沦为废墟。

我四下觀看，只見良田變荒野，城邑都在耶和華的烈怒下淪為廢墟。

我觀看，啊，園地竟變為曠野；一切城市、在永恆主面前、因他的烈怒、都被拆毁。

我又觀之、見沃田成為荒野、諸邑毀於耶和華烈怒之前、

良田荒蕪、城邑傾圮、蓋耶和華涖臨、其怒殊烈。

見良田荒蕪、其諸城邑傾圮於主前、皆因主之烈怒、

I looked, and the fruitful land was a desert; all its towns lay in ruins before the Lord, before his fierce anger.

I looked. And the fruitful land had become a desert. All its towns were destroyed. The Lord had done all this because of his great anger.

I looked, and behold, the fruitful land was a desert, and all its cities were laid in ruins before the Lord, before his fierce anger.

I looked, and the fertile fields had become a wilderness. The towns lay in ruins, crushed by the Lord’s fierce anger.

I looked, and behold, the fruitful land was a wilderness, And all its cities were pulled down Before the Lord, before His fierce anger.

I beheld, and indeed the fruitful land was a wilderness, And all its cities were broken down At the presence of the Lord, By His fierce anger.

I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful field was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of Jehovah, and before his fierce anger.

I looked, and the fertile field was a wilderness. All its cities were torn down because of the Lord and His burning anger.

I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place[ was] a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD,[ and] by his fierce anger.

I looked and saw that the fruitful land had become a desert and that all of the cities had been laid in ruins. The LORD had brought this all about because of his blazing anger.

I saw, and behold, the fruitful field was a wilderness, and all its cities were broken down at the presence of Yahweh, before his fierce anger.

and fruitful land into salty wasteland, because of the wickedness of its inhabitants.

Therefore, because of you, Zion will be plowed like a field, Jerusalem will become ruins, and the temple’s mountain will be a high thicket.

I heard the LORD of Armies say: Indeed, many houses will become desolate, grand and lovely ones without inhabitants.For a ten-acre vineyard will yield only six gallons of wine, and ten bushels of seed will yield only one bushel of grain.

On that day the Lord will use a razor hired from beyond the Euphrates River— the king of Assyria— to shave the hair on your heads, the hair on your legs, and even your beards.On that day a man will raise a young cow and two sheep,and from the abundant milk they give he will eat curds, for every survivor in the land will eat curds and honey.And on that day every place where there were a thousand vines, worth a thousand pieces of silver, will become thorns and briers.A man will go there with bow and arrows because the whole land will be thorns and briers.You will not go to all the hills that were once tilled with a hoe, for fear of the thorns and briers. Those hills will be places for oxen to graze and for sheep to trample.

All its soil will be a burning waste of sulfur and salt, unsown, producing nothing, with no plant growing on it, just like the fall of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD demolished in his fierce anger.All the nations will ask,‘ Why has the LORD done this to this land? Why this intense outburst of anger?’Then people will answer,‘ It is because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their ancestors, which he had made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.They began to serve other gods, bowing in worship to gods they had not known— gods that the LORD had not permitted them to worship.Therefore the LORD’s anger burned against this land, and he brought every curse written in this book on it.The LORD uprooted them from their land in his anger, rage, and intense wrath, and threw them into another land where they are today.’

Judah mourns; her city gates languish. Her people are on the ground in mourning; Jerusalem’s cry rises up.Their nobles send their servants for water. They go to the cisterns; they find no water; their containers return empty. They are ashamed and humiliated; they cover their heads.The ground is cracked since no rain has fallen on the land. The farmers are ashamed; they cover their heads.Even the doe in the field gives birth and abandons her fawn since there is no grass.Wild donkeys stand on the barren heights panting for air like jackals. Their eyes fail because there are no green plants.

And you— you are to be feared. When you are angry, who can stand before you?

How long will the land mourn and the grass of every field wither? Because of the evil of its residents, animals and birds have been swept away, for the people have said,“ He cannot see what our end will be.”
