你曾說過，「我有禍啊！永恆主將憂愁加在我的痛苦之上；我歎息得困乏了，總不得安寧。」

爾嘗云、禍哉我也、耶和華於我痛苦之上、增以憂戚、我呻吟而疲憊、不獲綏安、

爾常言、嗚呼、耶和華增我憂愁、恐懼歔欷、不獲平康。

爾嘗言、哀哉、主增我憂、加我苦、我因歎息而困憊、不得平康、

You said,‘ Woe to me! The Lord has added sorrow to my pain; I am worn out with groaning and find no rest.’

‘ You have said,“ How terrible it is for me! The Lord has added sorrow to my pain. I’m worn out from all my groaning. I can’t find any rest.” ’

You said,‘ Woe is me! For the Lord has added sorrow to my pain. I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest.’

You have said,‘ I am overwhelmed with trouble! Haven’t I had enough pain already? And now the Lord has added more! I am worn out from sighing and can find no rest.’

‘ You said,“ Oh, woe to me! For the Lord has added grief to my pain; I am weary with my groaning and have found no rest.” ’

‘ You said,“ Woe is me now! For the Lord has added grief to my sorrow. I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.”’

Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for Jehovah hath added sorrow to my pain; I am weary with my groaning, and I find no rest.

Therefore, since we have this ministry because we were shown mercy, we do not give up.

Therefore we do not give up. Even though our outer person is being destroyed, our inner person is being renewed day by day.

Let us not get tired of doing good, for we will reap at the proper time if we don’t give up.

For consider him who endured such hostility from sinners against himself, so that you won’t grow weary and give up.In struggling against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.And you have forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons: My son, do not take the Lord’s discipline lightly or lose heart when you are reproved by him,

If my head were a flowing spring, my eyes a fountain of tears, I would weep day and night over the slain of my dear people.

Let all their wickedness come before you, and deal with them as you have dealt with me because of all my transgressions. For my groans are many, and I am sick at heart.

I am weary from my crying; my throat is parched. My eyes fail, looking for my God.

Today also my complaint is bitter. His hand is heavy despite my groaning.

Woe is me, my mother, that you gave birth to me, a man who incites dispute and conflict in all the land. I did not lend or borrow, yet everyone curses me.The LORD said: Haven’t I set you loose for your good? Haven’t I punished you in a time of trouble, in a time of distress with the enemy?Can anyone smash iron, iron from the north, or bronze?I will give up your wealth and your treasures as plunder, without cost, for all your sins in all your borders.Then I will make you serve your enemies in a land you do not know, for my anger will kindle a fire that will burn against you.You know, LORD; remember me and take note of me. Avenge me against my persecutors. In your patience, don’t take me away. Know that I suffer disgrace for your honor.Your words were found, and I ate them. Your words became a delight to me and the joy of my heart, for I bear your name, LORD God of Armies.I never sat with the band of revelers, and I did not celebrate with them. Because your hand was on me, I sat alone, for you filled me with indignation.Why has my pain become unending, my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? You truly have become like a mirage to me— water that is not reliable.Therefore, this is what the LORD says: If you return, I will take you back; you will stand in my presence. And if you speak noble words, rather than worthless ones, you will be my spokesman. It is they who must return to you; you must not return to them.Then I will make you a fortified wall of bronze to this people. They will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you to save you and rescue you. This is the LORD’s declaration.I will rescue you from the power of evil people and redeem you from the grasp of the ruthless.

Then Jacob tore his clothes, put sackcloth around his waist, and mourned for his son many days.All his sons and daughters tried to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted.“ No,” he said.“ I will go down to Sheol to my son, mourning.” And his father wept for him.

“ Oh, Lord GOD,” Joshua said,“ why did you ever bring these people across the Jordan to hand us over to the Amorites for our destruction? If only we had been content to remain on the other side of the Jordan!What can I say, Lord, now that Israel has turned its back and run from its enemies?When the Canaanites and all who live in the land hear about this, they will surround us and wipe out our name from the earth. Then what will you do about your great name?”

You deceived me, LORD, and I was deceived. You seized me and prevailed. I am a laughingstock all the time; everyone ridicules me.For whenever I speak, I cry out, I proclaim,“ Violence and destruction!” so the word of the LORD has become my constant disgrace and derision.I say,“ I won’t mention him or speak any longer in his name.” But his message becomes a fire burning in my heart, shut up in my bones. I become tired of holding it in, and I cannot prevail.For I have heard the gossip of many people,“ Terror is on every side! Report him; let’s report him!” Everyone I trusted watches for my fall.“ Perhaps he will be deceived so that we might prevail against him and take our vengeance on him.”But the LORD is with me like a violent warrior. Therefore, my persecutors will stumble and not prevail. Since they have not succeeded, they will be utterly shamed, an everlasting humiliation that will never be forgotten.LORD of Armies, testing the righteous and seeing the heart and mind, let me see your vengeance on them, for I have presented my case to you.Sing to the LORD! Praise the LORD, for he rescues the life of the needy from evil people.May the day I was born be cursed. May the day my mother bore me never be blessed.May the man be cursed who brought the news to my father, saying,“ A male child is born to you,” bringing him great joy.Let that man be like the cities the LORD demolished without compassion. Let him hear an outcry in the morning and a war cry at noontimebecause he didn’t kill me in the womb so that my mother might have been my grave, her womb eternally pregnant.Why did I come out of the womb to see only struggle and sorrow, to end my life in shame?

I am certain that I will see the LORD’s goodness in the land of the living.

But as for you, brothers and sisters, do not grow weary in doing good.

I think of God; I groan; I meditate; my spirit becomes weak. SelahYou have kept me from closing my eyes; I am troubled and cannot speak.

What misery that I have stayed in Meshech, that I have lived among the tents of Kedar!

I am weary from my groaning; with my tears I dampen my bed and drench my couch every night.

So Moses asked the LORD,“ Why have you brought such trouble on your servant? Why are you angry with me, and why do you burden me with all these people?Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth so you should tell me,‘ Carry them at your breast, as a nursing mother carries a baby,’ to the land that you swore to give their ancestors?Where can I get meat to give all these people? For they are weeping to me,‘ Give us meat to eat!’I can’t carry all these people by myself. They are too much for me.If you are going to treat me like this, please kill me right now if I have found favor with you, and don’t let me see my misery anymore.”

Their father Jacob said to them,“ It’s me that you make childless. Joseph is gone, and Simeon is gone. Now you want to take Benjamin. Everything happens to me!”Then Reuben said to his father,“ You can kill my two sons if I don’t bring him back to you. Put him in my care, and I will return him to you.”But Jacob answered,“ My son will not go down with you, for his brother is dead and he alone is left. If anything happens to him on your journey, you will bring my gray hairs down to Sheol in sorrow.”

Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your breakers and your billows have swept over me.

If you do nothing in a difficult time, your strength is limited.

God hands me over to the unjust; he throws me to the wicked.I was at ease, but he shattered me; he seized me by the scruff of the neck and smashed me to pieces. He set me up as his target;his archers surround me. He pierces my kidneys without mercy and pours my bile on the ground.

My joy has flown away; grief has settled on me. My heart is sick.

Even if he causes suffering, he will show compassion according to the abundance of his faithful love.

He sent fire from on high into my bones; he made it descend. He spread a net for my feet and turned me back. He made me desolate, sick all day long.

I am the man who has seen affliction under the rod of God’s wrath.He has driven me away and forced me to walk in darkness instead of light.Yes, he repeatedly turns his hand against me all day long.He has worn away my flesh and skin; he has broken my bones.He has laid siege against me, encircling me with bitterness and hardship.He has made me dwell in darkness like those who have been dead for ages.He has walled me in so I cannot get out; he has weighed me down with chains.Even when I cry out and plead for help, he blocks out my prayer.He has walled in my ways with blocks of stone; he has made my paths crooked.He is a bear waiting in ambush, a lion in hiding.He forced me off my way and tore me to pieces; he left me desolate.He strung his bow and set me as the target for his arrow.He pierced my kidneys with shafts from his quiver.I am a laughingstock to all my people, mocked by their songs all day long.He filled me with bitterness, satiated me with wormwood.He ground my teeth with gravel and made me cower in the dust.I have been deprived of peace; I have forgotten what prosperity is.Then I thought,“ My future is lost, as well as my hope from the LORD.”Remember my affliction and my homelessness, the wormwood and the poison.
