So what I did to Shiloh I will now do to the house where my Name is. It is the temple you trust in. It is the place I gave to you and your people of long ago.

所以我要向这称为我名下、你们所倚靠的殿，与我所赐给你们和你们列祖的地施行，照我从前向示罗所行的一样。

所以我要向这称为我名下、你们所倚靠的殿，与我所赐给你们和你们祖先的地这样行，正如我从前向示罗所行的。

所以我要向这称为我名下、你们所倚靠的殿，与我所赐给你们和你们祖先的地这样行，正如我从前向示罗所行的。

因此，我要像对付示罗一样对付你们所倚靠的这用来敬拜我的殿，对付我赐给你们和你们祖先的土地。

“所以我从前怎样对待示罗，将来也怎样对待你们所倚靠的那称为我名下的殿，以及我赐给你们和你们列祖的地方。

所以我要向這稱為我名下、你們所倚靠的殿，與我所賜給你們和你們列祖的地施行，照我從前向示羅所行的一樣。

所以我要向這稱為我名下、你們所倚靠的殿，與我所賜給你們和你們祖先的地這樣行，正如我從前向示羅所行的。

所以我要向這稱為我名下、你們所倚靠的殿，與我所賜給你們和你們祖先的地這樣行，正如我從前向示羅所行的。

因此，我要像對付示羅一樣對付你們所倚靠的這用來敬拜我的殿，對付我賜給你們和你們祖先的土地。

“所以我從前怎樣對待示羅，將來也怎樣對待你們所倚靠的那稱為我名下的殿，以及我賜給你們和你們列祖的地方。

因此我必待這殿，就是這稱為我名下的，你們所倚靠的，我必待這地方，就是我所賜給你們、和你們列祖的，像我從前待示羅一樣。

故我於我寄名之室、爾所恃者、及我錫爾列祖與爾之地、必有所為、如昔在示羅然、

故我所錫爾祖、及爾之地、與斯殿為籲我名之所、爾所恃者、我必敗之、如昔敗示羅然。

故我必廢棄斯殿、為我名而建者、即爾所恃者、亦必廢棄我所賜爾與爾列祖之處、如昔我在示羅所行者然、

Therefore, what I did to Shiloh I will now do to the house that bears my Name, the temple you trust in, the place I gave to you and your ancestors.

therefore I will do to the house that is called by my name, and in which you trust, and to the place that I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.

So just as I destroyed Shiloh, I will now destroy this Temple that bears my name, this Temple that you trust in for help, this place that I gave to you and your ancestors.

what I did to Shiloh I will do to the house that bears my name, the house in which you trust, the place that I gave you and your ancestors.

therefore I will do to the house which is called by My name, in which you trust, and to this place which I gave to you and your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

therefore will I do unto the house which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.

what I did to Shiloh I will do to the house that is called by My name— the house in which you trust— the place that I gave you and your ancestors.

Therefore will I do unto[ this] house, which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

So I will destroy this temple which I have claimed as my own, this temple that you are trusting to protect you. I will destroy this place that I gave to you and your ancestors, just like I destroyed Shiloh.

therefore I will do to the house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.

They wanted to call his attention to the temple buildings.“ Do you see all these things?” Jesus asked.“ What I’m about to tell you is true. Not one stone here will be left on top of another. Every stone will be thrown down.”

I heard him speak to the six men. He said,“ Follow him through the city. Do not show any pity or concern.Kill the old men and women, the young men and women, and the children. But do not touch anyone who has the mark.

“ Micah from Moresheth prophesied. It was during the time Hezekiah was king over Judah. Micah spoke to all the people of Judah.

My people were so proud of their beautiful jewelry. They used it to make statues of their evil gods. I hate those gods. So I will turn their jewelry into an“ unclean” thing for them.“‘ I will hand over their wealth to outsiders. I will turn it over to sinful people in other countries. They will make it“ unclean.”I will turn my face away from my people. Robbers will make“ unclean” the temple I love. They will enter it and make it“ unclean.”

Your judges take money from people who want special favors. Your priests teach only if they get paid for it. Your prophets won’t tell fortunes unless they receive money.

Jerusalem will be turned into a pile of trash. The temple hill will be covered with bushes and weeds.

Then I will remove Israel from the land. It is the land I gave them. I will turn my back on this temple. I will do it even though I have set it apart for my Name to be there. Then Israel will be hated by all the nations. They will laugh and joke about Israel.This temple will become a pile of stones. All those who pass by it will be shocked. They will make fun of it. And they will say,‘ Why has the Lord done a thing like this to this land and temple?’

‘ Speak to the people of Israel. Tell them,“ The Lord and King says,‘ I am about to make my temple“ unclean.” I will let the Babylonians burn it down.

The priests, the prophets and all the people heard him.Jeremiah finished telling all the people everything the Lord had commanded him to say. But as soon as he did, the priests, the prophets and all the people grabbed him. They said,“ You must die!Why do you prophesy these things in the Lord’ s name? Why do you say that this house will become like Shiloh? Why do you say that this city will be empty and deserted?” And all the people crowded around Jeremiah in the Lord’ s house.
