尽管以东说：“我们虽遭毁坏，但我们要回去，重建废墟之处。”万军之耶和华却如此说：“他们就算重建了，我还要拆毁。人们必称呼以东为‘邪恶的地界’、‘耶和华永远恼怒之民’。”

以东人说：“我们现在虽被毁坏，却要重建荒废之处。”万军之耶和华如此说：“任他们建造，我必拆毁；人必称他们的地为‘罪恶之境’；称他们的民为‘耶和华永远恼怒之民’。”

以东若说：“我们虽被毁坏，却要重建荒废之处。”万军之耶和华如此说：“任他们建造，我必拆毁；人必称他们为‘邪恶之境’，为‘耶和华永远恼怒之民’。”

以东若说：“我们虽被毁坏，却要重建荒废之处。”万军之耶和华如此说：“任他们建造，我必拆毁；人必称他们为‘邪恶之境’，为‘耶和华永远恼怒之民’。”

也许以扫的后代以东人会说：“我们现在虽然被毁，但我们要重建毁坏之处。”万军之耶和华却这样说：“他们尽管建造，但我必拆毁。他们的土地要被称为‘罪恶之地’，他们要被称为‘耶和华永远恼怒之民。’”

如果以东说：“我们虽然遭破坏，但仍要把废墟重建起来。”万军之耶和华这样说：“他们只管建造，我却要拆毁。人要称他们为罪恶的境地，为耶和华永远恼怒的子民。”

以東人說：「我們現在雖被毀壞，卻要重建荒廢之處。」萬軍之耶和華如此說：「任他們建造，我必拆毀；人必稱他們的地為『罪惡之境』；稱他們的民為『耶和華永遠惱怒之民』。」

以東若說：「我們雖被毀壞，卻要重建荒廢之處。」萬軍之耶和華如此說：「任他們建造，我必拆毀；人必稱他們為『邪惡之境』，為『耶和華永遠惱怒之民』。」

以東若說：「我們雖被毀壞，卻要重建荒廢之處。」萬軍之耶和華如此說：「任他們建造，我必拆毀；人必稱他們為『邪惡之境』，為『耶和華永遠惱怒之民』。」

也許以掃的後代以東人會說：「我們現在雖然被毀，但我們要重建毀壞之處。」萬軍之耶和華卻這樣說：「他們儘管建造，但我必拆毀。他們的土地要被稱為『罪惡之地』，他們要被稱為『耶和華永遠惱怒之民。』」

如果以東說：“我們雖然遭破壞，但仍要把廢墟重建起來。”萬軍之耶和華這樣說：“他們只管建造，我卻要拆毀。人要稱他們為罪惡的境地，為耶和華永遠惱怒的子民。”

以東若說：『我們現在雖被毁壞，卻必重建廢墟』，萬軍之永恆主卻這麼說：『他們儘管建造，我卻必拆毁，直到他們被叫做邪惡之境地、永恆主永遠惱怒的人民。』

儘管以東說：「我們雖遭毀壞，但我們要回去，重建廢墟之處。」萬軍之耶和華卻如此說：「他們就算重建了，我還要拆毀。人們必稱呼以東為『邪惡的地界』、『耶和華永遠惱怒之民』。」

以東曰、我雖傾覆、必復建荒墟之處、萬軍之耶和華云、彼將建之、我必毀之、人將稱之為惡境、其人為耶和華恆怒之民、

以東曰、予雖貧乏、傾圮之宅、必復建造、萬有之主耶和華曰、彼雖興版築、必為我所毀、人稱之為惡土、耶和華震怒斯民、恆久不已、

以東人若曰、我雖遭傾毀、我雖遭傾毀或作我雖貧乏傾圮之邑、必復建造、萬有之主如是云、任彼建造、我必毀之、人必稱其土為惡境、稱其民為主所永怒之民、

Edom may say,“ Though we have been crushed, we will rebuild the ruins.” But this is what the Lord Almighty says:“ They may build, but I will demolish. They will be called the Wicked Land, a people always under the wrath of the Lord.

Edom might say,“ We have been crushed. But we’ll rebuild our cities.” The Lord who rules over all says,“ They might rebuild their cities. But I will destroy them. They will be called the Evil Land. My anger will always remain on them.

If Edom says,“ We are shattered but we will rebuild the ruins,” the Lord of hosts says,“ They may build, but I will tear down, and they will be called‘ the wicked country,’ and‘ the people with whom the Lord is angry forever.’”

Esau’s descendants in Edom may say,“ We have been shattered, but we will rebuild the ruins.” But the Lord of Heaven’s Armies replies,“ They may try to rebuild, but I will demolish them again. Their country will be known as‘ The Land of Wickedness,’ and their people will be called‘ The People with Whom the Lord Is Forever Angry.’

Though Edom says,“ We have been devastated, but we will rebuild the ruins,” the LORD of Armies says this:“ They may build, but I will demolish. They will be called a wicked country and the people the LORD has cursed forever.

Though Edom says,“ We have been beaten down, but we will return and build up the ruins”; this is what the Lord of armies says:“ They may build, but I will tear down; and people will call them the territory of wickedness, and the people with whom the Lord is indignant forever.”

Even though Edom has said,“ We have been impoverished, But we will return and build the desolate places,” Thus says the Lord of hosts:“ They may build, but I will throw down; They shall be called the Territory of Wickedness, And the people against whom the Lord will have indignation forever.

Whereas Edom saith, We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places; thus saith Jehovah of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and men shall call them The border of wickedness, and The people against whom Jehovah hath indignation for ever.

Though Edom says:“ We have been devastated, but we will rebuild the ruins,” the Lord of Hosts says this:“ They may build, but I will demolish. They will be called a wicked country and the people the Lord has cursed forever.

Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever.

Edom says,“ Though we are devastated, we will once again build the ruined places.” So the LORD who rules over all responds,“ They indeed may build, but I will overthrow. They will be known as the land of evil, the people with whom the LORD is permanently displeased.

Whereas Edom says,“ We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places;” Yahweh of Armies says,“ They shall build, but I will throw down; and men will call them‘ The Wicked Land,’ even the people against whom Yahweh shows wrath forever.”

以法莲和住撒马利亚的众民知道了，就心思自高自大，说：“砖头坠落了，我们就用凿好的石头重建；桑树砍倒了，我们就用香柏树更换！”

如果不是耶和华建造房屋，建造的人就枉然劳苦；如果不是耶和华看守城池，看守的人就枉然警醒。

他们将向西俯冲到非利士坡地，又一同掠夺东方人；他们伸手占有以东和摩押，亚扪人也将臣服于他们。

恨以扫；我使以扫的山地变得荒凉，把他的继业给旷野的豺狗。”

不与我在一起的，就是在反对我；不与我一起收集的，就是在拆散。

现在来吧！你们这些人哪，你们说“今天或明天，我们要到某某城去，要在那里住上一年，做生意赚钱。”你们不知道明天是什么、生命是什么！你们不过是一阵云雾，出现片刻，随后就消失了。你们倒应该说：“主如果愿意，我们就将活着，做这事或做那事。”但如今，你们在自己的骄傲中夸耀。凡是这样的夸耀，都是邪恶的。

昼夜总不熄灭，烟气永远上腾；那地世世代代荒凉，永永远远无人经过。

斧头怎能向用斧伐木的人自夸呢？锯子怎能向拉锯的人自大呢？这简直是说，棍能挥动那举棍的，木杖能举起那本不是木头的人！因此，主万军之耶和华必使衰败临到亚述王肥壮的勇士；在亚述王的荣耀之下，必有火燃起，如同烈火燃烧。

你们只能屈身在被掳的人之中，仆倒在被杀的人中间。即使如此，耶和华的怒气还不转消，他的手仍然伸出。

我耶和华的刀在天上已经喝足了，看哪，这刀要落下施行审判，落在我命定灭绝的民以东人身上！

这从以东的波斯拉而来，穿深红色衣服的是谁呢？这衣着尊贵，以强大能力前行的是谁呢？“就是我，是我藉着公义说话，以大能施行拯救。”你的衣着为什么赤红呢？你的衣服为什么像榨酒池中踹酒之人的呢？“我独自踹酒槽，万民中没有一人与我在一起。我在怒气中踹他们，在怒火中踩踏他们；他们的血水溅在我的衣服上，我把全身的衣服都染污了；因为报复之日已在我心中，我的救赎之年已经来到。我观看，竟没有一人帮助；我震惊，竟没有一人扶助；于是我自己的膀臂为我带来了拯救，我自己的怒火扶助了我。我在怒气中践踏万民，在怒火中使他们醉了，又把他们的血水倒在地上。”

耶和华啊，求你记住耶路撒冷遭难的日子，以东的子孙说过：“拆光！拆光！直到她的根基！”

任何的智慧、聪慧和谋略，都无法在耶和华面前站立得住。
