Then I said to them,“ You see the bad situation we are in, that Jerusalem is desolate and its gates have been burned by fire. Come, let’s rebuild the wall of Jerusalem so that we will no longer be a disgrace.”

以后，我对他们说：“我们所遭的难，耶路撒冷怎样荒凉，城门被火焚烧，你们都看见了。来吧，我们重建耶路撒冷的城墙，免得再受凌辱！”

以后，我对他们说：“我们所遭的难，耶路撒冷怎样荒凉，城门被火焚烧，你们都看见了。来吧，让我们重建耶路撒冷的城墙，免得再受凌辱！”

以后，我对他们说：“我们所遭的难，耶路撒冷怎样荒凉，城门被火焚烧，你们都看见了。来吧，让我们重建耶路撒冷的城墙，免得再受凌辱！”

后来我对他们说：“你们都看到了我们的困境。耶路撒冷已成废墟，城门也被烧毁。来吧，让我们重建耶路撒冷的城墙，免得我们再受凌辱。”

后来我对他们说：“你们都看见我们遭遇的患难：耶路撒冷成了荒芜之地，城门被火焚毁，你们都来吧！让我们重建耶路撒冷的城墙，免得我们再受凌辱。”

以後，我對他們說：「我們所遭的難，耶路撒冷怎樣荒涼，城門被火焚燒，你們都看見了。來吧，我們重建耶路撒冷的城牆，免得再受凌辱！」

以後，我對他們說：「我們所遭的難，耶路撒冷怎樣荒涼，城門被火焚燒，你們都看見了。來吧，讓我們重建耶路撒冷的城牆，免得再受凌辱！」

以後，我對他們說：「我們所遭的難，耶路撒冷怎樣荒涼，城門被火焚燒，你們都看見了。來吧，讓我們重建耶路撒冷的城牆，免得再受凌辱！」

後來我對他們說：「你們都看到了我們的困境。耶路撒冷已成廢墟，城門也被燒毀。來吧，讓我們重建耶路撒冷的城牆，免得我們再受凌辱。」

後來我對他們說：“你們都看見我們遭遇的患難：耶路撒冷成了荒蕪之地，城門被火焚毀，你們都來吧！讓我們重建耶路撒冷的城牆，免得我們再受凌辱。”

以後我卻對他們說：『我們所遇見的患難，耶路撒冷怎樣荒廢，它的城門怎樣被火焚燒，你們都看見了：來吧！我們修造耶路撒冷的城牆吧！免得再受恥辱。』

今謂之曰、耶路撒冷荒蕪、其門被燬、處此苦境、爾所目擊、我儕其來、重築耶路撒冷、勿復受辱、

惟謂之曰、耶路撒冷、其地荒蕪、其門被燬、遭此蹂躪、爾所目擊、不如重築城垣、毋為人姍笑。

後、我謂之曰、耶路撒冷荒蕪、邑門被燬、我儕處斯苦境、爾所目睹、不如重建耶路撒冷城垣、免再受恥笑、

Then I said to them,“ You see the trouble we are in: Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been burned with fire. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, and we will no longer be in disgrace.”

I said to them,“ You can see the trouble we’re in. Jerusalem has been destroyed. Fire has burned up its gates. Come on. Let’s rebuild the wall of Jerusalem. Then people won’t be ashamed anymore.”

Then I said to them,“ You see the trouble we are in, how Jerusalem lies in ruins with its gates burned. Come, let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer suffer derision.”

But now I said to them,“ You know very well what trouble we are in. Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been destroyed by fire. Let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem and end this disgrace!”

So I said to them,“ You see the trouble we are in. Jerusalem lies in ruins and its gates have been burned. Come, let’s rebuild Jerusalem’s wall, so that we will no longer be a disgrace.”

Then I said to them,“ You see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lies waste, and its gates are burned with fire. Come and let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer be a reproach.”

Then said I unto them, Ye see the evil case that we are in, how Jerusalem lieth waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach.

So I said to them,“ You see the trouble we are in. Jerusalem lies in ruins and its gates have been burned down. Come, let’s rebuild Jerusalem’s wall, so that we will no longer be a disgrace.”

Then said I unto them, Ye see the distress that we[ are] in, how Jerusalem[ lieth] waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach.

Then I said to them,“ You see the problem that we have: Jerusalem is desolate and its gates are burned. Come on! Let’s rebuild the wall of Jerusalem so that this reproach will not continue.”

Then I said to them,“ You see the bad situation that we are in, how Jerusalem lies waste, and its gates are burned with fire. Come, let’s build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we won’t be disgraced.”

Moreover, I will make you a site of ruins and a disgrace among the nations that surround you, in the sight of everyone who passes by.

And they said to me,“ The remnant there in the province who survived the captivity are in great distress and disgrace, and the wall of Jerusalem is broken down and its gates have been burned with fire.”

We have become a disgrace before our neighbors, An object of derision and ridicule to those around us.

You have made us mere refuse and rubbish In the midst of the peoples.All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.

I will make them an object of terror and an evil for all the kingdoms of the earth, as a disgrace and a proverb, a taunt and a curse in all the places where I will scatter them.

My eyes bring pain to my soul Because of all the daughters of my city.

Remember, Lord, the taunt against Your servants; How I carry in my heart the taunts of all the many peoples,With which Your enemies have taunted, Lord, With which they have taunted the footsteps of Your anointed.

Strengthen the exhausted, and make the feeble strong.Say to those with anxious heart,“ Take courage, fear not. Behold, your God will come with vengeance; The retribution of God will come, But He will save you.”

And return to our neighbors seven times as much into their lap Their taunts with which they have taunted You, Lord.

The Lord has destroyed; He has not spared All the settlements of Jacob. In His wrath He has overthrown The strongholds of the daughter of Judah, He has hurled them down to the ground; He has profaned the kingdom and its leaders.

But Nahash the Ammonite said to them,“ I will make it with you on this condition, that I will gouge out the right eye of every one of you, and thereby I will inflict a disgrace on all Israel.”

When the prophets, Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied to the Jews who were in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, who was over them,then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and Jeshua the son of Jozadak rose up and began to rebuild the house of God which is in Jerusalem; and the prophets of God were with them, supporting them.

The Lord determined to destroy The wall of the daughter of Zion. He has stretched out a line, He has not restrained His hand from destroying, And He has caused rampart and wall to mourn; They have languished together.Her gates have sunk into the ground, He has destroyed and broken her bars. Her king and her leaders are among the nations; The Law is gone. Her prophets, too, find No vision from the Lord.

Shecaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, said to Ezra,“ We have been unfaithful to our God and have married foreign women from the peoples of the land; yet now there is hope for Israel in spite of this.So now let’s make a covenant with our God to send away all the wives and their children, following the counsel of my lord and of those who fear the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the Law.Arise! For this matter is your responsibility, but we will be with you; be courageous and act.”

You make us an object of reproach to our neighbors, Of scoffing and ridicule to those around us.

You have become guilty by the blood which you have shed, and you have become defiled by your idols which you have made. So you have brought your days closer and have come to your years; therefore I have made you a disgrace to the nations, and an object of mocking to all the lands.Those who are near and those who are far from you will make fun of you, you of ill repute, full of turmoil.
