上帝歟、奚永棄我、奚向爾草場之羊、發爾烈怒乎、

上帝兮、昔爾牧民、猶牧群羊、何為棄予如遺、加以震怒、氣如烟燄兮、

天主歟、因何永遠遺棄我儕、主昔牧我如牧群羊、今因何向我大震烈怒、

吁嗟我恩主。胡為長不顧。何事對爾羊。炎炎熾恚怒。

O God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?

God, why have you turned your back on us for so long? Why are you so angry with us? We are your very own sheep.

For he is our God; we are the people of his pasture, the sheep he owns. Today, if only you would obey him!

Acknowledge that the LORD is God! He made us and we belong to him; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.

The LORD will be unwilling to forgive him, and his intense anger will rage against that man; all the curses written in this scroll will fall upon him and the LORD will obliterate his name from memory.

Then we, your people, the sheep of your pasture, will continually thank you. We will tell coming generations of your praiseworthy acts.

But you rejected and embarrassed us! You did not go into battle with our armies.

I asked,“ Will the Lord reject me forever? Will he never again show me his favor?

The LORD says,“ The leaders of my people are sure to be judged. They were supposed to watch over my people like shepherds watch over their sheep. But they are causing my people to be destroyed and scattered.

And you, my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are my people, and I am your God, declares the sovereign LORD.’”

Have you not rejected us, O God? O God, you do not go into battle with our armies.

So I ask, God has not rejected his people, has he? Absolutely not! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew! Do you not know what the scripture says about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?

I will pray to God, my high ridge:“ Why do you ignore me? Why must I walk around mourning because my enemies oppress me?”

O God, you have rejected us. You suddenly turned on us in your anger. Please restore us!

“ Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father is well pleased to give you the kingdom.

Why are you depressed, O my soul? Why are you upset? Wait for God! For I will again give thanks to my God for his saving intervention.

Smoke ascended from his nose; fire devoured as it came from his mouth; he hurled down fiery coals.

Pay attention, my people, to my instruction! Listen to the words I speak!

How long will this go on, O LORD? Will you stay angry forever? How long will your rage burn like fire?

Why, LORD, do you stand far off? Why do you pay no attention during times of trouble?

But you refuse to believe because you are not my sheep.My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; no one will snatch them from my hand.My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can snatch them from my Father’s hand.The Father and I are one.”

As surely as I live, declares the sovereign LORD, my sheep have become prey and have become food for all the wild beasts. There was no shepherd, and my shepherds did not search for my flock, but fed themselves and did not feed my sheep,

The LORD says,“ I will not reject all the descendants of Israel because of all that they have done. That could only happen if the heavens above could be measured or the foundations of the earth below could all be explored,” says the LORD.

“ You have surely noticed what these people are saying, haven’t you? They are saying,‘ The LORD has rejected the two families of Israel and Judah that he chose.’ So they have little regard that my people will ever again be a nation.But I, the LORD, make the following promise: I have made a covenant governing the coming of day and night. I have established the fixed laws governing heaven and earth.Just as surely as I have done this, so surely will I never reject the descendants of Jacob. Nor will I ever refuse to choose one of my servant David’s descendants to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Indeed, I will restore them and show mercy to them.”
