西番雅书第2章

《圣经》西番雅书-第2章

番2:1 不知羞耻的国民哪，你们应当聚集！趁命令没有发出，日子过去如风前的糠，耶和华的烈怒未临到你们，他发怒的日子未到以先，你们应当聚集前来。 (串)珥2:16|伯21:18诗1:4赛17:13|王下23:26

†[吕]懦弱无耻的人哪，振作精神吧！振作！趁你们还未被粉碎，命令没有发出，趁日子还未像糠秕过去，趁永恒主的烈怒还未临到来攻击你们，趁永恒主忿怒的日子还未临到来攻击你们，你们振作精神吧！

†[思]没有廉耻的民族！在你们尚未像糠秕一朝被吹散之前，在上主的怒火尚未来到你们身上，在上主忿怒的日子尚未来到你们身上以前，你们聚首检讨吧！

†[当代]你们这些不知羞耻的人啊，你们应该在审判还没有开始，机会还没有像糠秕那样被吹走，主的烈怒还没有临到你们身上以前，赶快聚集起来。

†[新译]无耻的国民哪！你们要聚集，要聚集起来。

†[Wlb]无耻之邦欤、尔其会集、

†[Xdv]不知耻的国家啊，觉醒吧！

†[Kjv]Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired;

†[Nkjv]Gather yourselves together, yes, gather together, O undesirable nation,

†[BBE]Come together, make everyone come together, O nation without shame;

†[GNT] Shameless nation, come to your senses

†[NIV]Gather together, gather together, O shameful nation,

本会注释　　你们应当聚集。先知劝百姓聚集，因为一起认罪，求告上帝，彼此联合会产生力量。
　　不知羞耻（kasaph）。直译为“变白”（故keseph为白色的金属，即银子）。Kasaph在这里有两种意思：“渴望”或“羞耻”。如果犹大没有“渴望”，就说明这个民族不配得到上帝的慈爱和保护。而如果它“不知羞耻”，就说明百姓对自己的罪没有正确的认识。

番2:2 －

†[吕]－

†[思]－

†[当代]－

†[新译]趁命令还没有发出，日子还没有像风前的糠秕一般吹过，耶和华的烈怒还没有临到你们，耶和华忿怒的日子还没有临到你们以前，你们要聚集起来！

†[Wlb]即于命令未出、光阴未逝、其速如糠、耶和华烈怒未降、忿恚之日未至以先、会集而来、

†[Xdv]在你还没有像一朵花凋谢以前，在上主的怒火没有烧到以前，在他发烈怒的日子以前，觉醒吧！

†[Kjv]Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD's anger come upon you.

†[Nkjv]Before the decree is issued, Or the day passes like chaff, Before the LORD's fierce anger comes upon you, Before the day of the LORD's anger comes upon you!

†[BBE]Before the Lord sends you violently away in flight like the waste from the grain; before the burning wrath of the Lord comes on you, before the day of the Lord's wrath comes on you.

†[GNT] before you are driven away like chaff blown by the wind, before the burning anger of the Lord comes upon you, before the day when he shows his fury.

†[NIV]before the appointed time arrives and that day sweeps on like chaff, before the fierce anger of the Lord comes upon you, before the day of the Lord 's wrath comes upon you.

番2:3 世上遵守耶和华典章的谦卑人哪，你们都当寻求耶和华！当寻求公义谦卑，或者在耶和华发怒的日子可以隐藏起来。 (串)诗76:9|诗105:4摩5:6|珥2:14摩5:15拿3:9

†[吕]地上所有的卑微人，遵行永恒主典章的阿，你们要寻求永恒主；要寻求公义、寻求谦卑，或者当永恒主发怒的日子你们得以蒙隐藏。

†[思]地上所有遵守法律的卑微人！你们应求上主，你们要寻求公义，要寻求谦和，也许你们在上主忿怒的日子能藏身免祸。

†[当代]世上所有谦卑又遵守主命令的人哪，你们应当寻求祂和追求公义与谦卑。这样，在主发怒的日子，你们也许可以藏身免祸。

†[新译]地上所有谦卑的人，就是遵守耶和华典章的人哪！你们要寻求耶和华，你们要寻求公义，寻求谦卑。在耶和华忿怒的日子，你们或许得以隐藏起来。

†[Wlb]大地之上、凡谦卑而守律例者、当寻求耶和华、寻求公义与谦卑、则于耶和华忿怒之日、庶可藏匿、

†[Xdv]在这地上所有谦虚地听从他命令的人哪，寻求上主吧！你们要追求正义，在上主面前谦卑。也许在上主发怒的日子，你们可以逃脱惩罚。

†[Kjv]Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD's anger.

†[Nkjv]Seek the LORD, all you meek of the earth, Who have upheld His justice. Seek righteousness, seek humility. It may be that you will be hidden In the day of the LORD's anger.

†[BBE]Make search for the Lord, all you quiet ones of the earth, who have done what is right in his eyes; make search for righteousness and a quiet heart: it may be that you will be safely covered in the day of the Lord's wrath.

†[GNT] Turn to the Lord, all you humble people of the land, who obey his commands. Do what is right, and humble yourselves before the Lord. Perhaps you will escape punishment on the day when the Lord shows his anger.

†[NIV]Seek the Lord , all you humble of the land, you who do what he commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the Lord 's anger.

本会注释　　典章。即上帝惩罚犹大的旨意（见1:2,4,8,18）。关于这个预言用于末日，见@番1:7@注释。
　　寻求耶和华。先知鼓励那些自称侍奉上帝并遵守祂律法的人要忠于上帝。
　　谦卑。与上面所说的骄傲自满，不知羞耻完全相反（见第1节注释）。关于骄傲的精神，见@太5:5@注释。
　　遵守。虽然犹大背教堕落了，仍有一些人忠于上帝。

番2:4 迦萨必致见弃；亚实基伦必然荒凉。人在正午必赶出亚实突的民；以革伦也被拔出根来。 (串)耶47:4,5摩1:6-8|耶6:4;15:8

†[吕]因为迦萨（与‘被撇弃’读音相似）必被撇弃；亚实基伦必定荒凉；亚实突必在中午被赶逐；以革伦（与‘被拔出根来’同字）必被拔出根来。

†[思]因为茄萨将被抛弃，阿市刻隆必被铲除。

†[当代]非利士人的城邑：迦萨、亚实基伦、亚实突和以革伦都要被连根拔起，成为荒场。

†[新译]因为迦萨必被拋弃，亚实基伦必成荒场，亚实突的居民必在晌午被赶走；以革伦必连根拔起来。

†[Wlb]迦萨必阒寂、亚实基伦必荒凉、亚实突亭午被逐、以革伦见拔、

†[Xdv]迦萨城里没有人存活；亚实基伦要荒凉。亚实突的人民要在中午被赶走；以革伦的居民也被逐出城外。

†[Kjv]For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noon day, and Ekron shall be rooted up.

†[Nkjv]For Gaza shall be forsaken, And Ashkelon desolate; They shall drive out Ashdod at noonday, And Ekron shall be uprooted.

†[BBE]For Gaza will be given up and Ashkelon will become waste: they will send Ashdod out in the middle of the day, and Ekron will be uprooted.

†[GNT] No one will be left in the city of Gaza. Ashkelon will be deserted. The people of Ashdod will be driven out in half a day, and the people of Ekron will be driven from their city.

†[NIV]Gaza will be abandoned and Ashkelon left in ruins. At midday Ashdod will be emptied and Ekron uprooted.

本会注释　　迦萨。这里提到非利士五座主要城市中的四座，是代表整个国家（见摩1:6-8）。西番雅和阿摩斯一样省略了迦特（见@摩1:6@注释）。
　　正午。这是一天中最热的时候，也是敌人最不可能发动进攻的时候。“正午”显然是指“意外”或“突然”（见耶15:8）。

番2:5 住沿海之地的基利提族有祸了！迦南、非利士人之地啊，耶和华的话与你反对，说：我必毁灭你，以致无人居住。 (串)结25:16|书13:3

†[吕]沿海地带的居民、基利提人的国有祸阿！有永恒主的话在谴责你们呢！非利士人之地阿，我必使你屈服（传统：迦南、非利士人之地阿）我必毁灭你，使你没有居民。

†[思]祸哉！沿海地带的居民，革勒提民族！看，这是木攻击你们的话：培肋舍特地！我要贬抑你，把你毁灭得再无固民！

†[当代]海边的基利提族和迦南的非利士人哪，你们有祸了！上帝要毁灭你们，使你们那里成为杳无人烟的地方。

†[新译]住在沿海地带的人，基列提的国民哪！你们有祸了。这是耶和华攻击你们的话：“非利士人之地迦南啊！我必毁灭你，使你那里没有人居住。

†[Wlb]祸哉、海滨居民、基利提族也、非利士人之地迦南欤、耶和华有言责尔、将歼灭尔、至无居民、

†[Xdv]住在沿岸的非利士人哪，你们惨啦！上主已经向你们宣判；他要毁灭你们，不留下一人。

†[Kjv]Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of the Cherethites! the word of the LORD is against you; O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant.

†[Nkjv]Woe to the inhabitants of the seacoast, The nation of the Cherethites! The word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines: "I will destroy you; So there shall be no inhabitant."

†[BBE]Sorrow to the people living by the sea, the nation of the Cherethites! The word of the Lord is against you, O Canaan, the land of the Philistines; I will send destruction on you till there is no one living in you.

†[GNT] You Philistines are doomed, you people who live along the coast. The Lord has passed sentence on you. He will destroy you, and not one of you will be left.

†[NIV]Woe to you who live by the sea, O Kerethite people; the word of the Lord is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines. "I will destroy you, and none will be left."

本会注释　　据认为，基利提族居住在非利士海岸的南部（见@撒上30:14@注释）。七十士译本为paroikoiKrētōn ，即“克里特人的邻居”或“克里特的寄居者”。

番2:6 沿海之地要变为草场，其上有牧人的住处和羊群的圈。 (串)赛17:2本章14

†[吕]沿海地带阿，你必变为草场，牧人的洞穴，羊群的垒圈。

†[思]沿海地带必将成为牧的牧场，羊群的羊栈。

†[当代]海岸的地方会变为草原，有牧人的居所和羊圈。

†[新译]沿海的地必成为草场、牧人的洞穴、羊群的圈栏。

†[Wlb]濒海之区、将为草场、有牧人之庐、群羊之牢、

†[Xdv]你们沿岸的地区要变成空旷的野地，祇有牧人的草棚和羊圈。

†[Kjv]And the sea coast shall be dwellings and cottages for shepherds, and folds for flocks.

†[Nkjv]The seacoast shall be pastures, With shelters for shepherds and folds for flocks.

†[BBE]And the land by the sea will be grass-land, with houses for keepers of sheep and walled places for flocks.

†[GNT] Your land by the sea will become open fields with shepherd's huts and sheep pens.

†[NIV]The land by the sea, where the Kerethites dwell, will be a place for shepherds and sheep pens.

本会注释　　沿海之地。当犹大的余民回归故土时，这地要赐给他们（见俄17-20）。
　　草场。即草原。

番2:7 这地必为犹大家剩下的人所得；他们必在那里牧放群羊，晚上必躺卧在亚实基伦的房屋中；因为耶和华他们的上帝必眷顾他们，使他们被掳的人归回。 (串)本章9赛11:11弥4:7;5:7,8|出4:31路1:68|诗126:1耶29:14番3:20

†[吕]这地带必为犹大家剩下的人所得；他们必在那里牧放群羊，晚上必躺在亚实基伦的房屋中；因为永恒主他们的上帝必眷顾他们，恢复他们的故业。

†[思]沿海地带必将归于犹大家的遗民；他们将沿着海滨放羊，晚上歇息在阿市刻隆的栈房，因为上主他们的天主必看顾他们，转变他们的境遇。

†[当代]这个地方会留给犹大的遗民，让他们在那里放牧，晚上他们就在亚实基伦的房子里休息，因为主他们的上帝必眷顾他们，救他们脱离厄运，使被掳的人能重归故国。

†[新译]这地必归给犹大家的余民；他们要在那里放牧，晚上他们躺卧在亚实基伦的房舍中；因为耶和华他们的　神必眷顾他们，使他们从被掳之地归回。”

†[Wlb]海滨将归于犹大家之遗民、牧畜于彼、暮则卧于亚实基伦之室、盖其上帝耶和华必眷顾之、而返其俘囚也、

†[Xdv]劫后余生的犹大人民将占领你们的土地；他们要在那里放羊，在亚实基伦的房屋里睡觉。上主──他们的上帝要顾念他们，使他们回乡重整家园。

†[Kjv]And the coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; they shall feed thereupon: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening: for the LORD their God shall visit them, and turn away their captivity.

†[Nkjv]The coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; They shall feed their flocks there; In the houses of Ashkelon they shall lie down at evening. For the LORD their God will intervene for them, And return their captives.

†[BBE]The land by the sea will be for the rest of the children of Judah; by the sea they will give their flocks food: in the houses of Ashkelon they will take their rest in the evening; for the Lord their God will take them in hand and their fate will be change

†[GNT] The people of Judah who survive will occupy your land. They will pasture their flocks there and sleep in the houses of Ashkelon. The Lord their God will be with them and make them prosper again.

†[NIV]It will belong to the remnant of the house of Judah; there they will find pasture. In the evening they will lie down in the houses of Ashkelon. The Lord their God will care for them; he will restore their fortunes.

本会注释　　上帝的眷顾是为了人的益处和福惠（见@诗8:4；59:5@注释）。先知坚信他的同胞会摆脱巴比伦的奴役。非利士人的覆灭只是那件大事的前奏。

番2:8 我听见摩押人的毁谤和亚扪人的辱骂，就是毁谤我的百姓，自夸自大，侵犯他们的境界。 (串)耶48:27结25:8|结25:3,6|耶49:1

†[吕]我听见摩押的嘲骂，和亚扪人的毁谤；他们怎样嘲骂我的人民，自夸自大以侵犯他们的境界。

†[思]我听到了摩阿布的辱骂，阿孟子民火诋诟；他们辱骂了我的百姓，欺凌了我的领域。

†[当代]万军之主以色列的上帝说：“我听见摩押人的毁谤和亚扪人辱骂的声音。他们妄自尊大，侮辱我的子民，侵犯他们的土地。

†[新译]我听见了摩押人的辱骂之言，听见了亚扪人的毁谤之语，他们辱骂我的子民，又自夸自大侵犯他们的境界。

†[Wlb]摩押之毁谤、亚扪人之诟辱、我闻之矣、彼诋我民、自大而侵其境、

†[Xdv]上主──万军的统帅这样说：“我听见摩押人的嘲笑和亚扪人的辱；他们嘲笑我的子民，扬言要侵占他们的土地。

†[Kjv]I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the children of Ammon, whereby they have reproached my people, and magnified themselves against their border.

†[Nkjv]"I have heard the reproach of Moab, And the insults of the people of Ammon, With which they have reproached My people, And made arrogant threats against their borders.

†[BBE]My ears have been open to the bitter words of Moab and the words of shame of the children of Ammon, which they have said against my people, lifting themselves up against the limit of their land.

†[GNT] The Lord Almighty says, "I have heard the people of Moab and Ammon insulting and taunting my people, and boasting that they would seize their land.

†[NIV]I have heard the insults of Moab and the taunts of the Ammonites, who insulted my people and made threats against their land.

本会注释　　摩押人的毁谤。罗得的后代亚扪人和摩押人是以色列人的死敌，尽管他们有血缘关系（见@摩1:13；2:1@注释）。
　　侵犯他们的疆界。七十士译本为“侵犯我的海岸”。上帝称以色列为“我的民”，所以“以色列的疆界”可以称为“我的” 疆界。侵犯它也就是侵犯上帝（见申32:8,9）。

番2:9 万军之耶和华以色列的上帝说：我指着我的永生起誓：摩押必象所多玛，亚扪人必象蛾摩拉，都变为刺草、盐坑、永远荒废之地。我百姓所剩下的必掳掠他们；我国中所余剩的必得着他们的地。 (串)赛15:1-9耶48:1-47结25:9|摩1:13|本章7

†[吕]故此万军之永恒主以色列之上帝发神谕说：“我指着永活的我来起誓：摩押必像所多玛，亚扪人必像蛾摩拉，都被刺草和盐坑占据，荒凉凉到永远。我剩下的余民必掳掠他们，我国中余剩的人必得着他们以为业。

†[思]为此，我指着我的生命起誓──万军的上主，以色列天主火断语：摩阿布必要像索多玛，哈孟子民必要像哈摩辣，变为荆棘丛、监堆、荒野，直到永远。我百姓的遗民要劫掠他们，我民族的残馀，要占领他们的产业。

†[当代]我指著自己的永生起誓，我必定使摩押和亚扪像所多玛和蛾摩拉一样荆棘丛生，到处都是不毛的盐坑，永远萧索荒芜；我的遗民必定掳掠他们，占领他们的土地。”

†[新译]因此，万军之耶和华以色列的　神说：“我指着我的永生起誓：摩押人必要像所多玛，亚扪人必定像蛾摩拉，成为刺草和盐坑之所，永远荒凉之地。我余下的子民必掳掠他们，我国中所余的要得着他们为业。”

†[Wlb]故万军之耶和华、以色列之上帝曰、我指己生而誓、摩押将如所多玛、亚扪将如蛾摩拉、遍成蒺藜斥卤之地、永久荒芜、我之遗民、必虏其人、我之余民、必据其土、

†[Xdv]我是以色列永生的上帝；我发誓，摩押一定要像所多玛，亚扪要像蛾摩拉一样毁灭。它们要变成盐坑之地，永远荒废，莠草蔓生。我那些劫后余生的子民要掠夺他们，占领他们的土地。”

†[Kjv]Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall spoil them, and t

†[Nkjv]Therefore, as I live," Says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Surely Moab shall be like Sodom, And the people of Ammon like Gomorrah-- Overrun with weeds and saltpits, And a perpetual desolation. The residue of My people shall plunder them, And the r

†[BBE]For this cause, by my life, says the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, truly Moab will become like Sodom and the children of Ammon like Gomorrah, given up to waste plants and salt pools and unpeopled for ever: the rest of my people will take their proper

†[GNT] As surely as I am the living Lord, the God of Israel, I swear that Moab and Ammon are going to be destroyed like Sodom and Gomorrah. They will become a place of salt pits and everlasting ruin, overgrown with weeds. Those of my people who survive will plu

†[NIV]Therefore, as surely as I live," declares the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, "surely Moab will become like Sodom, the Ammonites like Gomorrah- a place of weeds and salt pits, a wasteland forever. The remnant of my people will plunder them; the survivor

本会注释　　万军之耶和华。见@耶7:3@注释。上帝这样称自己，说明祂的大能会使祂对敌人的警告生效。
　　摩押人必象。摩押和亚扪靠近死海，就是古代的所多玛和蛾摩拉附近（见@创13:10@注释），这使得针对犹大邻国的预言更加有力。

番2:10 这事临到他们是因他们骄傲，自夸自大，毁谤万军之耶和华的百姓。 (串)赛16:6耶48:29

†[吕]这事临到他们、是因他们的狂傲，自夸自大以攻击万军之永恒主的人民。

†[思]这事要临到他们身上，是由于他们的的傲慢，因为他们辱骂欺凌了万军的上主的百姓。

†[当代]他们得到这样的下场，全是因为他们狂妄自大，目空一切，藐视万军之主的子民。

†[新译]由于他们的狂傲，这事就临到他们；因为他们自夸自大，辱骂万军之耶和华的子民。

†[Wlb]因彼骄矜自大、毁谤万军耶和华之民、故必遇此也、

†[Xdv]摩押和亚扪的人民要这样被惩罚；因为他们骄傲自大，侮辱上主──万军统帅的子民。

†[Kjv]This shall they have for their pride, because they have reproached and magnified themselves against the people of the LORD of hosts.

†[Nkjv]This they shall have for their pride, Because they have reproached and made arrogant threats Against the people of the LORD of hosts.

†[BBE]This will be their fate because of their pride, because they have said evil, lifting themselves up against the people of the Lord of armies.

†[GNT] That is how the people of Moab and Ammon will be punished for their pride and arrogance and for insulting the people of the Lord Almighty.

†[NIV]This is what they will get in return for their pride, for insulting and mocking the people of the Lord Almighty.

本会注释　　万军之耶和华。见第9节；@耶7:3@注释。

番2:11 耶和华必向他们显可畏之威，因他必叫世上的诸神瘦弱。列国海岛的居民各在自己的地方敬拜他。 (串)创10:5|玛1:11约4:21

†[吕]永恒主必向他们必显为可畏惧，因为他必使地上众神明都饥饿瘦弱，列国沿海地带都各自从自己的地方敬拜他。

†[思]上主必要威严地显示给他们，因为要消灭地上的一切神；那时异邦各笆岛屿，各从自己的地方朝拜。

†[当代]主必向他们显出威严，叫世上所有的神明失势。各处的人，甚至列国列岛的居民，都会从自已的地方赶来敬拜祂。

†[新译]对于他们，耶和华是可畏惧的，因为他要消灭地上一切神祇；那时，列国海岛上的居民，都各在自己的地方敬拜他。

†[Wlb]耶和华必向之显为可畏、使地上诸神受馁、列邦群岛之民、各在其所崇拜耶和华、

†[Xdv]上主要使他们惊惶失措；他要除灭世上的神明。然后每一个国家都会在自己的国土上敬拜他。

†[Kjv]The LORD will be terrible unto them: for he will famish all the gods of the earth; and men shall worship him, every one from his place, even all the isles of the heathen.

†[Nkjv]The LORD will be awesome to them, For He will reduce to nothing all the gods of the earth; People shall worship Him, Each one from his place, Indeed all the shores of the nations.

†[BBE]The Lord will let himself be seen by them: for he will make all the gods of the earth feeble; and men will go down before him in worship, everyone from his place, even all the sea-lands of the nations.

†[GNT] The Lord will terrify them. He will reduce the gods of the earth to nothing, and then every nation will worship him, each in its own land.

†[NIV]The Lord will be awesome to them when he destroys all the gods of the land. The nations on every shore will worship him, every one in its own land.

本会注释　　瘦弱（razah）。“失势”。先知期待世上诸神的失势。那时不再有人向他们献祭敬拜。
　　各自。见赛19:18,19；玛1:11。
　　海岛。或海岸。指需要航海才能到达的遥远国家。

番2:12 古实人哪，你们必被我的刀所杀。 (串)赛18:1;20:4耶46:9|诗17:13

†[吕]你们呢、古实人哪，你们也必给我的刀刺杀。

†[思]连你们雇士人，也要为我的刀剑所刺透。

†[当代]古实人哪，你们也必死在主的刀下。

†[新译]古实人哪！你们也必被我的刀剑所杀。

†[Wlb]古实人欤、尔亦必见戮于我刃、

†[Xdv]上主也要击杀苏但人。

†[Kjv]Ye Ethiopians also, ye shall be slain by my sword.

†[Nkjv]"You Ethiopians also, You shall be slain by My sword."

†[BBE]And you Ethiopians will be put to death by my sword.

†[GNT] The Lord will also put the people of Ethiopia to death.

†[NIV]You too, O Cushites, will be slain by my sword."

本会注释　　古实人（Kushim）。见@创10:6@注释。包括努比亚和靠近红海的部分阿拉伯地区。

番2:13 耶和华必伸手攻击北方，毁灭亚述，使尼尼微荒凉，又干旱如旷野。 (串)赛10:12结31:3|鸿1:1;2:10

†[吕]永恒主必伸手攻击北方，毁灭亚述；他必使尼尼微荒凉，乾旱如旷野。

†[思]还要向北方伸出自己的手，为消灭亚述，使尼尼微化为荒地，像杪漠一样乾旱。

†[当代]祂要伸手攻击北方，毁灭亚述，使尼尼微城变为废墟，像沙漠一样干旱。

†[新译]耶和华必伸手攻击北方，毁灭亚述，使尼尼微变成荒场，干旱像旷野。

†[Wlb]耶和华将伸手向北、而灭亚述、使尼尼微荒芜、旱干如旷野、

†[Xdv]上主要用他的大能毁灭亚述；他要使尼尼微城成为荒凉干涸的旷野。

†[Kjv]And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like a wilderness.

†[Nkjv]And He will stretch out His hand against the north, Destroy Assyria, And make Nineveh a desolation, As dry as the wilderness.

†[BBE]And his hand will be stretched out against the north, for the destruction of Assyria; and he will make Nineveh unpeopled and dry like the waste land.

†[GNT] The Lord will use his power to destroy Assyria. He will make the city of Nineveh a deserted ruin, a waterless desert.

†[NIV]He will stretch out his hand against the north and destroy Assyria, leaving Nineveh utterly desolate and dry as the desert.

本会注释　　亚述。虽然亚述表面上繁荣兴旺，先知预言它也会遭到上帝的惩罚（见赛10:12；结31:3-12和《那鸿书》）。
　　干旱如旷野。尼尼微的富饶源于其良好的灌溉。灌溉系统摧毁以后不久，尼尼微城就成为干旱地区。

番2:14 群畜，就是各国（国：或作类）的走兽必卧在其中；鹈鹕和箭猪要宿在柱顶上。在窗户内有鸣叫的声音；门槛都必毁坏，香柏木已经露出。 (串)本章6,7赛13:21,22;34:14|赛34:11|耶22:14

†[吕]群畜必躺于其间，平谷（传统：国）中各样走兽必卧在那里；叫枭和箭猪必住宿在柱顶上；鸱才（传统：声音）必在窗户内号鸣，乌雅（传统：荒废）必在门槛间啼叫：香柏木都必败坏露现。

†[思]牲畜和洼地所有的走兽必要卧息息其中，鹈鸪和也栖宿在她的柱头间，鸱枭在窗上啼叫，乌鸦停门槛上，因为人剥去了她以香柏做的装饰：

†[当代]各类的牲畜野兽必在那里栖息，鹈鹕和刺在他们房子的柱顶栖身，雀鸟在窗旁啼叫，门槛都朽坏了，香柏木的装饰也剥落下来了！

†[新译]群畜和各类的走兽必躺卧在其中；鹈鹕和箭猪栖宿在柱顶上；窗内有鸣叫的声音，门槛上必有荒凉；因为香柏木都要暴露出来。

†[Wlb]群畜各类之兽、将卧其中、鹈鹕鸬鹚、栖于柱顶、鸣于窗牖、门阈阒寂、香柏之制、俱已剥落、

†[Xdv]它将成为牛群、羊群，以及各种野兽躺卧的地方。猫头鹰在废墟中筑巢，从窗口鸣叫；乌鸦（希伯来文是：荒废）在阶前呱呱乱叫；建筑物中的香柏木要被抽掉。

†[BBE]And herds will take their rest in the middle of her, all the beasts of the valley: the pelican and the porcupine will make their living-places on the tops of its pillars; the owl will be crying in the window; the raven will be seen on the doorstep.

†[GNT] It will be a place where flocks, herds, and animals of every kind will lie down. Owls will live among its ruins and hoot from the windows. Crows will caw on the doorsteps. The cedar wood of her buildings will be stripped away.

†[NIV]Flocks and herds will lie down there, creatures of every kind. The desert owl and the screech owl will roost on her columns. Their calls will echo through the windows, rubble will be in the doorways, the beams of cedar will be exposed.

†[吕]这就是那素来欢跃的城，她自以为安稳而居住着，心里想着说：“我、我以外再没有别的。”如今怎么竟变为荒凉，竟成了为野兽的躺卧处阿！凡从那里经过的都必指手嗤笑她！

　　嗤笑。表示嘲笑或蔑视（见耶19:8；弥6:16）。
　　摇手。表示轻蔑地拒绝。
