耶利米書 29:2 ^ （這在耶哥尼雅王、和太后、太監、並猶大、耶路撒冷的首領、以及工匠、鐵匠、都離了耶路撒冷以後。）	Jeremiah 29:2 ^ (after that Jeconiah the king, and the queen-mother, and the eunuchs, [and] the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, and the craftsmen, and the smiths, were departed from Jerusalem,)
耶利米書 29:3 ^ 他藉沙番的兒子以利亞薩、和希勒家的兒子基瑪利的手寄去．他們二人、是猶大王西底家打發往巴比倫去見尼布甲尼撒王的。	Jeremiah 29:3 ^ by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent unto Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon,) saying,
耶利米書 29:4 ^ 信上說、萬軍之耶和華以色列的　神、對一切被擄去的、就是我使他們從耶路撒冷被擄到巴比倫的人、如此說、	Jeremiah 29:4 ^ Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, unto all the captivity, whom I have caused to be carried away captive from Jerusalem unto Babylon:
耶利米書 29:5 ^ 你們要蓋造房屋住在其中、栽種田園喫其中所產的。	Jeremiah 29:5 ^ Build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
耶利米書 29:6 ^ 娶妻生兒女、為你們的兒子娶妻、使你們的女兒嫁人、生兒養女、在那裡生養眾多、不至減少。	Jeremiah 29:6 ^ Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters; and multiply ye there, and be not diminished.
耶利米書 29:7 ^ 我所使你們被擄到的那城、你們要為那城求平安、為那城禱告耶和華、因為那城得平安、你們也隨著得平安。	Jeremiah 29:7 ^ And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray unto Jehovah for it; for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.
耶利米書 29:8 ^ 萬軍之耶和華以色列的　神如此說、不要被你們中間的先知和占卜的誘惑、也不要聽信自己所作的夢．	Jeremiah 29:8 ^ For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Let not your prophets that are in the midst of you, and your diviners, deceive you; neither hearken ye to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed.
耶利米書 29:9 ^ 因為他們託我的名對你們說假豫言、我並沒有差遣他們．這是耶和華說的。	Jeremiah 29:9 ^ For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name: I have not sent them, saith Jehovah.
耶利米書 29:10 ^ 耶和華如此說、為巴比倫所定的七十年滿了以後、我要眷顧你們、向你們成就我的恩言、使你們仍回此地。	Jeremiah 29:10 ^ For thus saith Jehovah, After seventy years are accomplished for Babylon, I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.

耶利米書 29:14 ^ 耶和華說、我必被你們尋見、我也必使你們被擄的人歸回、將你們從各國中、和我所趕你們到的各處招聚了來、又將你們帶回我使你們被擄掠離開的地方．這是耶和華說的。	Jeremiah 29:14 ^ And I will be found of you, saith Jehovah, and I will turn again your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places wither I have driven you, saith Jehovah; and I will bring you again unto the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.
耶利米書 29:15 ^ 你們說、耶和華在巴比倫為我們興起先知．	Jeremiah 29:15 ^ Because ye have said, Jehovah hath raised us up prophets in Babylon;
耶利米書 29:16 ^ 所以耶和華論到坐大衛寶座的王、和住在這城著的一切百姓、就是未曾與你們一同被擄的弟兄、	Jeremiah 29:16 ^ thus saith Jehovah concerning the king that sitteth upon the throne of David, and concerning all the people that dwell in this city, your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captivity;
耶利米書 29:17 ^ 萬軍之耶和華如此說、看哪、我必使刀劍、飢荒、瘟疫、臨到他們、使他們像極壞的無花果、壞得不可喫。	Jeremiah 29:17 ^ thus saith Jehovah of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so bad.

耶利米書 29:19 ^ 耶和華說、這是因為他們沒有聽從我的話、就是我從早起來差遣我僕人眾先知去說的、無奈他們不聽．這是耶和華說的。	Jeremiah 29:19 ^ because they have not hearkened to my words, saith Jehovah, wherewith I sent unto them my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith Jehovah.
耶利米書 29:20 ^ 所以你們一切被擄去的、就是我從耶路撒冷打發到巴比倫去的、當聽耶和華的話。	Jeremiah 29:20 ^ Hear ye therefore the word of Jehovah, all ye of the captivity, whom I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon.
耶利米書 29:21 ^ 萬軍之耶和華以色列的　神、論到哥賴雅的兒子亞哈、並瑪西雅的兒子西底家、如此說、他們是託我名向你們說假豫言的．我必將他們交在巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒的手中、他要在你們眼前殺害他們。	Jeremiah 29:21 ^ Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and concerning Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who prophesy a lie unto you in my name: Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall slay them before your eyes;
耶利米書 29:22 ^ 住巴比倫一切被擄的猶大人、必藉這二人賭咒、說、願耶和華使你像巴比倫王在火中燒的西底家和亞哈一樣。	Jeremiah 29:22 ^ and of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captives of Judah that are in Babylon, saying, Jehovah make thee like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire;
耶利米書 29:23 ^ 這二人是在以色列中行了醜事、與鄰舍的妻行淫、又假託我名說我未曾吩咐他們的話．知道的是我、作見證的也是我．這是耶和華說的。	Jeremiah 29:23 ^ because they have wrought folly in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbors' wives, and have spoken words in my name falsely, which I commanded them not; and I am he that knoweth, and am witness, saith Jehovah.
耶利米書 29:24 ^ 論到尼希蘭人示瑪雅、你當說、	Jeremiah 29:24 ^ And concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite thou shalt speak, saying,
耶利米書 29:25 ^ 萬軍之耶和華以色列的　神如此說、你曾用自己的名寄信給耶路撒冷的眾民、和祭司瑪西雅的兒子西番雅、並眾祭司、說、	Jeremiah 29:25 ^ Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Because thou hast sent letters in thine own name unto all the people that are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
耶利米書 29:26 ^ 耶和華已經立你西番雅為祭司、代替祭司耶何耶大、使耶和華殿中有官長、好將一切狂妄自稱為先知的人、用枷枷住、用鎖鎖住。	Jeremiah 29:26 ^ Jehovah hath made thee priest in the stead of Jehoiada the priest, that there may be officers in the house of Jehovah, for every man that is mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that thou shouldest put him in the stocks and in shackles.
耶利米書 29:27 ^ 現在亞拿突人耶利米、向你們自稱為先知、你們為何沒有責備他呢．	Jeremiah 29:27 ^ Now therefore, why hast thou not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth, who maketh himself a prophet to you,
耶利米書 29:28 ^ 因為他寄信給我們在巴比倫的人說、被擄的事必長久、你們要蓋造房屋住在其中、栽種田園喫其中所產的。	Jeremiah 29:28 ^ forasmuch as he hath sent unto us in Babylon, saying, [The captivity] is long: build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them?
耶利米書 29:29 ^ 祭司西番雅就把這信念給先知耶利米聽。	Jeremiah 29:29 ^ And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of Jeremiah the prophet.
耶利米書 29:30 ^ 於是耶和華的話臨到耶利米說、	Jeremiah 29:30 ^ Then came the word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying,
耶利米書 29:31 ^ 你當寄信給一切被擄的人、說、耶和華論到尼希蘭人示瑪雅說、因為示瑪雅向你們說豫言、我並沒有差遣他、他使你們倚靠謊言．	Jeremiah 29:31 ^ Send to all them of the captivity, saying, Thus saith Jehovah concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite: Because that Shemaiah hath prophesied unto you, and I sent him not, and he hath caused you to trust in a lie;
耶利米書 29:32 ^ 所以耶和華如此說、我必刑罰尼希蘭人示瑪雅、和他的後裔、他必無一人存留住在這民中、也不得見我所要賜與我百姓的福樂、因為他向耶和華說了叛逆的話。這是耶和華說的。	Jeremiah 29:32 ^ therefore thus saith Jehovah, Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seed; he shall not have a man to dwell among this people, neither shall he behold the good that I will do unto my people, saith Jehovah, because he hath spoken rebellion against Jehovah.
