耶利米書 9:2 ^ 惟願我在曠野有行路人住宿之處、使我可以離開我的民出去．因他們都是行姦淫的、是行詭詐的一黨。	Jeremiah 9:2 ^ If only I had in the waste land a night's resting-place for travellers, so that I might go away, far from my people! for they are all untrue, a band of false men.
耶利米書 9:3 ^ 他們彎起舌頭、像弓一樣、為要說謊話．他們在國中、增長勢力、不是為行誠實、乃是惡上加惡、並不認識我．這是耶和華說的。	Jeremiah 9:3 ^ Their tongues are bent like a bow to send out false words: they have become strong in the land, but not for good faith: they go on from evil to evil, and they have no knowledge of me, says the Lord.

耶利米書 9:10 ^ 我要為山嶺哭泣悲哀、為曠野的草場揚聲哀號、因為都已乾焦、甚至無人經過．人也聽不見牲畜鳴叫．空中的飛鳥、和地上的野獸、都已逃去。	Jeremiah 9:10 ^ Give yourselves to weeping, crying out in sorrow for the mountains; and for the fields of the waste land send up a song of grief, because they are burned up, so that no one goes through; there is no sound of cattle; the bird of the heavens and the beast are in flight and are gone.

耶利米書 9:13 ^ 耶和華說、因為這百姓離棄我在他們面前所設立的律法、沒有遵行、也沒有聽從我的話．	Jeremiah 9:13 ^ And the Lord said, Because they have given up my law which I put before them, giving no attention to my voice and not being guided by it;
耶利米書 9:14 ^ 只隨從自己頑梗的心行事、照他們列祖所教訓的、隨從眾巴力．	Jeremiah 9:14 ^ But they have been walking in the pride of their hearts, going after the Baals, as their fathers gave them teaching.

耶利米書 9:24 ^ 誇口的卻因他有聰明、認識我是耶和華、又知道我喜悅在世上施行慈愛公平和公義、以此誇口．這是耶和華說的。	Jeremiah 9:24 ^ But if any man has pride, let it be in this, that he has the wisdom to have knowledge of me, that I am the Lord, working mercy, giving true decisions, and doing righteousness in the earth: for in these things I have delight, says the Lord.
