1 我见主站在祭坛旁， 他说： "击打圣殿的柱顶， 使门槛都震动。砍掉它们， 落在众人的头上， 剩下的人我必用刀杀死； 没有一个能逃走， 没有一人逃脱。

2 如果他们下到阴间， 就是在那里， 我的手必把他们揪上来； 如果他们升到天上， 就是在那里， 我必把他们拉下来；

3 如果他们躲在迦密山顶， 就是在那里， 我必搜寻他们， 抓他们出来； 如果他们要躲避我， 藏在海底， 就是在那里， 我必命令蛇去咬他们；

4 如果他们被仇敌掳去， 就是在那里， 我必命令刀剑杀死他们； 我必定睛在他们身上， 降祸不降福。"

5 万军之主耶和华摸地， 地就融化， 住在地上的都要悲哀。这地必像尼罗河高涨， 像埃及的大河退落。

6 他在天上建立楼阁， 在大地之上奠立穹苍； 他召唤海水， 把海水浇在地上； 耶和华是他的名。

7 "以色列人哪！ 在我看来， 你们不是与古实人一样吗？我带领以色列人出埃及地， 不是也领非利士人出迦斐托， 领亚兰人出吉珥吗？"这是耶和华的宣告。

8 "看哪！ 耶和华的眼目察看这有罪的国， 我要把它从地上除灭； 却必不把雅各家完全除灭。"这是耶和华的宣告。

9 耶和华说： "看哪！ 我必下令， 我必在列国中筛以色列家， 好像人用筛子筛谷， 但谷粒不会落在地上。

10 我民中所有犯罪的人， 就是那些说： ‘灾祸必不临近、追上我们’的人， 他们必死在刀下。

11 "到那日， 我必竖立大卫倒塌的帐幕， 修补它们的破口； 我必重建它的废墟， 使它像往日一样建立起来。

12 好使他们获得以东所余剩的， 以及所有称为我名下的国。"这是行这些事的耶和华的宣告。

13 "日子快到， 这是耶和华的宣告。耕地的必紧接着收割的， 踹葡萄的必紧接着撒种的； 大山必滴下新酒， 小山必融化。

14 我必使我的子民以色列被掳的人回归， 他们必重建荒废的城， 住在其中； 他们必栽种葡萄园， 喝园中的酒； 建造果园， 吃园中的果子。

15 我必把他们栽于他们自己的土地， 他们再不会从我赐给他们的土地上被拔除。"这是耶和华你的 神说的。

1 I saw the Lord standing beside the altar: and he said, Smite the capitals, that the thresholds may shake; and break them in pieces on the head of all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: there shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape. 2 Though they dig into Sheol, thence shall my hand take them; and though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down. 3 And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, thence will I command the serpent, and it shall bite them. 4 And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.

5 For the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, is he that toucheth the land and it melteth, and all that dwell therein shall mourn; and it shall rise up wholly like the River, and shall sink again, like the River of Egypt; 6 it is he that buildeth his chambers in the heavens, and hath founded his vault upon the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth; Jehovah is his name.

7 Are ye not as the children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith Jehovah. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir? 8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord Jehovah are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; save that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith Jehovah. 9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, like as grain is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least kernel fall upon the earth. 10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, who say, The evil shall not overtake nor meet us.

11 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old; 12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations that are called by my name, saith Jehovah that doeth this. 13 Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt. 14 And I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. 15 And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them, saith Jehovah thy God.
