旧约 - 耶利米书(Jeremiah)第49章

Concerning the Ammonites: This is what the LORD says: "Has Israel no sons? Has she no heirs? Why then has Molech taken possession of Gad? Why do his people live in its towns?
But the days are coming," declares the LORD, "when I will sound the battle cry against Rabbah of the Ammonites; it will become a mound of ruins, and its surrounding villages will be set on fire. Then Israel will drive out those who drove her out," says the LORD.
"Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai is destroyed! Cry out, O inhabitants of Rabbah! Put on sackcloth and mourn; rush here and there inside the walls, for Molech will go into exile, together with his priests and officials.
Why do you boast of your valleys, boast of your valleys so fruitful? O unfaithful daughter, you trust in your riches and say, 'Who will attack me?'
I will bring terror on you from all those around you," declares the Lord, the LORD Almighty. "Every one of you will be driven away, and no one will gather the fugitives.
"Yet afterward, I will restore the fortunes of the Ammonites," declares the LORD.
Concerning Edom: This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Is there no longer wisdom in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom decayed?
Turn and flee, hide in deep caves, you who live in Dedan, for I will bring disaster on Esau at the time I punish him.
If grape pickers came to you, would they not leave a few grapes? If thieves came during the night, would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
But I will strip Esau bare; I will uncover his hiding places, so that he cannot conceal himself. His children, relatives and neighbors will perish, and he will be no more.
Leave your orphans; I will protect their lives. Your widows too can trust in me."
This is what the LORD says: "If those who do not deserve to drink the cup must drink it, why should you go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, but must drink it.
I swear by myself," declares the LORD, "that Bozrah will become a ruin and an object of horror, of reproach and of cursing; and all its towns will be in ruins forever."
I have heard a message from the LORD: An envoy was sent to the nations to say, "Assemble yourselves to attack it! Rise up for battle!"
"Now I will make you small among the nations, despised among men.
The terror you inspire and the pride of your heart have deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rocks, who occupy the heights of the hill. Though you build your nest as high as the eagle's, from there I will bring you down," declares the LORD.
"Edom will become an object of horror; all who pass by will be appalled and will scoff because of all its wounds.
As Sodom and Gomorrah were overthrown, along with their neighboring towns," says the LORD, "so no one will live there; no man will dwell in it.
"Like a lion coming up from Jordan's thickets to a rich pastureland, I will chase Edom from its land in an instant. Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this? Who is like me and who can challenge me? And what shepherd can stand against me?"
Therefore, hear what the LORD has planned against Edom, what he has purposed against those who live in Teman: The young of the flock will be dragged away; he will completely destroy their pasture because of them.
At the sound of their fall the earth will tremble; their cry will resound to the Red Sea.
Look! An eagle will soar and swoop down, spreading its wings over Bozrah. In that day the hearts of Edom's warriors will be like the heart of a woman in labor.
Concerning Damascus: "Hamath and Arpad are dismayed, for they have heard bad news. They are disheartened, troubled like the restless sea.
Damascus has become feeble, she has turned to flee and panic has gripped her; anguish and pain have seized her, pain like that of a woman in labor.
Why has the city of renown not been abandoned, the town in which I delight?
Surely, her young men will fall in the streets; all her soldiers will be silenced in that day," declares the LORD Almighty.
"I will set fire to the walls of Damascus; it will consume the fortresses of Ben-Hadad."
Concerning Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon attacked: This is what the LORD says: "Arise, and attack Kedar and destroy the people of the East.
Their tents and their flocks will be taken; their shelters will be carried off with all their goods and camels. Men will shout to them, 'Terror on every side!'
"Flee quickly away! Stay in deep caves, you who live in Hazor," declares the LORD. "Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has plotted against you; he has devised a plan against you.
"Arise and attack a nation at ease, which lives in confidence," declares the LORD, "a nation that has neither gates nor bars; its people live alone.
Their camels will become plunder, and their large herds will be booty. I will scatter to the winds those who are in distant places and will bring disaster on them from every side," declares the LORD.
"Hazor will become a haunt of jackals, a desolate place forever. No one will live there; no man will dwell in it."
This is the word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, early in the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah:
This is what the LORD Almighty says: "See, I will break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might.
I will bring against Elam the four winds from the four quarters of the heavens; I will scatter them to the four winds, and there will not be a nation where Elam's exiles do not go.
I will shatter Elam before their foes, before those who seek their lives; I will bring disaster upon them, even my fierce anger," declares the LORD. "I will pursue them with the sword until I have made an end of them.
I will set my throne in Elam and destroy her king and officials," declares the LORD.
"Yet I will restore the fortunes of Elam in days to come," declares the LORD.
耶利米书第四十九章   第 49 章 

  耶 49:1> 亚扪人受审判是由于什么原因? 

  49:1 亚扪人是罗得与小女儿乱伦后所生的后裔(与摩押族相似,请参创 19:30-38 ),他们受审判是因占据了神的子民迦得支派的土地,并且拜祭偶像摩洛,将儿女献为燔祭。 

  耶 49:7> 以东人不念兄弟之情,只顾自己的利益。我是否也会将眼前的利益置于人伦亲情之上? 

  49:7 以色列人源于雅各,以东人则源于雅各的胞兄以扫,两族又都是源出一个祖宗以撒。但两族之间冲突不断,以东人看见耶路撒冷沦陷就幸灾乐祸(参俄)。提缦是以东北部的一个城镇,以智慧人辈出享负盛名,也是约伯的三个朋友之一以利法的故乡(参伯 2:11 )。可惜,提缦的智慧也不能救以东脱离神的震怒。 

  耶 49:8> 与其逃避神的刑罚,不如在审判来临之前先寻求神的救恩…… 

  49:8 底但是个繁华的城市,不少商队都来这里投宿歇脚。神吩咐城中的居民逃到山洞里(深密处),以免遭灾灭绝。提缦和底但位于以东的两端,可见神是多么彻底地毁灭了这个国家。波斯拉( 49:13 )是以东北方的一个小镇。 

  耶 49:16> 为什么有些自身条件不错的人,反而会失败? 

  49:16 以东坐落在坚固的岩石城堡之中,即今日约旦南部的彼特拉一带。由于地势险要,所以以东人据守坚城,自以为牢不可破。结果,以东亡于骄傲自大。骄傲会毁灭一个人,也会毁灭一个国家,因为骄傲令人误以为不用神的帮助,可以完全靠自己。就连事奉神和服事别人也会令人骄傲。数算你的日子,尽心服事神,并求主光照及除去你隐而未现的骄傲之心。 

  耶 49:23-26> 这里的大马士革是── 

  49:23-26 大马士革是以色列北部亚兰的首都,该城曾先后遭亚述及巴比伦两国入侵攻毁。尼布甲尼撒王曾于公元前 605 年攻陷该城(参摩 1:4-5 ),但该城是在哪场战事中灭亡则很难断定。有一点却是可以肯定的,就是神毫不留情地毁灭了亚兰。 

  耶 49:28> 基达和夏琐位于哪儿? 

  49:28 基达和夏琐是生活在以色列东部和亚兰南部之间沙漠地带的两个游牧民族。公元前 599 年遭尼布甲尼撒所灭。 

  耶 49:34> 以拦受罚后与这一切都在神掌握之中── 

  49:34 以拦位于巴比伦之东,于公元前 597 年遭尼布甲尼撒王攻打,其后渐渐成为波斯帝国的核心(参但 8:2 ),后来成为大利乌王的御居所在地。 

  耶 49:38> 宝座是指── 

  49:38 宝座象征神的审判和主权,祂从那里除灭以拦,祂是万王之王,超乎以拦诸王。──《灵修版圣经注释》
