繁體中文
Original em inglês
La 5:1-22.
EPIPHONEMA, OR A CLOSING RECAPITULATION OF THE CALAMITIES TREATED IN THE PREVIOUS ELEGIES.
1.
(Ps 89:50, 51).
2
Sem título
繁體中文
2. 我們的產業——即"你的產業"
(詩 79:1)。
指古時你所賜給我們的那地。
Original em inglês
2. Our inheritance--"Thine inheritance"
(Ps 79:1).
The land given of old to us by Thy gift.
3
Sem título
繁體中文
3. 孤兒——我們全地都滿了孤兒［加爾文（Calvin）］。或作"我們成了無父之人"，因你這位"父"
(耶 3:19)
離棄了我們［格羅提烏（Grotius）］。
Original em inglês
3. fatherless--Our whole land is full of orphans [CALVIN]. Or, "we are fatherless," being abandoned by Thee our "Father"
(Jer 3:19),
[GROTIUS].
4
Sem título
繁體中文
4. 水……是要付錢買的——耶路撒冷傾覆之後，猶太人被迫為自己的水窖之水向仇敵付錢；更可能是指他們在巴比倫寄居時的情形：他們要為使用河流與泉水繳納稅銀。故此"我們的"意指我們所需要的水——最基本的日用必需。
我們的柴——在猶大各人都可以不花分文取得柴；在巴比倫，"我們的柴"——我們所需要的柴——卻必須付錢購買。
Original em inglês
4. water for money--The Jews were compelled to pay the enemy for the water of their own cisterns after the overthrow of Jerusalem; or rather, it refers to their sojourn in Babylon; they had to pay tax for access to the rivers and fountains. Thus, "our" means the water which we need, the commonest necessary of life.
our wood--In Judea each one could get wood without pay; in Babylon, "our wood," the wood we need, must be paid for.

Sem título
繁體中文
5. 直譯為"我們的頸項上我們被追逼"，即人踐踏我們的頸項
(詩 66:12； 賽 51:23；
比較
書 10:24)。
這是極度的壓迫。仇敵不僅傷及猶太人的面、背與肋，連他們的頸項也被踐踏。這是公義的報應，因為他們向神的軛素來硬著頸項
(代下 30:8， 邊註； 尼 9:29； 賽 48:4)。
Original em inglês
5. Literally, "On our necks we are persecuted"; that is, Men tread on our necks
(Ps 66:12; Isa 51:23;
compare
Jos 10:24).
The extremest oppression. The foe not merely galled the Jews face, back, and sides, but their neck. A just retribution, as they had been stiff in neck against the yoke of God
(2Ch 30:8,
Margin;
Ne 9:29; Isa 48:4).
6
Sem título
繁體中文
6. 給……伸手給——為臣服的表示（參
耶 50:15
註解）。
給……埃及人——在約西亞死後
(代下 36:3, 4)。
亞述人——即佔據亞述帝國故地的迦勒底人。參
耶 2:18。
得以飽足——
(申 28:48)。
Original em inglês
6. given . . . hand to--in token of submission (see on
Jer 50:15).
to . . . Egyptians--at the death of Josiah
(2Ch 36:3, 4).
Assyrians--that is, the Chaldeans who occupied the empire which Assyria had held. So
Jer 2:18.
to be satisfied with bread--
(De 28:48).
7
Sem título

7.
(耶 31:29)。
擔當他們的罪孽——即擔當其刑罰。我們列祖歷代累積的罪，連同我們自己的罪，都歸到我們身上。他們說這話，作為求神憐憫他們的理由（參
結 18:2
等）。
Original em inglês
7.
(Jer 31:29).
borne their iniquities--that is, the punishment of them. The accumulated sins of our fathers from age to age, as well as our own, are visited on us. They say this as a plea why God should pity them (compare
Eze 18:2,
&c.).
8
Sem título
繁體中文
8. 奴僕……轄管……我們——在迦勒底總督之下的臣僕轄管猶太人
(尼 5:15)。
以色列從前是"祭司的國度"
(出 19:6)，
如今卻成了像迦南一樣"奴僕的奴僕"，正如咒詛所言
(創 9:25)。
迦勒底人是含的後裔
(創 9:26)，
原定規要作閃的"僕人"。如今因猶太人的罪，兩者的地位顛倒了過來。
Original em inglês
8. Servants . . . ruled . . . us--Servants under the Chaldean governors ruled the Jews
(Ne 5:15).
Israel, once a "kingdom of priests"
(Ex 19:6),
is become like Canaan, "a servant of servants," according to the curse
(Ge 9:25).
The Chaldeans were designed to be "servants" of Shem, being descended from Ham
(Ge 9:26).
Now through the Jews' sin, their positions are reversed.

9. 我們……冒著性命的危險……得糧——指迦勒底人攻取耶路撒冷後留在城中的我們。
因……曠野的……劍——因為穿過曠野往埃及去得"糧"的猶太人（參
哀 5:6），
隨時可能遭受曠野中阿拉伯盜賊的襲擊。
Original em inglês
9. We gat our bread with . . . peril--that is, those of us left in the city after its capture by the Chaldeans.
because of . . . sword of . . . wilderness--because of the liability to attack by the robber Arabs of the wilderness, through which the Jews had to pass to get "bread" from Egypt (compare
La 5:6).
10
Sem título
繁體中文
10. 如同火勢過旺燒焦了烤箱一般，我們的皮膚也因飢荒的熱氣（邊註正確地譯作"風暴"，如炎熱的西蒙風）而被烤焦。飢餓使毛孔乾涸，皮膚變得像被日頭烤焦一般
(伯 30:30； 詩 119:83)。
Original em inglês
10. As an oven is scorched with too much fire, so our skin with the hot blast of famine (Margin, rightly, "storms," like the hot simoom). Hunger dries up the pores so that the skin becomes like as if it were scorched by the sun
(Job 30:30; Ps 119:83).
11
Sem título
繁體中文
11. 照此公義的報應，巴比倫本身至終也必如此。耶路撒冷在最末了的復興之前，必最後一次受這些災禍
(亞 14:2)。
Original em inglês
11. So in just retribution Babylon itself should fare in the end. Jerusalem shall for the last time suffer these woes before her final restoration
(Zec 14:2).
12
Sem título
繁體中文
12. 懸在……手上——這是迦勒底人所發明的殘忍之舉。格羅提烏（Grotius）譯作"首領被仇敵的手吊起來"；懸掛本是常用的處死方式
(創 40:19)。
長老——指官員
(哀 4:16)。
Original em inglês
12. hanged . . . by their hand--a piece of wanton cruelty invented by the Chaldeans. GROTIUS translates, "Princes were hung by the hand of the enemy"; hanging was a usual mode of execution
(Ge 40:19).

16. 冠冕——指我們一切的榮耀：國度與祭司職分
(伯 19:9； 詩 89:39, 44)。
Original em inglês
16. The crown--all our glory, the kingdom and the priesthood
(Job 19:9; Ps 89:39, 44).

(哀 1:22；2:11)。

(La 1:22; 2:11).
18
Sem título

18. 野狗——牠們出沒於荒涼之地，在那裡可以自由無畏地遊蕩。
Original em inglês
18. foxes--They frequent desolate places where they can freely and fearlessly roam.
19
Sem título
繁體中文
19.
(詩 102:12)。
神掌管人間事的永恆不變——無論他似乎如何暫時容讓百姓受欺壓——正是他們盼望復興的根據。
Original em inglês
19.
(Ps 102:12).
The perpetuity of God's rule over human affairs, however He may seem to let His people be oppressed for a time, is their ground of hope of restoration.

繁體中文
20. 直到永遠——即"如此長久之時"。
Original em inglês
20. for ever--that is, for "so long a time."

21.
(詩 80:3； 耶 31:18)。
"求你使我們與你復和，我們便得以歸回先前的地位"［格羅提烏（Grotius）］。耶利米所論的不是屬靈的歸正，而是那外在的轉向——藉此神收納人進入他為父的恩寵，並以賜下興旺顯明之［加爾文（Calvin）］。然而，因以色列是教會的預表，屬地的好處也預表屬靈的福分；故此罪人也可以用這禱告求神使他歸正。
Original em inglês
21.
(Ps 80:3; Jer 31:18).
"Restore us to favor with Thee, and so we shall be restored to our old position" [GROTIUS]. Jeremiah is not speaking of spiritual conversion, but of that outward turning whereby God receives men into His fatherly favor, manifested in bestowing prosperity [CALVIN]. Still, as Israel is a type of the Church, temporal goods typify spiritual blessings; and so the sinner may use this prayer for God to convert him.
22
Sem título
繁體中文
22. 更當譯作"除非你全然棄絕我們，向我們大發烈怒"，即"除非你無可挽回——這是不可能的——求你聽我們的禱告"［加爾文（Calvin）］。或如邊註所言："難道你要全然棄絕我們嗎？"云云——斷不至如此。猶太人在本書，以及以賽亞書和瑪拉基書中，為避免以哀傷之句作結的不祥之兆，便重複緊接最末一句之前的那一節［加爾文（Calvin）］。

Original em inglês
22. Rather, "Unless haply Thou hast utterly rejected us, and art beyond measure wroth against us," that is, Unless Thou art implacable, which is impossible, hear our prayer [CALVIN]. Or, as Margin, "For wouldest Thou utterly reject us?" &c.--No; that cannot be. The Jews, in this book, and in Isaiah and Malachi, to avoid the ill-omen of a mournful closing sentence, repeat the verse immediately preceding the last [CALVIN].
