5:1
[cbgb] 你们当在耶路撒冷的街上跑来跑去，在宽阔处寻找，看看有一人行公义求诚实没有。若有，我就赦免这城。 >
[niv] "Go up and down the streets of Jerusalem, look around and consider, search through her squares. If you can find but one person who deals honestly and seeks the truth, I will forgive this city.
[asv] Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that doeth justly, that seeketh truth; and I will pardon her.
[jnd] Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broadways thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be that doeth justice, that seeketh fidelity; and I will pardon it.
[kjv] Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.
[nwb] Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in its broad places, if ye can find a man, if there is that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.
[rsv] Run to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, look and take note! Search her squares to see if you can find a man, one who does justice and seeks truth; that I may pardon her.
[web] . Run you back and forth through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places of it, if you can find a man, if there are any who does justly, who seeks truth; and I will pardon her.
[ylt] Go to and fro in streets of Jerusalem, And see, I pray you, and know, And seek in her broad places, if ye find a man, If there be one doing judgment, seeking stedfastness -- Then am I propitious to her.
[bbe] Go quickly through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and get knowledge, and make a search in her wide places if there is a man, if there is one in her who is upright, who keeps faith; and she will have my forgiveness.
5:2
[cbgb] 其中的人虽然指着永生的耶和华起誓，所起的誓实在是假的。 < | >
[niv] Although they say, `As surely as the LORD lives,' still they are swearing falsely."
[asv] And though they say, As Jehovah liveth; surely they swear falsely.
[jnd] And if they say, Jehovah liveth! surely they swear falsely.
[kjv] And though they say, The LORD liveth; surely they swear falsely.
[nwb] And though they say, The LORD liveth; surely they swear falsely.
[rsv] Though they say, "As the LORD lives," yet they swear falsely.
[web] Though they say, As Yahweh lives; surely they swear falsely.
[ylt] And if they say, `Jehovah liveth,' Surely to a falsehood they swear.
[bbe] And though they say, By the living Lord; truly their oaths are false.
5:3
[cbgb] 耶和华阿，你的眼目不是看顾诚实麽？你击打他们，他们却不伤恸。你毁灭他们，他们仍不受惩治。他们使脸刚硬过于磐石，不肯回头。 < | >
[niv] O LORD, do not your eyes look for truth? You struck them, but they felt no pain; you crushed them, but they refused correction. They made their faces harder than stone and refused to repent.
[asv] O Jehovah, do not thine eyes look upon truth? thou hast stricken them, but they were not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.
[jnd] Jehovah, are not thine eyes upon fidelity? Thou hast smitten them, but they are not sore; thou hast consumed them, they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.
[kjv] O LORD, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.
[nwb] O LORD, not thy eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.
[rsv] O LORD, do not thy eyes look for truth? Thou hast smitten them, but they felt no anguish; thou hast consumed them, but they refused to take correction. They have made their faces harder than rock; they have refused to repent.
[web] O Yahweh, don't your eyes look on truth? you have stricken them, but they were not grieved; you have consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.
[ylt] Jehovah, Thine eyes, are they not on stedfastness? Thou hast smitten them, and they have not grieved, Thou hast consumed them, They have refused to receive instruction, They made their faces harder than a rock, They have refused to turn back.
[bbe] O Lord, do not your eyes see good faith? you have given them punishment, but they were not troubled; you have sent destruction on them, but they did not take your teaching to heart: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they would not come back.
5:4
[cbgb] 我说，这些人实在是贫穷的，是愚昧的，因为不晓得耶和华的作为和他们　神的法则。 < | >
[niv] I thought, "These are only the poor; they are foolish, for they do not know the way of the LORD, the requirements of their God.
[asv] Then I said, Surely these are poor; they are foolish; for they know not the way of Jehovah, nor the law of their God:
[jnd] And I said, Surely these are the wretched ones, they are foolish; for they know not the way of Jehovah, the judgment of their God.
[kjv] Therefore I said, Surely these are poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of the LORD, nor the judgment of their God.
[nwb] Therefore I said, Surely these poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of the LORD, the judgment of their God.
[rsv] Then I said, "These are only the poor, they have no sense; for they do not know the way of the LORD, the law of their God.
[web] Then I said, Surely these are poor; they are foolish; for they don't know the way of Yahweh, nor the law of their God:
[ylt] And I -- I said, `Surely these poor, They have been foolish, For they have not known the way of Jehovah, The judgment of their God.
[bbe] Then I said, But these are the poor: they are foolish, for they have no knowledge of the way of the Lord or of the behaviour desired by their God.
5:5
[cbgb] 我要去见尊大的人，对他们说话，因为他们晓得耶和华的作为和他们　神的法则。哪知，这些人齐心将轭折断，挣开绳索。 < | >
[niv] So I will go to the leaders and speak to them; surely they know the way of the LORD, the requirements of their God." But with one accord they too had broken off the yoke and torn off the bonds.
[asv] I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they know the way of Jehovah, and the law of their God. But these with one accord have broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.
[jnd] I will go unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they know the way of Jehovah, the judgment of their God; but these have altogether broken the yoke, have burst the bonds.
[kjv] I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the LORD, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.

[web] I will get me to the great men, and will speak to them; for they know the way of Yahweh, and the law of their God. But these with one accord have broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.
[ylt] I get me to the great, and I speak with them, For they have known the way of Jehovah, The judgment of their God.' Surely they together have broken the yoke, They have drawn away the bands.
[bbe] I will go to the great men and have talk with them; for they have knowledge of the way of the Lord and of the behaviour desired by their God. But as for these, their one purpose is a broken yoke and burst bands.
5:6
[cbgb] 因此，林中的狮子必害死他们。晚上（或作野地）的豺狼必灭绝他们。豹子要在城外窥伺他们。凡出城的必被撕碎。因为他们的罪过极多，背道的事也加增了。 < | >
[niv] Therefore a lion from the forest will attack them, a wolf from the desert will ravage them, a leopard will lie in wait near their towns to tear to pieces any who venture out, for their rebellion is great and their backslidings many.
[asv] Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, a wolf of the evenings shall destroy them, a leopard shall watch against their cities; every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces; because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased.
[jnd] Therefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, a wolf of the evenings shall waste them; the leopard lurketh against their cities, every one that goeth out thence is torn in pieces: for their transgressions are multiplied, their backslidings are increased.

[web] Therefore a lion out of the forest shall kill them, a wolf of the evenings shall destroy them, a leopard shall watch against their cities; everyone who goes out there shall be torn in pieces; because their transgressions are many, their backsliding is increased.
[ylt] Therefore smitten them hath a lion out of the forest, A wolf of the deserts doth spoil them, A leopard is watching over their cities, Every one who is going out of them is torn, For many have been their transgressions, Mighty have been their backslidings.
[bbe] And so a lion from the woods will put them to death, a wolf of the waste land will make them waste, a leopard will keep watch on their towns, and everyone who goes out from them will be food for the beasts; because of the great number of their sins and the increase of their wrongdoing.
5:7
[cbgb] 我怎能赦免你呢？你的儿女离弃我，又指着那不是　神的起誓。我使他们饱足，他们就行奸淫，成群地聚集在娼妓家里。 < | >
[niv] "Why should I forgive you? Your children have forsaken me and sworn by gods that are not gods. I supplied all their needs, yet they committed adultery and thronged to the houses of prostitutes.
[asv] How can I pardon thee? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they committed adultery, and assembled themselves in troops at the harlots' houses.

[web] How can I pardon you? your children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they committed adultery, and assembled themselves in troops at the prostitutes' houses.
[ylt] For this I am not propitious to thee, Thy sons have forsaken Me, And are satisfied by that which is not god, I satisfy them, and they commit adultery, And at the house of a harlot They gather themselves together.
[bbe] How is it possible for you to have my forgiveness for this? your children have given me up, taking their oaths by those who are no gods: when I had given them food in full measure, they were false to their wives, taking their pleasure in the houses of loose women.
5:8
[cbgb] 他们像喂饱的马到处乱跑，各向他邻舍的妻发嘶声。 < | >
[niv] They are well-fed, lusty stallions, each neighing for another man's wife.
[asv] They were as fed horses roaming at large; every one neighed after his neighbor's wife.

5:9
[cbgb] 耶和华说，我岂不因这些事讨罪呢？岂不报复这样的国民呢？ < | >
[niv] Should I not punish them for this?" declares the LORD. "Should I not avenge myself on such a nation as this?
[asv] Shall I not visit for these things? saith Jehovah; and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
[jnd] Shall I not visit for these things? saith Jehovah, and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

[bbe] Am I not to give punishment for these things? says the Lord: will not my soul take payment from such a nation as this?

[ylt] Go ye up on her walls, and destroy, And a completion make not, Turn aside her branches, for they not Jehovah's,
[bbe] Go up against her vines and make waste; let the destruction be complete: take away her branches, for they are not the Lord's.

[cbgb] 耶和华说，你们怎麽不惧怕我呢？我以永远的定例，用沙为海的界限，水不得越过。因此，你们在我面前还不战兢麽？波浪虽然翻腾，却不能逾越。虽然遂訇，却不能过去。 < | >
[niv] Should you not fear me?" declares the LORD. "Should you not tremble in my presence? I made the sand a boundary for the sea, an everlasting barrier it cannot cross. The waves may roll, but they cannot prevail; they may roar, but they cannot cross it.
[asv] Fear ye not me? saith Jehovah: will ye not tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand for the bound of the sea, by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it? and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it.

[rsv] Do you not fear me? says the LORD; Do you not tremble before me? I placed the sand as the bound for the sea, a perpetual barrier which it cannot pass; though the waves toss, they cannot prevail, though they roar, they cannot pass over it.
[web] Don't you fear me? says Yahweh: won't you tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand for the bound of the sea, by a perpetual decree, that it can't pass it? and though the waves of it toss themselves, yet they can't prevail; though they roar, yet they can't pass over it.
[ylt] Me do ye not fear, an affirmation of Jehovah? From My presence are ye not pained? Who hath made sand the border of the sea, A limit age-during, and it passeth not over it, They shake themselves, and they are not able, Yea, sounded have its billows, and they pass not over.
[bbe] Have you no fear of me? says the Lord; will you not be shaking with fear before me, who have put the sand as a limit for the sea, by an eternal order, so that it may not go past it? and though it is ever in motion, it is not able to have its way; though the sound of its waves is loud, they are not able to go past it.
