弥3:1 我说：“雅各的首领、以色列家的官长啊，你们要听！你们不当知道公平吗？
弥3:1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel; Is it not for you to know judgment?
弥3:2 你们恶善好恶，从人身上剥皮，从人骨头上剔肉。
弥3:2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
弥3:3 吃我民的肉，剥他们的皮，打折他们的骨头，分成块子像要下锅，又像釜中的肉。”
弥3:3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
弥3:4 到了遭灾的时候，这些人必哀求耶和华，他却不应允他们；那时他必照他们所行的恶事，向他们掩面。
弥3:4 Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but he will not hear them: he will even hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.
弥3:5 “论到使我民走差路的先知，他们牙齿有所嚼的，他们就呼喊说：‘平安了！’凡不供给他们吃的，他们就预备攻击他（“预备攻击他”或作“说必遭遇刀兵”）。”耶和华如此说：
弥3:5 Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him.
弥3:6 “你们必遭遇黑夜，以致不见异象；又必遭遇幽暗，以致不能占卜。日头必向你们沉落，白昼变为黑暗；
弥3:6 Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them.
弥3:7 先见必抱愧，占卜的必蒙羞，都必捂着嘴唇，因为 神不应允他们。”
弥3:7 Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yea, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer of God.
弥3:8 至于我，我借耶和华的灵，满有力量、公平、才能，可以向雅各说明他的过犯，向以色列指出他的罪恶。
弥3:8 But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.
弥3:9 雅各家的首领、以色列家的官长啊，当听我的话！你们厌恶公平，在一切事上屈枉正直；
弥3:9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity.
弥3:10 以人血建立锡安，以罪孽建造耶路撒冷。
弥3:10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
弥3:11 首领为贿赂行审判，祭司为雇价施训诲，先知为银钱行占卜。他们却倚赖耶和华说：“耶和华不是在我们中间吗？灾祸必不临到我们！”
弥3:11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us.
弥3:12 所以因你们的缘故，锡安必被耕种像一块田，耶路撒冷必变为乱堆，这殿的山必像丛林的高处。
弥3:12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest.
