The burden concerning Damascus: See, Damascus — turned from being a city, / It will become a heap of ruin.
关于大马色的默示：看哪，大马色已被除灭，不再为城，必变作乱堆。

The cities of Aroer will be forsaken; / They will be for flocks / That lie down with no one to frighten them.
亚罗珥的城邑必被撇弃；必成为牧放羊群之处，羊群在那里躺卧，无人惊吓。

And fortified cities will cease to be in Ephraim, / As well as the kingdom in Damascus; / And the remnant of Syria / Will be like the glory of the children of Israel, / Declares Jehovah of hosts.
以法莲不再有坚固城，大马色不再有国权；亚兰所剩下的，必像以色列人的荣耀消灭一样，这是万军之耶和华说的。

In that day the glory of Jacob will fade, / And the fat of his flesh will become lean.
到那日，雅各的荣耀必衰落，他肥胖的身体必消瘦。

And it will be as when the reaper gathers the standing grain, / And his arms reap the ears; / And it will be as when one gleans the ears / In the valley of Rephaim.
就像收割的人收敛禾稼，用手割取穗子；又像人在利乏音谷拾取遗落的穗子。

Yet gleanings will be left in it, / Like at the shaking of an olive tree — / Two or three fruit at the very top, / Four or five in the boughs of the fruiting tree — / Declares Jehovah the God of Israel.
其间虽有剩下的，却好像橄榄树被打过，在尽上的枝梢上只剩两三个果子，在多果树的旁枝上只剩四五个果子；这是耶和华以色列的神说的。

In that day man will look to his Maker, / And his eyes will behold the Holy One of Israel.
当那日，人必仰望造他的主，他的眼目必重看以色列的圣者。

And he will not look to the altars, the works of his hands; / And what his fingers have made he will not regard, / That is, the Asherahs and the images to the sun.
他必不仰望祭坛，就是自己手所筑的；也不重看自己指头所作的，就是木像和日像。

In that day his cities of protection will be / Like abandoned places of the forest and like the mountaintop / Which was abandoned before the children of Israel; / And there will be desolation.
在那日，他的护卫城必像树林中所撇弃的地方，又像从前在以色列人面前被撇弃的山顶；这样，地就荒凉了。

For you have forgotten the God of your salvation, / And the Rock of your stronghold you have not remembered. / Therefore you plant plants of delight / And set them with plant cuttings to a strange god.
因你忘记了救你的神，不记念护卫你的磐石；所以你栽上可悦的树秧子，插上献给别神的栽子。

On the day that you plant them you fence them in carefully, / And in the morning you bring your seed to blossom; / But the harvest is a heap on a day of sickness / And incurable pain.
你在栽种的日子，仔细圈上篱笆，又在早晨使你所种的开花；但在忧患、伤痛无法医治的日子，所收割的不过一小堆。

Woe! The roar of many peoples, / Who roar like the roaring of the seas; / The din of nations, / Who crash like the crashing of mighty waters!
祸哉！多民哄嚷，哄嚷犹如海浪匉訇；列邦喧哗，喧哗犹如猛水滔滔；

The nations crash like the crashing of many waters. / But He will rebuke them; / And they will flee far away, / And will be chased like mountain chaff before the wind / And like a whirlwind of dust before storm wind.
列邦喧哗，犹如多水滔滔。但神斥责他们，他们就远远逃避，又被追赶，如同山上的风前糠，如同暴风前的旋风土。

At evening time, indeed, there is calamity; / Before the morning they are no more. / This is the portion of those who plunder us, / And the allotment of those who take us as spoil.
看哪，在晚上有灾难；未到早晨，他们就没有了。这是掳掠我们之人所得的分，是抢夺我们之人的定命。
