¹ 耶和华的话又临到我说：

² 人子啊，要为推罗作起哀歌，

³ 说：你居住海口，是众民的商埠；你的交易通到许多的海岛。主耶和华如此说：推罗啊，你曾说：我是全然美丽的。

⁴ 你的境界在海中，造你的使你全然美丽。

⁵ 他们用示尼珥的松树做你的一切板，用利巴嫩的香柏树做桅杆，

⁶ 用巴珊的橡树做你的桨，用象牙镶嵌基提海岛的黄杨木为坐板（或译：舱板）。

⁷ 你的篷帆是用埃及绣花细麻布做的，可以做你的大旗；你的凉棚是用以利沙岛的蓝色、紫色布做的。

⁸ 西顿和亚发的居民作你荡桨的。推罗啊，你中间的智慧人作掌舵的。

⁹ 迦巴勒的老者和聪明人都在你中间作补缝的；一切泛海的船只和水手都在你中间经营交易的事。

¹⁰ 波斯人、路德人、弗人在你军营中作战士；他们在你中间悬挂盾牌和头盔，彰显你的尊荣。

¹¹ 亚发人和你的军队都在你四围的墙上，你的望楼也有勇士；他们悬挂盾牌，成全你的美丽。

¹² 他施人因你多有各类的财物，就作你的客商，拿银、铁、锡、铅兑换你的货物。

¹³ 雅完人、土巴人、米设人都与你交易；他们用人口和铜器兑换你的货物。

¹⁴ 陀迦玛族用马和战马并骡子兑换你的货物。

¹⁵ 底但人与你交易，许多海岛作你的码头；他们拿象牙、乌木与你兑换（或译：进贡）。

¹⁶ 亚兰人因你的工作很多，就作你的客商；他们用绿宝石、紫色布绣货、细麻布、珊瑚、红宝石兑换你的货物。

¹⁷ 犹大和以色列地的人都与你交易；他们用米匿的麦子、饼、蜜、油、乳香兑换你的货物。

²³ 哈兰人、干尼人、伊甸人、示巴的商人，和亚述人、基抹人与你交易。

²⁴ 这些商人以美好的货物包在绣花蓝色包袱内，又有华丽的衣服装在香柏木的箱子里，用绳捆着与你交易。

²⁵ 他施的船只接连成帮为你运货，你便在海中丰富极其荣华。

²⁶ 荡桨的已经把你荡到大水之处，东风在海中将你打破。

²⁷ 你的资财、物件、货物、水手、掌舵的、补缝的、经营交易的，并你中间的战士和人民，在你破坏的日子必都沉在海中。

²⁸ 你掌舵的呼号之声一发，郊野都必震动。

²⁹ 凡荡桨的和水手，并一切泛海掌舵的，都必下船登岸。

³⁰ 他们必为你放声痛哭，把尘土撒在头上，在灰中打滚；

³¹ 又为你使头上光秃，用麻布束腰，号啕痛哭，苦苦悲哀。

³² 他们哀号的时候，为你作起哀歌哀哭，说：有何城如推罗？有何城如他在海中成为寂寞的呢？

³³ 你由海上运出货物，就使许多国民充足；你以许多资财、货物使地上的君王丰富。

³⁴ 你在深水中被海浪打破的时候，你的货物和你中间的一切人民，就都沉下去了。

³⁵ 海岛的居民为你惊奇；他们的君王都甚恐慌，面带愁容。

³⁶ 各国民中的客商都向你发嘶声；你令人惊恐，不再存留於世，直到永远。

¹ The Word of Yahweh that came to Joel, the son of Pethuel.

² Hear this, you elders, And listen, all you inhabitants of the land. Has this ever happened in your days, or in the days of your fathers?

³ Tell your children about it, and have your children Tell their children, and their children, another generation.

⁴ What the swarming locust has left, the great locust has eaten. What the great locust has left, the grasshopper has eaten. What the grasshopper has left, the caterpillar has eaten.

⁵ Wake up, you drunkards, and weep! Wail, all you drinkers of wine, because of the sweet wine; for it is cut off from your mouth.

⁶ For a nation has come up on my land, strong, and without number. His teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he has the fangs of a lioness.

⁷ He has laid my vine waste, and stripped my fig tree. He has stripped its bark, and thrown it away. Its branches are made white.

⁸ Mourn like a virgin dressed in sackcloth for the husband of her youth!

⁹ The meal offering and the drink offering are cut off from Yahweh's house. The priests, Yahweh's ministers, mourn.

¹⁰ The field is laid waste. The land mourns, for the grain is destroyed, The new wine has dried up, and the oil languishes.

¹¹ Be confounded, you farmers! Wail, you vineyard keepers; for the wheat and for the barley; for the harvest of the field has perished.

¹² The vine has dried up, and the fig tree withered; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all of the trees of the field are withered; for joy has withered away from the sons of men.

¹³ Put on sackcloth and mourn, you priests! Wail, you ministers of the altar. Come, lie all night in sackcloth, you ministers of my God, for the meal offering and the drink offering are withheld from your God's house.

¹⁴ Sanctify a fast. Call a solemn assembly. Gather the elders, and all the inhabitants of the land, to the house of Yahweh, your God, and cry to Yahweh.

¹⁵ Alas for the day! For the day of Yahweh is at hand, and it will come as destruction from the Almighty.

¹⁶ Isn't the food cut off before our eyes; joy and gladness from the house of our God?

¹⁷ The seeds rot under their clods. The granaries are laid desolate. The barns are broken down, for the grain has withered.

¹⁸ How the animals groan! The herds of livestock are perplexed, because they have no pasture. Yes, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.

¹⁹ Yahweh, I cry to you, For the fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame has burned all the trees of the field.

²⁰ Yes, the animals of the field pant to you, for the water brooks have dried up, And the fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
