我也任他們遵行那無益的律例，隨從那不能使人存活的規條。

我也任他们遵行不美的律例，谨守不能使人活着的恶规。

我也任他们遵行那无益的律例，随从那不能使人存活的规条。

我也任他们遵行那无益的律例，随从那不能使人存活的规条。

所以，我任由他们效法无用的律例，遵守无法使人活着的规条，

因此，我也把不好的律例和不能借以存活的典章赐给他们；

我也任他們遵行不美的律例，謹守不能使人活着的惡規。

我也任他們遵行那無益的律例，隨從那不能使人存活的規條。

所以，我任由他們效法無用的律例，遵守無法使人活著的規條，

因此，我也把不好的律例和不能藉以存活的典章賜給他們；

因此我也索性給他們不好的律例，給他們不能使人活着的典章；

故我聽其從不善之典章、不能保生之律例、

彼從不善之例、失保生之法、我聽其然、

緣此、我聽其從不善之律例、守不能用以保生之法度、

So I gave them other statutes that were not good and laws through which they could not live;

So I let them follow other rules. Those other rules were not good. I let them have laws they could not live by.

Moreover, I gave them statutes that were not good and rules by which they could not have life,

I gave them over to worthless decrees and regulations that would not lead to life.

I also gave them statutes that were not good and ordinances they could not live by.

I also gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances by which they could not live;

“ Therefore I also gave them up to statutes that were not good, and judgments by which they could not live;

Moreover also I gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances wherein they should not live;

I also gave them statutes that were not good and ordinances they could not live by.

Wherefore I gave them also statutes[ that were] not good, and judgments whereby they should not live;

I also gave them decrees which were not good and regulations by which they could not live.

Moreover also I gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances in which they should not live.

我就任憑他們心裏頑梗，隨自己的計謀而行。

「你們，以色列家啊，主耶和華如此說：你們若不聽從我，從今以後就讓各人去事奉他的偶像吧，只是不可再以你們的供物和偶像褻瀆我的聖名。

我也必選擇苦待他們，使他們所懼怕的臨到他們；因為我呼喚，無人回應；我說話，他們不聽從；反倒做我眼中看為惡的事，選擇我所不喜悅的事。」

這不法的人來，是靠撒但的運作，行各樣的異能、神蹟和一切虛假的奇事，並且在那沉淪的人身上行各樣不義的詭詐，因為他們不領受愛真理的心，好讓他們得救。故此，上帝就給他們一個引發錯誤的心，叫他們信從虛謊，

「耶和華必將你和你所立統治你的王，領到你和你列祖不認識的國去；在那裏你必事奉別神，就是木頭和石頭。

因為，他們雖然知道上帝，卻不把他當作上帝榮耀他，也不感謝他。他們的思想變為虛妄，無知的心昏暗了。他們自以為聰明，反成了愚昧，將不能朽壞之上帝的榮耀變為偶像，仿照必朽壞的人、飛禽、走獸、爬蟲的形像。所以，上帝任憑他們隨着心裏的情慾行污穢的事，以致彼此羞辱自己的身體。他們將上帝的真實變為虛謊，去敬拜事奉受造之物，不敬奉那造物的主－主是可稱頌的，直到永遠。阿們！因此，上帝任憑他們放縱可羞恥的情慾。他們的女人把自然的關係變成違反自然的；男人也是如此，放棄了和女人自然的關係，慾火攻心，男的和男的彼此貪戀，行可恥的事，就在自己身上受這逆性行為當得的報應。他們既然故意不認識上帝，上帝就任憑他們存扭曲的心，做那些不該做的事，

先知若被騙說了一句預言，是我－耶和華騙了那先知，我要伸手攻擊他，把他從我百姓以色列中除滅。他們必擔當自己的罪孽。先知的罪孽和求問之人的罪孽都一樣，使以色列家不再走迷離開我，也不再因各樣的罪過玷污自己，卻要作我的子民，我也作他們的上帝。這是主耶和華說的。」

他們使所有頭生的經火，我就任憑他們在這供物上玷污自己；我令他們驚恐，他們就知道我是耶和華。

耶和華必將你們分散在萬民中；在耶和華領你們到的列國中，你們剩下的人丁稀少。在那裏，你們必事奉人手所造的神明，它們是木頭，是石頭，不能看，不能聽，不能吃，不能聞。
