“ As for you, son of man, your people are talking together about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses, saying to each other,‘ Come and hear the message that has come from the Lord.’

“ Son of man, your people are talking about you. They are getting together by the walls of their houses and at their doors. They are saying to one another,‘ Come. Listen to the Lord’ s message.’

“ As for you, son of man, your people who talk together about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses, say to one another, each to his brother,‘ Come, and hear what the word is that comes from the Lord.’

“ Son of man, your people talk about you in their houses and whisper about you at the doors. They say to each other,‘ Come on, let’s go hear the prophet tell us what the Lord is saying!’

“ As for you, son of man, your people are talking about you near the city walls and in the doorways of their houses. One person speaks to another, each saying to his brother,‘ Come and hear what the message is that comes from the LORD!’

“ But as for you, son of man, your fellow citizens who talk with one another about you by the walls and in the doorways of the houses, speak one with another, each with his brother, saying,‘ Come now and hear what the message is that comes from the Lord.’

“ As for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking about you beside the walls and in the doors of the houses; and they speak to one another, everyone saying to his brother,‘ Please come and hear what the word is that comes from the Lord.’

And as for thee, son of man, the children of thy people talk of thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from Jehovah.

“ Now, son of man, your people are talking about you near the city walls and in the doorways of their houses. One person speaks to another, each saying to his brother,‘ Come and hear what the message is that comes from the Lord!’

Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD.

“ But as for you, son of man, your people( who are talking about you by the walls and at the doors of the houses) say to one another,‘ Come hear the word that comes from the LORD.’

‘这人民用嘴唇尊敬我，心却远离我；

他们派了自己的门徒和希律党的人一同去问耶稣：“老师，我们知道你为人诚实，照着真理把神的道教导人，不顾忌任何人，因为你不徇情面。请把你的意见告诉我们，纳税给凯撒，可不可以呢？”

主说：“因为这子民只用言语来亲近我，用嘴唇尊崇我，他们的心却远离我。他们对我的敬畏，只是遵从传统的吩咐。

他们天天寻求我，乐意明白我的道路，好像行义的国民，不离弃他们神的公理；他们向我求问公义的判语，又喜欢亲近神。

你们各人对自己的邻舍，对自己的兄弟要这样说：“耶和华回答了什么？耶和华说了什么？”

你们实在自己欺骗自己，因为是你们委派我去见耶和华你们的神，你们说：‘请为我们向耶和华我们的神祷告；无论耶和华我们的神说什么，你都要告诉我们，我们就必照着去作。’

所有的将领，包括加利亚的儿子约哈难和何沙雅的儿子耶撒尼亚，以及全体人民，从最小的到最大的，都上前来，对耶利米先知说：“求你容我们向你恳求，请为我们这余剩的民向耶和华你的神祷告；因为我们从前人数众多，现在剩下的极少，就像你现在亲眼所见的一样。请为我们求耶和华你的神指示我们当走的路和该作的事。”耶利米先知对他们说：“我听见了！我必照着你们的话祷告耶和华你们的神。耶和华回答你们所说的一切话，我必告诉你们，一句也不会向你们隐瞒。”于是他们对耶利米说：“我们若不照着耶和华你的神差遣你到我们这里来所说的一切话去作，愿耶和华作真实和诚信的见证，指控我们。不论是甜是苦，我们都愿听从耶和华我们神的话，因为是我们委派你向他祈求的；我们听从耶和华我们神的话，就必凡事亨通。”

耶和华把他们的阴谋指示我，我就知道了；那时，你把他们所行的给我指明。至于我，我却像一只驯良的羊羔，被牵到屠宰之地；我并不知道他们设计谋害我。他们说：“我们来把这树和果子（“果子”原文作“它的食物”）都毁灭吧，把它从活人之地剪除，使它的名不再被人记念。”

他们说：“来吧！我们来设计对付耶利米；因为祭司的律法、智慧人的谋略、先知的话都不会断绝。来吧！我们用舌头攻击他，不理会他的一切话。”
