But listen to what the LORD has to say, all you people of Judah who are living in the land of Egypt. The LORD says,‘ I hereby swear by my own great name that none of the people of Judah who are living anywhere in Egypt will ever again invoke my name in their oaths! Never again will any of them use it in an oath saying,“ As surely as the Lord GOD lives….”

所以你们住在埃及地的一切犹大人当听耶和华的话。耶和华说：我指着我的大名起誓，在埃及全地，我的名不再被犹大一个人的口称呼说：‘我指着主永生的耶和华起誓。’

所有住埃及地的犹大人哪，当听耶和华的话。耶和华说：看哪，我指着我至大的名起誓，在埃及全地，我的名必不再被犹大任何人的口呼喊：‘我指着主—永生的耶和华起誓。’

所有住埃及地的犹大人哪，当听耶和华的话。耶和华说：看哪，我指着我至大的名起誓，在埃及全地，我的名必不再被犹大任何人的口呼喊：‘我指着主—永生的耶和华起誓。’

住在埃及的犹大人啊，你们都要听耶和华的话。耶和华说，‘看啊，我以自己伟大的名起誓，再没有一个住在埃及的犹大人会凭永活的主耶和华起誓。

但所有住在埃及地的犹大人哪，你们要听耶和华的话！耶和华说：‘看哪！我指着我伟大的名起誓：在埃及全地每一个犹大人的口中，再不会呼唤我的名，说：我指着永活的主耶和华起誓。

所以你們住在埃及地的一切猶大人當聽耶和華的話。耶和華說：我指着我的大名起誓，在埃及全地，我的名不再被猶大一個人的口稱呼說：『我指着主－永生的耶和華起誓。』

所有住埃及地的猶大人哪，當聽耶和華的話。耶和華說：看哪，我指着我至大的名起誓，在埃及全地，我的名必不再被猶大任何人的口呼喊：『我指着主－永生的耶和華起誓。』

住在埃及的猶大人啊，你們都要聽耶和華的話。耶和華說，『看啊，我以自己偉大的名起誓，再沒有一個住在埃及的猶大人會憑永活的主耶和華起誓。

但所有住在埃及地的猶大人哪，你們要聽耶和華的話！耶和華說：‘看哪！我指著我偉大的名起誓：在埃及全地每一個猶大人的口中，再不會呼喚我的名，說：我指著永活的主耶和華起誓。

But hear the word of the Lord, all you Jews living in Egypt:‘ I swear by my great name,’ says the Lord,‘ that no one from Judah living anywhere in Egypt will ever again invoke my name or swear,“ As surely as the Sovereign Lord lives.”

But listen to the Lord’ s message. Listen, all you Jews living in Egypt.‘ I make a promise by my own great name,’ says the Lord.‘ Here is what I promise.“ No one from Judah who lives anywhere in Egypt will ever again pray in my name. None of them will ever make this promise. They will never say,‘ You can be sure that the Lord and King is alive.’ ”

Therefore hear the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, says the Lord, that my name shall no more be invoked by the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying,‘ As the Lord God lives.’

“ But listen to this message from the Lord, all you Judeans now living in Egypt:‘ I have sworn by my great name,’ says the Lord,‘ that my name will no longer be spoken by any of the Judeans in the land of Egypt. None of you may invoke my name or use this oath:“ As surely as the Sovereign Lord lives.”

“ Therefore, hear the word of the LORD, all you Judeans who live in the land of Egypt:‘ I have sworn by my great name, says the LORD, that my name will never again be invoked by anyone of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying,“ As the Lord GOD lives.”

In return, hear the word of the Lord, all Judah who are living in the land of Egypt:‘ Behold, I have sworn by My great name,’ says the Lord,‘ that My name shall never be invoked again by the mouth of anyone of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying,“ As the Lord God lives.”

Therefore hear the word of the Lord, all Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt:‘ Behold, I have sworn by My great name,’ says the Lord,‘ that My name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying,“ The Lord GOD lives.”

Therefore hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith Jehovah, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, As the Lord Jehovah liveth.

“ Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, all you Judeans who live in the land of Egypt:‘ I have sworn by My great name, says Yahweh, that My name will never again be invoked by anyone of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying,“ As the Lord God lives.”

Therefore hear ye the word of the LORD, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the LORD, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord GOD liveth.

“ Therefore hear Yahweh’s word, all Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt:‘ Behold, I have sworn by my great name,’ says Yahweh,‘ that my name will no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying,“ As the Lord Yahweh lives.”

God says this to the evildoer:“ How can you declare my commands, and talk about my covenant?

and said,“‘ I solemnly swear by my own name,’ decrees the LORD,‘ that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son,

“‘ As for you, O house of Israel, this is what the sovereign LORD says: Each of you go and serve your idols, if you will not listen to me. But my holy name will not be profaned again by your sacrifices and your idols.

Now when God made his promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself,

The sovereign LORD confirms this oath by his very own life. The LORD, the God who commands armies, is speaking:“ I despise Jacob’s arrogance; I hate their fortresses. I will hand over to their enemies the city of Samaria and everything in it.”

You must be truthful, honest and upright when you take an oath saying,‘ As surely as the LORD lives!’ If you do, the nations will pray to be as blessed by him as you are and will make him the object of their boasting.”

These people make promises in the name of the LORD. But the fact is, what they swear to is really a lie.”

Listen to this, O family of Jacob, you who are called by the name‘ Israel,’ and are descended from Judah, who take oaths in the name of the LORD, and invoke the God of Israel– but not in an honest and just manner.Indeed, they live in the holy city; they trust in the God of Israel, whose name is the LORD who commands armies.

The LORD swears an oath by his right hand, by his strong arm:“ I will never again give your grain to your enemies as food, and foreigners will not drink your wine, which you worked hard to produce.

For I raise up my hand to heaven, and say,‘ As surely as I live forever,I will sharpen my lightning- like sword, and my hand will grasp hold of the weapon of judgment; I will execute vengeance on my foes, and repay those who hate me!I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword will devour flesh– the blood of the slaughtered and captured, the chief of the enemy’s leaders!’”

I the King, whose name is the LORD who rules over all, swear this: I swear as surely as I live that a conqueror is coming. He will be as imposing as Mount Tabor is among the mountains, as Mount Carmel is against the backdrop of the sea.

I will not break my covenant or go back on what I promised.

The LORD confirms this oath by the arrogance of Jacob:“ I swear I will never forget all you have done!

But truly, as I live, all the earth will be filled with the glory of the LORD.For all the people have seen my glory and my signs that I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and yet have tempted me now these ten times, and have not obeyed me,they will by no means see the land that I swore to their fathers, nor will any of them who despised me see it.

“ I will attack Judah and all who live in Jerusalem. I will remove from this place every trace of Baal worship, as well as the very memory of the pagan priests.I will remove those who worship the stars in the sky from their rooftops, those who swear allegiance to the LORD while taking oaths in the name of their‘ king,’

And to whom did he swear they would never enter into his rest, except those who were disobedient?

so that we who have found refuge in him may find strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us through two unchangeable things, since it is impossible for God to lie.

You steal. You murder. You commit adultery. You lie when you swear on oath. You sacrifice to the god Baal. You pay allegiance to other gods whom you have not previously known.

Say to them,‘ As I live, says the LORD, I will surely do to you just what you have spoken in my hearing.

But, if you do not obey these commands, I solemnly swear that this palace will become a pile of rubble. I, the LORD, affirm it!”

When their close relatives, the ones who will burn the corpses, pick up their bodies to remove the bones from the house, they will say to anyone who is in the inner rooms of the house,“ Is anyone else with you?” He will respond,“ Be quiet! Don’t invoke the LORD’s name!”
