9:1 Hear, O Israel! You are about to cross over the Jordan this day in order to enter in and dispossess nations greater and mightier than you, cities that are big and fortified up to heaven,
以色列阿，你当听！你今日要过约但河，进去赶出比你大、比你强的国民，得着宽大坚固、高得顶天的城邑。
9:2 A people great and tall, the children of the Anakim, whom you know about and of whom you have heard it said, Who can stand before the children of Anak?
9:3 Know therefore today that Jehovah your God is the One crossing over before you as a consuming fire; it is He who will destroy them, and it is He who will subdue them before you, so that you may dispossess them and destroy them quickly, as Jehovah has said to you.
9:4 Do not say in your heart when Jehovah your God drives them out from before you, Because of my righteousness, Jehovah has brought me in to possess this land. Rather, it is because of the wickedness of these nations that Jehovah is about to dispossess them from before you.
9:5 It is not because of your righteousness nor because of the uprightness of your heart that you are entering in to possess their land, but Jehovah your God is about to dispossess them from before you because of the wickedness of these nations and so that Jehovah may establish the word that He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
9:6 Know therefore that it is not because of your righteousness that Jehovah your God is giving you this good land to possess, for you are a stiff-necked people.
所以你当知道，耶和华你神将这美地赐你为业，并不是因你的义；你本是硬着颈项的百姓。
9:7 Remember; do not forget that you made Jehovah your God furious in the wilderness; from the day that you came forth from the land of Egypt up until you came to this place, you have been rebellious against Jehovah.
9:8 And especially at Horeb you made Jehovah furious, and Jehovah was angry enough with you to destroy you.
你们在何烈山又惹耶和华发怒；祂恼怒你们，要灭绝你们。
9:9 When I went up to the mountain to receive the tablets of stone, the Tablets of the Covenant which Jehovah made with you, I remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights; I did not eat food nor drink water.
9:10 And Jehovah gave me the two tablets of stone, written with the finger of God; and on them was what was according to all the words which Jehovah had spoken with you on the mountain from the midst of the fire on the day of the assembly.
9:11 And at the end of forty days and forty nights, Jehovah gave me the two tablets of stone, the Tablets of the Covenant.
过了四十昼四十夜，耶和华把那两块石版，就是约版，交给我。
9:12 Then Jehovah said to me, Arise, go down quickly from here, for your people, whom you have brought out of Egypt, have spoiled themselves; they have turned aside quickly from the way that I commanded them; they have made for themselves a molten image.
9:13 Then Jehovah spoke to me, saying, I have seen this people, and indeed they are a stiff-necked people.
耶和华又对我说，我看这百姓真是硬着颈项的百姓。
9:14 Let Me alone that I may destroy them and blot their name out from under heaven, and I will make of you a nation mightier and more numerous than they.
你且由着我，我要灭绝他们，将他们的名从天下涂抹，使你成为比他们更强、人数更多的国。
9:15 So I turned and came down from the mountain, and the mountain was burning with fire, and the two Tablets of the Covenant were in my two hands.
于是我转身下山，山被火烧着，两块约版在我两手之中。
9:16 And I saw that you had indeed sinned against Jehovah your God; you had made for yourselves a molten calf; you had turned aside quickly from the way that Jehovah had commanded you.
我看见你们真的得罪了耶和华你们的神，为自己铸了一只牛犊，很快的偏离了耶和华所吩咐你们行的道路，
9:17 And I took hold of the two tablets and cast them out of my two hands and shattered them before your eyes.
我就握着那两块版，从我两手中扔出去，在你们眼前摔碎了。
9:18 Then I threw myself down before Jehovah as at the beginning, forty days and forty nights; I did not eat food nor drink water, because of all your sin which you had sinned by doing that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah so as to anger Him.
9:19 For I was afraid of the anger and the burning wrath with which Jehovah was angry enough against you to destroy you. But Jehovah listened to me in that instance as well.
我因耶和华向你们大发烈怒，要灭绝你们，就甚害怕；但那次耶和华又应允了我。
9:20 And Jehovah was very angry with Aaron, enough to destroy him. But I prayed also for Aaron at that time.
耶和华也向亚伦甚是发怒，要灭绝他；那时我也为亚伦祷告。
9:21 Then I took your sin that you had made, the calf, and I burned it with fire and crushed it, grinding it thoroughly until it was as fine as dust; and I cast the dust of it into the brook that came down from the mountain.
9:22 And at Taberah, at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah, you made Jehovah furious.
你们在他备拉、玛撒、基博罗哈他瓦，又惹耶和华发怒。
9:23 And when Jehovah sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you, you rebelled at the word of Jehovah your God and did not believe Him and did not listen to His voice.
9:24 You have been rebellious against Jehovah since the day I came to know you.
自从我认识你们的那日起，你们常常悖逆耶和华。
9:25 So I threw myself down before Jehovah for the forty days and the forty nights; I threw myself down thus, for Jehovah had said He would destroy you.
我因耶和华说要灭绝你们，就在耶和华面前俯伏，共俯伏了四十昼四十夜。
9:26 And I prayed to Jehovah and said, O Lord Jehovah, do not destroy Your people and Your inheritance, whom You have ransomed with Your greatness, whom You have brought out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
9:27 Remember Your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; do not look at the stubbornness of this people and at their wickedness and at their sin;
求你记念你的仆人亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各，不要看这百姓的顽梗、邪恶、罪过，
9:28 Lest the inhabitants of the land from which You have brought us out say, Because Jehovah was not able to bring them into the land which He promised them and because He hated them, He has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.
