Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).

1:1

λόγος κυρίου ὃς ἐγενήθη πρὸς Ιωηλ τὸν τοῦ Βαθουηλ

The word of the Lord that came to Joel son of Bathuel.

主的話臨到巴土業的兒子約珥。

1:2

ἀκούσατε δὴ ταῦτα οἱ πρεσβύτεροι καὶ ἐνωτίσασθε πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν γῆν εἰ γέγονεν τοιαῦτα ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ὑμῶν ἢ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν

Hear this, you elders, and give ear, all you who inhabit the land: has such a thing happened in your days, or in the days of your fathers?

長老們哪，你們要聽這些事；一切住在這地上的人哪，都要側耳而聽。在你們的日子，或在你們列祖的日子，可曾有過這樣的事嗎？

1:3

ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν τοῖς τέκνοις ὑμῶν διηγήσασθε καὶ τὰ τέκνα ὑμῶν τοῖς τέκνοις αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν εἰς γενεὰν ἑτέραν

Tell your children about them, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation.

你們要把這些事講給你們的兒女，你們的兒女要講給他們的兒女，他們的兒女要講給另一代。

1:4

τὰ κατάλοιπα τῆς κάμπης κατέφαγεν ἡ ἀκρίς καὶ τὰ κατάλοιπα τῆς ἀκρίδος κατέφαγεν ὁ βροῦχος καὶ τὰ κατάλοιπα τοῦ βρούχου κατέφαγεν ἡ ἐρυσίβη

What the caterpillar left, the locust devoured; what the locust left, the young locust devoured; and what the young locust left, the blight devoured.

青蟲所剩下的，蝗蟲吃盡了；蝗蟲所剩下的，蝻子吃盡了；蝻子所剩下的，鏽病吃盡了。

1:5

ἐκνήψατε οἱ μεθύοντες ἐξ οἴνου αὐτῶν καὶ κλαύσατε θρηνήσατε πάντες οἱ πίνοντες οἶνον εἰς μέθην ὅτι ἐξῆρται ἐκ στόματος ὑμῶν εὐφροσύνη καὶ χαρά

Sober up, you who are drunk from their wine, and weep; wail, all you who drink wine to drunkenness, for gladness and joy have been taken away from your mouth.

醉酒的人哪，你們要從自己的酒中醒過來，要哀哭；一切喝酒至醉的人哪，你們要哀號，因為歡喜快樂已從你們口中被奪去了。

1:6

ὅτι ἔθνος ἀνέβη ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν μου ἰσχυρὸν καὶ ἀναρίθμητον οἱ ὀδόντες αὐτοῦ ὀδόντες λέοντος καὶ αἱ μύλαι αὐτοῦ σκύμνου

For a nation has come up against my land, strong and beyond number; its teeth are the teeth of a lion, and its molars those of a lion's cub.

因為有一國上來攻擊我的地，強盛且不可勝數；牠的牙是獅子的牙，牠的臼齒是幼獅的臼齒。

1:7

ἔθετο τὴν ἄμπελόν μου εἰς ἀφανισμὸν καὶ τὰς συκᾶς μου εἰς συγκλασμόν ἐρευνῶν ἐξηρεύνησεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἔρριψεν ἐλεύκανεν κλήματα αὐτῆς

It has made my vine a desolation and my fig trees a splintering; it searched her out thoroughly and cast her away, and made her branches white.

牠使我的葡萄樹荒廢，使我的無花果樹折斷；牠仔細搜尋，又把它拋棄，使它的枝條發白。

1:8

θρήνησον πρός με ὑπὲρ νύμφην περιεζωσμένην σάκκον ἐπὶ τὸν ἄνδρα αὐτῆς τὸν παρθενικόν

Lament to me more than a bride girded with sackcloth over the husband of her virginity.

你要向我哀號，勝過那腰束麻布、為自己童貞時的丈夫哀哭的新婦。

1:9

ἐξῆρται θυσία καὶ σπονδὴ ἐξ οἴκου κυρίου πενθεῖτε οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ λειτουργοῦντες θυσιαστηρίῳ

Sacrifice and drink offering have been taken away from the house of the Lord. Mourn, you priests who minister at the altar.

祭物和奠祭已從主的殿中被奪去。事奉祭壇的祭司啊，你們要哀慟。
