ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. 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).

2:1
σαλπίσατε σάλπιγγι ἐν Σιων κηρύξατε ἐν ὄρει ἁγίῳ μου καὶ συγχυθήτωσαν πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν γῆν διότι πάρεστιν ἡμέρα κυρίου ὅτι ἐγγύς
Blow the trumpet in Zion, proclaim on my holy mountain, and let all the inhabitants of the land be thrown into confusion, for the day of the Lord is at hand, for it is near.
你們要在錫安吹角，在我的聖山上宣告，使這地一切的居民都驚惶，因為主的日子已經臨到，就在眼前。
2:2
ἡμέρα σκότους καὶ γνόφου ἡμέρα νεφέλης καὶ ὁμίχλης ὡς ὄρθρος χυθήσεται ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη λαὸς πολὺς καὶ ἰσχυρός ὅμοιος αὐτῷ οὐ γέγονεν ἀπὸ τοῦ αἰῶνος καὶ μετ’ αὐτὸν οὐ προστεθήσεται ἕως ἐτῶν εἰς γενεὰς γενεῶν
A day of darkness and gloom, a day of cloud and mist. Like dawn a people numerous and strong shall be spread over the mountains; there has been none like it from of old, and after it there shall be no other for years, to generations of generations.
那是黑暗幽暗的日子，是密雲陰霾的日子。有一族又多又強，如晨光鋪展在群山之上；這樣的族從亙古以來未曾有過，此後直到萬代，也不再有。
2:3
τὰ ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ πῦρ ἀναλίσκον καὶ τὰ ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ ἀναπτομένη φλόξ ὡς παράδεισος τρυφῆς ἡ γῆ πρὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ ὄπισθεν αὐτοῦ πεδίον ἀφανισμοῦ καὶ ἀνασῳζόμενος οὐκ ἔσται αὐτῷ
Before it a devouring fire, and behind it a blazing flame. The land before its face is like a paradise of delight, and behind it a plain of desolation; and nothing shall escape it.
在牠前面有火燒滅，在牠後面有火焰燃燒。牠面前的地如同歡樂的園子，牠身後卻是荒涼的平原，沒有一樣能從牠逃脫。
2:4
ὡς ὅρασις ἵππων ἡ ὄψις αὐτῶν καὶ ὡς ἱππεῖς οὕτως καταδιώξονται
Their appearance is like the appearance of horses, and like horsemen so shall they pursue.
牠們的樣子如同馬的樣子，牠們追逐如同騎兵。
2:5
ὡς φωνὴ ἁρμάτων ἐπὶ τὰς κορυφὰς τῶν ὀρέων ἐξαλοῦνται καὶ ὡς φωνὴ φλογὸς πυρὸς κατεσθιούσης καλάμην καὶ ὡς λαὸς πολὺς καὶ ἰσχυρὸς παρατασσόμενος εἰς πόλεμον
Like the sound of chariots they shall leap on the mountaintops, and like the sound of a flame of fire devouring stubble, and like a numerous and strong people drawn up for battle.
牠們在山頂上跳躍，聲音如同戰車的聲音，又如火焰吞吃碎稭的聲音，也如強盛的大軍擺陣爭戰。
2:6
ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ συντριβήσονται λαοί πᾶν πρόσωπον ὡς πρόσκαυμα χύτρας
Before its face the peoples shall be crushed; every face is like the scorching of a pot.
在牠面前，萬民都必崩潰；人人的臉都像被火燒焦的鍋面。
2:7
ὡς μαχηταὶ δραμοῦνται καὶ ὡς ἄνδρες πολεμισταὶ ἀναβήσονται ἐπὶ τὰ τείχη καὶ ἕκαστος ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ αὐτοῦ πορεύσεται καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐκκλίνωσιν τὰς τρίβους αὐτῶν
They shall run like warriors, and like men of war they shall climb the walls; each shall go on his own way, and they shall not swerve from their paths.
牠們奔跑如勇士，又像戰士爬上城牆；各人按自己的路前行，決不偏離自己的道。
2:8
καὶ ἕκαστος ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀφέξεται καταβαρυνόμενοι ἐν τοῖς ὅπλοις αὐτῶν πορεύσονται καὶ ἐν τοῖς βέλεσιν αὐτῶν πεσοῦνται καὶ οὐ μὴ συντελεσθῶσιν
And no one shall keep away from his brother; weighed down with their weapons they shall go, and though they fall among their missiles, they shall not be wiped out.
各人不離開自己的弟兄；牠們身負兵器前行，就算倒在箭下，也不至滅絕。
2:9
τῆς πόλεως ἐπιλήμψονται καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν τειχέων δραμοῦνται καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς οἰκίας ἀναβήσονται καὶ διὰ θυρίδων εἰσελεύσονται ὡς κλέπται
They shall seize the city and run upon the walls; they shall climb up on the houses and enter through the windows like thieves.
牠們要奪取城邑，在城牆上奔跑，爬上房屋，像賊一樣從窗戶進去。
2:10
πρὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν συγχυθήσεται ἡ γῆ καὶ σεισθήσεται ὁ οὐρανός ὁ ἥλιος καὶ ἡ σελήνη συσκοτάσουσιν καὶ τὰ ἄστρα δύσουσιν τὸ φέγγος αὐτῶν
Before their face the earth shall be thrown into confusion and the sky shall be shaken; the sun and the moon shall grow dark, and the stars shall withdraw their brightness.
在牠們面前，地必混亂，天必震動；日月昏暗，眾星也收斂光輝。
2:11
καὶ κύριος δώσει φωνὴν αὐτοῦ πρὸ προσώπου δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ ὅτι πολλή ἐστιν σφόδρα ἡ παρεμβολὴ αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἰσχυρὰ ἔργα λόγων αὐτοῦ διότι μεγάλη ἡ ἡμέρα τοῦ κυρίου μεγάλη καὶ ἐπιφανὴς σφόδρα καὶ τίς ἔσται ἱκανὸς αὐτῇ
And the Lord shall utter his voice before his host, for his camp is exceedingly great, for the works of his words are mighty. For the day of the Lord is great, great and exceedingly manifest; and who will be equal to it?
主必在他軍隊前面發出聲音，因為他的營極其浩大，因為成就他話語的作為大有能力。主的日子大而可畏，極其顯赫，誰能當得起呢？
2:12
καὶ νῦν λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν ἐπιστράφητε πρός με ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ ἐν νηστείᾳ καὶ ἐν κλαυθμῷ καὶ ἐν κοπετῷ
And now, says the Lord your God, turn back to me with your whole heart, and with fasting and with weeping and with mourning.
主你們的神如今說：你們要全心歸向我，並要禁食、哭泣、哀慟。
2:13
καὶ διαρρήξατε τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ μὴ τὰ ἱμάτια ὑμῶν καὶ ἐπιστράφητε πρὸς κύριον τὸν θεὸν ὑμῶν ὅτι ἐλεήμων καὶ οἰκτίρμων ἐστίν μακρόθυμος καὶ πολυέλεος καὶ μετανοῶν ἐπὶ ταῖς κακίαις
Tear your hearts and not your garments, and turn back to the Lord your God, for he is merciful and compassionate, patient and abounding in mercy, and one who relents over evils.
你們要撕裂心腸，不要撕裂衣服，並要歸向主你們的神；因為他有憐憫，有慈悲，不輕易發怒，且有豐盛的恩慈，又會為所降的災禍回心轉意。
2:14
τίς οἶδεν εἰ ἐπιστρέψει καὶ μετανοήσει καὶ ὑπολείψεται ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ εὐλογίαν θυσίαν καὶ σπονδὴν κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν
Who knows whether he will turn and relent and leave behind him a blessing, a sacrifice and drink offering for the Lord our God?
誰知道他會不會回轉、改變心意，在他身後留下福分，就是獻給主我們神的祭物和奠祭呢？
2:15
σαλπίσατε σάλπιγγι ἐν Σιων ἁγιάσατε νηστείαν κηρύξατε θεραπείαν
Blow the trumpet in Zion, consecrate a fast, proclaim a solemn service.
你們要在錫安吹角，分別出禁食的日子，宣告侍奉之禮。
2:16
συναγάγετε λαόν ἁγιάσατε ἐκκλησίαν ἐκλέξασθε πρεσβυτέρους συναγάγετε νήπια θηλάζοντα μαστούς ἐξελθάτω νυμφίος ἐκ τοῦ κοιτῶνος αὐτοῦ καὶ νύμφη ἐκ τοῦ παστοῦ αὐτῆς
Gather the people, consecrate an assembly, choose out elders, gather the infants who nurse at the breast. Let the bridegroom come out of his chamber and the bride out of her bridal room.
要招聚百姓，分別出聖會，選出長老，聚集吃奶的嬰孩。讓新郎出自己的洞房，新婦出自己的內室。
2:17
ἀνὰ μέσον τῆς κρηπῖδος τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου κλαύσονται οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ λειτουργοῦντες κυρίῳ καὶ ἐροῦσιν φεῖσαι κύριε τοῦ λαοῦ σου καὶ μὴ δῷς τὴν κληρονομίαν σου εἰς ὄνειδος τοῦ κατάρξαι αὐτῶν ἔθνη ὅπως μὴ εἴπωσιν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ποῦ ἐστιν ὁ θεὸς αὐτῶν
Between the base of the altar the priests who minister to the Lord shall weep and say: Spare your people, Lord, and do not give your inheritance over to reproach, for nations to rule over them, so that they may not say among the nations, Where is their God?
事奉主的祭司要在祭壇的台基之間哀哭，說：「主啊，求你顧惜你的子民，不要把你的產業交給人凌辱，任憑列國轄制他們，免得人在列國中說：『他們的神在哪裡呢？』」
2:18
καὶ ἐζήλωσεν κύριος τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐφείσατο τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ
And the Lord was zealous for his land, and he spared his people.
於是主為自己的地發熱心，顧惜自己的子民。
2:19
καὶ ἀπεκρίθη κύριος καὶ εἶπεν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐξαποστέλλω ὑμῖν τὸν σῖτον καὶ τὸν οἶνον καὶ τὸ ἔλαιον καὶ ἐμπλησθήσεσθε αὐτῶν καὶ οὐ δώσω ὑμᾶς οὐκέτι εἰς ὀνειδισμὸν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι
And the Lord answered and said to his people: Behold, I am sending you the grain and the wine and the oil, and you shall be filled with them; and I will no longer give you over to reproach among the nations.
主回答他的子民說：「看哪，我要賜給你們五穀、酒和油，你們必得飽足；我必不再使你們在列國中受凌辱。
2:20
καὶ τὸν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ ἐκδιώξω ἀφ’ ὑμῶν καὶ ἐξώσω αὐτὸν εἰς γῆν ἄνυδρον καὶ ἀφανιῶ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν πρώτην καὶ τὰ ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν ἐσχάτην καὶ ἀναβήσεται ἡ σαπρία αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀναβήσεται ὁ βρόμος αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἐμεγάλυνεν τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ
And I will drive the one from the north far from you and thrust him into a waterless land; I will blot out his front into the first sea and his rear into the last sea. His rottenness shall rise up and his stench shall rise up, because he magnified his own deeds.
我必把那從北方來的趕離你們，把牠驅逐到無水之地；我要使牠的前面沒入前面的海，使牠的後面沒入末後的海。牠的腐爛必上騰，牠的臭氣必上騰，因為牠妄自誇大自己的作為。
2:21
θάρσει γῆ χαῖρε καὶ εὐφραίνου ὅτι ἐμεγάλυνεν κύριος τοῦ ποιῆσαι
Take courage, O land; rejoice and be glad, for the Lord has done great things.
地啊，放膽吧！要歡喜快樂，因為主行了大事。
2:22
θαρσεῖτε κτήνη τοῦ πεδίου ὅτι βεβλάστηκεν πεδία τῆς ἐρήμου ὅτι ξύλον ἤνεγκεν τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῦ ἄμπελος καὶ συκῆ ἔδωκαν τὴν ἰσχὺν αὐτῶν
Take courage, beasts of the plain, for the plains of the wilderness have sprouted, for the tree has borne its fruit; the vine and the fig tree have given their strength.
田野的走獸啊，你們要放膽，因為曠野的草場已經發青，樹木已經結出果子，葡萄樹和無花果樹也獻出了牠們的力量。
2:23
καὶ τὰ τέκνα Σιων χαίρετε καὶ εὐφραίνεσθε ἐπὶ τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ ὑμῶν διότι ἔδωκεν ὑμῖν τὰ βρώματα εἰς δικαιοσύνην καὶ βρέξει ὑμῖν ὑετὸν πρόιμον καὶ ὄψιμον καθὼς ἔμπροσθεν
And you children of Zion, rejoice and be glad in the Lord your God, because he has given you food for righteousness, and he will send you rain, the early and the late, as before.
錫安的兒女啊，你們要因主你們的神歡喜快樂，因為他已賜給你們食物，使你們得著公義；他也必為你們降下秋雨和春雨，像從前一樣。
2:24
καὶ πλησθήσονται αἱ ἅλωνες σίτου καὶ ὑπερεκχυθήσονται αἱ ληνοὶ οἴνου καὶ ἐλαίου
And the threshing floors shall be filled with grain, and the presses shall overflow with wine and oil.
禾場必滿了五穀，酒醡必有酒和油溢出。
2:25
καὶ ἀνταποδώσω ὑμῖν ἀντὶ τῶν ἐτῶν ὧν κατέφαγεν ἡ ἀκρὶς καὶ ὁ βροῦχος καὶ ἡ ἐρυσίβη καὶ ἡ κάμπη ἡ δύναμίς μου ἡ μεγάλη ἣν ἐξαπέστειλα εἰς ὑμᾶς
And I will repay you for the years which the locust and the young locust and the blight and the caterpillar devoured, my great force that I sent against you.
我必補還你們那些年間所失去的，就是蝗蟲、蝻子、鏽病和青蟲所吃盡的；牠們是我差到你們那裡的大軍。
2:26
καὶ φάγεσθε ἐσθίοντες καὶ ἐμπλησθήσεσθε καὶ αἰνέσετε τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῶν ἃ ἐποίησεν μεθ’ ὑμῶν εἰς θαυμάσια καὶ οὐ μὴ καταισχυνθῇ ὁ λαός μου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
And you shall eat your fill and be satisfied, and you shall praise the name of the Lord your God for the wonders he has done among you; and my people shall never be put to shame.
你們必吃得飽足，並要讚美主你們神的名，因為他向你們行了奇妙的事；我的子民必永不蒙羞。
2:27
καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε ὅτι ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ Ισραηλ ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἔτι πλὴν ἐμοῦ καὶ οὐ μὴ καταισχυνθῶσιν οὐκέτι πᾶς ὁ λαός μου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
And you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and there is no other besides me; and all my people shall never again be put to shame.
你們必知道我在以色列中間，我是主你們的神，除我以外再沒有別的；我的子民必永不再蒙羞。
