And it came to pass； when I heard these words； that I sat down and wept； and mourned certain days； and fasted； and prayed before the God of heaven；
1：5耶和华天上的神，大而可畏的神阿，你向爱你，守你诫命的人守约施慈爱。
And said； I beseech thee； O LORD God of heaven； the great and terrible God； that keepeth covenant and mercy for them that love him and observe his mandments：
1：6愿你睁眼看，侧耳听，你仆人昼夜在你面前，为你众仆人以色列民的祈祷，承认我们以色列人向你所犯的罪。我与我父家都有罪了。
Let thine ear now be attentive； and thine eyes open； that thou mayest hear the prayer of thy servant； which I pray before thee now； day and night； for the children of Israel thy servants； and confess the sins of the children of Israel； which we have sinned against thee： both I and my father's house have sinned。
1：7我们向你所行的甚是邪恶，没有遵守你藉着仆人，摩西所吩咐的诫命，律例，典章。
We have dealt very corruptly against thee； and have not kept the mandments； nor the statutes； nor the judgments； which thou mandedst thy servant Moses。
1：8求你记念所吩咐你仆人摩西的话，说，你们若犯罪，我就把你们分散在万民中。
Remember； I beseech thee； the word that thou mandedst thy servant Moses； saying； If ye transgress； I will scatter you abroad among the nations：
1：9但你们若归向我，谨守遵行我的诫命，你们被赶散的人虽在天涯，我也必从那里将他们招聚回来，带到我所选择立为我名的居所。
But if ye turn unto me； and keep my mandments； and do them； though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven； yet will I gather them from thence； and will bring them unto the place that I have chosen to set my name there。
1：10这都是你的仆人，你的百姓，就是你用大力，和大能的手所救赎的。
Now these are thy servants and thy people； whom thou hast redeemed by thy great power； and by thy strong hand。
1：11主阿，求你侧耳听你仆人的祈祷，和喜爱敬畏你名众仆人的祈祷，使你仆人现今亨通，在王面前蒙恩。我是作王酒政的。
O LORD； I beseech thee； let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant； and to the prayer of thy servants； who desire to fear thy name： and prosper； I pray thee； thy servant this day； and grant him mercy in the sight of this man。 For I was the king's cupbearer。
旧约 尼希米记（Nehemiah） 第 2 章 （ 本篇共有 13 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
2：1亚达薛西王二十年尼散月，在王面前摆酒，我拿起酒来奉给王。我素来在王面前没有愁容。
And it came to pass in the month Nisan； in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king； that wine was before him： and I took up the wine； and gave it unto the king。 Now I had not been beforetime sad in his presence。
2：2王对我说，你既没有病，为什么面带愁容呢。这不是别的，必是你心中愁烦。于是我甚惧怕。
Wherefore the king said unto me； Why is thy countenance sad； seeing thou art not sick？ this is nothing else but sorrow of heart。 Then I was very sore afraid；
2：3我对王说，愿王万岁。我列祖坟墓所在的那城荒凉，城门被火焚烧，我岂能面无愁容吗。
And said unto the king； Let the king live for ever： why should not my countenance be sad； when the city； the place of my fathers' sepulchres； lieth waste； and the gates thereof are consumed with fire？
2：4王问我说，你要求什么。于是我默祷天上的神。
Then the king said unto me； For what dost thou make request？ So I prayed to the God of heaven。
2：5我对王说，仆人若在王眼前蒙恩，王若喜欢，求王差遣我往犹大，到我列祖坟墓所在的那城去，我好重新建造。
And I said unto the king； If it please the king； and if thy servant have found favour in thy sight； that thou wouldest send me unto Judah； unto the city of my fathers' sepulchres； that I may build it。
2：6那时王后坐在王的旁边。王问我说，你去要多少日子。几时回来。我就定了日期。于是王喜欢差遣我去。
And the king said unto me； （the queen also sitting by him；） For how long shall thy journey be？ and when wilt thou return？ So it pleased the king to send me； and I set him a time。
2：7我又对王说，王若喜欢，求王赐我诏书，通知大河西的省长准我经过，直到犹大。
Moreover I said unto the king； If it please the king； let letters be given me to the governors beyond the river； that they may convey me over till I e into Judah；
2：8又赐诏书，通知管理王园林的亚萨，使他给我木料，做属殿营楼之门的横梁和城墙，与我自己房屋使用的。王就允准我，因我神施恩的手帮助我。
And a letter unto Asaph the keeper of the king's forest； that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the palace which appertained to the house； and for the wall of the city； and for the house that I shall enter into。 And the king granted me； according to the good hand of my God upon me。
2：9王派了军长和马兵护送我。我到了河西的省长那里，将王的诏书交给他们。
Then I came to the governors beyond the river； and gave them the king's letters。 Now the king had sent captains of the army and horsemen with me。
2：10和伦人叁巴拉，并为奴的亚扪人多比雅，听见有人来为以色列人求好处，就甚恼怒。
When Sanballat the Horonite； and Tobiah the servant； the Ammonite； heard of it； it grieved them exceedingly that there was e a man to seek the welfare of the children of Israel。
2：11我到了耶路撒冷，在那里住了三日。
So I came to Jerusalem； and was there three days。
2：12我夜间起来，有几个人也一同起来，但神使我心里要为耶路撒冷做什么事，我并没有告诉人。除了我骑的牲口以外，也没有别的牲口在我那里。
And I arose in the night； I and some few men with me； neither told I any man what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem： neither was there any beast with me； save the beast that I rode upon。
2：13当夜我出了谷门，往野狗井去（野狗或作龙），到了粪厂门，察看耶路撒冷的城墙，见城墙拆毁，城门被火焚烧。
And I went out by night by the gate of the valley； even before the dragon well； and to the dung port； and viewed the walls of Jerusalem； which were broken down； and the gates thereof were consumed with fire。
2：14我又往前，到了泉门和王池，但所骑的牲口没有地方过去。
Then I went on to the gate of the fountain； and to the king's pool： but there was no place for the beast that was under me to pass。
2：15于是夜间沿溪而上，察看城墙，又转身进入谷门，就回来了。
Then went I up in the night by the brook； and viewed the wall； and turned back； and entered by the gate of the valley； and so returned。
2：16我往哪里去，我做什么事，官长都不知道。我还没有告诉犹大平民，祭司，贵胄，官长，和其馀做工的人。
And the rulers knew not whither I went； or what I did； neither had I as yet told it to the Jews； nor to the priests； nor to the nobles； nor to the rulers； nor to the rest that did the work。
2：17以后，我对他们说，我们所遭的难，耶路撒冷怎样荒凉，城门被火焚烧，你们都看见了。来吧，我们重建耶路撒冷的城墙，免得再受凌辱。
Then said I unto them； Ye see the distress that we are in； how Jerusalem lieth waste； and the gates thereof are burned with fire： e； and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem； that we be no more a reproach。
2：18我告诉他们我神施恩的手怎样帮助我，并王对我所说的话。他们就说，我们起来建造吧。于是他们奋勇做这善工。
Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me； as also the king's words that he had spoken unto me。 And they said； Let us rise up and build。 So they strengthened their hands for this good work。
2：19但和伦人叁巴拉，并为奴的亚扪人多比雅，和阿拉伯人基善，听见就嗤笑我们，藐视我们，说，你们做什么呢。要背叛王吗。
But when Sanballat the Horonite； and Tobiah the servant； the Ammonite； and Geshem the Arabian；
