2 Yahweh, how long will I cry, and you will not hear? I cry out to you “ Violence!” and will you not save?O Jehovah, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear? I cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save.여호와여, 제가 얼마나 오래 부르짖어야 들으시겠습니까? 제가 "폭력입니다!" 하고 주께 외쳐도 구원하지 않으시렵니까?
3 Why do you show me iniquity, and look at perversity? For destruction and violence are before me. There is strife, and contention rises up.Why dost thou show me iniquity, and look upon perverseness? for destruction and violence are before me; and there is strife, and contention riseth up.어찌하여 저로 죄악을 보게 하시며 패역을 바라보게 하십니까? 파괴와 폭력이 제 앞에 있고 다툼이 일어나며 분쟁이 끊이지 않습니다.
4 Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never prevails; for the wicked surround the righteous; therefore justice comes out perverted.Therefore the law is slacked, and justice doth never go forth; for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore justice goeth forth perverted.그러므로 율법이 마비되고 정의가 결코 나타나지 못합니다. 악인이 의인을 둘러싸니 정의가 왜곡되어 나타날 뿐입니다.
5 “ Look among the nations, watch, and wonder marvelously; for I am working a work in your days which you will not believe though it is told you.Behold ye among the nations, and look, and wonder marvellously; for I am working a work in your days, which ye will not believe though it be told you."너희는 여러 민족을 보아라. 주목하고 크게 놀라라. 내가 너희 시대에 한 일을 행하겠다. 누가 말해 주어도 너희가 믿지 못할 일이다.
6 For, behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation who march through the width of the earth, to possess dwelling places that are not theirs.For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, that march through the breadth of the earth, to possess dwelling-places that are not theirs.보아라, 내가 갈대아 사람을 일으키겠다. 그들은 사납고 성급한 민족이며, 자기 것이 아닌 거처를 차지하려고 온 땅을 누비며 행진한다.
7 They are feared and dreaded. Their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.They are terrible and dreadful; their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves.그들은 두렵고 무서운 자들이다. 그들의 재판과 위엄은 오직 자기 자신에게서 나온다.
8 Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves. Their horsemen press proudly on. Yes, their horsemen come from afar. They fly as an eagle that hurries to devour.Their horses also are swifter than leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves; and their horsemen press proudly on: yea, their horsemen come from far; they fly as an eagle that hasteth to devour.그들의 말은 표범보다 빠르고 저녁 이리보다 사납다. 그들의 기병은 거만하게 내달리며, 멀리서 달려온다. 그들은 먹이를 향해 서두르는 독수리처럼 날아온다.
9 All of them come for violence. Their hordes face forward. They gather prisoners like sand.They come all of them for violence; the set of their faces is forwards; and they gather captives as the sand.그들 모두가 폭력을 휘두르려고 온다. 그들의 무리가 사막을 향해 돌진하며, 모래알처럼 많은 포로를 모은다.
10 Yes, they scoff at kings, and princes are a derision to them. They laugh at every stronghold, for they build up an earthen ramp and take it.Yea, he scoffeth at kings, and princes are a derision unto him; he derideth every stronghold; for he heapeth up dust, and taketh it.참으로 그는 왕들을 비웃고 군주들을 우습게 여긴다. 그는 모든 요새를 조롱하니, 흙으로 토성을 쌓아 그것을 빼앗기 때문이다.
11 Then they sweep by like the wind and go on. They are indeed guilty, whose strength is their god.”Then shall he sweep by as a wind, and shall pass over, and be guilty, even he whose might is his god.그런 다음 그는 바람처럼 휩쓸고 지나간다. 자기 힘을 자기 신으로 삼는 그는 참으로 죄를 지은 자다."
12 Aren’t you from everlasting, Yahweh my God, my Holy One? We will not die. Yahweh, you have appointed them for judgment. You, Rock, have established him to punish.Art not thou from everlasting, O Jehovah my God, my Holy One? we shall not die. O Jehovah, thou hast ordained him for judgment; and thou, O Rock, hast established him for correction.여호와 나의 하나님, 나의 거룩하신 이여, 주께서는 영원 전부터 계신 분이 아니십니까? 우리는 죽지 않을 것입니다. 여호와여, 주께서 그를 심판하도록 세우셨고, 반석이신 주께서 그를 징벌하도록 정하셨습니다.
13 You who have purer eyes than to see evil, and who cannot look on perversity, why do you tolerate those who deal treacherously and keep silent when the wicked swallows up the man who is more righteous than he,Thou that art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and that canst not look on perverseness, wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy peace when the wicked swalloweth up the man that is more righteous than he;주의 눈은 너무 정결하셔서 악을 보지 못하시며 패역을 차마 바라보지 못하시는데, 어찌하여 배신하는 자들을 그냥 두시며, 악인이 자기보다 의로운 사람을 삼킬 때 잠잠히 계십니까?
14 and make men like the fish of the sea, like the creeping things that have no ruler over them?and makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them?어찌하여 사람을 바다의 물고기처럼, 다스릴 자 없는 기는 것들처럼 되게 하십니까?
15 He takes up all of them with the hook. He catches them in his net and gathers them in his dragnet. Therefore he rejoices and is glad.He taketh up all of them with the angle, he catcheth them in his net, and gathereth them in his drag: therefore he rejoiceth and is glad.그가 그 모두를 낚시로 끌어 올리고 그물로 잡으며 투망으로 모읍니다. 그래서 그는 기뻐하고 즐거워합니다.
16 Therefore he sacrifices to his net and burns incense to his dragnet, because by them his life is luxurious and his food is good.Therefore he sacrificeth unto his net, and burneth incense unto his drag; because by them his portion is fat, and his food plenteous.그러므로 그는 자기 그물에 제사를 드리고 자기 투망에 분향합니다. 그것들 덕분에 그의 삶이 풍요롭고 그의 음식이 넉넉하기 때문입니다.
17 Will he therefore continually empty his net, and kill the nations without mercy?Shall he therefore empty his net, and spare not to slay the nations continually?그가 이처럼 자기 그물을 끊임없이 비우며 긍휼 없이 민족들을 죽여도 되겠습니까?
