See , the lord is making the earth waste and unpeopled , he is turning it upside down , and sending the people in all directions .

看哪、耶和华使地空虚、变为荒凉。又翻转大地、将居民分散。

No foot of man will go through it and no foot of beast , and it will be unpeopled for forty years .

人的脚、兽的蹄、都不经过、四十年之久并无人居住。

And the land of egypt will be an unpeopled waste ; and they will be certain that I am the lord : because he has said , the nile is mine , and I made it .

埃及地必荒废凄凉，他们就知道我是耶和华。因为法老说，这河是我的，是我所造的，

Before them fire sends destruction , and after them flame is burning : the land is like the garden of eden before them , and after them an unpeopled waste ; truly , nothing has been kept safe from them .

他们前面如火烧灭，后面如火焰烧尽。未到以前，地如伊甸园，过去以后，成了荒凉的旷野。没有一样能躲避他们的。

Because of the wrath of the lord no one will be living in it , and it will be quite unpeopled : everyone who goes by babylon will be overcome with wonder , and make sounds of fear at all her punishments .

因耶和华的忿怒，必无人居住，要全然荒凉。凡经过巴比伦的要受惊骇，又因她所遭的灾殃嗤笑。
