| 1你們要在熙雍吹起號角，在我的聖山上吹起號筒！叫大地所有的居民戰慄害怕，因為上主的日子來了，且已來近了。 | 1Blow ye the trumpet in Sion, sound an alarm in my holy mountain, let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: because the day of the Lord cometh, because it is nigh at hand, |
| 2那是一個陰霾昏暗的日子，是一個濃雲漆黑的日子！一個龐大強盛的民族猶如曙光一樣，散布在各山上；像這樣的民族，是亙古以來從未有過，此後歷盡萬世萬代，也不會再有。 | 2A day of darkness, and of gloominess, a day of clouds and whirlwinds: a numerous and strong people as the morning spread upon the mountains: the like to it hath not been from the beginning, nor shall be after it even to the years of generation and generation. |
| 3在這民族的前面，有吞滅的烈火，後面，有燃燒的火焰；這民族未來以前，大地有如伊甸樂園，既來以後，卻成了荒涼的曠野；什麼也沒有留下。 | 3Before the face thereof a devouring fire, and behind it a burning flame: the land is like a garden of pleasure before it, and behind it a desolate wilderness, neither is there any one that can escape it. |
| 4牠們的形狀有如馬的形狀，他們奔馳有如戰馬， | 4The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses, and they shall run like horsemen. |
| 5牠們的跳躍，發出有如戰車越過山巔的轔轔聲，發出有如烈火焚燒稻草的爆裂聲，活像一支嚴陣以待的強大軍旅。 | 5They shall leap like the noise of chariots upon the tops of mountains, like the noise of a flame of fire devouring the stubble, as a strong people prepared to battle. |
| 6萬民一見，為之惶恐，人人臉面頓時失色。 | 6At their presence the people shall be in grievous pains: all faces shall be made like a kettle. |
| 7牠們疾進有如勇士，攀登城牆有如戰士，各走自己的路線，從不混亂自己的行列。 | 7They shall run like valiant men: like men of war they shall scale the wall: the men shall march every one on his way, and they shall not turn aside from their ranks. |
| 8牠們各不相擠，各循自己的路線進行；即使衝鋒陷陣，仍不散亂。 | 8No one shall press upon his brother: they shall walk every one in his path: yea, and they shall fall through the windows, and shall take no harm. |
| 9牠們進攻城邑，奔上城牆，攀登屋頂，闖進窗戶，有如盜賊一般。 | 9They shall enter into the city: they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up the houses, they shall come in at the windows as a thief. |
| 10在牠們面前，大地為之震盪，諸天為之動搖，日月為之昏暗，星辰為之失光。 | 10At their presence the earth hath trembled, the heavens are moved: the sun and moon are darkened, and the stars have withdrawn their shining. |
| 11上主在他的軍旅前發出了自己的聲音，他的隊伍極其龐大，執行他命令的，又是強而有力的：上主的日子實在偉大，極其可怕：有誰能抵得住？ | 11And the Lord hath uttered his voice before the face of his army: for his armies are exceeding great, for they are strong and execute his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible: and who can stand it? |
| 12至少現在──上主的斷語──你們應全心歸向我，禁食，哭泣，悲哀！ | 12Now therefore saith the Lord: Be converted to me with all your heart, in fasting, and in weeping, and in mourning. |
| 13應撕裂的，是你們的心，而不是你們的衣服；你們應歸向上主你們的天主，因為他寬仁慈悲，遲於發怒，富於慈愛，常懊悔降災。 | 13And rend your hearts, and not your garments, and turn to the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, patient and rich in mercy, and ready to repent of the evil. |
| 14有誰知道，也許他會轉意後悔，在這場災禍後，給你們留下祝福，好使你們能給上主你們的天主獻上素祭和奠祭。 | 14Who knoweth but he will return, and forgive, and leave a blessing behind him, sacrifice and libation to the Lord your God? |
| 15你們要在熙雍吹起號角，制定一個齋期，召開一個盛會。 | 15Blow the trumpet in Sion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly, |
| 16要召集民眾，制定一個集會。召集老人，集合幼童，甚至吃奶的嬰兒；新郎應走出他的洞房，新娘應離開她的閨房。 | 16Gather together the people, sanctify the church, assemble the ancients, gather together the little ones, and them that suck at the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth from his bed, and the bride out of her bride chamber. |
| 17上主的僕人──司祭，應在殿廊與祭台之間痛哭，說：「上主，求你憐恤你的百姓，不要讓你的基業遭受侮辱，使異民取笑他們！為什麼讓人在異民中說：他們的天主在那裏？」 | 17Between the porch and the altar the priests the Lord's ministers shall weep, and shall say: Spare, O Lord, spare thy people: and give not thy inheritance to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them. Why should they say among the nations: Where is their God? |
| 18上主對自己的地域又重加妒愛，憐憫了自己的百姓。 | 18The Lord hath been zealous for his land, and hath spared his people. |
| 19上主答覆他的百姓說：看，我必再賜給你們五穀、酒、油，使你們得享飽飫；不再使你們在異民中遭受羞辱。 | 19And the Lord answered and said to his people: Behold I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and you shall be filled with them: and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations. |
| 20我要使由北方來的大軍，遠離你們；要驅逐牠們到荒涼不毛之地，使牠們的先鋒面向東海，使牠們的殿軍面向西海；牠們的臭氣要上升，牠們的腥臭要上騰。「因為牠們行了大惡。」 | 20And I will remove far off from you the northern enemy: and I will drive him into a land unpassable, and desert, with his face towards the east sea, and his hinder part towards the utmost sea: and his stench shall ascend, and his rottenness shall go up, because he hath done proudly. |
| 21田地，你不要害怕，反要歡愉喜樂，因為上主行了大事。 | 21Fear not, O land, be glad and rejoice: for the Lord hath done great things. |
| 22田間的野獸，你們不要害怕，因為原野的牧場又已發青，樹木已再結實，無花果樹和葡萄樹必再供給出產。 | 22Fear not, ye beasts of the fields: for the beautiful places of the wilderness are sprung, for the tree hath brought forth its fruit, the fig tree, and the vine have yielded their strength. |
| 23熙雍的子女！你們應歡樂，應喜樂於上主你們的天主，因為他按公義，像昔日一樣，賜給了你們時雨，且給你們降下甘霖：秋雨和春雨。 | 23And you, O children of Sion, rejoice, and be joyful in the Lord your God: because he hath given you a teacher of justice, and he will make the early and the latter rain to come down to you as in the beginning. |
| 24禾場必充滿莊稼，榨池必溢出美酒和新油。 | 24And the floors shall be filled with wheat, and the presses shall overflow with wine and oil. |
| 25我必要補償你們，我對你們所派來的大軍：飛蝗、螽斯、蚱蜢和蝻子，連年所吃掉的收成。 | 25And I will restore to you the ears which the locust, and the bruchus, and the mildew, and the palmerworm have eaten; my great host which I sent upon you. |
| 26你們必得飽食，必要頌揚上主你們的天主的名，因為他為你們行了奇妙的事。【我的百姓永不再蒙受羞辱。】 | 26And you shall eat in plenty, and shall be filled: and you shall praise the name of the Lord your God, who hath done wonders with you, and my people shall not be confounded for ever. |
| 27你們將會知道：我是在以色列中間，我是上主你們的天主，此外再沒有別的神；而我的百姓永不再蒙受羞辱。 | 27And you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel: and I am the Lord your God, and there is none besides: and my people shall not be confounded for ever. |
| 28 | 28And it shall come to pass after this, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy: your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions. |
| 29 | 29Moreover upon my servants and handmaids in those days I will pour forth my spirit. |
| 30 | 30And I will shew wonders in heaven; and in earth, blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke. |
| 31 | 31The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood: before the great and dreadful day of the Lord doth come. |
| 32 | 32And it shall come to pass, that every one that shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved: for in mount Sion, and in Jerusalem shall be salvation, as the Lord hath said, and in the residue whom the Lord shall call. |
