我就说：“主耶和华啊，求你止息；因为雅各微弱，他怎能站立得住呢？”

我就说：“主耶和华啊，求你止息；因为雅各弱小，他怎能站立得住呢？”

我就说：“主耶和华啊，求你止息；因为雅各弱小，他怎能站立得住呢？”

那时，我说：“主耶和华啊，求你停止吧！雅各那么弱小，他怎么受得了呢？”

因此我对主耶和华说：“求你停止吧！因雅各太弱小，怎能站立得住呢？”

我就說：「主耶和華啊，求你止息；因為雅各微弱，他怎能站立得住呢？」

我就說：「主耶和華啊，求你止息；因為雅各弱小，他怎能站立得住呢？」

我就說：「主耶和華啊，求你止息；因為雅各弱小，他怎能站立得住呢？」

那時，我說：「主耶和華啊，求你停止吧！雅各那麼弱小，他怎麼受得了呢？」

因此我對主耶和華說：“求你停止吧！因雅各太弱小，怎能站立得住呢？”

我就說：『主永恆主啊，請停止哦！雅各怎能站立得住呢？他是這麼微小啊。』

我曰、主耶和華歟、求爾止息、雅各微小、何能卓立乎、

我曰、主耶和華與、祈爾中止、雅各衰微、能久存乎。

我曰、求主天主中止、雅各已衰微、焉能得立、

Then I cried out,“ Sovereign Lord, I beg you, stop! How can Jacob survive? He is so small!”

Then I said,“ O Lord God, please cease! How can Jacob stand? He is so small!”

Then I said,“ O Sovereign Lord, please stop or we will not survive, for Israel is so small.”

Then I said,“ Lord GOD, please stop! How will Jacob survive since he is so small?”

Then I said,“ Lord God, please stop! How can Jacob stand? For he is small.”

Then I said:“ O Lord GOD, cease, I pray! Oh, that Jacob may stand, For he is small!”

Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, cease, I beseech thee: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.

Then I said,“ Lord God, please stop! How will Jacob survive since he is so small?”

Then said I, O Lord GOD, cease, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he[ is] small.

I said,“ Sovereign LORD, stop! How can Jacob survive? He is too weak!”

Then I said,“ Lord Yahweh, stop, I beg you! How could Jacob stand? For he is small.”

God our Savior, make us new again. Stop being unhappy with us.

Very soon I will not be angry with you anymore. I will turn my anger against the Assyrians. I will destroy them.”

From those places the songs of people giving thanks will be heard. The sound of great joy will come from there. I will cause there to be more of my people. There will not be fewer of them. I will bring them honor. People will have respect for them.

Let the priests who serve the Lord weep. Let them cry between the temple porch and the altar. Let them say,“ Lord, spare your people. Don’t let others make fun of them. Don’t let the nations laugh at them. Don’t let them tease your people and say,‘ Where is their God?’ ”

The Lord who rules over all has let some people live through that time of trouble. If he hadn’t, we would have become like Sodom. We would have been like Gomorrah.

The locusts stripped the land clean. Then I cried out,“ Lord and King, forgive Israel! How can Jacob’s people continue? They are such a weak nation!”So the Lord had pity on them.“ I will let them continue for now,” he said.
