The whole land will look like a grainfield after the harvesters have gathered the grain. It will be desolate, like the fields in the valley of Rephaim after the harvest.

就必像收割的人收敛禾稼，用手割取穗子，又像人在利乏音谷拾取遗落的穗子。

像人收割成熟的禾稼，用手臂割取麦穗，又像人在利乏音谷拾取穗子；

像人收割成熟的禾稼，用手臂割取麦穗，又像人在利乏音谷拾取穗子；

国家好像一块已收割的田地，又像捡净麦穗的利乏音谷。

就像收割的人收聚庄稼，用手割取穗子；又像人在利乏音谷，拾取遗落的穗子。

但事情却要像这样成就：当收割的人聚拢禾杆、用手割取穗子，拾穗的人在利乏音谷捡拾穗子时，

就必像收割的人收斂禾稼，用手割取穗子，又像人在利乏音谷拾取遺落的穗子。

像人收割成熟的禾稼，用手臂割取麥穗，又像人在利乏音谷拾取穗子；

像人收割成熟的禾稼，用手臂割取麥穗，又像人在利乏音谷拾取穗子；

國家好像一塊已收割的田地，又像撿淨麥穗的利乏音谷。

就像收割的人收聚莊稼，用手割取穗子；又像人在利乏音谷，拾取遺落的穗子。

就像收割人收集站着的莊稼，用手割取穗子；又像人在利乏音山谷撿遺落的穗子。

但事情卻要像這樣成就：當收割的人聚攏禾杆、用手割取穗子，拾穗的人在利乏音谷撿拾穗子時，

勢如穫者斂穡、以手刈穗、如人拾遺於利乏音谷、

民人被虜、若哩乏音谷中人、刈禾懷穗、

景象如刈穫者收斂禾稼、以手割穗、又如人在利乏音谷、拾取遺穗、

It will be as when reapers harvest the standing grain, gathering the grain in their arms— as when someone gleans heads of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.

It will be as when workers cut and gather grain in the Valley of Rephaim. They gather up stalks in their arms. Only a few heads of grain are left.

And it shall be as when the reaper gathers standing grain and his arm harvests the ears, and as when one gleans the ears of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.

It will be as if a reaper had gathered standing grain— his arm harvesting the heads of grain— and as if one had gleaned heads of grain in Rephaim Valley.

It will be like the reaper gathering the standing grain, As his arm harvests the ears, Or it will be like one gleaning ears of grain In the Valley of Rephaim.

It shall be as when the harvester gathers the grain, And reaps the heads with his arm; It shall be as he who gathers heads of grain In the Valley of Rephaim.

And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the standing grain, and his arm reapeth the ears; yea, it shall be as when one gleaneth ears in the valley of Rephaim.

It will be as if a reaper had gathered standing grain— his arm harvesting the heads of grain— and as if one had gleaned heads of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.

And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim.

It will be as when one gathers the grain harvest, and his hand gleans the ear of grain. It will be like one gathering the ears of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.

It will be like when the harvester gathers the wheat, and his arm reaps the grain. Yes, it will be like when one gleans grain in the valley of Rephaim.

Let both grow together until the harvest. Then I will tell the harvesters to sort out the weeds, tie them into bundles, and burn them, and to put the wheat in the barn.’”

Swing the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, tread the grapes, for the winepress is full. The storage vats are overflowing with the wickedness of these people.”

This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel, says:“ Babylon is like wheat on a threshing floor, about to be trampled. In just a little while her harvest will begin.”

The Philistines arrived and spread out across the valley of Rephaim.

Then another angel came from the Temple and shouted to the one sitting on the cloud,“ Swing the sickle, for the time of harvest has come; the crop on earth is ripe.”So the one sitting on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the whole earth was harvested.After that, another angel came from the Temple in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle.Then another angel, who had power to destroy with fire, came from the altar. He shouted to the angel with the sharp sickle,“ Swing your sickle now to gather the clusters of grapes from the vines of the earth, for they are ripe for judgment.”So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and loaded the grapes into the great winepress of God’s wrath.The grapes were trampled in the winepress outside the city, and blood flowed from the winepress in a stream about 180 miles long and as high as a horse’s bridle.

But after a while the Philistines returned and again spread out across the valley of Rephaim.

The enemy who planted the weeds among the wheat is the devil. The harvest is the end of the world, and the harvesters are the angels.“ Just as the weeds are sorted out and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the world.The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will remove from his Kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil.And the angels will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The boundary then passed through the valley of Ben Hinnom, along the southern slopes of the Jebusites, where the city of Jerusalem is located. Then it went west to the top of the mountain above the valley of Hinnom, and on up to the northern end of the valley of Rephaim.

They may sprout on the day you set them out; yes, they may blossom on the very morning you plant them, but you will never pick any grapes from them. Your only harvest will be a load of grief and unrelieved pain.

This is what the Lord says:“ Bodies will be scattered across the fields like clumps of manure, like bundles of grain after the harvest. No one will be left to bury them.”

and down to the base of the mountain beside the valley of Ben Hinnom, at the northern end of the valley of Rephaim. From there it went down the valley of Hinnom, crossing south of the slope where the Jebusites lived, and continued down to En rogel.
