以西結書 26
1 十一年十一月一日，上主的話傳給我說：「
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 人子，因為提洛譏笑耶路撒冷說：『哈哈! 眾民的門戶已破壞，已轉讓與我；我要富強，她反要荒蕪。』
Son of man, because Tyre hath said concerning Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people; she is turned unto me; I shall be made full, now she is laid in ruins:
3 為此吾主上主這樣說：提洛，看，我要攻擊你，引領眾民像滾來的海潮來攻擊你。
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I am against thee, O Tyre, and will bring up against thee many nations, as the sea causeth its waves to come up.
4 他們要破壞提洛的城牆，蕩平角樓，而我要掃除其中的塵土，使她成為光滑的磐石，
And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre, and pull down her towers: I will also flood away her earth from her, and I will change her into a naked rock.
5 作為海中曬網的地方：這是我，上主親自說的──吾主上主的斷語──她必成為異民的掠物。
A place for the spreading out of nets shall she be in the midst of the sea; for I have spoken it, saith the Lord Eternal: and she shall become a spoil to the nations.
6 那在陸地上的屬城，必毀於刀劍：如此，他們要承認我是上主。
And her daughters that are in the field shall be slain with the sword: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
7 因為吾主上主這樣說：看，我要使王中之王，巴比倫王拿步高，從北方率領戰馬、戰車、騎兵和龐大的聯軍來攻打提洛。
For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will bring against Tyre Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, from the north, the king of kings, with horses, and with chariot's, and with horsemen, and an assemblage, and a numerous people.
8 他要用刀劍屠殺你陸上的屬城，豎起攻你的雲梯，築起攻你的高台，設立攻你的高楯，
Thy daughters in the field will he slay with the sword: and he shall place around thee works of attack, and cast up against thee a mound, and erect against thee a target-fence.
9 支起破城機撞擊你的城牆，用鐵器擊毀你的角樓。
And his catapults shall he set against thy walls, and thy towers shall he break down with his axes.
10 你要為他大批戰馬所掀起的塵土所掩蓋，你的城牆要為他的騎兵、車輪和戰車的轟轟聲所震動；當他進入你的城門時，好像進入一座已征服的城。
By reason of the abundance of his horses shall the dust they raise cover thee: by reason of the noise of horsemen, and wheels, and chariots, shall thy walls quake, when he entereth into thy gates, as men enter into a city that is broken in.
11 他戰馬的鐵蹄要踏遍你的街道，他將用刀劍屠殺你的人民，且把你的神柱推倒在地。
With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all thy streets: thy people will he slay with the sword, and the statues of thy strength shall come down to the ground.
12 他們要搶掠你的財富，劫奪你的貨品，破壞你的城垣，拆毀你豪華的宮室，並把你的石頭、木材和瓦礫拋到海中。
And they shall plunder thy riches, and make a spoil of thy merchandise; and they shall break down thy walls, and thy pleasure-houses shall they pull down: and thy stones and thy timber and thy earth shall they throw into the midst of the water.
13 我要使你的歌聲停止，再也聽不到你的琴聲。
And I will cause the sound of thy songs to cease: and the tones of thy harps shall not be heard any more.
14 我要使你成為光滑的磐石，成為曬網的乾地；你將永不得重建，因為是我，上主說的──吾主上主的斷語。
And I will change thee into a naked rock; a place to spread out nets upon shalt thou be; thou shalt not be rebuilt any more; for I the Lord have spoken it, saith the Lord Eternal.
15 吾主上主論提洛這樣說：當屠刀在你中間屠殺之時，受傷者呻吟之際，你傾倒之聲，群島聽了，豈不震動﹖
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to Tyre, Truly at the noise of thy fall, when the deadly wounded whine, when the slaughter taketh place in the midst of thee, shall the islands quake.
16 所有海上的王子都要由寶座上下來，除去朝服，脫下錦衣，皆為恐怖所籠罩，坐在地上，不停地戰慄，為你而驚駭。
Then shall all the princes of the sea come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and their broidered garments shall they put off: with trembling shall they clothe themselves; upon the ground shall they sit, and shall tremble at every moment, and be astonished concerning thee.
17 他們且作哀歌憑弔你說：你這居於水上，海上稱霸的名城，你和你的居民曾威脅過陸上的居民，怎麼滅亡了呢﹖
And they shall lift up over thee a lamentation, and say to thee, How art thou lost, that wast inhabited [safely] by reason of the seas: O renowned city, which was strong on the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all that dwelt around her!
18 現今，群島在你傾覆之日大為震動，海中島嶼為了你的結局，甚為恐懼。
Now shall the isles tremble on the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy end.
19 因為吾主上主這樣說：當我使你成為一座荒蕪，像無人居住的城池時，當我使深淵上升，使大水淹沒你時，
For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, When I render thee a ruined city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I bring up over thee the deep, and when the great waters cover thee:
20 我要把你推下，與先前下到陰府的古人在一起；我要使你住在極深之處，即住在久已荒蕪之地；與下到陰府的人在一起，以致你再不得返回，在生活的大地上復興。
Then will I bring thee down with those that descend into the pit, unto the people of olden time, and I will cause thee to dwell in the land of the nether world, among ruins of ancient days, with those that go down to the pit, in order that thou mayest not be inhabited; but I will bestow glory in the land of life.
21 我要使你成為恐怖的對象，永不復存在；即便人找你，也永遠再找不到──吾主上主的斷語。」
As though thou hadst not been will I render thee, and thou shalt be no more: and thou shalt be sought for, but thou shalt never be found any more to eternity, saith the Lord Eternal.
