以西结书 3
1 他对我说：“人子啊，要吃你所得的，要吃这书卷，好去对以色列家讲说。”
And he said to me, Son of Man, eat this volume, and go and speak to the children of Israel.
2 于是我开口，他就使我吃这书卷，
So he opened my mouth, and caused me to eat the volume. And he said to me, Son of man,
3 又对我说：“人子啊，要吃我所赐给你的这书卷，充满你的肚腹。”我就吃了，口中觉得其甜如蜜。
your mouth shall eat, and your belly shall be filled with this volume that is given to you. So I ate it; and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey.
4 他对我说：“人子啊，你往以色列家那里去，将我的话对他们讲说。
And he said to me, Son of man, go your way, and go in to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.
5 你奉差遣不是往那说话深奥、言语难懂的民那里去，乃是往以色列家去；
For you are not sent to a people of hard speech, [but] to the house of Israel;
6 不是往那说话深奥、言语难懂的多国去，他们的话语是你不懂得的。我若差你往他们那里去，他们必听从你。
neither to many nations of other speech and other tongues, nor of harsh language, whose words you would not understand: although if I [had] sent you to such, they would have listened to you.
7 以色列家却不肯听从你，因为他们不肯听从我；原来以色列全家是额坚心硬的人。
But the house of Israel will not be willing to listen to you; for they will not listen to me: for all the house of Israel are stubborn and hard-hearted.
8 看哪，我使你的脸硬过他们的脸，使你的额硬过他们的额。
And, behold, I have made your face strong against their faces, and I will strengthen your power against their power.
9 我使你的额像金钢钻，比火石更硬。他们虽是悖逆之家，你不要怕他们，也不要因他们的脸色惊惶。”
And it shall be continually stronger than a rock: be not afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their faces, because it is a provoking house.
10 他又对我说：“人子啊，我对你所说的一切话，要心里领会，耳中听闻。
And he said to me, Son of man, receive into your heart all the words that I have spoken to you, and hear [them] with your ears.
11 你往你本国被掳的子民那里去，他们或听，或不听，你要对他们讲说，告诉他们这是主耶和华说的。”
And go your way, go in to the captivity, to the children of your people, and you shall speak to them, and say to them, Thus says the Lord; whether they will hear, [or] whether they will forbear.
12 那时，灵将我举起，我就听见在我身后有震动轰轰的声音，说：“从耶和华的所在显出来的荣耀是该称颂的！”
Then the Spirit took me up, and I heard behind me the voice [as] of a great earthquake, [saying], Blessed [be] the glory of the Lord from his place.
13 我又听见那活物翅膀相碰，与活物旁边轮子旋转震动轰轰的响声。
And I perceived the sound of the wings of the living creatures clapping one to the other, and the sound of the wheels was near them, and the sound of the earthquake.
14 于是灵将我举起，带我而去。我心中甚苦，灵性忿激，并且耶和华的灵在我身上大有能力。
And the Spirit lifted me, and took me up, and I went in the impulse of my spirit; and the hand of the Lord was mighty upon me.
15 我就来到提勒·亚毕，住在迦巴鲁河边被掳的人那里，到他们所住的地方，在他们中间忧忧闷闷地坐了七日。
Then I passed through the air and came into the captivity, and went round [to] them that lived by the river of Chobar who were there; and I sat there seven days, conversant in the midst of them.
16 过了七日，耶和华的话临到我说：
And after the seven days the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Son of man,
17 “人子啊，我立你作以色列家守望的人，所以你要听我口中的话，替我警戒他们。
I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel; and you shall hear a word of my mouth, and shall threaten them from me.
18 我何时指着恶人说：他必要死；你若不警戒他，也不劝戒他，使他离开恶行，拯救他的性命，这恶人必死在罪孽之中；我却要向你讨他丧命的罪。
When I say to the wicked, You shall surely die; and you have not warned him, to give warning to the wicked, to turn from his ways, that he should live; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.
19 倘若你警戒恶人，他仍不转离罪恶，也不离开恶行，他必死在罪孽之中，你却救自己脱离了罪。
But if you warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, and from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, and you shall deliver your soul.
20 再者，义人何时离义而犯罪，我将绊脚石放在他面前，他就必死；因你没有警戒他，他必死在罪中，他素来所行的义不被记念；我却要向你讨他丧命的罪。
And when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits a trespass, and I shall bring punishment before him, he shall die, because you did not warn him: he shall even die in his sins, because his righteousness shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at your hand.
21 倘若你警戒义人，使他不犯罪，他就不犯罪；他因受警戒就必存活，你也救自己脱离了罪。”
But if you warn the righteous not to sin, and he sin not, the righteous shall surely live, because you have warned him; and you shall deliver your own soul.
22 耶和华的灵在那里降在我身上。他对我说：“你起来往平原去，我要在那里和你说话。”
And the hand of the Lord came upon me; and he said to me, Arise, and go forth into the plain, and there shall you be spoken to.
23 于是我起来往平原去，不料，耶和华的荣耀正如我在迦巴鲁河边所见的一样，停在那里，我就俯伏于地。
And I arose, and went forth to the plain: and, behold, the glory of the Lord stood there, according to the vision, and according to the glory of the Lord, which I saw by the river of Chobar: and I fell on my face.
24 灵就进入我里面，使我站起来。耶和华对我说：“你进房屋去，将门关上。
Then the Spirit came upon me, and set me on my feet, and spoke to me, and said to me, Go in, and shut yourself up in the midst of your house.
25 人子啊，人必用绳索捆绑你，你就不能出去在他们中间来往。
And you, son of man, behold, bonds are prepared for you, and they shall bind you with them, and you shall not come forth of the midst of them.
26 我必使你的舌头贴住上膛，以致你哑口，不能作责备他们的人；他们原是悖逆之家。
Also I will bind your tongue, and you shall be dumb, and shall not be to them a reprover: because it is a provoking house.
27 但我对你说话的时候，必使你开口，你就要对他们说：‘主耶和华如此说。’听的可以听，不听的任他不听，因为他们是悖逆之家。”
But when I speak to you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord, He that hears, let him hear; and he that is disobedient, let him be disobedient: because it is a provoking house.
