以西结书 30
1 耶和华的话又临到我说：
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2 “人子啊，你要发预言说，主耶和华如此说： 哀哉这日！你们应当哭号。
“Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Wail, ‘Alas for the day!’
3 因为耶和华的日子临近， 就是密云之日， 列国受罚之期。
For the day is near, even the LORD’s day is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.
4 必有刀剑临到埃及； 在埃及被杀之人仆倒的时候， 古实人就有痛苦， 人民必被掳掠， 基址必被拆毁。
A sword will come on Egypt, and anguish will be in Ethiopia, when the slain fall in Egypt. They take away her multitude, and her foundations are broken down.
5 古实人、弗人、路德人、杂族的人民，并古巴人，以及同盟之地的人都要与埃及人一同倒在刀下。”
“‘“Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all the mixed people, Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, will fall with them by the sword.”
6 耶和华如此说： 扶助埃及的也必倾倒。 埃及因势力而有的骄傲必降低微； 其中的人民，从色弗尼塔起必倒在刀下。 这是主耶和华说的。
“‘The LORD says: “They also who uphold Egypt will fall. The pride of her power will come down. They will fall by the sword in it from the tower of Seveneh,” says the Lord GOD.
7 埃及地在荒凉的国中必成为荒凉； 埃及城在荒废的城中也变为荒废。
“They will be desolate in the middle of the countries that are desolate. Her cities will be among the cities that are wasted.
8 我在埃及中使火着起； 帮助埃及的，都被灭绝。 那时，他们就知道我是耶和华。
They will know that I am the LORD when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.
9 “到那日，必有使者坐船，从我面前出去，使安逸无虑的古实人惊惧；必有痛苦临到他们，好像埃及遭灾的日子一样。看哪，这事临近了！
“‘“In that day messengers will go out from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid. There will be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, behold, it comes.”
10 主耶和华如此说： 我必借巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒的手， 除灭埃及众人。
“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease, by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
11 他和随从他的人， 就是列国中强暴的， 必进来毁灭这地。 他们必拔刀攻击埃及， 使遍地有被杀的人。
He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
12 我必使江河干涸， 将地卖在恶人的手中； 我必借外邦人的手， 使这地和其中所有的变为凄凉。 这是我—耶和华说的。
I will make the rivers dry, and will sell the land into the hand of evil men. I will make the land desolate, and all that is therein, by the hand of foreigners. I, the LORD, have spoken it.”
13 主耶和华如此说： 我必毁灭偶像， 从挪弗除灭神像； 必不再有君王出自埃及地。 我要使埃及地的人惧怕。
“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis. There will be no more a prince from the land of Egypt. I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14 我必使巴忒罗荒凉， 在琐安中使火着起， 向挪施行审判。
I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments on No.
15 我必将我的忿怒倒在埃及的保障上， 就是训上， 并要剪除挪的众人。
I will pour my wrath on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt. I will cut off the multitude of No.
16 我必在埃及中使火着起； 训必大大痛苦； 挪必被攻破； 挪弗白日见仇敌。
I will set a fire in Egypt Sin will be in great anguish. No will be broken up. Memphis will have adversaries in the daytime.
17 亚文和比伯实的少年人必倒在刀下； 这些城的人必被掳掠。
The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth will fall by the sword. They will go into captivity.
18 我在答比匿折断埃及的诸轭， 使她因势力而有的骄傲在其中止息。 那时，日光必退去； 至于这城，必有密云遮蔽， 其中的女子必被掳掠。
At Tehaphnehes also the day will withdraw itself, when I break the yokes of Egypt there. The pride of her power will cease in her. As for her, a cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
19 我必这样向埃及施行审判， 他们就知道我是耶和华。”
Thus I will execute judgments on Egypt. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”’”
20 十一年正月初七日，耶和华的话临到我说：
In the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
21 “人子啊，我已打折埃及王法老的膀臂；没有敷药，也没有用布缠好，使他有力持刀。
“Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Behold, it has not been bound up, to apply medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it may become strong to hold the sword.
22 所以主耶和华如此说：看哪，我与埃及王法老为敌，必将他有力的膀臂和已打折的膀臂全行打断，使刀从他手中坠落。
Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken. I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23 我必将埃及人分散在列国，四散在列邦。
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
24 我必使巴比伦王的膀臂有力，将我的刀交在他手中；却要打断法老的膀臂，他就在巴比伦王面前唉哼，如同受死伤的人一样。
I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before the king of Babylon with the groaning of a mortally wounded man.
25 我必扶持巴比伦王的膀臂，法老的膀臂却要下垂；我将我的刀交在巴比伦王手中，他必举刀攻击埃及地，他们就知道我是耶和华。
I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall down. Then they will know that I am the LORD when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he stretches it out on the land of Egypt.
26 我必将埃及人分散在列国，四散在列邦；他们就知道我是耶和华。”
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them through the countries. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
