以西结书 37
1 耶和华的灵降在我身上。耶和华借他的灵带我出去，将我放在平原中；这平原遍满骸骨。
There has been a hand of YHWH on me, and He takes me forth in [the] Spirit of YHWH, and places me in the midst of the valley, and it is full of bones,
2 他使我从骸骨的四围经过，谁知在平原的骸骨甚多，而且极其枯干。
and He causes me to pass over by them, all around, and behold, very many [are] on the face of the valley, and behold—very dry.
3 他对我说：“人子啊，这些骸骨能复活吗？”我说：“主耶和华啊，你是知道的。”
And He says to me, “Son of man, do these bones live?” And I say, “O Lord YHWH, You have known.”
4 他又对我说：“你向这些骸骨发预言说：枯干的骸骨啊，要听耶和华的话。
And He says to me, “Prophesy concerning these bones, and you have said to them, O dry bones, hear a word of YHWH!
5 主耶和华对这些骸骨如此说：‘我必使气息进入你们里面，你们就要活了。
Thus said Lord YHWH to these bones: Behold, I am bringing a spirit into you, and you have lived,
6 我必给你们加上筋，使你们长肉，又将皮遮蔽你们，使气息进入你们里面，你们就要活了；你们便知道我是耶和华。’”
and I have given sinews on you, and cause flesh to come up on you, and covered you over with skin, and given a spirit in you, and you have lived, and you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
7 于是，我遵命说预言。正说预言的时候，不料，有响声，有地震；骨与骨互相联络。
And I have prophesied as I have been commanded, and there is a noise as I am prophesying, and behold, a rushing, and the bones draw near, bone to its bone.
8 我观看，见骸骨上有筋，也长了肉，又有皮遮蔽其上，只是还没有气息。
And I beheld, and behold, sinews [are] on them, and flesh has come up, and skin covers them over above—and there is no spirit in them.
9 主对我说：“人子啊，你要发预言，向风发预言，说主耶和华如此说：气息啊，要从四方而来，吹在这些被杀的人身上，使他们活了。”
And He says to me: “Prophesy to the Spirit, prophesy, son of man, and you have said to the Spirit, Thus said Lord YHWH: Come in from the four winds, O Spirit, and breathe on these slain, and they live.”
10 于是我遵命说预言，气息就进入骸骨，骸骨便活了，并且站起来，成为极大的军队。
And I have prophesied as He commanded me, and the Spirit comes into them, and they live, and stand on their feet—a very, very great force.
11 主对我说：“人子啊，这些骸骨就是以色列全家。他们说：‘我们的骨头枯干了，我们的指望失去了，我们灭绝净尽了。’
And He says to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they are saying, Our bones have dried up, And our hope has perished, We have been cut off by ourselves.
12 所以你要发预言对他们说，主耶和华如此说：‘我的民哪，我必开你们的坟墓，使你们从坟墓中出来，领你们进入以色列地。
Therefore, prophesy, and you have said to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am opening your graves, And have brought you up out of your graves, O My people, And brought you into the land of Israel.
13 我的民哪，我开你们的坟墓，使你们从坟墓中出来，你们就知道我是耶和华。
And you have known that I [am] YHWH, In My opening your graves, And in My bringing you up out of your graves, O My people.
14 我必将我的灵放在你们里面，你们就要活了。我将你们安置在本地，你们就知道我—耶和华如此说，也如此成就了。这是耶和华说的。’”
And I have given My Spirit in you, and you have lived, And I have caused you to rest on your land, And you have known that I, YHWH, have spoken, and I have done [it], A declaration of YHWH.”
15 耶和华的话又临到我说：
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
16 “人子啊，你要取一根木杖，在其上写‘为犹大和他的同伴以色列人’；又取一根木杖，在其上写‘为约瑟，就是为以法莲，又为他的同伴以色列全家’。
“And you, son of man, take one stick for yourself, and write on it, For Judah, and for the sons of Israel, his companions; and take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the house of Israel, his companions,
17 你要使这两根木杖接连为一，在你手中成为一根。
and bring them near to one another, to you, for one stick, and they have become one in your hand.
18 你本国的子民问你说：‘这是什么意思？你不指示我们吗？’
And when sons of your people speak to you, saying, Do you not declare to us what these [are] to you?
19 你就对他们说：‘主耶和华如此说：我要将约瑟和他同伴以色列支派的杖，就是那在以法莲手中的，与犹大的杖一同接连为一，在我手中成为一根。’
Speak to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am taking the stick of Joseph, that [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions, and have given them to him, with the stick of Judah, and have made them become one stick, and they have been one in My hand.
20 你所写的那两根杖要在他们眼前拿在手中，
And the sticks on which you write have been in your hand before your eyes,
21 要对他们说，主耶和华如此说：我要将以色列人从他们所到的各国收取，又从四围聚集他们，引导他们归回本地。
and speak to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am taking the sons of Israel, From among the nations to where they have gone, And have gathered them from all around, And I have brought them into their land.
22 我要使他们在那地，在以色列山上成为一国，有一王作他们众民的王。他们不再为二国，决不再分为二国；
And I have made them become one nation in the land, on mountains of Israel, And one king is to them all for king, And they are no longer as two nations, Nor are they divided anymore into two kingdoms again.
23 也不再因偶像和可憎的物，并一切的罪过玷污自己。我却要救他们出离一切的住处，就是他们犯罪的地方；我要洁净他们，如此，他们要作我的子民，我要作他们的 神。
Nor are they defiled anymore with their idols, And with their abominations, And with any of their transgressions, And I have saved them out of all their dwellings, In which they have sinned, And I have cleansed them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God.
24 “我的仆人大卫必作他们的王；众民必归一个牧人。他们必顺从我的典章，谨守遵行我的律例。
And My servant David [is] king over them, And they all have one shepherd, And they go in My judgments, And they keep My statutes, and have done them.
25 他们必住在我赐给我仆人雅各的地上，就是你们列祖所住之地。他们和他们的子孙，并子孙的子孙，都永远住在那里。我的仆人大卫必作他们的王，直到永远。
And they have dwelt on the land that I gave to My servant, to Jacob, In which your fathers have dwelt, And they have dwelt on it, they and their sons, And their son’s sons—for all time, And My servant David [is] their prince for all time.
26 并且我要与他们立平安的约，作为永约。我也要将他们安置在本地，使他们的人数增多，又在他们中间设立我的圣所，直到永远。
And I have made a covenant of peace with them, It is a perpetual covenant with them, And I have placed them, and multiplied them, And placed My sanctuary in their midst for all time.
27 我的居所必在他们中间；我要作他们的 神，他们要作我的子民。
And My dwelling place has been over them, And I have been to them for God, And they have been to Me for a people.
28 我的圣所在以色列人中间直到永远，外邦人就必知道我是叫以色列成为圣的耶和华。”
And the nations have known that I, YHWH, am sanctifying Israel, In My sanctuary being in their midst for all time!”
