以西结书 5
1 “人子啊，你要拿一把快刀，当作剃头刀，用这刀剃你的头发和你的胡须，用天平将须发平分。
And you, son of man, take you a sword sharper than a barber's razor; you shall procure it for yourself, and shall bring it upon your head, and upon your beard: and you shall take a pair of scales, and shall separate the hair.
2 围困城的日子满了，你要将三分之一在城中用火焚烧，将三分之一在城的四围用刀砍碎，将三分之一任风吹散；我也要拔刀追赶。
A fourth part you shall burn in the fire in the midst of the city, at the fulfilment of the days of the siege: and you shall take a fourth part, and burn it up in the midst of it: and a fourth part you shall cut with a sword round about it: and a fourth part you shall scatter to the wind; and I will draw out a sword after them.
3 你要从其中取几根包在衣襟里，
And you shall take thence a few in number, and shall wrap them in the fold of your garment.
4 再从这几根中取些扔在火中焚烧，从里面必有火出来烧入以色列全家。
And you shall take of these again, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them up with fire: from thence shall come forth fire; and you shall say to the whole house of Israel,
5 主耶和华如此说：这就是耶路撒冷。我曾将她安置在列邦之中；列国都在她的四围。
Thus says the Lord; This is Jerusalem: I have set her and the countries round about her in the midst of the nations.
6 她行恶，违背我的典章，过于列国；干犯我的律例，过于四围的列邦，因为她弃掉我的典章。至于我的律例，她并没有遵行。
And you shall declare mine ordinances to the lawless one from out of the nations; and my statutes [to the sinful one] of the countries round about her: because they have rejected mine ordinances, and have not walked in my statutes.
7 所以主耶和华如此说：因为你们纷争过于四围的列国，也不遵行我的律例，不谨守我的典章，并以遵从四围列国的恶规尚不满意，
Therefore thus says the Lord, Because your occasion [for sin has been taken] from the nations round about you, and you have not walked in my statutes, nor kept mine ordinances, nay, you have not even done according to the ordinances of the nations round about you; therefore thus says the Lord;
8 所以主耶和华如此说：看哪，我与你反对，必在列国的眼前，在你中间，施行审判；
Behold, I am against you, and I will execute judgement in the midst of you in the sight of the nations.
9 并且因你一切可憎的事，我要在你中间行我所未曾行的，以后我也不再照着行。
And I will do in you things which I have not done, and the like of which I will not do again, for all your abominations.
10 在你中间父亲要吃儿子，儿子要吃父亲。我必向你施行审判，我必将你所剩下的分散四方。”
Therefore the fathers shall eat [their] children in the midst of you, and children shall eat [their] fathers; and I will execute judgements in you, and I will scatter all that are left of you to every wind.
11 主耶和华说：“我指着我的永生起誓，因你用一切可憎的物、可厌的事玷污了我的圣所，故此，我定要使你人数减少，我眼必不顾惜你，也不可怜你。
Therefore, [as] I live, says the Lord; surely, because you have defiled my holy things with all your abominations, I also will reject you; mine eye shall not spare, and I will have no mercy.
12 你的民三分之一必遭瘟疫而死，在你中间必因饥荒消灭；三分之一必在你四围倒在刀下；我必将三分之一分散四方，并要拔刀追赶他们。
A fourth part of you shall be cut off by pestilence, and a fourth part of you shall be consumed in the midst of you with famine: and [as for another] fourth part of you, I will scatter them to every wind; and a fourth part of you shall fall by sword round about you, and I will draw out a sword after them.
13 “我要这样成就怒中所定的；我向他们发的忿怒止息了，自己就得着安慰。我在他们身上成就怒中所定的那时，他们就知道我—耶和华所说的是出于热心；
And my wrath and mine anger shall be accomplished upon them: and you shall know that I the Lord have spoken in my jealousy, when I have accomplished mine anger upon them.
14 并且我必使你在四围的列国中，在经过的众人眼前，成了荒凉和羞辱。
And I will make you desolate, and your daughters round about you, in the sight of every one that passes through.
15 这样，我必以怒气和忿怒，并烈怒的责备，向你施行审判。那时，你就在四围的列国中成为羞辱、讥刺、警戒、惊骇。这是我—耶和华说的。
And you shall be mourned over and miserable amongst the nations round about you, when I have executed judgements in you in the vengeance of my wrath. I the Lord have spoken.
16 那时，我要将灭人、使人饥荒的恶箭，就是射去灭人的，射在你们身上，并要加增你们的饥荒，断绝你们所倚靠的粮食；
And when I have sent against them shafts of famine, then they shall be consumed, and I will break the strength of your bread.
17 又要使饥荒和恶兽到你那里，叫你丧子，瘟疫和流血的事也必盛行在你那里；我也要使刀剑临到你。这是我—耶和华说的。”
So I will send forth against you famine and evil beasts, and I will take vengeance upon you; and pestilence and blood shall pass through upon you; and I will bring a sword upon you round about. I the Lord have spoken.
