以西結書 12
1 耶和華的話又臨到我說：
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
2 「人子啊，你住在悖逆的家中。他們有眼睛看不見，有耳朵聽不見，因為他們是悖逆之家。
Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not, which have ears to hear, and hear not; for they are a rebellious house.
3 所以人子啊，你要預備擄去使用的物件，在白日當他們眼前從你所住的地方移到別處去；他們雖是悖逆之家，或者可以揣摩思想。
And thou, son of man, prepare thee a captive's baggage, and go captive by day in their sight; and thou shalt go captive from thy place to another place in their sight. It may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house.
4 你要在白日當他們眼前帶出你的物件去，好像預備擄去使用的物件。到了晚上，你要在他們眼前親自出去，像被擄的人出去一樣。
And bring forth thy baggage by day in their sight, as a captive's baggage, and thou thyself, go forth at even in their sight as they that go forth into captivity.
5 你要在他們眼前挖通了牆，從其中將物件帶出去。
Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.
6 到天黑時，你要當他們眼前搭在肩頭上帶出去，並要蒙住臉看不見地，因為我立你作以色列家的預兆。」
In their sight shalt thou bear [it] upon [thy] shoulder, and carry it forth in the dark; thou shalt cover thy face, and thou shalt not see the ground: for I have appointed thee for a sign unto the house of Israel.
7 我就照着所吩咐的去行，白日帶出我的物件，好像預備擄去使用的物件。到了晚上，我用手挖通了牆。天黑的時候，就當他們眼前搭在肩頭上帶出去。
And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my baggage by day, as a captive's baggage, and in the even I digged through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the dark, [and] bore it upon [my] shoulder, in their sight.
8 次日早晨，耶和華的話臨到我說：
And in the morning the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
9 「人子啊，以色列家，就是那悖逆之家，豈不是問你說：『你做甚麼呢？』
Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou?
10 你要對他們說：『主耶和華如此說：這是關乎耶路撒冷的君王和他周圍以色列全家的預表。』
Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: This burden [concerneth] the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.
11 你要說：『我作你們的預兆：我怎樣行，他們所遭遇的也必怎樣，他們必被擄去。』
Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall go into exile, into captivity.
12 他們中間的君王也必在天黑的時候將物件搭在肩頭上帶出去。他們要挖通了牆，從其中帶出去。他必蒙住臉，眼看不見地。
And the prince that is among them shall bear upon [his] shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth; they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby; he shall cover his face, that he see not the land with [his] eyes.
13 我必將我的網撒在他身上，他必在我的網羅中纏住。我必帶他到迦勒底人之地的巴比倫；他雖死在那裏，卻看不見那地。
And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; but he shall not see it, and there shall he die.
14 周圍一切幫助他的和他所有的軍隊，我必分散四方，也要拔刀追趕他們。
And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his troops; and I will draw out the sword after them.
15 我將他們四散在列國、分散在列邦的時候，他們就知道我是耶和華。
And they shall know that I [am] Jehovah when I shall scatter them among the nations and disperse them through the countries.
16 我卻要留下他們幾個人得免刀劍、饑荒、瘟疫，使他們在所到的各國中述說他們一切可憎的事，人就知道我是耶和華。」
But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the nations whither they shall come; and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
17 耶和華的話又臨到我說：
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
18 「人子啊，你吃飯必膽戰，喝水必惶惶憂慮。
Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with anxiety;
19 你要對這地的百姓說：主耶和華論耶路撒冷和以色列地的居民如此說，他們吃飯必憂慮，喝水必驚惶。因其中居住的眾人所行強暴的事，這地必然荒廢，一無所存。
and say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, in the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with anxiety, and drink their water with astonishment, because her land shall be left desolate of all that is in it, for the violence of all them that dwell therein.
20 有居民的城邑必變為荒場，地也必變為荒廢；你們就知道我是耶和華。」
And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be a desolation; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
21 耶和華的話臨到我說：
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
22 「人子啊，在你們以色列地怎麼有這俗語，說『日子遲延，一切異象都落了空』呢？
Son of man, what is that proverb which ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days shall be prolonged, and every vision faileth?
23 你要告訴他們說：『主耶和華如此說：我必使這俗語止息，以色列中不再用這俗語。』你卻要對他們說：『日子臨近，一切的異象必都應驗。』
Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the accomplishment of every vision.
24 從此，在以色列家中必不再有虛假的異象和奉承的占卜。
For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination in the midst of the house of Israel.
25 我－耶和華說話，所說的必定成就，不再耽延。你們這悖逆之家，我所說的話必趁你們在世的日子成就。這是主耶和華說的。」
For I [am] Jehovah; I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall be performed, it shall be no more deferred. For in your days, O rebellious house, will I speak the word and will perform it, saith the Lord Jehovah.
26 耶和華的話又臨到我說：
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
27 「人子啊，以色列家的人說：『他所見的異象是關乎後來許多的日子，所說的預言是指着極遠的時候。』
Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he seeth is for many days, and he prophesieth of times that are far off.
28 所以你要對他們說：『主耶和華如此說：我的話沒有一句再耽延的，我所說的必定成就。這是主耶和華說的。』」
Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: There shall none of my words be deferred any more, but the word that I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord Jehovah.
