< 以西結書 26 >

1 第十一年十一月初一日,耶和華的話臨到我說:
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first [day] of the month, [that] the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 「人子啊,因泰爾向耶路撒冷說:『阿哈,那作眾民之門的已經破壞,向我開放;她既變為荒場,我必豐盛。』
Son of man, because Sor has said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is crushed: the nations are destroyed: she is turned to me: she that was full is made desolate:
3 所以,主耶和華如此說:泰爾啊,我必與你為敵,使許多國民上來攻擊你,如同海使波浪湧上來一樣。
therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I am against you, O Sor, and I will bring up many nations against you, as the sea comes up with its waves.
4 他們必破壞泰爾的牆垣,拆毀她的城樓。我也要刮淨塵土,使她成為淨光的磐石。
And they shall cast down the walls of Sor, and shall cast down your towers: and I will scrape her dust from off her, and make her a bare rock.
5 她必在海中作曬網的地方,也必成為列國的擄物。這是主耶和華說的。
She shall be in the midst of the sea a place for repairing nets: for I have spoken [it], says the Lord: and it shall be a spoil for the nations.
6 屬泰爾城邑的居民必被刀劍殺滅,他們就知道我是耶和華。」
And her daughters [which are] in the field shall be slain with the sword, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
7 主耶和華如此說:「我必使諸王之王的巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒率領馬匹車輛、馬兵、軍隊,和許多人民從北方來攻擊你泰爾。
For thus says the Lord; Behold, I [will] bring up against you, O Sor, Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon from the north: he is a king of kings, with horses, and chariots, and horsemen, and a concourse of very many nations.
8 他必用刀劍殺滅屬你城邑的居民,也必造臺築壘舉盾牌攻擊你。
He shall kill your daughters that are in the field with the sword, and shall set a watch against you, and build forts around you, and carry a rampart round against you, and set up warlike works, and array his spears against you.
9 他必安設撞城錘攻破你的牆垣,用鐵器拆毀你的城樓。
He shall cast down with his swords your walls and your towers.
10 因他的馬匹眾多,塵土揚起遮蔽你。他進入你的城門,好像人進入已有破口之城。那時,你的牆垣必因騎馬的和戰車、輜重車的響聲震動。
By reason of your multitude of his horses their dust shall cover you, and by reason of the sound of his horsemen and the wheels of his chariots the walls shall be shaken, when he enters into your gates, as one entering into a city from the plain.
11 他的馬蹄必踐踏你一切的街道;他必用刀殺戮你的居民。你堅固的柱子必倒在地上。
With the hoofs of his horses they shall trample all your streets: he shall kill your people with the sword, and shall bring down to the ground the support of your strength.
12 人必以你的財寶為擄物,以你的貨財為掠物,破壞你的牆垣,拆毀你華美的房屋,將你的石頭、木頭、塵土都拋在水中。
And he shall prey upon your power, and plunder your substance, and shall cast down your walls, and break down your pleasant houses: and he shall cast your stones and your timber and your dust into the midst of your sea.
13 我必使你唱歌的聲音止息;人也不再聽見你彈琴的聲音。
And he shall destroy the multitude of your musicians, and the sound of your lutes shall be heard no more.
14 我必使你成為淨光的磐石,作曬網的地方。你不得再被建造,因為這是主耶和華說的。」
And I will make you a bare rock: you shall be a place to spread nets upon; you shall be built no more: for I the Lord have spoken [it], says the Lord.
15 主耶和華對泰爾如此說:「在你中間行殺戮,受傷之人唉哼的時候,因你傾倒的響聲,海島豈不都震動嗎?
For thus says the Lord God to Sor; Shall not the isles shake at the sound of your fall, while the wounded are groaning, while they have drawn a sword in the midst of you?
16 那時靠海的君王必都下位,除去朝服,脫下花衣,披上戰兢,坐在地上,時刻發抖,為你驚駭。
And all the princes of the nations of the sea shall come down from their thrones, and shall take off their crowns from their heads, and shall take off their embroidered raiment: they shall be utterly amazed; they shall sit upon the ground, and fear their [own] destruction, and shall groan over you.
17 他們必為你作起哀歌說: 你這有名之城, 素為航海之人居住, 在海上為最堅固的; 平日你和居民使一切住在那裏的人無不驚恐; 現在何竟毀滅了?
And they shall take up a lamentation for you, and shall say to you, How are you destroyed from out of the sea, the renowned city, that brought her terror upon all her inhabitants.
18 如今在你這傾覆的日子, 海島都必戰兢; 海中的群島見你歸於無有就都驚惶。」
And the isles shall be alarmed at the day of your fall.
19 主耶和華如此說:「泰爾啊,我使你變為荒涼,如無人居住的城邑;又使深水漫過你,大水淹沒你。
For thus says the Lord God; When I shall make the city desolate, as the cities that shall not be inhabited, when I have brought the deep up upon you,
20 那時,我要叫你下入陰府,與古時的人一同在地的深處、久已荒涼之地居住,使你不再有居民。我也要在活人之地顯榮耀。
and great waters shall cover you; and I shall bring you down to them that go down to the pit, to the people of old time, and shall cause you to dwell in the depths of the earth, as in everlasting desolation, with them that go down to the pit, that you may not be inhabited, nor stand upon the land of life;
21 我必叫你令人驚恐,不再存留於世;人雖尋找你,卻永尋不見。這是主耶和華說的。」
I will make you a destruction, and you shall be no more for ever, says the Lord God.
