以西結書 30
1 耶和華的話又臨到我說：
The word of YHWH came again to me, saying,
2 「人子啊，你要發預言說，主耶和華如此說： 哀哉這日！你們應當哭號。
"Son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says YHWH: "Wail, 'Alas for the day.'
3 因為耶和華的日子臨近， 就是密雲之日， 列國受罰之期。
For the day is near, even the day of YHWH is near; it shall be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.
4 必有刀劍臨到埃及； 在埃及被殺之人仆倒的時候， 古實人就有痛苦， 人民必被擄掠， 基址必被拆毀。
A sword shall come on Egypt, and anguish shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt; and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.
5 古實人、弗人、路德人、雜族的人民，並古巴人，以及同盟之地的人都要與埃及人一同倒在刀下。」
Ethiopia, and Put, and Lud, and all the mixed people, and Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, shall fall with them by the sword."'
6 耶和華如此說： 扶助埃及的也必傾倒。 埃及因勢力而有的驕傲必降低微； 其中的人民，從色弗尼塔起必倒在刀下。 這是主耶和華說的。
"Thus says YHWH: 'They also who uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword,' says YHWH.
7 埃及地在荒涼的國中必成為荒涼； 埃及城在荒廢的城中也變為荒廢。
'They shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate; and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
8 我在埃及中使火着起； 幫助埃及的，都被滅絕。 那時，他們就知道我是耶和華。
They shall know that I am YHWH, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.
9 「到那日，必有使者坐船，從我面前出去，使安逸無慮的古實人驚懼；必有痛苦臨到他們，好像埃及遭災的日子一樣。看哪，這事臨近了！
In that day shall messengers go forth from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid; and there shall be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, look, it comes.'
10 主耶和華如此說： 我必藉巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒的手， 除滅埃及眾人。
"Thus says YHWH: 'I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease, by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
11 他和隨從他的人， 就是列國中強暴的， 必進來毀滅這地。 他們必拔刀攻擊埃及， 使遍地有被殺的人。
He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought in to destroy the land; and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
12 我必使江河乾涸， 將地賣在惡人的手中； 我必藉外邦人的手， 使這地和其中所有的變為淒涼。 這是我－耶和華說的。
I will make the rivers dry, and will sell the land into the hand of evil men; and I will make the land desolate, and all that is in it, by the hand of strangers: I, YHWH, have spoken it.'
13 主耶和華如此說： 我必毀滅偶像， 從挪弗除滅神像； 必不再有君王出自埃及地。 我要使埃及地的人懼怕。
"Thus says YHWH: 'I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis; and there shall be no more a prince from the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14 我必使巴忒羅荒涼， 在瑣安中使火着起， 向挪施行審判。
I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments on No.
15 我必將我的忿怒倒在埃及的保障上， 就是訓上， 並要剪除挪的眾人。
I will pour my wrath on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No.
16 我必在埃及中使火着起； 訓必大大痛苦； 挪必被攻破； 挪弗白日見仇敵。
I will set a fire in Egypt: Sin shall be in great anguish, and No shall be broken up; and Memphis shall have adversaries in the daytime.
17 亞文和比伯實的少年人必倒在刀下； 這些城的人必被擄掠。
The young men of On and of Pi-beseth shall fall by the sword; and these cities shall go into captivity.
18 我在答比匿折斷埃及的諸軛， 使她因勢力而有的驕傲在其中止息。 那時，日光必退去； 至於這城，必有密雲遮蔽， 其中的女子必被擄掠。
At Tehaphnehes also the day shall withdraw itself, when I shall break there the yokes of Egypt, and the pride of her power shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.
19 我必這樣向埃及施行審判， 他們就知道我是耶和華。」
Thus will I execute judgments on Egypt; and they shall know that I am YHWH.'"
20 十一年正月初七日，耶和華的話臨到我說：
It happened in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of YHWH came to me, saying,
21 「人子啊，我已打折埃及王法老的膀臂；沒有敷藥，也沒有用布纏好，使他有力持刀。
"Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and look, it has not been bound up, to apply healing medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it be strong to hold the sword.
22 所以主耶和華如此說：看哪，我與埃及王法老為敵，必將他有力的膀臂和已打折的膀臂全行打斷，使刀從他手中墜落。
Therefore thus says YHWH: 'Look, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23 我必將埃及人分散在列國，四散在列邦。
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
24 我必使巴比倫王的膀臂有力，將我的刀交在他手中；卻要打斷法老的膀臂，他就在巴比倫王面前唉哼，如同受死傷的人一樣。
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 shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.
25 我必扶持巴比倫王的膀臂，法老的膀臂卻要下垂；我將我的刀交在巴比倫王手中，他必舉刀攻擊埃及地，他們就知道我是耶和華。
I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon; and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am YHWH, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out on the land of Egypt.
26 我必將埃及人分散在列國，四散在列邦；他們就知道我是耶和華。」
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them through the countries; and they shall know that I am YHWH.'"
