< 以西結書 32 >

1 十二年十二月初一日,耶和華的話臨到我說:
And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 「人子啊,你要為埃及王法老作哀歌,說: 從前你在列國中,如同少壯獅子; 現在你卻像海中的大魚。 你衝出江河, 用爪攪動諸水, 使江河渾濁。
Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say to him, Thou art like a young lion of the nations, and thou [art] as a whale in the seas: and thou didst come forth with thy rivers, and disturb the waters with thy feet, and render their rivers foul.
3 主耶和華如此說: 我必用多國的人民, 將我的網撒在你身上, 把你拉上來。
Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will therefore spread out my net over thee with a company of many people; and they shall bring thee up in my net.
4 我必將你丟在地上, 拋在田野, 使空中的飛鳥都落在你身上, 使遍地的野獸吃你得飽。
Then will I leave thee upon the land, and I will cast thee forth upon the open field, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to remain upon thee, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee.
5 我必將你的肉丟在山間, 用你高大的屍首填滿山谷。
And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys with thy hight.
6 我又必用你的血澆灌你所游泳之地, 漫過山頂; 河道都必充滿。
I will also water with thy blood the land in which thou swimmest, [even] to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of thee.
7 我將你撲滅的時候, 要把天遮蔽, 使眾星昏暗, 以密雲遮掩太陽, 月亮也不放光。
And when I shall extinguish thee, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.
8 我必使天上的亮光都在你以上變為昏暗, 使你的地上黑暗。 這是主耶和華說的。
All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over thee, and set darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord GOD.
9 「我使你敗亡的風聲傳到你所不認識的各國。那時,我必使多民的心因你愁煩。
I will also vex the hearts of many people, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations, into the countries which thou hast not known.
10 我在許多國民和君王面前向你掄我的刀,國民就必因你驚奇,君王也必因你極其恐慌。在你仆倒的日子,他們各人為自己的性命時刻戰兢。」
Yes, I will make many people amazed at thee, and their kings shall be horribly afraid for thee, when I shall brandish my sword before them; and they shall tremble at [every] moment, every man for his own life, in the day of thy fall.
11 主耶和華如此說:「巴比倫王的刀必臨到你。
For thus saith the Lord God; The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon thee.
12 我必藉勇士的刀使你的眾民仆倒;這勇士都是列國中強暴的。 他們必使埃及的驕傲歸於無有; 埃及的眾民必被滅絕。
By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, the terrible of the nations, all of them: and they shall lay waste the pomp of Egypt, and all its multitude shall be destroyed.
13 我必從埃及多水旁除滅所有的走獸; 人腳獸蹄必不再攪渾這水。
I will destroy also all its beasts from beside the great waters; neither shall the foot of man disturb them any more, nor the hoofs of beasts disturb them.
14 那時,我必使埃及河澄清, 江河像油緩流。 這是主耶和華說的。
Then will I make their waters deep, and cause their rivers to run like oil, saith the Lord GOD.
15 我使埃及地變為荒廢淒涼; 這地缺少從前所充滿的, 又擊殺其中一切的居民。 那時,他們就知道我是耶和華。
When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, and the country shall be destitute of that of which it was full, when I shall smite all them that dwell in it, then shall they know that I [am] the LORD.
16 「人必用這哀歌去哀哭,列國的女子為埃及和她的群眾也必以此悲哀。這是主耶和華說的。」
This [is] the lamentation with which they shall lament her: the daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for her, [even] for Egypt, and for all her multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
17 十二年十二月十五日,耶和華的話臨到我說:
It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
18 「人子啊,你要為埃及群眾哀號,又要將埃及和有名之國的女子,並下坑的人,一同扔到陰府去。
Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, [even] her, and the daughters of the famous nations, to the nether parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
19 你埃及的美麗勝過誰呢? 你下去與未受割禮的人一同躺臥吧!
Whom dost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou laid with the uncircumcised.
20 他們必在被殺的人中仆到。她被交給刀劍,要把她和她的群眾拉去。
They shall fall in the midst of [them that are] slain by the sword: she is delivered to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes.
21 強盛的勇士要在陰間對埃及王和幫助他的說話;他們是未受割禮被殺的人,已經下去,躺臥不動。 (Sheol h7585)
The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of the grave with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised, slain by the sword. (Sheol h7585)
22 「亞述和她的眾民都在那裏,她民的墳墓在她四圍;他們都是被殺倒在刀下的。
Asshur [is] there and all her company: his graves [are] about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword:
23 他們的墳墓在坑中極深之處。她的眾民在她墳墓的四圍,都是被殺倒在刀下的;他們曾在活人之地使人驚恐。
Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is around her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who caused terror in the land of the living.
24 「以攔也在那裏,她的群眾在她墳墓的四圍,都是被殺倒在刀下、未受割禮而下陰府的;他們曾在活人之地使人驚恐,並且與下坑的人一同擔當羞辱。
There [is] Elam and all her multitude around her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit.
25 人給她和她的群眾在被殺的人中設立床榻。她民的墳墓在她四圍,他們都是未受割禮被刀殺的;他們曾在活人之地使人驚恐,並且與下坑的人一同擔當羞辱。以攔已經放在被殺的人中。
They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude: her graves [are] around him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit: he is put in the midst of [them that are] slain.
26 「米設、土巴,和她們的群眾都在那裏。她民的墳墓在她四圍,他們都是未受割禮被刀殺的;他們曾在活人之地使人驚恐。
There [is] Meshech, Tubal, and all her multitude: her graves [are] around him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though they caused their terror in the land of the living.
27 他們不得與那未受割禮仆倒的勇士一同躺臥;這些勇士帶着兵器下陰間,頭枕刀劍,骨頭上有本身的罪孽;他們曾在活人之地使勇士驚恐。 (Sheol h7585)
And they shall not lie with the mighty [that are] fallen of the uncircumcised, who are gone down to the grave, with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon their bones, though [they were] the terror of the mighty in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)
28 「法老啊,你必在未受割禮的人中敗壞,與那些被殺的人一同躺臥。
Yes, thou shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with [them that are] slain with the sword.
29 「以東也在那裏。她君王和一切首領雖然仗着勢力,還是放在被殺的人中;他們必與未受割禮的和下坑的人一同躺臥。
There [is] Edom, her kings, and all her princes, who with their might are laid by [them that were] slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.
30 「在那裏有北方的眾王子和一切西頓人,都與被殺的人下去。他們雖然仗着勢力使人驚恐,還是蒙羞。他們未受割禮,和被刀殺的一同躺臥,與下坑的人一同擔當羞辱。
There [are] the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, who are gone down with the slain; with their terror they are ashamed of their might; and they lie uncircumcised with [them that are] slain by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit.
31 「法老看見他們,便為他被殺的軍隊受安慰。這是主耶和華說的。
Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, [even] Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
32 我任憑法老在活人之地使人驚恐,法老和他的群眾必放在未受割禮和被殺的人中。這是主耶和華說的。」
For I have caused my terror in the land of the living: and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that are] slain with the sword, [even] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
