以西結書 34
1 耶和華的話臨到我說：
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 「人子啊，你要向以色列的牧人發預言，攻擊他們，說，主耶和華如此說：禍哉！以色列的牧人只知牧養自己。牧人豈不當牧養群羊嗎？
“Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the shepherds of Israel, who only feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed their flock?
3 你們吃脂油、穿羊毛、宰肥壯的，卻不牧養群羊。
You eat the fat, wear the wool, and butcher the fattened sheep, but you do not feed the flock.
4 瘦弱的，你們沒有養壯；有病的，你們沒有醫治；受傷的，你們沒有纏裹；被逐的，你們沒有領回；失喪的，你們沒有尋找；但用強暴嚴嚴地轄制。
You have not strengthened the weak, healed the sick, bound up the injured, brought back the strays, or searched for the lost. Instead, you have ruled them with violence and cruelty.
5 因無牧人，羊就分散；既分散，便作了一切野獸的食物。
They were scattered for lack of a shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild beasts.
6 我的羊在諸山間、在各高岡上流離，在全地上分散，無人去尋，無人去找。
My flock went astray on all the mountains and every high hill. They were scattered over the face of all the earth, with no one to search for them or seek them out.’
7 「所以，你們這些牧人要聽耶和華的話。
Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:
8 主耶和華說：我指着我的永生起誓，我的羊因無牧人就成為掠物，也作了一切野獸的食物。我的牧人不尋找我的羊；這些牧人只知牧養自己，並不牧養我的羊。
‘As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, because My flock lacks a shepherd and has become prey and food for every wild beast, and because My shepherds did not search for My flock but fed themselves instead,
9 所以你們這些牧人要聽耶和華的話。
therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD!’
10 主耶和華如此說：我必與牧人為敵，必向他們的手追討我的羊，使他們不再牧放群羊；牧人也不再牧養自己。我必救我的羊脫離他們的口，不再作他們的食物。」
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will demand from them My flock and remove them from tending the flock, so that they can no longer feed themselves. For I will deliver My flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them.’
11 「主耶和華如此說：看哪，我必親自尋找我的羊，將牠們尋見。
For this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I Myself will search for My flock and seek them out.
12 牧人在羊群四散的日子怎樣尋找他的羊，我必照樣尋找我的羊。這些羊在密雲黑暗的日子散到各處，我必從那裏救回牠們來。
As a shepherd looks for his scattered sheep when he is among the flock, so I will look for My flock. I will rescue them from all the places to which they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness.
13 我必從萬民中領出牠們，從各國內聚集牠們，引導牠們歸回故土，也必在以色列山上－一切溪水旁邊、境內一切可居之處－牧養牠們。
I will bring them out from the peoples, gather them from the countries, and bring them into their own land. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines, and in all the settlements of the land.
14 我必在美好的草場牧養牠們。牠們的圈必在以色列高處的山上，牠們必在佳美之圈中躺臥，也在以色列山肥美的草場吃草。
I will feed them in good pasture, and the lofty mountains of Israel will be their grazing land. There they will lie down in a good grazing land; they will feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel.
15 主耶和華說：我必親自作我羊的牧人，使牠們得以躺臥。
I will tend My flock and make them lie down, declares the Lord GOD.
16 失喪的，我必尋找；被逐的，我必領回；受傷的，我必纏裹；有病的，我必醫治；只是肥的壯的，我必除滅，也要秉公牧養牠們。
I will seek the lost, bring back the strays, bind up the broken, and strengthen the weak; but the sleek and strong I will destroy. I will shepherd them with justice.’
17 「我的羊群哪，論到你們，主耶和華如此說：我必在羊與羊中間、公綿羊與公山羊中間施行判斷。
This is what the Lord GOD says to you, My flock: ‘I will judge between one sheep and another, between the rams and the goats.
18 你們這些肥壯的羊，在美好的草場吃草還以為小事嗎？剩下的草，你們竟用蹄踐踏了；你們喝清水，剩下的水，你們竟用蹄攪渾了。
Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture? Must you also trample the rest of the pasture with your feet? Is it not enough for you to drink the clear waters? Must you also muddy the rest with your feet?
19 至於我的羊，只得吃你們所踐踏的，喝你們所攪渾的。
Why must My flock feed on what your feet have trampled, and drink what your feet have muddied?’
20 「所以，主耶和華如此說：我必在肥羊和瘦羊中間施行判斷。
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says to them: ‘Behold, I Myself will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
21 因為你們用脅用肩擁擠一切瘦弱的，又用角牴觸，以致使牠們四散。
Since you shove with flank and shoulder, butting all the weak ones with your horns until you have scattered them abroad,
22 所以，我必拯救我的群羊不再作掠物；我也必在羊和羊中間施行判斷。
I will save My flock, and they will no longer be prey. I will judge between one sheep and another.
23 我必立一牧人照管他們，牧養他們，就是我的僕人大衛。他必牧養他們，作他們的牧人。
I will appoint over them one shepherd, My servant David, and he will feed them. He will feed them and be their shepherd.
24 我－耶和華必作他們的上帝，我的僕人大衛必在他們中間作王。這是耶和華說的。
I, the LORD, will be their God, and My servant David will be a prince among them. I, the LORD, have spoken.
25 「我必與他們立平安的約，使惡獸從境內斷絕，他們就必安居在曠野，躺臥在林中。
I will make with them a covenant of peace and rid the land of wild animals, so that they may dwell securely in the wilderness and sleep in the forest.
26 我必使他們與我山的四圍成為福源，我也必叫時雨落下，必有福如甘霖而降。
I will make them and the places around My hill a blessing. I will send down showers in season—showers of blessing.
27 田野的樹必結果，地也必有出產；他們必在故土安然居住。我折斷他們所負的軛，救他們脫離那以他們為奴之人的手；那時，他們就知道我是耶和華。
The trees of the field will give their fruit, and the land will yield its produce; My flock will be secure in their land. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bars of their yoke and delivered them from the hands that enslaved them.
28 他們必不再作外邦人的掠物，地上的野獸也不再吞吃他們；卻要安然居住，無人驚嚇。
They will no longer be prey for the nations, and the beasts of the earth will not consume them. They will dwell securely, and no one will frighten them.
29 我必給他們興起有名的植物；他們在境內不再為饑荒所滅，也不再受外邦人的羞辱，
And I will raise up for them a garden of renown, and they will no longer be victims of famine in the land or bear the scorn of the nations.
30 必知道我、耶和華－他們的上帝是與他們同在的，並知道他們－以色列家是我的民。這是主耶和華說的。
Then they will know that I, the LORD their God, am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are My people,’ declares the Lord GOD.
31 你們作我的羊，我草場上的羊，乃是以色列人，我也是你們的上帝。這是主耶和華說的。」
‘You are My flock, the sheep of My pasture, My people, and I am your God,’ declares the Lord GOD.”
