< Ezekiel 12 >
1 The LORD’s word also came to me, saying,
耶和华的话又临到我说:
2 “Son of man, you dwell in the middle of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see, and do not see, who have ears to hear, and do not hear; for they are a rebellious house.
“人子啊,你住在悖逆的家中。他们有眼睛看不见,有耳朵听不见,因为他们是悖逆之家。
3 “Therefore, you son of man, prepare your baggage for moving, and move by day in their sight. You shall move from your place to another place in their sight. It may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house.
所以人子啊,你要预备掳去使用的物件,在白日当他们眼前从你所住的地方移到别处去;他们虽是悖逆之家,或者可以揣摩思想。
4 You shall bring out your baggage by day in their sight, as baggage for moving. You shall go out yourself at evening in their sight, as when men go out into exile.
你要在白日当他们眼前带出你的物件去,好像预备掳去使用的物件。到了晚上,你要在他们眼前亲自出去,像被掳的人出去一样。
5 Dig through the wall in their sight, and carry your baggage out that way.
你要在他们眼前挖通了墙,从其中将物件带出去。
6 In their sight you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it out in the dark. You shall cover your face, so that you do not see the land, for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel.”
到天黑时,你要当他们眼前搭在肩头上带出去,并要蒙住脸看不见地,因为我立你作以色列家的预兆。”
7 I did so as I was commanded. I brought out my baggage by day, as baggage for moving, and in the evening I dug through the wall with my hand. I brought it out in the dark, and bore it on my shoulder in their sight.
我就照着所吩咐的去行,白日带出我的物件,好像预备掳去使用的物件。到了晚上,我用手挖通了墙。天黑的时候,就当他们眼前搭在肩头上带出去。
8 In the morning, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
次日早晨,耶和华的话临到我说:
9 “Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, ‘What are you doing?’
“人子啊,以色列家,就是那悖逆之家,岂不是问你说:‘你做什么呢?’
10 “Say to them, ‘The Lord GOD says: “This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they are.”’
你要对他们说:‘主耶和华如此说:这是关乎耶路撒冷的君王和他周围以色列全家的预表。’
11 “Say, ‘I am your sign. As I have done, so will it be done to them. They will go into exile, into captivity.
你要说:‘我作你们的预兆:我怎样行,他们所遭遇的也必怎样,他们必被掳去。’
12 “‘The prince who is among them will bear his baggage on his shoulder in the dark, and will go out. They will dig through the wall to carry things out that way. He will cover his face, because he will not see the land with his eyes.
他们中间的君王也必在天黑的时候将物件搭在肩头上带出去。他们要挖通了墙,从其中带出去。他必蒙住脸,眼看不见地。
13 I will also spread my net on him, and he will be taken in my snare. I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet he will not see it, though he will die there.
我必将我的网撒在他身上,他必在我的网罗中缠住。我必带他到迦勒底人之地的巴比伦;他虽死在那里,却看不见那地。
14 I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him to help him, and all his bands. I will draw out the sword after them.
周围一切帮助他的和他所有的军队,我必分散四方,也要拔刀追赶他们。
15 “‘They will know that I am the LORD when I disperse them among the nations and scatter them through the countries.
我将他们四散在列国、分散在列邦的时候,他们就知道我是耶和华。
16 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 where they come. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
我却要留下他们几个人得免刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫,使他们在所到的各国中述说他们一切可憎的事,人就知道我是耶和华。”
17 Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
耶和华的话又临到我说:
18 “Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and with fearfulness.
“人子啊,你吃饭必胆战,喝水必惶惶忧虑。
19 Tell the people of the land, ‘The Lord GOD says concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem and the land of Israel: “They will eat their bread with fearfulness and drink their water in dismay, that her land may be desolate, and all that is therein, because of the violence of all those who dwell therein.
你要对这地的百姓说:主耶和华论耶路撒冷和以色列地的居民如此说,他们吃饭必忧虑,喝水必惊惶。因其中居住的众人所行强暴的事,这地必然荒废,一无所存。
20 The cities that are inhabited will be laid waste, and the land will be a desolation. Then you will know that I am the LORD.”’”
有居民的城邑必变为荒场,地也必变为荒废;你们就知道我是耶和华。”
21 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
耶和华的话临到我说:
22 “Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, ‘The days are prolonged, and every vision fails’?
“人子啊,在你们以色列地怎么有这俗语,说‘日子迟延,一切异象都落了空’呢?
23 Tell them therefore, ‘The Lord GOD says: “I will make this proverb to cease, and they will no more use it as a proverb in Israel;”’ but tell them, ‘“The days are at hand, and the fulfillment of every vision.
你要告诉他们说:‘主耶和华如此说:我必使这俗语止息,以色列中不再用这俗语。’你却要对他们说:‘日子临近,一切的异象必都应验。’
24 For there will be no more any false vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.
从此,在以色列家中必不再有虚假的异象和奉承的占卜。
25 For I am the LORD. I will speak, and the word that I speak will be performed. It will be no more deferred; for in your days, rebellious house, I will speak the word and will perform it,” says the Lord GOD.’”
我—耶和华说话,所说的必定成就,不再耽延。你们这悖逆之家,我所说的话必趁你们在世的日子成就。这是主耶和华说的。”
26 Again the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
耶和华的话又临到我说:
27 “Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, ‘The vision that he sees is for many days to come, and he prophesies of times that are far off.’
“人子啊,以色列家的人说:‘他所见的异象是关乎后来许多的日子,所说的预言是指着极远的时候。’
28 “Therefore tell them, ‘The Lord GOD says: “None of my words will be deferred any more, but the word which I speak will be performed,” says the Lord GOD.’”
所以你要对他们说:‘主耶和华如此说:我的话没有一句再耽延的,我所说的必定成就。这是主耶和华说的。’”
