Ezekiel 28
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
上主的話傳給我說：「
2 “Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre: Thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, ‘I am God, and I sit in the chair of God, in the heart of the sea,’ though you are a man, and not God, and because you have presented your heart as if it were the heart of God:
人子，你要向提洛的王子說：吾主上主這樣說：因為你心高氣傲地說：『我是神，我在海心坐在神位上。』其實，你只是人，而不是神，你心中卻自以為是神。
3 Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is concealed from you.
看，至於明智，你勝過達尼爾，任何秘密都不能隱瞞你。
4 By your wisdom and prudence, you have made yourself strong, and you have acquired gold and silver for your storehouses.
你憑你的智慧和聰明發了財，把金銀儲滿你寶庫。
5 By the multitude of your wisdom, and by your business dealings, you have multiplied strength for yourself. And your heart has been exalted by your strength.
你在貿易上憑你的豐富智慧，不斷增加你的財富；因你的財富，你便心高氣傲，
6 Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted as if it were the heart of God,
為此吾主上主這樣說：因為你心中自以為是神，
7 for this reason, behold, I will lead over you foreigners, the most robust among the Gentiles. And they will bare their swords over the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your beauty.
為此，看我要率領外方人，即列國最蠻橫的人來攻打你，他們要拔出劍來攻擊你以智慧所得的美麗，玷污你的光華，
8 They will destroy you and pull you down. And you will die the death of those slain in the heart of the sea.
將你拋入深淵，使你在海中遭受慘死。
9 So then, will you speak, in the presence of those who are destroying you, before the hand of those who are killing you, saying, ‘I am God,’ though you are a man, and not God?
在殺戮你的面前，你還敢說『我是神』嗎﹖在擊殺你的人手中，你只是人，而不是神。
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hand of foreigners. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.”
你必在外方人手中死去，像未受割損的人死去一樣：這是我，上主說的──吾主上主的斷語。」
11 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: “Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre,
上主的話傳給我說：「
12 and you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord God: You were the seal of similitudes, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
人子，你要為提洛的王子唱哀歌，哀悼他說：吾主上主這樣說：你原是一個完美的的模型，滿備智慧，十分美觀。
13 You were with the delights of the Paradise of God. Every precious stone was your covering: sardius, topaz, and jasper, chrysolite, and onyx, and beryl, sapphire, and garnet, and emerald. The work of your beauty was of gold, and your fissures were ready in the day when you were formed.
你曾住在「伊甸」──天主的樂園內，有各種寶石作你的服飾，如赤玉、青玉、金鋼石、橄欖玉、紅瑪瑙、水蒼玉、藍玉、紫寶石、翡翠；衣邊和繡花是用金做的，在你受造的那天，都已準備好了。
14 You were a cherub, stretched out and protecting, and I stationed you on the holy mountain of God. You have walked in the midst of stones containing fire.
我曾立你為革魯賓，作光耀的守衛，在天主的聖山上，在烈火的石中往來。
15 You were perfect in your ways, from the day of your formation, until iniquity was found in you.
從你受造之日起，你的行為原是齊全的，直到你犯了罪之時。
16 By the multitude of your business dealings, your interior was filled with iniquity, and you sinned. And I cast you away from the mountain of God, and I perished you, O protecting cherub, from the midst of the stones containing fire.
因你生意興隆，你就充滿了欺壓，犯了重罪，因此我從天主的山上將你趕走，從烈火石中將你這作守衛的革魯賓剷除。
17 And your heart was exalted by your beauty; you have destroyed your own wisdom by your beauty. I have cast you to the ground. I have presented you before the face of kings, so that they may examine you.
你因美麗而心高氣傲，為了你的光耀，你失去了智慧，所以我要把你拋在地上，叫你在列王面前出醜。
18 You have defiled your sanctuaries, by the multitude of your iniquities and by the iniquity of your business dealings. Therefore, I will produce a fire from your midst, which will consume you, and I will make you into ashes upon the earth, in the sight of all who are watching you.
因你罪過眾多，因你經商不公，褻瀆了你的聖所，所以我要使火由你中間冒出，將你燒毀，在眾目昭彰之下，使你成為地上的塵埃。
19 All who gaze upon you among the Gentiles will be stupefied over you. You were made out of nothing, and you shall not be, forever.”
萬民中凡認識你的，都因你而驚駭。你將成為恐怖的對象，且永遠不復存在。」
20 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
上主的話傳給我說：「
21 “Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and you shall prophesy about it.
人子，你應面向漆冬，講預言攻擊她，
22 And you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Sidon, and I will be glorified in your midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have executed judgments in her, and when I will have been sanctified in her.
對她說：吾主上主這樣說：漆冬，看，我要攻擊你，在你中間受光榮；當我對她施行懲罰，對她顯示我的聖善時，他們必承認我是上主。
23 And I will send a pestilence upon her, and there will be blood in her streets. And they will fall, slain by the sword, on every side in her midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
我要在她境內散發瘟疫，使血傾流在街市上，刀劍由四周向她襲擊，傷亡的人橫臥在她中間：這樣，他們必承認我是上主。
24 And the house of Israel will no longer be a stumbling block of bitterness, nor a thorn bringing pain everywhere around them, to those who turn against them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”
以色列的四鄰中，為以色列家族再沒有刺人的荊棘和惱人的蒺藜，敢於輕視他們：這樣，他們必承認我是上主。」
25 Thus says the Lord God: “When I will have gathered together the house of Israel, from the peoples among whom they have been dispersed, I shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the Gentiles. And they shall live in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
吾主上主這樣說：「當我把分散在各民族中的以色列家族聚集起來時，我要在異民前，在他們身上顯示為聖：他們要住在我所賜予我僕人雅各伯的地域內。
26 And they shall live within it securely. And they shall build houses and plant vineyards. And they shall live in confidence, when I will have executed judgments upon all those who turn against them on every side. And they shall know that I am the Lord their God.”
他們要安全地住在那裏，建造房屋，栽植葡萄園；當我向一般輕視過他們的四鄰施行懲罰時，他們必平安地住在那裏。那麼他們必承認我，上主，是他們的天主。」
