Ezekiel 4
1 “And as for you, son of man, take up for yourself a tablet, and you shall set it before you. And you shall draw upon it the city of Jerusalem.
“人子啊，你要拿一块砖，摆在你面前，将一座耶路撒冷城画在其上，
2 And you shall set up a blockade against it, and you shall build fortifications, and you shall put together a rampart, and you shall encamp opposite it, and you shall place battering rams around it.
又围困这城，造台筑垒，安营攻击，在四围安设撞锤攻城，
3 And you shall take up for yourself an iron frying pan, and place it as an iron wall between you and the city. And harden your face against it, and it shall be under a siege, and you shall surround it. This is a sign to the house of Israel.
又要拿个铁鏊，放在你和城的中间，作为铁墙。你要对面攻击这城，使城被困；这样，好作以色列家的预兆。
4 And you shall sleep on your left side. And you shall place the iniquities of the house of Israel on it by the number of days that you will sleep on it. And you shall take upon yourself their iniquity.
“你要向左侧卧，承当以色列家的罪孽；要按你向左侧卧的日数，担当他们的罪孽。
5 For I have given to you the years of their iniquity, by the number of the days: three hundred and ninety days. And you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
因为我已将他们作孽的年数定为你向左侧卧的日数，就是三百九十日，你要这样担当以色列家的罪孽。
6 And when you will have completed this, you shall sleep a second time, on your right side, and you shall assume the iniquity of the house of Judah for forty days: one day for each year; one day, I say, for each year, have I given to you.
再者，你满了这些日子，还要向右侧卧，担当犹大家的罪孽。我给你定规侧卧四十日，一日顶一年。
7 And you shall turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and your arm shall be extended. And you shall prophesy against it.
你要露出膀臂，面向被困的耶路撒冷，说预言攻击这城。
8 Behold, I have surrounded you with chains. And you shall not turn yourself from one side to the other side, until you have completed the days of your siege.
我用绳索捆绑你，使你不能辗转，直等你满了困城的日子。
9 And you shall take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and vetch. And you shall set them in one vessel, and you shall make for yourself bread by the number of days that you will sleep upon your side: three hundred and ninety days shall you shall eat from it.
“你要取小麦、大麦、豆子、红豆、小米、粗麦，装在一个器皿中，用以为自己做饼；要按你侧卧的三百九十日吃这饼。
10 But your food, which you will eat, shall be in weight twenty staters a day. You shall eat it from time to time.
你所吃的要按分两吃，每日二十舍客勒，按时而吃。
11 And you shall drink water by measure, one sixth part of a hin. You shall drink it from time to time.
你喝水也要按制子，每日喝一欣六分之一，按时而喝。
12 And you shall eat it like barley bread baked under ashes. And you shall cover it, in their sight, with the dung that goes out of a man.”
你吃这饼像吃大麦饼一样，要用人粪在众人眼前烧烤。”
13 And the Lord said: “So shall the sons of Israel eat their bread, polluted among the Gentiles, to whom I will cast them out.”
耶和华说：“以色列人在我所赶他们到的各国中，也必这样吃不洁净的食物。”
14 And I said: “Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! Behold, my soul has not been polluted, and from my infancy even until now, I have not eaten anything that has died of itself, nor that which has been torn up by beasts, and no unclean flesh at all has entered into my mouth.”
我说：“哎！主耶和华啊，我素来未曾被玷污，从幼年到如今没有吃过自死的，或被野兽撕裂的，那可憎的肉也未曾入我的口。”
15 And he said to me: “Behold, I have given to you cow manure in place of human dung, and you shall make your bread with it.”
于是他对我说：“看哪，我给你牛粪代替人粪，你要将你的饼烤在其上。”
16 And he said to me: “Son of man, behold: I will crush the staff of bread in Jerusalem. And they will eat bread by weight and with anxiety. And they will drink water by measure and with anguish.
他又对我说：“人子啊，我必在耶路撒冷折断他们的杖，就是断绝他们的粮。他们吃饼要按分两，忧虑而吃；喝水也要按制子，惊惶而喝；
17 So then, when bread and water fail, each one may fall against his brother. And they shall waste away in their iniquities.”
使他们缺粮缺水，彼此惊惶，因自己的罪孽消灭。”
