Ezekiel 12
1 The worde of the Lord also came vnto me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
2 Sonne of man, thou dwellest in the middes of a rebellious house, which haue eyes to see, and see not: they haue eares to heare, and heare not: for they are a rebellious house.
人子，你是住在叛逆的家族中，他們有眼，卻視而不見；有耳，卻聽而不聞；因為他們是叛逆的家族。
3 Therefore thou sonne of man, prepare thy stuffe to goe into captiuitie, and goe foorth by day in their sight: and thou shalt passe from thy place to another place in their sight, if it be possible that they may consider it: for they are a rebellious house.
人子，你要白天在他們眼前準備充軍的行囊，並在他們眼前從一地遷移到另一地；他們或者能看清自己是叛逆的家族。
4 Then shalt thou bring foorth thy stuffe by day in their sight as the stuffe of him that goeth into captiuitie: and thou shalt go forth at euen in their sight, as they that go foorth into captiuitie.
你白天在他們眼前把行囊搬出，像搬出充軍的行囊；傍晚在他們眼前出發，像充軍者出發。
5 Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and cary out thereby.
你還要在他們眼前在牆上穿一個洞，由那裏走過去。
6 In their sight shalt thou beare it vpon thy shoulders, and carie it foorth in the darke: thou shalt couer thy face that thou see not the earth: for I haue set thee as a signe vnto the house of Israel.
你當著他們的面，把行囊背在肩上，天黑時出發，並且蒙著臉，看不到地面：因為我要使你作為以色列家族的一個預兆。」
7 And as I was commanded, so I brought forth my stuffe by day, as ye stuffe of one that goeth into captiuitie: and by night I digged through the wall with mine hand, and brought it forth in ye darke, and I bare it vpon my shoulder in their sight.
我遂遵命行了：白天我把行囊搬出，有如充軍的行囊，傍晚用手在牆上穿了一個洞；到天黑時，當著他們的面，把行囊背在肩上出發。
8 And in the morning came the word of the Lord vnto me, saying,
到了早晨，上主的話傳給我說：「
9 Sonne of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, sayde vnto thee, What doest thou?
人子，以色列家族，那叛逆的家族不是問你說：你在作什麼﹖
10 But say thou vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God, This burden concerneth the chiefe in Ierusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.
你要回答他們說：吾主上主這樣說：這神諭是有關耶路撒冷的君王和城中的以色列全家族。
11 Say, I am your signe: like as I haue done, so shall it be done vnto them: they shall goe into bondage and captiuitie.
並且說：我為你們是一個預兆：像我所行過的，也要實現在他們身上：他們要被擄充軍異地。
12 And the chiefest that is among them, shall beare vpon his shoulder in the darke, and shall goe forth: they shall digge through the wall, to cary out thereby: he shall couer his face, that he see not the ground with his eies.
君王在他們當中肩上背著重擔，在黑夜出發，在牆上要穿一洞，為叫他出去；他要蒙著臉，以致他再不能親眼看見這地方。
13 My net also will I spread vpon him, and he shall be taken in my net, and I will bring him to Babel to the lande of the Caldeans, yet shall he not see it, though he shall dye there.
我要在他面前設下羅網，他必要陷在我的羅網中而被捉住；然後我他到加色丁人的地方巴比倫，但他一無所見，就死在那裏。
14 And I will scatter toward euerie winde all that are about him to helpe him, and all his garisons, and I will drawe out the sworde after them.
我還要把他左右的護衛，以及一切軍隊，分散到四方，並拔出劍來追趕他們。
15 And they shall knowe that I am the Lord, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countreis.
當我把他們驅散到異民中，把他們分散到各國時，他們必承認我是上主。
16 But I will leaue a litle nomber of them from the sworde, from the famine, and from the pestilence, that they may declare all these abominations among the heathen, where they come, and they shall knowe, that I am the Lord.
但我在他們中仍保留少數的人，免受刀兵、饑荒和瘟疫之害，為叫他們給他們所到之地的異民，講述自己的醜惡之事，使那些人也認識我是上主。」
17 Moreouer, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
18 Sonne of man, eate thy bread with trembling and drinke thy water with trouble, and with carefulnesse,
人子，你要戰戰兢兢地吃飯，懷著顫慄和惶恐喝水。
19 And say vnto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord God of the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and of the lande of Israel, They shall eate their bread with carefulnes, and drinke their water with desolation: for the lande shall bee desolate from her abundance because of the crueltie of them that dwell therein.
你應向此地的人民宣講說：吾主上主論及耶路撒冷的居民和以色列地域這樣說：他們要惶恐地吃飯，驚懼地喝水，為了那裏的居民所行的殘暴，那地方要被洗劫，變為荒蕪之地。
20 And the cities that are inhabited, shall be left voyde, and the land shall be desolate, and yee shall knowe that I am the Lord.
人煙稠密的城市要變為曠野，那地方必變為沙漠：如此，你們必承認我是上主。」
21 And the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
22 Sonne of man, what is that prouerbe that you haue in the land of Israel, saying, The dayes are prolonged and all visions faile?
人子，在以色列地域，有人說：日期遲延了，異象落空了。這流言是什麼意思﹖
23 Tell them therefore, Thus sayeth the Lord God, I wil make this prouerbe to cease, and they shall no more vse it as a prouerbe in Israel: but say vnto them, The daies are at hand and the effect of euery vision.
為此你應向他們說：吾主上主這樣說：我必使這流言停止，以色列必不再說這流言；你該向他們說：日期近了，所有的異象必要實現。
24 For no vision shall be any more in vaine, neither shall there bee any flattering diuination within the house of Israel.
在以色列家族內，決不再有虛偽的異象和欺詐的預言。
25 For I am the Lord: I wil speake, and that thing that I shall speake, shall come to passe: it shall be no more prolonged: for in your dayes, O rebellious house, will I saye the thing, and will performe it, sayeth the Lord God.
因為是我上主講話，我講的話必要實現，不再遲延。叛逆的家族! 我說的話必在你們這一代實現──吾主上主的斷語。」
26 Againe the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
27 Sonne of man, beholde, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that hee seeth, is for many dayes to come, and he prophecieth of the times that are farre off.
人子，以色列家族說：這人所見的異象是指遙遠的來日；他說的預言，是指遙遠的時期。
28 Therefore say vnto them, Thus sayth the Lord God, All my wordes shall no longer be delayed, but that thing which I haue spoken, shall be done, saith the Lord God.
為此你要向他們說：吾主上主這樣說：我說的一切話，不再遲延；我所說的話，必要實現──吾主上主的斷語。」
