< Ezekiel 28 >

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
耶和華的話又臨到我說:
2 'Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyre: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Because thy heart is lifted up, and thou hast said: I am a god, I sit in the seat of God, in the heart of the seas; yet thou art man, and not God, though thou didst set thy heart as the heart of God —
「人子啊,你對泰爾君王說,主耶和華如此說: 因你心裏高傲,說:我是神; 我在海中坐神之位。 你雖然居心自比神, 也不過是人,並不是神!
3 Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel! there is no secret that they can hide from thee!
看哪,你比但以理更有智慧, 甚麼祕事都不能向你隱藏。
4 By thy wisdom and by thy discernment thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures;
你靠自己的智慧聰明得了金銀財寶, 收入庫中。
5 In thy great wisdom by thy traffic hast thou increased thy riches, and thy heart is lifted up because of thy riches —
你靠自己的大智慧和貿易增添資財, 又因資財心裏高傲。
6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Because thou hast set thy heart as the heart of God;
所以主耶和華如此說: 因你居心自比神,
7 Therefore, behold, I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations; and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.
我必使外邦人, 就是列國中的強暴人臨到你這裏; 他們必拔刀砍壞你用智慧得來的美物, 褻瀆你的榮光。
8 They shall bring thee down to the pit; and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain, in the heart of the seas.
他們必使你下坑; 你必死在海中, 與被殺的人一樣。
9 Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee: I am God? But thou art man, and not God, in the hand of them that defile thee.
在殺你的人面前你還能說「我是神」嗎? 其實你在殺害你的人手中, 不過是人,並不是神。
10 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers; for I have spoken, saith the Lord GOD.'
你必死在外邦人手中, 與未受割禮的人一樣, 因為這是主耶和華說的。」
11 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
耶和華的話臨到我說:
12 'Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say unto him: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Thou seal most accurate, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty,
「人子啊,你為泰爾王作起哀歌,說主耶和華如此說: 你無所不備, 智慧充足,全然美麗。
13 thou wast in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the carnelian, the topaz, and the emerald, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the carbuncle, and the smaragd, and gold; the workmanship of thy settings and of thy sockets was in thee, in the day that thou wast created they were prepared.
你曾在伊甸上帝的園中, 佩戴各樣寶石, 就是紅寶石、紅璧璽、金鋼石、 水蒼玉、紅瑪瑙、碧玉、 藍寶石、綠寶石、紅玉,和黃金; 又有精美的鼓笛在你那裏, 都是在你受造之日預備齊全的。
14 Thou wast the far-covering cherub; and I set thee, so that thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of stones of fire.
你是那受膏遮掩約櫃的基路伯; 我將你安置在上帝的聖山上; 你在發光如火的寶石中間往來。
15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till unrighteousness was found in thee.
你從受造之日所行的都完全, 後來在你中間又察出不義。
16 By the multitude of thy traffic they filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned; therefore have I cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God; and I have destroyed thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
因你貿易很多, 就被強暴的事充滿,以致犯罪, 所以我因你褻瀆聖地, 就從上帝的山驅逐你。 遮掩約櫃的基路伯啊, 我已將你從發光如火的寶石中除滅。
17 Thy heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness; I have cast thee to the ground, I have laid thee before kings, that they may gaze upon thee.
你因美麗心中高傲, 又因榮光敗壞智慧, 我已將你摔倒在地, 使你倒在君王面前, 好叫他們目睹眼見。
18 By the multitude of thine iniquities, in the unrighteousness of thy traffic, thou hast profaned thy sanctuaries; therefore have I brought forth a fire from the midst of thee, it hath devoured thee, and I have turned thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
你因罪孽眾多, 貿易不公, 就褻瀆你那裏的聖所。 故此,我使火從你中間發出,燒滅你, 使你在所有觀看的人眼前變為地上的爐灰。
19 All they that know thee among the peoples shall be appalled at thee; thou art become a terror, and thou shalt never be any more.'
各國民中,凡認識你的, 都必為你驚奇。 你令人驚恐, 不再存留於世,直到永遠。」
20 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
耶和華的話臨到我說:
21 'Son of man, set thy face toward Zidon, and prophesy against it,
「人子啊,你要向西頓預言攻擊她,
22 and say: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon, and I will be glorified in the midst of thee; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.
說主耶和華如此說: 西頓哪,我與你為敵, 我必在你中間得榮耀。 我在你中間施行審判、顯為聖的時候, 人就知道我是耶和華。
23 For I will send into her pestilence and blood in her streets; and the wounded shall fall in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
我必使瘟疫進入西頓, 使血流在她街上。 被殺的必在其中仆倒, 四圍有刀劍臨到她, 人就知道我是耶和華。」
24 And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor a piercing thorn of any that are round about them, that did have them in disdain; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
「四圍恨惡以色列家的人,必不再向他們作刺人的荊棘,傷人的蒺藜,人就知道我是主耶和華。」
25 Thus saith the Lord GOD: When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the nations, then shall they dwell in their own land which I gave to My servant Jacob.
主耶和華如此說:「我將分散在萬民中的以色列家招聚回來,向他們在列邦人眼前顯為聖的時候,他們就在我賜給我僕人雅各之地,仍然居住。
26 And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell safely; when I have executed judgments upon all those that have them in disdain round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God.'
他們要在這地上安然居住。我向四圍恨惡他們的眾人施行審判以後,他們要蓋造房屋,栽種葡萄園,安然居住,就知道我是耶和華-他們的上帝。」
