< Jezekiel 39 >
1 And you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus says the Lord; Behold, I am against you, O Gog, Rhos prince of Mesoch and Thobel:
「人子啊,你要向歌革發預言攻擊他,說主耶和華如此說:羅施、米設、土巴的王歌革啊,我與你為敵。
2 and I will assemble you, and guide you, and raise you up on the extremity of the north, and I will bring you up upon the mountains of Israel.
我必調轉你,領你前往,使你從北方的極處上來,帶你到以色列的山上。
3 And I will destroy the bow out of your left hand, and your arrows out of your right hand, and I will cast you down on the mountains of Israel;
我必從你左手打落你的弓,從你右手打掉你的箭。
4 and you and all that belong to you shall fall, and the nations that are with you shall be given to multitudes of birds, [even] to every fowl, and I have given you to all the wild beasts of the field to be devoured.
你和你的軍隊,並同着你的列國人,都必倒在以色列的山上。我必將你給各類的鷙鳥和田野的走獸作食物。
5 You shall fall on the face of the field: for I have spoken [it], says the Lord.
你必倒在田野,因為我曾說過。這是主耶和華說的。
6 And I will send a fire upon Gog, and the islands shall be securely inhabited: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
我要降火在瑪各和海島安然居住的人身上,他們就知道我是耶和華。
7 And my holy name shall be known in the midst of my people Israel; and my holy name shall no more be profaned: and the nations shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy [One] in Israel.
「我要在我民以色列中顯出我的聖名,也不容我的聖名再被褻瀆,列國人就知道我是耶和華-以色列中的聖者。
8 Behold it is come, and you shall know that it shall be, says the Lord God; this is the day concerning which I have spoken.
主耶和華說:這日事情臨近,也必成就,乃是我所說的日子。
9 And they that inhabit the cities of Israel shall come forth, and make a fire with the arms, the shields and the spears, and bows and arrows, and hand-staves, and lances, and they shall keep fire burning with them for seven years:
「住以色列城邑的人必出去撿器械,就是大小盾牌、弓箭、梃杖、槍矛,都當柴燒火,直燒七年,
10 and they shall not take any wood out of the field, neither shall they cut any out of the forests, but they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall plunder those that plundered them, and spoil those that spoiled them, says the Lord.
甚至他們不必從田野撿柴,也不必從樹林伐木;因為他們要用器械燒火,並且搶奪那搶奪他們的人,擄掠那擄掠他們的人。這是主耶和華說的。」
11 And it shall come to pass [that] in that day I will give to Gog a place of renown, a tomb in Israel, the burial-place of them that approach the sea: and they shall build round about the outlet of the valley, and there they shall bury Gog and all his multitude: and [the place] shall then be called the burial-place of Gog.
「當那日,我必將以色列地的谷,就是海東人所經過的谷,賜給歌革為墳地,使經過的人到此停步。在那裏人必葬埋歌革和他的群眾,就稱那地為哈們‧歌革谷。
12 And the house of Israel shall bury them, that the land may be cleansed in the space of seven months.
以色列家的人必用七個月葬埋他們,為要潔淨全地。
13 Yes, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a [place] of renown in the day wherein it was glorified, says the Lord.
全地的居民都必葬埋他們。當我得榮耀的日子,這事必叫他們得名聲。這是主耶和華說的。
14 And they shall appoint men continually to go over the land, to bury them that have been left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it after the space of seven months, and they shall seek [them] out.
他們必分派人時常巡查遍地,與過路的人一同葬埋那剩在地面上的屍首,好潔淨全地。過了七個月,他們還要巡查。
15 And every one that goes through the land, and sees a man's bone, shall set up a mark by it, until the buriers shall have buried it in the valley, the burial place of Gog.
巡查遍地的人要經過全地,見有人的骸骨,就在旁邊立一標記,等葬埋的人來將骸骨葬在哈們‧歌革谷。
16 For the name of the city [shall be] Burial-place: so shall the land be cleansed.
他們必這樣潔淨那地,並有一城名叫哈摩那。
17 And you, son of man, say, Thus says the Lord; Say to every winged bird, and to all the wild beasts of the field, Gather yourselves, and come; gather yourselves from all [places] round about to my sacrifice, which I have made for you, [even] a great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel, and you shall eat flesh, and drink blood.
「人子啊,主耶和華如此說:你要對各類的飛鳥和田野的走獸說:你們聚集來吧,要從四方聚到我為你們獻祭之地,就是在以色列山上獻大祭之地,好叫你們吃肉、喝血。
18 You shall eat the flesh of mighty men, and you shall drink the blood of princes of the earth, rams, and calves and goats, and they are all fatted calves.
你們必吃勇士的肉,喝地上首領的血,就如吃公綿羊、羊羔、公山羊、公牛,都是巴珊的肥畜。
19 And you shall eat fat till you are full, and shall drink wine till you are drunken, of my sacrifice which I have prepared for you.
你們吃我為你們所獻的祭,必吃飽了脂油,喝醉了血。
20 And you shall be filled at my table, [eating] horse, and rider, and mighty man, and every warrior, says the Lord.
你們必在我席上飽吃馬匹和坐車的人,並勇士和一切的戰士。這是主耶和華說的。」
21 And I will set my glory among you, and all the nations shall see my judgment which I have wrought, and my hand which I have brought upon them.
「我必顯我的榮耀在列國中;萬民就必看見我所行的審判與我在他們身上所加的手。
22 And the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God, from this day and onwards.
這樣,從那日以後,以色列家必知道我是耶和華-他們的上帝。
23 And all the nations shall know that the house of Israel were led captive because of their sins, because they rebelled against me, and I turned away my face from them, and delivered them into the hands of their enemies, and they all fell by the sword.
列國人也必知道以色列家被擄掠是因他們的罪孽。他們得罪我,我就掩面不顧,將他們交在敵人手中,他們便都倒在刀下。
24 According to their uncleannesses and according to their transgressions did I deal with them, and I turned away my face from them.
我是照他們的污穢和罪過待他們,並且我掩面不顧他們。」
25 Therefore thus says the Lord God, Now will I turn back captivity in Jacob, and will have mercy on the house of Israel, and will be jealous for the sake of my holy name.
主耶和華如此說:「我要使雅各被擄的人歸回,要憐憫以色列全家,又為我的聖名發熱心。
26 And they shall bear their reproach, and the iniquity which they committed when they lived upon their land in peace. Yet there shall be none to terrify [them]
他們在本地安然居住,無人驚嚇,是我將他們從萬民中領回,從仇敵之地召來。我在許多國的民眼前,在他們身上顯為聖的時候,他們要擔當自己的羞辱和干犯我的一切罪。
27 when I have brought them back from the nations, and gathered them out of the countries of the nations: and I will be sanctified among them in the presence of the nations.
28 And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, when I have been manifested to them among the nations.
因我使他們被擄到外邦人中,後又聚集他們歸回本地,他們就知道我是耶和華-他們的上帝;我必不再留他們一人在外邦。
29 And I will no more turn away my face from them, because I have poured out my wrath upon the house of Israel, says the Lord God.
我也不再掩面不顧他們,因我已將我的靈澆灌以色列家。這是主耶和華說的。」
