< Ezekiel 23 >
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying, “Son of man,
耶和华的话又临到我说:
2 Two women were daughters of one mother,
“人子啊,有两个女子,是一母所生,
3 And they go whoring in Egypt, They have gone whoring in their youth, There they have bruised their breasts, And there they have dealt with the loves of their virginity.
她们在埃及行邪淫,在幼年时行邪淫。她们在那里作处女的时候,有人拥抱她们的怀,抚摸她们的乳。
4 And their names [are] Aholah the older, And Aholibah her sister, And they are Mine, and bear sons and daughters. As for their names—Samaria [is] Aholah, And Jerusalem [is] Aholibah.
她们的名字,姊姊名叫阿荷拉,妹妹名叫阿荷利巴。她们都归于我,生了儿女。论到她们的名字,阿荷拉就是撒马利亚,阿荷利巴就是耶路撒冷。
5 And Aholah goes whoring under Me, and she lusts on her lovers, on the neighboring Assyrians,
“阿荷拉归我之后行邪淫,贪恋所爱的人,就是她的邻邦亚述人。
6 Clothed with blue—governors and prefects, All of them desirable young men, Horsemen, riding on horses,
这些人都穿蓝衣,作省长、副省长,都骑着马,是可爱的少年人。
7 And she gives her whoredoms on them, The choice of the sons of Asshur, All of them—even all on whom she lusted, She has been defiled by all their idols.
阿荷拉就与亚述人中最美的男子放纵淫行,她因所恋爱之人的一切偶像,玷污自己。
8 And she has not forsaken her whoredoms out of Egypt, For with her they lay in her youth, And they dealt with the loves of her virginity, And they pour out their whoredoms on her.
自从在埃及的时候,她就没有离开淫乱,因为她年幼作处女的时候,埃及人与她行淫,抚摸她的乳,纵欲与她行淫。
9 Therefore I have given her into the hand of her lovers, Into the hand of sons of Asshur on whom she lusted.
因此,我将她交在她所爱的人手中,就是她所恋爱的亚述人手中。
10 They have uncovered her nakedness, They have taken her sons and her daughters, And they have slain her by sword, And she is a name for women, And they have done judgments with her.
他们就露了她的下体,掳掠她的儿女,用刀杀了她,使她在妇女中留下臭名,因他们向她施行审判。
11 And her sister Aholibah sees, And she makes her unhealthy love more corrupt than she, And her whoredoms than the whoredoms of her sister.
“她妹妹阿荷利巴虽然看见了,却还贪恋,比她姊姊更丑;行淫乱比她姊姊更多。
12 She has lusted on sons of Asshur, Governors and prefects, Neighboring ones—clothed in perfection, Horsemen, riding on horses, All of them desirable young men.
她贪恋邻邦的亚述人,就是穿极华美的衣服,骑着马的省长、副省长,都是可爱的少年人。
13 And I see that she has been defiled, One way [is] to them both.
我看见她被玷污了,她姊妹二人同行一路。
14 And she adds to her whoredoms, And she sees men carved on the wall, Pictures of Chaldeans, carved with vermillion,
阿荷利巴又加增淫行,因她看见人像画在墙上,就是用丹色所画迦勒底人的像,
15 Girded with a girdle on their loins, Dyed attire spread out on their heads, The appearance of rulers—all of them, The likeness of sons of Babylon, Chaldea is the land of their birth.
腰间系着带子,头上有下垂的裹头巾,都是军长的形状,仿照巴比伦人的形象;他们的故土就是迦勒底。
16 And she lusts on them at the sight of her eyes, And sends messengers to them, to Chaldea.
阿荷利巴一看见就贪恋他们,打发使者往迦勒底去见他们。
17 And sons of Babylon come in to her, To the bed of loves, And they defile her with their whoredoms, And she is defiled with them, And her soul is alienated from them.
巴比伦人就来登她爱情的床,与她行淫玷污她。她被玷污,随后心里与他们生疏。
18 And she reveals her whoredoms, And she reveals her nakedness, And My soul is alienated from off her, As My soul was alienated from off her sister.
这样,她显露淫行,又显露下体;我心就与她生疏,像先前与她姊姊生疏一样。
19 And she multiplies her whoredoms, To remember the days of her youth, When she went whoring in the land of Egypt.
她还加增她的淫行,追念她幼年在埃及地行邪淫的日子,
20 And she lusts on their lovers, Whose flesh [is] the flesh of donkeys, And the emission of horses—their emission.
贪恋情人身壮精足,如驴如马。
21 You look after the wickedness of your youth, In dealing out of Egypt your loves, For the sake of the breasts of your youth.
这样,你就想起你幼年的淫行。那时,埃及人拥抱你的怀,抚摸你的乳。”
22 Therefore, O Aholibah, thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am stirring up your lovers against you, From whom your soul has been alienated, And have brought them in against you from all around.
阿荷利巴啊,主耶和华如此说:“我必激动你先爱而后生疏的人来攻击你。我必使他们来,在你四围攻击你。
23 Sons of Babylon, and of all Chaldea, Pekod, and Shoa, and Koa, All the sons of Asshur with them, Desirable young men, governors and prefects, All of them—rulers and proclaimed ones, All of them riding on horses.
所来的就是巴比伦人、迦勒底的众人、比割人、书亚人、哥亚人,同着他们的还有亚述众人,乃是作省长、副省长、作军长有名声的,都骑着马,是可爱的少年人。
24 And they have come in against you, With arms, rider, and wheel, And with an assembly of peoples; Buckler, and shield, and helmet, They set against you all around, And I have set judgment before them, They have judged you in their judgments.
他们必带兵器、战车、辎重车,率领大众来攻击你。他们要拿大小盾牌,顶盔摆阵,在你四围攻击你。我要将审判的事交给他们,他们必按着自己的条例审判你。
25 And I have set My jealousy against you, And they have dealt with you in fury, They turn aside your nose and your ears, And your posterity falls by sword, They take away your sons and your daughters, And your posterity is devoured by fire.
我必以忌恨攻击你;他们必以忿怒办你。他们必割去你的鼻子和耳朵;你遗留的人必倒在刀下。他们必掳去你的儿女;你所遗留的必被火焚烧。
26 And they have stripped you of your garments, And have taken your beautiful jewels.
他们必剥去你的衣服,夺取你华美的宝器。
27 And I have caused your wickedness to cease from you, And your whoredoms out of the land of Egypt, And you do not lift up your eyes to them, And you do not remember Egypt again.
这样,我必使你的淫行和你从埃及地染来的淫乱止息了,使你不再仰望亚述,也不再追念埃及。
28 For thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am giving you into a hand that you have hated, Into a hand from which you were alienated.
主耶和华如此说:我必将你交在你所恨恶的人手中,就是你心与他生疏的人手中。
29 And they have dealt with you in hatred, And they have taken all your labor, And they have left you naked and bare, And the nakedness of your whoredoms has been revealed, And the wickedness of your whoredoms.
他们必以恨恶办你,夺取你一切劳碌得来的,留下你赤身露体。你淫乱的下体,连你的淫行,带你的淫乱,都被显露。
30 To do these things to you, In your going whoring after nations, Because you have been defiled with their idols,
人必向你行这些事;因为你随从外邦人行邪淫,被他们的偶像玷污了。
31 You have walked in the way of your sister, And I have given her cup into your hand.
你走了你姊姊所走的路,所以我必将她的杯交在你手中。”
32 Thus said Lord YHWH: You drink the cup of your sister, The deep and the wide one (You are for laughter and for scorn), Abundant to contain.
主耶和华如此说: 你必喝你姊姊所喝的杯; 那杯又深又广,盛得甚多, 使你被人嗤笑讥刺。
33 You are filled with drunkenness and sorrow, A cup of astonishment and desolation, The cup of your sister Samaria.
你必酩酊大醉,满有愁苦, 喝干你姊姊撒马利亚的杯, 就是令人惊骇凄凉的杯。
34 And you have drunk it, and have drained [it], And you gnaw its earthen ware, And you pluck off your own breasts, For I have spoken, A declaration of Lord YHWH,
你必喝这杯,以致喝尽。 杯破又啃杯片, 撕裂自己的乳; 因为这事我曾说过。 这是主耶和华说的。
35 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Because you have forgotten Me, And you cast Me behind your back, Even you also bear your wickedness and your whoredoms.”
主耶和华如此说:“因你忘记我,将我丢在背后,所以你要担当你淫行和淫乱的报应。”
36 And YHWH says to me, “Son of man, Do you judge Aholah and Aholibah? Then declare their abominations to them.
耶和华又对我说:“人子啊,你要审问阿荷拉与阿荷利巴吗?当指出她们所行可憎的事。
37 For they have committed adultery, And blood [is] in their hands, They committed adultery with their idols, And also their sons whom they bore to Me, They caused to pass over to them for food.
她们行淫,手中有杀人的血,又与偶像行淫,并使她们为我所生的儿女经火烧给偶像。
38 Again, they have done this to Me, They defiled My sanctuary in that day, And they have defiled My Sabbaths.
此外,她们还有向我所行的,就是同日玷污我的圣所,干犯我的安息日。
39 And in their slaughtering their sons to their idols They also come into My sanctuary in that day to defile it, And behold, thus they have done in the midst of My house,
她们杀了儿女献与偶像,当天又入我的圣所,将圣所亵渎了。她们在我殿中所行的乃是如此。
40 And also that they send to men coming from afar, To whom a messenger is sent, And behold, they have come in for whom you have washed, Painted your eyes, and put on adornment.
“况且你们二妇打发使者去请远方人。使者到他们那里,他们就来了。你们为他们沐浴己身,粉饰眼目,佩戴妆饰,
41 And you have sat on a couch of honor, And a table arrayed before it, And placed My incense and My oil on it.
坐在华美的床上,前面摆设桌案,将我的香料膏油摆在其上。
42 And the voice of a multitude at ease [is] with her, And Sabeans from the wilderness are brought in to men of the common people, And they put bracelets on their hands, And a beautiful crown on their heads.
在那里有群众安逸欢乐的声音,并有粗俗的人和酒徒从旷野同来,把镯子戴在二妇的手上,把华冠戴在她们的头上。
43 And I say of the worn-out one in adulteries, Now they commit her whoredoms—she also!
“我论这行淫衰老的妇人说:现在人还要与她行淫,她也要与人行淫。
44 And they come in to her, As the coming in to a whorish woman, So they have come in to Aholah, And to Aholibah—the wicked women.
人与阿荷拉,并阿荷利巴二淫妇苟合,好像与妓女苟合。
45 As for righteous men, they judge them with the judgment of adulteresses, And the judgment of women shedding blood, For they [are] adulteresses, And blood [is] in their hands.
必有义人,照审判淫妇和流人血的妇人之例,审判她们;因为她们是淫妇,手中有杀人的血。”
46 For thus said Lord YHWH: Bring up an assembly against them, And give them to trembling and to spoiling.
主耶和华如此说:“我必使多人来攻击她们,使她们抛来抛去,被人抢夺。
47 And they have cast the stone of the assembly at them, And cut them with their swords, They slay their sons and their daughters, And they burn their houses with fire.
这些人必用石头打死她们,用刀剑杀害她们,又杀戮她们的儿女,用火焚烧她们的房屋。
48 And I have caused wickedness to cease from the land, And all the women have been instructed, And they do not do according to your wickedness.
这样,我必使淫行从境内止息,好叫一切妇人都受警戒,不效法你们的淫行。
49 And they have put your wickedness on you, And you bear the sins of your idols, And you have known that I [am] Lord YHWH!”
人必照着你们的淫行报应你们;你们要担当拜偶像的罪,就知道我是主耶和华。”
