Ezekiel 12
1 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
2 "Son of man, you dwell in the midst of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see, and do not see, who have ears to hear, and do not hear; 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, you son of man, prepare your stuff for moving, and move by day in their sight; and you shall move from your place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though 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 You shall bring forth your baggage by day in their sight, as baggage for exile; and you shall go forth yourself at even in their sight, as when men go forth into exile.
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 through the wall in their sight, and carry your stuff out that way.
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 you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it forth in the dark; you shall cover your face, so that you do not see the land: for I have set you for a sign to 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 I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for removing, and in the even I dug through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the dark, and bore it on 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 In the morning came the word of the LORD to me, saying,
到了早晨，上主的話傳給我說：「
9 "Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, 'What are you doing?'
人子，以色列家族，那叛逆的家族不是問你說：你在作什麼﹖
10 Say to them, 'Thus says the LORD: This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they are.'
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 sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done to them; they shall go into exile, into captivity.'
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 "The prince who is among them shall bear on his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth. He shall dig through the wall and carry it through: he shall cover his face, because he shall not see the land with his eyes.
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 on him, and he shall be taken in my snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die 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 I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword 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 They shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall disperse them among the nations, and scatter them through the countries.
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 leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the nations where they come; and they shall know 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 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
18 "Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and with fearfulness;
人子，你要戰戰兢兢地吃飯，懷著顫慄和惶恐喝水。
19 and tell the people of the land, 'Thus says the LORD concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with fearfulness, and drink their water in dismay, that her land may be desolate, and all that is in it, because of the violence of all those who dwell in it.
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 The cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be a desolation; and you shall know 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 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
22 "Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, 'The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?'
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 says the LORD: I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel'; but tell them, 'The days are at hand, and the fulfillment of every 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 there shall be no more any false vision nor flattering divination 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 will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall be performed; it shall be no more deferred: for in your days, rebellious house, will I speak the word, and will perform it,' says the LORD."
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 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
27 "Son of man, look, they of the house of Israel say, 'The vision that he sees is for many day to come, and he prophesies of times that are far 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 tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: None of my words shall be deferred any more, but the word which I shall speak shall be performed, says the LORD.'"
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。」
