Ezekiel 23
1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
2 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother:
人子，有兩個女人，同是一母的女兒，
3 and they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they bruised the teats of their virginity.
她們在埃及行過淫，年輕時當過娼，在那裏有人撫弄過她們的乳房，在那裏有人糟蹋了她們的童身。
4 And the names of them were Oholah the elder, and Oholibah her sister: and they became mine, and they bare sons and daughters. And as for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem Oholibah.
她們的名字，大的叫敖曷拉，她妹妹叫敖曷里巴。她們本來屬於我，也給我生了子女。至於她們的名字：敖曷拉是指撒瑪黎雅，敖曷里巴是指耶路撒冷。
5 And Oholah played the harlot when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians [her] neighbours,
敖曷拉屬我時，已行邪淫，戀愛了她的情人，鄰邦亞述人，
6 which were clothed with blue, governors and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding upon horses.
即那穿紫紅衣服的將領和公卿，全是英俊的青年，善於騎馬的騎士。
7 And she bestowed her whoredoms upon them, the choicest men of Assyria all of them: and on whomsoever she doted, with all their idols she defiled herself.
於是她與所有的亞述青年行淫，並為她所戀愛的情人及其偶像所玷污。
8 Neither hath, she left her whoredoms since [the days of] Egypt; for in her youth they lay with her, and they bruised the teats of her virginity: and they poured out their whoredom upon her.
但她仍沒有放棄埃及的淫蕩，因為他們在她青年時曾同她共寢過，糟蹋過她的童身，在她身上發洩過淫慾。
9 Wherefore I delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted.
為此我把她交在她情人手中，即她所熱戀的亞述人手中。
10 These discovered her nakedness: they took her sons and her daughters, and her they slew with the sword: and she became a byword among women; for they executed judgments upon her.
他們必要揭露她的私處，擄去她的子女，用刀把她殺死：如此，因所加於她身上的懲罰，她成了婦女的警戒。
11 And her sister Oholibah saw this, yet was she more corrupt in her doting than she, and in her whoredoms which were more than the whoredoms of her sister.
她妹妹敖曷里巴雖看見了這一切，但她的情慾更甚於她姐姐，她的淫亂也遠超過她姐姐的淫亂。
12 She doted upon the Assyrians, governors and rulers, [her] neighbours, clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding upon horses, all of them desirable young men.
她也戀愛那些身為將領公卿的鄰邦亞述子民，他們都是衣著華美，善於騎馬的騎士，而且都是英俊的青年。
13 And I saw that she was defiled; they both took one way.
我也見了她受玷污，她們兩的行徑完全一樣。
14 And she increased her whoredoms; for she saw men pourtrayed upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans pourtrayed with vermilion,
她的淫行有增無減。當她看見繪畫在牆上的人──用丹青繪畫的加色丁人像，
15 girded with girdles upon their loins, exceeding in dyed attire upon their heads, all of them princes to look upon, after the likeness of the Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their nativity.
腰間束著佩帶，頭上纏著突出的頭巾，都有軍官的模樣，相似巴比倫人，加色丁即是他們的出生地──
16 And as soon as she saw them she doted upon them, and sent messengers unto them into Chaldea.
她的眼一看見，就愛上了他們，遣派使者往加色丁，到他們那裏去。
17 And the Babylonians came to her into the bed of love; and they defiled her with their whoredom, and she was polluted with them, and her soul was alienated from them.
巴比倫人一來到她那裏，登上愛情的床，行了淫，玷污了她；她所玷污之後，遂即厭棄了他們。
18 So she discovered her whoredoms, and discovered her nakedness: then my soul was alienated from her, like as my soul was alienated from her sister.
她既暴露了自己的淫行，揭開了自己的私處，因此我也厭棄她，如同厭棄她姐姐一樣。
19 Yet she multiplied her whoredoms, remembering the days of her youth, wherein she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt.
她又想念年輕時在埃及行淫的日子，遂增強了她的淫慾。
20 And she doted upon their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue is like the issue of horses.
她仍戀愛體壯似驢，精足似馬的情人。
21 Thus thou calledst to remembrance the lewdness of thy youth, in the bruising of thy teats by the Egyptians for the breasts of thy youth.
於是你渴望你年輕時的淫行，那時埃及人曾撫摸過你的胸懷，撫弄過你青春的乳房。
22 Therefore, O Oholibah, thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will raise up thy lovers against thee, from whom thy soul is alienated, and I will bring them against thee on every side;
因此，敖曷里巴! 吾主上主這樣說：看，我要鼓動你所厭棄的情人來攻擊你，引他們從四周來攻擊你，
23 the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, [and] all the Assyrians with them: desirable young men, governors and rulers all of them, princes and men of renown, all of them riding upon horses.
即巴比倫人和一切加色丁人，培科得、芍亞和科亞，以及一切同他們聯合的亞述人，英俊的青年，一切長官和公卿、軍官和將領，一切善於騎馬的人。
24 And they shall come against thee with weapons, chariots, and wagons, and with an assembly of peoples; they shall set themselves against thee with buckler and shield and helmet round about: and I will commit the judgment unto them, and they shall judge thee according to their judgments.
他們率領大軍、車輛和輜重車，大隊士卒，都佩著甲、盾和盔，由四周攻擊你。我讓他們處罰你，照他們的法律判決你。
25 And I will set my jealousy against thee, and they shall deal with thee in fury: they shall take away thy nose and thine ears; and thy residue shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons and thy daughters; and thy residue shall be devoured by the fire.
如此，我要在你身上發洩我的妒火，讓他們以憤怒待你，割去你的鼻子和耳朵；其餘的都死於刀下；他們還要擄去你的子女，餘下的都為火燒死。
26 They shall also strip thee of thy clothes, and take away thy fair jewels.
他們還要剝光你的衣服，奪去你的裝飾品。
27 Thus will I make thy lewdness to cease from thee, and thy whoredom [brought] from the land of Egypt: so that thou shalt not lift up thine eyes unto them, nor remember Egypt any more.
這樣，我才消除你心中的淫蕩，和由埃及地開始的淫行，使你再不敢舉目看他們，再不想念埃及。
28 For thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hand of them whom thou hatest, into the hand of them from whom thy soul is alienated:
因為吾主上主這樣說：看，我要將你交在你所惱恨的人手中，和你所厭惡的人手中。
29 and they shall deal with thee in hatred, and shall take away all thy labour, and shall leave thee naked and bare: and the nakedness of thy whoredoms shall be discovered, both thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.
他們要以惱恨對待你，奪去你的一切財物，赤身露體的拋棄你：因此你放蕩的私處，好色和淫亂都要暴露出來。
30 These things shall be done unto thee, for that thou hast gone a whoring after the heathen, and because thou art polluted with their idols.
他們這樣對待你，是因為你同異民行了淫，受了他們偶像的玷污。
31 Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister; therefore will I give her cup into thine hand.
你既然走了你姐姐的路，我也要把她的苦爵放在你手中。
32 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Thou shalt drink of thy sister’s cup, which is deep and large: thou shalt be laughed to scorn and had in derision; it containeth much.
吾主上主這樣說：你要喝你姐姐又深又大，容量又多的苦爵，你要成為恥笑和辱罵的對象，
33 Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, with the cup of astonishment and desolation, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.
你要酩酊大醉，滿懷憂愁。你姐姐撒瑪黎雅的爵是驚惶和毀滅的爵，
34 Thou shalt even drink it and drain it out, and thou shalt gnaw the sherds thereof, and shalt tear thy breasts: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
你必要喝，且要喝盡，連渣滓也要吞下；你還要抓破你自己的乳房：這是我所說的──吾主上主的斷語──
35 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Because thou hast forgotten me, and cast me behind thy back, therefore bear thou also thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.
為此吾主上主這樣說：因為你忘了我，把我拋在背後，你也要親自承擔你好色和淫亂的懲罰。」
36 The LORD said moreover unto me: Son of man, wilt thou judge Oholah and Oholibah? then declare unto them their abominations.
上主對我說：「人子，你要審判敖曷拉和敖曷里巴，向她們說明她們的醜惡：
37 For they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands, and with their idols have they committed adultery; and they have also caused their sons, whom they bare unto me, to pass through [the fire] unto them to be devoured.
她們犯了姦淫，手上帶著殺人的血，同偶像犯了姦淫，還焚化了她們給我所生的子女，祭祀偶像。
38 Moreover this they have done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths.
此外，她們還對我行了這事：在那一天她們還玷污了我的聖所，褻瀆了我的安息日，
39 For when they had slain their children to their idols, then they came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it; and, lo, thus have they done in the midst of mine house.
因為當她們給她們的偶像祭殺自己的子女時，同一天也進了我的聖所，加以褻瀆。的確，她們在我聖殿中這樣行了。
40 And furthermore ye have sent for men that come from far: unto whom a messenger was sent, and, lo, they came; for whom thou didst wash thyself, paintedst thine eyes, and deckedst thyself with ornaments;
並且他們還想從遠方召人來，便遣使者到他們那裏。看，他們果然來了，你就為了他們而沐浴，畫眼，佩戴珠寶。
41 and satest upon a stately bed. with a table prepared before it, whereupon thou didst set mine incense and mine oil.
以後你坐在華麗的床上，床前安放桌子，上面擺上本來獻給我的香和油。
42 And the voice of a multitude being at ease was with her: and with men of the common sort were brought drunkards from the wilderness; and they put bracelets upon the hands of them [twain], and beautiful crowns upon their heads.
在她那裏可以聽到曠野來的群眾的歡樂嘈雜聲，他們在她們姐妹的腕上帶上鐲子，在她們頭上戴上花冠。
43 Then said I of her that was old in adulteries, Now will they commit whoredoms with her, and she [with them].
那時我就關於這老淫婦說：現今她當然又要去行淫。
44 And they went in unto her, as they go in unto an harlot: so went they in unto Oholah and unto Oholibah, the lewd women.
的確，人都到她們那裏，就如到娼妓那裏，也照樣到淫婦敖曷拉和敖曷里巴那裏。
45 And righteous men, they shall judge them with the judgment of adulteresses, and with the judgment of women that shed blood; because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.
但正義的人必要裁判她們，如裁判姦婦和流血的人，因為她們是姦婦，血還在她們手上。
46 For thus saith the Lord GOD: I will bring up an assembly against them, and will give them to be tossed to and fro and spoiled.
因為吾主上主這樣說：我要使許多人來攻擊她們，叫她們飽受虐待並遭受搶掠。
47 And the assembly shall stone them with stones, and despatch them with their swords; they shall slay their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire.
這群人要用石頭砸死她們，用刀砍碎她們，屠殺她們的子女，火燒她們的房屋。
48 Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness.
如此，我要把淫亂由此地剷除，使所有的婦女受到警戒，不敢效法你們的淫行。
49 And they shall recompense your lewdness upon you, and ye shall bear the sins of your idols: and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
我要使你們的淫行歸在你們身上。承擔敬拜偶像的罪罰：如此，你們纔承認我是上主。
