< Ezekiel 26 >

1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first of the month, that the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
第十一年十一月初一日,耶和華的話臨到我說:
2 Son of man, Because Tyre hath said concerning Jerusalem. Aha! She is broken that was the doors of the peoples. She is turned unto me, — I shall be filled, She is laid waste,
「人子啊,因泰爾向耶路撒冷說:『阿哈,那作眾民之門的已經破壞,向我開放;她既變為荒場,我必豐盛。』
3 Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Behold me! against thee O Tyre, — So then I will bring up against thee many nations, As the sea bringeth up its rolling waves;
所以,主耶和華如此說:泰爾啊,我必與你為敵,使許多國民上來攻擊你,如同海使波浪湧上來一樣。
4 And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre. And break down her towers, And I will scrape clean her dust from off her, —And make of her the glaring face of a cliff:
他們必破壞泰爾的牆垣,拆毀她的城樓。我也要刮淨塵土,使她成為淨光的磐石。
5 A place for the spreading of nets, shall she become, in the midst of the sea, For, I, have spoken Declareth My Lord. Yahweh, -And she shall become a prey to the nations.
她必在海中作曬網的地方,也必成為列國的擄物。這是主耶和華說的。
6 And her daughters that are in the field: with the sword shall be slain: So shall they know that I am Yahweh.
屬泰爾城邑的居民必被刀劍殺滅,他們就知道我是耶和華。」
7 For thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, Behold me! bringing against Tyre. Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon out of the North. a king of kings, —with horses and with chariots and with horsemen, and a gathered host, and much people.
主耶和華如此說:「我必使諸王之王的巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒率領馬匹車輛、馬兵、軍隊,和許多人民從北方來攻擊你泰爾。
8 Thy daughters in the field—with the sword, shall he slay, - And shall set against thee a siege-wall And cast up against thee an earthwork, And set up against thee a large shield;
他必用刀劍殺滅屬你城邑的居民,也必造臺築壘舉盾牌攻擊你。
9 And the stroke of his attacking-engine, will he direct against thy walls, — And thy towers, will he break down with his axes.
他必安設撞城錘攻破你的牆垣,用鐵器拆毀你的城樓。
10 By reason of the multitude of his horses, their dust shall cover thee, — At the noise of horseman and wheel and chariot, shall thy walls tremble, when he entereth into thy gates Just as they do who enter a city broken open.
因他的馬匹眾多,塵土揚起遮蔽你。他進入你的城門,好像人進入已有破口之城。那時,你的牆垣必因騎馬的和戰車、輜重車的響聲震動。
11 With the hoofs of his horses, shall he tread down all thy streets, — Thy people-with the sword, shall he slay, And thy pillars of strength to the earth, shall go down.
他的馬蹄必踐踏你一切的街道;他必用刀殺戮你的居民。你堅固的柱子必倒在地上。
12 And they shall spoil thy wealth And make a prey of thy merchandise, And break down thy walls And thy pleasant houses, shall they lay in ruins; And thy stones and thy timber and thy dust—in the midst of the waters, shall they lay.
人必以你的財寶為擄物,以你的貨財為掠物,破壞你的牆垣,拆毀你華美的房屋,將你的石頭、木頭、塵土都拋在水中。
13 And I will cause to cease the hum of thy songs; And the sound of thy lyres, shall not be heard any more.
我必使你唱歌的聲音止息;人也不再聽見你彈琴的聲音。
14 And I will make of thee the glaring face of a cliff. A place for the spreading of nets, shalt thou become, Thou shalt not be but any more, For I. Yahweh have spoken it, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
我必使你成為淨光的磐石,作曬網的地方。你不得再被建造,因為這是主耶和華說的。」
15 Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, to Tyre: Shall it not be that. At the sound of thy fall. With the groan of thy pierced one. With the slaughter made in thy midst, The Coastlands shall tremble?
主耶和華對泰爾如此說:「在你中間行殺戮,受傷之人唉哼的時候,因你傾倒的響聲,海島豈不都震動嗎?
16 Then shall come down from off their thrones all the princes of the sea, And shall lay aside their robes. And their embroidered garments, shall strip off, — With tremblings, shall they clothe them. selves Upon the ground, shall they sit, And shall tremble every moment and be astonished over thee.
那時靠海的君王必都下位,除去朝服,脫下花衣,披上戰兢,坐在地上,時刻發抖,為你驚駭。
17 Then shall they take up over thee a dirge, And say to thee, - How hast thou perished, And ceased from the seas, - The city renowned which was strong in the sea She and they who dwelt in her, Who imparted their terror To all who dwelt in her.
他們必為你作起哀歌說: 你這有名之城, 素為航海之人居住, 在海上為最堅固的; 平日你和居民使一切住在那裏的人無不驚恐; 現在何竟毀滅了?
18 Now, shall tremble the Coastlands, In the day of thy fall, - And shall shudder the isles that are in the sea. At thine exit!
如今在你這傾覆的日子, 海島都必戰兢; 海中的群島見你歸於無有就都驚惶。」
19 For thus saith My Lord Yahweh, When I make thee a desolate city, Like cities which cannot be dwelt in, - When I bring up over thee the roaring deep, And the mighty waters cover thee,
主耶和華如此說:「泰爾啊,我使你變為荒涼,如無人居住的城邑;又使深水漫過你,大水淹沒你。
20 Then will I bring thee down with them that go down into the pit. Unto the people of age-past times And cause thee to dwell in the earth below Among the desolations from age-past times With them that go down into the pit That thou mayest not be dwelt in, Nor yet present thyself in the land of the living.
那時,我要叫你下入陰府,與古時的人一同在地的深處、久已荒涼之地居住,使你不再有居民。我也要在活人之地顯榮耀。
21 A terror, will I make thee And thou shalt not be: Though thou be sought for, Thou shalt not be found any more To times age-abiding, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.
我必叫你令人驚恐,不再存留於世;人雖尋找你,卻永尋不見。這是主耶和華說的。」
