Ezekiel 34
1 And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
上主的話傳給我說：「
2 Son of man, Prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, - Prophesy, and thou shalt say unto them, even to the shepherds— Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh— Alas! for the shepherds of Israel who have been tending, themselves, Is it not the flock that the shepherds should tend?
人子，你應說預言攻斥以色列的牧者，向他們講預言說：吾主上主這樣說：禍哉以色列的牧者! 你們只知牧養自己；牧人豈不應該牧養羊群﹖
3 The milk, ye do eat And with the wool, ye do clothe your- selves, The well-fed, ye do sacrifice, The flock, ye do not tend
你們吃羊奶，穿羊毛衣，宰肥羊，卻不牧養羊群：
4 The weak, have ye not strengthened And, the sick, have ye not healed. And the torn, have ye not bound up, And that which was driven out, have ye not brought back, And that which was straying, have ye not sought out; But with force, have ye ruled them and with rigour.
瘦弱的，你們不扶養；患病的，你們不醫治；受傷的，你們不包紮；迷路的，你們不領回；遺失的，你們不尋找，反而用強力和殘暴去管治他們。
5 And they were scattered, because there was no shepherd; And they became food for every wild beast of the field. So were they scattered.
因為沒有牧人，羊都四散了；羊四散後，便成了一切野獸的食物。
6 My sheep did wander through all the mountains, And over every high hill, - And over all the face of the land, were my sheep scattered, And there was none to inquire And none to seek out.
我的羊在群山峻嶺中迷了路，我的羊四散在全地面上，沒有人去尋，沒有人去找。
7 Wherefore ye shepherds, hear ye the word of Yahweh:
為此牧者啊，聽上主的話罷!
8 As I live, — Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely because my flock became a prey. And my flock became food for every wild beast of the field, through having no shepherd, Neither did my shepherds inquire after the flock, —But the shepherds tended themselves. And my flock, they tended not
我指著我的生命起誓──吾主上主的斷語──因為我的羊群由於沒有牧者，成了獵物；我的羊群成了一切野獸的食物，因為我的牧者不尋找我的羊，只知牧養自己，而不牧養我的羊：
9 Therefore ye shepherds, hear ye the word of Yahweh:
為此，牧者啊，聽上主的話罷!
10 Thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh, Behold me! against the shepherds So then I will require my flock at their hand And will cause them to cease tending the flock, Neither shall the shepherds any longer tend themselves, But I will deliver my flock out of their mouth, that they may not be their food.
吾主上主這樣說：我要攻擊那些牧者，從他們手裏追討我的羊，我不再讓他們牧放羊群；這樣，牧者便不能再牧養自己了；我要從他們口中救出我的羊，不再作他們的食物。
11 For Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, - Here am I myself Therefore will I inquire after my flock and seek them out:
因為吾主上主這樣說：看，我要親自去尋找我的羊，我要親自照顧我的羊。
12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day he is in the midst of his sheep that are scattered, So! will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all the places where they were scattered in the day of cloud and thick darkness;
猶如牧人在羊群失散的那日怎樣尋找他的羊，我也怎樣尋找我的羊；我要把那些曾在陰雲和黑暗之日四散在各地的羊，從那些地方救回來。
13 And I will bring them out from among the peoples And will gather them out of the lands, And will bring them upon their own soil, And will tend them Upon the mountains of Israel, In the ravines. And in all the habitable places of the land:
我要從各民族中將他們領出，從各國將他們聚集起來，領他們回到自己的地域；我要在以色列的群山上，溪水畔，以及本國的一切牧場上牧放他們。
14 In good pastures, will I feed them, And on the mountains of the height of Israel, shall be their fold, — There, shall they lie down in a fold that is good, And on pasture that is fat, shall they feed. among the mountains of Israel.
我要在茂盛的草原上牧放他們，在以色列的高山上有他們的羊棧，在那裏他們要臥在舒適的羊棧裏，在以色列的群山上，在肥美的牧場上吃草。
15 I myself, will tend my flock. And, I myself, will cause them to lie down, Declareth My Lord Yahweh:
我要親自牧放我的羊，親自使他們臥下──吾主上主的斷語──
16 That which is straying, will I seek out. And that which hath been driven away, will I bring back, And that which is torn, will I bind up, And the weak, will I strengthen, - But the fat and the strong, will I watch I will feed them with justice.
失落的我要尋找；迷路的，我要領回；受傷的，我要包紮；病弱的，我要療養；肥胖和強壯的，我要看守；我要按正義牧放他們。
17 And as for you O my flock, Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh: Behold me! judging between one kind of small cattle and another as well the rams as the he-goats.
我的羊群啊! 關於你們，吾主上主這樣說：看，我要在羊與羊，綿羊與山羊之間，施行審判。
18 Is it too small a thing for you that on the good pasture, ye feed, But the remainder of your pastures, ye must needs trample down with your feet? Or that of the pure waters, ye drink But the waters left remaining—with your feet, ye must needs foul?
你們在茂盛的草場上吃飽後，就用蹄子把吃剩的踐踏；喝足了清水，就用蹄子把剩下的弄髒，你們還以為是件小事嗎﹖
19 And my flock On what hath been trampled down by your feet, may feed, And of what hath been fouled by your feet, may drink?
我的羊群就該吃你們蹄子踏過的草，喝你們蹄子弄髒的水﹖
20 Therefore Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, unto them: Here am I myself. Therefore will I judge between fat sheep and lean sheep,
為此，吾主上主向他們這樣說：看我要，親自在肥羊與瘦羊之間施行審判，
21 Because with the side and with the shoulder, ye do thrust, And with your horns, ye do push all the sick, — Until you have scattered them abroad
因為你們用臀部，和肩膀排擠，用角牴撞一切病弱的，直到把他們趕到外面；
22 Therefore will I bring salvation to my flock, and they shall be no longer a prey, —but I will judge between one sheep and another,
因此我要拯救我的羊，使之不再作獵物；我要在羊與羊之間施行審判。
23 And I will raise up over them one shepherd And he shall tend them, Even my servant David, — He, will tend them, And, he, will become to them a shepherd;
我要為他們興起一個牧人，那即是我的僕人達味，他要牧放他們，作他們的牧人。
24 And, I Yahweh, will become to them a God. my servant David, being a prince in their midst, — I Yahweh, have spoken;
我，上主要作他們的天主，我的僕人達味在他們中作領袖：這是我上主說的。
25 And I will solemnise for them a covenant of prosperity, And will cause to cease the mischievous wild-beast out of the land, And they shall dwell in the wilderness, securely, And shall sleep in the forests;
我要同他們訂立平安盟約，使猛獸由那地上滅絕，他們便可在曠野中安居，在森林裏安眠。
26 And I, will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing, - And I will cause the abundant rain to come down in its season abundant rains of blessing, shall they be;
我要祝福他們和我山丘的四周，按時降雨，那是滿帶幸福的雨；
27 And the tree of the field shall yield his fruit And, the land, shall yield her increase, And they shall remain on their own soil in security, - So shall they know that I, am Yahweh, When I have broken the bars of their yoke, And shall deliver them out of the hand of them who have been using them as slaves.
因此田間的樹木要結果，地要有出產；他們將安居在本鄉。當我打斷他們所負的軛，由奴役他們者的手中救出他們時，他們必承認我是上主。
28 And they shall be no longer a prey for the nations, Nor shall the wild beast of the earth! devour them, — But they shall dwell securely with none to put them in terror.
他們不再作異民的獵物，地裏的野獸也不吞噬他們，他們反而要安居樂業，不再受人恐嚇。
29 And I will raise up unto them a plantation for fame, - And there shall be no longer the destroyed of hunger in the land, Neither shall they bear any longer the reproach of the nations.
我要使植物為他們而茂盛，他們在這地上不再為飢荒所消滅，也不再受異民的羞辱：
30 So shall they know that, I, Yahweh their God am with them, - And that they are my people the house of Israel, Declareth My Lord. Yahweh.
如此，他們必承認我上主是他們的天主，且與他們同在，而他們──以色列家族，是我的百姓──吾主上主的斷語──
31 Ye, therefore, my flock the flock of my pasture, are, men, — I, am your God, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
你們作我的羊群，是我牧場上的羊群；我是你們的天主──吾主上主的斷語。」
