Ezekiel 25
1 [Some time later, ] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
上主的話傳給我說：「
2 “You human, turn toward where the Ammon people- [lives], and prophesy [what will happen to] them.
人子，你面向阿孟子民，講預言攻擊他們，
3 Say about them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “You shouted joyfully when my [in Jerusalem] was destroyed, and when the country/land of Israel was ruined, and when the people of Judah were (exiled/forced to go) [to Babylonia].
向阿孟子民說：你們聽吾主上主的話! 吾主上主這樣說：因為你譏笑我的聖殿說：『哈哈! 聖殿可受了褻瀆! 』對以色列地域說：『它可荒蕪了! 』對猶大家族說：『他們可被擄去了! 』
4 Therefore, I am going to allow you to be conquered by people [who will come] from the east. They will set up their tents in your country and live there. And they will eat the fruit from [fruit trees] and drink the [from your cattle].
為此，看，我要將你交給東方的子民作為產業，他們要在你那裏設立自己的帳幕，在那裏定居，吃你的果實，喝你的奶。
5 I will [your capital city] Rabbah to become a pasture for camels, and the rest of Ammon to [only] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
我要使辣巴成為牧放駱駝之地，使阿孟人的地方成為羊棧；如此你們必承認我是上主。
6 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “You clapped your [joyfully] and stomped your feet, and laughed because you despised [the people in] the land of Israel.
因為吾主上主這樣說：因為你們對以色列地方所遭受的一切，曾手舞足蹈，滿心喜歡；
7 Therefore, I will use my power [MTY] against you, and I will enable [other] nations [conquer you and] take away your valuable possessions. I will destroy you completely [DOU], with the result that you no longer will be a nation. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
因此，看，我要伸手打擊你，將你交給異族作為掠物；我要從人民中剷除你，由各國中消滅你；我要使你滅絕；如此，你必承認我是上主。」
8 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[The people of] [south of Ammon] and [the people of] [south of Moab despised Israel and] said, ‘The people [MTY] of Israel have [as unimportant] as all the other nations!’
吾主上主這樣說：「因為摩阿布【和色依爾】說：看猶大家族與所有異民並無不同!
9 Therefore, I will destroy the cities that protect the borders of Moab, starting at Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim, the finest cities in Moab.
為此，看，我要暴露摩阿布的山區，以及她邊垂的城池，暴露她全國的精華，如貝特耶史摩特，巴耳默紅和克黎雅塔殷。
10 I will enable people from the east to conquer Moab and also to conquer Ammon. As a result, [I will cause that] Ammon will no longer be remembered by other nations.
我要將他們同阿孟子民一起交給東方的子民作為產業，使他們在異民中再不被人提及。
11 I will also punish [the people of] Moab. When that happens, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
我要向摩阿布施行懲罰：如此，他們必承認我是上主。」
12 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[You people of] Edom are guilty of getting revenge on the people [MTY] of Judah.
吾主上主這樣說：「因為厄東曾對猶大家族復仇雪恥，因對他們復仇而犯了重罪；
13 Therefore this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: 'I will use my power against [the people of] Edom and will get rid of their men and their animals. I will ruin the land from Teman [region in central Edom] to Dedan [region in the south of Edom], and many of their men will be killed [their enemies] swords.'
為此，吾主上主這樣說：我要伸手打擊厄東，將人與走獸由境內剷除，使她成為曠野，從特曼到德丹的人都要死於刀下。
14 The Israeli people will use their power [MTY] to get revenge on [the people of] Edom. They will show [the people of] Edom that I have been angry with them, and I will punish [MTY] them. The people of Edom will experience my getting revenge on them. Then they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
我要藉我的百姓以色列的手替我報復厄東，他們要按我的怒氣和憤恨對待厄東，如此他們便知道這是我的報復──吾主上主的斷語。」
15 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “The Philistia people-group wanted very much to get revenge [on the people of Judah]. They very maliciously wanted to destroy [Judah].
吾主上主這樣說：「因為培肋舍特人以極殘忍的報復心來施行報復，為了他們的世仇，企圖消滅以色列；
16 Therefore this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I am about to use my power [MTY] against the Philistia people. I will get rid of the Kereth people-group and all [those who live along] the coast of the [Mediterranean] Sea.
為此吾主上主這樣說：我要伸手打擊培肋舍特人，剷除革勒提人，毀滅殘留在海濱的人。
17 By the way I punish them, I will get great revenge on them and show that I am angry with them. And when I get revenge on them, they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
我要在他們身上以盛怒的懲罰施行嚴厲的報復；當我在他們身上施行報復時，他們便承認我是上主。」
