Ezekiel 34
1 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
耶和華的話臨到我說：
2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this to the shepherds: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who are shepherding themselves. Should not shepherds guard the flock?
「人子啊，你要向以色列的牧人發預言，攻擊他們，說，主耶和華如此說：禍哉！以色列的牧人只知牧養自己。牧人豈不當牧養群羊嗎？
3 You eat the fatty portions and you dress in wool. You slaughter the fatlings of the flock. You do not shepherd at all.
你們吃脂油、穿羊毛、宰肥壯的，卻不牧養群羊。
4 You have not strengthened those who have diseases, nor do you heal the ones who are ill. You do not bind up the ones who are broken, and you do not restore the outcasts or seek the lost. Instead, you rule over them through strength and violence.
瘦弱的，你們沒有養壯；有病的，你們沒有醫治；受傷的，你們沒有纏裹；被逐的，你們沒有領回；失喪的，你們沒有尋找；但用強暴嚴嚴地轄制。
5 Then they were scattered without a shepherd, and they became food for all the living beasts in the fields, after they were scattered.
因無牧人，羊就分散；既分散，便作了一切野獸的食物。
6 My flock strays on all of the mountains and on every high hill, and it is dispersed over the entire surface of the earth. Yet no one is searching for them.
我的羊在諸山間、在各高岡上流離，在全地上分散，無人去尋，無人去找。
7 Therefore, shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh:
「所以，你們這些牧人要聽耶和華的話。
8 As I live—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—because my flock has become plunder and food for all the beasts in the fields, because there was no shepherd and none of my shepherds sought my flock, but the shepherds guarded themselves and did not shepherd my flock.
主耶和華說：我指着我的永生起誓，我的羊因無牧人就成為掠物，也作了一切野獸的食物。我的牧人不尋找我的羊；這些牧人只知牧養自己，並不牧養我的羊。
9 Therefore, shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh:
所以你們這些牧人要聽耶和華的話。
10 The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against the shepherds, and I will require my flock from their hand. Then I will dismiss them from shepherding the flock; neither will the shepherds any longer shepherd themselves since I will take away my flock from their mouths, so that my flock will no longer be food for them.
主耶和華如此說：我必與牧人為敵，必向他們的手追討我的羊，使他們不再牧放群羊；牧人也不再牧養自己。我必救我的羊脫離他們的口，不再作他們的食物。」
11 For the Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I myself will seek out my flock and I will look after them,
「主耶和華如此說：看哪，我必親自尋找我的羊，將牠們尋見。
12 like a shepherd seeking his flock on the day he is within the midst of his scattered flock. Thus I will seek my flock, and I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on the day of clouds and darkness.
牧人在羊群四散的日子怎樣尋找他的羊，我必照樣尋找我的羊。這些羊在密雲黑暗的日子散到各處，我必從那裏救回牠們來。
13 Then I will bring them out from among the peoples; I will gather them from the lands and bring them to their land. I will put them in pastures on the mountainsides of Israel, by the streams, and in every settlement in the land.
我必從萬民中領出牠們，從各國內聚集牠們，引導牠們歸回故土，也必在以色列山上－一切溪水旁邊、境內一切可居之處－牧養牠們。
14 I will put them in good pastures; the high mountains of Israel will be their grazing places. They will lie down there in good places for grazing, in abundant pastures, and they will graze on the mountains of Israel.
我必在美好的草場牧養牠們。牠們的圈必在以色列高處的山上，牠們必在佳美之圈中躺臥，也在以色列山肥美的草場吃草。
15 I myself will shepherd my flock, and I myself will make them lie down—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—
主耶和華說：我必親自作我羊的牧人，使牠們得以躺臥。
16 I will seek the lost and restore the outcast. I will bind up the broken sheep and heal the sick sheep but the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will shepherd with justice.
失喪的，我必尋找；被逐的，我必領回；受傷的，我必纏裹；有病的，我必醫治；只是肥的壯的，我必除滅，也要秉公牧養牠們。
17 So now you, my flock—this is what the Lord Yahweh says—behold, I will be a judge between sheep and sheep and between rams and male goats.
「我的羊群哪，論到你們，主耶和華如此說：我必在羊與羊中間、公綿羊與公山羊中間施行判斷。
18 Is it not enough to feed on the good pasture, that you must trample down with your feet what is left of the pasture; and to drink from clear waters, that you must muddy the rivers with your feet?
你們這些肥壯的羊，在美好的草場吃草還以為小事嗎？剩下的草，你們竟用蹄踐踏了；你們喝清水，剩下的水，你們竟用蹄攪渾了。
19 Must my sheep eat what you have trampled with your feet, and drink what you have muddied with your feet?
至於我的羊，只得吃你們所踐踏的，喝你們所攪渾的。
20 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says this to them: Behold! I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the thin ones,
「所以，主耶和華如此說：我必在肥羊和瘦羊中間施行判斷。
21 for you have pushed them with your sides and shoulders, and you have gored all of the weak ones with your horns until you have scattered them away from the land.
因為你們用脅用肩擁擠一切瘦弱的，又用角牴觸，以致使牠們四散。
22 I will save my flock and they will no longer be plunder, and I will judge between one sheep and another!
所以，我必拯救我的群羊不再作掠物；我也必在羊和羊中間施行判斷。
23 I will set over them one shepherd, my servant David. He will shepherd them, he will feed them, and he will be their shepherd.
我必立一牧人照管他們，牧養他們，就是我的僕人大衛。他必牧養他們，作他們的牧人。
24 For I, Yahweh, will be their God, and my servant David will be a prince among them—I, Yahweh, have declared this.
我－耶和華必作他們的上帝，我的僕人大衛必在他們中間作王。這是耶和華說的。
25 Then I will make a covenant of peace with them and remove the evil wild animals from the land, so that they will live securely in the wilderness and safely sleep in the forests.
「我必與他們立平安的約，使惡獸從境內斷絕，他們就必安居在曠野，躺臥在林中。
26 I will also bring blessings on them and on the places around my hill, for I will send out showers in due season. These will be showers of blessing.
我必使他們與我山的四圍成為福源，我也必叫時雨落下，必有福如甘霖而降。
27 Then the trees of the field will produce their fruit, and the earth will yield its produce. My sheep will be secure in their land; then they will know that I am Yahweh, when I break the bars of their yoke, and when I rescue them from the hand of those who enslaved them.
田野的樹必結果，地也必有出產；他們必在故土安然居住。我折斷他們所負的軛，救他們脫離那以他們為奴之人的手；那時，他們就知道我是耶和華。
28 They will no longer be plunder for the nations, and the wild animals on the earth will no longer devour them. For they will live securely, and no one will frighten them.
他們必不再作外邦人的掠物，地上的野獸也不再吞吃他們；卻要安然居住，無人驚嚇。
29 For I will provide them a land known for its crops; so they will not be victims of famine in the land, and they will not bear the scorn of the nations.
我必給他們興起有名的植物；他們在境內不再為饑荒所滅，也不再受外邦人的羞辱，
30 Then they will know that I, Yahweh their God, am with them. They are my people, the house of Israel—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
必知道我、耶和華－他們的上帝是與他們同在的，並知道他們－以色列家是我的民。這是主耶和華說的。
31 For you are my sheep, the flock of my pasture, and my people, and I am your God—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
你們作我的羊，我草場上的羊，乃是以色列人，我也是你們的上帝。這是主耶和華說的。」
