Ezekiel 28
1 The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
2 “Son of man, tell the prince of Tyre, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, ‘I am a god, I sit in the seat of God, in the middle of the seas;’ yet you are man, and no god, though you set your heart as the heart of a god—
人子，你要向提洛的王子說：吾主上主這樣說：因為你心高氣傲地說：『我是神，我在海心坐在神位上。』其實，你只是人，而不是神，你心中卻自以為是神。
3 behold, you are wiser than Daniel. There is no secret that is hidden from you.
看，至於明智，你勝過達尼爾，任何秘密都不能隱瞞你。
4 By your wisdom and by your understanding you have gotten yourself riches, and have gotten gold and silver into your treasuries.
你憑你的智慧和聰明發了財，把金銀儲滿你寶庫。
5 By your great wisdom and by your trading you have increased your riches, and your heart is lifted up because of your riches—”
你在貿易上憑你的豐富智慧，不斷增加你的財富；因你的財富，你便心高氣傲，
6 “‘therefore the Lord GOD says: “Because you have set your heart as the heart of God,
為此吾主上主這樣說：因為你心中自以為是神，
7 therefore, behold, I will bring strangers on you, the terrible of the nations. They will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom. They will defile your brightness.
為此，看我要率領外方人，即列國最蠻橫的人來攻打你，他們要拔出劍來攻擊你以智慧所得的美麗，玷污你的光華，
8 They will bring you down to the pit. You will die the death of those who are slain in the heart of the seas.
將你拋入深淵，使你在海中遭受慘死。
9 Will you yet say before him who kills you, ‘I am God’? But you are man, and not God, in the hand of him who wounds you.
在殺戮你的面前，你還敢說『我是神』嗎﹖在擊殺你的人手中，你只是人，而不是神。
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers; for I have spoken it,” says the Lord GOD.’”
你必在外方人手中死去，像未受割損的人死去一樣：這是我，上主說的──吾主上主的斷語。」
11 Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
12 “Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and tell him, ‘The Lord GOD says: “You were the seal of full measure, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
人子，你要為提洛的王子唱哀歌，哀悼他說：吾主上主這樣說：你原是一個完美的的模型，滿備智慧，十分美觀。
13 You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, sapphire, turquoise, and beryl. Gold work of tambourines and of pipes was in you. They were prepared in the day that you were created.
你曾住在「伊甸」──天主的樂園內，有各種寶石作你的服飾，如赤玉、青玉、金鋼石、橄欖玉、紅瑪瑙、水蒼玉、藍玉、紫寶石、翡翠；衣邊和繡花是用金做的，在你受造的那天，都已準備好了。
14 You were the anointed cherub who covers. Then I set you up on the holy mountain of God. You have walked up and down in the middle of the stones of fire.
我曾立你為革魯賓，作光耀的守衛，在天主的聖山上，在烈火的石中往來。
15 You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, until unrighteousness was found in you.
從你受造之日起，你的行為原是齊全的，直到你犯了罪之時。
16 By the abundance of your commerce, your insides were filled with violence, and you have sinned. Therefore I have cast you as profane out of God’s mountain. I have destroyed you, covering cherub, from the middle of the stones of fire.
因你生意興隆，你就充滿了欺壓，犯了重罪，因此我從天主的山上將你趕走，從烈火石中將你這作守衛的革魯賓剷除。
17 Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty. You have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor. I have cast you to the ground. I have laid you before kings, that they may see you.
你因美麗而心高氣傲，為了你的光耀，你失去了智慧，所以我要把你拋在地上，叫你在列王面前出醜。
18 By the multitude of your iniquities, in the unrighteousness of your commerce, you have profaned your sanctuaries. Therefore I have brought out a fire from the middle of you. It has devoured you. I have turned you to ashes on the earth in the sight of all those who see you.
因你罪過眾多，因你經商不公，褻瀆了你的聖所，所以我要使火由你中間冒出，將你燒毀，在眾目昭彰之下，使你成為地上的塵埃。
19 All those who know you among the peoples will be astonished at you. You have become a terror, and you will exist no more.”’”
萬民中凡認識你的，都因你而驚駭。你將成為恐怖的對象，且永遠不復存在。」
20 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
上主的話傳給我說：「
21 “Son of man, set your face toward Sidon, and prophesy against it,
人子，你應面向漆冬，講預言攻擊她，
22 and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Sidon. I will be glorified among you. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I have executed judgments in her, and am sanctified in her.
對她說：吾主上主這樣說：漆冬，看，我要攻擊你，在你中間受光榮；當我對她施行懲罰，對她顯示我的聖善時，他們必承認我是上主。
23 For I will send pestilence into her, and blood into her streets. The wounded will fall within her, with the sword on her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
我要在她境內散發瘟疫，使血傾流在街市上，刀劍由四周向她襲擊，傷亡的人橫臥在她中間：這樣，他們必承認我是上主。
24 “‘“There will no longer be a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor a hurting thorn of any that are around them that scorned them. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.”
以色列的四鄰中，為以色列家族再沒有刺人的荊棘和惱人的蒺藜，敢於輕視他們：這樣，他們必承認我是上主。」
25 “‘The Lord GOD says: “When I have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and am shown as holy among them in the sight of the nations, then they will dwell in their own land which I gave to my servant Jacob.
吾主上主這樣說：「當我把分散在各民族中的以色列家族聚集起來時，我要在異民前，在他們身上顯示為聖：他們要住在我所賜予我僕人雅各伯的地域內。
26 They will dwell in it securely. Yes, they will build houses, plant vineyards, and will dwell securely when I have executed judgments on all those around them who have treated them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the LORD their God.”’”
他們要安全地住在那裏，建造房屋，栽植葡萄園；當我向一般輕視過他們的四鄰施行懲罰時，他們必平安地住在那裏。那麼他們必承認我，上主，是他們的天主。」
