以西結書 15
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1耶和華的話臨到我說:
1And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2「人子啊,葡萄樹比別樣樹有甚麼強處?葡萄枝比眾樹枝有甚麼好處?
2Son of man, what shall be made of the wood of the vine, out of all the trees of the woods that are among the trees of the forests?
3其上可以取木料做甚麼工用,可以取來做釘子掛甚麼器皿嗎?
3Shall wood be taken of if, to do any work, or shall a pin be made of it for any vessel to hang thereon?
4看哪,已經拋在火中當作柴燒,火既燒了兩頭,中間也被燒了,還有益於工用嗎?
4Behold it is cast into the fire for fuel: the fire hath consumed both ends thereof, and the midst thereof is reduced to ashes: shall it be useful for any work?
5完全的時候尚且不合乎甚麼工用,何況被火燒壞,還能合乎甚麼工用嗎?」
5Even when it was whole it was not fit for work: how much less, when the fire hath devoured and consumed it, shall any work be made of it?
6所以,主耶和華如此說:「眾樹以內的葡萄樹,我怎樣使它在火中當柴,也必照樣待 耶路撒冷 的居民。
6Therefore thus saith the Lord God: As the vine tree among the trees of the forests which I have given to the fire to be consumed, so will I deliver up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
7我必向他們變臉;他們雖從火中出來,火卻要燒滅他們。我向他們變臉的時候,你們就知道我是耶和華。
7And I will set my face against them: they shall go out from fire, and fire shall consume them: and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have set my face against them.
8我必使地土荒涼,因為他們行事干犯我。這是主耶和華說的。」
8And I shall have made their land a wilderness, and desolate, because they have been transgressors, saith the Lord God.
