以西結書 24
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1第九年十月初十日，耶和華的話又臨到我說：
1In the ninth year, on the tenth day of the tenth month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2「人子啊，今日正是 巴比倫 王就近 耶路撒冷 的日子，你要將這日記下，
2“Son of man, write down today’s date, for on this very day the king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem.
3要向這悖逆之家設比喻說，主耶和華如此說： 將鍋放在火上， 放好了，就倒水在其中；
3Now speak a parable to this rebellious house and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Put the pot on the fire; put it on and pour in the water.
4將肉塊，就是一切肥美的肉塊、腿， 和肩都聚在其中， 拿美好的骨頭把鍋裝滿；
4Put in the pieces of meat, every good piece— thigh and shoulder— fill it with choice bones.
5取羊群中最好的， 將 柴 堆在 鍋 下， 使鍋開滾， 好把骨頭煮在其中。
5Take the choicest of the flock and pile the fuel beneath it. Bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it.’
6「主耶和華如此說：禍哉！這流人血的城，就是長銹的鍋。其中的銹未曾除掉，須要將肉塊從其中一一取出來，不必為它拈鬮。
6Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the city of bloodshed, to the pot now rusted, whose rust will not come off! Empty it piece by piece; cast no lots for its contents.
7城中所流的血倒在淨光的磐石上，不倒在地上，用土掩蓋。
7For the blood she shed is still within her; she poured it out on the bare rock; she did not pour it on the ground to cover it with dust.
8這城中所流的血倒在淨光的磐石上，不得掩蓋，乃是出於我，為要發忿怒施行報應。
8In order to stir up wrath and take vengeance, I have placed her blood on the bare rock, so that it would not be covered.’
9所以主耶和華如此說：禍哉！這流人血的城，我也必大堆 火柴 ，
9Yes, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the city of bloodshed! I, too, will pile the kindling high.
10添上木柴，使火着旺，將肉煮爛，把湯熬濃，使骨頭烤焦；
10Pile on the logs and kindle the fire; cook the meat well and mix in the spices; let the bones be burned.
11把鍋倒空坐在炭火上，使鍋燒熱，使銅燒紅，鎔化其中的污穢，除淨其上的銹。
11Set the empty pot on its coals until it becomes hot and its copper glows. Then its impurity will melt within; its rust will be consumed.
12這鍋勞碌疲乏，所長的大銹仍未除掉；這銹就是用火 也不能除掉 。
12It has frustrated every effort; its thick rust has not been removed, even by the fire.
13在你污穢中有淫行，我潔淨你，你卻不潔淨。你的污穢再不能潔淨，直等我向你發的忿怒止息。
13Because of the indecency of your uncleanness I tried to cleanse you, but you would not be purified from your filthiness. You will not be pure again until My wrath against you has subsided.
14我－耶和華說過的必定成就，必照話而行，必不返回，必不顧惜，也不後悔。人必照你的舉動行為審判你。這是主耶和華說的。」
14I, the LORD, have spoken; the time is coming, and I will act. I will not refrain or show pity, nor will I relent. I will judge you according to your ways and deeds,’ declares the Lord GOD.”
15耶和華的話又臨到我說：
15Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
16「人子啊，我要將你眼目所喜愛的忽然取去，你卻不可悲哀哭泣，也不可流淚，
16“Son of man, behold, I am about to take away the desire of your eyes with a fatal blow. But you must not mourn or weep or let your tears flow.
17只可歎息，不可出聲，不可辦理喪事；頭上仍勒裹頭巾，腳上仍穿鞋，不可蒙着嘴唇，也不可吃弔喪的食物。」
17Groan quietly; do not mourn for the dead. Put on your turban and strap your sandals on your feet; do not cover your lips or eat the bread of mourners.”
18於是我將這事早晨告訴百姓，晚上我的妻就死了。次日早晨我便遵命而行。
18So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. And the next morning I did as I had been commanded.
19百姓問我說：「你這樣行與我們有甚麼關係，你不告訴我們嗎？」
19Then the people asked me, “Won’t you tell us what these things you are doing mean to us?”
20我回答他們：「耶和華的話臨到我說：
20So I answered them, “The word of the LORD came to me, saying:
21『你告訴 以色列 家，主耶和華如此說：我必使我的聖所，就是你們勢力所誇耀、眼裏所喜愛、心中所愛惜的被褻瀆，並且你們所遺留的兒女必倒在刀下。
21Tell the house of Israel that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I am about to desecrate My sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and the delight of your soul. And the sons and daughters you left behind will fall by the sword.’
22那時，你們必行我 僕人 所行的，不蒙着嘴唇，也不吃弔喪的食物。
22Then you will do as I have done: You will not cover your lips or eat the bread of mourners.
23你們仍要頭上勒裹頭巾，腳上穿鞋；不可悲哀哭泣。你們必因自己的罪孽相對歎息，漸漸消滅。
23Your turbans will remain on your heads and your sandals on your feet. You will not mourn or weep, but you will waste away because of your sins, and you will groan among yourselves.
24以西結 必這樣為你們作預兆；凡他所行的，你們也必照樣行。那事來到，你們就知道我是主耶和華。』
24‘Thus Ezekiel will be a sign for you; you will do everything that he has done. When this happens, you will know that I am the Lord GOD.’
25「人子啊，我除掉他們所倚靠、所歡喜的榮耀，並眼中所喜愛、心裏所重看的兒女。
25And you, son of man, know that on the day I take away their stronghold, their pride and joy—the desire of their eyes which uplifted their souls—and their sons and daughters as well,
26那日逃脫的人豈不來到你這裏，使你耳聞這事嗎？
26on that day a fugitive will come and tell you the news.
27你必向逃脫的人開口說話，不再啞口。你必這樣為他們作預兆，他們就知道我是耶和華。」
27On that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped; you will speak and no longer be mute. So you will be a sign to them, and they will know that I am the LORD.”
