以西結書 28
1 耶和華的話又臨到我說：
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 「人子啊，你對泰爾君王說，主耶和華如此說： 因你心裏高傲，說：我是神； 我在海中坐神之位。 你雖然居心自比神， 也不過是人，並不是神！
“Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre: Thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, ‘I am God, and I sit in the chair of God, in the heart of the sea,’ though you are a man, and not God, and because you have presented your heart as if it were the heart of God:
3 看哪，你比但以理更有智慧， 甚麼祕事都不能向你隱藏。
Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is concealed from you.
4 你靠自己的智慧聰明得了金銀財寶， 收入庫中。
By your wisdom and prudence, you have made yourself strong, and you have acquired gold and silver for your storehouses.
5 你靠自己的大智慧和貿易增添資財， 又因資財心裏高傲。
By the multitude of your wisdom, and by your business dealings, you have multiplied strength for yourself. And your heart has been exalted by your strength.
6 所以主耶和華如此說： 因你居心自比神，
Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted as if it were the heart of God,
7 我必使外邦人， 就是列國中的強暴人臨到你這裏； 他們必拔刀砍壞你用智慧得來的美物， 褻瀆你的榮光。
for this reason, behold, I will lead over you foreigners, the most robust among the Gentiles. And they will bare their swords over the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your beauty.
8 他們必使你下坑； 你必死在海中， 與被殺的人一樣。
They will destroy you and pull you down. And you will die the death of those slain in the heart of the sea.
9 在殺你的人面前你還能說「我是神」嗎？ 其實你在殺害你的人手中， 不過是人，並不是神。
So then, will you speak, in the presence of those who are destroying you, before the hand of those who are killing you, saying, ‘I am God,’ though you are a man, and not God?
10 你必死在外邦人手中， 與未受割禮的人一樣， 因為這是主耶和華說的。」
You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hand of foreigners. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.”
11 耶和華的話臨到我說：
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: “Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre,
12 「人子啊，你為泰爾王作起哀歌，說主耶和華如此說： 你無所不備， 智慧充足，全然美麗。
and you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord God: You were the seal of similitudes, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13 你曾在伊甸上帝的園中， 佩戴各樣寶石， 就是紅寶石、紅璧璽、金鋼石、 水蒼玉、紅瑪瑙、碧玉、 藍寶石、綠寶石、紅玉，和黃金； 又有精美的鼓笛在你那裏， 都是在你受造之日預備齊全的。
You were with the delights of the Paradise of God. Every precious stone was your covering: sardius, topaz, and jasper, chrysolite, and onyx, and beryl, sapphire, and garnet, and emerald. The work of your beauty was of gold, and your fissures were ready in the day when you were formed.
14 你是那受膏遮掩約櫃的基路伯； 我將你安置在上帝的聖山上； 你在發光如火的寶石中間往來。
You were a cherub, stretched out and protecting, and I stationed you on the holy mountain of God. You have walked in the midst of stones containing fire.
15 你從受造之日所行的都完全， 後來在你中間又察出不義。
You were perfect in your ways, from the day of your formation, until iniquity was found in you.
16 因你貿易很多， 就被強暴的事充滿，以致犯罪， 所以我因你褻瀆聖地， 就從上帝的山驅逐你。 遮掩約櫃的基路伯啊， 我已將你從發光如火的寶石中除滅。
By the multitude of your business dealings, your interior was filled with iniquity, and you sinned. And I cast you away from the mountain of God, and I perished you, O protecting cherub, from the midst of the stones containing fire.
17 你因美麗心中高傲， 又因榮光敗壞智慧， 我已將你摔倒在地， 使你倒在君王面前， 好叫他們目睹眼見。
And your heart was exalted by your beauty; you have destroyed your own wisdom by your beauty. I have cast you to the ground. I have presented you before the face of kings, so that they may examine you.
18 你因罪孽眾多， 貿易不公， 就褻瀆你那裏的聖所。 故此，我使火從你中間發出，燒滅你， 使你在所有觀看的人眼前變為地上的爐灰。
You have defiled your sanctuaries, by the multitude of your iniquities and by the iniquity of your business dealings. Therefore, I will produce a fire from your midst, which will consume you, and I will make you into ashes upon the earth, in the sight of all who are watching you.
19 各國民中，凡認識你的， 都必為你驚奇。 你令人驚恐， 不再存留於世，直到永遠。」
All who gaze upon you among the Gentiles will be stupefied over you. You were made out of nothing, and you shall not be, forever.”
20 耶和華的話臨到我說：
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
21 「人子啊，你要向西頓預言攻擊她，
“Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and you shall prophesy about it.
22 說主耶和華如此說： 西頓哪，我與你為敵， 我必在你中間得榮耀。 我在你中間施行審判、顯為聖的時候， 人就知道我是耶和華。
And you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Sidon, and I will be glorified in your midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have executed judgments in her, and when I will have been sanctified in her.
23 我必使瘟疫進入西頓， 使血流在她街上。 被殺的必在其中仆倒， 四圍有刀劍臨到她， 人就知道我是耶和華。」
And I will send a pestilence upon her, and there will be blood in her streets. And they will fall, slain by the sword, on every side in her midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
24 「四圍恨惡以色列家的人，必不再向他們作刺人的荊棘，傷人的蒺藜，人就知道我是主耶和華。」
And the house of Israel will no longer be a stumbling block of bitterness, nor a thorn bringing pain everywhere around them, to those who turn against them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”
25 主耶和華如此說：「我將分散在萬民中的以色列家招聚回來，向他們在列邦人眼前顯為聖的時候，他們就在我賜給我僕人雅各之地，仍然居住。
Thus says the Lord God: “When I will have gathered together the house of Israel, from the peoples among whom they have been dispersed, I shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the Gentiles. And they shall live in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
26 他們要在這地上安然居住。我向四圍恨惡他們的眾人施行審判以後，他們要蓋造房屋，栽種葡萄園，安然居住，就知道我是耶和華－他們的上帝。」
And they shall live within it securely. And they shall build houses and plant vineyards. And they shall live in confidence, when I will have executed judgments upon all those who turn against them on every side. And they shall know that I am the Lord their God.”
