Ezekiel 21
「人子啊，你要面向耶路撒冷和圣所滴下预言，攻击以色列地。
「 rén zǐ a ， nǐ yào miàn xiàng yē lù sā lěng hé shèng suǒ dī xià yù yán ， gōng jī yǐ sè liè dì 。
“Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and preach toward the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel.
对以色列地说，耶和华如此说：我与你为敌，并要拔刀出鞘，从你中间将义人和恶人一并剪除。
duì yǐ sè liè dì shuō ， yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ： wǒ yǔ nǐ wèi dí ， bìng yào bá dāo chū qiào ， cóng nǐ zhōng jiān jiāng yì rén hé è rén yí bìng jiǎn chú 。
Tell the land of Israel, ‘The LORD says: “Behold, I am against you, and will draw my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
我既要从你中间剪除义人和恶人，所以我的刀要出鞘，自南至北攻击一切有血气的；
wǒ jì yào cóng nǐ zhōng jiān jiǎn chú yì rén hé è rén ， suǒ yǐ wǒ de dāo yào chū qiào ， zì nán zhì běi gōng jī yí qiè yǒu xuè qì de ；
Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore my sword will go out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north.
一切有血气的就知道我—耶和华已经拔刀出鞘，必不再入鞘。
yí qiè yǒu xuè qì de jiù zhī dào wǒ — yē hé huá yǐ jīng bá dāo chū qiào ， bì bú zài rù qiào 。
All flesh will know that I, the LORD, have drawn my sword out of its sheath. It will not return any more.”’
人子啊，你要叹息，在他们眼前弯着腰，苦苦地叹息。
rén zǐ a ， nǐ yào tàn xī ， zài tā men yǎn qián wān zhe yāo ， kǔ kǔ dì tàn xī 。
“Therefore sigh, you son of man. You shall sigh before their eyes with a broken heart and with bitterness.
他们问你说：『为何叹息呢？』你就说：『因为有风声、灾祸要来。人心都必消化，手都发软，精神衰败，膝弱如水。看哪，这灾祸临近，必然成就。这是主耶和华说的。』」
tā men wèn nǐ shuō ：『 wèi hé tàn xī ne ？』 nǐ jiù shuō ：『 yīn wèi yǒu fēng shēng 、 zāi huò yào lái 。 rén xīn dōu bì xiāo huà ， shǒu dōu fā ruǎn ， jīng shén shuāi bài ， xī ruò rú shuǐ 。 kàn nǎ ， zhè zāi huò lín jìn ， bì rán chéng jiù 。 zhè shì zhǔ yē hé huá shuō de 。』」
It shall be, when they ask you, ‘Why do you sigh?’ that you shall say, ‘Because of the news, for it comes! Every heart will melt, all hands will be feeble, every spirit will faint, and all knees will be weak as water. Behold, it comes, and it shall be done, says the Lord GOD.’”
「人子啊，你要预言。耶和华吩咐我如此说： 有刀、有刀， 是磨快擦亮的；
「 rén zǐ a ， nǐ yào yù yán 。 yē hé huá fēn fù wǒ rú cǐ shuō ： yǒu dāo 、 yǒu dāo ， shì mó kuài cā liàng de ；
“Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The LORD says: “A sword! A sword! It is sharpened, and also polished.
磨快为要行杀戮， 擦亮为要像闪电。 我们岂可快乐吗？罚我子的杖藐视各树。
mó kuài wèi yào xíng shā lù ， cā liàng wèi yào xiàng shǎn diàn 。 wǒ men qǐ kě kuài lè ma ？ fá wǒ zǐ de zhàng miǎo shì gè shù 。
It is sharpened that it may make a slaughter. It is polished that it may be as lightning. Should we then make mirth? The rod of my son condemns every tree.
这刀已经交给人擦亮，为要应手使用。这刀已经磨快擦亮，好交在行杀戮的人手中。
zhè dāo yǐ jīng jiāo gěi rén cā liàng ， wèi yào yìng shǒu shǐ yòng 。 zhè dāo yǐ jīng mó kuài cā liàng ， hǎo jiāo zài háng shā lù de rén shǒu zhōng 。
It is given to be polished, that it may be handled. The sword is sharpened. Yes, it is polished to give it into the hand of the killer.”’
人子啊，你要呼喊哀号，因为这刀临到我的百姓和以色列一切的首领。他们和我的百姓都交在刀下，所以你要拍腿叹息。
rén zǐ a ， nǐ yào hū hǎn āi háo ， yīn wèi zhè dāo lín dào wǒ de bǎi xìng hé yǐ sè liè yí qiè de shǒu lǐng 。 tā men hé wǒ de bǎi xìng dōu jiāo zài dāo xià ， suǒ yǐ nǐ yào pāi tuǐ tàn xī 。
Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people. It is on all the princes of Israel. They are delivered over to the sword with my people. Therefore beat your thigh.
有试验的事；若那藐视的杖归于无有，怎么样呢？这是主耶和华说的。
yǒu shì yàn de shì ； ruò nà miǎo shì de zhàng guī yú wú yǒu ， zěn me yàng ne ？ zhè shì zhǔ yē hé huá shuō de 。
“For there is a trial. What if even the rod that condemns will be no more?” says the Lord GOD.
「人子啊，你要拍掌预言。我—耶和华要使这刀，就是致死伤的刀，一连三次加倍刺人，进入他们的内屋，使大人受死伤的就是这刀。
「 rén zǐ a ， nǐ yào pāi zhǎng yù yán 。 wǒ — yē hé huá yào shǐ zhè dāo ， jiù shì zhì sǐ shāng de dāo ， yì lián sān cì jiā bèi cì rén ， jìn rù tā men de nèi wū ， shǐ dà rén shòu sǐ shāng de jiù shì zhè dāo 。
“You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together. Let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the fatally wounded. It is the sword of the great one who is fatally wounded, which enters into their rooms.
我设立这恐吓人的刀，攻击他们的一切城门，使他们的心消化，加增他们跌倒的事。哎！这刀造得像闪电，磨得尖利，要行杀戮。
wǒ shè lì zhè kǒng hè rén de dāo ， gōng jī tā men de yí qiè chéng mén ， shǐ tā men de xīn xiāo huà ， jiā zēng tā men diē dǎo de shì 。 āi ！ zhè dāo zào dé xiàng shǎn diàn ， mó dé jiān lì ， yào xíng shā lù 。
I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied. Ah! It is made as lightning. It is pointed for slaughter.
刀啊，你归在右边，摆在左边；你面向哪方，就向那方杀戮。
dāo a ， nǐ guī zài yòu biān ， bǎi zài zuǒ biān ； nǐ miàn xiàng nǎ fāng ， jiù xiàng nà fāng shā lù 。
Gather yourselves together. Go to the right. Set yourselves in array. Go to the left, wherever your face is set.
我也要拍掌，并要使我的忿怒止息。这是我—耶和华说的。」
wǒ yě yào pāi zhǎng ， bìng yào shǐ wǒ de fèn nù zhǐ xī 。 zhè shì wǒ — yē hé huá shuō de 。」
I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest. I, the LORD, have spoken it.”
「人子啊，你要定出两条路，好使巴比伦王的刀来。这两条路必从一地分出来，又要在通城的路口上画出一只手来。
「 rén zǐ a ， nǐ yào dìng chū liǎng tiáo lù ， hǎo shǐ bā bǐ lún wáng de dāo lái 。 zhè liǎng tiáo lù bì cóng yí dì fēn chū lái ， yòu yào zài tōng chéng de lù kǒu shàng huà chū yì zhī shǒu lái 。
“Also, you son of man, appoint two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come. They both will come out of one land, and mark out a place. Mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
你要定出一条路，使刀来到亚扪人的拉巴；又要定出一条路，使刀来到犹大的坚固城耶路撒冷。
nǐ yào dìng chū yì tiáo lù ， shǐ dāo lái dào yà mén rén de lā bā ； yòu yào dìng chū yì tiáo lù ， shǐ dāo lái dào yóu dà de jiān gù chéng yē lù sā lěng 。
You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the fortified.
因为巴比伦王站在岔路那里，在两条路口上要占卜。他摇签 求问神像，察看牺牲的肝；
yīn wèi bā bǐ lún wáng zhàn zài chà lù nà lǐ ， zài liǎng tiáo lù kǒu shàng yào zhān bǔ 。 tā yáo qiān qiú wèn shén xiàng ， chá kàn xī shēng de gān ；
For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination. He shook the arrows back and forth. He consulted the teraphim. He looked in the liver.
在右手中拿着为耶路撒冷占卜的签，使他安设撞城锤，张口叫杀，扬声呐喊，筑垒造台，以撞城锤，攻打城门。
zài yòu shǒu zhōng ná zhe wèi yē lù sā lěng zhān bǔ de qiān ， shǐ tā ān shè zhuàng chéng chuí ， zhāng kǒu jiào shā ， yáng shēng nà hǎn ， zhù lěi zào tái ， yǐ zhuàng chéng chuí ， gōng dǎ chéng mén 。
In his right hand was the lot for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, and to build forts.
据那些曾起誓的犹大人看来，这是虚假的占卜；但巴比伦王要使他们想起罪孽，以致将他们捉住。」
jù nà xiē céng qǐ shì de yóu dà rén kàn lái ， zhè shì xū jiǎ de zhàn bǔ ； dàn bā bǐ lún wáng yào shǐ tā men xiǎng qǐ zuì niè ， yǐ zhì jiāng tā men zhuō zhù 。」
It will be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken.
主耶和华如此说：「因你们的过犯显露，使你们的罪孽被记念，以致你们的罪恶在行为上都彰显出来；又因你们被记念，就被捉住。
zhǔ yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ：「 yīn nǐ men de guò fàn xiǎn lù ， shǐ nǐ men de zuì niè bèi jì niàn ， yǐ zhì nǐ men de zuì è zài xíng wéi shàng dōu zhāng xiǎn chū lái ； yòu yīn nǐ men bèi jì niàn ， jiù bèi zhuō zhù 。
“Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have caused your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear; because you have come to memory, you will be taken with the hand.
你这受死伤行恶的以色列王啊，罪孽的尽头到了，受报的日子已到。
nǐ zhè shòu sǐ shāng xíng è de yǐ sè liè wáng a ， zuì niè de jìn tóu dào le ， shòu bào de rì zi yǐ dào 。
“‘You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day has come, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
主耶和华如此说：当除掉冠，摘下冕，景况必不再像先前；要使卑者升为高，使高者降为卑。
zhǔ yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ： dāng chú diào guān ， zhāi xià miǎn ， jǐng kuàng bì bú zài xiàng xiān qián ； yào shǐ bēi zhě shēng wèi gāo ， shǐ gāo zhě jiàng wèi bēi 。
the Lord GOD says: “Remove the turban, and take off the crown. This will not be as it was. Exalt that which is low, and humble that which is high.
我要将这国倾覆，倾覆，而又倾覆；这国也必不再有，直等到那应得的人来到，我就赐给他。」
wǒ yào jiāng zhè guó qīng fù ， qīng fù ， ér yòu qīng fù ； zhè guó yě bì bú zài yǒu ， zhí děng dào nà yīng dé de rén lái dào ， wǒ jiù cì gěi tā 。」
I will overturn, overturn, overturn it. This also will be no more, until he comes whose right it is; and I will give it.”’
「人子啊，要发预言说：主耶和华论到亚扪人和他们的凌辱，吩咐我如此说：有刀，有拔出来的刀，已经擦亮，为行杀戮，使他像闪电以行吞灭。
「 rén zǐ a ， yào fā yù yán shuō ： zhǔ yē hé huá lùn dào yà mén rén hé tā men de líng rǔ ， fēn fù wǒ rú cǐ shuō ： yǒu dāo ， yǒu bá chū lái de dāo ， yǐ jīng cā liàng ， wèi xíng shā lù ， shǐ tā xiàng shǎn diàn yǐ xíng tūn miè 。
“You, son of man, prophesy and say, ‘The Lord GOD says this concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach: “A sword! A sword is drawn! It is polished for the slaughter, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning;
人为你见虚假的异象，行谎诈的占卜，使你倒在受死伤之恶人的颈项上。他们罪孽到了尽头，受报的日子已到。
rén wéi nǐ jiàn xū jiǎ de yì xiàng ， xíng huǎng zhà de zhān bǔ ， shǐ nǐ dǎo zài shòu sǐ shāng zhī è rén de jǐng xiàng shàng 。 tā men zuì niè dào le jìn tóu ， shòu bào de rì zi yǐ dào 。
while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day has come in the time of the iniquity of the end.
你将刀收入鞘吧！在你受造之处、生长之地，我必刑罚你。
nǐ jiāng dāo shōu rù qiào ba ！ zài nǐ shòu zào zhī chù 、 shēng zhǎng zhī dì ， wǒ bì xíng fá nǐ 。
Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, I will judge you.
我必将我的恼恨倒在你身上，将我烈怒的火喷在你身上；又将你交在善于杀灭的畜类人手中。
wǒ bì jiāng wǒ de nǎo hèn dǎo zài nǐ shēn shàng ， jiāng wǒ liè nù de huǒ pēn zài nǐ shēn shàng ； yòu jiāng nǐ jiāo zài shàn yú shā miè de chù lèi rén shǒu zhōng 。
I will pour out my indignation on you. I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath. I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skillful to destroy.
你必当柴被火焚烧；你的血必流在国中。你必不再被记念，因为这是我—耶和华说的。」
nǐ bì dāng chái bèi huǒ fén shāo ； nǐ de xuè bì liú zài guó zhōng 。 nǐ bì bú zài bèi jì niàn ， yīn wèi zhè shì wǒ — yē hé huá shuō de 。」
You will be for fuel to the fire. Your blood will be in the middle of the land. You will be remembered no more; for I, the LORD, have spoken it.”’”
