< 以西結書 27 >

1 耶和華的話又臨到我說:
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2 「人子啊,要為泰爾作起哀歌,
“You, son of man, take up a lamentation over Tyre;
3 說:你居住海口,是眾民的商埠;你的交易通到許多的海島。主耶和華如此說: 泰爾啊,你曾說: 我是全然美麗的。
and tell Tyre, ‘You who dwell at the entry of the sea, who are the merchant of the peoples to many islands, the Lord GOD says: “You, Tyre, have said, ‘I am perfect in beauty.’
4 你的境界在海中, 造你的使你全然美麗。
Your borders are in the heart of the seas. Your builders have perfected your beauty.

11 亞發人和你的軍隊都在你四圍的牆上,你的望樓也有勇士;他們懸掛盾牌,成全你的美麗。
The men of Arvad with your army were on your walls all around, and valiant men were in your towers. They hung their shields on your walls all around. They have perfected your beauty.
12 「他施人因你多有各類的財物,就作你的客商,拿銀、鐵、錫、鉛兌換你的貨物。

25 他施的船隻接連成幫為你運貨, 你便在海中豐富極其榮華。
“‘“The ships of Tarshish were your caravans for your merchandise. You were replenished and made very glorious in the heart of the seas.
26 盪槳的已經把你盪到大水之處, 東風在海中將你打破。
Your rowers have brought you into great waters. The east wind has broken you in the heart of the seas.
27 你的資財、物件、貨物、 水手、掌舵的、 補縫的、經營交易的, 並你中間的戰士和人民, 在你破壞的日子必都沉在海中。
Your riches, your wares, your merchandise, your mariners, your pilots, your repairers of ship seams, the dealers in your merchandise, and all your men of war who are in you, with all your company which is amongst you, will fall into the heart of the seas in the day of your ruin.
28 你掌舵的呼號之聲一發, 郊野都必震動。
At the sound of the cry of your pilots, the pasture lands will shake.
29 凡盪槳的和水手, 並一切泛海掌舵的, 都必下船登岸。
All who handle the oars, the mariners and all the pilots of the sea, will come down from their ships. They will stand on the land,
30 他們必為你放聲痛哭, 把塵土撒在頭上, 在灰中打滾;
and will cause their voice to be heard over you, and will cry bitterly. They will cast up dust on their heads. They will wallow in the ashes.
31 又為你使頭上光禿, 用麻布束腰, 號咷痛哭, 苦苦悲哀。
They will make themselves bald for you, and clothe themselves with sackcloth. They will weep for you in bitterness of soul, with bitter mourning.
32 他們哀號的時候, 為你作起哀歌哀哭, 說:有何城如泰爾? 有何城如她在海中成為寂寞的呢?
In their wailing they will take up a lamentation for you, and lament over you, saying, ‘Who is there like Tyre, like her who is brought to silence in the middle of the sea?’
33 你由海上運出貨物, 就使許多國民充足; 你以許多資財、貨物 使地上的君王豐富。
When your wares came from the seas, you filled many peoples. You enriched the kings of the earth with the multitude of your riches and of your merchandise.
34 你在深水中被海浪打破的時候, 你的貨物和你中間的一切人民, 就都沉下去了。
In the time that you were broken by the seas, in the depths of the waters, your merchandise and all your company fell within you.
