Ezekiel 28
1 [Then] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said]:
上主的話傳給我說：「
2 “You human, give to the king of Tyre this message from [me], Yahweh the Lord: ‘You have very proudly claimed, “I am a god! I sit on a throne of a god [in a city on an island] in the sea!” You boast that you are a god; but you are only a man, not a god.
人子，你要向提洛的王子說：吾主上主這樣說：因為你心高氣傲地說：『我是神，我在海心坐在神位上。』其實，你只是人，而不是神，你心中卻自以為是神。
3 [You think that] you are wiser than Daniel was, [and you think that] you can understand every secret.
看，至於明智，你勝過達尼爾，任何秘密都不能隱瞞你。
4 By being wise and understanding [a lot], you have become [very] rich; you have acquired much gold and silver for your treasuries.
你憑你的智慧和聰明發了財，把金銀儲滿你寶庫。
5 [Yes, it is true that] by trading wisely, you have been enabled to become very rich, and because you are rich, you have become very proud.
你在貿易上憑你的豐富智慧，不斷增加你的財富；因你的財富，你便心高氣傲，
6 Therefore, this is what Yahweh the Lord says: “Because you think that you are as wise as a god,
為此吾主上主這樣說：因為你心中自以為是神，
7 I will [now] bring a foreign [army] to attack your [country], an army that causes other nations to be terrified. They will pull out their swords to strike you, [you who think that] [IRO] you have marvelous/great wisdom, and they will destroy all your beautiful things.
為此，看我要率領外方人，即列國最蠻橫的人來攻打你，他們要拔出劍來攻擊你以智慧所得的美麗，玷污你的光華，
8 They will bring you down to your grave; you will die violently like [MET] those who died in the sea.
將你拋入深淵，使你在海中遭受慘死。
9 Then you will certainly not [RHQ] say to those who are killing you, 'I am a god!' [because they will know that] you are not a god; you are only a man.
在殺戮你的面前，你還敢說『我是神』嗎﹖在擊殺你的人手中，你只是人，而不是神。
10 You will die like other people who are unacceptable to me die, killed by foreigners.” [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.’”
你必在外方人手中死去，像未受割損的人死去一樣：這是我，上主說的──吾主上主的斷語。」
11 Yahweh also gave me this message:
上主的話傳給我說：「
12 “You human, sing a sad/funeral song about the king of Tyre. Say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: [“You thought that] [IRO] you were completely perfect, extremely wise and handsome.
人子，你要為提洛的王子唱哀歌，哀悼他說：吾主上主這樣說：你原是一個完美的的模型，滿備智慧，十分美觀。
13 You [had a wonderful life, as though] you were in my [beautiful] garden in Eden. Your [clothes] were decorated with many [HYP] kinds of very valuable stones— ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, turquoise, and beryl [stones]. Those stones were set/placed in gold [mountings]. They were prepared for you on the day that you were born.
你曾住在「伊甸」──天主的樂園內，有各種寶石作你的服飾，如赤玉、青玉、金鋼石、橄欖玉、紅瑪瑙、水蒼玉、藍玉、紫寶石、翡翠；衣邊和繡花是用金做的，在你受造的那天，都已準備好了。
14 I appointed [DOU] you to be like [MET] a strong angel to guard the people. [It was as though I put] you on my holy mountain, and you walked among fiery stones.
我曾立你為革魯賓，作光耀的守衛，在天主的聖山上，在烈火的石中往來。
15 You were completely good in all that you did, from the day that you were created/born, until you [started to] do wicked things.
從你受造之日起，你的行為原是齊全的，直到你犯了罪之時。
16 [Then] you became busy trading things, and you started to act violently, and you sinned. So I caused you to be disgraced; and the angel who was guarding you forced you to leave my holy mountain, forced you to leave your place among those fiery stones.
因你生意興隆，你就充滿了欺壓，犯了重罪，因此我從天主的山上將你趕走，從烈火石中將你這作守衛的革魯賓剷除。
17 You were extremely proud because you were very handsome. Because you loved beautiful things, you did things that wise people do not do. [So] I threw you to the ground, and allowed [other] kings who saw you to laugh at you.
你因美麗而心高氣傲，為了你的光耀，你失去了智慧，所以我要把你拋在地上，叫你在列王面前出醜。
18 By committing many sins and by trading things dishonestly, you caused your places of worship to become unacceptable to me. So I caused a fire [to burn down your city]. [Your city] was burned completely; the people who were watching it saw that only ashes remained on the ground.
因你罪過眾多，因你經商不公，褻瀆了你的聖所，所以我要使火由你中間冒出，將你燒毀，在眾目昭彰之下，使你成為地上的塵埃。
19 All the people who knew what your [city was like previously] were appalled. Now [your city] has disappeared, and it will not exist any more.”’”
萬民中凡認識你的，都因你而驚駭。你將成為恐怖的對象，且永遠不復存在。」
20 [Then] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said],
上主的話傳給我說：「
21 “You human, turn toward Sidon [city], and declare the terrible things that will happen to it.
人子，你應面向漆冬，講預言攻擊她，
22 Give [the people of Sidon] this message from [me], Yahweh the Lord: ‘I am your enemy, [you people of] Sidon, and by what I do to you, I will reveal that I am very great/glorious. When I punish you and reveal that I am holy, everyone who is watching that will know that it is I, Yahweh, [who have the power to do what I say that I will do].
對她說：吾主上主這樣說：漆冬，看，我要攻擊你，在你中間受光榮；當我對她施行懲罰，對她顯示我的聖善時，他們必承認我是上主。
23 I will send a plague upon you, and I will send [enemies to come and] kill [MTY] you in your streets. They will attack you from every direction, and your people will be slaughtered inside the walls of your city. Then everyone will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'
我要在她境內散發瘟疫，使血傾流在街市上，刀劍由四周向她襲擊，傷亡的人橫臥在她中間：這樣，他們必承認我是上主。
24 No longer will those who live near you people of Israel [hurt you] like [MET] painful briers and sharp thorns [hurt people]. And then the Israeli people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
以色列的四鄰中，為以色列家族再沒有刺人的荊棘和惱人的蒺藜，敢於輕視他們：這樣，他們必承認我是上主。」
25 And this is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “Some day the people of Israel will live in their own land [again], the land that I gave to Jacob, who [also] served me. I will gather them from [distant] countries where I have scattered them. And I will reveal to the nations that I am holy among my people.
吾主上主這樣說：「當我把分散在各民族中的以色列家族聚集起來時，我要在異民前，在他們身上顯示為聖：他們要住在我所賜予我僕人雅各伯的地域內。
26 My people will live safely in Israel; they will build houses and plant vineyards. And when I punish the nearby nations that despised them, they will know that it is I, Yahweh their God, [who has done it].”
他們要安全地住在那裏，建造房屋，栽植葡萄園；當我向一般輕視過他們的四鄰施行懲罰時，他們必平安地住在那裏。那麼他們必承認我，上主，是他們的天主。」
