< Ezekiel 16 >

1 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
耶和華的話又臨到我說:
2 Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
「人子啊,你要使耶路撒冷知道她那些可憎的事,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD to Jerusalem; Thy birth and thy nativity is of the land of Canaan; thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother an Hittite.
說主耶和華對耶路撒冷如此說:你根本,你出世,是在迦南地;你父親是亞摩利人,你母親是赫人。
4 And as for thy nativity, in the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed in water to cleanse thee; thou wast not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
論到你出世的景況,在你初生的日子沒有為你斷臍帶,也沒有用水洗你,使你潔淨,絲毫沒有撒鹽在你身上,也沒有用布裹你。
5 No eye pitied thee, to do any of these to thee, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out in the open field, to the lothing of thy person, in the day that thou wast born.
誰的眼也不可憐你,為你做一件這樣的事憐恤你;但你初生的日子扔在田野,是因你被厭惡。
6 And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in thy own blood, I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live; yea, I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live.
「我從你旁邊經過,見你滾在血中,就對你說:你雖在血中,仍可存活;你雖在血中,仍可存活。
7 I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field, and thou hast increased and become great, and thou art come to excellent ornaments: thy breasts are fashioned, and thy hair is grown, though thou wast naked and bare.
我使你生長好像田間所長的,你就漸漸長大,以致極其俊美,兩乳成形,頭髮長成,你卻仍然赤身露體。
8 Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I swore to thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.
「我從你旁邊經過,看見你的時候正動愛情,便用衣襟搭在你身上,遮蓋你的赤體;又向你起誓,與你結盟,你就歸於我。這是主耶和華說的。
9 Then I washed thee with water; yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
那時我用水洗你,洗淨你身上的血,又用油抹你。
10 I clothed thee also with embroidered work, and shod thee with badgers’ skin, and I girded thee with fine linen, and I covered thee with silk.
我也使你身穿繡花衣服,腳穿海狗皮鞋,並用細麻布給你束腰,用絲綢為衣披在你身上,
11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.
又用妝飾打扮你,將鐲子戴在你手上,將金鍊戴在你項上。
12 And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.
我也將環子戴在你鼻子上,將耳環戴在你耳朵上,將華冠戴在你頭上。
13 Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and embroidered work; thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil: and thou wast exceeding beautiful, and thou didst prosper into a kingdom.
這樣,你就有金銀的妝飾,穿的是細麻衣和絲綢,並繡花衣;吃的是細麵、蜂蜜,並油。你也極其美貌,發達到王后的尊榮。
14 And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord GOD.
你美貌的名聲傳在列邦中,你十分美貌,是因我加在你身上的威榮。這是主耶和華說的。
15 But thou didst trust in thy own beauty, and didst play the harlot because of thy renown, and didst pour out thy harlotries on every one that passed by; his it was.
「只是你仗着自己的美貌,又因你的名聲就行邪淫。你縱情淫亂,使過路的任意而行。
16 And of thy garments thou didst take, and didst deck thy high places with various colours, and didst play the harlot upon them: the like things shall not come, neither shall it be so.
你用衣服為自己在高處結彩,在其上行邪淫。這樣的事將來必沒有,也必不再行了。
17 Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and hast made to thyself images of men, and hast committed harlotry with them,
你又將我所給你那華美的金銀、寶器為自己製造人像,與他行邪淫;
18 And hast taken thy embroidered garments, and didst cover them: and thou hast set my oil and my incense before them.
又用你的繡花衣服給他披上,並將我的膏油和香料擺在他跟前;
19 My food also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey, with which I fed thee, thou hast even set before them for a sweet savour: and thus it was, saith the Lord GOD.
又將我賜給你的食物,就是我賜給你吃的細麵、油,和蜂蜜,都擺在他跟前為馨香的供物。這是主耶和華說的。
20 Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me, and these hast thou sacrificed to them to be devoured. Is this of thy harlotries a small matter,
並且你將給我所生的兒女焚獻給他。
21 That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them?
你行淫亂豈是小事,竟將我的兒女殺了,使他們經火歸與他嗎?
22 And in all thy abominations and thy harlotries thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, and wast polluted in thy blood.
你行這一切可憎和淫亂的事,並未追念你幼年赤身露體滾在血中的日子。」
23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness, woe, ( woe to thee! saith the Lord GOD; )
「你行這一切惡事之後(主耶和華說:你有禍了!有禍了!)
24 That thou hast also built to thee an eminent place, and hast made thee an high place in every street.
又為自己建造圓頂花樓,在各街上做了高臺。
25 Thou hast built thy high place at every head of the way, and hast made thy beauty to be abhorred, and hast offered thyself to every one that passed by, and multiplied thy harlotries.
你在一切市口上建造高臺,使你的美貌變為可憎的,又與一切過路的多行淫亂。
26 Thou hast also committed harlotry with the Egyptians thy neighbours, great of flesh; and hast multiplied thy harlotry, to provoke me to anger.
你也和你鄰邦放縱情慾的埃及人行淫,加增你的淫亂,惹我發怒。
27 Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have diminished thy ordinary food, and delivered thee to the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of thy lewd way.
因此我伸手攻擊你,減少你應用的糧食,又將你交給恨你的非利士眾女,使她們任意待你。她們見你的淫行,為你羞恥。
28 Thou hast played the harlot also with the Assyrians, because thou wast not satisfied; yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.
你因貪色無厭,又與亞述人行淫,與他們行淫之後,仍不滿意,
29 Thou hast moreover multiplied thy harlotry in the land of Canaan to Chaldea; and yet with this thou wast not satisfied.
並且多行淫亂,直到那貿易之地,就是迦勒底,你仍不滿意。
30 How weak is thy heart, saith the Lord GOD, seeing thou doest all these things, the work of an imperious harlot;
「主耶和華說:你行這一切事,都是不知羞恥妓女所行的,可見你的心是何等懦弱!
31 In that thou buildest thy eminent place in the head of every way, and makest thy high place in every street; and hast not been as an harlot, in that thou scornest hire;
因你在一切市口上建造圓頂花樓,在各街上做了高臺,你卻藐視賞賜,不像妓女。
32 But as a wife that committeth adultery, who taketh strangers instead of her husband!
哎!你這行淫的妻啊,寧肯接外人,不接丈夫。
33 They give gifts to all harlots: but thou givest thy gifts to all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may come to thee on every side for thy harlotry.
凡妓女是得人贈送,你反倒贈送你所愛的人,賄賂他們從四圍來與你行淫。
34 And thou art the opposite from other women in thy harlotries, though none followeth thee to commit harlotries: and in that thou givest a reward, and no reward is given to thee, therefore thou art the opposite.
你行淫與別的婦女相反,因為不是人從你行淫;你既贈送人,人並不贈送你;所以你與別的婦女相反。」
35 Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD:
「你這妓女啊,要聽耶和華的話。
36 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness uncovered through thy harlotries with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which thou didst give to them;
主耶和華如此說:因你的污穢傾洩了,你與你所愛的行淫露出下體,又因你拜一切可憎的偶像,流兒女的血獻給他,
37 Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I will even gather them on every side against thee, and will uncover thy nakedness to them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
我就要將你一切相歡相愛的和你一切所恨的都聚集來,從四圍攻擊你;又將你的下體露出,使他們看盡了。
38 And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.
我也要審判你,好像官長審判淫婦和流人血的婦女一樣。我因忿怒忌恨,使流血的罪歸到你身上。
39 And I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thy eminent place, and shall break down thy high places: they shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels, and leave thee naked and bare.
我又要將你交在他們手中;他們必拆毀你的圓頂花樓,毀壞你的高臺,剝去你的衣服,奪取你的華美寶器,留下你赤身露體。
40 They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords.
他們也必帶多人來攻擊你,用石頭打死你,用刀劍刺透你,
41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou also shalt give no hire any more.
用火焚燒你的房屋,在許多婦人眼前向你施行審判。我必使你不再行淫,也不再贈送與人。
42 So will I make my fury toward thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.
這樣,我就止息向你發的忿怒,我的忌恨也要離開你,我要安靜不再惱怒。
43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things; behold, therefore I also will recompense thy way upon thy head, saith the Lord GOD: and thou shalt not commit this lewdness above all thy abominations.
因你不追念你幼年的日子,在這一切的事上向我發烈怒,所以我必照你所行的報應在你頭上,你就不再貪淫,行那一切可憎的事。這是主耶和華說的。」
44 Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use this proverb against thee, saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter.
「凡說俗語的必用俗語攻擊你,說:『母親怎樣,女兒也怎樣。』
45 Thou art thy mother’s daughter, that lotheth her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who lothed their husbands and their children: your mother was an Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
你正是你母親的女兒,厭棄丈夫和兒女;你正是你姊妹的姊妹,厭棄丈夫和兒女。你母親是赫人,你父親是亞摩利人。
46 And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
你的姊姊是撒馬利亞,她和她的眾女住在你左邊;你的妹妹是所多瑪,她和她的眾女住在你右邊。
47 Yet hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done after their abominations: but, as if that were a very little thing, thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways.
你沒有效法她們的行為,也沒有照她們可憎的事去做,你以那為小事,你一切所行的倒比她們更壞。
48 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters.
主耶和華說:我指着我的永生起誓,你妹妹所多瑪與她的眾女尚未行你和你眾女所行的事。
49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
看哪,你妹妹所多瑪的罪孽是這樣:她和她的眾女都心驕氣傲,糧食飽足,大享安逸,並沒有扶助困苦和窮乏人的手。
50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.
她們狂傲,在我面前行可憎的事,我看見便將她們除掉。
51 Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thy abominations more than they, and hast justified thy sisters in all thy abominations which thou hast done.
撒馬利亞沒有犯你一半的罪,你行可憎的事比她更多,使你的姊妹因你所行一切可憎的事,倒顯為義。
52 Thou also, who hast judged thy sisters, bear thy own shame for thy sins that thou hast committed more abominable than they: they are more righteous than thou: yea, be thou confounded also, and bear thy shame, in that thou hast justified thy sisters.
你既斷定你姊妹為義,就要擔當自己的羞辱;因你所犯的罪比她們更為可憎,她們就比你更顯為義;你既使你的姊妹顯為義,你就要抱愧擔當自己的羞辱。」
53 When I shall bring again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, then will I bring again the captivity of thy captives in the midst of them:
「我必叫她們被擄的歸回,就是叫所多瑪和她的眾女,撒馬利亞和她的眾女,並你們中間被擄的,都要歸回,
54 That thou mayest bear thy own shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, in that thou art a comfort to them.
好使你擔當自己的羞辱,並因你一切所行的使她們得安慰,你就抱愧。
55 When thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former state, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former state, then thou and thy daughters shall return to your former state.
你的妹妹所多瑪和她的眾女必歸回原位;撒馬利亞和她的眾女,你和你的眾女,也必歸回原位。
56 For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride,
在你驕傲的日子,你的惡行沒有顯露以先,你的口就不提你的妹妹所多瑪。那受了凌辱的亞蘭眾女和亞蘭四圍非利士的眾女都恨惡你,藐視你。
57 Before thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of thy reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all that are around her, the daughters of the Philistines, who despise thee on every side.
58 Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thy abominations, saith the LORD.
耶和華說:你貪淫和可憎的事,你已經擔當了。」
59 For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even deal with thee as thou hast done, who hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
「主耶和華如此說:你這輕看誓言、背棄盟約的,我必照你所行的待你。
60 Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish to thee an everlasting covenant.
然而我要追念在你幼年時與你所立的約,也要與你立定永約。
61 Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.
你接待你姊姊和你妹妹的時候,你要追念你所行的,自覺慚愧;並且我要將她們賜你為女兒,卻不是按着前約。
62 And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD:
我要堅定與你所立的約(你就知道我是耶和華),
63 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any more because of thy shame, when I am pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord GOD.
好使你在我赦免你一切所行的時候,心裏追念,自覺抱愧,又因你的羞辱就不再開口。這是主耶和華說的。」
